Dual Blood
Don't Own Naruto
#3
"What kind of ninjutsu is that?" Sakura asked as she watched Haku wrap the
bandages to hide it.
"A secret skill. Advance bloodline," Naruto answered, "I can do myself, Haku!"
Haku let go and let Naruto wrap it himself.
"You're Haku, the Mist right?" Sakura asked as she got a real good look at him.
"Yeah," Haku said as she handed Naruto a needle.
"You're a Special Jounin right?" Sakura asked.
"Anbu too," Haku said, " You're Sakura right?" Sakura nodded. Sasuke was in a
very pissed off mood.
*******************************************************************************
Flashback
Kakashi jumped as a spinning spike of vines came at him. The vines blew up and
surrounded Kakashi.
"Now for the little brats," Kaoru said as she turned to Sakura and Sasuke. She
had a evil smile.
"Sasuke! Sakura! Take the civilians. She's out of your league," Kakashi yelled.
Sasuke seemed to be pissed.
'Itachi. Kakashi. Naruto. Now her! What have I been doing for the past years? I
refuse to letting them beat me,' Sasuke said as he stood up making seals.
"I"ll say who's in and out of my league," Sasuke said, "Katon Housenka!"
Sasuke blew out blasts of fire that were easily destroyed by vines.
"Pathetic," Kaoru commented as Sasuke dodged her vines.
"I saw Naruto use it once. Time to show I'm just as strong," Sasuke said to
himself then yelled out, "Katon Karyuu Endan!" Sasuke let out a massive blast of
fire.
"Not bad," Kaoru said as she created a wall of vines layer beyond layer. The
wall took the attack and took it out.
"That was all I had," Sasuke said as he dropped to his knees. Another effect was that
Kakashi was freed from his prison.
*******************************************************************************
'What the hell have I been doing!? I was the strongest in the academy but as a
Genin; I see people who are out of my league completely. When the hell did I get
so weak!?' Sasuke yelled to himself.
"Sasuke," Naruto said. Sasuke looked at Naruto, "I heard you tried to use the Katon
Karyuu Endan. Don't try it again. You're not even close to the level to
use it yet," Naruto stated this. Sasuke growled a bit.
"Naruto! Stop trying to sound better than Sasuke-kun! He's a 100 times better
than you!!" Sakura screamed. Naruto looked at her with a serious look. Not a goofy
look but dead serious. Sakura stopped her ranting.
"Hey Naruto! We need to talk!" Haku yelled. Naruto looked away and headed to
the Anbu squadron. Kakashi passed Naruto on the way over.
"You know he's right. He's been a Genin for two years. This would be his seventh A
Ranked mission. He seen power and deaths. You're not powerful enough to use high level
techniques like the Katon Karyuu Endan," Kakashi explained, "How did you know how to use
the technique anyways?"
"Saw Naruto use it once," Sasuke said, "I simply copied the seals,"
'He's mimicking attack. The Sharingan isn't far,' Kakashi thought, 'Is Naruto trying to
force Sasuke into awakening the Sharingan?
*******************************************************************************
"It's confirmed? Kaoru and Kyo are here?" Haku asked.
"Kyo's the one who did this to me," Naruto said as he held up his bandaged right hand.
"Kyo is of the Stone's advanced bloodlines," An Anbu said.
"I never heard that," Naruto said, "Why is it I'm being left in the dark?"
"We just received the information from the Stone," Haku answered.
"I lost my sword back there. Turned to stone. It's infected anything. I stopped it from
spread with a blast of chakra to nullify it," Naruto said.
"You got the worst chakra control I have seen," Haku joked, "You use double what you
need for techniques,"
"Shut up. I have the stamina for it so don't brother me with it," Naruto said as he used his
stone fist to punched Haku on the back of the head.
"That hurts!" Haku yelled as he held his head. The Anbu laughed. Naruto and Haku
joined in the laughter, right after Haku slapped Naruto on his head, of course.
*******************************************************************************
"Do you want to go home now?" Sakura asked hopeful.
"No," Kakashi said with his ever present smile, "We will have an Anbu team escort us as
we escort Kyoko and her workers to the sand,"
"But the Anbu can do it themselves," Sakura said desperately wanting to stay alive.
"Anyways me and Naruto have business in the Sand to do," Kakashi said.
