The Mission

"Alright, you guys wanted a three on one rematch, well you got it." Naruto said as he activated his sharingan/rinnegan. "I'm sorry but I couldn't find a way to only activate one at a time, or even switch it to the normal sharingan, needless to say it's not like the mengekyou where you can switch back and forth. But I figure that it would be fine since you have the sharingan, and it's three on one. I mean three jounin, against one genin, that's fair, right Shikamaru?"

"I think that you are over looking something. We are all A rank ninja, but with those doujutsu that you have, that would make you an S rank." Kakashi pointed out.

"But he is still a genin." Butted in Asuma.

"No he became a jounin a month ago." Tsunade interjected. "Even without those eyes, he was on par with Jiraiya in sage mode. And when the old pervert takes him from you guys in two years, he's planning on taking him to mount myoboku, for sage training." At that last statement Kurenei and Asuma sweat-dropped. And Kakashi stared at him with pride.

"Well can we get on with it, I would like to get this over with so we can all go train." The boy said impatiently.

"Yeah, yeah, just let me uncover mine." Kakashi demanded.

"Yeah, but hurry up. You know it's funny, you're the "copy ninja" but I can copy more jutsu than you, and now I don't even need Kyubi-chan to use her chakra to break genjutsu." As soon as he said this Kurenei realized that she wouldn't be very effective in this battle. "Alright, why is team two here?" Blurted out Naruto.

"Because the kids caught wind of it, or more like Kakashi told Obito, and they wanted to watch the fight. Plus I wanted to see Kakashi-kun." Rin explained, while winking at Kakashi, "Plus Obito thinks that his father is unbeatable, which is probably true."

"Alright, but I'm sure Naru-kun is tired of proving people wrong this week. Kakashi-sensei is strong, but only A rank, Naru-kun is an S rank ninja, as strong as the sannin." Ino, Obito, and Rin all looked at Tsunade, and Jiraiya for conformation. Both of which of coarse nodded.

Kakashi spoke up to the kids, and said "In this ninja world, their are kids younger than you, yet stronger than me. This is a prime example, I'm sure all of you know of this, but Naruto is a year younger than all of you." They stared at the dead last in their class, with new eyes, he took the number one tool of the ninja to the extreme. The number one tool to a ninja, is deception.

"Alright Ba-chan, can you start us off?"

"Ready?" She looked at the fighters and got some nods from all of them. "Then, fight." As soon as the word left her lips Kakashi, and Kurenei hid in the bushes. While Asuma, and Naruto stayed. He deactivated his doujutsu, and took out a book, "Tales of a Gutsy Ninja", Asuma charged with his trench knives out and ready to use. With a flash Naruto had his mom's katana out and blocking every move he made. A knife was coming from both sides. He went into his own version of the gental fist, it still had the regular stance, but with red chakra completely covering his arms, he hit Asuma dead center in the stomach knocking him out. He walked over to the body and said "Lesson one: taijutsu." He then jumped into the forest until he found Kurenei running from him, he activated his sharingan, and said "lesson two: genjutsu." She heard this and made the mistake of looking into his eye. She was wondering around the red area until she found a dead Asuma. Back in the real world Kakashi and Naruto were starring each other in the eye, like two gun slingers. "Alright Kakashi, why don't we finish this, I don't want you to copy this one, just yet. cover your sharingan. Mines deactivated, lets finish this. You use your chidori I'll use my own jutsu." Kakashi did as he was told, he waited till Naruto finished his jutsu, it started out just as a resengan, but then he added some lightning, it looked like a spinning ball of lightning. It was so bright it could have blinded anyone. Kakashi then made the chidori. They ran at each other, as soon as the lightning jutsus hit a black orb absorbed them. As soon as the orb disappeared everyone saw that Kakashi was on the ground unconscious. Naruto said "Lesson three: Ninjutsu." right before he disappeared in a cloud of white smoke.

Everyone was thinking the same thing, "a shadow clone?" Then out came the real Naruto, and he said, "So I take it the battle went well?" He just got angery stares from everyone for fooling them, and an attack from Hinata, kissing him.

"That was a congratulatory kiss." She opened her hand and smacked him and said, "That was for tricking everyone." They all nodded in agreement.

