A/N: I want to point out I started this, story earlier in the Fall than I did with my other crossover: Arashi Uzumaki of the Blue Plague, but still no where in the beginning, so if you want to know what happened in Blue Plague series before the point I used, you got to read the actual books. Just don't let kids read it.
I'm also censoring curse words as it's too many used in more than just saying usual ways that I can't ignore them all. At least with censoring I'm not going against my usual way of avoiding curse wordsof the Blue Plague series Tomas W. Watson, whose wife is Tina Watson. I should also tell you Watson always based a character after himself in his books, and in the Blue Plague series that's Bruce.
Finally, I don't own the Blue Plague series or the Naruto series or it's characters. But I do know the wife of the writer of the Blue Plague series Tomas W. Watson, whose wife is Tina Watson. I should also tell you Watson always based a character after himself in his books, and in the Blue Plague series that's Bruce.

Blue Plague's Nine-Tail Fox's Son: The Fall
Naruto Reunites with his Old Teammates Plus Temari
Naruto was in the game room with Bruce, who was rocking PJ, and Jake, who was playing with the twins. Bruce was waiting on Mike to finish with his shower. All the teams were in and reporting huge kill numbers. This made Bruce optimistic about getting the other survivors and supplies for the upgrades. Bruce looked over on the couch where Jake and the twins were. Jake looked up to his dad.
"What, Dad?" he asked.
"Nothin', son, just watching you play with your sisters," Bruce replied, smiling.
"Let me tell ya; they may be little, but they beat the h- out of me every night when we went to sleep. Then Ms. Lynn brought PJ to see if I could make him shut up. That little turd can scream, but he finally shut up, and then I was stuck with him too," Jake said while looking at PJ then continued. "He may not walk, but he can get into anything. I had to pull him out from under my bed several times. Everyone here tried to help with PJ, Emily, and Sherry but they had to stay up my butt," Jake replied.
"That is what I call stepping up to the plate, son. Words can't describe how proud I am of ya for that."
"Thank you, Dad. It wasn't that big a deal," Jake replied as he filled with pride.
"The h- it ain't. I have done it, and they are tryin' to see if they can drive me crazy. I want to ask you; did Emily and Sherry do that moving in unison thing on you?" The only twins he has experience with were David and Mary, but they were obviously fraternal.
"Yeah, Dad, all the time, and it kinda freaks me out," Jake replied as the girls hugged him.
"I'm telling you Bruce, I think you got the type of twins that mirrored each other," Naruto said. "I had friends who were cousins from both dad's sides, and their dads were identical twins as well, but I never heard anything about them doing what Emily and Sherry does."
"Great." Bruce muttered.
They kept talking until Mike came in and sat in his chair. Debbie took PJ and sat on the couch to feed him oatmeal. Debbie had not even sat down when twins ran over and jumped in Bruce's lap. Bruce let out a long sigh, convinced he would never get to sit by himself ever again. When everyone was in the game room, Bruce called the meeting to order.
"Okay, everyone, I want this meetin' to be short. We must move fast tomorrow before more blues show up. We have people to rescue and supplies to gather. Now my team will be goin' to the survivors, and Paul will be leadin' one supply mission. Mike will lead the other for food. Matt and Jake tell me they have several people trained to run the UAVs. Angela and Alex, you are now assigned to find placement for those that are comin' here. Get their names and what they can do. Pam, you will run Mission Control tomorrow. Start time for mission is 7 a.m. tomorrow." Bruce wanted to get up and walk around, but the twins were snuggling into his sides, going to sleep.
Bruce continued, "My team will take Two Strykers, one deuce and half with a trailer, and the RG. With those four vehicles, we can haul seventy plus back. My team will be myself, Buffy, Debbie, Jake, Danny, Conner, Matt, and Naruto. We will start with the farm that the idiots are in first then move to the other farms then to Jonesboro. Jonesboro still has blues in strength. The camp there was big accordin' to Marcus, holding between six and seven thousand. With around thirty somethin' people left, that means lots of blues. If we get compromised, we leave. I do not care if we have the survivors or not. I don't want a battle of attrition when we're on the ground without cover," Bruce said, looking at each member of his team before continuing. We'll stop four miles from town, then Matt 'n Conner will watch our rides. The rest of the team will move in on foot. Once we have all the survivors, we will head home. I hoped the rumors about some of the survivors being from the same world as Naruto, they will recognize Naruto and make things easier. If the rumors turn out false, I figure we should be done around three."
