Authors Notes: Yeah yeah, I know. I got other stories I should be working on and here I am starting a new one, but I couldn't help it. Damn muse just wouldn't move away from this idea, and with it being close to my favorite Holiday of the year, I thought this would be a fitting story to start for Halloween. Though to be honest, at this time I have no end game plan just yet for this particular story. Even if it is a few days late.

Resident Uzumaki
Chapter 1
Nearly a quarter of a century ago,
the Cerberus Corporation rose up,
and had quickly become the Elemental Nations
largest commercial entity.
9 out of every 10 homes contain its products.
With it's wares ranging from domestic and industrial use,
to entertainment and medical.
Its political and financial influence is felt in every nation.
In public, it is the Elemental Nations leading
supplier of technological and medical advancements, private security services,
and healthcare.
In private however, its massive profits are generated by
advanced military technology, genetic experimentation
and viral weaponry.
Beep… Beep… Beep… Beep… Beep….
A groan could be heard from the individual that lay upon the bed as he slowly regained consciousness. The mans first reaction was to wipe the sleep from his eyes so he could gain his bearings from his sleep addled mind. Or he would have, if his wrists were not securely fastened to the bed. Snapping awake, the silver haired man took note of his situation as best he could with the minuscule amount of light that came from the heart monitor to his left. Not only where his hands bound at the wrist to the bed he was on, but his entire body was as well. A groan in the corner of the darkened room alerted the man that he was not alone.
"Anyone there?" He called out.
"Mizuki?" A familiar voice called out from the other side of the room. "Is that you?"
"Yeah." The silver haired Chunin replied. The sounds of some light struggling could be heard as he attempted to get his bindings loose. "What happened, Iruka?"
"I don't know." The identified Iruka stated. "The last thing I remember was setting up a trap for that demon brat, then something hit me from behind and knocked me out."
"Same." Mizuki grunted as he gave another hard tug at his bindings, before giving up with an exasperated sigh. "Where the hell are we?"
Suddenly, light flooded the darkened room, nearly blinding the two occupants as the door slid open with a silent hiss. At the door, a slender feminine figure stood.
"Ah good, you're awake." She spoke with a melodic voice as the woman casually flicked on the lights, revealing herself to be none other then the Hyuga Heiress herself. Though, instead of wearing her usual attire from the academy, she was now wearing a full bodied purple and white suit that looked like it was ready for combat. Atop of that, she wore a simple white lab coat, with her I.D. badge clipped to the front, proudly displaying the companies logo. A simple vertical black oval, outlined by a yellow one.
"Hi-Hinata!?" Iruka sputtered at the sight of the young woman.
The revealed young woman had dropped out of the Shinobi Academy a little over three years ago abruptly; along with fellow heiress Ino Yamanaka, and one Naruto Uzumaki. Even leaving her clans compound with nothing but the cloths on her back in the middle of the night. A move that had greatly angered the Hyuga clan, as well as creating no shortage of rumors and idle gossip that permeated through the village.
On top of that, a promising Kunoichi by the name of Tenten Higurashi had resigned at the same time, much to her sensei and team's shock, leaving them to scramble for a replacement. Simply citing that she had been given a promising opportunity that she couldn't afford to pass by.
"Greetings Iruka-sensei, Mizuki-sensei." The Hyuga heiress greeted as if nothing was out of the ordinary. "I trust the two of you are comfortable."
"What's going on!?" Mizuki shouted. "Where the hell are we!?"
"To answer the latter," Hinata giggled. "You are in the lower levels of the Cerberus facility within Konoha. As to what is going on, well, you two have been selected to partake in an experiment of sorts."
"Wha-what do you mean, experiment?" The scarred Chunin demanded.
"It is pretty self explanatory, Mizuki-sensei." The Hyuga Heiress shrugged as if without a care in the world. Reaching into her lab coat, she produced a small remote control like device. Casually pressing a button on it, six syringes filled with an unknown clear liquid and a floating green spring raised from behind the bed that Mizuki lay upon. Each poised to penetrate his body at three points on each arm.
"What you see here, is Cerberus's latest accomplishment in bio-engineering, the Tyrant Virus or T-Virus for short." Hinata proudly explained. "And you, Mizuki-sensei get to be our first live human subject. I must admit, I am quite excited to see the results."
