I own nothing from Naruto. Hazel Marie is my own.
Please Read and Review
As Hazel Marie Sanchez was lead into a large town, she noticed several people running across the roof tops, keeping just ahead of her and the man known as Kakashi. Also when she looked around, she saw two behind her walking through the crowd. All four of them wore similar uniforms to the four she saw when she first woke up in this strange world.
Villagers stopped walking around as they saw her and backed away from the middle of the road and stared as she was lead through. It became unusually quiet and Hazel Marie was unnerved by it. By the time that they were deep into the village, there was a clear path on the road all the way to a large red two story building in the distance that was against the cliff wall. She looked up and blinked in surprise seeing five heads carved into the face of it.
"Intriguing artwork," Hazel Marie spoke, keeping her voice neutral. "Your stonecutters have a talent."
"Those are our past leaders and our current leader, the Hokage's of the Fire Nation. There are five Kages, one for each of the five great nations," the silver-haired man replied as he walked just a couple paces ahead of her.
"Your village is unsettled," she spoke as she continued looking at different faces of the villagers as they passed.
"They see a female with unfamiliar weapons being lead through the village by a Jounin and four ANBU Black Ops, of course they are going to be unsettled," he laughed as he turned to look at her with his only visible eye.
"Kakashi!" a boyish voice came through the quiet village and Kakashi stopped, making Hazel Marie stop as well before she ran into him. A blond haired boy appeared in the street, grinning like an idiot. He looked about fourteen or fifteen and from where she stood, Hazel Marie knew he would be taller than her 4'10'' form. "I'm back from my training!"
"Well he seems like a ball of joy," Hazel Marie muttered and heard Kakashi chuckle quietly.
"He is a hyper-active student of mine," he replied quietly. "How was your training with Jiraiya?"
"It was great, I have definitely gotten stronger," the blond grinned while holding out a small brown-wrapped rectangular thing, it looked oddly in the shape of a book. "Pervy-sage wanted me to give you this. Why is the village so quiet…? Who is she…?"
"That is yet to be seen," Kakashi replied as he took the wrapped package and put it into a pocket. "I have to take her to Lade Tsunade, I'll see you later."
"Okay," the young man smiled before disappearing almost instantly.
"Man, you people really make me jealous, being able to get places so fast," Hazel Marie whined as she flexed her aching hands, wanting to hold her gun from being unnerved by the village. "Can we keep going? I'm starting to get really twitchy and I promised I wouldn't touch my weapons while you decide if I'm trustworthy or not."
"Of course."
They continued walking, their pace quicker than before and soon, they entered the red building at the end of the main road. Once inside, the two men who had been following from the rooftops appeared and stayed in front of Hazel Marie and the two that had been behind her closed in so Hazel Marie was surrounded by four men giving her less than a foot of space around her. They headed down a hallway and up a set of stairs to the second floor and then stopped outside a door. Kakashi knocked on it before entering, signaling for us to remain where we were.
Tsunade groaned as she saw Shizune set another stack of papers onto her desk before stepping back, smiling sympathetically. Giving the stack one more glance, she opened the bottom drawer of her desk and pulled out her Sake and took a giant gulp of it. She looked over at her assistant as she stood silently, shaking her head, and internally smirked as Shizune finally gave up complaining on her drinking for the day. That disappeared though as soon as there was a knock on the door and Kakashi entered, his visible eye showing no emotion.
"What has happened?" Tsunade knew that look all too well.
"There was a meteor earlier today and ANBU found something unusual in the crater," he spoke quietly as he stood near the door.
"It is not like you to take so long to just say something Kakashi, what is it? What did they find?"
"A girl… armed with weapons that we have never seen or heard of before."
"A girl…? In the middle of a meteor crater?"
"Where are these weapons of hers?" Shizune asked and Tsunade frowned and scanned Kakashi, but didn't see any new weapons or anything on him.
"She still has them on her, but has promised not to use them on anyone. She said that it would do us more harm than good if we took these unfamiliar weapons since we have never seen them before and don't know how to use them. She is outside the door with four ANBU. Also, she has no idea what Chakra is, where she is at, or anything it seems like about the five nations."
"You truly believe she won't hurt us?" Shizune frowned.
"She agreed to be brought up to you and promised not to attack anyone with her weapons unless they were a threat to everyone. Also, on the way here she wanted to hold or even touch her weapons because she was nervous but didn't because she promised."
