Review Response
Blaze1992: No I'm not in a bad mood. I honestly like writing slightly darker stories. If you go back and look though my stories I would say that Club Rose has been my darkest story to date. While I'm not trying to outdo that one, this story is going to go there. to the deep end of the pool. I hope you can swim
Spark681: I have a few up coming plans that will be put into affect soon.

Chapter 12: Land of Waves: Reigning Hell
Location: Land of Waves
Place: Camp at Boarder near Sakuru Sea
Time: 0000 (Thursday)
The camp near the edges of the Land of Wave and closest to the Sakuru Sea acted as the first line of Defense in Gato's blockade. Gato even allowed them use of 5 smaller vessels that held up to 20 men. This allowed them to patrol the coastline in force without any fear of someone having greater numbers to challenge them. Several women, men, and children could be seen with chains around their necks. Many of them were naked and showed clear signs of sexual abuse and assault, several young women and teenage girls were pregnant from the repeated gang rapes they had endured over the course of her months here. No bandit claimed the bastard children as their own. This was only one of Gato's camps scattered around the coast.
This was also going to be the first camp to die tonight.
Four figures could be seen looking at the camp. All of them wore all black clothing across their backs were ninjato style swords and heavy duty mission belts, over their faces were full black masks with black out visors. It was easy to see that three of the figures were female. The leader of the group turned to them and gave quick hand signals. The only male of the group nodded before handing over a small book of tags to each person.
They quickly spread out to plant the tags. Small wood buildings, sleeping bandits, and the like. Over the course of 20 minutes they wrapped the camp in the tags and silently killed the few guards on duty. The largest female of the group found herself at the docks and at the boats. As she was placing the tags she heard a faint whimpering.
Jumping on board the boat she saw several men surrounding a 10 year old girl who was just starting to bud, taking turns on her.
Rage filled her body as she took out a kunai and ran though them all quickly without alerting anyone. Once she was finished she looked at the girl. She was covered and filled with semen. The woman grabbed her chin and looked into her eyes. The girl had already resigned herself to her fate. She was had essentially killed her own mind to escape the pain and torment. The woman said a silent pray for the girl before giving her a mercy kill by slitting her throat and allowing her to bleed out. Any other time she would have tried harder, but this... this was to important.
The smallest of the females walked though the camp until she came upon the slave pins. She walked up to each one and hushed them, before she freed them. She made a seal creating two clones. The clones lead the people away from the hell they were in.
The Last two were going though the main sleeping quarters releasing a mixture of muscle relaxer and fast acting poison. The men in the cabin woke, but couldn't sound the alarm, they died quickly, quietly, and in agony.
An hour after they started the group found themselves at the edge of the camp. The slaves took off in all directions.
"Blow it," said the Lead woman as she removed her mask revealing herself to be Mitarashi Anko.
"KAI!" yelled the only male.
The camp went up in a ball of flames as multiple explosions went off in rapid succession. Each one adding to the death count and destruction. The boats on the water also went up like roman candles. As the fire burned Naruto, Chocho, and Sarada removed their masks to watch the skies turn crimson in the dead of night. Each of them felt something different yet the same. Pride, digest, rage, hate, guilt.
"One camp down... Several more to go. Sarada what's the closet camp to this one?" asked Anko.
"It's five miles to the West of us. This is a supply hub for Gato and his men. Their probably already getting ready to head over here en mass," said Sarada.
Naruto looked at the watch he wore on his wrist. "Not to worry i sent a few clones that way as a precaution. If they try to leave out of the 100 meter kill zone they'll die a tad quicker then when we get there. It's almost 0100. We need to move now," said Naruto.
"I'll take lead on the attack. These fuckers don't deserve to live though the night after the horrors they've committed," said Chocho rage still her body after what she saw those men doing.
The group vanished into the night leaving nothing but flames and smoke in their wake.

Place: Gato's mansion- Gato's office
Time: 0700 (Thursday)
Gato grit his teeth in annoyance. Five of his coastal patrol camps/towns, 29 ships, two inner country camps, and a Auctioning house! All used as kindling for for some fucking fire bugs! In one night he lost MILLIONS of Ryo. He glared at the map and marked each of the mentioned locations with a red X, as well as circling the remaining camps that were still around in blue. He still had two auction houses up and running as well as 15 other camps that kept other small towns and cities under foot. He also kept the bulk of his forces in the capital under his careful eye. As long as this was happening he didn't have a problem.
