Missions andMeetings: I WILL NOT BOW TO YOU!

The Sun descended slowly over the horizon setting the sky ablaze with wild colors. From their hidden perch Cell Thirteen waited and planed for the nights slaughter. Unlike most Shadow Nins, Naruto preferred working with his swords and skills. He surveyed the horizon, looking intently at the one of the four main encampments of Gatou Enterprise's goons.

BOOM!

The explosion of in the southeastern gate of the town signified their attack. Drawing Kitetsu and the Dragon sword, he nodded to his team mates and took of towards their attack point.

"Wolf den to Fury, Wolf den to Fury, come in over" he heard from his helmet's communication system.

"Yes?"

"Secondary objective has been confirmed. Continue on with primary."

"Copy that."

"This is going to be troublesome" Shikamaru supplied from his left.

"Yeah. But I finally get to see if all the training would make a difference." Said Choji.

"Team leader, this is Shadow team nine, we have breeched the town." Said Anko from her communicator.

"Good, inform Assault command for further instructions. Inform all teams, from now on were going silent." Replied Naruto.

Reaching the encampment with the sun on their backs, Cell Thirteen went unnoticed until they struck. Choji, drawing the grenade launcher from his back sent a shot propelling through the camp and striking the piles of gun powder lying nearby their enemy's only boat.

Naruto quickly spun into action. Swinging his swords around in deadly dance, he quickly dispatched several guardsman, caught off guard by the chaos. Continuing his dance further into the camp, he paved the way for his two teammates. The enemy how ever quickly reorganized and had them surrounded. Seeing Choji and Shikamaru needing weapons for close combat, he drew the Dabilarho and a set of Vigoorian flails and threw them at them.

He was stunned how ever when he sensed the weapons react to their handlers.

Choji, upon catching the Dabilarho was amazed at the weapons sheer size. Amazement quickly turned to surprise as the weapon's sentient spirit surged its self through his body and mind. Unseen because of his Spartan II armor, his body went through changes. His muscles increased in size and density, his mind was assaulted by the sentient spirit. And memories of the sword previous owners found their way through the sword and on to his mind. Just a quickly as it happened, the surge of power was completed. He opened his eyes once again to observe his enemy. The adrenalin rush he felt earlier washed away, his mind cleared and his eyes narrowed.

The Dabilarho had found it master………..

The same thing happened to Shikamaru. Unlike Choji, however his muscles grew dense but they did not enlarge. His bones also hardened and lighted at the same time. Like Choji, his brain was assaulted by years worth of memory from the weapons previous owner. 'This is getting interesting'

Naruto watched in awe at the changes in his friends. He turned quickly though, to intercept strikes from two goons, who were trying to catch him off guard. Blocking both strikes, he quickly spun around, decapitating one of the goons. The other attacked in anger at his lost counterpart. Anger quickly turned to surprise as Naruto caught him in a vertical slash with the dragon sword. Catching the goon, yet again, with an upward vertical slash, he sent him flying towards the heavens. He then quickly launched himself following the goon, and through a series of lightning fast strikes, sliced him to pieces (Storm of the Heavenly Dragon).

Choji's techniques, however, lacked the grace and speed that Naruto displayed. He slashed in horizontal strikes, slicing five goons at once. Hearing a horse running towards him fast, he launched himself upwards. Coming down, he slashed vertically, cutting the horse and his rider in half. He then turned slowly inspecting his handy work. His observation was cut short when ten goons ran toward him. He set his aim, and then threw the giant Dabilarho at them. The sword went through five, turned around like a boomerang and dispatched the other five, coming to rest at its master's hands.

Shikamaru marveled at his own speed, and strength. The Vigoorian Flails, whistled through the air, decapitating and dismembering every single person that came within his reach. Turning around in a circular motion, they slashed of another goon's head. He turned around yet again, to kick another opponent upwards, continuing the combo, he jumped upwards meeting his opponent in the air and sliced him to pieces with the weapon's blades.

