A/N: Hey guy's! I know your thinking What the Flip flop about Kuro, the spirit, but it will be brought into the light in this mission. I know that many people came to see this as a dark fic and it is but the worst part that's gonna be changing happens in the end of this chappie. This Chapter will cover the whole Wave mission. The Chunin exams are gonna be split into three parts and the Retrival ark will be split into two. Im also gonna do my best in the Retrival ark and Chunin exams as well as this one as to giving you all a very decent fight. I know im not good at this but I am steadily getting better and am hoping you will stick with me to the end. Now the important thing is that Darkness Falls, Bruning Leaves, Makkana, and Hell's School will all be put on hold after the next release of each, not counting Makkana as ive already updated it twice. I will post two chapters of the other three and than stop till I have the poll results ready. Remember that if only one person votes it will be up to them what YOU read from ME. As for the Sasuke misspell I am not going to fix as it was on purpose. I am going to continue to the story now. Till the end.

'Dumb human' Kuro thinking
Naruto was the first to the Northern Gate. He decided since it was gonna be a while for his team to be there and the client wouldn't be there till the allotted time he decided to Meditate on top of the gates.
Naruto stood up in his mind and looked at the large cage infront of him. Kurama eyed him dangerously and just yawned.
"Hey Kurama how've you been?" The large fox looked at him.
"Fine and I have something important to tell you that cant be put off. Your friend Kuro, the one in here, he" Kuro walked into the room and gave a huge smile to Naruto.
"Naruto my boy, what are you doing in here I thought you had to go on a mission?" Naruto nodded and told them he did.
"Well why aren't you going with your team yet?"
"I got about two hours to kill waiting for Kakashi and I can sense the others right bellow me." Kuro nodded but Kurama just continued to give an intense glare at Kuro.
"Kurama whats up?" Naruto asked questioning him.
"Nothing Naruto, nothing at all."The last part was stated with venom in his tone of voice as his eyes narrowed at Kuro.
"I think you should come and train while you wait for Kakashi. Follow me." Kuro gave a nod to Kurama and Kurama sneered at the figure.
'This isn't over you monstocity.'
Two Hours Later
Naruto sits up from his meditative position and drops down to the team as soon as Kakashi's in sight. Sakura and Tazuna were surprised when Naruto dropped down in between them. Kakashi just smiled with his eye and nonchalantly waved to the group.
"YOUR LATE KAKASHI-SENSEI!" Kakashi sweat dropped as he just looked to the group of which three people were covering their ears.
"Ne ne, I'm sorry I got lost on the road of life." Sakura looked as if she was fuming but stopped when Naruto's hand landed on her shoulder and he nodded no. Sakura sighed.
'Kakashi-sensei is lucky Naruto stopped Sakura from busting Kakashi-sensei's ear drums eh Kurama.'
'He is Naruto I cant believe that this girl is so loud.' Naruto turned as the team left off.
The team were a mile down the main road when Kakashi noticed a puddle he decided to let his team try to take them down and if anything happened take the two men out. Kakashi and the group passed the two men when suddenly to the Genin two men in cloaks with big sharp gauntlets appeared and wrapped a spiked chain around Kakashi. When the men pulled all that was seen was chunks falling to the ground of what the Genin preceved to be what was left of Kakashi. The two men attacked Sasuke and Naruto but Sasuke was about to throw a shuriken when Naruto launched his Tanto into one of the loops and using his Chakra made a hilt guard large enough to pin the chain to a tree. Sasuke and Naruto charged but as soon as Sasuke got a kick to the face and Naruto sliced one of the man's legs off, Kakashi appeared and grabbed the men in a revers head lock. Kakashi pulled up and snapped their necks. Kakashi walks over to Tazuna.
"Tazuna-san we need to talk." As soon as Kakashi stated this Naruto fell to the ground with a deep wound on his back.
"KAKASHI-SENSEI HELP!" Kakashi turned and with a wide eye saw Naruto's wound. Kakashi was immediately over there to help him.
"Sakura grab my bag and find the large white box and bring it over here NOW!" Sakura scurried over as Kakashi ripped open Naruto's shirt and saw that the wound was extremely deep and didn't even have to look at the wound to see Naruto's spine had been damaged. Sakura arrived with the kit.
"Take out a needle and a small vial of Morphine, he's going into shock. TAZUNA GET OVER HERE!" Tazuna hurried.
"Give me your flask." Tazuna did so and flushed the alcohol over the deep wound. Kakashi observed that the Kyuubi wasn't healing Naruto.
