"Congratulations everyone on passing the test!" Iruka-sensei said as he beamed at the assembled students.

Everyone cheered except for five people sitting in a corner.

"You nearly killed me last night." Hissed Yugito.

"How?" Naruto asked, blinking.

"I thought for sure that you were going to have to go through another year, and I would be stuck with your psychopathic mates." She replied quietly.

"I resent that." Hinata whispered, smiling lightly.

"I resent many things, you don't see me complaining." Yugito said, leaning into Gaara.

"Yes we do, often." Ino inserted.

The group suddenly realized that Iruka was going through the teams.

"Team Seven will be Uchiha Sasuke, Aburame Shino, and Haruno Sakura under Hatake Kakashi. Team Eight will be Inuzuka Kiba, Nara Shikamaru, and Akamichi Choji under Yuuhi Kurenai . Team Nine is still in Circulation from last year. Teams Ten, Eleven, and Twelve are still in circulation from two years ago, and Team Thirteen will be Yamanaka Ino, Hyuuga Hinata, Uzumaki Naruto, Nii Yugito, and Sabaku no Gaara under Miterashi Anko."

Sakura stopped her inner cheering about being on "Her Sasuke-kun's team" to look at Iruka in puzzlement.

"Ne, Sensei, why does Team Thirteen have five members?" The pink haired girl asked.

Iruka cleared his throat, "Well, Naruto, Ino, Hinata, Yugito, and Gaara have a special condition that requires them to be placed together on a team."

There were collective glances at the small corner, but almost immediately everyone stopped when the five's killing intent flared.

"Ahem, well…Everyone please wait here for your Sensei's." Iruka said, leaving.

The Jinchuuriki watched as all the teams left, until they were alone with Team Seven, then even they left.

"I'm….going…to kill our Sensei…"Muttered Gaara.

Yugito, having dropped the Genjutsu covering her ears and tails, stopped her grooming and looked up.

Naruto had the three foxtails he had gained when he had allowed Kyuubi to turn him into a full demon out, and Ino had the single tail she had recently gained unmasked, both had a set of animal ears perched on their head. Hinata's wings were being furled and unfurled as the normally quiet girl paced, her hair covering the points her ears had, and her ryuu tail was tucked in her jacket. Gaara had a single tail swishing, and his Tanuki Ears were flat on his head in annoyance.

"Calm." Yugito told her mate, nuzzling his ears, and Gaara reluctantly sat next to her and let her freshly groomed third tail intertwine with his.

Naruto smiled at the both of them, then looked at Ino and Hinata, who were still pacing and chasing their tail respectively.

"Why does that work for you?" He asked Yugito.

"Comes from having a naturally calmer mate." Yuugito said and began scratching Gaara's flat ears. Gaara visibly relaxed.

"I could take that as an insult and chase you up a tree." Ino said, stopping and glaring at the black haired girl.

"You could try, I have two more tails then you." Yuugito replied.

"Ino-chan, stop trying to bait Yu-neko." Hinata lightly chastised.

Naruto tipped his head slightly thinking hard, "…Should we be stupid around our new sensei?" He asked the group.

"If they're not trustworthy." Yugito responded and Ino shrugged.

"I dunno, we've built up reputations as Blonde blabbermouths, a shy Hyuuga Heiress, and two hell-bent monsters." Ino mused

"What you see isn't always what you get though, is it?" A cup on Iruka's desk asked rhetorically.

The genin jumped and stared at the cup, Yugito and Naruto got in between their mates and the cup.

The illusion disappeared to reveal a woman with purple hair and brown eyes.

"You brats are interesting, come on so we can do all…the introduction-y stuff I'm supposed to do." She said.

"Who are you?" Hissed Yugito, baring her fangs and claws threateningly.

The woman rolled her eyes, "I am your sensei, Miterashi Anko."

Ino, Hinata and Gaara relaxed slightly, but Naruto and Yugito didn't move.

"Come on, like I'd actually hate you for something as trivial as having tails." Anko rolled her eyes.

Naruto relaxed first and nodded at Yugito, who followed his lead reluctantly. All the other kids made a seal and a Genjutsu covered their tails, ears and claws, and in Hinata's case wings.

"Where to Sensei?" Asked Hinata with forced politeness.

"The Forest of Death." Said Anko.

"Oh joy, demons in the forest of death." Yugito muttered, Gaara elbowed her.