"You can't do this!" Iruka protested, struggling against his bindings. "People will come looking for us!"
This only earned a giggle from the bluenette.
"As of twenty minutes ago, the two of you were confirmed dead after a failed attempt to frame one Naruto Uzumaki for the theft of the Forbidden Sealing Scroll." She informed them casually. "Both bodies were found burned to a crisp and visually unidentifiable due to messing with one of the forbidden jutsu's within the scroll. Tsk tsk tsk, you should know better then to tamper with things of forbidden knowledge."
"Now, hold still Mizuki-sensei." Hinata grinned as she pressed another button on the odd device she held within her hand. Prompting the syringes to sink into his flesh and empty the fluids within his body. "This is going to hurt a lot, I promise."
Almost instantly, the silver haired Chunin screamed out in pain as the newly identified T-Virus circulated through his system. Fruitlessly, he struggled against his restraints as it felt like acid had entered his blood stream and was eating away at his flesh, from the inside out.
As this happened, the former Hyuga heiress glided over to the unfortunate mans bed and withdraw the medical chart that was hanging at the foot of the bed. Producing a pen from her breast pocket, she proceeded to mindlessly write down various things on it. All the while mumbling things about time of injection and expected rate of transformation.
"Why are you doing this, Hinata?" Iruka questioned, averting his eyes from the agony his friend and co-worker was going through. "What happened to you, you were such a sweet girl."
"Oh that, that was an act I put up so that others would under estimate me." Hinata brushed off the latter statement with a scoff. "The why however is simple, Iruka-sensei. Boundaries are meant to be broken. And in order to advance in genetic experimentation, we must break those boundaries if we are to push forward."
"Sounds an awfully like something Nyoka would say." The scared Chunin spat the name in disgust.
"How kind of you to notice." Hinata grinned. "She is my mentor after all."
Hearing this, Iruka could only gawk at the pale eyed woman before him unable to comprehend what he had just heard, as a cold feeling settled into the pit of his stomach. The shy little wall flower that he had practically watched growing up in the village and openly admitted to working along side Konoha's biggest traitor. Then again, she did state that her meekness was a facade she had put up to deceive those around her. Just how much was she hiding, and where did her true loyalties lie?
Swallowing thickly, he met the pale eyes on the former Hyuga heiress, whom was sporting a sinister grin on her face.
"Are you going to do the same to me?" He asked, while gesturing with his head towards the now unconcious Mizuki.
"Oh, no, no, no." Hinata shook her head while eliciting a chilling giggle. "Though you do play an intricate part of this particular experiment."
"Why?" Iruka inquired. "Why us?"
"Well, in Mizuki-sensei's case, he made some rather disparaging remarks about Nyoka-senpai which earned the ire of both senpai and my boss. Stating in great detail of how she should gladly spread her legs for him after he delivered the scroll." She explained with a sneer of disgust. Only one man would ever have the privilege of touching her senpai in such a manner.
"As for you, well, you have greatly upset my boss through your actions over the years."
"What do you mean, my actions!?"
Silently, Hinata produced a tablet like device from her lab coat pocket and tapped on the screen a few times. As she did so, the room darkened slightly and holographic images of what appeared to be a file of some kind that Iruka recognized as his own. His full name, place of residence, current occupation, and an in depth detail of his career as a Shinobi of Konoha. But what was most surprising to the scarred Chunin, was the list of particularly private information about him. Stuff that he could of sworn was off the record. In particular was his recent dealings with Konoha's revered Spy Master, Jiraiya of the Sannin.
"Starting just under ten years ago, you were approached by Jiraiya of the Sannin for a rather unusual assignment." Hinata began in a professional tone, though the expression on her face when she spoke the mans name clearly displayed what she thought of the Sannin. "In exchange for sabotaging and tampering with Naruto Uzumaki's education and records, you would receive 20,000 Ryo monthly. Though since you already despised poor Naruto-kun, senselessly blaming the deaths of your parents on him, the money was just a bonus, wasn't it."
Iruka could only look at the former heiress completely stupefied as he tried to wrap his head around just how Cerberus could have such detailed and intimate information about him and no doubt others within the village, and perhaps even beyond.