"Who's the Haku kid?" Sasuke asked as he looked at Haku. Haku looks like she was the
same age as Sasuke and Sakura, in Anbu rank.
"Haku formerly of the Mist. She left the Mist and came to the Leaf," Kakashi said, "You
want the full story? We can't move on until Naruto's recovered,"
"Yes," Sasuke stated.
"There was a rebellion in the Mist and the Mizukage request help from it's ally the Leaf.
Team 6, Naruto's original team, was part of the attack force," Kakashi
said, "The rebellion was led by the Demon Zabuza. Zabuza's right hand was Haku. Zabuza
fought with Team 6. The first one he was able to escape but Haku was captured. Team 6 were
heavily injured so they had to rest. Haku was in a barrier ninjutsu known as the fire prison,"
Kakashi told them.
"If Haku was criminal then why is she a Anbu?" Sakura asked.
"Zabuza attacked again and this time was killed. Haku had no reason to fight
anymore. The Mist was planning on killing Haku but Naruto interfered and had a request; that
Haku would be let into the Leaf," Kakashi said, "Haku was let to be in the Leaf. With her
advanced bloodline he became part of the Leaf and Anbu. Why Naruto did it is unknown. All of
the water element Jutsu Naruto knows he learned from Haku,"
*******************************************************************************
Naruto opened his eyes to see sunlight. Naruto sat up while yawning and cracking his
neck. His right arm became a blur as he held out a kunai to Haku's throat.
"Don't even dare," Naruto said refering to the water Haku had over Naruto's
head.
"You stink and you need to cool down," Haku said. She jumped away as she poured the
water on Naruto. Naruto sat on the ground, sputtering and was completely soaked. Naruto then
growled and jumped up and chased after Haku, laughing and throwing random insults.
"Those two act like little kids," Sakura commented. A flash came as Naruto tried to torch
Haku with fire.
"Immature idiots," Sasuke said, and a giggle was heard. Everyone's head snapped
to the source of the giggle, and it turned out to be Kakashi giggling and blushing while reading
his book.
*******************************************************************************
"The blonde kid was tough. He should be a statue by now though," Kyo said as Kaoru
bandaged up his wounds.
"That Kakashi was tough. I had him but one of those brats freed him," Kaoru said as she
finished the bandages.
"Sir! Ma'am!" One of their Grass yelled as he ran, "Leaf Anbu are traveling with the
group with the scroll. The boy has recover from the Medusa Glare!"
"That's impossible! The Medusa bloodline is the pride of the Stone and you're telling me
that a little boy defeated it!?" Kyo yelled as he stood up.
"Do you know the boy's name?" Kaoru asked. The Grass-nin shook and swallowed
loudly.
"Uzu....maki Nar...uto of ...the Le...af," The grass shook terrified.
"Uzumaki, Naruto of the Leaf? The kid who killed Zabuza?" Kaoru asked, "Who are the
genins, then?"
"Sasuke Uchiha and Sakura Haruno," The Grass answered quickly.
"Sasuke of the Uchiha clan? Does he have the Sharingan?" Kaoru asked.
"Unknown ma'am," The Grass said.
"Get out of here," Kyo said. The Grass ran out of there as fast as possible.
"This does not go well. Kakashi is well known for his Sharingan and we have an actual
Uchiha. A true heir to the Sharingan to deal with," Kaoru said looked out
of the window.
"Kakashi, the Copy ninja. Naruto, the one who broke my glance. This Uchiha kid, a heir
of the Sharingan," Kyo stated.
"Now the Leaf Anbu are here to assist them,"
"This doesn't look good for our plan to capture the scroll of Dark Blood,"
"If we can read even the first little bit, we have more power than them easily,"
"What if they read it? They can read all of it before we can get a hold of it?"
"They wouldn't know it. Remember it is written in ancient script. Few, including us, can
only read it. The Stone and Grass will rise to their original power and statures."
"That is our mission. We're doing this for the best of our villages. Let's go."
*******************************************************************************
"We'll arrive at the Sand village in one day if we run, two days if we walk. We'll have to
cross a desert." Naruto said as he looked at the map.
"Wouldn't the desert be safe. You can see everything. No trees or anything to block your
sight?" Haku asked.