'Damn it fox heal him.' Kakashi pleaded. He took the needle with 15cc's of Morphine and injected it into Naruto's vein on his arm. Sakura was frozen in fear and Sasuke actually looked as if he was gonna cry. Kakashi held preassure and felt Naruto's weak pulse and applied a coagulant to the wound but his body was rejecting it. Kakashi at this point was extremely worried. They heard footsteps and running and next thing he knew Kurenai and her team were there Hinata taking out some of her healing salve. Kakashi took it and smeared some on the wound and noticed as Naruto's temperature around the wound calmed down but he lost Naruto's pulse. He rolled Naruto onto Kiba's jacket that was on the ground and proceded to perform CPR. After five minutes Kakashi got a small pulse and the two Jonin bandaged the wound and set camp up with Naruto on a small bag of fluids. Hinata never left Naruto's side during the whole ordeal. Kakashi and Tazuna were 'talking' all around camp everyone heard the sound of a fist hitting flesh and turned to see Kakashi tear ridden and Tazuna on the ground nursing his cheek. Hinata came out of the tent and got the others.
"Kakashi-sensei, Kurenai-sensei he's waking up!" The two Jonin and four Genin rushed into the large tent and saw Naruto's eyes open weakly.
"Hey guy's whats up?" Kakashi just smiled and led his team over to Naruto and Sakura captured him in a hug while Sasuke did the same action. The two let go after Naruto hissed. Kiba came over and lightly bopped Naruto's head.
"You baka couldn't even stay out of a fight." Hinata captured Naruto in a hug that made him bleed a little. Shino just nodded and Naruto laughed a little but stopped as it hurt to much. Naruto nodded to Kakashi and Kurenai.
"I need to talk to you two alone." The two Jonin led the Genin out and sat down on either side of Naruto.
"I don't know why Kyuubi couldn't heal me and he himself said he didn't know what happened but it appears that something was blocking his chakra, something from the area with a large reach of its chakra." The two nodded.
"Naruto will you be ok?" Naruto nodded to Kakashi.
"Kyuubi got a hold of its chakra and I should be fine in a couple of days." The two Jonin sighed in relief. Kakashi got a serious face.
"We have to retreat to Konoha and get you to the hospital." Naruto shook his head.
"No sensei. I cant give up on this mission this mans family needs him, and I don't want to be responsible for him getting killed."
"But Naruto if you get killed it will be our responsibility." Naruto looked to Kurenai.
"Ill be fine by tomarrow my spine will be fine and by the next day all I will have is a nasty scar. It's ok Sensei's I will be fine." Kakashi nodded but Kurenai told them her team was staying with the two and sending Kiba since he was hurt back with Hinata as she had three broken fingers from a fall she took from a tree.
"In the morning the Hokage will have the message and we will wait for his response." Kakashi left and Kurenai just watched over the blonde till he fell asleep. She left for her tent but was stopped by Shino.
"Sensei I can tell we are going to be staying with Team Seven," Kurenai nodded, "I have to tell you that I support this action. I have been doing something that I was not proud of. I sent my bugs into Naruto's tent to do a little check up and I found there was a third chakra source in him and it was pushing the second chakra back while the second was trying to help Naruto." Kurenai nodded.
"My insects drew some of the dark energy out but they turned black and tried to attack me. Whatever is in Naruto as the third source is pure evil and is trying to hinder Naruto." Kurenai nodded and decided to talk to Kakashi in the morning about it. Kurenai just nodded and the two went to their tents and fell asleep with Kakashi taking his watch then alternating with Kurenai every hour.
Kiba and Hinata made it by day break and went straight to the Hokage's office. Kiba and Hinata banged on the door.
"Come in." The two Genin frantically entered the room and saw Sarutobi and his two teammates sitting down drinking tea.
"What is it children?" The two took a moment to catch their breath.
"It's- It's- Naruto he's hurt and we were sent to tell you that the remainder of our team has requested to assist Team Seven in getting Tazuna-san to his home." The two Genin bowed and Hiruzen nodded and said.
"return and tell them I have granted their request, now go to your team." The two Genin bowed and took off.
Next Day
Naruto woke up seeing Kakashi in the tent reading his book and hearing Kurenai doing drills with the five other Genin.
"Hey Naruto how are you?" Naruto sits up and only feels sore but still had bandages on him for his wounds.
"Im feeling better than yesterday how is everyone?" Kakashi sighed.
"Sakura and Kiba keep fighting, Sasuke and Shino play Shogi, and Hinata never leaves the tent." Naruto sighed and looked to Kakashi.
"It's going to be so hard telling her about Kuro-hime and I." Kakashi nodded and flipped the page.
"Kakashi-sensei I thought about it and if there were Chunin don't you think there are going to be Jonin next?" Kakashi sighed and nodded.
