Chapter 6

Naruto appeared on a branch, Holly and Mavis appeared a few moment a next to him. They had continued their surveillance on Gato for over a week, with neither Zabuza nor guards being any the wiser. Through this Kakashi was able to remove any threats quickly, causing Gato to slowly become more worried, as he was sure there was no leaks in his chain of command. But it did make him start thinking that it was possibly the second team that was the reason for these attacks on his thug attack force.

As such he decided to move up his attack plans against the Leaf Ninja and Tazuna's family. He was planning on hitting them with a large amount of low pay thugs, before Zabuza and his helpers would come in and finish off the now tired out ninja. He was hoping this would work as he could plan and deal with ninja but Naruto's team he had not planned on and they were for sure not ninja. It was why he was also planning on leaving the Island the day before the attack, and would not return for a week or Zabuza sent a message to him.

It was for this reason that Naruto and his team showed up the night before Gato's chosen day to leave. They were going to raid the base killing or capturing Gato before he could flee the island. They secondary objectives was to drop a good amount of the current men Gato had hired, as the other attack force was going to be arriving by boat the day of the attack; and the other was to remove Zabuza from the picture if possible.

They were first going to do this by bombing the base, causing terror and confusion. Mavis would use this to then sneak into the base to grab Gato, before escaping with him. Naruto and Holly on the other hand would be causing all sorts of terror and destruction. Once Mavis returned and gave the signal over their communication devices they would fall back.

Sometime during this they knew that Zabuza would show his face, though if he attacked them or not was an unknown. They would not move to kill him though unless he actively attacked him. This was because even if they still wanted him gone from this situation if he willing left it without a fight, then there was no harm in letting him live.

"Now you both remember your parts in this plan?" Naruto asked.

"Yes I do, though I really wanted to show them what a real vampire is made of," Mavis said.

"What, you think they think vampires are some sparkly idiots?" Holly said, teasing Mavis.

"Don't you dare remind me of those fool, you know how much I hated them, and their views of a so called 'Real' vampire," Mavis said looking rather annoyed.

"Yes and the fact you killed nearly all but two of their entire group, does not show that," Naruto said, remembering that time.

Mavis and he had been at the time jumping around from world to world. They had stopped for about a month on each, before moving on. They finally reached on world that had vampires like Mavis's own world. But the Vampire leaders found out about Mavis by accident and had gone to meet her. They decided she was to be removed for not being a true vampire, and a damage to the balance they had made.

At this point they had moved to kill her, but their abilities and skills were not able to match Mavis's own when she turned to smoke in front of the group before killing all but the twins of the group. Naruto at this time had finally found her, as she had been kidnapped when they had split apart for a little bit, to spend some time alone in the city. Naruto had stayed her hand from killing the last two. This surprised the twins as Naruto led Mavis away, after giving the two a warning that even if there is something new about a creature, do not think that means you should remove it right away.

They then left later the next night to avoid any more situations like this, though Naruto did make plans to stop by the world later with Mavis as it was the first planet in a while they had found that had actually vampires.

"That is besides the point," Mavis said, still looking annoyed.

"Yes, either way remember your jobs we have a base to raid," Naruto said.

Mavis and Holly both nodded, before Mavis disappeared into the night off towards a window were the attacks would not hit. Holly took off using her suits wings and moved to higher up in the tree to get a better sniping spot. Naruto at this point pulled out a long string of tags he had borrowed from Kakashi. They were explosive tags that once lit had a 10 second fuse. They were not what he had really wanted to use, but he had little other choice to cause a lot of confusion in a small amount of time.

The tags were each wrapped around a good size rock, he then throw them towards the building after lighting each one. The explosions were a good deal bigger than what he had though as the base was shaken rather hard by the force of each blast. Naruto grimaced wondering, just how powerful these tags could really be as he jumped down from the branch and pulled out his sword and pistol and began dealing with some of the thugs.

Holly up above covered Naruto advance making sure none came at him from behind. Finally there were no people left, out front. Naruto turned towards the base and waited, it was time for Mavis to complete her job. He was only there if Zabuza decided to make a move. Inside the base, unlike the outside any of the people who had been in it up till now were scrambling to escape through the back door. Gato was among this group, rather surprised by the sudden attack.

Gato was not sure if Zabuza would help defend him, as his job was removing the bridge builder. Then again if Gato got killed Zabuza would never get paid for that matter. Gato thoughts were derailed as suddenly one of his body guards was through rather hard to the side crashing through a wall. A second later Gato was grabbed and pulled away from the group before they could even identify the attacker. Gato for that matter was not sure what was going on as he was pulled through his base then suddenly out a window and towards the forest. Mavis smirked and quickly disappeared into the forest before Zabuza appeared, out front looking at Naruto.

"So it is your team, I need to deal with," Zabuza said.

"It was my team you always had to deal with," Naruto said, watching Zabuza closely.

"It you make it sound like you chose this battle, though the question now is, did you chose wisely," Zabuza said bringing out his large sword into full view.

Naruto blinked, slightly surprised how easily Zabuza as holding the blade, yet he was sure it had to weight close to 20 pounds if not more. Zabuza noticed Naruto gaze and smirked, "Surprised by this blade kid?"

"A little, I am surprised that you seem to be able to move it around without a problem, if we were not about to fight I would ask to see it. If only to see just how much it really weights," Naruto said.

"While I think that would be funny to watch you to try and use this, I rather not give away my weapon without a fight," Zabuza said, before he vanished to a normal's person view.

Naruto was not a normal human, and nor was Holly. There so call invisibility was really a high speed maneuver while staying in close to one location. Special cameras could easily catch them, and as such they were able to track Zabuza's movements without too much difficulty. He slowed and appeared back behind Naruto, who spun with him and brought out his blade and blocked the powerful swing only to be sent flying backwards. Naruto smirked and activated his wing on his own suit and floated in the air.

"Not bad kid, did not think you block that one," Zabuza said, looking up at Naruto, "and you know ninja wire is a good trick to fool Genin, but a Jonin like me it is not really neat."

Naruto rolled his eyes, "Who ever said I was using ninja wire, I am actually floating here. Anyone I have one more question before we start fighting again."

"What might that be," Zabuza asked.

"Well your working for Gato, and we just finished kidnapping him away. Will you keep fighting me and risk being killed, or will you leave right now without a fight?" Naruto asked.

"I will remove the bridge building and save my employer, if I must to earn my pay," Zabuza said.

"Then I guess it is your time to fall," Naruto said, getting ready to fight Zabuza.

Only for Zabuza smirked and began to get into a stance only to stop, and let out a gasp of surprise as he was hit with something. A hole had appeared where his heart would have been smoking lightly. He remained stand for a few moments before falling over dead. Naruto landed looking at Zabuza's dead body, shaking his head.

"Good job Holly," Naruto said quietly, to himself.

Naruto then walked over and picked up the body and left with it and the sword. As he left the scene with two figures looked down at him, one with increased hate and anger. While the other smiled, his target having been finally found, both vanished from the area. Holly had noticed the first one but not the second one, and reconsidered it as Zabuza's apprentice. Holly made a note to tell this to the others as she made her way back to the house to meet up with the rest of her team.