"Of course, that arrangement came to a halt three years ago when Naruto-kun suddenly dropped out of the Academy in pursuit of a more privatized education, didn't it." She smirked, causing the man before her to scowl. "Then came your repeated failed efforts to isolate Naruto-kun and persuade him to return to the academy so he could be under your thumb again. I suspect Jiraiya was none to pleased with your failure."
"What is even more interesting, is that this little assignment of yours was done without the consent of the Hokage, or even the council." Hinata continued, ignoring the mans scowl. "Makes me wonder what else the perverted frog fucker is conspiring in the dark."
[Hinata Hyuga, please report to the observation deck.] A synthetic female voice echoed throughout the room. [Hinata Hyuga, please report to the observation deck.]
"Well, it seems that is all the time we have." She shrugged, closing down the holographic images of Iruka's file before moving towards the door. "Do me a favor, and keep an eye on Mizuki-sensei."
"You won't get away with this." Iruka stated defiantly. "We'll get out of here, and report everything to the Hokage!"
"Good luck." The paled eyed beauty giggled before disappearing out the door, allowing for it to lock behind her.
Hokage's Office
Hiruzen took a deep puff from his tobacco pipe, slowly exhaling the smoke from his nostrils as he mulled over the recent events that had transpired within the last hour. It had all started when one Naruto Uzumaki; whom had abruptly dropped out of the Academy three years prior, had broken into his office, stolen the Sealing Scroll of Secrets, and severely injured one of his ANBU when the boy made his escape.
However, this strongly conflicted with the report that ANBU Neko had given, stating that her team had observed the young man at the Ichiraku Ramen establishment, before he departed towards his apartment which was now located in a rather luxurious complex owned by the Cerberus Corporation. Something that didn't sit well with the aging Fire Shadow. The elder man had purposely placed the boy in that run down apartment within the Red Light District to not only allow the villagers to have easy access to the boy to vent there frustrations on; but to also allow his ANBU to easily keep an eye on the weapon as well and to quickly intervene if the mob got too carried away. Now though, with Cerberus's security around the complex, only those that resided there or were given express permission could enter.
Then his ANBU had located the charred remains of what was identified as Iruka Umino and Mizuki Touji, along with what appeared to be the mostly burnt scroll, rendering it completely useless and robbing the village of one of it's most treasured items. Not to mention the sheer amount of powerful jutsu and techniques that the scroll had contained, now lost. Both instructors at the Academy. This only served to corroborate ANBU Neko's report that the Uzumaki was innocent of the crime that had just transpired. Making it clear that both Iruka and Mizuki had attempted to frame the young man for the crime.
"Are you sure that there is no way your team can infiltrate the Cerberus complex?" Hiruzen inquired as he turned his attention back to the cat masked ANBU before him.
Knowing that there was extremely little that could be done regarding the scroll and the guilty party that had stolen it, the elder village leader decided to turn his attention back to the Uzumaki. The boy was meant to be conditioned to be the villages scapegoat and weapon to use on Konoha's enemies. He needed to get the weapon back under his thumb, and soon.
"With their advanced technology, it is virtually impossible to get in unnoticed." Neko responded, though behind her mask she had a scowl etched across her face. "Inu's team had attempted to do so shortly after Uzumaki moved into the complex and was immediately caught. Furthermore, we do not know which apartment Uzumaki resides in."
"Also, it has been increasingly difficult to even approach Uzumaki due to his employment with the Cerberus Corporation." The female ANBU continued, smirking slightly behind her mask.
Hiruzen openly scowled at this.
"Do we know what his position is within the company?" The elder man inquired, looking for a way in to potentially sabotage the boys employment and remove him from the protective umbrella that the corporation provided him.
"Negative, though we have observed that many of the employees regard him with respect. Which suggests that he could be in a position of influence within the company."
"I see." Hiruzen frowned. "Return to your post and report if there are any changes regarding Uzumaki. I have to address the council about what had transpired tonight."
"Hai, Hokage-sama." Neko responded before disappearing from the office, leaving the elder man alone with his thoughts.
'It appears the weapon has embedded himself deep within the Cerberus Corporation, and with their resources, there is no possible way they don't know what he holds within him.' The elder Hokage mused. 'Still, an all out assault on the complex is out of the question, and if Neko's reports are accurate, infiltration is also not an option. The only option is to isolate and subdue the weapon outside of the complex.'
