dont own naruto or any other characters only ocs

Rania walked down the corridor, her mind already thinking ahead. She was hoping that they would be able to get out without any casualties.

"My General, the Consul is waiting for you in his office." a soldier reported. Rania nodded. She made her way to Galen's office. Entering the office, she was greeted by Galen in battle attire. His armour was silver and well fitted to his slender, muscular body. On the outside, Galen was a diplomat but he wasnt the Consul of Velos for no reason. He practiced with his abilities and weapons everyday as did Rania. Many had underestimated him and paid a price. He was the kind of person if you angered him, he would wait for the right time to get his revenge. Rania was the same. Galen looked up, his green eyes flaming. Rania knew he was upset.

"I have already ordered the Painted Lady to take us to the island that the caravan was resting at. We will be there in no time. The Guard should meet us there." Galen said. Rania nodded her understanding. Quickly the duo exited the office but instead of going out the front door, they left by a hidden back door. Quickly they left via alleys and shortcuts. Within minutes, they were at the hidden harbor. Most of the Guard were there already, save for Danok. The Shika-Ino-Cho trio, Kakashi, Asuma, and Yugo were there too. The ship was at the ready. Suddenly, Rania whirled around, on alert. She was faced by the three Sannin. She relaxed her stance. Tsunade spoke first.

"We want to come along. You need all the help you can get. Besides, we had a score to settle with ROOT." Tsunade spoke with the two men nodding their heads. Rania thought about it for a moment.

"Ok, we'll fill you in as we board." Rania said. The sannin boarded quickly. Rania told the sannin the plan. Orochimaru spoke.

"Hmmm, it seems the plan is solid but how can Yugo free the prisoners?"

"Jensen is no slouch. If he could he would fight. But there are other lives at stake. Once Yugo frees Jensen, they will free the others." Danok said. Tsunade spoke then.

"Why would they attack a peaceful convoy? ROOT seems to be acting stupidly." She said. Rania spoke as the ship left the dock.

"Simple, we could give you and the others over and ROOT would be happy. ROOT thinks that they are the best, that they csnt be defeated, and that they will rule the world."Rania said. Quietly, she made her way to a stack of barrels. Before anyone could ask what she was doing, she flipped the rope holding them together. Out came Naruto, Sakura, Sasuke, Kiba, Shino Hinata, Lee, the younger Shika-Ino-Cho trio, and tenten. Rania smirked. Tsunade stomped over to them, angry.

"What are you doing here? You were supposed to stay behind. You all have one minute to explain why?" Tsunade fumed. Everyone was patiently waiting for an explanation. Sasuke spoke up.

"Simple, Lady Tsunade, we want to show ROOT that we are not afraid and that we won't hide from them. We are Ninjas of Velos and our Fire burns brighter than ever." Sasuke said. Tsunade was mad but proud. Kakashi eye smiled. Rania spoke.

"Actually, this could work into our plans. A sneak attack could be the exact diversion we need. Naruto, can you henge your clones to look like ROOT members?" Rania asked. Naruto smiled.

"You bet!!! The only problem is i make alot like a hundred or so." Naruto said. Rania smiled.

"Perfect. If ROOT sees its more help, they wont attack right away. It will give Yugo and the others time. It will also cause ROOT to doubt their own comrades. We'll be there in an hour. Just remember, we will succeed." Rania said, sitting against the mast post. Everyone else quieted down so that they could be prepared mentally and physically for the battle ahead.

Velos

As the sun was setting, the Phantomhive estate was recieving guests. The Demon Brigade was meeting tonight. Sesshomaru, Inuyasha, Sir Integra, Dante, Adrian, Alucard, Grell and Ciel were around a dinner table. Sebastian and Walter were serving the group.

"So this Zetsu thing was killed?" Ciel asked Dante.

"I'm certain its in a world of hurt but I dont know if I killed it or not." Dante answered softly. Ciel nodded. Sebastian spoke up.

"Hmm, it would seem that this plant creature is very interested in the nins. If you pull a weed out, they usually die." Sebastian commented. Inuyasha spoke up.

"What is concerning is the fact that this plant thing can pop up anywhere. So we have to assume that it can make copies of people as well." Inuyasha said. A rustling of pages was heard suddenly. Everyone looked at Grell, who had a book out. Grell suddenly stopped.

"Found it. Zetsu-A plant spawned of the demon traitor Kagura upon her confinement. Known as a clone based entity." Grell said. Anger flowed from Sesshomaru. This was the bitch that cost his father his life. Inuyasha touched Sesshomaru's hand. Sir Integra spoke.

"So this demon bitch is the one trying to break free. Hmm, it seems that we are a clog in her plans. No matter. We can deal with her later. Right now we need to see what kind of creatures this Danzo has at his beck and call." She said, cigar hanging in her mouth. Ciel spoke again.