"Well I was with the Hokage, he gave Team Kakashi a mission. This is classified, team two, please leave." All of team two grumbled, but complied. "Alright, we are going to the land of waves, to protect a bridge builder. It's only a C rank mission, but from what I've heard from the builder, he's lying. The Hokage agrees, but we will leave right away, meet me at the North Gate, at one o'clock. Don't be late, Kakashi." Naruto ordered everyone. The jounin were confused as to why he was giving the orders. "One more thing, Ji-Ji put me in charge of this mission, got it." He got a few "Yes sir's" and nods, but he could see that they were still not sure about him leading. "If we run into any major trouble, I want Hinata, Shikamaru, and Kurenei to stand guard around the bridge builder, while Kakashi, and I will be fighting with the threat. Asuma, I want you to be our second line of defense, If he gets through, I want you to get him. Kurenei, I want you to put the attacker/s under a paralyzing genjutsu. While she does that Shikamaru, use shadow possession on him. Hinata, use 64 palms on him. Got it?" More "yes sirs" and nods. "Alright, our traveling formation will be, I will be in the front, then Asuma, he will be caring the bridge builder, then Hinata, with the byakugan activated, Kurenai, Shikamaru, and last Kakashi. Any questions?" They replied with "no sir"s. "Alright, dismissed, remember one o'clock, on the dot." As he looked at everyone, he could tell that the three other jounin were hesitant, but Hinata, and Shikamaru were anything but.

As everyone one left to eat, and get ready. But Naruto and Hinata were walking slowly with each other when Hinata said to him, "you know? You never took me out on a date."

"You're right. Would you due me the honor of taking you to lunch?" He asked her, nonchalantly.

She got really close to him, standing on her toes. He could feel her lips brush up against his, she gave him a little peck, before replying. "Hell no, we have a mission to get ready for. You go get ready, team leader." She said the last part, in a mocking, yet playful tone.

He left her to be on his way, he had to talk to Kyubi-chan about his eyes. He arrived at the compound, and went straight to his room. He sat on his bed and meditated. In his mind it was peaceful. The area was a meadow. It was warm, and cool. Right in the middle was a fox, about as large as a couch. He walked right up to the fox and started scratching behind her ears. She stirred in her sleep when she realized who had woken her, she immediately changed form. She was short women, with long red hair, and fox ears, and a tight red dress. She had nine red fox tails with black tips. "Kyubi-chan, what do you know about what happened to my eyes? And what bloodline did the Uzumaki clan have? Please tell me what you know."

"Relax kit, the Uzumaki clan did have a bloodline, but it was only shown in those who had me sealed inside of them. So only your mother, and your grandmother had this. Before that I was sealed inside of one of the Senju clan. But nothing happened with them. It was the rinnegan." She informed him.

"Alright, but what about this child that Jiraiya spoke of?" He asked her.

"His village had stolen the eyes of your grandmother, and put them into that child. But the Namikaze clan also had a bloodline, but it was not spoken of, it in fact was the four tomas sharingan. They thought that it was an Uchiha bloodline. It is unheard of to have two doujutsus, but my presence in you could have something to do with it."

"Thank you Kyubi-chan, I must get going." As he finished he disappeared.

"Damn, why can't I get out of this seal, that boy belongs to me." Kyubi said angrily.

Naruto looked at the clock it was ten minutes to one. He grabbed his backpack and sealed it in one of the seals on his body. He ran out the door and sprinted to the North Gate. As he arrived he saw everyone was there except for Kakashi. "Damn him, I'll be right back." And with that he disappeared in a yellow flash. As soon as he was gone, they saw Kakashi flying through the air with a boot print on his ass. As he land Naruto appeared in front of everyone. "Next time you will be here before me, got it?" Kakashi nodded. "Alright, lets go."

"Hold on a minute," everyone turned around and looked at the man they were supposed to protect. "I asked for ninja, and I get, a cyclops, a muscle head, a red eyed freak, a lazy dick, a midget, and a shy bimbo." With that last comment, Naruto activated his Sharingan and placed him in a genjutsu.

"Nobody bad mouths Nata-chan. Asuma, pick him up, we have to leave." And with that they were flying through the trees at top speed. They Had gotted far enough from the Leaf where they could walk. Naruto noticed a puddle, it had been weeks since it last rained. But decided to watch what others did. As expected the other jounin did the same. Hinata had deactivated her byakugan, since if over used would render her useless in a fight. Shikamaru was cloud watching so he didn't even notice it. As soon as Kakashi past the puddle, two figures emerged and tied chains around Kakashi, Asuma, and Kurenei it crushed them. Hinata, and Shikamaru both went and protected Tazuna. While Naruto was fighting the two, within seconds the two were chained up with their own chains. Kakashi, Asuma, and Kurenei then came out of a bush. "Good job handling yourself. You both did as I told you to do." Naruto praised them, while walking over to Hinata and gave her a kiss, when the two were finished he turned to Kakashi, "Hatake information on these two."

