TU: Hey everyone and welcome to another chap-WHOA! -gets pulled into the ground with just my head sticking out- What the name of the Shinigami is going on?
Sasuke: -walks in trough the door with a grin despite ebing covered in bandages- Hello Author-sama, how are you?
TU: -looks around- Obviously I am doing better than you if I were to go by looks. What happened Sasuke, Orochimaru get a little rough with you last night?
Sasuke: -grows a tick mark over his right eye- I don't swing that way damnit!
TU: All evidence to the contrary if we look back at how you treated Sakura, Ino, and any of your other fan-girls.
Sasuke: They would just get in the way of my training.
TU: Oh really? So you prefer to train alone?
Sasuke: That's right, or with those I can gain more power from.
TU: So you would train under any sensei?
Sasuke: Of course I would. -thinks for a moment- Except Kurenai or Anko.
TU: -smirks- So you admit to only wanting to train under male sensei's correct?
Sasuke: Well duh. -gains a confident smile- Everyone knows men are stronger, faster, and harder to train with.
TU: Think about everything you just said and those questions I asked you.
Sasuke: -closes his eyes as he thinks everything over before opening them in shock- No...
TU: -whisper's in Sasuke's ear- That's right you emo wannabe.
Sasuke: GAH! -jumps and spins around looking from me to the hole I was in- How, when?
TU: -smirks- Shadow Clone teme, never leave my laptop unprotected.
Sasuke: Grr...can't believe I fell for that. -hangs his head in defeat before glaring at me- But your still going to pay for making Tsunade come after me!
TU: -looks at him with a blank expression and a cold stare- Threating the one who has complete control of your fate, tsk tsk, not very smart on your part. -leans close to whisper in his ear- I can easily make you fall madly in love with Sakura, or perhaps you would rather be with Kabuto AND Orochimaru.
Sasuke: You wouldn't dare.
Naruto: -pokes his head up from the window- Don't push him teme. Not sure what's going on but Author-sama is in a bad mood this week.
Sasuke: Shut up dobe, like I need your help with this.
Hariken: I think you can use all the help you can get before you get into anymore trouble Sasuke.
Sasuke: -simply glares at me once more before leaving without a word-
TU: -sighs- I really wish everyone would stop pushing my button's, I can only take so much. Guys do the disclaimer's please.
Naruto&Hariken: Author-sama does not own Naruto or it's character's. He wishes but hey we can't all have what we want, now on with the story.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Konoha Public Park
"Momochi Zabuza." Ibiki says with a hint of aggravation.
Stepping completely out of the mist the Kiri-nin simply stands there with his huge blade laying across his shoulder's "In the flesh, now if you excuse me I have a contract to keep." he lift's his sword up and points it at the Uzumaki's "So if you don't mind I'll kill the runt's now and call it a day."
Naruto and Hariken both glare at the Kiri-nin. They may only be six years old but they weren't going down without a fight.
(Naruto's and Hariken's shared mindscape)
"You both may try to fight back, but this Zabuza character is beyond either of you." Fenirir comments to both boys with a slight growl. Curse his luck for being trapped inside of someone so young and being completely useless.
"As much as I hate to say this Naru-kun and Hari-kun, but I agree with the mutt on this one." Kurama remarks before adding "If you boy's could do more than the Henge no Jutsu (Transformation Technique), Bunshin no Jutsu (Clone Technique), and the Kawarimi no Jutsu (Change of Body Stance Technique) I wouldn't be worried."
"Heh, thanks for the vote of confidence Kurama-chan, but I have an idea." Naruto says in his mindscape momentarily shocking Hariken, Fenirir, and Kurama.
"You have a plan pup?" Fenirir asks while fighting the urge to luagh.
"Yeah I have a plan, what's so wrong with me coming up with idea's every once and awhile?" Naruto asks almost shouting as he walks up to Fenirir's cage.
"I meant no offence Naruto-san." Fenirir says slightly bowing his head before continuing "It's just that your not exactly the plan making type."
"I know that dattebayo!" Naruto shouts in mild annoyence "But I'm tired of everyone looking down on me, so from now on I am going to act and think like a true shinobi so that I can become Hokage and protect those precious to me."