"We're facing other ninjas. The sand can easily move and covere them. We could walk
on one and not even know it," Naruto said, "This is my second visit to the Sand. The Sand-Nins
are few in numbers but very high in skill,"
"So we ask for their help?" Sakura asked, hopeful.
"I'll have to talk to the Kazekage to explain things," Naruto said, "I just hope he doesn't
help,"
"What!? Why?" Sakura asked.
"It's Naruto's code. You try to kill him. He'll kill you," Haku explained, "Only four
people have tried to kill him who he hasn't killed yet. Including myself,"
"Shut up Haku," Naruto said as he continued to look over the map. Not far an Anbu
stood beside Kakashi on the look out.
"Shouldn't you being doing that?" the Anbu asked Kakashi.
"I may be Naruto's instructor but, there's little I can teach him let along lead him,"
Kakashi answered, "Why isn't Naruto the captian? He seems like a good choice,"
"Right now it's looks like it but in battle Naruto acts on his guts and is too focused. Haku
is always clam and can give orders in battle," The Anbu answered, "Naruto is so focused on the
fight, that sometimes he'll miss things, but fortunatly, he'd recover from what he
misses,"
"What can you tell me Takato? I need something to teach him," Kakashi said to his old
comrade.
"Naruto has the worst Chakra control there is. If he ever learns to control his charka
right; He'll be a monster without you knowing what happened. Naruto has a stamina higher than
any of us; He'll soon reach the Sages' level and not much later rival the kage level,"
"Ok. I'll give him the tree excerise," Kakashi said, "Anyways Sasuke need's it as well. I
don't know about Sakura through,"
"Hey Kakashi-Sensei! It's time to go!" Sakura yelled. Kakashi smiled and nodded as he
headed over. He noticed Sasuke was in the shadows. He looked a bit pissed
despite his emotionless mask.
"Come on. The faster we finish this mission, the faster we can get back to training,"
Kakashi said.
"Like Naruto needs to train," Sasuke growled.
"Everyone has a weakness that must overcome," Kakashi stated, "Even Naruto has
weaknesses he has to overcome."
*******************************************************************************
"Hey Haku," Sakura said, "Can I ask you something?"
"Yeah. What?" Haku asked.
"My mom told me I could learn a lot from Naruto. Do you think so?"
"Naruto knows an immerse amount of Jutsu. The question is if you're willing to stand
the guy but you may be the one who teaches Naruto. What he need to know to survive,"
"What do you mean by that? I don't know any powerful jutsu,"
"Being a ninja isn't all about Jutsu. There're other factors to deal with,"
"Like what?'
"I"m not telling. I'm not your instructor. Ask Kakashi. He's better than me!"
"You know Naruto, though, right?" Sasuke asked.
"More or less," Haku answered , "Why?"
"How powerful is he?" Sasuke demanded.
"Out of your league. Don't try and demand anything from me," Haku said as images of
her past came up. Images of demands from people, "I don't like it when people demand anything
of me, ok?" Haku looked at Sasuke, an angry expression on her face. Sasuke looked a bit angry
for Haku's response.
"Sasuke! Haku! Cut it out!" Kakashi yelled, "We're allies and we don't fight amongst
ourselves!" Sasuke and Haku glared at each other and turned back to business.
*******************************************************************
Naruto shook his head.
'Sasuke doesn't get or want to get along with anyone. It's like Sasuke's looking for a
fight,' Naruto thought, 'Too bad Kakashi-Sensei you're wrong about
something,'
********************************************************************
"Today wasn't very eventful," Haku said as he sat down at the fire. They were in the
desert. Another day and they would be at the Sand village.
"Haku," Naruto asked.
"Hey?" Haku asked
"Plan B," Naruto said. Haku looked at the Anbu from the top of her sockets. The
Anbu headed out into the desert night.
"Where are they going?" Sakura as she popped her head out of the tent.
"Sasuke. You said before you wanted to kill someone?" Naruto inquired as he leaned
toward Sasuke, "You don't understand one thing; You aren't such strong shit. You're a genin-A
low rank bottom of the barrel ninja. That's why genins are in teams, So they watch out for each
other as they grow. You are a Leaf-Nin. Act like it!"
Sasuke snapped and punched Naruto.
Naruto's head reeled back a bit than stopped as he grinned.
"What are you grinning about idiot?" Sasuke asked pissed.