"Let's go!" Naruto said as they followed the crazy lady out.

….

Anko sat on a log and pulled a stick of Dango out of nowhere, causing her students to sweatdrop.

"Alright, tell me your name, likes, dislikes, umm…dreams for the future, Favorite animal and preferred weapon." Anko said, taking a bite off her Dango.

"Why don't you go first Sensei." Yugito pressed.

Anko sighed and thought for a minute, "Alright, My name is Miterashi Anko, likes are Dango….and fighting….Yeah that's it, and my dislikes are brats, traitors, and perverts. Dreams for the future are to kill my sensei, and not get you guys killed. My favorite animal is the snake. My favorite weapon's are kunai and summoned snakes. You're turn kitty cat."

Yugito glared at the name and bit her lip, then began, " My name is Nii Neko Yugito. My likes are my mate, and any mate I find in the future, and Amaya-kaasan and Nibi-kaasan…" Yugito blushed slightly, "And…cheesy ramen… My dislikes are people who judge on what they hear about a person, and not on how people really are, and those who would harm my mate. Dreams for the future…have kittens with my mate…My favorite animal…A cat obviously. I love all cats. My favorite weapon is a chain, even though I've only ever used one in the academy, and my element, which is shadows." Yugito nodded.

"Good, what about you Foxy-kun?"

"My name is Uzumaki Kitsune Naruto," Anko's eyebrow raised as she heard his middle name and related it to Yugito's, but continued munching her Dango, "My likes are my mates and learning new jutsu, and ramen. My dislikes are…Sasuke-teme, and people who judge based on rumors and assumptions, and people who look to harm my mates…and the three minutes it takes for Ramen to cook. My favorite animal, although I don't know why you asked, is a fox. My dreams for the future…maybe I'll be Hokage, but really I just want to live peacefully with my mates and have kits. My favorite weapons are a Katana, though I don't own one, and chakra weapons." Anko blinked and nodded, swallowing, she turned to Ino.

"Alright dog girl."

Ino glared at the name but shrugged, "My name is Yamanaka Inu Ino. My likes are Naruto-kun, who is my dominant, and Hinata-chan, who is my and Naruto-kun's mate, Yugito, who is my friend, and Gaara, who is also my friend. My dislikes are bigoted bastards and people who accept things at face value. My favorite animal, you can guess. My dreams for the future are to have kit's and pups for Naruto-kun and live in peace with him and Hinata-chan. My favorite weapon…well, as of now I don't have one."

Anko sighed, she'd have to work with Ino to find her weapon type, "Alright, Tanuki gaki, your turn."

Gaara slowly nodded, "My name is Sabaku no Gaara Tanuki. My likes are Yu-chan and my friends. My dislikes are too many to name. My dream for the future is to help Yu-chan find our other mates and live with them in safety. My favorite weapon is my sand. My favorite animal…if you can't guess you don't deserve to know…."

Anko did her best not to twitch, this one was a man of few words, "Alright, dragon girl."

Hinata took a steadying breath, "My name is Hyuuga Ryuu Hinata. My likes are Naruto-kun and Ino-chan. I like Gaara and Yugito, as well. My dislikes… are my family, and those who are too stupid to see past blind tolerance. My favorite animal…My dreams for the future are to have hatchlings and kits with Naruto-kun. My favorite weapon…water and fire."

Interesting. Although I wish they'd stop with the weird comments about the animal thing… Thought Anko, observing them all.

"Alright, we're going to do a quick exercise." Anko said, standing and clapping her hands. She held up three bells.

"You need to get these bells from me."

Gaara frowned, "There are only three bells."

"I know! You guys have to decide who doesn't pass the test! Those who fail will suffer terrible consequences." Anko nodded and gave a scary smile, "And, to get them, you have to come at me with the intent to kill."

The five Genin stared at Anko in surprise.

"Well?" Anko said, watching them.

"No, no, and no. It's plain and simple. I just won't." Hinata said, Planting her feet and glaring.

"What?" Anko asked in surprise.

"I won't do it." Hinata said again, still glaring.

"Me either, I refuse to participate in anything that would pit me against my mate and friends." Yugito agreed, Leaning against a tree.

Gaara shook his head and stood by Yugito.

Ino leaned her head on Hinata's shoulder and glared at Anko.

Anko looked at Naruto, who shrugged, "We'll just have to try again next year."

