KG: No, no I didn't take out the Coco Puff bird. (Sigh) I'm so bored. I don't have my Tv show and my wedding is delayed. Yep, everything is just fuckin' peachy isn't it?

Naruto: Hmm got me I guess. Though you should just request a new one.

KG: Like what? I was about to have fun with that other one, but I guess not. What am I supposed to do now?

Samui: Type the story?

KG: Oh yeah, I mean why else are people here. Who actually reads these AN's? I mean come on.

Ayane: Would you stop depressing yourself like an idiot?

KG: Hmph yeah, whatever. It's not like you three can talk. You all have powers. You fight everyday and get to do things that nearly every human in the world wants to do.

Naruto: Yeah, we're awesome like that.

KG: Ugh whatever.

(Phone rings)

KG: Hello?...What? Do I want a new Tv show? Umm sure, uh-huh...uh-huh. Umm alright then. I don't mind. Yes, yes. Alright then.

Naruto: Something good.

KG: Hell if I know. Now then why should it just be something like that. I don't know. Maybe it's just my way of thinking that wishes I could understand, but I don't seem to think of it that way.

Ayane: Right, so what show is this anyway?

KG: I don't know. They said that they would tell me later at the set. We air tonight or something like that.

Samui: Well you'd better get started them.

KG: (Sigh) Yeah, fine. I'll be going then.


Ryu and Ayane watched in slight humor from where they were sitting to see Naruto shivering. His body was plastered to the bed across from Ryu while he looked out the window of the airship.

"W-We're off the ground. Oh my Kami. This is amazing," Naruto said making the male and female ninja glance at each other. It seemed that Naruto's fascination was betraying his body as they knew he was excited, but also incredibly nervous. How could he not be? He's never flying before in his life. It was really amazing.

"Naruto-san, please calm down. It seems that a storm is approaching and you should stay clear of the window," Ryu said while Naruto nodded his head. He sighed and merely walked back to the beds and rummaged through his backpack. Ayane and Ryu watched him for a bit and felt a bit curious when Naruto pulled out a scroll from his pouch and opened it. Ryu was right, it was best for him to get his mind off the terrifying flight and just go over some things.

"Let's see. There are still genjutsu techniques in this scroll I haven't mastered or even done so I guess I'll try them. I only have one A-rank genjutsu. Hmm, maybe I should try another one. Then, there is the thing that I sent the others. Not to mention that Murai guy," Naruto said in his mind before the sounds of the excitement of a thinking things over drowned out the sounds of the storm.

He closed his eyes for a bit before taking out another book. It was a book that Jiraiya gave him to study after the chunin exams. It was a book for Fuin jutsu seals. Naruto had naturally always worked on his seal making, but he was nowhere near his father's level or even the old pervert's level.

"Hmm what's this?" Naruto said to himself looking at a page that described the aspects of something called 'Gravity seals'. It interested Naruto a great deal and he decided to read through it before he heard the sounds of high heels hitting the floor. He looked up to see Ayane walking over to him, but he tried to ignore it. She sat down and looked over his shoulder.

"Gravity seals? What are those supposed to be?" Ayane wondered to herself, but she didn't ask. She merely settled for reading while she unconsciously laid her head on Naruto's shoulder. She seemed to be too into the reading of the book to really care, but Naruto was a different story. The blonde stiffened to her presence as he wondered where this action had come from, but he certainly didn't mind. After all, Ayane smelt really nice.

Unknown to the two, Ryu watched them from the corner of his eyes while he leaned on a bed as well. He had different thoughts going through his head. He had to find the Dark Dragon Blade. It wouldn't be good if it got into the wrong hands. Well it already was in the wrong hands, but if the seal was destroyed then it just wouldn't do him any good. He just hoped that neither Naruto nor Ayane would have to do something that he would regret them doing. However, he couldn't think that for long before alarms started to flare and noise. Naruto and Ayane jerked up while Ryu narrowed his eyes.

"Enemies in sight. Engage hostile. Please remain in your cabins, I repeat please remain in your cabins," a voice over the loudspeaker said while Naruto got to his feet. He narrowed his eyes while glancing at Ryu. The Dragon Ninja nodded his head confirming Naruto's fears which then made the blonde grumble. Ayane had told him of the Vigoor Military and it seemed that Naruto was about to see them for the first time.

"Great, just what we need right now. Nothing's ever easy," Naruto said while Ayane folded her arms.

"It is our life," she said and Naruto knew full well that he couldn't refute that as he lived this life and it wouldn't be any different.

With Temari, Kankuro and Gaara

The three Suna siblings were currently lined up along with all the other genin, chunin and jonin in a large room before the council. Said council glared hard before one person slammed the desks.

"So it's true. Maki has left the village," he said assessing everything that everyone told him while people nodded their heads. Gaara and his siblings looked from each other, but didn't say anything.

"I don't get it, why would she leave? She was well on her way to being a chunin," a jonin said in some sorrow holding the headband that Temari had given him from Maki. She sighed before someone looked at her specifically.

"Someone told me that Maki said she was going to meet with you Gaara. Can you or your siblings vouch for anything?" another man said while Gaara felt people's eyes on him. He grumbled while trying to remain as emotionless as he could.

"Well sir, we did see her and she seemed to be...confused about somethings or at least she was unhappy looking. We tried to cheer her up, but it seems that she was still sad about Pakura-san's death," Kankuro explained and he noticed more than a good percent of the shinobi in the room stiffen to his words. Temari inwardly grinned when she saw some of the council sweat. It seemed that being a part of this spy network then they got to notice some different things. Like how those damn power hungry people truly acted.

"I see, well nonetheless she is still considered a missing nin and will be classified as such. You are all dismissed," the council said and people began to file out of the room.

Gaara, Temari and Kankuro hit the streets while Kankuro sighed.

"Man, who knew that they would make such a big deal about Maki. I still can't help, but feel a little guilty," Kankuro said while Temari nodded. That's how she was feeling the first few days, but she then got over it rather easily once reality slapped her in the face.

"Don't worry about it Kankuro, but for right now we've got to go and inform both Pakura and Maki about what just happened. By the way, did we receive Naruto's letter from those snakes last night?" Temari asked while Kankuro nodded.

"Yeah, it was a message to all of us. I think he wants us to go and keep our eyes on the council. Hey Gaara, what do you think we should do?" Kankuro asked and Gaara stopped walking. He placed his hands to his sides and closed his eyes before turning around.

"It's simple. We will follow his orders and look out for the others as always. Let's head home and then we'll go to Baki. We have a mission with him soon," Gaara said while his siblings agreed before walking off.

With Pakura and Maki

The two kunoichi were currently training somewhere in the woods. Pakura shot three fireballs at Maki before her student pulled out a cloth and blocked the attack. Maki jumped into the air and sent a high section kick to Pakura's neck, but she failed to take in her sensei's height before she was sent skidding across the ground while rubbing the blood from her mouth.

"I think we can stop there," Pakura said while Maki narrowed her eyes. She shook her head before pointing at Pakura's torso.

"Not yet," she said and Pakura looked down only to see an explosion tag on her body. Said woman widened her eyes before she covered her body as an explosion came across the entire field. Maki covered her eyes and grinned before she felt the cold steel of a kunai to her throat.

