The group of five ninja stood overlooking a small bandit camp that the demon brothers had found a few miles away. "Are you sure about this Zabuza?" asked Meizu looking around the camp.

"Yes I'm sure, it will be a good way to see how strong the gaki is. Plus it will give them both some experience at being a ninja. Are you sure that the missing nin in the camp is only a chunin?" Zabuza asked.

"Hai Zabuza. The missing nin is Hiro Asanuma, chunin from Iwagakure. His bounty is 500,000 ryo, wanted dead or alive, plus an extra 50,000 for each scroll recovered from him that he stole from the village. His skill is mid-chunin at best and he has the Yoton kekkei genkai." Explained Gozu.

"Alright, listen up you two, there are about thirty bandits and a chunin level missing nin in that camp. I want you two go in and take them out any way that you seem fit to do so. Just don't destroy the body of Hiro, we will need it to turn in for the bounty, well at least the head anyway. There have been rumors that he has been kidnapping young girls and women as well, if there are any here save them if possible. We will watch from here and move in if you need help." Zabuza explained looking at the two and getting nods from them both.

"Ototo, go ahead and use that jutsu. I want to watch with Zabuza just in case you two need help." Kurumi explained getting a slight nod from Naruto. Naruto made a series of hand signs that the other four didn't know. 'Kyuubi Bunshin' Naruto said after finishing his hand signs. A red chakra began to envelop Naruto, after a few seconds, the chakra moved away from Naruto and began to take the shape of a human body.

A young woman appeared before the group of ninja. She stood about 5'8, just a few inches shorter than Zabuza. She had a dark red kimono and blood red sandals. Her eyes were a bright crimson and glowed slightly. What surprised the ninja except for Naruto were the nine flowing tails behind the woman and the set of fox ears on her head. After focusing for a minute, the woman made her tails and ears disappear under a genjutsu.

"This is Kurumi-nee-chan, the nine tailed demon fox." Naruto said as he gave his sister a hug then pulled out an anbu mask that looked like a fox.

"I didn't know you could release the bijuu, Naruto. And what's with the mask?" Haku said looking at the woman.

"She isn't fully released. This is just a temporary body that she can use outside the seal, however she has about the same level of power as we do right now. She just wanted to be out just in case we needed with this camp. The mask is just so I don't draw attention to myself right now." Naruto explained as he started walking toward the camp with Haku following slightly behind putting on her own mask.

"Do you think the gaki can handle his first kill?" Zabuza asked watching the two genin walk off.

"This won't be his first kill. He has killed before and has come to terms that this is a kill or be killed world we live in." Kurumi explained.

Naruto and Haku were standing in a tree to the east of the camp scouting the place. Naruto noticed Haku was slightly shaking and decided to figure out what was wrong. "What's wrong Haku?"

"I have never killed someone before and I don't know if I can do it now. I don't want to turn into one of those monsters." Haku explained looking down.

"This is a kill or be killed world, we are ninja, and it's what we do. As long you don't take pleasure in killing and only kill for the right reasons you will be fine. I promise Haku-chan." Naruto said as he pulled the girl into a hug.

"T-thank y-you Naruto-kun." Haku stuttered out. She was glad she had her mask on to hide the blush on her face. As Naruto and Haku got ready to enter the camp, they looked back to see Zabuza, Kurumi, and the demon brothers moving closer to watch their progress and ready to help if need be. Getting a nod from Zabuza, Haku and Naruto disappeared in a snow and leaf shunshin.

(With Haku)

Haku appeared near the south of the camp in a tree. She saw two bandits walking around doing what she assumed was a patrol of the area. She watched them for a few moments until they made their way behind one of the tents out of view from the others. She made a small ball of ice and threw it toward the two bandits, it landed behind them without a sound and grew into an ice mirror. She then dropped another one right below her making another ice mirror. She then jumped down and moved through the mirror below her and shot out of the other with senbon at the ready.

