Narcia= that sure was a long trip

Kurumi= it wasn't that bad 3

Narcia= yea well I don't like sitting around on a boat so long

Kurumi= hehe

Narcia= so down to business where do we find directions for this place that was looking to hire us

Kurumi= hmm… oh I see a pub over there maybe we can find some Intel there.

Narcia= I suppose, let's go

They both enter the bar with was full of different kinds of thugs. they went to speak to the bartender –

Narcia= excuse me could you gives us some directions?

Bartender= hmm? You folks are not from around here are you?

Narcia= no we've travel from far away

Bartender= I see, so where are you headed?

-Narcia showed the address that was written in the letter she had received.

Bartender= yes I know that place is not far away just head northeast you will see a road that divides in a fork, take the middle road and you should see the place.

Narcia= thank you for your help

Bartender= I don't know what kind of business you have there but be warned people around here don't take to kindly to foreigners specially of a different kind.

Narcia looked at the bartender and then turned around and leaved while kurumi was bit confused at the man's words –

Kurumi= narcia what did he mean by that?

Narcia = he meant our race is not welcomed by many here

Kurumi= oh

(Note both narcia and kurumi are elf's, not tiny elf's, normal size)

They both continued on and reached the fortress in a few hours –

Thug guard= halt who goes there?

Narcia= is this the fortress of Wind?

Thug guard = a woman? Who are you?

Narcia= My name is Narcia Striker and this is my Partner Kurumi Striker we are mercenaries and were sent this letter saying that our services were going to be hired.

Thug guard= let me see that letter

-Narcia hand him the letter –

Thug guard= all right please follow me

They followed the guards to the main chambers of the fortress –

Thug guard = wait here

The guard enters the chambers-

Thug guard= Lord Clint the mercenaries are here

Lord Clint= bring them in

Narcia and kurumi both enter –

Lord Clint= 2 weman's?

Thug guard= yes sir their the mercenaries

Lord Clint = I asked for strong people not weaklings!

Narcia spoke –

Narcia= if you think were so weak then test us

Lord Clint = who do you think you are woman

He stands up and looks at narcia with anger –

Lord Clint= those ears… what are you?

Narcia= that is none of your concern

Lord Clint = let's see how strong you two are – snaps fingers and 10 guards enter the chamber-

-Narcia smiles –

Narcia= lets show them how strong a woman can be kurumi

Kurumi= yea!

They both attacked 5 guards each and with ease defeated them all –

Lord Clint = it seem you are strong after all, I'm impressed.

Narcia= well since your impressed and all mind telling us why you want to hire us?

Lord Clint = ah yes you see we have been fighting to keep our fortress form enemy's that wish to take it from us and our Intel shows that they will be sending leaf shinobi as their last attempt to regain this fortress.

Narcia= leaf shinobi?

Lord Clint= they are ninjas from the village hidden in the leafs

Narcia= strange name. So how long till they attack?

Lord Clint = most likely within a day or 2

Narcia= I see. Tell us were you will station us and we will carry out our job then.

Lord Clint= you will guard the door to this room as our last line of defense as most likely they will be after me.

Narcia= very well, and our payment will be?

Lord Clint= I will pay you 500,000 ryo if you do your job right

Narcia= Ryo?

Lord Clint= It's this land currency; it is worth a lot what I'm paying you.

Narcia= all right, let's go kurumi

Kurumi= right

Narcia and kurumi both went to their stations and guarded the doors to the chambers –

Thug guard = sir are sure about paying them that much?

Lord Clint= you idiot as soon as their job is over were going to dispose of them

Back with naruto and hinata who stopped to rest for the day so they could attack at night –

Naruto = hey hinata how come were stopping? I'm not tired yet

Hinata= naruto we need to be ready for this assassination and our best chances are to attack during the night

Naruto= o I guess your right

They put up a tent and rest down –

Naruto= wish it was night already I don't like to…*yaaawn*… zzzzzz

Hinata= hehe he's sleeping already?

-Hinata exists the tent – I better practice a bit before resting up

- Hinata then heads out away from the tent to not wake naruto while she trains –

- Few minutes later naruto wakes up -

Naruto= *yaaaawn* I got to go

He heads out the tent and takes a leak in the forest not far from where they put up the tent –

Naruto= aaah couldn't hold it in anymore

He hears a waterfall nearby and zips his pants up-

Naruto= what's that sound?

Naruto follows the sound –

Naruto= oh it's a waterfall

He then notices something in the front of the waterfall. A figure of a woman. As the woman moved around the water, the water moved around her in a form of a sphere shining brightly –

Naruto= wow it's beautiful, who is she?

