It's finally here.

I skip around a lot in this chapter so bear with me. Ok R&R!!

A snake's legacy chapter 9: A contact and a ferret

Tsuande looked over the orders that team 8 and Inshi had secured from the sound nins a third time. Apparently after the sound ninjas were done harassing leaf nins they were headed off to Suna to meet up with someone. Interrogation of confirmed this.

Later

Tsuande was speaking to the jonin of the Kohona 9 in her office about the upcoming chunnin exams.

"I'm sending your teams to Suna with Anko and Inshi acting as guards."

"Are you sure Hokage-sama?" Kurenai asked "You might need us to go on missons."

"Yes, the only reason I'm sending both Anko and Inshi because they already have an assignment that brings them to the area." She answered.

In Suna two days later at night…

The Genin of Kohona, there sensei's, Anko, and Inshi were in there Hotel rooms. They were staying free of charge in Suna's nicest hotel (you know because of the whole invasion thing?) Naruto was sitting on the balcony with a book of famous shinobi. He was reading about the 4th Hokage. It said he had similar beliefs as him and hell even the same blood type. It also said he loved ramen.

In a fit of rage, Naruto threw the book over the edge and tossed a kunai through it. He gripped the bars of the balcony and slammed his head into the steel.

"Are any of my beliefs actually my own?" He asked himself.

"Inshi-kun?" Hinata said as she stepped outside

"Hello." he responded turning around and letting go of the metal "Hinata-chan shouldn't you be asleep"?

"I'm nervous about the exams"

"Don't be you'll, do fine now go back to sleep"

"Um…I-Inshi-kun why did you throw a kunai trough that book?" The girl asked nervously.

"It's a long story Hinata-chan it's a long story…"

The next day

As it turns out the exams in each village are very different. For instance the exams in Suna had 2 exams the first was a combination of Kohona's first and second exam, then the second was a fighting tournament.

For the first exam each team was sent into a giant cavern and tasked with finding a scroll while there were angry summons walking around. Team 8 was taken by a jonin and shunsined(sp?) into a part of the cavern. Hinata turned on her dojutsu and led her team trough are dark area occasionally stopping to avoid an odd looking bull summon.

As they continued trough they found an odd house were a large (An: by large I mean like 10ft tall) brown haired ferret summon was lying down. Hinata looked into the building to see a scroll in the rubble.

"There's a scroll in there" Hinata whispered

"We have to sneak by the summon then grab the scroll and get out".

"Doton: Iwayado Kuzushi (Earth Release: Rock Lodging Destruction)!" A voice called out and a rock fell onto the ferret. Three Iwa nins stood up from behind the other side of a rock and walked towards the house.

Somewhere in Suna

Anko and Naruto sat in a restaurant under a henge they were waiting for a guy the sound nin were supposed to meet. (An: they henged into the sound nins they killed but not wearing hitiates)

"When's this guy supposed to get here" Anko asked

"I don't know but be patient"

Anko munched on some dango as a tall bald man in grey anbu pants and a sand colored jacket walked into the restaurant. He wore standard sand nin attire. He sat down in front of Anko.

"Yuki and Tari I assume" He said

"You're our contact" Naruto asked

Back in the cavern

"Ok when they come back my Bugs will latch onto the first one trough the door, then Kiba you hit the rest with you attack" Shino told his team.

The girl of there team walked out carrying the scroll she had long brown hair and wore green shirt and a pair of green pants. Shino's bugs crawled towards her as she began to throw the scroll up and down. She sat down on a rock and the bugs latched onto her legs. The second person who came out was a tall boy in all black.

Kiba launched his Gatsūga (double piercing fang) and slammed into the two Iwa nins in the house. The girl stood up and started making handseals. Doton: Dochū Eigyo no Jutsu (Under ground fish projection) and she hid under the ground. The boy who hadn't left the "house" left and started landing blows into Kiba's stomach.

Back in the restaurant

The man handed them a scroll.

"That's your new orders"

"Why the hell would we come all the way here just to get our next assignment why didn't we just go back to sound" Anko asked immediately wishing she hadn't. The contact looked up and hid the scroll. He reached over the table and did something with his chakra because Anko's henge dropped.

"Who are you two?"