Hariken stands next to his brother and places his hand on Naruto's shoulder with a smile before looking up to Fenirir "If Nii-san has a plan then let's hear it." he gives a confident smile "Beside's I have my own dream of being the leader of ANBU someday, so if I can't trust Nii-san now when can I."
Fenirir and Kurama share a look and smile, they may have been cursed to live inside these two boys but they certainly couldn't ask for braver shinobi to call "friend".
"Alright Naruto-san, let's hear your plan." Fenirir says with a grin.
(Back with everyone else)
Ibiki and the Guard surround Naruto, Hariken and the other children drawing kunai and shuriken as the do so with the Hokage standing in front of them all.
Sarutobi Hiruzen takes a few steps towards Zabuza ignoring the warnings from Ibiki "I see you were hired by some angered villager's to come and kill these boy's, am I correct Zabuza?" asks the eldest shinobi out of everyone there.
"Hn." Zabuza scoffs before answering "So what if I was old man? The payment was too high to turn down, and besides they are just a couple of snot nosed brat's, who would miss them honestly?"
"Well for one all of their friends here would miss them very much." Sarutobi says indicating to the group of children with a wave of his hand. "Aside from them you have the head interigator of the Leaf Village behind me, along with the other twelve cloaked member's." he says with a slight jerk of his thumb as Ibiki sends some of his KI towards Zabuza making the Kiri-nin think twice before attacking him first.
"Of course there is also..." Sarutobi pauses as he throws off his Kage robes to appear in his standard shinobi attire consisting of a full body black outfit with matching hitai-ate "Me, the Third Hokage of the Village Hidden in the Leaves."
Zabuza raises a non-exisiting eyebrow and let's out a low whistle "I am honored to be in the presence of the 'God of Shinobi' himself and the famed Morino Ibiki." he spin's his sword a couple of times before asking "But is all this security for two gaki's really necessary?"
One member of The Guard walks up next to the Hokage and pull's her hood down exposing herself to everyone there.
"Kaa-san!" yells Mitarashi Anko.
"Arisu-neechan?" asks Zabuza with a shocked expression painted over his face.
'Nee-chan!?' everyone but the Hokage, Ibiki, Anko's mother, and Zabuza think at the exact same time.
"Hello Zabuza, it's been awhile since I saw you last." Mitarashi Arisu says with a soft smile "You look well Nii-san, at least Kiri took good care of you after they kidnapped you. You eve became one of the Kiri no Shinobigatana Shichinin Shu (The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist), Kaa-san and Tou-san would be proud of you." she finishes with a look of sadness plain as day on her face.
"Why are you here nee-chan?" Zabuza asks completely ignoring his sister's comment.
"I am here to protect your mei Anko-chan, and your adoptive oi" she points over at Hariken with a gleam in her eye.
Zabuza's eyes widden at that as he follows Arisu's finger being pointed towards one of his "target's". He looks towards his sister before he starts luaghing.
"HAhahaha, This is some sort of joke right?" asks Zabuza as he point's his sword at the boy's "You expect me to believe that one of those runt's is my adoptive oi, and I thought I was the only one with a twisted sense of humor. You may know that I swore to never kill any family, but what proof can you give me that the redhead is related to me?"
"Hariken, could you come here a moment sweetheart?" Arisu asks with a smile she direts at Zabuza "You want proof nii-san, well hold on to your sword."
Hariken walks up to Arisu "Yes Arisu-kaachan, how can I help?" he asks confidently remembering Naruto's plan B.
"Hariken, what are the five vital organs that could kill someone?" Arisu asks calmly
"They are the brain, kidneys, heart, liver, and lungs." Harikens answer's before going into some detail "The Brain is the easiest to hit most of the time, mostly because some shinobi don't protect it easily, next would be the heart, liver, and lungs if you were to get a lucky enough hit, and even though the kidneys wouldn't cause imidiate death your target would still suffer and eventually die."
Arisu nods, but she knows that isn't enough for Zabuza "Very good, now what is the Mitarashi Clan's Kekkei Genkai?"