"That was deceptive, underhanded and downright cold Maki. Very good," Pakura said drawing her kunai away while Maki chuckled. Pakura sighed and leaned against a tree while Maki did the same.

"We're supposed to be looking at Oto, Kusa and Taki right?" Maki asked while Pakura nodded her head. She took out a map and straightened up. She looked through it and saw that they were just at the border or Kusa. Just a few more hours and they would be in Kusagakure. They had gotten their letter from Naruto that night telling them to head there for something that was said to be going on. They weren't sure what, but they would do it anyway.

"Pakura-sensei, what do you think Naruto-san is doing right now?" Maki asked while Pakura shrugged her shoulders. She leaned her head against the trees while taking in the warmth of the sun in the sky. Her first impression on the blonde chunin was that he was too young to be even trying to maintain a spy network. She could tell that while he had a bit of a goofy smile to his face, there was still a maturity that was well beyond his years as a ninja. Something that just exuded trust from his body.

"I don't know Maki, but I know we're going to have to get you some new clothes now in the next town. Pakura said while Maki nodded her head. The two females got to their feet and began to walk away.

With Kin and Tayuya

The two kunoichi hid amongst the trees in the fog of Kiri while they watched people pass. They both let go of the breath that they were suppressing before both dropped to the ground. They had easily taken off their headbands and walked towards Kiri.

"License and registration," someone said and both girls noticed that it was a gate guard for the place. Kin glanced towards to Tayuya and motioned for her to go on. Said redhead sighed and shook her head, but walked forward.

"Umm we're...civilians. What's the procedure for civilians?" Tayuya asked while the person looked at her. She could already tell that this person was around her age. He wore some glasses with camouflage light blue pants and a dark blue shirt. She wasn't sure, but she could also see some sort of sword on his back.

"Oh civilians huh? Well then, please wait right there. We will have to search you and we see nothing none threatening without reason then we will let you pass," he said making Tayuya nod. The two girls stood to their sides while another woman obviously older than the boy next to her. She had long flowing blonde hair going down her body. She wore her jonin Kiri flak jacket before giving a warm smile.

"Alright then. Let's search you," she said while another female checked Kin. It actually took a little bit of time seeing as how both women were shinobi after all so they found shinobi supplies, but Tayuya and Kin explained that they had been passing through a dangerous territory and wanted to feel better with protection to which the inspectors could understand. They then noticed the headbands from Oto and tensed. Both Tayuya and Kin cursed before Kin spoke.

"They are from two dead shinobi who tried to attack us down the road from Wave country. Tayuya I told you collecting headbands was stupid," Kin said while Tayuya gawked at her friends. Kin snickered while Tayuya grumbled. The blonde woman looked from Kin to Tayuya and saw the two separate reactions before snickering herself. Ig only he didn't leave then she might've gotten him to liven up a bit as well. She soon sighed and stood up.

"Alright then, everything seems to check out. Please enjoy your stay in Kirigakure," she said while Kin and Tayuya nodded their heads. They both walked off before Kin turned around.

"Oh, umm mind telling me your names? Just in case we ever meet again," Kin said while Tayuya narrowed her eyes. What was Kin getting at? She did remember that they had work to do didn't she?

"Oh well my name is Suiren and this is my partner Chojuro," she said identifying herself and her associate to which Chojuro bowed his head. Kin and Tayuya raised their eyebrows, but nodded and quickly left with Suiren smiling.

"They seem nice," she said, but Chojuro only nodded his head and said nothing else. She shook her head at him and his timid nature. She'd really have to do something about that one of these days.

"I-I guess so," he said while Suiren chuckled before sitting back down.

Meanwhile, Kin and Tayuya breathed sighs of relief before stopping. They looked to see many people conversing before Tayuya tapped Kin on the shoulder.

"Now then, mind telling me where in this fuckin' place we're going to stay?" Tayuya asked while Kin rubbed the back of her head. Yeah, she hadn't thought of anything like that just yet. Besides, they had to see the Mizukage first.

Back in Konoha

"That's why I want to take Naruto with me to go and find Tsunade. She's close this time. I can feel it," Jiraiya said while Sarutobi closed his eyes. Joe and Shiden had gone to their places of rest for most of the day while Kureha decided to go and 'hang out' with some of the women she had been introduced to like Kurenai, Hana, Anko, Yugao and Kyoko with the last of them deciding for them to go and train while Kureha showed them how to cast spiritual ninpo and they taught her how to use chakra.

"Yes, well I'm sorry to say this Jiraiya, but Naruto-kun is gone and I'm not sure when he will return. I had asked for Samui to explain the situation to Sasuke and Shikamaru. He has gone to assist our new allies and their villages," Sarutobi said while Jiraiya grumbled.

"Man, what a time to be late," Jiraiya said while Sarutobi patted him on the shoulder while standing to his feet.

"Don't worry, I'm sure that Tsunade will come around. I think it's time she learned that she still had some other family alive even if she doesn't realize it now. Or maybe she does and just won't say anything," Sarutobi said while Jiraiya sighed. He knew about that and just didn't say anything to that.

"I suppose you're right. I just hope that the brat doesn't get himself in trouble, but tell me why didn't you send him some back-up? He can't possibly handle an A-rank mission himself," Jiraiya said while Sarutobi chuckled lightly.

"Two reasons, one is because it was late and I didn't have a good time to make a complete decision. A part of the first reason also is because I know he already knows powerful people over there so I didn't think there was much of a point. Second reason is because Shiden-dono and Joe-dono think highly of him. That is probably it," Sarutobi answered while Jiraiya nodded. He could see some of the logic, but not all of it.

"Be alright brat. I'm not facing your mother for this," Jiraiya said knowing full well the horror of women who lost their sons, adopted or otherwise.

With Naruto

"Ayane, stay here. If they find you then it won't be pretty. Naruto and I will go and take care of everything," Ryu ordered and Ayane bowed showing her acceptance although internally she was dead worried for Naruto's sake. The blonde smiled and gave her a thumbs up.

"I'll see you soon Ayane-chan," Naruto said before Ayane felt her heart skip a beat. She snorted and sat on the bed before Naruto and Ryu ran out the door. Immediately the sight made Naruto angry as they came into the hallway of the airship and both noticed a few bodies on the ground.

"Who did this?" Naruto wondered, but didn't ask before he and Ryu ran through the corridor. Immediately they heard the glass crash as countless people came through them. People Naruto had never seen before. He raised an eyebrow at their choice of attire. Attire that he had never seen before. They wore helmets and dark material like Ryu's armor, but they also wore holsters with strange devices strapped to them.

The men said nothing to the Dragon ninja and Kyuubi jinchuuriki as they quickly came up. They took out their weapons while Ryu glared.

"Naruto, listen to me right now. Whatever you do, don't get hit by those weapons. No matter what or your life will be gone before you know it," Ryu said while Naruto glared. He looked at the strange way the man held the gun in his hands. His hand on some kind of trigger while there was a small hole in the opening of it.