"They go by "the demon brothers", they are missing nin from the Village Hidden in the Mist. Rank- B, Bounty- three thousand ryo." Replied the cyclops ninja.

"Alright, I'm going to make some clones to set up camp, and turn these two in. Asuma, I want you to go and scout ahead, I want you back here in a half hour. Tazuna, you and I half to talk." And with that Asuma was gone, and Naruto made five clones, one went to turn in the "demon brothers". Camp was set up in minutes, their were five tents, one for Asuma and Kurenei, one for Naruto and Hinata, one for Kakashi, one for Shikamaru, and one for Tazuna. "Tazuna, Kakashi, come here." They did as they were told, "Alright, why did you lie? This is at least a B rank mission. Someone could have died."

"The land of waves did not have enough money to pay for a B rank mission. You see we have fallen victim to a man called Gato, he has stopped all trade to our small nation. Many of us barley have enough to feed our families. The bridge that I'm building will connect to us too the main land and will let us to be free from Gato's rule over us. Please continue the mission, you may be young, but you have enough man power to take anyone we may encounter." The man pleaded with the two.

"Kakashi, you have more experience, what do you think. Are the other two ready for this kind of thing?" Naruto asked worried.

"Well they have no experience, but they did show that they could be calm under attack. Yes they are ready." He explained to the young boy.

"Very well, we will continue with the mission, but I want you to pay for an A rank mission for lying to us, if you don't agree to those terms, we will leave you to die." He said it with enough KI to make the man cry. But he eventual agreed. The clone that went to turn in the body finally returned with the money. "Hinata, Shikamaru for keeping calm earlier, and following my orders here you go." He handed them five-teen hundred ryo each. He called everyone together, "Asuma report." He ordered.

"There seems to be a few bandits up ahead, they don't look like much of a threat." He told everyone.

"Alright, this mission is now a B rank. We may come in contact with more ninja trying to kill Tazuna, be on guard. We will guards on duty, I don't want my clones to feel over worked, yes clones have feelings. So you can use shadow clones if you want, but only for your watch. Hinata and I will take first watch, then Kakashi and Shikamaru, and then Asuma and Kurenei. Three hour watch intervals. Now get some sleep." Everyone went to there tents and laid down, except Naruto and Hinata. He made some shadow clones and told them to wake the next two in three hours. He and Hinata went to there tent, he had placed some silencing seals earlier, so they wouldn't be bothered.

They awoke to Kakashi shaking them and telling them that they should be on there way. "Alright, go wake the others. We aren't far from the water, we'll walk from here." He told him to do, and he did. He could see that all doubt, that he couldn't lead them, was gone. Kakashi left to go wake the others. When the two came out of there tent he looked at everyone just waking up slowly. "Alright, Kakashi and I will go on ahead and take care of those bandits. Asuma, you're in charge until I get back." Both he and Kakashi were long gone. They found a total of four hideouts. They only took them five minutes each one. They rushed back to the rest of their squad, "Asuma, report."

"No troubles, just the old man complaining." He told him.

"Alright, we are only a mile away from the water. I made preparation with a boat man to get us to the island. Fall in, lets go." They did as they were told. And as they arrived at the dock a think fog rolled in. "I don't think this is a real fog. Stay on your toes. Get into our defensive spots." Just as he finish a large sword came flying at them, Naruto brought up his hand and caught it. '"the Executioner's Blade." a fine sword." As he finished everyone noted that it was getting hot around them, the sword started to turn red, and finally melt. "But useless against me. Kakashi, you'll need both eyes for this guy. He is a high A rank, low S rank, Asuma help him out. I'll be going after his S rank companion."

"Be careful Naruto-kun." Hinata whisper to him. He looked back at her with a slight smirk, and winked at her.

"You will pay for that blade." I man with bandages around his mouth, no eyebrows, and no shirt materialized out of nowhere.

"I doubt it, Kakashi, Asuma get to work." He took out his sword and started spinning in a tunnel like fashion before he yelled, "Wind style: crescent blades." The mist started to move away, as soon as it was all gone he jumped to a tree. "Haku, is it? Well no matter, lets get this show on the road." He still had his sword out, and Haku jumped away, and as he landed he formed a few hand signs and blades made of ice appeared on his arms, attach by his fore arms. "Thank you for adding to my list of jutsu." He had his sharingan/rinnegan activated. In truth he always had them activated, it barley took any chakra. It was like taking a grain of sand on a beach. But he was always hiding them with a genjutsu over himself, even know he had it over himself. They started to clash swords and he grew tired of it, so he put some wind chakra into his blade slicing threw the ice blades, and even his arm.