Anko stood and glared at them all with Killing Intent, which didn't faze them as Facing K.I. was apart of their training with their Demons.

"Stupid Kakashi…Stupid test…" Anko grumbled, rubbing the back of her head, "Alright then, you'll fight me, one on one, and if one of you doesn't pass then you all don't pass. Deal?"

The Jinchuuriki children exchanged glances before Yugito nodded to Naruto, deferring to him.

"Deal." Naruto nodded, "But Yugito and I reserve the right to step in and finish the fights in place of our mates if we feel you are going to too far."

Anko raised an eyebrow considering, then nodded, "Sounds fair, from what Old Man Sarutobi told me I'm surprised you didn't try to kill me at the mere thought of attacking your mates."

"This isn't a life or death situation." Naruto said and his eyes flashed red, "But if it were…you would be dead."

Anko smirked, "Don't be so sure Gaki. You may have beat Mizuki, but I can assure you Mizuki-teme is nothing compared to me."

Naruto nodded, but didn't take his eyes off of her.

"You first then?" Anko asked Naruto, "Then Kitty-cat over there."

Yugito bristled but Gaara placed a placating hand on her arm and Naruto nodded. Anko moved into a defensive position and sat back.

" Let's get wild." Naruto grinned and dropped to all fours, rushing Anko.

Anko dodged with ease, blocking Naruto's attacks and mentally dissecting his style. A small frown creased her face.

'His movements are awkward, but this style…' She scowled as realized what was wrong.

"Stop." She told him, straightening from her defensive stance, "This style…What's it called?"

Naruto crouched, watching her warily, "Kitsune Kata, Fox Dance."

"How long have you known it?"

"Since I was five…nearly my whole life."

"…That Genjutsu of yours affects your balance and style, doesn't it?" Anko demanded, her only answer was her students refusal to meet her eyes. "Drop it then."

As one the group tensed up.

"Listen…I'm going to be your Sensei. You need to trust me, and trust that the Hokage would not put someone who would hurt any of you, in charge of you."

As one the children looked at Hinata, who nodded. "She's not lying."

Naruto sighed and looked at Anko, "Fine Anko…sensei. If you decide to keep us as a team, there will be some things that you need to know about us…but until then." Naruto made a hand sign that Anko didn't recognize and dispelled his illusion. The other's followed suit.

"Excellent." Anko smirked and resumed her position, "Now, come at me."

Naruto grinned and launched himself at her.

'Much better.' Anko noted, ducking under a clawed hand, 'I may actually have to get this kid a Katana…this style is perfect for sword fighting.'

The fighting continued in that style for awhile, Naruto lunging and Anko dropping below his attacks. Finally her posture went from defensive to offensive and she decimated him in a matter of seconds.

Yugito went next and underwent the same treatment, first attacking then being attacked. Hinata followed, then Gaara, and finally Ino.

At last they all stood before Anko, exhausted and panting, but glowing with the light of a fight well fought.

Anko observed them lankly for a moment before grinning, " You all pass! Congratulations on officially becoming Team 13…now what did you need to tell me."

They all exchanged glances before sitting on the ground and arranging themselves comfortably. Yugito sat cross legged and placed Gaara's head in her lap, stroking his ears and regarding Anko curiously. Naruto kneeled and Hinata laid her head on his shoulder, Ino's head went in her lap.

"What do you know about us Anko-sensei? What have you heard from villagers and council members?" Yugito inquired.

Anko blinked, "Well, from what I've been told you two," She pointed to Naruto and Ino, "Are a pair of loudmouthed blondes without the common sense you were born with, Naruto is supposedly destined to either be Hokage or cannon fodder and Ino should become the next head of the interrogation unit. You," She pointed to Hinata, "are shy and innocent, an angel being corrupted by the demon brats and you will one day become the next Tsunade of medic nin." She looked at Gaara and Yugito, "Supposedly you two are blood thirsty maniacs and after you have outlived your usefulness on the battlefield the Hokage will have you assassinated; however, what I've seen from the Hokage and from your own actions, I don't think any of these assumptions are true…"

"I despise interrogation." Ino spoke up after a moment of silence, "I'm our team's medic nin..although it isn't my forte. The demon contained inside of me has influenced my bloodline so I'm a minor telekinetic."