"Ryu, what is it?" Naruto asked and this was what Ryu was afraid of, Naruto's lack of knowledge about this world. It was too different for him and his world that he wouldn't know what was dangerous and what wasn't.

"It's called a gun Naruto and just like a kunai, it really will kill you if it hits the right spot," Ryu said while Naruto narrowed his eyes. He took that to heart immediately. So needless to say, but he was more than ready.

The Vigoor swat team charged at Naruto and Ryu. The Dragon Ninja took his Dragon Sword into his while Naruto crossed his fingers.

"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu," Naruto shouted as he quickly summoned three clones. Each one ran to the soldiers and slammed into their bodies before they twirled out of the way. Naruto planted his foot into one person's backside sending him into the wall while Ryu killed the other. It wasn't anything new to Naruto. It had to be done. As a ninja, he was a killer and so was Ryu. It didn't take long before one pointed his gun at Naruto. He pulled the trigger and the first sound of guns came into Naruto's ears before he instinctively jumped out of the way and into the air. He saw as a tiny piece of metal passed him and slammed into the wall behind him.

"Whoa," was all Naruto could say before he reached into his pouch and took out a kunai. He threw it at the person who shot the gun and watched as he dropped to the floor in pain from the kunai. Naruto then used the opportunity to take his kodachi and quickly slitted the man's throat watching him fall. Naruto merely hardened his emotions before he saw something that he wasn't sure he saw right. Ryu jumped into the air and with a powerful thrust of his hips, and leg muscles, he...flew towards one of his opponents with his weapon in hand and cleanly slashed his head off as Naruto watched the body drop to the floor.

"What was that?" Naruto asked while Ryu landed on the ground. He turned around to see Naruto's look of complete amazement and couldn't resist the urge to crack a smile under his mask. Leave it to Naruto to be surprised.

"It is a technique known as the Flying Swallow," Ryu said. Unfortunately for Naruto he didn't have the time to explain it further before he ran forward. Meanwhile, Naruto turned around and narrowed his eyes.

"Where are you going?" Ryu asked while Naruto checked the other rooms across the floor that they were at. He saw no one in their rooms, but he noticed something on a table and took it in his hands. A small glass bottle with red liquid inside.

"Ne Ryu, what's this thing?" Naruto asked and Ryu walked up to him. He looked it over and snorted.

"It's what's known as a Devil Elixir. You drink it and it refills your energy or chakra as you go by. Very useful in long drawn-out fights," Ryu said and Naruto instantly pocketed the tool away for another time before kneeling down. He picked up something that was glowing and brought it up.

"And this?" he asked while Ryu sighed. They really didn't have the time for this. He looked at it and then turned back around to the door.

"It's what's known as a golden scarab. Also quite rare. I'm sure Muramasa might collect such things. I hear that there are only twenty of them in japan, but no one really knows," Ryu said while Naruto grinned. Hmmm so he could trade these? He might just do that for later.

"Alright then, come on let's get going," Naruto said and Ryu nodded. The two ran through the halls and Naruto headed for a door. He touched the door knob and grunted, but the door didn't budge.

"Dammit, why is it locked?" Naruto asked while Ryu shook his head.

"We need a key," Ryu said before he searched one of the bodies. He found said key and placed it in the lock while Naruto kicked the door down. The two quickly ran through the airship only to encounter more soldiers. Naruto cursed before he stood in front of Ryu.

"Follow my lead," Naruto said and Ryu nodded his head while Naruto weaved different handsigns. Immediately the clueless enemies watched as the hull of the ship disappeared. Explosions came everywhere before they slammed into the floor. They all screamed and before long they watched as the ship disintegrated away causing them to fall through the sky. They all screamed and screamed their lungs out as they were sure that they would fall to their deaths.

This was what Ryu witnessed as he saw them suddenly screaming hysterically. He turned to Naruto who had a grin across his face before the blonde nodded for Ryu to go. The Dragon Ninja took the opportunity and took out everyone in one swift stroke while Naruto gave him a thumbs up.

"What was that?" Ryu asked while Naruto chuckled.

"Magen: Musei Shin'en no Jutsu( Demonic Illusion: Silent Abyss Technique)," Naruto said to which Ryu folded his arms really wanting an explanation.

"You don't know what Genjutsu is?" Naruto asked while Ryu shook his head. He was sure that maybe they had something related to it, but as far as Naruto and his use in it then he didn't know.

"Basically I just manipulate my chakra and yours making you see, hear, and feel what I want you to. It's my best art and I love it," Naruto said while Ryu nodded his head. The two then quickly heard an explosion and looked outside. Naruto narrowed his eyes at seeing a small little aircraft linking itself to the airship.

"Ryu, is that how they got in?" Naruto asked while Ryu nodded his head though it was hesitant.

"It might be possible. What are you thinking?" Ryu asked while Naruto closed his eyes.

"Kyuubi, Nibi-chan, do you feel it?" Naruto asked them and the two bijuu stirred. Nibi stepped out of the kitchen and could see Kyuubi leaning up from a table he had been waiting on for his dinner. He closed his eyes and snorted.

"Yep, we feel it brat. A very high surge of electricity on the roof of this ship. I don't know what you're planning, but you'd better do it soon," Kyuubi said while Naruto groaned. He nodded and leapt off the railing.

"Ryu, I'm going to go and disconnect that ship from this place. You take care of the guy on the roof," Naruto said and before Ryu could even ask about the guy on the roof, Naruto quickly ran down the stairs.

"I guess I'm going to the roof then," Ryu said to himself before he ran down a corner. Meanwhile Naruto, ran down the stairs and came up to a door. He cursed and looked at it before looking at some kind of scanner.

"What the hell is this?" Naruto wondered before he looked at a few words.

"Hand verification needed," He read while sighing. He held up his hand and placed it on the scanner. He watched and widened his eyes before he saw a light flash over his hand. It blazed outright making Naruto cover his ears.

"DNA not identified," it said while Naruto growled. He didn't have time for this. Naruto held out his hand and made the Rasengan.

"Rasengan," Naruto shouted as he blasted the door away and made it slam into a wall. He walked through it while the scanner in front of him flashed.

"Access granted," it said while Naruto shook his head. It was only then did he notice that the lights went out. Naruto cursed underneath his breath before he noticed a pair of red eyes coming for him. He narrowed his eyes before shouting.

"Katon: Hokakyu no Jutsu( Fire Release: Grand Phoenix Fireball Technique)," Naruto shouted and he watched the entire room light up to show him that he was surrounded before a destructive blast hit the wall forcing all the air out of it. Naruto grinned as he took a hold of his swords.

"Time to die dattebayo," Naruto said with a small grin to his face.

With Ryu

Ryu hopped on a ladder and quickly climbed it higher and higher until he noticed a small valve keeping him from it. He snorted and with a quick slash destroyed it and made it to the top of the airship only to see thunderous clouds outside while there was one enormous looking man chuckling to him. He glared hard at the person before he cackled.

"I didn't expect you to make it up here so fast," he said while Ryu folded his arms.

"Who are you?" Ryu asked while the man cackled some more. His cybernetic arms flailing around him while Ryu took a hold of his Dragon Sword.

