Chapter 5: meeting of the demons and the beautiful snow maiden

We now see the two teams after Kakashi had interrogated the demon brothers and the mission became an A-Rank we see the two teams of shinobi getting off the row boat and onto shore.

"Man there's a lot of mist here, I can't see a damn thing." Says Kiba squinting through the fog to try and see through it. "My bugs can't see very far in this fog, and some of them can't come back, this is bad." Says Shino worryingly, not liking that he lost bugs to the fog. "Not even the Byakugan can pierce through it." Says a slightly scared Hinata.

"Man, if you guys are having that much trouble seeing, then you got to train harder." Says Naruko nonchalantly walking past them. When the team was a bit away from the village the twins began hearing the sound of whirling.

"Get down!!" Yells Naruto as he makes Tazuna and Hinata get down as the others get down with only Naruko jumping above the blade as it lodges into a tree. "Well well well, seven kids and two Jōnin-." As he was about to talk more Naruto got right in his face and tried to slash at him, the man who spoke dodged the attack and kicked Naruto back to the others but Naruto didn't seem phased by the attack.

'What the hell is this kid, he shrugged off that attack like it was a love tap.' "Looks like your hunch was right about the village but not the swordsman sis!" Says Naruto with a bit of a chuckle. "SOUL KING FUCKING DAMN IT!!" Everyone was surprised that Naruko sweared and Naruto was laughing his ass off when she was begging to have a hissy fit about the man not being the one she was asking for in the bet.

'What the hell is wrong with them, they're facing an A-level missing ninja and they're not worried!?' The man thought this before looking at the girl. 'That one is obviously using a transformation technique to hide her true appearance, let's change that.' As he thinks this he throws a special Senbon needle at Naruko with a tag placed on it as it hits her the transformation is undone as we now see a male Naruko standing where Naruko was originally.

"What the hell, did he use some sort of dimension swapping seal to swap Naruko with a male version of herself!?" Says a worried Kiba. As soon as Kiba stopped yelling Naruko curled up into a ball and began to have a panic attack.

"You're dead, Zabuza Momochi." As Naruto says this a pressure begins to push down on everyone except the male Naruko as Naruto begins to walk towards Zabuza. "Like you're one to talk!" As Zabuza dashes at Naruto he slashes at him, but instead of going clean through Naruto, the sword stopped, not even piercing Naruto's skin.

As Naruto reaches for his Tanto, Senbon needles are lodged into Zabuza's neck as he falls over, then a figure in a hidden mist mask appears and grabs Zabuza's body and looks at Naruto.

"...You're one tied to honor, you should leave, now, Anbu." As Naruto says this the two mist ninja disappear, when Naruto turns to the male Naruko he walks over to him and takes the Senbon out of his hair and hugs him.

"Shhh shhh shhh it's okay, you're not gonna get hurt." Says Naruto comforting the boy. "But he-." "Shhh, just reactivate your transformation and calm down sis." As Naruto says the last part all the ninja are shocked, especially Kiba. "Th-that's the real Naruko?" Naruto looks at Kiba seeing the confusion and heartbreak in his eyes. "Birth wise yes, but she doesn't like her true look and uses her transformation to feel better." Kiba was absolutely confused by that explanation.

"Gender Identification, she was born male, but prefers to be female." As this is said all the ninja turn to the voice finding out BC was there with a very tall woman, with a weird skull with arrows going through it. "Oh the pour dear, she must feel like she's trapped." "BC!?" Says the twins in shock.

"You know this guy!?" Says Sasuke with him now ready to fight when needed. "Well I did help them train till they got to the academy, how else would you expect for them to be so adaptable?" Says BC with a smile tho his eyes were hidden from view. "What are you doing here BC, and who's the woman beside you." Says Naruko who hasn't used her transformation jutsu to transform. "I'm Emporio Ivankov, or Iva for short, and I have come to free you of your prison little lady."

As the twins look into her eyes they only saw truth in her words. "W-will it hurt?" Says Naruto scarred about the pain she might endure. "It'll just be a one and done thing, all though it will feel weird, and I got a change of clothes for ya kid." As BC says this he holds up a uniform for Naruko that was clearly made for a girl.