"Hard to hear someone tell you what's really under your mask isn't it? You are just a
weak, scared little boy who think's he can be in the grown up world,"
Naruto said as his foot found itself in Sasuke's stomach. Sasuke flew back a few feet
away.
"Kakashi! Stop them!" Sakura screamed but Kakashi made no move to act. Sakura
turned and ran but a Anbu stopped her.
"Let them be," The Anbu stated. Naruto marched toward Sasuke.
"I have been fighting people who's power would simply overwhelm a kid like you,"
Naruto said as he came up to Sasuke, "You want to show you can fight Itachi; Show me,"
"Katon Karyuu Endan!" Sasuke yelled as he let out the dragon fire.
"Suiton Suiryuudan no Jutsu!" Naruto countered with it's watery counterpart.
The water engulfed up the fire and hit Sasuke. Sasuke was knocked back. Struggling to
his feet, Sasuke glared.
"Lesson one, Sasuke; Know who're fighting. Make them use their true strength before
you use your real strength," Naruto said, "Don't underestimate who you're fighting, you can't
judge one by how they look or act," Naruto appeared as Sasuke slowly tried to get to his feet.
Naruto kicked Sasuke back to the ground.
"Lesson two. Know your limits. If your opponent is too powerful, run away,"
Naruto stated.
"Kai's old rules of the ninja," Kakashi chuckled.
"Lesson three. If you fight someone use everything you can to your advantage. Here's an
example; The sand is sticking to your wet clothes," Naruto said.
Sasuke looked down to see that the sand was sticking to his clothes weighing him
down, slowing him down.
"That concludes the lesson," Naruto said as he turned and headed back to the tent.
"Katon Housenka!" Sasuke yelled as he shot out a couple of fireballs at Naruto. The
blond easily dodged them.
"Clever," Naruto said as the sand under him turned to glass from the heat.
"The shurikens that were hidden in the fireballs hit the glass," Naruto jumped away as
the glass broke under him.
"But I saw it coming," Naruto said as he turned again for the tent. Naruto passed Haku on
the way.
"A bit harsh," Haku said. Naruto looked at Haku out of the side of his eye.
"The world is harsh; There's no time to fun and games, only time for seriousness and
focus now," Naruto said. Haku looked at Sasuke as he pounded the ground in frustration.
"Sasuke," Kakashi said, "Sakura. Time to train,"
******************************************************************************
"Time to attack," Kyo stated. Dozens of eyes opened, ready for a fight.
Author's Note
I wanted to thank my pre-readers for this chapter X2Darklord and Unclear-Destiny.
Here's the chatper of Dual Blood. Nothing else to say really expectwhat's under.
Replies to Items:
HAKU
This is mostly to my pre-readers. In this fanfic Hak is a girl. One in the manga he looked
and acted like a girl. Like Naruto said Haku's more girly or cuter than Sakura. (Depending on
which one you read) Add in that's not a lot of strong remale ninjas in Naruto really expect
Tsunade really.
PLOT
What plot? Remember this was an experimental fanfic. I'm mostly writing this as I go
along really. I adapt my work depending on reviews. This part of the story is to help Sakura fit
into Team 7 better. Sasuke is out of her league and Naruto's out of Sasuke's league.
CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT
Develop them into what? I never thought of how they should change really expect let
them get rid of some weaknesses.
RELATIONSHIPS so far: (Not coupling)
Naruto/Sasuke-Hate each other's guts completely. Naruto's brothering with Sasuke because of his
former guardian Ruki Uchiha.
Naruto/Sakura-What relationship? In the manga the only realy interaction the two had were
Naruto asking Sakura on dates or praising her.
Naruto/Haku-They're good friends. The first and second in command of the Leaf Anbu.
Naruto/Kakashi-Kakashi doesn't know to approach Naruto. Naruto's full growth is unknown to
Kakashi.
EVOLVING NINJA
The evolving ninja's work will come into play in the next chapter.
SECOND BLOODLINE
That's seems to be the question of most minds. I haven't completely
settled on the Hyuga bloodline or a new one.
Don't Own Naruto

"Where are they going?" Sakura as she popped her head out of the tent.
"Sasuke. You said before you wanted to kill someone?" Naruto inquired as he leaned
toward Sasuke, "You don't understand one thing; You aren't such strong shit. You're a genin-A
low rank bottom of the barrel ninja. That's why genins are in teams, So they watch out for each
other as they grow. You are a Leaf-Nin. Act like it!"