"I'm General Dynamo. You are a hostile to the Vigoor Empire and you will be dealt with," he said while Ryu narrowed his eyes. He shook his head while assuming his traditional stance.

"Not before you are," he said and the fight between the two began.

With Pakura and Maki

The two kunoichi currently entered Kusagakure easily and were currently sitting at a Dango shop. Both decided to take a break since they had nothing better to do at the moment, but they seemed content enough to just wait for a little bit.

"So what's the word Pakura-sensei?" Maki asked while Pakura laid her head down on the counter. She shrugged her shoulders and snorted.

"Nothing if I know anything. She said before she noticed a red haired girl about the same age as Maki going through the streets. She seemed...distant from others who were just looking at her like she was just an ordinary girl.

"Hmm weird," Pakura said before she and Maki heard shouting. They turned to see three Kusa jonin take a fourteen year old girl through the streets.

"Would you let me go! I said I didn't do it!" she shouted. Pakura and Maki glanced at each other, but didn't say anything that might give them away and settled for looking at the girl. She had some waist-length white hair that seemed to be covered with a green bandana. She obviously had grey eyes, but they seemed to have a distinct pattern of circles in them. She wore a sleeveless kimono over a green top that only has a long green sleeve covering her left arm along with the green bandana. Both her arms were bandaged up to her elbows. She also wore black trousers with shinobi sandals. She growled while they took her away.

"Pakura-sensei, does she seem...off to you?" Maki asked while Pakura shrugged her shoulders. She merely played with the glass in her hands and turned back to the table.

"We should-," Maki wanted to go and help, but the glare she got from Pakura simply told her to be quiet while she thought things over.

"Hey, what did that girl over there do?" someone asked whispering not so low which allowed Pakura and Maki to hear them both.

"Yeah I heard. She tried to open the box didn't she?" someone said to which Pakura narrowed her eyes. Maki glared hard, but she didn't say anything and just eat her dango peacefully.

"What do you think they're going to do with her?" another person asked. They were obviously female while someone shrugged their shoulders.

"Who knows, but she might end up in the Blood Prison for all we know," the person said while Pakura widened her eyes. She quickly jumped to her feet while trying to maintain an air of professionalism while Maki watched her sensei rise.

"Maki, we're leaving," Pakura said while Maki nodded her head.

"Why Pakura-sensei?" she asked, though she probably could guess.

"Simple, we just found a good little piece of information. If we're lucky then he might be happy with this as well," Pakura said and Maki nodded her head as the two kunoichi left.

With Naruto

The blonde shivered while he was hanging for his life. He cursed and didn't dare look down. He had pulled a lever off the side of the wall and before he realized it, the back compartment opened and it quickly showed the ship that had attached itself to their ride. Naruto had grabbed two lines that connected themselves and shimmed himself across them though he looked down and gulped.

"Oh dear god. This is too high! I can't even see the ground!" Naruto yelled out mentally making Kyuubi and Nibi see what he was watching. They both widened their eyes to seeing how far up in the air Naruto was along with what he was doing.

"Kit, you'd better move. A fall from this height will definitely kill you," Kyuubi said while Naruto gulped. He nodded and began to vigorously work his body across the wires before the familiar sound of gunshots assaulted his ears. Naruto still didn't know what the hell a SWAT team was, but they seemed to be like the ANBU if he had to give a comparison, but that didn't change the fact that he was getting shot at. Naruto cursed before he let go of the wires. The soldiers watched as he fell to his doom.

"Is this kid insane?" one of them asked while Naruto crossed his fingers.

"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu," Naruto shouted and three clones came into existence. They each grabbed each other's legs and with all their power sent him back into the air and allowed him to slam onto the platform.

"You were saying dattebayo?" Naruto asked before he quickly threw a shuriken at one of them. The three soldiers jumped out of the way from the weapon before they saw Naruto bite his thumb.

"Kuchiyose no Jutsu," Naruto shouted and the soldiers could only watch as five human-sized snakes came into view.

"Take 'em down," Naruto said and on his command, the snakes charged at them all while Naruto unzipped his jacket. He smiled seeing Mikata alright and no bullet wounds on her before he turned back to see all three soldiers being strangled to death by Naruto's summons. Naruto then raced across the outside platform while the storm raged outside. He quickly hopped through a window and landed on the ground with his feet clanking along the weird transportation that he hadn't been used to walking on with it making so much noise. Naruto noticed a sort of electrical conduit and tapped his earpiece.

"Ayane-chan I just found some kind of...generator or something for the enemy ship. Should I destroy it?" Naruto asked and Ayane, who had been holding out a map to guide Naruto, nodded her head though Naruto couldn't see it while she spoke.

"Yes, destroy that. It will render the ship immobile, but I'm sure that Ryu is handling the main problem at the moment. Just be prepared for a not-so-soft landing," Ayane mentioned in her earpiece. Naruto cursed under his breath before he he took out his kodachi. He'd blow away the machine, but he wanted to conserve chakra as much as he could. With a quick slash Naruto destroyed the machine causing a mild explosion which made the alarm burst.

"Generator destroyed! Destruction imminent! Self-Destruct activated!" Naruto gulped and quickly made use of his legs as he rushed out of the building. The blonde rushed back to their original airship and landed on the ground. He turned around only to see a huge explosion while the ship fell from the sky.

"I do not envy whoever has to clean that up," Naruto said to himself before rushing off to go and find Ryu.

With Ryu

The Dragon Ninja jumped and rushed through the air as he dodged lightning strikes left and right. He performed a downward slash towards his opponent only for it to be blocked by his large arm enhancement device. Ryu cursed before he backflipped away while Dynamo laughed. He sent another wave of lightning at Ryu, but the Dragon Ninja was too fast. He quickly shadow-stepped to the side to avoid the attack while he laughed.

"Not gonna attack me ninja? Or are you too weak to try?" he asked while Ryu stepped back. He knew much better than to fall to the intimidation of someone like this. He was better trained than that. Still he couldn't help, but admit that dealing with someone like this was sort of a bother.

"The path to victory has my roads, the same is said for defeat," Ryu told him while Dynamo easily laughed his head off. He was sick of hearing such things from someone who clung to an old way of life before they heard a voice.

"You should really listen to the guy. He knows a lot more than your fat butt ever could," Naruto said with a grin, but Ryu noticed something different. On Naruto's back were two long swords that he didn't have before. Did he find them here?

"And what does a brat know?" Dynamo asked while Naruto grinned. He took the two swords and threw them towards Ryu.

"Ryu catch!" Naruto shouted and the Dragon Ninja jumped into the air and took the blades into his hands.

"The Dragon's Claw and Tiger Fang. So this is where they were. Thank you Uzumaki Naruto. The Hayabusa village has been searching for these blades for a long time," Ryu said while Naruto gave him a thumbs up though this was all new to him. Ryu turned around while Naruto stood to his side.

"Tell me fatso, do you know what chakra is?" Naruto asked while the fat general raised an eyebrow.

"Chakra?" he asked while Naruto grinned. That confirms it very well for him.

