Was up guys. So for the questions the dreams in the beginning will answer them for the most part. Of course I want you to figure it out on your own so ill try my best to convey what it is my head to the story. =) oh, and there will be OC. The explanation of how firearms work in the world will be at the end.
Again don't own Naruto at all.
Naruto opened his eyes to see a man in black clothes carrying him in his arms. He panicked, and started to struggle against the hold the unknown man had on him. He looked behind the man to see another one following, and behind him his mother. She looked angry and ready to kill.
"Damn it the kid woke up, and Houjou didn't keep her busy long enough. Sogo time for plan B" the mysterious man ordered the one behind them.
Naruto watched the man that was following stop, and ready attack his mother. He screamed for his mother, and struggled to get free. His struggle was all in vain after all a two year old could never beat a full grown person in terms of strength. He could only struggle, and watch as his mother got farther away. After losing sight of his mother Naruto stopped struggling, and began to cry.
"shut up child, or I'll go back to kill your mother. We've already lost a couple of comrades in this mission. Ill be damned if it fails Because of you." the cold mans voice rang in Naruto's head
'Kill? My mom?' He stopped crying, and just hung there in the mans arms, and let his tears silently fall from his eyes. After running for what felt like ten minutes the man stopped.
"Okay it should be around here somewhere" the man tied up Naruto and began knocking on trees. On the third tree he knocked on made a weird sound. He stabbed the tree with his blade to take a huge piece off. In the tree there was a box along with some seals, and supplies. What scared Naruto the most is that the box was about his size.
"NARUTO!" Kushina's voice echoed through the forest.
"MO..." The black clothed man leaped at the child to cover his mouth before he could yell.
"Shit, what the hell is she? She's not that far away. I have to get him ready before she shows up" The man started by injecting Naruto with a sedative. It was a slow acting drug for fear of a stronger one being to much for a child. He removed his hand from Naruto's mouth to see if the drug was working. Not being able to talk, or yell he tried to move. Only being able to squirm didn't help much, but eventually losing that movement as well. He was picked up and placed inside the box, and before the man put the lid on he said one last thing to Naruto.
"For what it's worth kid. I'm really sorry."
Naruto watched as as the lid was placed, and the last bit of sunlight was scuffed out by the darkness. As he lost consciousness the only though in his mind..'mom please help me. I'm scared'
...
"Alright guys! It's time to go!" Naruto was always this enthusiastic about a mission. All but Shikimaru were wide awake ready to take on the troubles that lay ahead. They all began walking with Naruto taking the lead for now.
"you know maybe if you weren't late we would have actually have left on time" Sakura had a pet peeve over people being late. "I though you said you were mature now?"
"Come on Sakura-chan give me a break I had a scary dream last night so it threw off my day"
"yeah what kind of dream was it then?" Legitimately interested, because if it could frighten Konoha's Knucklehead then it must be pretty scary.
"well I rather not talk about it honestly" he chuckled, and hoped she would not pry any further.
"Well I guess" she responded
The rest of the squad was behind them enjoying the little exchange that their leader and the pink haired girl were having.
After walking for three days they arrived at their destination. Getting there Naruto sent Neji to scout out the camp with his byakugan while the rest set up a camp a good distance from their target.
After Neji got back from scouting they decided to eat. Their tents were set up around a fire with a tea pot hanging on top of it. Naruto took out his instant ramen, and poured some of the hot water into the cup. He placed his food on the ground and began to wait the three long minutes it takes for it to be ready. "alright guys, while we are here let's take inventory, and plan out our strategy."
They all put their firearms near the light of the fire to show the weapons they had brought.
Neji brought a sniper rifle. It had a dark wood finish, and a medium range scope. Kiba on the other hand brought a shotgun a great close quarter combat weapon. It was a pump action with a dark wood finish as well with a special stock to reduce the recoil impact. Naruto brought the standard issue rifle that Konoha had ever since they have perfected the method of making them. It was a semiautomatic rifle with an eight round clip. Both Ino and Sakura brought a rifle similar to Naruto's, a bit smaller, but fires the same ammo. Shikamaru did not bring anything that big all he had was two pistols different than the standard issued one that everyone else had. The pistol was an all black metal frame with wooden pistol grips.
"Neji what is the layout of the camp?" Naruto's speech mannerism changed from goof ball to 'I am in command' surprisingly quick. Neji, shocked, needed a moment to realize he was talking to him.
"...There are four buildings on each corner of a center one, and the compound is surrounded by a three meter high fence all around with guards that switch every two hours. I counted around 22 men 10 which are always armed at a time."
"Can we confirm if civilians are in the camp?"
"hai. I can confirm that they are locked in a cage in the North/West building. There is also a weapons cache in the South/East building, and their leader sleeps in the North/East one. The South/West building has the valuables from the caravans. The center one is the barracks, and dinning area."
"Alright, we'll split up into two teams A-team, and B-team. first priority is the people that are kidnapped. A-team will free them while B-team escorts them out. On the way out A-team will place explosive tags around the compound, and Take the leader alive in his sleep. We will then begin the attack after the VIP is in custody." everyone was sitting around the fire impressed with Naruto's commanding attitude and voice they though he never had."Shikamaru any ideas?" He asked the the pineapple shaped hair man
"yeah, you should concentrate most of those bombs in the armory to keep the caravans stuff safe, and taking out their weapons then we'll just have to deal with ten armed enemies. Neji will cover us when we extract the civilians so you guys can go get the VIP when the prisoners are free. After placing the bombs take cover in the storage room where they keep their stolen goods with the VIP. When the bombs go off A-team can take out any enemy inside the compound that should be in panic. While Neji, in a high ground position, can take out any runaways. Sakura and I can stay with the civilians to heal, and protect them until its all over. How's it sound?"