Team Gai under the leadership of Hyuuga Neji, codenamed Lone Wolf, entered the town. Their soul purpose was to find and confirm their target's safety. He found Kakashi and Zabuza, at the southern gate, defending against almost a hundred of Gato's goons. He directed Tenten, code name Blades, and Lee, code named Beast, to the center of the town to check up on the injured. His standard armor was a Phantom Three ( Shikamaru's ninja armor), with pistol holsters hanging on his hips, shoulders, and above his knee caps. He launched himself into the air, then landed in the tight circle that had encompassed the two Jounins. Activating his Byakugan, he drew two Desert Eagles from his side and entered into his own original battle stance, the Gun Kata ( If you have seen Equilibrium, than you know what it is). In blur of speed and grace, he set forth on his objective. Shooting down his opponents while avoiding incoming arrow and protecting the two tired Jounins the same time.

Elsewhere, Mitarashi Anko, A.K.A Lady Death, came across Team seven, who were currently helping her old rival Kurenai in a fight, along side some other villagers. She spread out her team to help out in a tight formation, while she herself drew the P-90 from the side of her specially designed armor ( Imagine her In Solid Snake's Nano-Suit). She casually walked down right to the injured Kurenai's side and leveled her weapon. She pulled the trigger, completely and utterly annihilating the threat.

Gato's henchman, realizing they were out matched and outgunned, turn tailed and ran.

"Strike force one head to the town center, if you encounter any more threats there, then eliminate them. Fury out." With that all four teams that made up strike force one drew back their weapons and set off, escorting the injured.

Upon meeting at the town center, they heard a loud explosion coming from the forest. Strike force two had found its target and done its job. The distinct yelling of jutsus, screams of pain, followed by gunshots was heard after.

Naruto casually approached Kakashi.

"Where's Gato?" He asked.

"He left about five hours ago." Came the reply from the lezzy Jounin.

"How many injured?"

"One Jounin, three genins and an unconfirmed amount of civilians."

As the conversation went on, a vary mad Sasuke approached the masked Shadow nins. Drawing a kunai from his holsters, he set forth and readied him self to strike at the Shadow nin's apparent leader.

From the side, Rock Lee entered feeling vary proud of himself. His custom made green colored light weight and spandex like armor was not like the rest. He knew it was weak but this was because it was built for speed. With his speed and skill in Taijutsu, pulse the retractable blades from his wrists, was all he needed to fight. The lone PP7 that hung from his right thigh was just for when things got desperate. That was why he was feeling particularly proud, he had defeated fifty people with out firing a single shot. He slowly drew the gun to inspect it, never noticing the banana peel that was on the ground in front of him. Stepping on it, he slid and came to the ground, landing on his back with the gun safety off. He was paralyzed as he heard the shot, than the scream that came afterwards.

Uchiha Sasuke drew back his arm, and set himself to throw. Right then a lowed BANG! Was heard and then pain. It was unlike anything Uchiha Sasuke has ever felt. It bit into him and then started to burn. It was almost as if he was stabbed with a heated kunai, that was as if the heated kunai was embedded into his flesh without cooling off. He let out a loud scream and then passed out from the pain. The last thing he heard was laughter, than the voice of Sakura yelling at someone. He felt angry, he felt helpless, and he felt weak.

Uchiha Sasuke had been shot in the ass.

"Hokage sama, the mission was a success, though Gato managed to escape capture. All agents are presents and accounted for. Only two injuries are confirmed" Asuma paused to hear Sakura pounding on Lee "make that three."

"Good, Asuma kun. Bring them in…….And good work." With that the Sandaime left towards the Hokage tower.

One week later.

"Is it me or are you getting worse at this game?" asked Shikamaru.

"Hey, its not my fault that your are a tactical genius." Replied a very miffed Choji. Losing to Shikamaru in another strategy game was not vary fun. Sure he rocked in Halo 4, but when it comes to strategy, no one could beat Shikamaru. Heck, even Naruto had a hard time with the lazy genius.

"Are you ever gonna stop playing that game? We got a chunin exam to worry about you know." Said Naruto from the kitchen. Getting his two team mates to room with him at the mansion was fun, but come on, who wants to stay indoors and play games all day.

"Do you even have to train Naruto kun, Its not like the genin for this year are any good." Said Hinata.