She stuck the senbon into the back of the two bandit's necks and they fell to the ground dead. Haku had to fight down the urge to throw up when she saw the blood from the bandits on her hands. After a few seconds of calming herself, she continued on toward the tent at the middle of camp. As she snuck through the camp, she came to a larger tent, peeking through the flap she saw five bandits sitting at different tables in the tent.

She made a few hand signs before placing her hand on the ground, "Hyoton: chaining ice spears." Where she touched the ground, a small patch of ice appeared and flowed toward the nearest bandit, when the ice touched him it quickly froze him from the inside out. A spear of ice then shot out from his body connecting with the next bandit and continuing until each bandit was dead.

She stepped back out of the tent and continued on her way silently killing each bandit she came across.

(With Naruto)

When Naruto reappeared, he was standing near the northern part of the camp site. He unsealed two kunai from a seal on his wrist and made his way silently and quickly toward the camp. The first bandit he came to was a sleep against a tree near the outside edge of camp. Naruto quickly slit his throat making sure no one was alerted before moving on.

Naruto continued on and found a group of three bandits standing guard outside a tent. He went through a few hand signs that he learned after watching Kakashi perform the jutsu. "Earth style: head hunter jutsu." Naruto sunk into the ground and appeared with his upper body sticking out of the ground behind the bandits. He grabbed two by the ankles and pulled them under the ground.

The third noticed his two companions disappear and turned around. "What the he-" was all he got out before he too was pulled into the earth being buried alive with the other two. Naruto stepped out of the earth and stepped inside the tent to avoid being seen. When he turned around, he saw a bunch of cages with half naked women who looked scared and were staring at the middle of the tent. Naruto followed their gaze and saw two men and a woman. One man was watching as the other stood over the woman undoing his pants.

Naruto unsealed Aki no Shi and unsheathed the blade. With a quick swipe of the blade, the head of the man that was watching was removed from his body. Naruto caught the head and the body and laid them down so he wouldn't alert the other man. The women in the cages saw Naruto and started to scream for help when Naruto motioned for them to stay quite. Naruto stood and quietly snuck up behind the last man.

Naruto flipped the blade over in his hand and slid it between the man's legs. "Burn in hell you bastard." Naruto said before he brought the blade up slicing the man in half. After flicking the blood off the blade and re-sealing it, he turned to the women.

"I will be back to free you all as soon as I take care of the others." He said before making a shadow clone. "Stay here and protect them from anyone that might come here." The clone nodded and Naruto made his way out of the tent.

Naruto and Haku met up at the large tent in the middle of the camp site after finishing off the remainder of the bandits. They walked to the entrance of the tent and nodded to each other before stepping into it. In the middle of the tent sat Hiro Asanuma on a throne looking seat with a couple of women off to the side. Hiro looked up and saw the two ninja and grew a light smirk on his face.

"You can come with voluntarily or we can force you to come with us." Naruto said.

"I'm afraid I won't be going anywhere. I have more than enough bandits to handle two ninja." Replied Hiro with a small chuckle.

"You mean the ones lying dead around your camp?" Haku asked causing Hiro's smirk to disappear.

"Well, that won't be a problem at all. I need a new toy around here as all my other ones are starting to bore me. How about the girl stays and I will let you leave without any problems." Hiro said causing Haku to step back slightly and Naruto to let out a growl.

-XXX-

Outside the tent, Kurumi, Zabuza, and the demon brothers were listening just in case they were needed. When Zabuza heard what he said about Haku, Kurumi had to hold him back from busting through the tent. "Let go of me, I'm gonna teach this guy a lesson." Zabuza growled out.

"Naruto can handle this. Trust me, this guy is as good as dead." Kurumi replied in a calm voice.

"And why's that?" Zabuza asked.