Sasuke snapped and punched Naruto.
Naruto's head reeled back a bit than stopped as he grinned.
"What are you grinning about idiot?" Sasuke asked pissed.
"Hard to hear someone tell you what's really under your mask isn't it? You are just a
weak, scared little boy who think's he can be in the grown up world,"
Naruto said as his foot found itself in Sasuke's stomach. Sasuke flew back a few feet
away.
"Kakashi! Stop them!" Sakura screamed but Kakashi made no move to act. Sakura
turned and ran but a Anbu stopped her.
"Let them be," The Anbu stated. Naruto marched toward Sasuke.
"I have been fighting people who's power would simply overwhelm a kid like you,"
Naruto said as he came up to Sasuke, "You want to show you can fight Itachi; Show me,"
"Katon Karyuu Endan!" Sasuke yelled as he let out the dragon fire.
"Suiton Suiryuudan no Jutsu!" Naruto countered with it's watery counterpart.
The water engulfed up the fire and hit Sasuke. Sasuke was knocked back. Struggling to
his feet, Sasuke glared.
"Lesson one, Sasuke; Know who're fighting. Make them use their true strength before
you use your real strength," Naruto said, "Don't underestimate who you're fighting, you can't
judge one by how they look or act," Naruto appeared as Sasuke slowly tried to get to his feet.
Naruto kicked Sasuke back to the ground.
"Lesson two. Know your limits. If your opponent is too powerful, run away,"
Naruto stated.
"Kai's old rules of the ninja," Kakashi chuckled.
"Lesson three. If you fight someone use everything you can to your advantage. Here's an
example; The sand is sticking to your wet clothes," Naruto said.
Sasuke looked down to see that the sand was sticking to his clothes weighing him
down, slowing him down.
"That concludes the lesson," Naruto said as he turned and headed back to the tent.
"Katon Housenka!" Sasuke yelled as he shot out a couple of fireballs at Naruto. The
blond easily dodged them.
"Clever," Naruto said as the sand under him turned to glass from the heat.
"The shurikens that were hidden in the fireballs hit the glass," Naruto jumped away as
the glass broke under him.
"But I saw it coming," Naruto said as he turned again for the tent. Naruto passed Haku on
the way.
"A bit harsh," Haku said. Naruto looked at Haku out of the side of his eye.
"The world is harsh; There's no time to fun and games, only time for seriousness and
focus now," Naruto said. Haku looked at Sasuke as he pounded the ground in frustration.
"Sasuke," Kakashi said, "Sakura. Time to train,"
******************************************************************************
"Time to attack," Kyo stated. Dozens of eyes opened, ready for a fight.
Author's Note
I wanted to thank my pre-readers for this chapter X2Darklord and Unclear-Destiny.
Here's the chatper of Dual Blood. Nothing else to say really expectwhat's under.
Replies to Items:
HAKU
This is mostly to my pre-readers. In this fanfic Hak is a girl. One in the manga he looked
and acted like a girl. Like Naruto said Haku's more girly or cuter than Sakura. (Depending on
which one you read) Add in that's not a lot of strong remale ninjas in Naruto really expect
Tsunade really.
PLOT
What plot? Remember this was an experimental fanfic. I'm mostly writing this as I go
along really. I adapt my work depending on reviews. This part of the story is to help Sakura fit
into Team 7 better. Sasuke is out of her league and Naruto's out of Sasuke's league.
CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT
Develop them into what? I never thought of how they should change really expect let
them get rid of some weaknesses.
RELATIONSHIPS so far: (Not coupling)
Naruto/Sasuke-Hate each other's guts completely. Naruto's brothering with Sasuke because of his
former guardian Ruki Uchiha.
Naruto/Sakura-What relationship? In the manga the only realy interaction the two had were
Naruto asking Sakura on dates or praising her.
Naruto/Haku-They're good friends. The first and second in command of the Leaf Anbu.
Naruto/Kakashi-Kakashi doesn't know to approach Naruto. Naruto's full growth is unknown to
Kakashi.
EVOLVING NINJA
The evolving ninja's work will come into play in the next chapter.
SECOND BLOODLINE
That's seems to be the question of most minds. I haven't completely
settled on the Hyuga bloodline or a new one.