"Inu!" He called out.
Immediately an ANBU with a dog mask, and gravity defying silver hair appeared before the Hokage in a kneeling position.
"Rise Inu, and remove your mask." Hiruzen commanded.
Without hesitation, the male ANBU member rose to his feet and removed the dog mask he had been wearing, exposing his face or rather part of it, as nearly half of the mans face was hidden behind a black fabric mask that covered his mouth and nose, while his hitae-ate covered his left eye.
"I have an important, long term assignment for you Kakashi." The old man began. "As you know, the new batch of Genins have just graduated. Among them is Sasuke Uchiha, the sole survivor of the Uchiha Massacre. I want you to be his teams Jonin Sensei."
Kakashi frowned slightly at the idea, not to keen on taking on an entire team, but nodded in acknowledgment none the less.
"And what of Uzumaki?" The masked Jonin inquired.
"With the Cerberus Corporation protecting him, it is virtually impossible to abduct him from the complex. The only option open to us is to isolate him while he is away from Cerberus and subdue him to be reconditioned." Hiruzen explained. "That is why I am going to contact Ryori."
"Ryori? Isn't he retired?"
"Semi-retired." The Hokage corrected. "He has been keeping an eye on the weapon, along with his daughter, though she is unaware."
"I see." Was all Kakashi could respond with.
"Due to how Uzuamki frequents the stand, Ryori has the best chance in subduing our weapon once more." Hiruzen stated. "I will make a request for a Yamanaka to concoct a powerful sedative to render the weapon defenseless, long enough for an ANBU team to subdue and transport it to be properly reconditioned, as he should have been."
"Is there anything else you require of me, Hokage-sama?"
"That is all, be sure to meet your team in a week." The old man instructed. "Now if you will excuse me, I must address the Council."
Nodding silently, Kakashi departed the office with the Hokage following shortly afterwards. Both unaware of a small object nestled in the upper corner of the room.
Unknown Location
Dozens of monitors, displaying various key areas of the village such as the Hokage's Office, Council Chambers, and the Academy to name a few, lit up the room where a lone individual was seated rather comfortably in a moderate sized chair behind a rather large desk. In his hands was the very scroll that the two would be traitors had very generously donated to him. As he did so, the door behind him gave a small hiss before it opened, allowing the light from the elevator flood the room for a brief moment, as well as silhouetting the outline of a feminine figure before the door hissed shut once more.
Silently, she moved into the room. Clad in black and dark gray standard ANBU gear, with a porcelain Neko mask hanging loosely from her waist. Reaching the chair that the young man was sitting in, she gently wrapped her arms around his neck and leaned in until her chin was resting on his shoulder.
"You did well in there, Yugao-chan." The man smiled, looking up from the scroll and gave a side long gaze at the beautiful young woman.
"Did you expect anything less, Naruto-kun?" The now identified Yugao inquired with a slight smirk, her eyes turning up towards a specific monitor that was displaying the meeting between Hiruzen and Kakashi.
"The old fool still hasn't realized he has already lost." Naruto commented, seeing the monitor his companion was looking at. "To think he actually believed he could hide my heritage from me."
"Tch." The purple haired woman scowled.
"No matter." The blonde jinchuriki smirked, placing the scroll down on the desk before him. "Let the fool think he has the advantage. It will be all the more enjoyable when he sees all of his machinations come crashing down around him."
Cerberus Facility – Lower Levels, 7 Hours Later
Mizuki groaned in pain as he coughed up another glob of blood and bile to add to the puddle that was pooling on the floor at the foot of the bed he was strapped to. The Chunin's once healthy complexion was now horribly pale and clammy due to the cold sweat that coated his body.
"How are you holding up over there, Mizuki?" Iruka asked from the corner of the room, still confined to his own bed.
"Ugh." The silver haired man groaned. "Wha-what ever that bitch injected me with, is fucking killing me."
"Hang in there buddy." The scarred Chunin tried to comfort his friend. "We'll get out of here. Somehow."
"And how are we going to do that?" Mizuki weakly shot back. "In case you haven't noticed, we are strapped to these kami forsaken beds. How the hell do you think we are going to get out of here? What, is the power just going to magically go out and unlock everything for us!?"