"Ryu, we'll be going then," Naruto said as he weaved his handsigns. Ryu nodded his head while Dynamo watched as the two disappeared. The clouds began to morph in front of him and the weather picked up. He watched as hail fell and somehow fire came from the sky. It attacked the ship relentlessly while Dynamo cursed. He didn't know what the hell this all was, but he was getting worried. The ship then caught on fire. He watched it explode all around him before he touched his earpiece.

"Get me out of here!" he shouted while he heard the static of his piece.

"Dynamo...what...hear...you...loosing...connection...what...you...say?" the voice stopped and Dynamo cursed before he saw Naruto behind him.

"This is all your fault!" he shouted throwing his hands into the air to slam them over Naruto's head. The blonde held out his hand as the genjutsu faded.

"Rasengan!" Naruto shouted and Ryu watched as the sphere slammed into his enemy before, despite his size, he was sent flying from the ship. He held a neutral glare towards Naruto before he jumped into the air, He performed multiple slashes with his dual swords before he slammed Dynamo into the ground. Naruto and Ryu watched as the lightning on his body flared while they turned to each other.

"We'd better go," Naruto said and Ryu couldn't agree more. Suddenly the ship exploded left and right around Naruto and Ryu before Naruto turned on his earpiece. They quickly ran through the ship while Naruto spoke.

"Ayane-chan, get off the ship! We're going down!" Naruto shouted while Ayane spoke in the earpiece.

"Already ahead of you. You both better get off. We're going to be hitting the ground and I'd rather not be on this ship when it does," Ayane said before going silent. Naruto and Ryu stopped as the alarms flared left and right. They looked out a window while Naruto cursed.

"Got anything Ryu?" Naruto asked while Ryu snorted. He easily grabbed Naruto and did what the blonde hoped he would never have to do. They jumped out of the airship. Naruto yelled out while and Ryu left the burning airship behind. You would think that he;d be used to this by now, but you...were...WRONG!

Thankfully for him and Ryu, they weren't all that far from the ground while he and Ryu crashed into some trees. They quickly took cover while Naruto, Ayane, Ryu, Kyuubi and Nibi were greeted to the sight of the blimp slamming into the ground and exploding and Naruto only had one thought.

"I am NEVER flying again in my life," Naruto said shuddering while Ryu got to his feet. Ayane shook her head at him before helping Naruto to his feet.

"Come on, let's go," Ryu said and they all left the scene behind.

With Platoon 13

Samui, Sasuke and Shikamaru were leaning against a tree stump with Samui explaining the news to Sasuke and Shikamaru. The latter rubbed the back of his head and rolled his eyes.

"Troublesome. Leave it to Naruto to get an A-rank mission helping those guys out. When is he going to be back?" Shikamaru asked while Samui shook her head. She didn't know either and Sasuke just snorted while folding his arms.

"So Naruto's gone on an A-rank mission. Lucky ass," Sasuke said pouting while Samui coughed to get both of her new teammates attention.

"Oh, did you not realize it? We have one also," Samui said to which Sasuke and Shikamaru widened their eyes,

"Seriously? We have an A-rank mission? Well it's about time, what are we going to do?" Sasuke asked while Samui held up a scroll.

"We're going with Jiraiya-sama," Samui answered while Shikamaru and Sasuke raised their eyebrows.

"For what?" the Uchiha asked his squad leader and Samui furled her soft blonde hair before placing her arms on her hips.

"We're going to the portal that Naruto took to their world," Samui said while Sasuke straightened up a little more.

"We're going to go and help him?" Sasuke asked getting a little excited which Shikamaru and Samui nodded, but the shaking of her head from left to right deflated his enthusiasm while she spoke.

"No, we're going to have Jiraiya-sama take a look at the portal and see if we can't replicate it. Hopefully we can make on inside Konoha so we won't have to travel at least five days just to get there. It was authorized by Shiden-sama, Joe-sama and Hokage-sama. I don't think I have to tell you guys just how bad the consequences would be if our enemies found out about it. Now then, come on and pack. We're supposed to meet him at the gates in two hours," Samui spoke as Shikamaru and Sasuke walked off, both with sighs of their own. Samui looked up at the clear blue sky and placed her hand on her forward to cover the son from her eyes.

"I just hope that this doesn't come back to bite us sooner," Samui said as she walked off.

With Orochimaru

The Snake sannin growled and cursed before he slammed the table. Wrong. It was all wrong. Nothing was going as it should for him. Sasuke didn't have the curse mark, Konoha hadn't been destroyed, he couldn't find Tsunade to heal the destroyed nerves in his arms so he still couldn't cast any jutsu and Tayuya was nowhere to be found. He swore that when he found her he would make her pay for even thinking of betraying him.

"Lord Orochimaru, I believe I have some information for you," Kabuto said while Orochimaru growled. He really wasn't in the mood to really hear anything that Kabuto had to offer and Kabuto could tell based on the way his master scrunched his face. He wasn't sure why, but he had more of a reason for knowing than not.

"What is it Kabuto?" Orochimaru asked in a completely pissed off tone that Kabuto was aware of. Just tell his master the news and then depart. He shouldn't do anything more than that.

"Yes well Orochimaru-sama, sources told me that Konoha is planning a new alliance of-," Kabuto jumped back from a sharp kick that Orochimaru sent his way and watched it break the wall next to him.

"Kabuto, I have no care for who Konoha affiliates itself with. The only concern that you need to have right now is whether or not you have found Tsunade or Tayuya yet. Got it?" Orochimaru asked while Kabuto bowed.

"Yes, but Orochimaru-sama these people that Konoha affiliates with. They were amazing. They fought during the invasion. They looked no older than me and yet they could outlast any jonin and maybe even any anbu in their game," Kabuto said and that instantly made Orochimaru perk up. He grinned to himself. Such a body might just make him that much more happier.

"Fine then Kabuto, who are these people?" Orochimaru asked whole Kabuto bowed. He grinned and adjusted his glasses.

"They are called people from the Hayabusa Village and Mugen Tenshin Clan. I've never heard of such a clan before so I thought I should make you aware," Kabuto said while Orochimaru raised an eyebrow. Some no name village and another no name clan? How could such people slip from underneath his nose? He had spies in almost every place that he could think of so how was this not something that he could know about.

"I see, well that's some good information. Very good Kabuto. I think I will go see what these people have to offer. Where are they located?" Orochimaru asked and that's when Kabuto froze. He scratched his cheek while Orochimaru glared hard at him. Kabuto nervously chuckled and spoke.

"Ummm we don't know,"

The result of that answer was Kabuto getting kicked into the wall by Orochimaru. He wouldn't let such young, delicious bodies get away from him. For some reason that seemed to creep Kabuto out a little before he saw the burning desire in Orochimaru's eyes before he got to his feet.

"It will be done Orochimaru-sama. Just be patient and we'll find out," Kabuto said making Orochimaru bid him goodbye before he did something stupid and kill his right-hand assistant.

"So there are young ninja who are capable of even fighting the anbu. I think I really would like a body like that. Then when I have the sharingan I will be the most unstoppable shinobi in the world.

With Itachi and Konan

The male and female Akatsuki members were currently somewhere near the Land of Iron as they had a contact that told them to come and give some help. Itachi and Konan walked in silence while Konan noticed Itachi more or less looking at the snow covered ground than anything else.