"I tried healing once." Hinata offered, "Poor Ino-chan still has the scar. I think I'd like to do Interrogations and take over as head someday…if you don't mind Ino-chan?" Hinata glanced down with a soft smile at the smirking girl in her lap, "My Bloodline has been altered so that I can see lies on people…as well as intent in words. If someone says Naruto-kun's name in a normal tone of voice, but hates him, I will see the hate."

"I already mentioned that I may be Hokage one day, but I highly doubt I'll be cannon fodder. I'd never leave my mates unprotected like that." Naruto crossed his arms.

"I'm not bloodthirsty, I even know some medical jutsu." Gaara murmured, eyes closed as he leaned in closer to Yugito's stroking hands.

"I'm a little bloodthirsty." Yugito admitted, "But honestly I'd prefer to be at home, taking a nap with Gaara than killing people."

"We're demons." Naruto said bluntly, "Some people may try to argue that we're only half demons since we started out human, or the others did at least, but demon blood is dominant, you're all or nothing. This means that our tails show how much power we have, raw power only it doesn't measure skill. This means that our reflexes are enhanced beyond where any human could hope to achieve. Our instincts are different, too. A human will get angry when a loved one is hurt, but there is no forgiveness if you touch the mate of a demon. Yugito and I allow you to touch our mates when you are training us, but no one is allowed to touch them otherwise."

"Naruto does not touch Gaara-kun, I do not touch Hinata-chan or Ino-chan. Ino-chan and Hinata-chan may touch Gaara-kun, and vice versa because they are mated submissives. No matter how close we are we are not allowed to touch each other's mates." Yugito told Anko, trying to drive the point home.

Anko regarded them thoughtfully, "Hinata, Gaara, and Ino both call you Yugito-chan and Naruto-kun, and you refer to them as Ino-chan, Hinata-chan, and Gaara-kun, yet you just call each other Yugito and Naruto."

"We're dominants." Naruto said, vaguely confused.

"It's just how it's done." Yugito shrugged when Anko turned her gaze on the Neko.

"Well…I guess that's it then."

"…That's it?" Naruto asked in disbelief.

"Yep, and now the fun begins…" The way Anko smiled sent shivers down their backs, demons be damned this woman was terrifying.

Over the next few weeks Anko had each of her students training with weapons…and weights…

200 pounds to be exact, on each limb, and their first exercise as a team was to stand and walk home. Normally this would have killed them, but Anko had decided that as demons they wouldn't let die, and if they did then Anko was down a team and once again free to help out with Interrogation.

Needless to say it took a couple of days.

After that Anko found weapons for them.

Hinata was given a scythe, which scared her mates and friends half to death when she first fought with it and nearly executed Yugito while laughing manically.

Ino was enamored with a chain scythe that provided long range, as well as close range, attacks.

Naruto found a Katana that, when pumped with chakra, burst into flames and, he discovered, had a nice intimidation factor in a fight.

Yugito had found a long chain with sharpened links that she carried coiled at her belt at all times.

Gaara merely shaped his sand to create tri-pronged spear that he could disassemble and carry around easily.

Anko was happy with her team, and increased their weights by ten pounds every week, much to the dismay of aforementioned team.

They had gone on exactly 86 D-ranked missions, and were reporting in for their 87th.

The Sandaime Hokage smiled at the Genin who willingly handed Tora over to the Fire Lords wife.

"Yes…Kill it…kill it!" Yugito hissed, her green eyes narrowing at the animal.

"I thought you loved all cats?" Anko asked, looking at the Neko Youkai.

"I make exceptions." Yugito informed her calmly.

"Alright, the next available D-ranks that Team 13 can do are: Babysitting the council member's children, Painting a fence for Lankin-san's wife," A man came in and whispered to Sarutobi, who sighed, "Finding Tora the Cat…again…"

Naruto slammed his hands on the desk, "No! Enough of these D-ranks! We've done more than enough of them to get a C-rank! Please Oji-san!"

Sarutobi blinked at Naruto's outburst, "Well, we do have a C-rank that should work for a Genin team…Especially with your record, But taking on a C-rank mission is an important task, and requires a certain amount of maturity, by entrusting you…" Sarutobi looked at the Genin in front of him and almost cried.

