A/N: Well, I hope that I introduced the characters enough because that stuff is over. Now it's time for fighting! The next few chapters are definitely going to be action packed. Oh, and if you don't like the Uchiha's, this chapter is all them. Bold=flashback. On with the fic!

Episode 6: Surprise assault! Special Dragon Kick!

"So um, Uu, was it?" Renku asked. Uu looked to him, his long nose pointing at him. "Where exactly are we taking you?"

"Well," Uu answered, his voice sounding fragile, "You're taking me to Lake Mizuumi, and then you'll be done."

"How easy." Renku thought. It was easy though. Considering this was a D Rank mission, there would be no actual battling, and it would only take until about sunset to get to Lake Mizuumi. It seemed like this mission was going to be just as boring as the rest.

Right now, they were walking through the forest that surrounded Konoha. After meeting Uu, they had packed their stuff and went north, where he directed them. The noon sun was shining directly down on them, but the light was filtered by the trees' leaves.

"Lake Mizuumi?" Shikari asked. Ken nodded. "Isn't that near Yuko village?"

Ken flashed a grin, his blue eyes understanding. "Sure, we could visit there if you want."

Shikari smiled, yet Anko was disgusted. Shikari really got on her nerves sometimes, so she began to glare at her. Shikari, noticing this, began to glare back. Just when it looked like things were about to get ugly, Renku spoke up.

"Uh...I think we're being followed."

"What!?" Uu looked around, horrified. Who was following them? Was it even human? Was it dangerous?

"Yes, we are." Ken responded, talking silently and calmly. "But don't let them know we know. I need to deduce if it's dangerous or not."

Anko whirled around. "Finally, a ninja battle." She thought. All of those missions had been quite boring to her. She knew she could do those. What she didn't know, is if she could do this. And that's what excited her. A challenge.

"Turn around Anko." Shikari said.

"Oh shut up." Anko replied. "It's probably not dangerous."

"But what if it is?" Uu asked with a shiver. "You guys are getting paid to protect me. Remember that."

"Oh be quiet old man." Renku smirked.

Ken, through this, was looking around. He had sworn he'd seen that tree before. But he could be wrong, they were in a forest after all. But those markings on that tree looked so similar. He looked to the left, noticing the marking again. They were in some sort of genjutsu.

"Stop." Ken held his hand up to emphasize the importance. "Someone is using genjutsu on us." A few gasps came from the students and the old man. "Don't worry though. I don't think the person who is using this knows we know."

As they began to walk on further, Ken felt the Genjutsu fade. "Wonderful..." He thought, looking around for any sign of life other than his team and the old man. That's when he heard it. It sounded like something spinning really fast. Something metal...like a shuriken!

"Everyone back!" He yelled, throwing his arms out. The old man and the genins jumped back, surprised at the sudden outburst. Where they would've been a few seconds later, a huge shuriken was embedded in the ground.

"Seems like I missed." A deep voice said, and soon after, the source was found. It had appeared next to the shuriken: a large well-built boy, probably a little older than the genins, with black hair in a pony tail and large eyes with small pupils. He had on a grey suit that covered his body.

"That old man," He said, taking the shuriken out of the ground. "He's mine. Move."

"There's more ahead." Ken thought. "Stronger ones." Ken picked up the old man, putting him on his shoulder. The old man began to struggle.

"Think you can catch up?" He asked. The three genins nodded. "Perfect." Ken then jumped into the trees and away, the yelling of the old man fading into the distance.

"Well that's my cue." The black haired boy said, bracing himself for a jump.

"Oh no." Anko began to finger the hilt of the blade. "We're going to stop you. Uchiha formation!"

"Oh?" The boy began to laugh, putting his shuriken on his back. "Fine, I'll humor you for a little while. But I can't take too long."

With a yell of "Chiken!" Anko had thrown her sword, and it had quickly multiplied. Being much better at genjutsu than before, she had produced about twenty now. He seemed to be having trouble dodging them all, being so big, and when he had finished with them all, he was kicked in the face by Renku. Renku quickly jumped back into the trees, and the swords flew up above the boy and descended upon him. He looked up just in time to see a sword go right through him.

"Hah! Genjutsu!" He exclaimed as all of the swords went through him. All except for one. The real sword fell right by his shoulder, slashing him.

Then Renku was back down from the trees, jumping into the air and kicking him three times in the chest before landing back on his feet. After a viscous spinning punch in the face, Renku grabbed Anko's sword and threw it back to her before jumping back into the trees.

