The contract reborn: August 7
"Fuck, I'm going to kill that asshole reaper." This was the colourful thought of the now re-born August 7, the former Contractor for the UK codenamed the 'magician'.
He had died at the hands of the aptly named Black reaper, a Contractor with the ability to- on a base level- manipulate electricity, the Reaper hadn't given him any time to pull off some of his more powerful attacks, if he did then there would be little left of the insufferable Contractor.
Ironically enough, his death coincided with the application of the Gogyo fuin to the stomach of one Naruto Uzumaki, who was at that moment waking up in the body of a Contractor who had control of kinetic energy thoroughly confused.
Groaning Naruto opened his eyes (I'm referring to August 7 as Naruto because it makes more sense when trying to get a mental image and August 7 I awkward to type for Me.) he felt like he had been hit with a bolt of lighting, which really isn't that far off in retrospect.
He was lying on hard ground staring up at a rocky ceiling, it came back in flash, the fight with Orochimaru, the man had bitten Sasuke and placed some sort of seal on his stomach, most likely to block off the Kyuubi.
He frowned at that thought; the Kyuubi followed Naruto's soul into the body of the other contractor, mainly because the dead demon consuming seal was a soul linked seal meaning it was attached to his very soul.
His frown deepened as he contemplated what to do with his second chance, he was in a world completely unlike his own, but he still had his contract though for some bizarre reason, he could pick up the unique flavour of his own energy mixing with the chakra inside of him.
He was quitting being a Shinobi, there was no way in hell that he was going to be a paid killer again, he had done enough of that shit working for the British embassy, and he refused to work with Sasuke, he reminded him way too much of November 11, both of them cocky bastards.
So all he had to do was survive this and he was home free right.
"Zankuuha."
Gale force wind washed over him throwing small twigs and leaves into his face causing an annoyed grimace to grow.
Standing slowly he glared at the mouth of the cave in anger and began to walk towards it in calm measured- really pissed off- steps.
He arrived at the mouth of the cave to see a dark haired girl holding onto Sakura's hair and two boys staring at him one with holes in hi arm, the wind in front of him was only just dying down from the blasts emitted from his palms.
Grinning Naruto cocked his head and hummed in thought, a blue glow blossomed across his outline and twin dots of crimson winked into his pupils, the enemy team froze as a wave of killing intent slammed into them and a demented chuckling filled the air.
SNAP.
CRASH.
Naruto had clicked his fingers, the red light had vanished from his eyes, the blue aura faded from his body and a grand piano had dropped onto the head of the lead enemy Genin and killed him instantly, the twisted chuckling and killing intent had not faded and the remaining enemy Genin had collapsed to their knees tears streaming down their faces.
"Hmm, one more and then I have to remunerate, how irritating, oh well lets get this over with then."
The blue aura once again covered his form as Naruto reached into the pocket of his orange jacket and began to pull, with nary a sound a metal handle emerged from the pocket followed by a wooden shaft and ending with a massive spiked metal ball.
"Hah, splat goes the weasel."
Those were the last words heard by the remaining male member of the sound team, Naruto turned to the girl and said in a bored tone.
"You, bugger off, leave your scroll and get away from here, I can't be bothered to kill you right now."
The girl shakily nodded and dropped the scroll before running off into the woods not looking back, Naruto turned back around and clapped his hands together, he noticed that Sakura was out cold from his killing intent and seeing the grisly sight of a mace buried into the top half of the unfortunate Genin's skull.
Sasuke was still unconscious, sighing in irritation Naruto formed two kage bunshin and had them pick up his two, soon to be former, teammates.

"… so does anyone wish to drop out of the preliminaries now."
"Yup, me." All eyes swivelled to the bored looking blonde and the Hokage simply stared at him in shock, said blond simply frowned and said.
"What, I've realised, I'm not cut out to be a ninja, this is the end of the road for me, no more preliminaries, and no more exams, after this is over I'm gone; I'll hit the highway."
The entire room was silent as all of the rookies looked at Naruto in absolute and utter shock, this was the kid who never backed down and who never gave up and he was quitting being the one thing that he had a reasonable chance at in life.
The group watched him lazily stroll away in silence until Hayate coughed and began to announce the preliminary matches.

"You wanted to see Jiji?"
Naruto's cheerful tones brought the aged Sandaime out of his grim thoughts and he turned to smile at the blonde demon container.
"Yes Naruto, what you said down there, do you really intend to quit being a Shinobi for good."
Naruto sighed and nodded towards the Hokage confirming his fears, he laced his fingers and cleared his throat loudly, the door to the Hokages office opened and revealed three people, a tall red headed woman in the middle with a young red headed girl on her left and a boy with brilliant blonde hair and golden eyes on her right.
"Naruto, this is your mother and siblings."
The office grew colder as Naruto cocked his head at the three newcomers and hummed in thought.
"No their not."
The woman looked at Naruto with hurt eyes, he just stared at her with his head cocked and said in a completely neutral voice.
"A parent would be there when I 'accidentally' fell down the stairs of the orphanage, a parent would be there when a dose of rat poison 'accidently' fell into my food, a parent would be there when I came home bleeding and barely conscious because my teacher for taijutsu had 'accidently' forgotten to put his weights on and beaten seven kinds of shit out of me, they, are no relatives of mine, I, am, an, orphan."
The Hokage watched with sad eyes as Naruto verbally ripped his mother to shreds without raising his voice or changing his tone from anything beyond a neurtal monotone.