"There will only be three adults here at the farm once we leave. If the farm calls, everyone is to stop and come a runnin'. I do not care if we have not gotten anything or anybody. I want Paul's group finished before my team gets back. Any questions?" Bruce asked. Lynn raised her hand, and Bruce motioned to her.
"Leavin' just me, Susan, and Pam with five teenage boys seems a little risky, don't cha think?" she asked.
"I'm only worried about gangs right now after the slaughter we had over that last few days. We will see them long before they get here so I am not worried. Risky yes but very necessary and we need ta move fast. Saturday and Sunday, we'll be goin' out again for more supplies," Bruce said, and Lynn nodded. "Any other questions?" Bruce asked, and little Frank raised his hand.
"Mr. Bruce, we still get to have movie night, don't we?" he asked. Bruce looked at his little, hopeful face then looked at the other kids and a few teens and saw the same look on their faces.
"Yes, we'll still have movie night," Bruce told him, and all the kids started clapping. Bruce held up his hand for them to quiet down. "We have a lot of work to do, so no whining when you have to do it, Jake and Matt, what do you have to tell us?" Bruce asked, turning to them.
Matt pointed to Jake, and he stood up. "We don't have an actual count, but our figures say the teams that went out put down approximately forty thousand blues. This number is close plus or minus two grands. The twenty-five-mile radius around us is clear. We have not seen any on thermal. There might be a few, but we can't find them," Jake finished then looked at everyone in the game room. Each person had a smile on their face.
"Thank you, son," Bruce said. "It is 5:30 now, and Lynn has supper ready. We need to eat and get some sleep because not only tomorrow, but the next few weeks will be remarkably busy. Anyone have anything to add?" Bruce asked, looking around. No one raised their hand, so Bruce told everyone to eat and get some sleep.
The clan moved to the tables to get some food and talked amongst each other. Naruto noticed Mindy talking to his roommate David. Naruto nudge Bruce and pointed at the two, gaining an ear-to-ear grin. Bruce had to make sure the twins ate while Debbie fed PJ, who kept yelling to make sure everyone knew he was there. Then they headed to bed for the night.
The next day group by group everyone joined the gym for workout before showering and getting ready for their assignments.
By seven, Naruto joined his team in the Strykers. Naruto was with Bruce Buffy and Conner. The rest had the second Stryker as they headed out.
By 7:30, they were pulling up to the first farm. Bruce pulled up in his Stryker. Debbie and Danny pulled up in their Stryker. Bruce and Debbie got out of the Strykers holding their hands up and walking up the little farmhouse. Buffy and Danny covered them with the weapon systems on the Strykers.
A clean-shaven white man in his early forties came out carrying a shotgun. Bruce and Debbie tried for thirty minutes to get the man to bring his family to the farm, but he refused. When Bruce told him, he needed to put a fence around the house, the man just said that would be too much work and lower the value of the house. Debbie gave him a CB radio and told him to call if they got in trouble. The idiot thanked her, and the rest of the families came out on the porch as Bruce and Debbie climbed into the Strykers.
As Bruce pulled out, he took one last look at the families, knowing they were good as dead, and felt pity for them. Bruce called Debbie on the radio and told her his thoughts. She reminded him you cannot cure stupid.
The other farmhouses were more than happy to leave. Bruce told them to only grab a small bag of clothes and weapons to take with them. Most did not have anything but the clothes on their back and ran for the vehicles. At 11:10 the team had reached the point where they would leave the vehicles. Bruce, Debbie, Naruto, Danny, and Jake would go to the building with the survivors while Matt and Conner watched the group and vehicles. Before leaving, Bruce called Pam for an update on the area.
Pam told him the blues were on the other side of town, and a few people had come out of the building but went back in. Bruce told her if anything changed to call them back, Pam said she would.