Almost as if to mock the silver haired man, the lights abruptly went out only to be replaced by low glowing emergency red lights to dimly light up the room. Simultaneously, soft clicks could be heard throughout the room as the bonds on their respect beds clicked open, allowing Iruka to quickly scramble out of his bed, despite his muscles protest due to being forced to lay down for so long.
"What the hell?" Was Mizuki's intelligent response.
"Don't question it, let's get out of here." Iruka stated as he nearly slipped in the puddle of refuse below his comrades bed. Steadying himself, he positioned one of Mizuki's arms over his shoulder and hoisted him out of the bed.
Mizuki groaned in protest as he was lifted from the bed, but complied none the less. At least as much as his frail body would allow him to, trying not to put too much of his weight on his comrade. Together, the two hobbled over towards the only door leading out of the room. Propping his silver haired friend up against the wall, Iruka cautiously cracked open the door and peeked outside. Through the dim red glow of the emergency lights, the scarred Chunin could vaguely make out that the hallway was clear of any guards or staff.
"Come on, it's clear." He informed the ailing Mizuki as he secured the man once more. "We're going to get out of here, get you to an actual hospital to get whatever that shit the bitch injected you with, and report everything to Hokage-sama.
As quickly and as quietly as they could, the two hobbled down the hallway with Iruka keeping watch for any signs of wandering staff or security. Though as they progressed and the increasing lack of evidence of any staff of any kind being present on the floor caused a sense of dread to pool into the pit of the scarred Chunin's stomach.
'Something's not right.' Iruka thought to himself as he slowed to a stop, readjusting the weight of his friend. 'We should have seen some sort of sign of someone by now.'
He was snapped out of his musing when Mizuki started coughing violently, prompting him to gently lay him next to the wall. Just as the silver haired Chunin hacked up another glob of blood and bile, as well as some more solid chunks of something Iruka could not, and did not want to identify. Careful not to step in the freshly deposited fluid on the floor, the scarred Chunin knelt down next to Mizuki.
"Hang in there, we're almost out of here." He tried to reassured the silver haired man, even though he had no idea where the exit was for this kami forsaken place.
"N-no." Mizuki groaned, trying to push the brown haired man away. "Ju-just leave me. I'm only slowing you down."
"What the hell kind of talk is that?" Iruka questioned in a harsh tone. "No, we're both getting out of here, now come on."
"No, Iruka!" Mizuki weakly glared at his comrade. "Wha-what ever that bitch put inside me, it's killing me."
"Which is why we need to get you out of here and into a hospital!" The scarred Chunin argued back. "One that isn't involved with Cerberus!"
At this, Mizuki could only laugh.
"A hospital that isn't involved with Cerberus, the lead supplier in medical equipment, I'd sooner believe the demon brat is the Yondaime's son." He remarked cynically. "No, you need to get out of here. You need to tell Hokage-sama what they did here, and have him bring every available Shinobi and burn this place to the ground! Now get out of here!"
Iruka stood still for a handful of seconds before he cast his eyes to the floor and nodded silently and slowly rose to his feet. Giving his long time friend and comrade one last look before running off down the hall and taking a left at the corner, making a silent vow to return as quickly as he could with help. Hearing a small hissing sound, Iruka came to an abrupt halt and pressed himself against the wall, trying to hide in the shadows. Unaware of a strange looking creature with an abnormally long tongue creeping on the ceiling above him.
After a few seconds without hearing anything else, Iruka decided to take his chances and continue forth, oblivious to the strange creature that was now stalking him from above. As the minutes seemed to tick by, the scarred Chunin started to feel desperate, having not found a single door that looked like it lead out. In fact, he slowly began to realize that the only other doors and windows he had seen, had all been on the interior walls. None were located on the outer walls. Stopping in his tracks, he knelt over and tried to collect his thoughts. Though as he did so, he saw a familiar pool of blood and bile on the floor.
Looking up, he recognized this spot as the very spot that Mizuki had told him to leave him. Only now, Mizuki was no where in sight, having seemingly left under his own strength if the blood soaked hand prints along the wall were anything to go by.
"Mizuki!" He called out, only to be greeted with silence. "Damn it."
