Chapter 4: A Score To Settle

(Opening A/N: Allow me to share a little quote that has gotten me this far, "Success is going from one failure to another without the loss of enthusiasm." And I'm just getting through the turbulence. Also I've been busting my cojones on this, and for those who say that they don't like it, just walk away. Or better yet, if you think you got the stones, then try, also I haven't used any OCs but I only have one, and that is father. Also here's for the next plot, Kiba knows who the person was that made Helen sick with a man made virus and slowly killed her. And Naruto's going to need someone to take care of the dead bodies that is littering his house. Anyhow, here's the next chapter...)

Naruto received a text from Kiba about something he wanted to know about his late wife Helen.

Hey Naruto, I found some really interesting about who was responsible for Helen's death.

Naruto then texted back, Okay Kiba, where should meet up?

Kiba then replied...Brooklyn Bridge, 15 minutes alright?

Naruto then texted, Sounds good to me, I need to take care of some corpses.

Naruto then picked up his landline phone and called the clean up crew, he needed his house cleaned if he was going to live there.

"This is Wick, yes, Naruto Wick, I'd like to make a dinner reservation for 12 please, yes, thank you." Naruto said as he hung up, when an assassin calls for a dinner reservation, it doesn't mean they're going to a restaurant and have a nice dinner, it means that the assassin has a lot of corpses that need to be cleaned up. Naruto then began to pull out a stack of gold coins as he counted up how much he was going to need for the clean up crew.

Soon after Naruto called, an elderly man named Charlie and four fellow cleaners arrived.

"I'm glad you called us Naruto, it's been a while, I was afraid we lost you." Charlie said as he took off his black fedora and walked inside.

"Charlie." Naruto said as he gestured the men into his house, the cleaners got to work by laying out plastic on the floor, this made sure that the bodies that they were going to collect, weren't going to stain any more than they are now.

The cleaners then gathered all of the guns and tossed them into a pile on the plastic tarp, one cleaner grabbed a corpse and dragged it with another cleaner mopping up the blood, one cleaner sprayed the windows of any blood splatter that were left from Naruto's kills, as soon as all the bodies were gathered up, the cleaners then began to wrap the corpses in plastic and placed them in the back of the vans as Naruto paid Charlie for their assistance.

"Will I be hearing from you any time soon?" Charlie asked and that question seemed to spark an answer with Naruto.

"That's the million dollar question ain't it Charlie, listen if I call for another dinner reservation, then you'll be the first to know, my old friend." Naruto said as he placed the coins into the old man's hand and Charlie placed his fedora onto his head.

Naruto pulled out his phone and called his friend Kiba.

"Kiba, I'm on my way to the Brooklyn bridge." Naruto said, and Kiba replied this on the other end…

"Don't keep me waiting Naruto." Kiba said on the other end as he hung up, Naruto got into his muscle car Aurelio gave him as he drove to the Brooklyn Bridge.

There Kiba was waiting for him, he had a giant diagonal scar going from above the left eye and missing the eye completely and cutting into left cheek was visible.

Naruto remembered when Kiba got that scar when they were a part of an orphanage that made them into child assassins, Kiba then pulled out a cigarette as he lit it and Naruto walked up to him.

"Here's a stupid question Naruto, why did you become a Wick? I thought you were an Uzumaki?" Kiba asked as he took a small drag from the cigarette and he flicked the ash off of the end.

"On the outside, I'm Naruto Uzumaki, but on the inside, spiritually, mentally, I'm John Wick." Naruto stated, the John Wick they both knew died when they staged an escape and a coup on the orphanage from the one that trained them called "Father."

"What did you call me out here for anyway?" Naruto asked and Kiba pulls out his phone as he shows a video of someone getting injected with a man made virus and the effects slowly kill the poor soul within five years.

"See this, this was the same virus your wife Helen was suffering from and took your unborn daughter, in fact the doctor that informed you that your child was still birth?" Kiba said as he showed another video of the doctor and Helen, he injected the virus into Helen's I.V. as she was holding her stomach making sure the baby was safe.

Soon after the baby was going to be due, but there was a complication, Helen started having uncontrollable contractions and hence the baby inside of her became stillborn.

Naruto clutched a fist as he was in a fit of anger, and Kiba tried to calm him down by placing a hand on his shoulder.

"If you really want to know who was behind this, then you need to deal with 'Father,' he was the one who killed both Helen and your daughter." Kiba said, Naruto knew that father was just some man who trained him, Kiba, Choji, John, even Sauske to be fluent assassins.

"I thought I killed father, I mean I put a bullet right through his head." Naruto said, but Kiba knew that Naruto did kill the father that trained them and for neglecting them along with having the instructors beat them senseless.

"Actually it turns out that 'Father' has a blood son and he has taken over as the new father training more assassins, I'd say we should head over and give that man a piece of our minds." Kiba said as Naruto began to clench a fist knowing the truth that laid in front of him.