"So I just snuck up on this gray-haired dude and picked his wallet, this book is really good. Especially the sex scenes, makes me want to write one…Makes Nibi want to write one too. It's been nonstop furry porn in my head for the past few days…"

Sarutobi cleared his throat and the Genin (and Anko who had stolen Yugito's orange book and was lightly flipping through the pages) looked at him "Did you hear anything I just said?"

"…Something about responsibility right?" Naruto asked.

Sarutobi sighed, "Why do I bother? Tazuna-san, please come in."

A grey haired man holding a sake bottle sauntered in.

"Heh, these brats are going to protect me? They all look weak, especially the Blonde boy and the green-eyed girl..."

Gaara sedately held Yugito back and Hinata tried to calm Naruto.

A kunai shattered Tazuna's sake bottle and the bridge builder found himself face to face with an angered Miterashi Anko.

"Trust me, my team is more than capable of protecting you, or killing you."

Tazuna opened his mouth to reply, but choked off when a kunai barely missed his 'Little friend'.

"Dammit Gaara! I almost got him!" Yugito cried in outrage.

Sarutobi hurriedly coughed to gain the attention of the homicidal Sensei and her team, "Team 13, Your mission is to protect Tazuna-san and make sure he completes his bridge safely."

Anko nodded and turned to her team, "Alright, the sooner we do this the better, I want you to pack using those sealing scrolls I gave you and be at the gate in one hour, keep your weapons out and don't be late." She disappeared in a swirl of leaves.

Each 13-year-old locked eyes, before disappearing in their own unique way.

Yugito was covered in Shadows.

Gaara disappeared in a swirl of sand.

Chakra swallowed Naruto.

Hinata simply shimmered out of existence.

Ino's eyes turned purple and she disappeared in a flash of light.

Tazuna looked at the aged Hokage in surprise, "…These ninja…"

"Will protect you with their lives Tazuna-san, now I suggest you get a move on as Anko-chan has a nasty habit of showing up early, and she's not the most patient woman in the world."

One hour later The team that had been dubbed by the village 'Ashi'(Evil) found Tazuna waiting at the gate with a paranoid look on his face.

"You wouldn't be lying about this mission ranking now would you Tazuna-san?" Asked Anko sweetly.

"N-no." Tazuna stuttered.

"Hey, dobe! What the hell are you doing here?" Demanded a cold voice.

Naruto gritted his teeth and looked at Sasuke, "Teme, I'm on a C-rank mission."

"NARUTO NO BAKA! DON'T SPEAK TO SASUKE-KUN LIKE THAT!" Shrieked Sakura.

Ino bristled, but to everyone's surprise it was Hinata who took action this time.

"Haruno-san, if you continue to speak to Naruto-kun in that manner I will be forced to incapacitate you."

Team Seven regarded the Hyuuga Heiress in stunned disbelief.

"…What are you idiots doing here anyway?" Yugito grumbled while Team Seven collected themselves.

"We're on a C-rank to do some personal thinks for the Fire Diamyo." Kakashi said as he sauntered up to his team.

Yugito covered Gaara's ears, appearing to press her hands to the top of his head, as Sakura let out a deafening scream.

"YOU'RE LATE!"

"Ne, I was walking down the road when an old lady asked me for help because her grandson had broken his leg-"

"LIAR!"

In the hospital an old woman and her grandson silently thanked the silver haired man who had gotten them there so fast.

Kakashi sighed, "Whatever, Let's go." Team Seven marched out the doors.

Yugito grinned and pulled her team in close, "That's the guy I stole the book from."

"Alright Brats! I'm here and we're heading out!" Anko said, appearing once again in a swirl of leaves.

"Hai Sensei." Team Ashi chanted and promptly fell into their strategic positions.

Naruto and Yugito took the front because of their sensitive noses, and because of the fact that they refused to let their mates be in the most direct line of fire.

Ino and Hinata took either side, since their hearing and Byakugan respectively made them good side guards.

Gaara and Anko took back positions because Gaara's sand was the most useful for rear defense and Anko needed to be in a position where she could survey and order counter attacks.

Tazuna stayed in the middle and vaguely wondered if he was going to survive this, Gato or no.

They set an easy pace as they walked, Naruto and Yugito talking quietly about things Kyuubi and Nibi

"Anko-sensei, we're gonna drop the genjutsu." Called Naruto.

"Alright, go ahead." Anko walked up a little so she was standing by Tazuna, "Tazuna-san, I must ask that what you see, you never repeat. My students are a little unique, but I am not at liberty to explain why. If they want you to know, then they will explain."