Once more, Iruka trudged forward, this time focusing his search for an elevator or stairwell on the inner walls. Finally, he found a promising door that appeared to go deeper into the interior. Thinking that the elevator may be located in the central most part of the floor, he cautiously entered the room. However, upon taking a few steps, he heard the hissing noise once more, this time much closer. Slowly turning, he could only gasp in horror at the sight that greeted him.
Blocking the door way of the room he had just entered was a massive beasts standing somewhere around six feet tall, maybe seven with a massive tongue moving around, almost like a snake. It's head appeared to have it's brain on the exterior, with a large mouth full of razor sharp teeth.
"What the fuck is that?" Iruka asked out loud.
However, this seemed to be a mistake as the sound of his voice caused the unknown creature to appear to lock on to him and lunge forward. It was only due to years of training and combat experience was Iruka able to avoid a disemboweling strike by the creatures massive claws, though he still did suffer a deep laceration on his back, causing him to cry out in pain.
Not wasting any time, the scarred Chunin launched off the floor and bolted out the door, slamming the door behind him. Despite knowing that the locks were not working, he had at least hoped it would slow the creature down, if only a little to give him a chance to get away. His hopes were dashed as a loud clang echoed throughout the walls, signifying that the door had literally been ripped out of the wall.
Taking a chance to look behind him, Iruka could see the strange creature leaping up on the wall and crawling towards him at an alarming speed. Crying out in fright, he turned and ran at full sprint down the hall, and quickly rounded the corner. Only to come to a sudden halt as he smashed into the form of an extremely sickly looking Mizuki who was now wobbling on his feet.
"Oh shit, Mizuki!" Iruka called out in alarm. "We need to hide, now!"
Not giving his friend time to respond, Iruka attempted to pull him into one of the adjacent rooms, in hopes of hiding from whatever creature was pursuing him. However, Mizuki would not budge. Turning to his friend with a questioning look, only to find the silver haired man to suddenly lunge towards him, catching him off guard as his already injured back smashed into the wall behind him.
"Ahhhh!" He screamed out as Mizuki's teeth sunk into his tender flesh where his collar bone connected to the base of his neck, causing the blood to spray out onto the wall.
As it was, the sounds of Iruka's pained cries attracted the attention of the beast, which now slowly stalked towards the prone form of Iruka. Bearing it's fangs, the massive creature lashed out with it's tongue and caught hold of one of the scarred Chunin's legs before snapping it towards the beast. As such, the sudden pull away from Mizuki had caused Iruka neck to open completely.
All throughout the hall ways, the sounds of gurgling and wet munching could be heard echoing off the walls.
Observation Deck
Five figures stood silently as they observed what had transpired as they peered into the make shift set that had acted as a laboratory floor. In truth though, there was no escape for Iruka or Mizuki, as there was no way out on their own.
"Mmm, rate of infection seemed to move slower then our other test subjects." Hinata noted, jotting down the notes on her notepad. "Will have to perform further tests to see if it is a species variable or if rate of infection is determined by the individual."
"Such a sight to see." Nyoka commented with a sinister grin as she observed the damage being done to the now mangled body of Iruka. "The Licker bio-weapon is truly a magnificent sight to behold when in action."
"Bastard deserved it." Ino scowled as she looked down her nose at the fully infected Mizuki. "Pervert was always trying to look up our dresses in class."
"Which is part of the reason these two were selected for this particular test run of the T-Virus in humans." Naruto stated. "Both of them have committed great offenses to all of us in some way, shape or form."
"So what do we do now?" Yugao inquired, looking to the blonde male.
"Have both Iruka and Mizuki chipped." Naruto instructed as a dark grin formed on his mouth. "They will be the first of a new wave of bio-weapons for Cerberus."
Additional Authors Notes: And that's a wrap!
Hope everyone enjoyed the start of this little plot bunny that just wouldn't leave me alone. Personally, I blame the above mentioned inspirations for this story. Though I wonder, did everyone catch the references in this chapter? There are two very big ones.
Also in case it wasn't obvious, Cerberus is Umbrella, just under a different name and expanding into other fields.
Anyways, as always, be sure to leave your thoughts and comments in the reviews, or hit me up via PM/DM!
