Hidden by the Fox

Chapter 8: Hired Goons

The Ninjas guide has this to say on the Mangekyo Sharingan: The final and ultimate form of the sharingan. There are three types of Mangekyo Sharingan all three can be acquired by killing your best friend. However there is also a unique ways to an acquire one of the different types of mangekyo sharingan.

The Kaleidoscope Sharingan: this Sharingan makes the eye appear to have a pupil shaped like a tri-bladed shurikin. This version grants the user access to three ultimate techniques, Susano, Amaterasu, and Tsukiyomi. The Kaleidoscope Sharingan can be acquired by killing a Ninjutsu, Genjutsu, and Taijutsu specialist of the Uchiha clan. The only user of this type of Sharingan is Uchiha Itachi. (See: Uchiha Itachi)

The Pinwheel Sharingan: This version makes the eye appear to have a pupil shaped like a pinwheel. The user of the sharingan can slow the flow of time around things, as well as speed it up. It also grants the user the ability to warp things into another dimension, effectively destroying them. It is believed that in order to achieve this sharingan you must set foot on another dimension.

The Top Sharingan: This version of the sharingan manifests as a back pupil with three red commas rotating within it. The powers of this sharingan are unknown. But in order to acquire it, one must totally consume themselves with thoughts of revenge. The only one to have achieved this sharingan is Uchiha Madara.

Crash the sound of a dish breaking echoed through the house.

The Gennin in the house woke up instantly. "Hinata your Byakugan!" Haku hissed.

The veins around Hinata's bulged as she scanned the house. "There three goons in the kitchen, two sneaking up behind the house, and at least 8 waiting just outside the front door."

"Okay, Gaara you take the ones behind the house. Kimimaro and Hinata, because you're good with close range combat, you take the ones in the kitchen. I'll sit on the overhang and snipe those outside. Naruto and Sasuke, you'll use a Substitution Jutsu to get behind the group outside," Haku instructed. "Now I think we should give those goons a good scare, don't you agree?" Everyone nodded, and Haku continued, "Okay I'm going to place a genjutsu on us, that makes us look like demons. It should give us a fear advantage." Haku sped through a chain of hand seals. "Demonic Visage Jutsu."

There was a poof of smoke and the jutsu took effect. Naruto looked like he had accessed the Kyuubi's chakra in the one-tail form. Sasuke's skin had turned a dark red, his hair had turned white, he had claws, a black cross on his face, and two hand-like wings sprouting from his back. Hinata had gone totally white and had become semi transparent her body glowed with a white aura, making her look like a spectre. Haku's skin had turned black and he had sprouted two bat-like wings, a tail, and his eyes glowed yellow. Gaara looked like he had turned into Shukaku's half-human transformation. Kimimaro had thick leathery grey skin and a reptilian tail.

"Let's do it!" Naruto said, as everyone got into their positions.

The goons sneaking through the house suddenly saw a girl that was white as a sheet and glowed with a white light.

"What are you?" one of the goons stammered out.

"Your doom," a voice behind them said. "Dance of the Fireweed!"

The goons spun around to see Kimimaro standing there, as bone shot out of his forearms. Two of the goons drew their swords and brought them down. Kimimaro raised his hands and the blades broke against the bones. Then the third goon gave a surprised yelled and fell to the floor in a limp heap. Hinata was standing over him in her Hybrid Stance. The other two turned their heads to look at what had happened only to be pinned to the wall with bone spikes. Hinata then knocked them out with Hybrid Strikes to the legs, arms and head.

"That was too easy," Kimimaro remarked.

Outside, Gaara was waiting. Then the two goons burst through the foliage.

"Desert Coffin," the two goons were encased in sand up to their heads. "Desert Head-Hunter."

The sand pressed itself together to form sandstone. The two goons coughed up blood as the stone constricted around their bodies, crushing the internal organs.

"At least they were not Suna assassins," Gaara thought. "I would have done something even worse to them."

Near the front of the house the mercenaries got the hell scared out of them when a thing with glowing yellow eyes and giant bat wings, landed on the overhand and began to shoot long needles at them.

In the bushes Naruto was talking to Sasuke. "Okay, we jump out of the bushes and blast fire jutsus at them. Then I will swarm them with my Demon Pack Shadow Clones, and you start attacking the first one you see.

The two boys jumped out of the bushes. "Grand Fireball Jutsu!" they yelled, as they launched two fireballs at the panicked group of thugs. To the goons it looked like two demons were breathing fire at them. All hell broke lose. Naruto created five Shadow Clones that were made to look like they were demons. Sasuke singled out one guy and began to beat the crap out of him. While Haku kept sniping everyone who tried to escape.

Half an hour later the ground was littered with the bodies of eight unconscious goons.

"Good work you guys, excellent use of local superstitions," Obito said to the Gennin of Team 5. "We didn't have to step in once. Tomorrow we will be working on chakra control. So good night."

Gato's Hideout five hours later…

"Thirteen men taken down by six brats…" the business man muttered to himself. Gato raised his head to look at the men sitting across the room. One man had a pale complexion and long silver hair. The other had a black cloth covering his entire face except his eyes and wore a Sand headband. "You can take care of the bridge builder, right?" Gato hissed at the two men.

"Of course we can," The man with silver hair said, standing up and walking over to Gato. "Just one thing…" Bone erupted from his chest and impaled the business man. "We're not interested in your money…"

He withdrew the bone back into his body, and Gato slumped to the floor, dead. Gato's two bodyguards moved for their swords, only to be stabbed through the throat by the silver haired man.

The silver man turned to the Sand Ninja. "You get the Shukaku Container, I get the Jounin." The Sand Ninja nodded in agreement.

The silver haired man walked out of Gato's office, and dismembered the two guards out side. He then moved deeper into the building.

Screams were heard coming for within the building that night.

Authors Note: Well that takes care of Gato.

And Kakashi does not have the Sharingan, because Obito is alive.

For those who have read my story True Power… I am curious as to how they compare.

I know my writing skills have improved since I started true power.