"The Mitarashi Clan doesn't have a Kekkei Genkai Arisu-kaachan, you know that." Hariken answer's "What they have is the sole contrat with the dragon's which clan member's are only allowed to sign once they have learned everything about the human body and it's weaknesses."
All Zabuza can do is stare in disbelief at the young Uzumaki. Oh sure he knew about the organ's, but then again everyone there aside from most of the kids did, what surprised him though was the fact that this kid knew about his old families ties to the legendary dragon's.
'Well I'll be damned.' the Kiri-nin thinks to himself 'Guess I can't kill those brat's after all, oh well at least I got paid up front'
Arisu looks to her brother "Are you satisfied Nii-san?" she asks "Do you believe me now and will you give up trying to kill Hari-kun and Naru-kun?"
'I really hate that nickname' Naruto and Hariken think at the same time.
Zabuza places his sword on his back and grins underneath his bandages "Yeah you convinced me Nee-chan, those runts are safe from me at least."
"What's that supposed to mean you mummified freak?" Inuzuka Kiba asks with akamaru barking his agreement.
"You'll find out." Zabuza says as he cancels his mist jutsu to reveal that everyone is surrounded by at least sixty black clothed assassin's.
"So, it would seem the rumor's of you not killing family is true Zabuza, how disappointing." says one of the assassin's
Zabuza simply shrugs before grbbing his swords handle "Well what can I say, even demon's have rules they need to follow."
"That is true." Kurama and Fenirir say at the same time causing Naruto and Hariken to nod.
"Hn, be that as it may Zabuza." the same unamed assassin states "We will still allow you to join us in killing the Hokage as well as those demon spawn." he finishes as he points a kunai towards the brother's.
"Not gunna happen." Zabuza says as he dashes to his left and cut's five assassin's in half in one swing "I may not be a part of this village anymore, but you will not touch my oi and his brother." he says calmly as a dark aura rises behind him taking a form of a demon.
"ATTACK!" the assassin says as he and the remaining fifty-four with him conferge on everyone.
"Now dattebayo!" shouts Naruto as he and Hariken channel their chakra to replace themselves and their friends with logs that had explosive tags on them. Before the assassin's closest to the Uzumaki Duo could even blink they were all engulfed in flames as the tags exploded bringing the number of assassin's down to thirty.
Before anyone knew what was going on a huge battle broke out within the park. Hiruzen was fighting who he guessed was the leader of this attack, Ibiki had two for himself, Zabuza and Arisu were fighting together covering one another as if it was practiced.
Nara Shemeji had three surround him, but they fell rather quickly when he used the Nara Clans famed Kage Nui Jutsu (Shadow Sewing Technique) when he combined his shadow with that of the trees around him.
Sadly even though Inuzuka Tomari managed to kill his opponent, he and his canine familiar were both killed by two more assassin's. Haruno Chika, Sato Iyachi, and Yamanaka Izumi were providing back-up to Akimichi Choumaki as he bulldozed over another assassin who couldn't move out of the way of the famed Nikudan Sensha (Human Bullet Tank).
The rest of The Guard found the children and were protecting them, although it seemed that the only main target the assassin's were worried about was Lord Hokage. The children were all huddled together until Sakura spoke up "Hey, where are Hariken and Naruto?" Which of course caused everyone to start looking around.
'Naruto-kun, Hariken-kun, where are you?' Hinata thinks to herself.
'Where did those mutt's go?' Kiba wonder's to himself as Akamaru whine's.
Shino remains quiet, although if one were to listen close enough they could hear his insects buzzing loudly.
'It is fate's hand if they were caught.' Neji says to himself.
'Naruto, Hariken...' Ino, TenTen, and Sakura all think silently.
'This is so troublesome, why didn't I just go cloud watching with Chouji?' Shikamaru asks himself as he stares at the clouds above.
Chouji is just sitting there munching on his bag of chips while wondering how his friends are doing.
'I swaer, if those two got themselves caught I am going to tane their hide's myself' Anko thinks to herself 'Please be safe guys.'
'Those dobe's.' Sasuke thinks 'They end up saving all of us from those assassin's and then disappear, can't even stay with the group.'
