Disclaimer: We own nothing relating to Naruto or Inuyasha or some various Final Fantasy references, and now Samurai Spirits/Samurai Showdown.

A.N.-I'll get back to the story but every so often I'll throw two side stories into this introducing characters from the Samurai Showdown series, the Kazama Sibilings, and Galford since they're all ninjas and I'll tie them into being blood realtives of Naruto. What type of relative from which side of his parents family...eh you'll just have to read and find out.

Elsewhere in the Naruto world a month and a half before the beginning of the Chuunin Exam finals in the Hidden Mist Village was experiencing a normal day as it always had, with the exception of a young man with spiky fire red hair, bluish-gray eyes, wearing a black and red hakama, baggy red pants, tan sandles, a dark brown shash, a Mist ninja forehead protector tied around his left arm, and a ninja sword strapped to his back pacing back and forth while a younger woman with long black hair, dark brown eyes, wearing a long white gown and stood idly by watching him. Finally the man stopped his pacing and sat next to the girl while tilting his head up to the sky.

"I'm so pissed at the Mizukage right now." Growled the young man.

"Calm down Kazuki." Said the girl.

"How can I? I just overheard that I'm really the son of a fucking fire demon and that I'm starting to be considered so dangerous that they're planning to seal me inside a weapon!"

"Demon or not, Kazuki you'll always be my brother. Even if the demon Enja was your father, he still layed with OUR mother."

"Thanks Hazuki, but I just don't want to end up like my real father." Muttered Kazuki as he pulled his sword out and gazed at it.

"Why don't you leave?"

"Remember I'm number four of the Seven Mist Swordsmen, and we already had two of our guys run off and become missing-nins, and if I do run they'll send Mr. Perfect to hunt me down."

"Sogetsu loves you too much to kill you." Sighed Hazuki as she layed her head against Kazuki's arm.

"Then what about his ex?" Said Kazuki dryly as he remembered how his older brother killed his ex-girlfriend that became a missing nin for only a few days.

"You're family."

"He has a funny way of showing it." Muttered Kazuki as he stretched.

"Oh stop it, how about we both leave?"

"What?"

"Yes, remember that I'm not a ninja so I could hire you to escort me wherever I want."

"And as soon as we get far enough away we could fake our deaths and leave this village behind us for good, Hazuki you're brilliant!"

"Thank you brother, but where should we go?"

"How about Kohona?"

"Why Kohona?"

"I remember before mom died, she was telling me and Sogetsu about how our older cousin moved there and marrying the Hokage a few days before you were born."

"You think it'll be alright?"

"Eh, it'll be alright she'll help us out once I explain to her what's happening."

"Alright then."

Later on that same day, Hazuki had hired Kazuki to escort her to the outskirts of Mist country. Both siblings were happy as they began their journey to leave the village behind them forever, sure they knew they were going to miss somethings, but with the Mizukage planning on sealing Kazuki's essence inside of a weapon leaving wasn't as hard as they thought. About a week into their journey the two were encountered by three figures in black cloaks, with animal masks marked with the symbol of the Mist village standing before them.

"Kazama Kazuki, under the orders of the Mizukage you are to return at once to the village." Said one of the hunter-nins.

"What if I don' wanna go?" Said Kazuki lazily.

"Then we are told to kill you."

"Hazuki go off to the side while I take care of these bastards." Ordered Kazuki as Hazuki obeyed.

"Do you really think you can take all three of us on?"

"Sure, KATON! HOONO BUSHININ NO JUTSU!" Screamed Kazuki as his sword ignited on fire as several wisps of flame leapt from his sheath and became indentical replicas of him.

"No hand seals...."

"Oh don't tell me you didn't know that I'm from an advanced bloodline?"

"It doesn't matter! SUITON! SUIRYU-DAN!" Shouted another hunter-nin as a huge stream of water washed over Kazuki and the fire clones.

"Feh, for being from an advanced bloodline the jackass forgot that fire will always lose to water."

"It's getting pretty hot...oh shit." Said the ninjas as he noticed a ball of fire heading his way.

"FUCK OFF! KATON! BOUBAKU KAEN GEKI!!" Yelled a blazing Kazuki as he charged the ninja and connected causing a massive explosion wich left nothing but a pile of ashes remaining where the hunter-nin once stood.

"What the!"

"DAIBAKU SATSU!" Shouted Kazuki once more as a surge of heat passed through his arms and into the two remaining hunter-nins ingiting them on fire.

"Kazuki are ou alright?" Asked Hazuki as she walked from the bushes and looked at her brother.

"Yeah, they thought they had me, but oh well. Seeing as how I've become a missing-nin guess I can really cut my ties to the village now." Said Kazuki as he took the forehead protector off of his arm as tossed it away.

"Kazuki..."

"Don't worry let's just go now, we got family waiting for us in Kohona. Besides it should be good since the Chuunin exam is about to begin."

"Yes." Smiled Hazuki as she and Kazuki resumed their trek to Kohona.
