Hey guys.

A lot of people for all my stories say I should make my writing longer. But I sorry that probably won't happen. I'm not that old. To me writing a 2 page essay is a lot, so 1k words of typing is a lot for me.

Anyway remember, REVIEW AND COMMENT!

Darkflash-

Tazuna was called into the room. "These are the ninja hired to protect me. A bunch of snot nose brats."

"Bark! Bark!" "Yea Akamaru's right, we are not brats. We are ninja."

"Troublesome," Shikamaru sighed

"…" Naruto remained silent. He closed his eyes. 'An annoying client huh… Shika's right troublesome.'

"Look this blonde one can't even talk. Yo, kid are you even a ninja? Can - you - under - stand - me?"

Naruto glared at him and released some of killing intent.

"Sir please, this mission won't require more than three genin and I'm a jonin so if anything gets out of hand I can handle it." Kurenai said

Tazuna stared at her. He was drunk. 'Man she is hot.' "Fine they'll do. Just make sure I don't die."

At the gate-

"Alright team, let's move out." Kurenai said

They head out. The team walked in silence for awhile until Kurenai glanced down to see a puddle. 'Strange…it hasn't rained for weeks yet there is a puddle…must be a genjutsu. I guess I'll wait to see who the people are targeting.' Kurenai thought.

It wasn't long until two people rose from the puddle, revealing the Demon Brothers of the mist.

Even faster than Kurenai, Naruto reacted. He leapt out, pulling out a sword. Pain. It clashed with one of the demon brother's gauntlet. It easily broke it because it was made of demon metal slicing open his hand. The brother ( 1 ) cried out in pain. Then, he swiftly used his face as a boost and jump toward the other demon brother ( 2 ). He didn't waste any time. He slit his throat, killing him instantly.

Shikamaru, Kiba, and Tazuna's eyes widened seeing Naruto kill so easily and without a second thought.

Kurenai moved in and tied up the demon brother that was still alive. Then she applied a gen jutsu to question him and get answers. She asked him, "Why did you attack us?"

The demon brother's eyes widened and his pupils shrunk. "We were hired to kill the bridge builder."

"Who hired you?" Kurenai asked

"Gato." He replied

Kurenai knocked him out and turned around to question Tazuna. "You knew this mission was more than a C rank didn't you?"

"Yes." Tazuna said putting his head down

"We have full right to leave you here." Kurenai informed

"I know, but I had no choice. You see the wave country is poor and we could not afford more than a C rank mission." Tazuna said, "But I guess it cannot be helped. I guess by cute 7 year old grandson will cry and sob that I died. I guess my daughter will hate you leaf shinobi. And the people of the wave country will also hate you because without me building the bridge, Gato will take over the country."

'If keep going then the next time the enemy will definitely be a jonin.' Kurenai thought. "What do you guys think we should do?"

"I think we should do this cause I do not want to go back to catching that stupid cat." Kiba said and Akamaru barked in agreement.

"This is so troublesome, but if Kiba is right, if we go home now we will have to do some boring missions." Said the laziest genin in the Leaf village, not laziest ninja in the leaf, no laziest ninja ever, anywhere.

"I think we should do it. It is definitely better than those D rank missions. We will just have to be serious." Naruto said

"Serious, you kill that guy." Kiba shouted

"Ya, Naruto are you alright? Killing can causes physiological problems and could hurt you mentally." Kurenai said worried

"I'm fine. I'm used to it now." Naruto said causing Shikamaru to straighten up in surprise and Kiba to cringe in shock.

"Alright let's go. We should start moving. But first I am going to send a request to lord hokage for back up." Kurenai said. She wrote in a scroll and summoned a messenger bird to carry the scroll to the hokage. Then they started moving.

Later-

"This is as far as I can take you." The boatman hissed, he had taken them across the water and into Wave country, a quick journey of about two hours.

"Thanks." Tazuna said, but the man was already turning around in his small boat, heading back into the fog. Team 8 took a second to admire the giant bridge that looked only half complete.

"Now, take me to my home!" Tazuna commanded, and Kurenai rolled her eyes, 'Wasn't he just begging us not to ditch him a few hours ago? Now he is bossing us around. Stupid client.'

They started walking.

Kurenai stopped them and shouted, "EVERYONE GET DOWN!"

Naruto pushed down Tazuna and crouched and Shikamaru, Kiba, and their sensei dove down.

A giant sword flew out and hit a tree. A man that was dressed in blue camouflage pants and no shirt and had a hidden mist headband with a slash through it appeared on the large sword.

Naruto's eyes widened. He stood up, "Zabuza Momochi, A rank nuke nin from the hidden mist. The demon of the mist."

Zabuza laughed, "So you heard about me kid."

"No, you're not that famous. I just read about you in the bingo book." Naruto said

If Zabuza had any eyebrows then they would have twitched. "NOT FAMOUS ENOUGH! I killed hundreds of people before I was a genin. I am known worldwide as the bloody demon of the mist. And I'm not famous enough for you. Oh… I'm going to make sure you remember me. I am going to kill you in such a painful way."

The fight began-
