Chapter 3 First Kill
(AU) They always knew Naruto Uzumaki as the idiot or the dobe, what if a change in his life and a meeting with a certain ANBU helped change his life for the better? Yugao Uzuki has been suffering from the loss of her boyfriend, and cut people out of her life for the better, what if she met a young blonde who helped her heal her heart?
A/N: So some people were saying that I was bashing Sakura in the first chapter and I wasn't. I mean she would yell and hit Naruto for the stupidest reasons, so her slapping him wasn't out of character. I'm not bashing Sakura I like her but young Sakura was a fangirl like die hard.
Yūgao is 17 in this fic and Naruto is 13 I changed the ages to make it more closer to each other.

Chapter 3 First Kill
"Sh-Shizune-neechan what are you doing here?" Naruto asked in confusion while looking at the ravenette in confusion. He didn't expect Anko to help find someone especially a medic nin, that greatly confused him, why did Anko bring a medic with her.
"Remember Gaki always and I mean always have a teammate who knows medical ninjutsu. It'll be helpful in the long run, most shinobi just pass off medics since they're not close range fighters. But not me brat I value Medics above off all else when I was in ANBU having a medic on my squad was extremely helpful and lifesaving they pulled our asses out of so much trouble." Anko said while patting Shizune on her back making the woman blush in embarrassment from being praised so much.
"Alright so make sure that no matter what mission I have, to always bring a medic with me. Know that I think about it, it does seem like the perfect idea I mean most people ignore them and don't care much about the idea since they feel like they have to protect them." Naruto said while they made their way to the village gates.
"Why doesn't Hokage baa-chan just train more combat medics? I mean it'll help us in the long run making sure that all of us come back safe and not having to resort to other villages hospitals." Naruto asked as he pulled out the scroll and signed out for his mission with Anko and Shizune.
"She tried getting them during the second war but she was shot down. You could always talk to her about it Naruto-kun, I'm sure if you bring up valid points and give a good argument she'd be more than happy to comply." Shizune replied while looking at her little brother figure.
She was still shocked that Anko had literally kidnapped her for this mission, what kind of person throws another person into a sack and says 'we're going on a mission.' Shizune had decided it'd be nice to help Naruto on his first mission as leader, she'd be able to heal him and help guide him he'd be more comfortable leading missions on his own.
"Hmm I'll definitely talk to her about this, now the town we're headed to is called Gazi town. They don't have any shinobi but they do have a police force, but the mayor says that some of the police force have been paid off by the bandits to turn a blind eye so they can smuggle woman and children for trade. What I was thinking was I'd make a few clones and have them henge into 'vulnerable tourist' so they can capture the bandits attention." Naruto said while he and his two teammates were hopping through the trees, the town was a two day travel. Enough to make a plan and backup plans.
"How do you plan on doing that Gaki? Clones are a good idea but the Henge isn't flawless, it's easily disrupted. You'll also have to put into consideration on who you can trust and how to go about this too, you can't just waltz into a town and act like a 'lost tourist' without raising some kind of suspicion." Anko said while poking some holes through his plan.
Naruto knew she was right, he'd have to come up with an idea, he'd been training in fuinjutsu and the most he was able to do was just make storage seals. He could probably make a few clones and overload them with chakra so once they unsealed it the clones would explode causing some mayhem and confusion. He had a lot to learn and he was more than eager to learn, no one gets anywhere by themselves.
"I can always act like a lost tourist myself and say that my 'family' is looking for me and they'd pay a hefty price for my safety. You and Shizune-neechan can go to a bar and gather information as well, one thing I learned from Ero-sennin is that most guys tend to get loose lipped when drunk and around attractive females." Naruto said not noticing Shizune's blush from being called attractive.
"Soooo Gaki you think Anko-chan is attractive kukuku, if only you were older I'd definitely show my gratitude. Your blood is still the my favorite and I can't wait till you get older, who knows I may rock your world." Anko cooed while licking her lips seductively, while laughing as Naruto almost fell on his face from being teased by the Jōnin.
Why did he ask her to help him on this mission? Oh right she doesn't sugar coat anything, if a plan sucks she'll tell you to your face and point out all the flaws. This is why he asked her to join him, she was blunt and honest this is what he wanted in his teammates, someone who was willing to tell you how it was and not sugar coat anything.