Bruce decided to use a similar tactic Naruto advised back at the school on their way home and led the team in single file through the woods with Naruto leading with his nose, him and Buffy watching the right, Danny and Debbie watching the left, and Jake guarding their back with Danny leading him.
They were walking parallel to the road that led into Jonesboro. Moving slowly, it took them over an hour to reach the large, brown, metal building that held the survivors. Bruce stopped the team, in the tree line with building less than fifty yards from them.
Naruto twitched his nose as he caught a four familiar scents—although it was heavily surrounded by smell of humans seriously needing baths. He tapped Bruce's shoulder.
"Four familiar scents inside," Naruto said.
"Are you sure?" Bruce asked.
"Positive," Naruto said with a grin.
Debbie came up beside them.
"How are we goin' to let them know we are here because you are not gonna walk up and knock on the door," Debbie said, looking at the building.
"I got an idea." Naruto bit his thumb and made a series of hand signs and slammed his hand on the ground. "Summoning Jutsu!"
In a puff of smoke, a small dog size fox with two tails appeared.
Debbie's jaw dropped at the small fox.
"Hey, Naruto, what's up?" the fox asked causing Danny's and Jake's jaws to drop with their mother's.
"Shippo, I need you to break into that building," Naruto said. "Ah, guys can Shippo borrow one of your extra radios and maybe some rope?"
Bruce handed Naruto a radio and some rope. Naruto tied the radio around Shippo's back so it will not fall off, but someone inside can untie it. Then he whispered something into Shippo's ear.
"You think you can find her?" Naruto asked.
"Not a problem. I'm literally trained for something like this after all." Shippo ran ahead and used chakra to climb the wall and broke into the window.
Naruto waited a minute before calling over the radio. "Pink Kunoichi, this is blonde fox, do you read me, over?"
"Naruto! Is that really you?" a female voice cried over the radio.
"Long time no hear, Sakura," Naruto said. "I take it Shippo found you guys."
"Heck yes! Gave everyone a near heart attack breaking in!" Sakura responded. "What the heck are you doing out there? Where have you been?"
"Long story, Sakura. Who is with you so I can be certain of the other familiar scents I smell?" Naruto asked.
"Sai, Temari, and Captain Yamato with me," Sakura said.
"Captain Yamato is with you?" Naruto asked.
A male voice came over the radio, "It been a while Naruto."
Naruto heart jumped hearing Yamato's voice. Kakashi was not mention, but Naruto will take Yamato. "Good to hear from you Captain. Hey, wait a second. Why is Temari with you guys?"
"Sand Village was happy to lend her to us to search for you and we somehow ended up with her here."
"Naruto," Bruce said.
"Oh right. Captain, my squad leader wants to talk." Naruto handed the radio to Bruce.
"This is Bruce Williams." Bruce said. "Yamato, as much as I like to get to know you. I don't have time and I don't understand Ninja talk so if you can hand the radio over to someone from my world you trust that be great."
"Bruce, Naruto is with you, that's all I need to know to trust you. As for someone in here, I got someone in mind. Hold on!"
After a few minutes, a male voice came on the radio. "Who is this?"
Naruto handed the radio to Bruce.
"This is Bruce Williams. I am with a friend of one of your survivors' name Naruto. We have a team here to take you to a more secure location if you want to leave," Bruce answered. The man on the other end tried to say something else, but the radio was taken away when a female voice came on.
"How do we know you aren't with the gang that hit us a week ago," she asked in a s- tone.
Bruce held back a snicker as he said. "Ma'am, if that was the case, we would've thrown grenades through the window instead of a fox. We don't have much time," Bruce replied. The woman keyed the radio, and Bruce could hear arguing and fighting. Then, the first man came back on.
"Mr. Williams, where are you? We can't see you," he asked.
Bruce let out a sigh. "We are in the tree line. We really do not want to be out in the open right now with those fast blue f- around. We cannot run that fast. Now, do you want to leave or not? Hold on," Bruce said as Pam came on the radio.
"You have four blues coming toward you from the back of the field. You should see them in a few seconds," Pam said. Jake moved his rifle to the back of the property, and sure enough, thirty seconds later, four blues came out of the tree line about a hundred yards away. Jake squeezed the trigger four times. As the first one hit the ground the last one died.
"That was good shooting," the man replied over the radio.