"Something on your mind?" Konan asked looking forward and deciding to engage in some conversation. Itachi turned to her and shook his head.

"It's nothing. I just feel like I'm going to have an encounter soon enough," Itachi said to which Konan raised an eyebrow.

"in our line of work then you would make encounters regardless. Is it because Kisame's not with you?" Konan asked and Itachi snorted. He brushed some snow from his hair while closing his eyes.

"Hardly, Kisame is with Zetsu at the moment. Why the sudden interest in conversation?" Itachi asked while Konan looked up at the snow falling. She held out her hand and let some fall on her.

"I'm not sure why. I really don't agree with this," Konan said suddenly while Itachi raised an eyebrow.

"Agree with what?" He asked though he had more than a good idea of what she didn't agree with. There wasn't a lot that Konan disagreed with in terms of Akatsuki, but maybe Itachi had it figured wrong. Itachi could read a lot of people. He could read Kisame, Deidara, Sasori, Kakuzu, Hidan and sometimes Zetsu. There were only two people in there group that he couldn't read. They were Pain and Konan. She just kept to herself too much that he didn't know all that much about her. Realizing that she was talking, Itachi snapped from his thoughts.

"...Which is why I don't agree with these methods. I know we mean well, but I feel like we're doing more harm than good," Konan said and Itachi cursed in his mind as he missed her reasons.

"They'll kill you if you tell them that," Itachi said and to his surprise Konan didn't respond though he thought that maybe she would.

"That is true I suppose," she responded much to Itachi's silent surprise before they continued walking.

Back in Konoha

Samui, Sasuke and Shikamaru were all gathered around the Konoha Gates while they waited for Jiraiya. It really didn't take long for the Toad Sage to appear in front of the three of them while Platoon 13 looked at him.

"Hey brats. Are you ready to go?" Jiraiya asked and everyone nodded with their backpacks on their backs.

"Yeah we're ready, though remind me. Why are we doing this?" Shikamaru asked though it didn't really matter if he was told or not. It was all still be troublesome all the same.

"It was discussed between the Hayabusa, Mugen Tenshin and Konoha. We're going to see if this portal can't be moved for fear of other people crossing it and we believe it will serve all three of us better if we had each other's back just like the case with Naruto. So Sarutobi-sensei asked me to check it out. HAHAHA it figures that only a man of my skill and superior sealing could be used in such a difficult endeavor," Jiraiya said while Samui rolled her eyes. Sasuke shook his head while Shikamaru snorted.

"So where is Naruto anyway?" Shikamaru asked while Sasuke turned to him.

"Umm you already know. He's in there world helping them out. Were you paying attention?" Sasuke asked and Shikamaru nodded.

"Yeah, but I meant how was he doing? Has he said anything? Does he need help or something?" Shikamaru asked while Samui shook her head again.

"He's fine. Besides she's with him after all. If she's there then there is nothing to worry about," Samui responded as Sasuke and Shikamaru turned their heads to each other.

"Who is she?" Shikamaru asked while Sasuke shrugged.

"Hn, like I would know lazy," he said following Samui and Jiraiya. Shikamaru snorted again and just settled for walking. However he then felt a chill go down his spine as he shivered. Yep, something was definitely wrong.

With Pakura and Maki

The two females were currently walking towards Kusagakure's prison and knocked on the door. It was opened and both came inside.

"What do you two want? If you have no business being here then you should leave," a guard said to them, but Pakura ignored him and looked to see the same girl crouching in her cell with her head in her knees.

"Umm sorry I just say that girl a few days ago and I'd like to talk with her. Would that be alright?" Pakura asked while the man narrowed his eyes.

"Who are you?" he asked suspiciously taking a kunai in his hands. Maki tensed, but Pakura kept her face impassive to the man's supposed threat.

"I'm just a simple civilian. I haven't been around these parts and she helped me. I'd just like to thank her," Pakura lied, and what a lie it was as the guard looked at her strangely. He was about to say something before Maki came behind him and slammed him in the back of the neck sending the guard to the floor. Pakura stared at him for a bit before looking at Maki holding the blunt end of her kunai.

"Was that necessary?" Pakura asked while Maki shrugged her shoulders. She then merely smiled and tucked her kunai away into her pouch.

"No I don't think so, but I'd at least say that it was better than being interrogated by that guy. Let me guess we can't stay here after we're done?" Maki asked while Pakura nodded her head.

"Yeah, thanks to your little stunt we should get moving after this. Come on, let's speak to her and then we'll leave," Pakura responded and Maki could agree with her sensei on that. The two kunoichi walked up to the cage and knelt down.

"Hey," Maki said shocking the fourteen year old girl from her thoughts. She looked up to see the two looking at her with semi-smiles on their faces. Well, Pakura's was more like a neutral smile, but a smile nonetheless.

"Who are you? What do you want?" she asked while Maki leaned against the cage. She didn't say anything and neither did Pakura. The teenage girl looked at them both before Pakura finally responded.

"We just heard you screaming in the streets. You attracted quite a bit of attention to yourself. Why are you in here anyway? You're obviously a shinobi," Pakura said folding her arms while the girl snorted.

"What's it matter? This place is so stupid. Who the hell puts the damn box so close to the entrance? Dammit," she said while Maki raised an eyebrow.

"Box? What box?" she asked and the girl snorted.

"It's our village's secret. I can't tell you. I just know that things aren't going to go well. My best friend, Muku, was supposed to see his father tonight. Hopefully I will be able to get out of here by that time," she said while Pakura stood to her feet.

"I see. Well, what did you do?" she asked and the girl sighed.

"I had to get some food, but wound up getting caught. It's stupid things like that. But I swore that I would revive this village. It was my promise," she said while Maki and Pakura turned to each other.

"Hmm well alright then," Pakura said before turning around. Maki watched her leave before turning back to the inmate. She just shrugged her shoulders and followed her sensei out into the streets.

"Umm Pakura-sensei, why are we leaving?" Maki asked and Pakura shook her head.

"We're not leaving. I am and you are going to stay here," Pakura said which caused Maki to widen her eyes.

"What? What am I going to do here?" Maki asked while Pakura smiled.

"Simple, you are going to-," Pakura didn't get to finish before a large poof came next to her. She and Maki turned to see Taro looking at them both with a scroll in his mouth.

"From Gaara-san and his sssssiblings," Taro said not being able to do his Ss the way he did them. Pakura took the scroll with a little thanks before Taro left. She unfurled it and looked down it for a little bit. She then widened her eyes and Maki saw her sensei visibly shake in some slight fear.

"Pakura-sensei? What is it?" Maki asked while Pakura groaned.

"Change of plans. You're coming with me," Pakura said and Maki tilted her head to the side.

"Why?" she asked and Pakura burned the scroll before turning to Maki. She grabbed Maki's shoulders and Maki could see her sensei's sweaty face.

"Maki, I had thought that it might happen a little later, but it seems that Suna has added you to the bingo book. Gaara sent me the scroll. It looks like I can't send you out just yet," Pakura said while Maki nodded. They both groaned before hitting the streets. It was then that a blue haired woman accidentally hit Pakura's shoulder. The two glanced at each other as Pakura sized her up. They seemed to be about the same height maybe Pakura was a bit taller, but only by an inch or two.