"Bring her in," Tsunade sighed as she gulped down another glass of Sake.
Kakashi nodded before opening the door and stood back as two ANBU entered the room before a small female entered the room, followed by two more ANBU. She stood in the middle of the room, hands away from her body, palms facing Tsunade and legs were at a shoulder width stance. She had a black rod of sorts on a strap around her neck and wore a tan vest that looked similar to jounin vests except the pockets were much bulkier. Strapped to her belt on her left hip and leg was a holster of sorts with another black thing that looked like an 'L.'
"I am one of the three Legendary Sanin and the Godaime Hokage of the Fire Nation. I am Tsunade," Tsunade spoke as she took another sip of Sake as she got to her feet and walked forward to stand about five feet in front of the strange girl who was shorter than her by about a half a foot. "Who are you?"
"Sergeant Hazel Marie Sanchez of the United States Army Reserves, Ma'am," the girl replied, lowering her head as if bowing formally. "Age is 23 and I have been in the US military for five years, and was at war for two years before I was captured and thrown off a seven story building and ended up here somehow. It seems crazy still, even to me, but I think I am not in the same world I was born in, nor the same universe. My people were beyond kunai and katana, our weaponry is far more advanced."
"Yes, Kakashi informed us that is the reason you still carry your strange weapons," Tsunade eyed the girl's black rod like weapon strapped around her neck.
"They are called firearms, or guns." She raised her arms and lifted the strap off her neck and grabbed one end of the tool only to stop as all four ANBU drew their weapons and pointed it at her. "Really? I promised not to hurt anyone. I was just going to explain how they work."
No one moved a muscle. Kakashi was tense and Tsunade stood confused as Shizune stood in between Tsunade and the girl. She kept her grip of the strap but let go of the weapon and moved her hand away from the weapon. The swords lowered away from her but were not sheathed.
"May I explain to you, Godaime Hokage, how my weapons work so you can learn to better trust me?" the girl tilted her head to the side to be able to look Tsunade in the eye.
"Yes," Tsunade nodded, curious. "ANBU, your services are not required at this time. Wait outside for further instruction."
"Yes, milady." All four men sheathed their blades and bowed before leaving the room.
"Continue Hazel Marie," Tsunade cleared her throat as she stepped to the side of Shizune.
"Guns, use projectiles like throwing knives, but they are small and are called bullets. They are fast and they can be deadly. They go through almost all kinds of armor and could easily enter and exit a body within seconds of being fired." Hazel Marie took a breath as she moved her hand back to her weapon and unclipped a small rectangular compartment to show everyone small cylinders stacked inside it. She clipped it back into place before putting the strap back around her neck. "This is called an AK-47 sniper rifle, better for long ranged attacks and can hit a target up to 400 meters away. My second and back-up guns are Browning Hi-Power hand-guns. They are a smaller version of my AK and work better for close range."
She pulled the 'L' shaped weapon out of her holster and held it in her hand, one finger in a hole under the top. She showed it before putting it back in its holster before lowering her hands back down to her side.
"Back-up guns… as in more than what we see? I only see two," Shizune frowned.
"My back-up guns are always hidden, a reserve incase my other two are lost or I run out of ammo. If it helps you be able to trust me better I'll show you," she smirked as she pulled her AK off from around her neck and took a step to the side and set it on the couch before unzipping her vest and setting it on top of her gun. She pulled off her coat, tossed it on the couch then pulled her long-sleeved top out of her pants and lifted it up and turned around so everyone could see the gun strapped to the middle of her back as well as the edge of one tucked into the back of her pants. "Other than these four, I carry an assortment of knives tucked into my boots and strapped to my forearms. That is all the weapons I carry."
"I don't think I've ever seen someone armed with so many weapons before," Shizune whispered.
"I was in the middle of fighting a war when I somehow arrived here. I don't know how, or why, but at this current moment, I don't feel like there is a way back for me. My squad probably thinks I'm dead since they abandoned me in a seven story building full of enemies. I don't know what is going to happen to me now…"
"Kakashi, what do you think?" Tsunade looked past the girl to the jounin standing behind her and he met her gaze. "What should we do with her?"
"There's only one thing we can do with someone like her," he shrugged and they both noticed that the girl tensed but did not move from she stood.