"Back in Konoha there was a father and daughter duo that ran a little ramen stand. Naruto was really close to them both and considered them family. The girl was walking home one night and was attacked by a couple of drunk men. She tried fighting them off but they were a lot stronger than she was. When Naruto was walking hime he heard her screaming and he immediately rushed off to see what was going on. He saw the two guys trying to have their way with his older sister figure, he let his demonic instinct take over and ended both of their lives. That was his first kill I mentioned earlier. Rapist are one of the things Naruto despises in this world." Kurumi explained. Zabuza calmed down slightly but was still ready to bust through the tent.

-XXX-

Naruto and Haku stood staring down Hiro. After he offer was declined by the two genin, he had decided to beat Naruto and take Haku by force. This however didn't go over well with Naruto. Hiro took a step toward Naruto and Haku causing them both to get into a defensive stance. In a burst of speed that neither of them were expecting, Hiro punched Naruto in the face and kicked Haku in the gut sending them flying out of the tent. Zabuza, Kurumi, and the demon brothers backed up to where they wouldn't be seen but close enough to keep an eye on the fight.

Hiro rushed the two again but had to jump back to avoid the senbon made of ice and crystal. "Ahhh Hyoton and Shoton, haven't seen those bloodlines around in a while. This will be fun."

Haku rushed forward with a kunai as Naruto made a set of hand signs. Hiro met Haku half way and their kunai clashed as the two ninja tried to gain the upper hand. Hiro was bigger and stronger than Haku and soon overpowered Haku as he punched her in the side of the face knocking her away. As Haku was sent flying, he threw a few senbon and managed to land a few of them in his left arm.

Naruto had finished his hand signs just as Haku was knocked away. "Lightning style: wolf fang bullet." Naruto shouted as launched a ball of lightning from his hand that took shape of a wolf's head. The attack flew straight toward Hiro who tried to dodge but just hit in the leg by the attack leaving some nasty burns on his leg. Naruto quickly made three seal less shadow clones who surrounded Hiro along with the original Naruto.

"You really think a few clones are going to do anything?" Hiro asked breathing hard from the pain of the burns.

"Maybe if these were regular clones but these are shadow clones. A lot more fun to use then regular clones." Naruto said as one of the clones rushed Hiro. As the clone got close enough, he ducked under a punch and kicked Hiro in the side while shouting "NA" Hiro was sent flying toward another clone who jumped in the air and delivered a spinning kick to Hiro's head, "RU" Hiro was then sent flying toward the final clone who delivered a strong kick to Hiro's chin sending him straight into the air "TO"

The real Naruto jumped in the air above Hiro and delivered a powerful axe kick to the top of Hiro's head sending him rocketing straight into the ground. "Uzumaki Barrage." Naruto landed back on the ground next to Haku looking over the downed body of Hiro who slowly started to rise. Naruto looked to Haku and nodded as Haku began going through a set of hand signs.

"Hyoton: a thousand needles of death." Haku stomped one foot on the ground as ice shot out from beneath her foot freezing Hiro in place. The water in the air began to freeze as ice needles started appearing in the air. Haku brought her hand down and the ice needles flew straight for Hiro impacting all over his body as he fell to the ground dead.

The other four ninja appeared just as Naruto finished sealing the body into a scroll and tossing it to Zabuza who handed it to Meizu. "Take that and claim the bounty, then head to Uzu, we'll meet you there." Zabuza said before turning to the two genin. "Good work you two, very well done. Let's go ahead and head on to Uzu."

"Not yet Zabuza-sensei, Hiro had some women caged up in that tent there and I promised them I would save them. We need to get them back to their home town." Naruto said getting nods from the remaining three ninja. After the ninja got the girls back home, Kurumi returned to the seal and they all headed towards Uzu.


There you go, chapter three done. Sorry bout the late update, had a few things come up that had to be taken care of and didn't have time to write. Next chapter will probably be a bit longer due to having a few ideas that spiritwolf35 helped me come up with. So thanks to him (or her).

Also, I know the fight wasn't very long and that is just because I don't want to reveal too much too early.

Anyways leave me a review and let me know what you think.
