The Dragon in the Maelstrom

Chapter 25: Traitor.

Written by Jlargent.

Me: Well I'm back and with a new chapter like I promised, in my last chapter I actually had that threesome planned in my head for awhile. I have a new poll posted for my Breaking Fate's Curse story, so please vote on it if you're a fan of Blazblue. Now onto the disclaimers: I do not own ATLA or Naruto in any shape or form.

Azula's POV

Naruto is about to return home soon I thought to myself as I headed out for patrol, we're still searching for whoever killed Hayate with little to no clues and whoever killed him knew enough about first aid to bandage himself up good, we suspected that at one point that we might have a traitor amongst us but with lack of evidence we can only speculate at this point.

"So any luck on your end Azula?" Raido asks me as I check the school for any suspicious activity.

"Just that Mizuki has been acting twitchy lately. Normally I would put this off to the stress but I'm having my doubts." I said while looking at the current students that are being taught by the silver haired teacher as he scolds a student on his misbehavior.

Later that night…

I head out to one of the forest clearings to take a short break before continuing on with patrol, I unseal a bottle of water and take a drink from it before resealing it back into the scroll I was carrying and start thinking back to when I first arrived eight years ago and adopted my son Amazing how eight years can fly by without any notice I muse to myself while tree hoping and keeping my eyes out for trouble Speak of the devil I thought as I see a silver haired figure carrying a large scroll which I immediately identified as the forbidden scroll strapped to his back Kakashi you traitorous bastard! I knew I should have roasted your ass years ago I mentally growled as I picked up speed to catch up to Kakashi so I can kill a traitor to my adoptive home.

Kakashi is getting sloppy in his old age, the trail he's leaving is so obvious that an academy student could follow it I thought as I take a shortcut to head Kakashi off and I arrived at another clearing just as Kakashi arrives only to my surprise it wasn't Kakashi it was Mizuki.

"Mizuki you have had a real good reason to take the forbidden scroll." I said as Mizuki unsheathes one of his fuma shurikens.

Mizuki sneers at me "Well if it isn't the snake whore's mistress. Where's that demonic abomination you call a son?"

I narrow my eyes at him "It's none of your business, traitor. By order of the Hokage I am placing you under arrest for treason and theft of a village treasure." I said as Mizuki ignores me and starts spinning the oversized shuriken at high speeds making it sound like a buzz saw.

"Not if I kill you first bitch!" Mizuki yells and throws the shuriken at me and at the speeds it was heading towards me I knew that I would not be able to dodge, so on instinct I let loose a stream of concentrated blue fire at the weapon hoping to slow it down to the point where I can dodge it more easily. To our surprise the thrown weapon melted into a large puddle of molten steel, I quirked an eyebrow at the now sweating Mizuki as he nervously pulls out the second fuma shuriken that was strapped to his back and proceeds to rush at me and tries to bring the shuriken down upon me, in a split second I deflect the weapon with a kunai and follow up with a kick to his knees almost making him drop his weapon and finishing up with an elbow to the throat.

Mizuki drops the shuriken and drops to his knees clutching his throat in pain as I rush over to him and hold my kunai to the back of his neck "Give it up Mizuki. You're a lousy teacher and an even worse traitor, come along quietly or else I'll have to take you back with some vital equipment missing." I pull out a second kunai and aimed it at Mizuki's precious jewels just waiting to slice off at a moment's notice.

"Fuck you!" Mizuki rasps due to his vocal chords being damaged.

"No thank you. I'm already taken." I quipped pressing the kunai closer to his neck right at the position in the spine when severed would paralyze him from the neck down, all of a sudden Mizuki slams his elbow into me hard making me back away, he quickly takes advantage of this and picks up his shuriken and throws it at me, I duck underneath it and launch a fireball in his direction only for him to dodge it. Mizuki reaches into his pack and pulls out a vial.

"It looks like I have no choice. Lord Orochimaru shall reward me for bringing him the forbidden scroll and killing you so he can find out how your powers work." he said as he opens the vial and drink the contents from it, after drinking it he started to double over in pain, his body grew in muscle mass and eventually shreds his uniform top, his sandals strain from the changes but then they too explode, yellow and black striped fur sprouted from his skin and whiskers emerge, a matching tail snakes out from his pants. The changes continue until the man now looks like a half man/half tiger mutant.

The newly formed monster growled "What a rush! This power, almost intoxicating, I will use this power to become Lord Orochimaru's greatest ninja!" and with speed that belies his newly acquired bulk tries to slam a fist into me which I barely dodged only for his fist to collide into the tree behind me destroying it outright.

I gain a bit of distance away from Mizuki I guess that I have no choice but to try that move I thought remembering back to when I fired that lighting at that mugger that attacked Inari and since then I've been experimenting with that attack and discovered how powerful it was when I used on hand, I tried using both hands with moderate success. I gather lightning in both my palms and Mizuki turns to face me only to see me with lightning in both hands.

"Try this! LIGHTNING BEAM!" I declared as I place both palms on top of each other and shove outwards sending a devastating beam of energy right at Mizuki slamming into him with force, and for a moment I was blinded by the intensity of the light and smoke. After a few moments the smoke clears to the point where I can clearly see Mizuki and see that his right arm, leg and his lung was utterly destroyed, Mizuki wobbles for a moment before collapsing, I run to Mizuki's body to see that whatever he drank was wearing off as the muscles started to shrink until he resembled nothing more than a withered husk.

"Azula, what the hell happened here?" the familiar voice of Ibiki spoke as he and a group of ANBU appeared.

"I caught Mizuki trying to steal the forbidden scroll and admitted conspiring with Orochimaru before taking a drug that altered his body to the point where it acted like a poison. Before that I had to incapacitate him, the poison then deteriorated his body." I explained as they placed Mizuki's body in a body bag, Ibiki nodded at the explanation.

"Very well. I expect a full report in the morning." Ibiki said as he and the ANBU vanish taking Mizuki's corpse with them.

"You can come out now Kakashi. I know you're there." I said to the darkness as the lazy, perverted pedophile appeared.

"Sorry I'm late. I had some last minute reports to finish up when I heard the alarm." Kakashi spoke lazily as I narrow my eyes at him.

"Yeah right, more like still being the Uchiha's little fuck toy. I know that you're training the little shit you're personal technique and I swear to all that's holy that if he ever uses it against Naruto I will roast your sorry ass and burn your skin off and toss your sorry ass into a vat of saltwater and leave you in there for a week straight." I vowed as I too vanish from the clearing.

To be continued.

Me: To be honest when I started this fic I did forget about Mizuki so I decided to take care of that. Next time: The Finals begin. Please keep the reviews coming!

As always Hoody Hoo!