"Sorry about that," the woman said and Pakura nodded leaving with Maki next to her.

"Weirdo. Why did I just feel a surge in chakra from her?" Pakura wondered before shrugging her shoulders.

With Naruto and Ryu

Naruto and Ryu stood atop a large cable line. The blonde jinchuuriki and dragon ninja looked down at the city full of lights and buildings while Naruto decided to simply stare in awe.

"Wow even the lights of Konoha don't compare to this," he said while Ryu stayed silent. He glanced at Naruto before he dropped his arms that he had been folding.

"It's time to go Naruto," Ryu said and Naruto couldn't agree more with him. Naruto watched Ryu jumped from where he was standing a slide down the electrical power lines with his arm guards while Naruto distributed his chakra though his body so that the wires wouldn't hurt him directly. Ryu told him about human deaths to such things, but Naruto already knew that since his village used the same types of things in their lights and shops.

It didn't take long before Naruto and Ryu hit the ground, officially entering the City of Tairon. They could obviously see that no one was outside, but Naruto could feel the plenty of chakra or rather, KI signatures of people who were patrolling the streets.

"So this is where that asshole is at huh?" Naruto asked while Ryu knelt down. He could feel the residual spiritual energy. He could also "feel" the Dark Dragon Blade. It's evil energy sort of calling for anyone who was willing to take it and become the Devil himself.

"Do you feel it Naruto?" Ryu asked while Naruto glared hard. How could he not feel it? Kyuubi and Nibi were having a damn fit over it. Both kept saying that their demonic chakra was going out of control. No doubt the seal on the Dark Dragon Blade was already broken.

"Yeah, it very strong. Almost too strong for Kyuubi and Nibi. No doubt when we get that think I think Kyuubi's chakra is going to be leaking from me," Naruto said while Ryu glanced at him. Naruto didn't seem any different for the most part so he just settled for trusting his word.

"That's not all you need to be concerned about," Ayane said coming down while Naruto and Ryu turned to her. They both asked for her to explain while Ayane looked around.

"No doubt the military is investigating that little air ride we took. So I don't think it's going to take them long to find us," Ayane said, but she knew she might be talking to the wrong people. Ryu, well he was a master of stealth and if he wanted it then you couldn't find or detect him even if you wanted to. Naruto, he had been chased by Anbu rather frequently around his village with his pranks and needless to say this, but if he really didn't want you to then Naruto couldn't get caught either. You could trust him on that.

"Well we'll just have to improvise," Naruto said with a grin. Ayane and Ryu could only wonder what he could be thinking about, but Ryu decided to ponder that later.

"Good. Well Naruto and I are going to go handle that. Ayane, what are you going to do?" Ryu asked and Ayane placed a hand on her hip.

"I have some other business to take care of," Ayane said making Naruto and Ryu nodded.

"Fine, then Naruto and I are heading out. Let's go Naruto," Ryu said walking off. Naruto smirked with a nod before turning around.

"Be careful Ayane-chan, your wounds still haven't fully healed," Naruto said and Ayane's response was to shrug her shoulders, but she could feel Naruto's concern for her and it did make her slightly happy.

"I don't need you worrying about me," Ayane said, but Naruto merely chuckled.

"Yeah I guess you're right, but still I feel like I need to. Which is why I'll do this," Naruto said and before Ayane could wonder about it she was pulled and could only watch as her lips met Naruto's in a soft kiss. Ayane widened her eyes, but she made no pull to break said kiss with Naruto which was the first thing that the blonde noticed. Kyuubi and Nibi grinned at the scene while Ayane, surprisingly, closed her eyes and just settled into the kiss. Naruto wrapped his arms around her waist to bring her closer to him.

Still Naruto and Ayane had things to do so both, reluctantly, broke the kiss and Ayane settled for looking at Naruto for a bit.

"Well I'd better catch up to Ryu. See you later Ayane-chan," Naruto said before he dashed off leaving Ayane where she was standing still a little confused about what the hell just happened.

With Naruto

The blonde quickly did catch up with Ryu seeing as how the dragon ninja wasn't running rather he was walking which seemed to tell Naruto that the ninja was...waiting for him.

"Enjoy your time?" Ryu asked while Naruto's eyebrow twitched. Yep, he knew. As you would expect from the world's greatest ninja...after Naruto himself of course.

"Ignoring," Naruto said which made Ryu snort. He then shrugged his shoulders as the jinchuuriki host and dragon ninja continued their trek. Both didn't find anything of substantial importance to their mission.

"Where do we even start?" Naruto asked and Ryu took out a map of the Vigoor Capital. Naruto even wondered where he had gotten that map, but he didn't say anything about it. Not like he really cared either way.

"The most popular place for information is a place called Han's Bar. We'll start there and Naruto, remain discreet," Ryu instructed and if it wasn't for Naruto's training he would've taken offense to that, but he knew what Ryu meant.

"Sure thing Ryu," Naruto said with a small grin to his face.

Naruto and Ryu continued to traverse the streets of Tairon and it seemed weird to Naruto that no one was in the streets. No really, it was empty. Very very empty. Sort of creepy if he had to give it a word. Naruto decided to open up a scroll and read while he and Ryu continued to walk and it really didn't take them long to see the object of their desire. In bright neon lights read "Han's Bar" to the two. Naruto smirked while Ryu looked at the semi-large establishment.

"So we just have to enter here right?" Naruto asked and Ryu nodded. Naruto grabbed the handle, but didn't get to open the door as the sound of gunshots assaulted both his and Ryu's ears. Naruto dodged a spray of bullets that hit the door in front of him before another loud noise assaulted his arms. It was much louder than the gunfire he was sure as the two turned around. Naruto saw two Vigoor military men coming at him, but they seemed to be riding some type of...well, Naruto didn't even know what it could be.

"Ryu, what are those?" Naruto asked while Ryu sighed.

"Vigoor style motorcycles," Ryu said while Naruto looked at them in awe. Oh he would so have to ride one of those. If not for anything else then just for the sheer fun of saying that he did, but now wasn't the time. Naruto and Ryu quickly got to work while one man shot at Naruto. The blonde jumped into the air to dodge the bullets while Ryu dealt with the other one.

"It's a good thing you guys don't know chakra or this would be that much more difficult," Naruto said as he landed on the back of the rider. He grinned like mad before he thrusted both his kodachi into his back as they appeared through his chest. The man coughed and gagged on his own blood before Naruto backflipped off sending the rider into the wall with a small explosion. He turned turned to see Ryu blocking the bullets with his sword in hand. He then darted to the side before tossing a kunai at the motorcyclist. The man's armor parried the shot easily and he started to dash at Ryu again while the dragon ninja and Naruto stood together. Both did their own handsigns and shouted.

"Katon: Hokakyu no Jutsu," Naruto shouted while Ryu made a fireball with his hands.

"Kaen Ryu no Jutsu," Ryu shouted and the two sent their separate techniques at the man before they combined together and entirely obliterated him leaving nothing alive. Naruto snorted while Ryu brushed some dirt from his uniform.