"Haku, retreat." Zabuza yelled and caught both their attention. He looked over and saw an unconscious Asuma, a badly injured Kakashi, and an equally injured Zabuza. The two started running. He ran to pick up the two, with the help of some chakra in his arms.

"We will allow them to retreat for now, we need time to let them recover. The boat man is probable dead, I will fly us there." Before anyone could ask how they were in the air.

"How are you making us fly?" Tazuna asked.

"We aren't really flying. I can control gravity, so I switched the center of gravity the island. We are actually falling." As they reached the island there "decent" was slowed a bit. "Tazuna, take us to your house right away." They ran on their way, it took them ten minutes to get to the house, it wouldn't have taken them so long if they didn't have a civilian with them. He ran and found an empty bedroom on the second floor to place Kakashi and Asuma. He came back down the steps and turned to his team. Alright, we know that Zabuza and Haku are still alive. From the injuries that those two gave him he should be out for at least a week. But I gave Haku some major injuries, he should be out for two weeks, but Zabuza will push him to be ready in a week. Those two will unconscious for two days, and not be able to fight for a week. Kurenie, I want you to train those two tree walking." Everyone went on their way, Naruto went to find out if he could use the ice jutsu. Hinata, Shikamaru, and Kurenei went to find some trees for their training. Naruto was in the same vicinity, in case some thing happened, he left a clone at the house, for the same reason. He could see that they were doing well. He thought that he was doing pretty good, he could use the ice style jutsu, but he thought that he would be limited to the sword jutsu, he could do any of the jutsu. He thought that the fact that his strongest affinities (wind, water) had something to do with this. He found that he could form things with water, and then freeze it. Though he found that he didn't have to take the time to form things like kunei, or senbon. He took a senbon, through it at a tree, and found that even with out wind chakra it went right through the tree. He found a stump, and stabbed another senbon into it. He used a fired jutsu to test the melting tempature. As soon as the jutsu died he saw that the senbon wasn't gone, just thinner. He through it at another tree, this time it only pirsed the bark. He thought that it would be a great tool. Then thought about trying to combine fire, wind, and lightning style to creat fire storm on his enemies. He looked over at Hinata and Shikamaru, checking on their training. Hinata was on top of the tree, and Shikamaru was on top. He made an ice kunei, and threw it at Hinata, thinking that if you can't fight on the tree, then you haven't mastered it.

She saw the kunei, and caught it. He saw that she was looking at it weirdly. He floated to the top, using gravity, and explained to her that it was ice. "It's not cold." She commented. He made another and held it for a while. Then realized that she was right. He just mused "hmmm."

He waited till Shikamaru has completed the training exercise, before he released his plan. It was another hour before he told them. "Alright, listen closely. Shikamaru and I will be working together, and you two will be working together. If you wish, I will explain my reasoning for your placement." They nodded. "I want you two to grow close. Neither one of you will see any other women for another five years Plus you compliment each other's attacks. Hinata with your taijutsu, and Kurenei with your genjutsu. If we had two ninjutsu types they would get in each others way, if we had a ninjutsu and taijutsu team, the taijutsu type would get hit by a jutsu. Shikamaru and I would go nice because my taijutsu is better than his, and he can form a strategy." Everyone nodded in understanding. "When Kakashi and Asuma are healed, I'll work with Kakashi, Shikamaru and Asuma, Hinata and Kurenei. When not guarding I expect you to be training. Alright get to the house, you are all tired. I'll be there in an hour." They left and as soon as they were out of ear, and eye sight he turned around and spoke, "Alright come out." A short man, wearing a pin-stripe suit, smoking a cigar, and wearing a monocle, stepped out with five guards. "What do you want?"

"I want you to join us, anyone that can do that much to Haku, and Zabuza is worth paying. And if you don't I'll kill her." He pointed to a girl that looked like Hinata, she was bound and gagged.

"Nice try, but you guys are idiots." He walked over to the girl and started to absorb the chakra. She turned into a very pale Haku. "You can't handle fighting me just yet." He put his hand out and an ice senbon materialized. He put it to Haku's neck. "And if you lay a hand on Hinata, I'll let you know why demons fear me." He said it with enough KI to make everyone, and every demon bow to him. The short man and all of his guards, including Haku were either unconscious, or dead. He didn't care which one. He left them and went to the house. He saw two people that he didn't see before. A woman, and a small boy. The woman waved.