Back in the cavern

Hinata Staggered back words as the girl jumped out of the ground and kicked her. The girl fell to the ground as the bugs sucked out her remaining chakra. The boy fighting Kiba jumped back as the other boy rammed into him. Shino tripped the boy in black and his bugs got to work.

Hinata started jabbing away at the one who attacked Kiba. The Iwa Nin who rammed Kiba jumped back and made hand seals. Akumaru latched onto the boys arms and interrupted the jutsu. The Last Iwa nin threw some Kunai then ran over to the boy in black. They nodded at each other then the boy in black ran towards Team 8. He was making handseals but he never finished them because something slammed into him and knocked him out.

Back in the restaurant

Anko Jumped over the table after the contact who had just fled the restaurant. "Inshi" Made hand seals and a large earth wall rose and Kept the contact from fleeing. Anko threw some kunai and charge in. The Bald man smirked and grabbed the kunai out of the air. Anko started slashing at her opponent but he blocked all of her kunai strokes. She threw the kunai as the bald man jumped, she dropped to one knee and used her Sen'eijashu (hidden snake shadow hands) the snakes flew towards her foe but missed. The bald man kicked Anko away and started his own jutsu. Doton: yochi hebi. Naruto's eyes widened as he pushed Anko out of the way of the as a giant earth snake slammed into the ground, Barley missing the leaf nins. Naruto Pulled out his katana and his opponent mimicked him. Naruto stabbed foreword and started to slash in small movements looking for an opening in the taller mans guard. He found one and kind of slid under and landed a cut on the contacts shoulder.

"You look familiar have we meet" The man in grey asked as he landed a similar blow on Naruto.

"I make it a point to kill any sound nin I meet so No I don't think so". Naruto began another series of slashes but was stopped by the contact who blocked and shoved him back.

"That's how I know you you were" He started. Naruto began a frenzied assault to shut him up. Anko looked at Inshi for a minute then reused her Sen'eijashu to attack The Bald man when Inshi dropped to the ground grabbing his neck.

Naruto looked at his reflection in his katana as he tried to pull himself up and he saw a Green spiral on his neck what no why did it come back? Anko landed a few hits on her opponent then ran back to help Inshi.

"Get your lazy ass up and help me She yelled pulling him up. Naruto made hand seals and fired his jutsu. Doryūdan (earth release: earth dragon bullet) two voices called out as Naruto's and His taller opponent's Justu's slammed into each other. Naruto used the momentary distraction of his enemy's recoil and Shunshined(sp?) behind the man with the sand colored jacket.

Back with team 8

The Ferret Roared and charged The Genin. Kiba Grabbed his dog and they used Jūjin Bunshin (Beast human clone) And Slammed into The Summon. The ferret hit Kiba with his tail and He slammed into the wall. Shino's bugs grabbed on to its legs but it started stamping around. The Iwan Nin started another set of handseals. Doton: Iwayado Kuzushi. The rock that disabled the ferret the first time was knocked into the Iwa nin.

"Hinata the legs" Shino said as he threw some Shurikin(sp?) to distract the summon. Hinata disabled one of the Ferrets legs but was shoved into a rock pile by its tail. The summon Growled at Akumaru who had the idea to Latch onto his tail. Kiba Launched another Gatsūga and the summon was reduced to smoke.

Shino's bugs returned to his body and he took the scroll off the unconscious Iwa nin.

"Should we just leave them here?" Hinata Asked

"I don't see why not There Sensei will come find them" Kiba answered. Shino opened the scroll and looked at what they were to do next.

Back on the surface.

Naruto Held the kunai next to the Souns nin's next as he held a quiet conversation with him

"Just like your donors" he said

"How did you know that?" He asked angrily

"The marks a dead give away" He answered "and using Orochimaru's jutsus". Naruto quickly slit the contacts throat and let him drop to the ground. He pulled his hood up so It covered the mark. He gripped his shoulder as Anko walked over to him.

"What's wrong with your neck?" she asked

"Nothing" He replied picking the scroll off the corpse "were heading back now". As headed towards the hotel Anko noticed him Grip his neck once the let go. She may Have noticed the slightly more important him dropping to the ground had she not been lost in thought.

End chapter