"Yeah, most of the this years genins aren't that strong. And I think Lee made it pretty clear who was boss to the Uchiha brat" said Hinabi. Neji and Tenten laughed, remembering the sight of Sasuke screaming like a girl, while Lee just blushed.

"Yeah, that bishonen screamed like a total fag." Laughed Choji, who was coming in for more chips.

"Yes, I agree. And remind me to steer clear of an armed Lee." Said Neji.

"Hey, I told you guys that it was an accident, how could you not belive the words of your comrade, the beautiful green beast of Konoha." Said Lee.

"Its not that we don't belive you Lee, its just that you're an even grater danger when you hold a gun." Said Tenten, who had just stopped giggling.

"It would be troublesome, if Sakura and Ino found out about Lee shooting Sasuke in the ass." Said Shikamaru.

"Yeah, I know… I heard that that bastard actually wanted to join Shadow Hunters." Said Naruto.

"I doubt he would even get the consent of the Hokage…We need competent agents, not power hungry bastards with their own fan club." Said Neji.

"Look whose talking." Remarked Tenten.

"Hey! I've changed you know!"

The group laughed at Neji. The boy, now matter how changed he was would never stop being too serious.

"About the fan club thing." Said Choji.

"Yeah, what about it." Asked Naruto.

"Well you see, remember when the Hokage asked me, Shikamaru, Neji, Tenten, and Lee to tell our parents about the our involvement in the program."

"You didn't"

"Hey, its not like I wasn't trying to protect you guys…Its just that, they tortured me…..They said that I would be banned from the BBQ restaurant if I didn't tell them what team I'm in and who were my team mates."

"Well its not like we're gonna have much trouble right? Umm…..Neji what's with the look?" asked a very curious Naruto. He just couldn't understand how Neji, one of his greatest subordinates, master of the gun kata, and genius of their year's class could be so afraid of in a bunch of girls.

"Don't even say that Naruto. Do you have a death wish or some thing…………….Fan clubs……Their the vilest….most evil……force in the world…..their an ancient curse that has been bestowed on all Hyuuga heirs…" said a very terrified Neji.

"Yes, Naruto kun. They are evil….They will stop at nothing to get what they want…..You better pray that they will not get to you…..If they do, they'll traumatize you……..for life.." said a very serious Hinata. Having been on the receiving end of the affections of a group of fan boys was not a very good experience.

"Pft, Its not like their gonna rip of my cloths or anything" said Naruto.

"DON'T SAY THAT" yelled the two Hyuugas.

In the office of the Hokage, the Sandaime and Hisashi was having a talk with the Kasekage of the sand.

"So, you think my son would be able get well out here?" asked the Kasekage.

"Yes, with the right people and the right team, he should be able to get over his fear of intimacy." Said the Hokage.

"What about Naruto kun, do you think he would accept his duty? I mean, I'm from a noble house and even I didn't like what had happened to me at first" said Hisashi.

"It must be done. In order to unite the Leaf and the Sand, a traditional marriage agreement must be enacted. The treaty was made by his grandfather, and his father before him had sought to unite both villages, if the snake had not shown his head that day then things would have taken a different course. But alas, it was not to be." Said the Hokage.

"A truly great tragedy, such a noble man should not have faced death so early in life…….." said the kasekage. Arashi had been on of the greatest shinobi in the country of fire. Should he have lived than the Sand and the Leaf would have been united into a great village by a marriage to one of the daughters of the Sand. His wife having died while giving birth to Naruto was a great tragedy, but he was not deterred. He had found a lover in the sand and they were to be married if Kyuubi had not been invoked. But now, the standing contract was put on the shoulders of Naruto, he is still the last surviving member of the old Uzumaki clan and according to the contract only one with Uzumaki blood is to be entered into the agreement.

Elsewhere in the world, Itachi and Kasime walked briskly in tea country. They were lost because Kasime had insisted that they did not need a map. Itachi was truly pissed right now, he had been chased by fan girls, almost raped by a crazy fan boy, and even managed to invoke the wrath of one of the greatest dragons still alive, how Kasime got them lost for the forty second time he did not know.

What he did know though was that he should have taken a right at Albakery.