Zori, Waraji stop fucking the hookers and get over here," said Gato catching their attention.
The two men in qustion managed to remove themselves from the slaves that Gato had around his office for 'relif' long enough to fix themselves. Zori is a light-skinned man who stood at 5'7" with bluish-white hair and black eyes. Lined markings are tattooed under his eyes. He commonly wears a dark purple hat on this head, the top of which extends far beyond the top of his head. Zōri also wears a blue jacket with multiple pockets and tied to his waist is his blue handled katana
Waraji on the other hand was taller then his companion standing at 6' even an eye-patch over his right eye and has brown hair which he parts in three, finishing in an elaborate topknot. He has an intricate tattoo that seemingly stretches across his entire left side and left right, inner thigh, as well as a stitched scar on the left side of his forehead, and the left side of his mouth. He wears what seems to be a loose-fitting kimono, albeit not in the traditional manner as the top half of the outfit falls around his waist leaving his upper body exposed. He also wears bandages wrapped around his waist, simple sandals and carries a fairly long sword
"Yes Gato-sama?" asked Zori fixing his beanie.
"Get the word out though our information network. A Million ryo on info leading to the capture or death of those who destroyed my shit! If their women I'll pay double to be brought to me alive and untouched. I won't them to pay," said Gato his rage clear.
"You got it boss," said Waraji with a smirk. "I'm really hoping for a young one this time around.
"You goons have your orders now get the hell out my office!" yelled Gato.
The duo nodded and left. Once alone Gato took his cane and walked up to a young woman. She was in the spring of her 13 year and already impregnated by Gato himself. To bad Gato didn't want to deal with the shit. Gato raised his cane in the air and proceeded to beat her to death. Once done Gato wiped his cane off and looked at the corpse that had a bashed in skull.
"Nothing personal slut. I needed to get out some stress relief and fucking a whore isn't to high up on my list right now.
Location: Edge of Land of waves
Place: -Unfinished- Bridge
Time: 1120 (Thursday)
Chocho opened her eyes from her short nap. She looked at the workers from atop one of the pillars supporting the unfinished bridge. The members of Team six didn't return to late in the morning nearing 0400. They each got about 2 hours of sleep before they needed to do their assignments for the day. Sarada was scouting for the other camps, Naruto was guarding the house, and team 7 were in the middle of training. All she knew about Anko-sensei was that she was currently posing as a hooker in the village and getting intail.
"Some bodyguard you are kid," said Tazuna from his position as he looked over blueprints.
Chocho snorted. "Even asleep i'm doing my job and can protect you lot. So far nothing was enough enough to trip the alarm traps Naru-kun set up on his watch," said Chocho and massaged her breasts making many men blush. "Damn now my boobs feel sore,"
"What are you doing child!? Have you no shame?" asked a working man.
Chocho opened one eye and looked at him. "Not really. I'm a kunoichi. If I was sent here to kill you all, then you'd be dead because you were stupid enough to look at my chest like the dirty old perverts you are,"
"Well whatever," said Tazuna coughing while trying to get his blush under control.
A man walked up to Tazuna. Tazuna looked at him as the man handed him a letter. Tazuna looked at it with wide eyes and alarm. Chocho recolonized the Kanji instantly. "Resignation'
"What the hell Jinto!?" yelled Tazuna. "We're almost finished with the bridge!"
"I'm sorry Tazuna-san. You and I go way back hell you got me my frist job, but I got to think about my wife and kids. Each day we stay here then the noose tightens around our neck," said Jinto looking down in shame.
Tazuna narrowed his eyes. "I see. Everyone will break for lunch. Jinto don't bother coming back if you don't have the spine for this," said Tazuna.
"What!" asked the younger man.
"You can cling to this miserable life if you want. Starving, fighting your fellow countrymen over scraps! I'm not going to do that. Even if I die... I have to try and build this bridge for Tsunami-chan and Inari-kun. My family needs this. So if you won't work I'll work double hard for you," said Tazuna.
Chocho smiled at Tazuna. "You know my respect for you just went up by a bit you drunk old perv," said Chocho.

Naruto stood at the edge of the deck running though kata for his fighting style. He had emptied his mind so he could focus on the task and battle at hand. He stopped mid kick when he felt a pair of eyes on him.