"I think so, so its lucky we will have Kurenai helping us." Naruto nodded and smiled.
"Everythings going to work out fine Kakashi-sensei. By tomorrow morning I will be all healed up and we can leave. Heck with the Kyuubi healing me as he is I could leave right now." Kakahsi smiled at this.
"Good cause were all packed and ready to go just get up and get dressed and we will leave." Kakashi left the tent and Naruto smiled.
'I knew they were going to leave, eh Kurama.'
' Yes Naruto at least we will be going and keep from being to noticed here.' Naruto nodded and finished strapping his sandals and tied his sword to his side. When Naruto left the tent he caught an orange that was thrown to him by Sasuke.
"Eat dobe so we can go." Naruto smiled and pealed the orange. Naruto ate and threw the peel away and the group set off.
The group was reaching the border of wave and decided to catch the boat. All of the ninja and Tazuna grouped on the boat and set off. When they saw an incomplete bridge they all knew it was the one Tazuna was building. When they reached port the group set off from the town headed towards Tazuna's town. They all stopped on the road when Naruto threw a kunai pinning a snow white rabbit to a tree. Naruto heard a noise and grabbed Tazuna and Sakura and took them down to the ground, Kakashi took Sasuke and Kiba, and Kurenai took Hinata and Shino to the ground just in time as a huge cleaver sword flew over their heads and embedded itself into a tree. The group got up but Naruto Sakura and Tazuna were all slammed in the stomach with a Bo staff and were sent flying back. Zabuza straightened up and saw the group and smiled.
"Zabuza Momochi, the Demon of the Mist."
"Well im honored the great Copy-nin Kakashi knows my name. Oh now We also have Konoha's Genjutsu Mistress as well, Chojuro it seems we have been honored with two of Konoha's finest." Kurenai sneered and threw a kunai at Chojuro as he licked his lips and smiled horrendously at Kurenai.
"Hey Zabuza do you mind if I take the two girls and the woman after we finish with them?" Zabuza smiled at seeing the two Genin shaking and surprisingly one of the male Genin shaking.
"Do as you wish Chojuro." Chojuro smiled and laughed a little and started towards Kurenai staff in hand. Kurenai snarled and leapt forward with surprisingly a knuckle blade.
With Kurenai and Chojuro.
Kurenai was struggling to keep Chojuro's Bo staff back and continuously blocked his strikes or leapt over them. Kurenai took a strike to the shoulder breaking her arm and managed to drive the knife into Chojuro's stomach only seeing him turn into water.
'Water clone shit.' Kurenai blocked a strike from the side to take a boot into the stomach. She striked out to her left and knicked the mans robe slicing him. Chojuro was charging and Kurenai stood defensively and brought out another knuckle blade. Chojuro attacked relentlessly and drove the end of his staff into her temple knocking her back and breaking her brow. Kurenai charged holding the two blades infront of her as the man made hand signs.
"Water style: Water Dragon Jutsu!" The man cried as the dragon flew at Kurenai taking her head on only to see her dissapate into sakura blossom's. Chojuro looked around then felt a knife drive into his kidney and he broke the Genjutsu. Kurenai smiled and tore the blade from him and he charged at her attacking with new speed and the hits were so fast one almost couldn't follow the staff. When he finished Kurenai fell and poofed. He felt another gash open on his leg and watched as another gash opened on his side. He stood up and jumped at her tackling Kurenai to the ground. He started punching her and after the twelfth hit she fell unconscious. Chojuro ripped her shirt open but then felt a knife through his chest curtousy of Kurenai who apparently had appeared on the other edge of the field fine and untoutched. Kurenai smiled.
"Hey bastard you were in a Genjutsu the whole time and now its time to die." Kurenai rushed forward and plunged her kunai into the mans heart. Kurenai looked up as someone screamed her name. Kurenai stood in fear as the Zabuza's blade fell towards her.
With Kakashi (beginning of the battle.)
"So Kakashi do you really believe that the bitch could defeat Chojuro?"
"I don't think so," Zabuza smiled at this, "I know so." Zabuza scowled as the two Jonin were throwing around jutsu left and right. Kakashi pulled up his headband revealing his Sharingan and charged forward with new vigor. Their weapons clashed with sparks. The six Genin watched the two battles and witnessed the power of Kakashi. Kakashi wordlessly summoned five shadow clones and proceeded to unleash an unstoppable barrage of strikes. Zabuza parried most but failed on the last and got slice open. Kakashi's clones dove in after him but seconds after they did he felt their memories come to him. Kakashi drew another Kunai and dove in to find Zabuza. After a minute of searching he found his target and charged. He slashed Zabuza only for him to disappear into a puddle of water. Zabuza's sword sliced straight through Kakashi and Kakashi turned into water. Zabuza felt a kunai cut him from behind and he jumped forward before it could be plunged into his body. Kakashi charged forward and slashed into Zabuza's sword only to block a kick thrown by Zabuza. Kakashi grabs his arm and electricity drives through it and into his other arm, soon the electricity covers him and his kunai sprout chakra from the end turning into a three foot electric blade.