In the tree's we find our two favorite shinobi in training, sitting on a couple of branches as the watched the fight unfold.
"That was a great idea Nee-san." Hariken says softly as he pats his brother on the back before looking back down at the fight "But what are we going to do now?"
"I...I don't know nee-san, I don't know." is all the blonde could say as he watched the fighting that was going on.
Out of the corner of their eyes Naruto and Hariken see an assassin rushing towards Hiruzen's blind spot, kunai in hand and ready to make the killing blow.
"JIJI!" they both cry out.
However, before Hariken knew what was going on he saw Naruto jump down and rush towards the assassin behind Hiruzen, rage apparent on his face as his eyes turned red with slitted pupils, and a single tomoe in his left eye. Once Naruto reached the aged Hokage he simply stands his ground glaring dagger's at the assassin.
(Naruto's Mindscape)
"Naruto-kun, I hope you know what your doing." Kurama says to her container in both fear and worry.
"Have some faith in me Kurama-chan." says Naruto "Beside's how can I become Hokage if I were to die here?"
Kurama smiles before flicking the tip of one of her tails over the back of his head "Baka, remind me if we live through this to kiss you."
"Kiss me!?" shouts Naruto as he falls backwards "I'm only six Kurama-chan, how can you think of kissing me?"
Kurama simply luaghs and winks at the blonde "Just kidding Naruto-kun. Well mostly, I will wait till he is older."the latter she says to herself letting her perverted mind play with the idea.
(Back at the park)
Seeing his chance the assassin runs faster at the boy in front of him aiming the kunai for the boys forehead.
"Today you die demon!" yells the assassin getting Sarutobi's attention just as he finished off his attacker.
"Naruto-kun!" shouts Sarutobi and Ibiki at the same time.
But before anyone could do anything Naruto jumps at the last moment and kick's his attacker in the side of the head hard enough to send him back a few feet, but not before getting a slight cut on his leg.
The assassin gets up and glare's angerly at the blonde "Heh, lucky shot demon." he readies his kunai once more "It won't happen twice."
With Hariken
Hariken stares at the whole scene in front of him. Finally able to move he jumps down and starts running towards his brother only to be stopped by Ibiki.
"Oji-Ibiki, let me go!" yells Hariken "I need to help Naruto!"
Ibiki just tightens his grip "Having to worry about one of you out there is enough trouble, I don't need you out there too Hariken." he says calmly
Hariken simply looks up at Ibiki "Let. Me. Go. Now!" he says while blazing his Byakugan.
'So, it finally activated.' Ibiki thinks to himself 'Guess that training schedule Lord Hokae and I made for them will come in handy after all.'
(Hariken's Mindscape)
"Hariken-sama, you need to calm down." Fenirir says calmly, although that is harder than it sounds as he is worried as well "I wish to help Naruto and Kurama as well, but at the moment we are in a word: stuck."
Hariken takes a few deep breath's before looking at his friend "I just feel so useless. Naruto is out there and about to possibly be killed and I'm stuck here!" he shouts out the last part as he slams his fists into the ground causing it to crack.
Fenirir looks sadly at his container before he wraps one of his tail's around the youth "Trust in him and Kurama, they will be fine." he chuckles be fore saying "Beside's, Kurama is too damn stubborn to die that easily."
That made Hariken smile before nodding his head as he hugged Fenirir's tail and left his mindscape.
(Back at the park)
Hariken calms down and deactivate's his Byakugan before looking at Ibiki "I'm sorry Oji-Ibiki. I just feel so useless right now.
Ibiki smiles at the young man "It will take a lot more than some two bit assassin to kill you or your brother, that's just how stubborn you both are."
Hariken nods before looking back towards his brother 'Kick his ass Nee-san, for both of us.
Back with Naruto
Naruto smirks as he dodges another slash from the assassin. With Kurama's help through his eyes he has been able to dodge any attack's sent his way and get in some lucky pot shots with the mediocure taijutsu the academy teaches.
'I should really update the taijutsu we teach' Sarutobi thinks to himself 'Naruto-kun has been lucky so far, but how long can he hold on?'