Naruto turned to find a kid sitting at the edge of the docks not to far away. He was a pretty small runt. has spiky black hair and dark-coloured eyes. As a child, he wore a green jumpsuit with a yellow shirt and a simple pair of sandals. He also wore a blue and white striped hat. He was Tsunami's son and Tazuna's grandson. Inari.
"What is it Inari-san?" asked Naruto as he began his routne again.
"You know your going to die right?" asked Inari.
"Maybe, but that's the life of a Shinobi. Tha's the path I chose to walk in this life," said Naruto.
"Baka," said Inari turning and leaving.
"I'm sorry about Inari," said Tsunami walking from the house.
"You have no need to apologies. His actions and thoughts are his own and not of your doing," said Naruto.
Tsunami smiled. "I'm afraid Inari takes after his birth father," said Tsunami
Naruto looked at her in confusion. "Birth father?" asked Naruto.
Tsunami nodded to Naruto. "Hai. I was married twice. The first time was to Inari's birth father. We actually managed to obtain this home as inheritance from his family after they died. Everything from the lake to 10 archers of land was given to us. He died a few years after Inari was born. Then 4 years ago I met my second husband... Kaiza," said Tsunami with tears in her eyes.
Naruto didn't say a word. It was not his place to speak on the things that happened in her life.
Location: Land of Waves
Place: Bar in Capital
Time: 1800 (Thursday)
Anko sat on the corner of the wearing a rather revealing Kimono that wasn't so elegant as to overly stand out. Just a splash of blue with a black sash. Over her hair she wore a black wig and had black contacts in her eyes. Sometimes the best disguise were simple. While she could have been relaxing at the house she needed to be out here 'working' as a prostitute to get information out of the men who were browsing the goods on display.
"Did you hear about the bounty Gato put out?" asked a drunk Mercenary.
"Damn right I did. A million Ryo for information leading to the capture of the people who burned his camps, boats, and warehouses down. Double if it's women. I never thought i'd see the day where someone would fight Gato," said The man next to him.
"Whoever it what that did it has Gato's pissed off. From the rumor all of them are females and Gato wants to break them personally," said The original man.
"He can do it. To much of a bitch," said the man.
Anko narrowed her eyes. That was problematic. Anko downed the last of her drink before she slipped out of the bar with not a person noticing her escape. An old slight of hand trick her Sensei taught her. She made haste back to the house with this information. She needed to know a few things. As she approached the house she saw Kakashi's brats laying on the ground. With their feet dipped into the water soaking wet. Hell Hinata was wearing only her black bra and panty-more like a thong- set.
"What's wrong with you brats?" asked Anko.
"Kakashi-sensei is teaching us how to water walk," groaned Sasuke Sasuke.
"I already knew how to tree walk, but this is brutal," said Mitsuki as he glared at Hinata.
Hinata shrugged. "Not my fault this is one of the first things 10 year olds in my clan learn," said the lavender eyed girl sticking out her tounge.
"Were's Tazuna at?" asked Anko.
"Inside," said Sasuke.
Anko walked to the door, but was stopped from opening it as Naruto stormed out his teeth gritted in anger. The snake Mistress was a bit shocked by this. Naruto rarely lost his temper. Anko ran into the house and found a sight that she didn't think she would see. Tsunami and Tazuna looked ashamed while Chocho and Sarada were crying and Kakashi was gripping the table.
"What the hell happened!?" asked Anko going into Mama bear mode.
They may not be her blood, but those three were here kids and she would sooner give up her hunt for Orochiko, before she allowed them to be in pain again.
Tazuna told her what happened, about the Past of Wave, Tsunami's second husband, About Naruto talking on their past. Everything she missed in the last 20 minutes. After a moment Anko calmed down and sent the girls away. She didn't want to see them in pain. She would sort Naruto out later
"Is-is it true?" asked Tsunami. "Were they really treated so badly?"
"Hai," said Kakashi. "Sarada is the last descendant of our greatest traitor so she carries that burden not just from her dead clan, but everyone, Chocho is the child of an experment by the village to produce a powerful bloodline. Technicality she is the child of a gang rape that the Village saw fit to implement. Naruto... I can not speak on what happened to Naruto as it is an S-ranked secret that carries the death penalty if spoken aloud. Beatings, burning, waterboarding, and so much more. It's nightmare stuff what that boy went though,"
"What did we do in our past lives to be born into such a fucked up era?" asked Tazuna removing his glasses and rubbing his tear stained eyes.