"Ah, there you are Naruto, I was just telling my daughter, Tsunami, and my grandson, Inari, about our trip. That little kid over there is leading this mission to free our little nation." He said pointing to Naruto who was rubbing the back of his head in embarrassment.

"So you, yet leading these ninja. Three of whom are probably twice your age." Tsunami pointed out.

"He may be young, but he's the most powerful one of us." Kurenei pointed out.

"No matter how powerful he is, he cannot defeat Gato." Inari ran out of the room crying, he stopped and looked at Naruto.

"You know kid, things don't get done around here when you cry." He started crying harder, and out side. Hinata smacked the back of his head. "What the hell."

"I'll go talk to him." Hinata said getting up from the table.

"Hand me the sake will ya'." Everyone at the table was giving him weird looks. "What, the way I figure it, old enough to kill, old enough to drink." At that everyone nodded. Naruto drank the whole bottle, and another. "Come on Kyubi-chan, why won't you let me get drunk." He thought out loud. Tazuna, and Tzunami looked at him funny, but when they noticed that no one else cared they shrugged it off.

Outside you see Hinata and Inari sitting side by side. "You know, you wouldn't be able to tell by looking at him now, but Naruto used cry himself to sleep. Everyone in our village hated him. He never knew his parents. He never had a family. But I've never once seen him cry, I think he just got tired of crying, relizing that it did nothing to feel bad for yourself. Sure some people are always going to hate him. But there are some people that love and respect him for what he went through. Now he's one of the most powerful ninja the Hidden Leaf has been home to."

"Really?" He asked her.

"Really." She replied. And with that the went inside. She sat next to Naruto, who had five bottles of sake in front of him. She grabbed his hand and plased it on her lap. He turned to her, and mouthed "Thank you." she winked at him. Inari went and sat back down with his mom. They ate the rest of the dinner in pease.

"You know, I may not be able to get drunk, but this sake is really good. Tazuna, you have good taste." Naruto commented. Shikamaru reached for the bottle, he took it away from him. "You can have a drink when you defeat me, on a battle of killer intent.

Shikamaru stood up, "Well you coming?" Everyone thought he was kidding around.

"Very well, I warn you, I scared Kyubi-chan with mine." The ninja in the room thought he was joking, and the civilians had no idea what they were talking about. "But to be fair, I'll let a clone do this battle." They walked outside, and Naruto made a clone. "This clone only has ten percent of my current power, with my power restraints on. So he has .1 percent of my true power. I won't use Kyubi-chan to help with this. You may do your worse now." They stood about ten feet from each other, just starring the other down. Then Shikamaru released his KI, it was enough to make the civilians lay down in a fetal position, and Hinata to step back, but neither Kurenei, Naruto, or his clone were fazed by it. Naruto's clone released his KI, it knocked the civilians unconscious, Hinata and Shikamaru crying, in a fetal position. Naruto was unfazed, Kurenei laying down. "I think I over did it. Sorry Shika, no sake for you. But you have potential using killer intent." He walked over, picked up Hinata, and told her that he was sorry. He turned to everyone and said, "when you are ready head inside and get to bed. And whatever you do, don't kill yourself. You will meet many other people that aren't so nice with KI, if I wanted I could release enough to make you kill yourself." He told everyone. "I'm going to meditate, no one is to interrupt me." He took Hinata into the room that he was told would be there's. He put Hinata down, and decided that before meditating he would go see Inari. He walked to the kids room and saw him looking over the ocean. "Hey, kid I'm sorry about what I said earlier, it's just that I don't want you to grow up to be like me." Inari looked at him confused, he was thinking "who wouldn't want to be like him, powerful, and a girlfriend?" He continued, "I was hated, and I hated, originally I trained so I could get revenge on everyone that hurt me. But then I found people that loved, and cared for me. I was loved, and I loved. Now I train to protect." And revenge. He thought to himself. "If you love something, protect it with those two arms, even if it means death." He held out a kunei to the kid, who stared up at him. He reluctantly took the sharp ninja tool. Naruto then left him to his thoughts. He walked to his room, noticed that Hinata was already asleep. He found a spot in the center of the room sat down and meditated.

He was in the meadow again. This time Kyubi was already awake. "Is this a social visit, or do you need something?" She asked the kid, the kid who she secretly had a crush on.