"True, Sir Integra, this Danzo is concerning. I wonder how he is able to control these creatures." Ciel said sipping his tea. Adrian spoke, his voice sharp.

"I fear that Danzo himself is a pawn. We all know Madara's nody was never found after the First Hokage and he fought. It would seem that Madara is the puppetmaster of Danzo. If so, Danzo is nothing more than a puppet doing his masters will. We need more infomation." Adrian said. Thectable got quiet. This was a popular idea. Alucard spoke next.

"We are certain that he is someones puppet. But why do you need a puppet such as Danzo? And what was the promised return for his services?" Alucard wondered as the table pondered. Sesshomaru looked curious but was Inuyasha who spoke next.

"The Fourth Great Ninja War would give Danzo a lot of prisoners to test and control and Madara would take over. Like dominoes, knock one down and they fall unless you break the chain. Madara would then have the charka demons and their vessels. That could be his original plan." Inuyasha said. Sebastian spoke.

"That is very likely, Young Master. If a war had broken out and Naruto was under Danzos control, the result would be devastating." Sebastian said. Ciel crossed his hands and leaned on them then he spoke.

"Very true. Walter you've been quiet." Ciel noticed. Walter spoke.

"Lord Ciel, I think along the same lines as Lord Inuyasha. A man like Danzo craves power and will do anything to get it. We need to watch him carefully." Walter said. The group agreed. Ciel turned to Sebastian.

"Where is Noah's ark circus? Joker and the others would love to perform there I'm sure." Ciel asked. Sebastian smiled.

"They are on the way to Konoha right now actually. I thought it was best if they began investigating the case as soon as possible." Sebastian replied. Ciel nodded.

"Good, we will wait until they report in. Is there any other business to discuss?" Ciel asked. No one spoke up.

"Good, Sebastian, you may serve dinner now." Ciel said. The group began to talk of minor details and such. Grell was quietly thinking. This Danzo is trouble. I will send Joker a message tonight to be wary. He thought as dinner was served. The group ate, finished their meeting, and departed. Sebastian closed the door. Tonight, he had work to do gathering intel on Danzo. Quietly, he walked the halls, an amused smile on his face. Soon, ROOT will feel the lash and tge sword. Sebastian thought as he began his research of Danzo. Indeed, tonight ROOT would be red with blood.

A small island in the ocean

A group of ROOT members were gaurding a single man. His shoulder length green hair was messy due to fighting. His tan skin had a few bruises. He was tall and muscular with piercing green eyes. Jensen Ere was on his way back home when these mongrels jumped his ship. If it had only been him, he wouldve fought to break free, but he had other passengers to consider. ROOT members looked down at the man, his hands and feet chained together behind his back. He watched the trees, knowing that a rescue mission had already been launched. A group of orphaned children were being held not too far away. A slaver had them and Jensen had "convinced" the slaver that the children were of no monetary value. He was taking them to Velos when the ROOT attacked. The children were huddled together, one small one crying.

"Hush, brat!" a ROOT member exclaimed. The small girl quieted down. Jensen spoke, his voice a small rumble.

"They are just children. They are scared. Why do you expect them to do? Laugh?" Jensen said sharply. The nin walked iver and punched Jensen in the face. Jensen merely smirked.

"I'll get that punch back. Don't worry." He growled. A ships mast came into view snd soon a ship. ROOT members covered the deck. The ROOT nin laughed.

"Reinforcements, well good. Get down and get to work." A nin shouted. The ROOT nins did walking up to the others. Suddenly a ROOT nin fell dead.

"Ambush!!!" A nin cried out. Pandemonium broke out. ROOT was trying to locate the enemy. Jensen felt the chains around his arms legs fall off. Turning around, he seen a female nin. Quickly understanding, he silently stood up.

"The children?"

"Are being moved now. Lady Rania is waiting for me to free you before the real party starts." Yugo said quietly. Yugo gave a signal. On the ship, Rania nodded.

"Drop the henges, Naruto. The fights just begun." She said. Naruto did as she asked. The ROOT nins were confused.

"CLONES!!! WE ARE UNDER ATTACK!!! GUARD THE PRISONERS!!!" the ROOT commander shouted. The nins looked to find the prisoners gone.

"KILL THEM ALL!!" a ROOT nin shout. Suddenly, the nin was face to face with the Sannin. The night turned frigid as the rest of the group came out to play. Jensen, who had joined the others, smiled. The ROOT nins began to shake with fear unlike as ny they'd ever experienced. they knew that they were screwed up and Danzo had sent thrm to die. The smell of fear in the air was thick. Suddenly a icy voice spoke.

"You are going to pay for your deeds here today? Any last words?" Galen said, his eyes blazing. ROOT was speechless. Galen smiled.

"Well then, take no prisoners!!"