Anko sighed as much as she wanted to pummel the Kid she had to take care of business.
"Tazuna... who knows where you live and that we're here?" asked Anko.
Tazuna looked at her. "only those I trust which is few and far between know about my house, but even fewer actually know I haired you guys. Three men who helped foot the bill for the mission. Why?" asked Tazuna.
Anko would spend the next hour speaking with the others about what was happening.
Location: Land of Waves
Place: Surrounding forests
Time: 0900 (Friday)
Haku walked though the woods humming to herself as she picked the herbs needed to help Zabuza-sama. Haku enjoyed her alone time in the forest. Sure she had a few run-ins with Gato's men, but they were quite easily handled. The average Bandit and merc was comparable to an academy student. Of course when you got a army of weaklings and a pile of cash then you could have the illusion of real power.
A bird landed on her shoulder. She smiled at it, before it took off and flow away. She looked in the direction it flow and her eyes widened. The clearing was destroyed, trees were damaged, burned, and cut. In the center of this maelstrom of destruction was the boy that she met when all this started. He was sleeping peacefully. As Haku watched him something deep inside her told her that this man was the biggest threat to not only Zabuza, but her brother as well.
She reached her hand to his neck, prepared to end him as a threat. Mere inches away from his neck she stopped. She had killed countless people before. It pained her kind heart, but she did it for the sake of her loved ones. A hand shot up and grabbed her wrist. Before she knew it she was pinned under the man. He took a kunai and put it to her throat, he drew a small bit of blood.
"Who are you?" asked Naruto.
"She's far to familiar with death," thought Naruto looking into her eyes which held no fear.
"My name is Haku. Yuki Haku. I was gathering medical herbs for my uncle. He was injured recently by some of Gato's men. my brother watches over him now,"
"I see. And the dagger?" asked Naruto.
Haku cursed herself for forgetting about the dagger hidden under her kimono. "Protection and a last resort. Gato's men are quite relentless in the pursuit of young women. I've come close several times to being raped," said Haku without missing a beat.
Naruto hummed for a moment, before getting up. "Sorry about the reaction. I felt killing intent near me and reacted," said Naruto reaching out with his hand offering to help her up.
Haku smiled and took his hand. "It's fine. Would you like to help me pick the herbs?" asked Haku.
Over the course of the next hour Haku and Naruto got to know each other just a tad bit better. Haku learned of Naruto's close relationship to his team while Haku explained things about her 'family'. Once done the duo sat under a tree as Haku pulled out some sandwiches she made.
"Tell me something Naruto-san what were you doing out in the middle of the woods? Gato's men love patrolling for run away slaves and people trying to escape from Wave.
Naruto finished off his sandwich as he downed some tea. "I was blowing off steam. Last night a little kid pissed me off and I wanted to work off some rage," said Naruto.
Haku tilted her head. "No offense Naruto-san, but you don't look the type to get mad over little things," said Haku.
Naruto looked at the sky. "I'm not. The things he said reminded me of the past. A past I want to forget," said Naruto.
Haku smiled. As she put a hand over her heart. "We all have a past we wish to forget Naruto-san. Everyone has something in their hearts they wish to forget. I myself wish to forget something that haunts me. As Long as I have my uncle and Brother... then I will be fine. They give me strength.," said Haku.
The blond nodded, before standing. "We have a saying in Konoha. It was created by our Fourth Hokage. Those who break the rules are Trash, but those who abandon their comrades are lower then that. I personally don't believe that saying," said Naruto.
Haku frowned hearing this. "Why is that?" asked Haku.
"Because many of my so called comrades have hurt those I consider my family in the past. My own belief is you don't mess with a man's Family. Actually it's what my whole team believes. You don't mess with our family. Hana-Kaa, Anko-kaa, Cho-chan, Sara-chan. We are family, even if we arn't related though blood," said Naruto.
Haku looked at the man before her. He shared that with her. His family was everything to him.
"Thanks for the meal Hunter-chan," said Naruto making Haku stiffen. "I enjoyed our conversation, but the next time we meet... It will be on the battlefield,"
Haku stood and looked at Naruto. "I agree to that, but be warned that my Nii-sama has his eyes on you," said Haku.
Naruto didn't need to be told twice as he walked away. Their conversation marked the Countdown on the clock. It would only be a Week, before they met again as enemies.

And Cut. Next chapter is most likely going to be much longer then this since I have to tie up some loose ends with the Wave Arc.