Naruto stood there watching as the water continued to move around the woman and it shined even more when the moonlight was not blocked by the clouds. Then the water started falling down as the woman remained still witch due to the moonlight still shining the image of the woman was beginning to be seen –

Naruto= T…that's – speaks loudly – HINATA!?

Hinata notices the voice and turns around –

Hinata= N…n…naruto!?

She then remembers that she's naked –

Hinata= KYAAA!

Hinata run away behind a rock -

Hinata= what are you doing here naruto!?

Naruto= s…sorry hinata I didn't know you were here I just had to go to the bathroom and then I saw this waterfall and didn't think you were here…naked…

Hinata's face turned completely red of embarrassment –

Naruto= honest I...I didn't mean to peek I just saw something… beautiful…. moving in the water I didn't know it was you.

Hinata= (he thought I was beautiful?)

Naruto= hinata?

Hinata= n...naruto pl….please leave…. i... need to get my ….clothes…. im freezing.

Naruto= I can get them for you if you want

Hinata=NO! , I… mean i will do it…please leave

Naruto= o…..ok

Naruto leaves and hinata dries up and gets dressed and meets naruto in the tent and they both laid on the beds not looking at each other with a blush look on their face -

Night came and they both continued on to infiltrate the fortress. They soon reach the fortress and made a plan –

Naruto= hinata about earlier….

Hinata= n...naruto maybe that should be left for another time….

Naruto= o….right…

(Meanwhile inside the fortress)

Kurumi= hey narcia

Narcia= yes?

Kurumi= uhm I'm not sure about this job

Narcia= because of the shinobi?

Kurumi= no not that, our client I don't trust him

Narcia= why's that?

Kurumi= I'm not sure but I get a bad vibe from him

Narcia= well were mercenaries we can't be to choosy about our client

Kurumi= I know but we should be careful

Narcia= don't worry I'm always on my guard even to our own client.

(Back to hinata and naruto)

Hinata= that's the plan all right?

Naruto= all right captain.

They both enter the fortress while hiding between the shadows to not make unnecessary contact with the enemy. As they went up the fortress they carefully examined every room around every floor until they reached the 14th floor and noticed to guards in front of a very large door –

Hinata= naruto I think that's where the boss must be

Naruto= only 2 guards this will be easy

Hinata= wait naruto

As naruto steps one foot in the hallway he is quickly hit by a sonic boom –

Naruto= arg

Hinata= naruto!

The guard passed by hinata with incredible speed -

Naruto= what just hit me?

He opens his eyes and sees in front of him very close the point of a sword –

Naruto= *gulp*

Narcia= so you're the leaf shinobi we were order to defeat?

Naruto= you caught me by surprised

A puff a smoke appears and leaves a log were naruto was-

Narcia= a log?

Naruto appears behind narcia and tries to hit her but narcia quickly used the handle of her sword to hit naruto in the stomach –

Naruto= urg

Narcia= don't think I'm so easily tricked

Naruto= not bad but I'm just getting started, hinata you go get the boss I'll handle this one.

Hinata= ok be careful

Hinata runs toward the giant doors –

Narcia= kurumi!

Kurumi= Roger!

(Naruto vs narcia)

Naruto= all right get ready

Narcia takes her fighting stance –

Naruto= multi-shadow clone jutsu

20 naruto appear, but narcia remains calms without flinching –

Narcia= (he multiplied? Or are they illusions?)

Naruto= let's go!

5 naruto's begin attacking and narcia's quick movements destroyed 4 of them –

Narcia= (so their illusions? … no I think there's more to it)

Narcia then lets the naruto clone attack her but still defending, witch her sword and the kunai clash –

Narcia= (hmm so their real but their just copies that disappear when damaged I'll have to be on my guard)

The remaining 15 shadow clones attack narcia –

Naruto= let's get her!

The shadow clones attack her 1 by one without letting narcia more than a sec to react but she quickly dodge, block and counter attack the shadow clones and destroyed them one by one –

Naruto = this is going to be harder than I though

Narcia attacks the real naruto doing her slash combo but naruto just barely was able to dodge each strike, he then jumps back and summons 20 more shadow clones to attack narcia which she one by one keeps destroying. While naruto's clones where being destroyed he charged up a rasengan with help of one of his clones. He then with the help of the clones was thrown to narcia –

Naruto= take this!

As narcia destroyed a shadow clone the puff of smoke created by its destruction gave naruto the surprise he needed –

Naruto= Rasengan!

The rasengan collided with narcia's armor in the stomach and she got send flying away by the rasengan and into a wall at the end of the hallway –

Narcia= urg!

She fell to the floor and coughed blood. Cause of the rasengan the armor around the section of her stomach was damaged and almost completely destroyed –

Narcia= dam

Narcia began standing up and naruto dash towards her to attack her again but as she got up she swinged her swords twice rapidly creating double sonic boom but naruto was able to dodge them just in the nick of time, however….. –

Hinata = aaahhh!