He was going to make sure he absorbed everything Anko and Shizune told him, if this mission was successful he'd be able to lead more missions, more missions more responsibility more responsibility a better chance of him becoming stronger. His main goal was to join ANBU and become strong enough to be an ANBU Captain.
They had just arrived two days ago and had found to a hotel room. They were heading to talk to the mayor of the town, the three of them noticed how tense everyone was and made note of how the police force would look at them then walk away. They were mostly eyeing Anko and Shizune, thinking that they'd be easy targets to capture, oh how wrong they were.
"Looks like we're not really wanted here don't you think Gaki and Shizune-chan?" Anko asked while stealthily sending some snakes summons out to gather intel like Naruto had told her to do. He wanted ever advantage he could get, if Anko's snake summons could find out where the bandit camp was then that'd be a plus for them.
"Alright Gaki we found a hotel and now what?" Anko asked while spinning a kunai out of boredom, she really wanted to go stab someone, she missed seeing blood.
"We should go talk to the Mayor and figure out what we're dealing with, if we can get as much information as possible it'll be helpful in the long run, information is key to our survival." Naruto said while walking towards the door and making a few clones and henged them into random looking civilian girls, he would make sure that they caught some attention.
"Let's head out Anko-sensei and Shizune-Neechan." Naruto said while they left towards the Mayor's building.
"Don't worry Naruto-kun, we'll make sure that we help you complete this mission no matter what. Anko-san and I will also be running a mental evaluation on you after the mission is completed to make sure that you're still fit for active duty." Shizune replied while placing her hand on his shoulder.
"How do you guys deal killing? How do you force yourself to go through with it without hesitating!" Naruto asked in a sad voice. He knew he'd have to kill eventually as was life of being a shinobi.
"The best way to do it is by killing your emotions Gaki. Remember this your enemy is going to be trying to kill you to, so whether you want to come back home or not is entirely up to you. You can kill your emotions and kill your enemy or be a little bitch who lets your opponent kill you instead." Anko said in a blunt like fashion making Shizune sigh at the Kunoichi's bluntness.
"I understand and I see where you're coming from Anko-sensei, if you kill your emotions during a fight not only will you be able to kill your opponent but they won't be able to use your emotions against you." Naruto said while simplifying her unorthodox explanation. He smiled at her and could see the proudness in her eyes, for some reason he just felt close to the woman, not in a romantic sense but in more of a sibling sense or even a mother figure.
"Look at that Gaki you're not as dumb as people make you out to be, wonder where you got this new gained knowledge from?" Anko teased, she knew that Jiraiya and The Hokage had brought him books to read while he was in the hospital for a week and a half.
Since none of classmates came to visit him all he did was read to pass time, she had felt bad when she saw him alone just reading, that night she had left him some Dango when he was in the hospital. She had started viewing the young blonde as something as maybe a son or little brother and she'd make sure that she trained him properly on how to cope with killing.
After meeting with the Mayor, one of Anko's summons appeared back and gave them directions to the bandit camps. Here they were watching them, He knew rushing in would be stupid, it'd be the fastest way to get him and his teammates killed. He had to plan this out and figure out a good way to attack, making a clone he had it henge into a bird and had it fly around the the camp and perch itself on a branch before dispelling.
"You ready Gaki?" Came the voice of one Anko, she was worried about the blonde but knew he'd have to do this and get through it, she'd help him through his first kill and make sure he didn't succumb to the darkness. A lot of good people never went back to being themselves after killing and she wanted to make sure that he kept some of his personality intact.
"Y-yea." Naruto said with a slight hesitation in his voice, he took a deep breath to calm his nerves. Today was the day that he became a shinobi, today was the day that he would make his first kill, he was nervous but he had to kill his emotions.
"Shizune I want you to spread some poison around the camp, it'll weaken them and it'll help us by giving us the advantage. Anko I want you to summon a few snakes and have them bite as many bandits as possible. Once I finish killing them, I want you and Shizune to administer the antidotes to the hostages, I'll make sure to make enough clones to help them escape." Naruto said while Anko and Shizune nodded.