"Katon!" Shikari yelled, running up to the boy. "Gokakyuu no Jutsu!"

A huge flame trailed from the hole her fingers made out in front of her. It hit the little grass on the dirt road, and flew out to the sides hitting trees too. When it was over, everything was scorched but the boy. He just stood there with his shuriken spinning in front of him. He had blocked all of the flames.

"You all are quite weak." He stopped his shuriken from spinning and threw it up into the trees. "You need to train more."

Renku fell from the trees, a loose branch quickly following him. The brown haired youth smiled as his shuriken came back to him. Catching it, he pointed to them all.

"I am Doza the Earthquake you fools! I won't be defeated!"

Anko yelled a battle cry and charged forth, slashing at him. He easily met her slashes with his shuriken and punched her in the stomach. She bent over, clutching her stomach for a second, before coming back up. She slashed again, and it was blocked. Then she was gone.

Doza looked around, trying hard to find her, but couldn't. Where had she gone? He was looking for her so much that he hadn't noticed the vines entangling him until it was too late. In seconds he was covered in vines up to his neck, his shuriken on the ground. They were slowly choking him, but he managed a smile.

"Idiot!" Doza yelled, closing his eyes. After opening his eyes, the vines were gone, and Anko was back in front of him, her sword and his shuriken still deadlocked.

Anko screamed as he punched her hard in the stomach again, sending her flying. He was just about to throw his shuriken and finish her off when he heard Shikari.

"Katon: HiNageru no Jutsu!"

The fireball was blocked by his spinning shuriken, and he was quickly doing his own hand seals. When he finished, he grinned.

"How about a I hit you with some ninjutsu of my own!?" He yelled. "Iwaton: Jimenwaru no Jutsu (Rock Element: Earth Breaking Skill)!"

Doza slammed his hands into the ground and jagged rock spikes began to strike up from the ground. Shikari tried her best to dodge them all, but ended up getting struck by a few, them cutting her arms and legs a bit. When it was over, she was panting.

"Now for the second part!" Doza yelled, slamming his palms together.

All of the spikes shattered into a bunch of rocks, and they began to fly around Shikari. She held her hands over her head, trying to protect herself, but to no avail. A couple of hard hits had her on the ground unconscious.

"You bastard!" Renku's fist was shaking. He had just watched both of his sisters get beaten pretty badly. "I'll kill you!"

Renku charged at Doza, throwing a few punches into the larger boy's chest. Doza shrugged them all off, swinging his shuriken at Renku. Renku jumped on top of it, and when Doza brought it back, he jumped on Doza's head, stomping a couple of times before coming off. Then he kicked the other boy in the chest, and he flew back a few feet. He still didn't seem hurt though.

"You're too weak." Doza said viscously. "And now you're going to die."


He just couldn't do it. After all of his punches and kicks, Renku just couldn't break the punching bag. Ken would never recognize him now.

"Maybe if I used chakra." He thought. "Ken did say that chakra was much stronger than physical attacks. But only if you knew how to use it."

Renku decided to try it anyway. Using what he remembered from the academy, he gathered chakra into his feet. After what seemed like forever, he stopped gathering the chakra. Yelling, he shoved his foot out in front of him in a powerful kick. He could feel all of the chakra leaving his feet and expelling itself onto the bag, breaking it.

"That's it!" Renku thought. He only had a little time for this. He closed his eyes and began to focus. He could hear the other boy approaching him and quickly. He had to time it just right for as much power as he could get.

"Now you die!" Doza was upon him now.

Renku, yelling loudly, shoved his foot into Doza with as much force as he could, chakra and all. Doza was hit with the full force and was blown away down the dirt path. When he hit the ground he slid a bit, making indentations on the ground.

Renku kept his foot out, amazed at what he just did. He looked to Doza for a few moments, making sure the boy was done. He was still breathing, but he was definitely out cold. Renku put his foot down and turned around, running to his sisters.

"I need a name for that..." Renku thought. "It has to be cool...how about Dragon Kick?"

Renku slapped Anko softly a few times until she stirred. She sat up, alert; it seemed like she remembered what had happened. She looked to Doza, then to Renku questioningly. Renku nodded, answering her unasked question. She sighed, getting up, and they both ran over to Shikari.

"Shikari, get up." Anko demanded. She sighed again, slapping her a few times.

"Ow..." Shikari moaned, sitting up and rubbing her cheek. Anko had slapped a little hard.

"C'mon, there's no time to sit." Renku sounded a little excited. Finally, a little action, and he was the center! "Ken's waiting."