Naruto swore he heard something about penis size over the radio from a familiar voice. Then there was a sound of something crashing into the ground.
"Sakura just punched Sai," Naruto said. "You don't want to know what he said to get that. Trust me."
Bruce silently agreed.
"Do you and your group want to leave?" Bruce asked, looking at the building and seeing faces at the windows.
After a few minutes, the man came back on the radio. "Can you send in that Naruto kid and someone from your team? I have some questions to ask, and I want to see who we are dealing with," he replied.
Bruce expected this but still did not like it. He would not just leave with someone until he could look into their eyes. Bruce replied. "One of my team is coming in with Naruto. If you heart my team member, no one in that building will live to see the sunset today. Don't think you'll be able to use them as a hostage either because the same thing will follow."
"If your men show no hostility to us, I give you my word none will be shown to them," the man replied.
The man was a poet, Bruce thought as he turned to the team. "Naruto and I are going in. If something happens, kill everyone from our world. Try to spare the shinobies," Bruce said and took off with Naruto before Debbie and Buffy both could say anything.
When Bruce and Naruto were ten yards away, the door opened, and they ran in, and the door closed behind them. Bruce looked around and saw filthy men, women, and children standing around. There were four ninjas—two boys and two girls—one girl with bubblegum pink hair cut short, another sandy blonde hair tied in four ponytails and a giant fan on her back. One boy was black hair with a shirt that stops above his belly button and the oldest man was brown hair. Each having a unique style headband but three had same symbol as Naruto whereas the sandy blonde hair girl had one that look like an hourglass with a rectangle on top. The pink hair girl was holding Shippo and the black hair boy look like he was bruised up. Among them was a man in a dirty deputy uniform, holding the radio Shippo brought in, walked up to Bruce.
"Hi, my name is Bill Thompson. I was a deputy at one time. Which one of you is Naruto?" Bill asked.
"I'm Bruce, the blonde spiky hair is Naruto—although his friends probably can tell you."
"Hey guys!" Naruto greeted.
"Naruto, it really is you," Sakura said. "What happened to you?"
"Long story," Naruto said. "I'll explain when we get to the farm."
"Naruto's friends can come as will anyone else who wants to leave," Bruce said.
"You aren't Military," Bill stated looking at Bruce.
"Good call, Bill," Bruce said smiling.
"Hi, my name is Yamato," the oldest shinobi said. "If you mind me asking, where do you want to take us to?"
Debbie came over the radio and reported Jake shooting two more infected.
"We have a farm that is secure not far from here, but those that come will have to work to help make it more secure and learn to fight. This is no free ride; we have killed over forty thousand infected just this week. There are several large gangs moving around this area, and those that come will be expected to work and fight. We have shelter, food, and water. Now, if you do not like it, you can leave, but you will live by our rules, which I will tell you when we get there. Naruto and I are leaving in three minutes with or without you."
"Hey, I'm in. I owe Naruto for saving one of my brothers back home," Temari said. "My name is Temari, daughter of the fourth Kazekage and oldest sibling of the fifth Kazekage."
"Count the rest of my team," Yamato said.
"Good. Besides the rules, I'll leave Naruto to explain things to you." Bruce said. "What about the rest of you?"
"We're coming with you," Bill said, turning to tell people to get ready when a woman hollered, causing all but the ninjas to stop.
"Here we go again," Sakura sighed.
A woman about fifty and a man a little younger walked over to Bruce. Unlike everyone else, they were clean. Neither Naruto nor Bruce liked them from first sight. With them were two state troopers carrying M-4s. They were clean also, but their uniforms were dirty. "We have not given anyone permission to leave here, and that includes you," she told Bruce.
"Lady, I can leave here with everyone before your men could aim those guns," Naruto said.
"Naruto," Yamato said.
"No, Naruto is right. Neither of us follow orders from you, and if you try to stop me, you will die," Bruce said, and one of the troopers moved his hands on his rifle. "Move another inch, and I'll give you a one-way ticket to h- free of charge," Bruce said, and all the survivors watched.
"You can't threaten them. I am district judge Carla Owens, and this is Congressman Mitch Tanner," Carla said, pointing at the man beside her.