"Do you like this Zabuza this is my third made jutsu. I made it just to deal with people of your talents." Kakashi slammed forward into Zabuza and Zabuza slashed at Kakashi. Kakashi brought his Sword up and it slices through Kubikiri.
"It's useless Zabuza I've never been stopped in this form and you wont stop me now." Zabuza's eyes widened as Kakashi slammed straight through him with his sword only for him to be showered by water quickly evaporating the water before it even touched him. Kakashi landed on the water and his technique died. Kakashi was out of breath and was soon caught by Zabuza's water prison technique. He see's one of Zabuza's Water clones charging at Kurenai as she finished off Chojuro.
"KURENAI WATCH YOUR BACK!" Kakashi screamed but by the time she noticed Zabuza was beginning his down swing. Zabuza was stopped by Naruto in an orange aura. He held his Katana out infront of him holding zabuza back like it was nothing. A tail sprouted from Naruto. Naruto slammed the clone in the gut and vanished. He appeared halfway between Kurenai and Zabuza.
"You shall be ended here Zabuza." Naruto brought his arms down by his left side gripping his Katana tightly and charged. Naruto slashed down at Zabuza only to be stopped by a water clone. The clone and Naruto were fighting on a level only seen by Kakashi and Kurenai. Naruto slashed diagonally zabuza dogged. Zabuza slung from left to right Naruto jumped and spun with a kick that spun Zabuza. Zabuza carried by momentum slashed at Naruto and Naruto spun with the blade and stabbed zabuza in the shoulder and jumped back. Zabuza gripping his arm ran forward driving his zanbatou upward narrowly missing Naruto. Naruto grabbed the sword with his tail and he shot a red energy hand at Zabuza. Naruto missed with the chakra arm and fell forward carrying Zabuza with him. The two fell of the side of the road and into a small quarry near them. Naruto slammed down into the quarry Zabuza on top of him. Naruto got up and threw Zabuza into the rock wall and drov a heel into his gut. Zabuza kicked out and drove his foot into Naruto's chin enough to snap his head back and send him flying. Zabuza grabbed his sword and charged forward ready to cleave the blonde as soon as he landed. Naruto sprouted a second tail. Naruto charged forward so fast Zabuza could barely keep up. Naruto's punch was stopped by Zabuza's sword's flat edge. Naruto was sent flying by the Jonin. Naruto's tails flew at Zabuza, being the only part of his cloak controlled by Kurama, the tails managed to rip the sword from zabuza's hands as the battle soon engaged into pure taijutsu. The two charged sending flurries of fists and feet at the opposite person only for each strike to be met with a counter. Naruto finally got through and slam,ed his heel into Zabuza's stomach and drove his other leg into his neck. Zabuza dropped but Naruto grasped Zabuza's head and through the forest you could here the loud snap as Naruto's legs were broken by a mask ninja. Kakashi appeared in the quarry with Kurenai and they saw what had just happened. Zabuza stood up and him and the masked ninja retreated. The two teams followed by Tazuna appeared with the kid.
"Naruto are you alright?" Sakura asked.
"Yeah give me a few minutes in this chakra and ill be healed." The bines self reset and healed after two minutes. Naruto stood up releasing the chakra and fell forward same with Kurenai and Kakashi. The five Genin caught the three ninja and proceeded to get them out of the quarry and arrive at Tazuna's house.
Naruto started to sit up only to be stopped by Kakashi.
"Stop Naruto unlike us you used much more chakra and to boot face a man that I couldn't beat with two tails of power from the Kyuubi. So just lay back, also you've been out for about a week and if im right you only have a week to train before Zabuza gets back. Kurenai is officially out of the fight as she is still knocked out and for some reason unresponsive, but she's healthy and getting better fast." Naruto nodded and laid back into his dreaming bliss.
Kakashi walked down the stairs and saw Sasuke and Kiba having an eating contest and he sat down to eat.
"Naruto is awake but give him a few more hours to rest and he will be fine by tomorrow." The Genin smiled except for Shino and Sasuke, which the later of the two scowled.
'That power should be mine not the dobe's' Sasuke grimaced and excused himself to go train for the night.
