Seven Years Later

Naruto was walking towards Wave Country when he spotted a family being robbed by a group of bandits. The mother was begging the bandits not to kill them.

"Shut up, woman!" shouted a bandit throwing the woman onto the floor with his sword ready to kill.

For Naruto this was the last straw since he never wanted to see anyone innocent to die in front of him a fate that had nearly happened to him.

Naruto jumped in front of the bandits and said "I order you to stop!"

The bandits sneered and took out their swords.

"So you want to be a hero eh? Well we'll show you what happens to hero's in Gato's land!"

Naruto sighed before taking off his cloak. In the bright sun it seemed like a demon had come upon them.

Without a second thought the bandits ran for their lives, too late. Naruto held up his hand and swiped in the direction the bandits were running. The bandits screamed with blood red claw marks on their backs.

Naruto sighed again before putting on his cloak again. He turned around and saw the family he had just saved huddled together looking fearfully at him.

"Don't worry. The bandits won't hurt you again," said Naruto. Then Naruto with a swipe of his cloak disappeared from the area.

Team 7 consisted of Uchiha Sasuke, Haruno Sakura and Inuzuka Kiba. Their sensei is Yuuhi Kurenai who was a newly appointed Jounin. After a while of D ranked missions the genins finally broke.

"Hokage-sama! I can't take this anymore! Give us a better mission or else!" threatened Kiba.

The entire room was awestruck by the statement. To the luck of the genin, the Hokage was a kind person and would not take a threat from a genin seriously.

"Do you think your team is up for it?" the Hokage asked Kurenai.

"I think my genin team is ready," replied Kurenai.

The Hokage smiled.

"Well seems like I can't stop you then! You can come in Tazuna-san!"

An old man came into the room.

"Is this the team that's going to be guarding me? They don't seem like much,"

Kurenai had to stop Sakura and Kiba from killing the man.

"You will be protecting Tazuna the bridge builder from here to Wave!"

"We'll set off tomorrow,"

"Is Kiba here yet?" whined Sakura.

"Here's here!"

The genin team was waiting for everyone to come to the entrance of Konoha.

"How slow can you be!" shouted Sakura pointing his finger before following Sasuke who had started to walk outside.

The group had started moving before two ninja jumped from the bushes. Kurenai took fighting stance and after a while had hammered the two ninjas.

"Now who are you and why are you attacking us?" asked Kurenai with an evil glint in her eyes staring at the tied up ninjas.

"We aren't telling you, you bitch!" sneered one of the brothers spitting on Kurenai's face.

Kurenai wiped the spit off her face and took out a kunai and lowered it towards the bottom half of the man's body.

"Now! Who are you and why are you attacking us?" asked Kurenai again.

"It was Gato! He ordered us to kill the bridge builder! He was paying us money!" shouted the man showing his fear of his pride and joy being cut off.

"We'll call the ANBU to take care of this," said Kurenai standing up. "These were at least Chuunin level. This should be ranked B. I don't think you're up to that level yet."

"Now, Tazuna-san may you tell us what the story is?" asked Kurenai.

(I won't repeat the story since everyone already knows about it)

"Well, I think if you agree to this," pointing to Kiba, Sakura and Sasuke "we might continue."

In the end everyone agreed making Tazuna incredibly happy.

After another period of time passed the team was walking in a leisurely manner when suddenly a blade came flying towards the group.

"Duck!" shouted Kurenai.

Everyone ducked just in time.

"Well. Seems like someone got lucky. Sadly you won't survive much longer," said a man from the trees.

The genins were scared out of their wits while Kurenai was trying to detect the voice.

Suddenly out of nowhere a blade came flying out hitting Kurenai in the shoulder. Sakura screamed while Sasuke and Kiba looked pale.

"Another lucky save," said the man "I really need to sharpen my skills. Oh well. Say sayonara!"

The blade came flying towards Kurenai with deadly speed. Kurenai closed her eyes waiting for death.

Do all of you hate me for creating a cliff hanger? Well I'll update soon. Thanks for all the reviews! Kiba's position in his team in the anime/manga was filled in by a guy called Ishi Ikaiie which in Japanese means stone no squid. He will have an allergy to squid and would be cold as stone. At least for now!