While the plan was a bit reckless but it did prove to be thought out carefully. The snakes and poison mist would cause a huge commotion and since Naruto was immune to poisons it proved to be a plan that would only put himself in danger while the others were able to get to safety with minimal damage.
After getting in close without being spotted or noticed the plan was set in motion. Purple smoke expelled from Shizune's mouth as snakes slithered in the camp as the men and women were screaming and inhaling the poisons. Some felt fangs in their legs and started feeling sick causing them to throw up. Some didn't even notice as Naruto sliced their necks killing them instantly.
Shizune and Anko watched as the clones were bringing out the kidnapped women, Shizune and Anko immediately went to treat them giving them the antidotes as they smiled at them and hugged them.
In the camp Naruto hardened his heart as he watched a couple of bandits run towards him as they staggered and yelled. Moving to the side and dodging a katana swipe Naruto brought his knee up to the man's stomach before impaling his kunai through the man's neck killing him instantly.
A blank look remained on Naruto's face before flinging his kunai towards a female who rushed at him with a bo-staff. With a swift motion he threw the kunai and watched as it flew through the air as it met its target, the sound of gurgling could be heard as Naruto picked up the katana and rushed forward before making more clones.
Bandit after bandit fell, he and his clones would slice or stab their way through them. He wanted this mission to be over, he felt sick to his stomach and wanted to throw up. He steeled his resolve before slicing off a woman's head as the look of shock and horror never left her face, years of abuse and instincts told Naruto to duck as a battle axe was swung where his head was located.
"You…*cough**cough*.. you're good brat, but let's see how you really do." The man coughed out through the poison mist. Naruto readied himself, one mistake and he'd die, one wrong move and it'd cost him his life. He watched as the man rushed forward and brought the battle axe in a downward slash making Naruto dodge, with an instant the man resumed his attack as he brought his axe back up in a upward slash. Years of dodging saved his life as the man was able to slice some of his clothing and the cloth holding his Hitai-ate making it fall the ground.
"Yo..*cough**cough**cough*." The man spat out some blood before composing himself. "I won't lie brat you got lucky, if this poison and those snakes hadn't weakened me I know you'd be dead by now." The man fainted trying to goad Naruto into making a mistake.
"I won't lie this is the first mission that I'm leading myself and this is the first time I've killed. I know I'd be dead if I didn't have my teammates weaken you, but that doesn't mean I'll go down without taking you with me. Even the strongest of men can be taken down by a civilian if the moment is right or if the numbers are to great." Naruto said before adding some chakra to the kodachi. He'd definitely keep this, it was rare to find chakra metal but to find a kodachi or katana that was made from chakra metal was even rarer.
"Hmm smart brat, most kids your age would've let their emotions get in the way or they'd never admit that they'd be dead." He smirked.
"Naruto"
"Hmm I didn't ask for your name brat, but since you were kind enough to tell me yours my name is Ken." He said with a smirk before rushing in while swinging his battle axe towards the blondes mid section. He watched as Naruto brought up the kodachi and blocked his attack, a fight for dominance was seen before Naruto spammed his foot into the man stomach making him lose his balance.
Whether it was instincts or from the clones memories Naruto brought up grabbed his Ken's battle axe and yanked it forward before slamming his kodachi through his heart.
"*cough**cough**cough* that wa-as a go-ood plan." Ken said before falling backwards with his eyes closed, not that Naruto would ever know but he had earned the respect of Ken Zaku. A man known for his ruthlessness and heartless, he had killed many in his life and never once in his life did he care for others. But Naruto admitted to him that if he didn't weaken him he'd surely be dead, that's what made Naruto earn his respect.
A week had passed since completing the mission and Yugao was standing outside Naruto's door, she knew that he was depressed and couldn't sleep constantly waking up from nightmares. She felt bad for the blonde but knew that being out with friends would help him. So here she was, picking up Naruto to hang out with her and a few of her friends.
"Naruto open this door before I kick it down and drag you out by your ear!" Yugao shouted before she heard shuffling and some curses from the sounds of it Naruto must've tripped, a few seconds later a sleep deprived Naruto answered the door.
"Oh hey Yugao."
Sorry for the long wait but chapter 3 is complete I hope you all enjoyed it, sorry if the fight scene wasn't good I'm working on it.