"Nothing too hard right?" Naruto asked and Ryu agreed before turning to the blonde.

"Do you still have the Dragon's Claw and Tiger Fang?" he asked and Naruto nodded holding up a scroll.

"Right here. Do you need them now?" he asked and Ryu shook his head. It was just something to know for right now.

"No, but that's good. Hmmm, what this?" Ryu asked looking down to see a scroll fall one of the downed men. He opened it and Naruto looked over his shoulder. It was a letter, but it seemed to be from someone who died.

"I can' go on. I have failed in my mission. I see the light of day dwindle from my eyes as I try to write this out, but before I die I recall an amazing sight. I see a blonde woman stand up to numerous fiends. She's incredible. She beats them left and right with her large weapon without even breaking a sweat. She seems to really hate the fiends. She's as beautiful as she is deadly. I don't confront her merely because of my cowardice at her strength. I see the light. It's time for me to go however I really wish I could see her one more time. Long live the Black Spider Clan,"

Ryu finished reading while Naruto glared. He still remembered his C-rank mission involving that asshole with the Black Spider Clan and it still left him in a bad mood.

"Hmm, so what's a fiend?" Naruto asked and Ryu glared hard. He crinkled the scroll in his hands which made Naruto look at him questioningly.

"Fiends area collection of supernatural races descended from an evil supreme deity known as an Archfiend, the races are comprised of evil deities, demons, the undead and living are three types of fiends. Lower fiends, Archfiends, and Greater Fiends. I'd tell you more, but we really have to go," Ryu said and Naruto couldn't agree more. That was until they both heard screaming. Naruto and Ryu turned their heads to see people rushing out of the bar as they scrambled past the two shinobi. Well it seemed that Naruto found out where most of the people were hiding away.

"Guess we go that way then," Naruto said running in with Ryu following him. The two bursted through the door to see a...a...well Naruto, again, had no idea what it was. It had black horns on its head, a very red exterior and black legs. It's razor sharp teeth came across its mouth while it roared.

"I guess that's a fiend?" Naruto asked and Ryu nodded. Both were about to engage before they saw a woman in front of them. She smirked and dropped her weapon. The creature charged at her, but she merely raised her weapon and slammed it in the head sending it to the ground killing it. She smirked before turning around. She stared at Ryu and Naruto while both continued to look at her. Naruto, mostly in awe and respect.

"Ohhh looks like I have some guests. And one of them seems to have demonic blood," she said staring at Naruto. The blonde narrowed his eyes and raised an eyebrow. He didn't have demonic blood. He had a demon inside him, but not demonic blood...didn't he?

"However I'm not a fiend thank you very much," Naruto said coming to his own aid to which the female merely shrugged her shoulders.

"If you say so," she said to them both. She then walked away, but Naruto had some lingering curiosity so he followed and in turn Ryu did as well.

On top of a roof

The woman leaned on the fence of one of the buildings while Naruto and Ryu gazed at her. They took in her appearance, but Ryu was the one who said something.

"The way you handled that fiend. It was impressive," he said and Naruto nodded as well while the woman laughed.

"Oh that's nothing to what I can really do. I'm just your ordinary fiend hunter. I'm searching for the Dark Samurai, Doku. He's somewhere here and I'm going to find him and kill him. I'm Rachel by the way," she said.

"I see," he said, but then she just smiled and stood up.

"You two should leave. I doubt you can handle this job, especially not the kid. I'll tell ya something boy. Those who try to do extraordinary things die young," she said while Naruto glared daggers at her. Immediately Rachel and Ryu could feel the KI from Naruto's body while the blonde walked up to her.

"You think that just cause you can swing that hammer around that I can't beat you. Not on your life. And don't worry about me. This kid can take care of himself dattebayo," Naruto said turning around before he smirked.

"I mean you have the outfit laid out right there. All you need is the whip and the masochist," Naruto said with a grin. Ryu glanced towards Rachel and noticed her attire. Yeah he really had a point there.

"Watch it kid. You don't want to piss me off," Rachel said while Naruto rolled his eyes.

"Whatever," he said before Rachel quickly left with some type of grappling hook. Ryu then turned to Naruto and stared evenly while Naruto rubbed the back of his head.

"What? What was your first impression when you saw her?" Naruto asked before he noticed Ryu shake his head at his blonde partner. Naruto chuckled slightly as he began to walk, but-

"Arrrgh," Naruto shouted at the top of his breath before he fell to the floor Ryu widened his eyes and raced towards Naruto. The blonde shouted as he felt a quick rise in demonic chakra. His whiskers grew more defined, his muscles grew more toned and his hair grew spikier. Ryu could do nothing for him while Naruto cursed at the top of his breath before passing out on the floor.


KG: And done with that I guess.

Naruto: AHHH GET ME OUT OF HERE! I don't want to die yet!

KG: What are you talking about?

Naruto: The world is ending! We're totally fucked!

KG: Oh brother and just when I got to have my Tv show.

KG: But I love you anyway.

Rachel: I know you do.

Ayane: Naruto, stop screaming!

Naruto: B-But I'm not ready to die yet.

Samui: None of us are. But we'll just have to be cool and live with it.

KG: Oh well. Only one of two things will happen. One, all the people in the world die and my stories stop or we all live to see tomorrow and Christmas and I continue to update. But if we're to die then I'm gonna do something I've always wanted to do!

KG: I end my turn. (Grins)

Yugi: You've made a lapse in judgement KyuubiGoku. Now you will pay for it. I play my spell card, Monster Rebirth. This allows me to bring back one card from either your or my graveyard and I think I'll take, Naruto Uzumaki!

KG: Oh shit!

Naruto: I'm gonna be the Hokage!

Yugi: But Naruto won't be staying around for long. I sacrifice your friend to bring out an even mightier being, The Summoned Skull!

SS: (Screeeeeeech) ATK: 2500 DEF: 1200

Yugi: Now your girl will pay the price! Summoned Skull, Static Shockwave!

Sakura: Oh boy!

KG: Bye Sakura!

Sakura: AHHHHHH! (destroyed) -2500

5500

8000

Yugi: I play one card face down. You're turn KG.

KG: Oh yeah. I play the magic card, Flower Maiden's Wrath. This card allows me to bring back 1x Sakura to the field. (Thoughts) Not like we need anymore.

Sakura: I'm back already!

KG: But she won't be staying because the best part of maiden's wrath is that it allows me to power-up Sakura enough to destroy both her and that Summoned Skull of yours. Go Sakura.

Sakura: SHANNARO! (Both destroyed)

Yugi: Hmph, not bad, but you're still left defenseless.

KG: Is what you'd like to think. Now then I play the card, Sasuke Uchiha in attack mode!

Sasuke: Hn ATK: 1600 DEF: 1700

Yugi: Okay, now what?

KG: Now...I'm going to do an intermission. That's all folks. Hope you enjoyed it. Let's all try to survive until tomorrow. See you later! Stay Breezy, protect what's important to you, review and SEND ME MY CREAM SODA NOW!

Announcer: We have to get back!

KG: Bye bye.