As Kurenai steps forward and looks at the two. "As her sensei I have jurisdiction to watch over this process, along with being a woman as well." "Well of course you need to, for a lot of reasons that I don't want to get sent into the ground for, though only two of you would be able to do that."

As the girls and Naruko walk off Kiba looks at Naruto. "So...mind explaining...all...that?" Says a very shocked Shino who didn't know Naruko was using a transformation jutsu on herself. "She felt that being a boy was like a prison, and decided to use a transformation jutsu to feel freer."

"But, she's the same person that we know and..." Says Kiba but chokes on the last word. "Kiba, tho she may have been born a male, she's still the same person she always has been, hopefully with this, she's freed from her prison." "...Will she hate me if I confessed here and now?" Says a worried Kiba. "Do that and I'll rip out your tongue!"

"Yep, definitely a do it not in front of him moment Kiba." Says a chuckling BC. "... You have lost my trust BC." "Oh when have I ever been able to make you trust me out of battle?" As BC said this Naruto flips off BC, but then gets hit with a slipper to the head.

As everyone looks to where it came from we see Naruko with her arm out stretched and now a true woman. "Naruto, how many times do I have to tell you that I don't need that much protection?" As Emporio Ivankov walks to BC they both disappear by getting swallowed by the shadows under them.

"Why did you have to hit me with a slipper Tomato!!" Says a angry Naruto. "What the fuck did you call me fishcake!!" As soon as they stare into each other's eyes they begin to fight each other. "This, this will never change will it." Says Shino now with a visible sweat drop. "No, I don't think so." Says a dumbfounded Sasuke.

Time skip to when the teams meet up at Tazuna's house and meet both Tsunami and her son Inari. "You guys are idiots, no one can beat Gato and his men. You're just-ow!" As he was about to finish his second sentence Naruto walks over to his and hand chops his head. You're the idiot that thinks that we're nothing but stupid idiots, well Kiba being the exception but that's besides the point." As Naruto says this we can see Kiba struggling to get out of Naruko's grip as he swears to hurt Naruto, knowing that he has no chance in effectively killing him.

"Hahahahahahahaha! Oh Kiba you should look at your face, it's so red that your marks are hidden hahahahahahaha!" As Naruto says this almost everyone begins laughing at this and Inari looks at Naruto. "And how do you plan to defeat Gato!?" Yells Inari mad that they're laughing in this dire situation. "Well, I did make his top assassin run with his tail between his legs."

Time skip three days and Tazuna is working with his crew and Naruto sees someone in the distance. "Sensei, contact on the southwest side, moving in to intercept." As Naruto approaches the figure they are looking straight at Naruto and not the bridge. "So, why are you here?" Says Naruto crossing his arms. "I came to make a deal with you." Says the figure now stepping out the shadows and revealing themselves as a beautiful woman in a kimono with black hair. She's the Anbu from a few days ago.' "So, what kind of deal are you proposing?" Says Naruto, his guard not fading. "My master's employer is planning on betraying him and killing him by sending a letter to the new Mizukage, and I want to save him." Naruto just raises his eyebrow. "So this is a enemy of my enemy deal?" "You-wait you, you didn't refuse?" Says the woman. "Uh duh, even though your master broke my sister's transformation, I don't go back on people in danger, but I am gonna make sure he literally pays for it, in cash." The woman bows in gratitude. "Thanks for your cooperation-uh." "Naruto, Naruto Uzumaki, one of the ten greatest sword users in the world."

Time skip to when Zabuza was brought to Tazuna's house and Naruto explained everything and that ninja from Kirigakure might come to kill the girl, who was known as Haku, for her ice type kekkei genkai. As he is done explaining his actions Naruko only sighs. "You know you're an idiot right?" "Hey you know how I am with people in danger, besides we don't know who the new Mizukage is!?"

Kakashi steps in between the twins. "Naruto has a point to his reasons Naruko, we don't know what this new Mizukage will do when he gets the information about Zabuza having a student that has a kekkei genkai." As soon as he says this the twins sense something approaching the village. "Fuck me." Says Naruto with a defeated look. "Hehehehehehehe looks like you're going to be stuck with the snuggle bug for a while."

Says a smirking Naruko. "Shut up, sure I'm warm but it's your fault that she just tackles out of the blue when she sees me!" As Naruto says this, Naruko just flips him off.