Meanwhile the assassin has become, well, pissed. How could this child, no this demon, be keeping up with an Uchiha like himself it was simply absured to say the least. The assassin takes a moment to compose himself as he looks at the blonde, that's when he see's it, the Sharingan.
'How?!' the assassin asks himself 'How the hell did this demon obtain our Sharingan, let alone activate it?' Without wasting anymore time he lunges at Naruto, aiming his kunai for the blonde's left eye.
Naruto freeze's for a moment too long giving the assassin the time he needs to strike, but not before Naruto raises his right hand up to try and grab the kunai.
'Bad move Naruto-kun' the Kyubii thinks to herself as she closes her eyes unable to watch.
The assassin is shocked seeing that Naruto managed to block the kunai with his hand, despite the fact that it went in halfway. However he wouldn't have enough time to try again as he was staring directly into Naruto's crimson eyes and for the first time fealt an unknown emotion: fear.
While everyone was staring at what was going on between Naruto and the assassin, Uchiha Itachi appears out of nowhere and without wasting a moment longer swung his sword at the assassin's neck.
The assassin felt a slight pinch in his neck before feeling cold. Unable to say anything all he can do is watch his final image of Naruto slowly fade from his vision.
Naruto stands in shock and awe as he blinks and see Uchiha Itachi standing over him and the now dead assassin.
"Itachi-ani!" shouts Naruto gaining the attention as he notices a look of shock on Itachi's face.
"Naruto...when did you..." Itachi trail's off as he see's everyone else coming towards them.
Looking around one would see a bloody field as all the assassin's were killed in their failed attempt. However those were not the only loses suffered as The Guard was now down three member's.
Inuzuka Tomari and his canine partner were next to each other, the stab wounds in their side's visable to anyone who looked. Haruno Chika and Sato Iyachi were next to Tomari, Iyachi had his throat slit and Chika had several kunai and shuriken embedded in her body.
Huffing a little Hiruzen makes his way over to Naruto and Itachi with Hariken by his side. Looking at the young blonde Hiruzen's eyes widden and then he looks to Itachi expecting an answer, yet all Itachi could do is shrug his shoulder's.
"Naruto..." the aged Hokage says gaining the young boys attention "...how do your eyes feel?"
"Huh, my eyes feel fine Jiji, why do you ask?" Naruto asks clearly confused.
"Nee-san." Hariken says with a smile as Naruto looks at him "You have the Sharingan."
"I have the what?" Naruto asks in complete shock as everyone closest to him and his brother simply begin to nod their heads.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
TU: And done. Finally sheesh, two chapter's in a week.
Naruto: Hmm...I don't know Author-sama this chapter seems kind of short too me.
Hariken: I have to agree with Nee-san, Author-sama.
TU: -sigh- I suppose it could be, but what do you guys expect from me here?
Sakura: We expect you to take better care of yourself and your story. You may not have many follower's but that will change in time.
Sasuke: Hn...as much as I hate to admit this, their right.
TU: -sigh- I know you guys are right, I really should lighten up a little bit.
-Large crash throught the window and smoke bombs going off-
?: Did someone say they needed to lighten up?
TU: -cough cough- Who the hell -cough- is it this -cough- time?
Naruto: -cough- I don't -cough cough- know, but it wasn't me datte-cough-bane!
Hariken: -cough cough- Who would use this much -cough cough cough- smoke?
Sakura: CHA! -cough cough- I'm gunna kill -cough- whoever did -cough cough- this!
Sasuke: -cough cough- Who dare's?
?: It's me! The hot, sexy, irresistible, and not to mention the most amazing kunoichi in THE world. Anko!
TU, Naruto, Hariken, Sakura, and Sasuke: -facepalms-
Anko: What?
TU: Get the hell out of my house Anko!
Anko: -puts her arm around my neck and hugs me close to her- Aww Author-kun, why are you being such a grump? -she asks me as she hands me a bottle of sake- Lighten up already and have some fun.
TU: -sighs as I take the bottle- Fine. Everyone take care and we will see you next time. As always, LONG LIVE ANIME!