"They're involved in this world's government—or at least of this country," Sai explained.
"Great, more people like G-," Naruto groaned.
"I don't care if you're Donald and Daffy Duck. If he moves any more, you will be the first to die. We leave in two minutes," Bruce said in an emotionless tone as the other survivors grabbed what little they had.
"We are in charge here, Mr. Williams, not you. You will do what we say," Mitch said, finally speaking.
"I wouldn't follow you out of a burning building. If you want to stay, that is fine, but if you try to stop anyone from leaving, your day will go to s- fast, boy," Bruce said, flipping the selector switch to auto on his SCAR.
Bill came up to Bruce. "We're ready." Bruce studied the group. He saw five soldiers with M-4s. Besides Bill and the state troopers, they were the only ones armed. None of the other people had guns, a few had bats and one held a sword.
"Soldiers and ninjas spread out in the line of people, and don't fire or shout your jutsus unless we are gettin' overrun. Jutsus are allowed, but only kind that will not create too much noise unless overrun. My team will cover us as we move. All our weapons are suppressed. If you shoot, we will die. There is a mob of several thousand on the other side of town. They are spread out looking for you. We have a UAV up and can see them moving around. No talking or crying. Keep in single file on arm length from the person in front of you. We have five miles to go to get to our rides," Bruce said and saw relief on their faces. Bruce turned to Carla and Mitch, who were talking. Mitch turned to the group.
"Do what he says for now," Mitch told everyone.
Bruce did not give a s-; he wanted out of there. He looked at the two state troopers. "Hey, dumb and dumber, that goes for you too. Do not fire your weapons. If you do, you will be shot. I'll shoot ya in the legs just so the blues can get you," Bruce said, and he could see anger wash over their faces.
"They were assigned as our bodyguards by the governor, and you will address them with respect," Carla said.
"That is strike two, b-. If you tell me to do something again, you'll spit teeth."
"He will too," Naruto muttered to his friends. "And if they push it even more, he'll make them cry for mercy as he tortures them. And if they push it with his family present, they be in great danger."
"Silencers are illegal, and I will make sure you are punished later," Carla promised Bruce.
"Mine aren't. Well, some of them aren't," Bruce replied, heading to the door. Naruto made the call and told them the news and that they were leading the group to the vehicles. Danny and Jake would flank the group. Bruce and Buffy would cover the rear. Naruto and Debbie took the sides. It took ninety minutes to reach the vehicles because they had to go slow for the survivors. Just before they reached the vehicles, Bruce called his team over the radio, telling them they were going to disarm the state troopers at the vehicles then laid out his plan. Bruce told Matt and Conner to put the women and kids—minus Temari and Sakura—in the strykers and the RG then put the rest in the duce and half and trailer. Bruce received affirmative from everyone.
When Bruce reached the vehicles, Carla and Mitch were telling everyone they were riding in the RG with their escorts. Bruce yelled, "Now," and suddenly the troopers, the judge, and the congressman were looking down gun barrels.
"If you move, you'll die," Bruce told them. "Now, slowly raise your hands." They did. Bruce took the M-4s from the troopers and turned to Bill. "You know how to run one of these?" Bruce asked.
"Seven years Atlanta SWAT. I should," Bill replied as Bruce threw him one M-4 and handed the other to one of the soldiers. Then, Bruce took the pistols out of their belts and backups from their ankles and handed them to Temari Sakura Sai and Yamato.
"Make sure these don't fall in the wrong hands," Bruce told them.
"With pleasure," Yamato agreed.
Bruce then turned to the troopers. "When I trust you, then you'll get them back. If you are seen with a firearm until then, you will be shot. Now, get in the trailer or stay here; I do not care," Bruce said. "Let's move out."
"I'll show you later how to apply wind chakra to them," Naruto told Temari. "Fire and Lightning chakra causes the gun powder to explode. Water and Earth aren't very affective, but I find wind chakra most useful with these."
"Thanks," Temari said.
"Great, Naruto know how to use this world's weapons," Sakura said.
"Only pistols. Bruce figures I don't need anything bigger than that," Naruto said. "So far I haven't proved him otherwise."
They loaded up and left. It was 3:30 when they got back to the farm.