Anko dropped back again and The five Genin dropped the illusion covering their more animalistic features.

Naruto revealed five new golden kitsune tails.

Yuugito had an equal amount of pitch black neko tails.

Hinata showed three lilac colored ryuu tails and wings.

Ino's three inu tails wagged slightly.

Gaara's three tanuki tails swayed slightly behind him.

Tazuna tried to not have a heart attack.

Anko giggled like a child, before her eyes zeroed in on a puddle in the middle of the road ahead of them.

"Naruto, Yugito." Anko called.

"Yeah sensei?" Naruto asked.

"When was the last time it rained?"

"Couple of weeks ago…" Yugito's eyes hit the puddle and she froze.

Naruto followed her gaze and stopped next to her.

"Ino, Hinata!" Naruto yelled.

"Gaara!" Yugito added.

Each of the submissive Jinchuuriki brought their attention forward as two figures melted out of the puddle.

"Impressive-" The first one began.

"-for a bunch of midgets." The second continued and launched into an attack.

Two large chains tried to wrap around Anko (and Gaara because he was so close to her) but were intercepted and destroyed by Gaara's sand. However a claw on the end of one of the chains hit Gaara, hard enough to send him into a tree and then into unconsciousness.

Ino, Hinata, and Naruto froze and watched Yugito. Anko stopped the attack she had been preparing, knowing enough of demon etiquette to know that the two men in front of them were Yugito's prey now.

"You…hurt…my mate…" Yugito said, her voice cold and dark.

The first man laughed, "Mate? God what are you people, animals?"

Yugito looked up, her eyes glowed green, "As a matter of fact…" Only the Jinchuuriki saw her move, and the next second the man was headless, "You're pretty damn close."

Yugito made a move, then fell into the fetal position screaming.

The second man stared at his brother's headless body and spun on the screaming Neko Youkai, "I'll kill you!" he yelled.

Naruto, as the only other dominant present, moved to his friends defense and motioned for the other two to restrain the man, Ino struck out and her Chain scythe wrapped around the ninja, She grabbed the blade as a handhold as she held him still.

Hinata put her scythe's blade to the mans throat and waited patiently.

Naruto pointed his Katana at the man's heart and the blade lit on fire. His eyes went blank and he thrust ruthlessly. The Inu, Ryuu, and Kitsune Jinchuuriki backed up and put their weapons away, Naruto cleaning his before sheathing it.

Anko went over and checked Gaara, careful not to touch him. She nodded to herself and quickly went to the still screaming Yugito.

After a few seconds Anko turned to her concerned team, "She's fine, her Kekkai Genkai is just activating."

Everyone gave a relieved sigh and Gaara stirred, slowly sitting up, "What…happened…Yu-chan?" The last word was said in a helpless chibi voice that immediately sent Ino, Hinata, and even Anko into mother hen mode.

Naruto twitched and Yugito stopped screaming, but was panting hard and barely conscious, nobody seemed to notice however as they were too busy staring at the pitch black wings that had sprouted from Yugito's back.

"Um…guys?" Yugito whispered hoarsely, "Weren't those ninja?"

Gaara ran over and helped Yugito stand as everyone turned an accusing eye on Tazuna who began to sweat bullets.

After Tazuna explained the situation that his village, and entire land, was in, Team Ashi agreed to continue on the mission.

Gaara carried Yugito on his sand until they reached a man who had a boat prepared. They safely crossed a waterway that marked the beginning of the land of the waves. Yugito started to recover a bit while her teammates quizzed her on information she had withheld until her bloodline actually activated.

After they got off the boat everyone was back in formation and chatting quietly when Naruto stopped and scented the air.

"You guys smell that?" He called to his mates and friends.

"Hai"

"Hai"

"Duh"

"Hn"

"Smells Jounin level, we may be in for something." Naruto said as a mist crept in and a giant sword came flying at them.

"DUCK!" Anko yelled.

Tazuna looked around, "Where?" before Anko pulled him down.

"That!" Naruto began, pointing at the sword. His team froze, waiting to see what their de facto leader's opinion was, "Is one big butter knife!"

Everyone glared at him and proceeded to jump away as Momochi Zabuza walked out and yanked his sword from the tree.

"Shit just hit the fan." Ino observed and her friends couldn't help but agree.