Naruto looked back –

Naruto= hinata!

(Hinata vs kurumi)

-hinata ran to the door were kurumi was still standing guard and she took out a kunai to attack –

Kurumi= you won't get passed me

-Kurumi got in her fighting stance and hinata jumped and attacked her –

Hinata- hyyaaa

Hinata's kunai and kurumi sword collided and both kept attacking each other over and over each defending each other's attacks –

Kurumi= she's good

Kurumi jumps back and swing her sword creating a sonic boom witch hinata dodges and then she throws her kunai which kurumi was able to block on time –

Hinata= she's good. Byakugan!

Kurumi= what happen to her eyes?

Hinata= gentle fist: palm heel strike

Kurumi= what?

Hinata hits kurumi on her chest witch knocks her back a bit –

Kurumi= urg, what was that? It felt like it went through my armor

Hinata= even with your armor my gentle fist can penetrate it

Kurumi= (this isn't good I should attack from a distance)

Kurumi jumps further back and releases 4 sonic booms –

Kurumi= (she can't evade them all)

-The sonic boom where heading straight to hinata –

Hinata= Protective 8 trigram; 64 palms guard

All 4 sonic booms were deflected and send back –

Kurumi= what!?

Kurumi quickly used her swords to guard herself from the returning sonic booms but was only able to block 3 because the 3rd knocked her swords away and the 4th hit her send her flying a bit back –

Kurumi= urg

Kurumi slowly got up holding her stomach –

Hinata= it's over your in range

Kurumi= urg in range?

Hinata= gentle fist … 8 trigram 64 palms!

Kurumi= n…not again…

Hinata= 8 trigram 2 palm!...4 palm!...8 palm!...16palm!…32 palm!...64 palm!

Hinata's 8 trigram 64 palm send kurumi flying back and hit against the wall of the hall way –

Kurumi: urg

Kurumi falls to the ground –

Kurumi= *cough* I…I can't move

Hinata= its over you won't be able to move for hours.

Right after that hinata was hit by 2 sonic booms on her back –

Hinata= ahhhh

Naruto= hinata!

Hinata was hit on the back with 2 powerful sonic booms witch send her flying hitting against the wall sideways and losing consciousness and landing next to kurumi-

Kurumi= that attack. It must have been narcia's

Naruto= you bastard!

Narcia was still weak form the rasengan hitting her –

Narcia= * breaths heavily* dam I took a lot of damage form that attack

Naruto= you'll pay! – Naruto's chakra of the nine tails was beginning to envelop his body and his hair nail grew and his wounds began to heal –

Narcia= what is that?

Naruto then jump forward with incredible speed –

Narcia= what!

Naruto punched narcia in the face breaking the wall behind her alerting all the guards outside. Narcia then hang from the outside edge of the wall of the fortress and one of her swords had fallen down so she could hold on and not fall to her death while her other hand still held on to her other sword-

Narcia= dam this is bad

-Naruto stood in the hole his punch made looking down on narcia in anger –

Narcia= ( how did he move so fast?)

Then guards spotted naruto –

Guards = there he is the intruder

Naruto= tch I better get hinata out of here

Naruto then quickly grabs hinata and carries her to somewhere safe and stays hidden –

Guards= quickly find the intruders

Narcia then tries to lift herself back in –

Narcia= urg

With a lot of effort she was able to get back in with the last of her strength before she couldn't move anymore –

Narcia= *breaths heavily * how did he….. became that strong… and fast all of a sudden…. and what was that red….. energy around him…

The guards kept on searching for naruto but couldn't find him or hinata –

After 2 hours of search narcia's and kurumi's body were put in front of Clint since they were too weak to move themselves –

Lord Clint= I see you've failed to stop the leaf shinobi

Narcia: I apologize they were stronger than I though

Lord Clint = no excuses you failed your job, we will no longer be using your services, I knew a woman couldn't be trusted with this.

Narcia= tch. Very well we will leave as a soon as were able to walk again.

Lord Clint= no

Narcia= what?

Lord Clint= for failing your job you'll be going to the dungeon

Narcia= why you, this wasn't part of our agreement

Lord Clint= I rule here I can do as I please.

Narcia= you will pay for this.

Lord Clint= guards take this woman to the dungeon

Guard= what about this other one?

Lord Clint = I think I'll keep her as my servant

Narcia= you bastard leave her alone

Lord client= quiet! Take her away

Kurumi= narcia….

Kurumi and narcia hands were cuffed and narcia was sent to the dungeon while kurumi's equipment was removed and she was left with the clothes she was wearing underneath -