"You're right, I'm not going to forgive that bastard for killing my unborn daughter along with the woman of my life, he needs to pay for what he has done." Naruto growled as he was ready to become the monster he was once made to become.

"We'll take your car." Kiba said as he climbed into the car that Aurelio gave to Naruto for the loss of his '69 mustang.

Naruto then got into the driver's seat with the intent to drive to where they were trained along with their friend John Wick.

Naruto then drives up to a familiar building where the memories of his past began to unravel in front of his eyes.

[Flashback To Naruto's Childhood]

Naruto was fighting another boy and it wasn't for survival, but it was to show the man known as "Father" that they were worthy of being assassins.

Overlooking the two boys was a well dressed man with a neatly trimmed brown beard with and a neatly combed brown hair along with a pair of dark tinted glasses hiding a pair of silver eyes, he watched over as he was looking at Naruto and the other boy were engaged in hand to hand combat, Naruto delivered a left hook on the boy as he went down and he climbed onto the boy.

Naruto had the boy pinned down as he began to punch the lights out of the boy, this was to show Father who's the more stronger of the two.

"Naruto, that's enough, you will need to report to the firing range immediately." Father said, he then snapped his fingers as a pair of men dragged the other boy out to be disciplined, but it seems that he was too beat up as he wanted to make sure that the assassins were in peak shape.

Naruto took an M4 carbine assault rifle and began to fire a clip full of bullets at the stationary target making sure that the bullets hit the target.

Naruto then ejected the clip as he placed it down and slapped in a fresh clip shooting some more, the bullets did their job as Naruto was efficient with the guns as he trained alongside Kiba, Choji, John, and Sauske, they wanted to be at the top of the class.

And through all the trials and hard work, they were the top ranking assassins of their class.

Later that night during lights out, one of the boys was still awake as he began to get the other boy's attention by who was laying on the bunk below him.

"Psst, did you hear, Tommy just got disposed of, Father just had one of the instructors just placed a bullet in his head then disposed of his body by throwing it into the furnace." The boy said, then second boy knew that he didn't want to end up with the same fate as Tommy.

"We need to get out of here, even if Father is going to kill us." The boy said as they gathered the other boys along with Naruto, John, Kiba, Choji, even Sauske as they began to grab some makeshift weapons, Kiba and Choji headed one way as the other boys along with Naruto, John, even Sauske.

The instructors began to pull out their guns as they began to shoot the boys and Naruto along with Sauske and John got hurt.

Naruto was laying on the ground, John placed his hand over the wound as he began to emit a strange blue aura from his hand tears began to come out of John's eyes as he was crying that he didn't want Naruto to die.

"Naruto please, take my memories, my abilities, my remaining life span, and my last name of Wick. Please live on for the both of us." John said as he gave all of his abilities along with everything that made him an assassin to Naruto, as soon as he gave all that he had, John dropped to the ground and Naruto opened his eyes knowing that John was laying there, and Naruto began to shake the deceased boy.

"John? John please, wake up!" Naruto said, but it was no use, the boy didn't respond, he gave his energy to keep Naruto alive, the instructor then pointed the gun at Naruto as he grabbed it out of the instructor's hand as he pointed it squeezing the trigger killing the instructor.

Then Naruto began to head where Father was, with the intent to kill the man that made these poor souls into what they are now.

Naruto then opened the door to Father's office with the pistol in hand as he kept it trained on the man with the intent to kill.

"My, my, Naruto, I'd never take it that you'd come this far to kill me, go ahead, I have no right to live on anymore since you resent me." Father said with open arms, But Naruto cocked the hammer on the gun and aimed for Father's head, he then squeezes the trigger as he fires a single bullet striking the man directly in the center of his forehead killing him.

"I didn't do this for me, I did this for John Wick, and as of now, I'm Naruto Wick." Naruto said as he turned around and left the office while a pool of blood began to form around the late Father.

"What do we do now?" Kiba asked, and Naruto knew of a man who could take them in and mentor them into becoming professional assassins.

Soon after, the boys soon found themselves under the mentorship of Marcus, and they grew up to be the assassins that they are today.

[Present day…]

Naruto then pulled out his P30L as he cocked it and with the intent to find out who's been taking up the mantle of Father and why he killed Helen along with their unborn daughter, Naruto couldn't forgive let alone didn't want to, he wanted to find him and make him face his own justice, Naruto was ready to do this, but little to Naruto's knowledge, someone of his past will come back to haunt him.

[To Be Continued…]

(A/N: Well guys, here's another chapter, I'm going to do a bit of imagination next chapter as Naruto tries to find the one who poisoned Helen with a man made virus killing her along with the unborn daughter that they would've had, but I'm looking forward to writing the Red Circle shootout along with Naruto saying that he's back, this story isn't dead, I just put it on the back burner for a while, but I'm going to ignore all the critics who say that I'm trolling John Wick, that's nothing more than white noise to me. Anyway, to those who have faved and followed this since the start, thank you, you have earned my dire respect. So until the next chapter, this is BloodyDemon666 saying see you in the next chapter!)