"Do I need an excuse to see my favorite fox?" he asked her. She smiled, it gad been awhile sense he visited her just to see her. "But one question first." he smile disappeared. "I have noticed that while in your fox form, you have been getting smaller. Along with me getting more of your chakra. I wanted to know if you were alright."

She stared at him, he was just a mortal, and he was worried about her. "I'll be honest with you Naruto." He noticed that she had used his name, she never used his name. "I don't know, all I know is that you are becoming the Nine Tailed Fox."

"What will happen to you?" He didn't want her to leave, sure she was a demon, but she was like a sister to him. She never left him.

"I think that I'll just turn into a minor demon. But if you use too much chakra, and use mine. It will speed up the process. At the rate it's going now, I have about nine years." He looked real sad. "But I will push myself to see you become Hokage."

He perked up at that, he walked over and hugged her. She was reluctant to accept the hug, but she put her arms around him. "I'll miss you."

"Me too. You'll be getting some fox features." He looked at her confused, but shrugged it off.

"Alright what do you want to do?" He wanted to make best of the time he had with her.

"How about a simple game of shogi?" She loved the game, but even with her age, she was no match for this kid. even when he was six he beat her.

It was about an hour before he left her, but because his mind worked much fast that the real world it felt a day.

It had been a week since they had arrived. Kakashi and Asuma were now awake, weak but awake. Naruto was implimenting his plan of action. He and Kakashi were guarding Tazuna, with the help of Naruto's shadow clones this would be the last day of building. Meaning that Gato would rush Haku, and Zabuza to kill them. With the loss of his arm, Naruto beleived that he was now an A rank ninja. Not bad, but still no match.

Today he had made the other teams join them. Hinata and Kurenei were talking over at the edge, where he stationed them. Asuma and Shikamaru were just laying down, watching the clouds. He and Kakashi were everywhere. Kakash had also made shadow clones, not near as many as Naruto, and stationed them on every corner. A mist started to roll in, before it could really do anything Naruto blew it away. If you listened closely you could hear a whisper of "damn gaki." Haku seemed to materialize in front of everyone. Naruto's first observation was that he had both arms, he thought to himself "damn, this won't be as easy as I though." He launched him self at Haku, as soon as he got within ten feet from him the S rank ninja disappeared. In place of him was twenty-one mirrors made of ice. Haku walked into one, and immediately disappeared, senbon were thrown everywhere. Naruto with both of his doujutsu activated saw exactly what happened. He saw no other way to melt the ice mirrors other that to use Amaterasu. He dropped the genjutsu he used on his eyes, he had already stopped every senbon, Haku's eyes widened when he realized what his opponent was about to do. With no warning at all, not even bleeding from his eye, black flames covered the ice mirrors. Haku jumped out, and before he even hit the ground he felt cold steel pierce his heart.

Kakashi was about to help Naruto, when Zabuza had jumped in his way. "Asuma, I'll need your help." Asuma jumped over. They attacked from opposite sides, Zabuza must have reforged his sword, he blocked every move they could make. Kakashi made the mistake of checking on Naruto, he saw that the boy was done with Haku, but as soon as he looked over it was too late the ronin was charging at him with full speed, he already had his sharingan activated, but Zabuza was already too close to dodge. He closed his eyes and waited for death to take him, it never happened. Haku who had managed to survive the blow the blond had tried to kill him with, had just stopped his blade before it hit Kakashi.

"Haku? Why?" Was all Zabuza spoke.

"These people never deserved this, I know I'm too soft, I wanted to save one person of the hundreds I've killed." Haku managed to spit out, before death obsorbed him.

"The boy wished you people to live, so it shall be." As he finished his sentence a short fat mat appeared.

"Gato, you are the only one that should have died in this battle. You will pay for the wrongs you have caused this village." And with that last word, all of the bandits dropped dead, and Gato was flying off of the bridge.

"Naruto?" Zabuza spoke, "you possess the rinnegan. I know of an ability that can revive anyone, but you need that ocular jutsu. Please tell me that you know it." Zabuza pleaded.

"Are you sure? I do know of the jutsu, but are you sure you want this?" He asked him.

"Yes, please save Haku, he is my only friend."

"Very well." He did a few hand signs, and a green senbon looking object pierced Haku. He jumped up.

"Zabuza, you are alive, and I am? How?" He looked at everyone. Naruto who still had his doujutsu acivated, rose his hand slowly. "Thank you."


I will let the poll go for another week, but I need more votes. And I don't think the ending was all that great, it was rushed.