"Perfect It will split us off evenly. Shikamaru will lead B-Team which will be Neji, Shikamaru, and Sakura-chan, and A-Team will be myself, Kiba, and Ino-chan. When its over we will drop off the civilians at a nearby village. As for our VIP, Ino can you interrogate him?"
"I can see what I can get out of him, but we have a better chance back home" Ino quickly responded.
"Great, so right now lets eat and get some rest we will be switching lookouts every four hours Kiba, Ino, and I will take first watch. Pump* your ammo, and vests just in case" with that everyone took their gear, and started to eat their provisions. After their meal everyone pumped chakra into their magazines and vest then went to sleep, or got into their position.
...
Three hours into the watch Ino decided to have a chat with Naruto. She walked up, and leaned on the tree that Naruto had chosen to perch up on. "I didn't know you had such a commanding voice Naruto" She looked up at him
"when it comes down to a mission I don't have much of a choice" he rubbed the back of his head. "Pervy-sage kinda beat it into me. 'if you are a leader you are responsible for your teammates lives, and lives are not to be taken as a joke' you know he told me while he was peeping on some girls." Naruto laughed at the memory.
"How is Jiraiya-sama anyways?" Ino though it was weird that she hasn't seen him around Naruto at all.
"After he came back from reporting in, and told me that Baa-chan wanted me to go on a mission he said he was going to the hospital to get his wounds checked before he left on his own mission. I haven't heard from him yet, but he's Pervy-sage he can take care of himself. It'll be an insult if his student worried for his sensei. " He was used to Jiraiya leaving him alone for days at a time. He was Konoha's eyes, and ears outside the village after all.
"You sure have grown Naruto. Not just physically either I mean even your whole demeanor has changed" She didn't notice it before, but since he's been back she has been looking up to him. Not in height more like in respect. She just couldn't help it. She was sure the rest of the group was the same.
"You think so? I feel like I'm still the same as before. Just way Stronger" He smirked
"yeah buuutt, you have this commanding warm attitude now. I mean before everyone saw you as goof ball, dead last, an idiot, rash, thick headed, slow, du..."
"I think I get it Ino" Naruto replied with a deadpan look on his face.
"But you always had your never give up attitude. Even after the exams, and everything with Sasuke everyone kinda looked to you for that reason. 'If he doesn't give up neither can I' was what we all thought, and it gave them the fire they needed" She remembered when they came back from their fight for Sasuke. They were battered, and beaten. Instead of giving up he just kept saying 'I always keep my promises this one is no different either I convince him, or I brake his legs one way or another hes coming back' "Now look at the way the team just sat in awe of you taking command like you did. An approachable leader with a strong sense justice your Hokage material for sure. Everyone is going to be so surprised when they see you. You know maybe if Sakura saw more of that she'll end up falling for you" Not expecting a statement like that Naruto visibly blushed. Satisfied in his reaction she got up and started walking away "I'll get back to my patrols see you in about an hour"
"Damn it she didn't even give me a chance to retaliate." Well not that he had anything to retaliate with anyways.
Five minutes before it was time to switch he felt someone approaching him."What's up Neji?" Neji emerged from the shadows of the trees.
"I'm glad to see you have gotten more perceptive Naruto-kun." Neji was really impressed because he was really trying to fully hide his presence from him. " I need to speak to you about something weird I saw in the armory. Well its something I didn't see actually." Naruto was now interested the byakugan could see through everything. "There was a large box on the top of one of the crates that I could not see in it. All I could see were the weird seals covering the box. Is there anyway we could retrieve it?"
"Hard to imagine that there is something that your eyes can't see through Kinda unsettling. I'll seal it in a scroll to bring it home." It actually worried Naruto that someone could produce a seal that could do that. " I will give it to the Hokage when we give our reports. Hopefully we can analyze it, and see just what it is. By the way you know you're my senior you could have just told me to bring the box?"
" I am aware of that, but for some reason I felt like I needed your approval on this. You are the leader of this mission after all." Neji responded
"Guys its your turn to sleep!" Sakura yelled subtly at both the men.
Naruto jumped down from the tree and started to walk toward the camp along with Neji. Laying down his sleeping bag in one of the tents around the fire. He began to wonder what was in that box that was so important that it had to be byakugan proof. More importantly who in the world has the means to create such a seal. Hopefully bringing the box, and seals intact will bring some answers.
"Those bandits don't know what they're in for. Believe it"

All Firearms Will Be From the WWII Era Or Before. I should put that in the
*Now the way I have the firearms working in the story is that they have to pump chakra into the rounds to make them usable. Vest are alike for them to be able to defend from the incoming rounds they need chakra to work. Its like the chakra blades, but instead of cutting it fortifies the steel. The chakra also dissipates over time so if its a long firefight they need to keep pumping chakra into their equipment. If you have any questions about it you can DM me, or leave a review ill try to respond a soon as I have time.
I hope you guys are liking my story. I have been wanting to write this for a while :)
