Well, This Just Happened

Naruto sighed and said "Yes, that is exactly what I meant but do not worry, I shall assist your country in anyway possible" Haku nodded  "I shall tell Master Zabuza about this" Naruto chuckled and shook his head "Oh, no,  I'll be coming with you. For understanding purposes and a payment fee, up front and early" Haku hesitated, but heaved a sigh "Then, could you please wear a blindfold or something that will not reveal our location?" Naruto nodded and lowered his hitai ate.

Haku clasped his hand on the boys shoulder and sighed, he walked making a few twists and turns to confuse the boy but he had a feeling the boy already knew where they resided. Then, he shushined inside the base to see Zabuza looking up in surprise.

Naruto lowers his hitai ate, so it is now hang from his neck.

"Hello, Zabuza it is nice to meet you again"

"Haku! What the hell is this?!"

Haku bowed his head in apology. "I apologize, Zabuza-sama but Naruto-san here has offered us a deal that I think you may like"

<Meanwhile>

"Ah, Sasuke there you are! Have you seen Naruto?" The young Uchiha looked up at his sensei and sighed in annoyance "The dobe? I haven't seen him anywhere, he must've fallen asleep somewhere" Kakashi sighed restlessly, growing worried as minutes passed by. He hadn't seen Naruto earlier this morning and went searching for him but he couldn't even feel a single trace of his chakra! And him being with large pools of those, it seemed impossible. Where was Naruto?

[Insert Change of Scene Here]

Zabuza raised a non-existent eyebrow and asked "And, how do we know you're not lying and that your teammates are just outside of that door?" Naruto chuckled and crossed his arms "You wished, those teammates are not to be considered as such, if possible they'd abandon me at any chance they get. They would probably even use me as a sacrifice to save themselves one day" Haku and Zabuza exchanged a look with each other, and faced Naruto with a look of confusion. The blond gave a small smile and answered "Let's just say you're not the only one who's considered a demon" Haku gave an even more confused look, but Zabuza had a look of realization etched on his face.

Zabuza chuckled and lowered his head, "So, you want revenge huh?" Naruto looked away after shaking his head, the small smile on his face grew a tiny bit bigger "No, I have a master I wish to serve for the rest of my life, until my last breath... I hope to be his weapon.. His tool, so that I can fulfil my role in this life" Haku's eyes widen 'So, he's.. Like me?' Zabuza looked up and looked at the kid in surprise then started laughing. Naruto turned his head back to the pair, Zabuza calmed himself down and said "You sure are an interesting brat, sure I'll accept your offer" Naruto nodded.

Naruto threw a vial, which Haku caught. The ice user looked down at the vial which cpntained blood in it "What is this for, Naruto-san?" "It's for Uzushiogakure (Village Hidden by Whirling Tides) we the Uzumaki's are known for our seals. This is for you to get inside a building with a blood seal, it is also to confirm my identity as an Uzumaki" Zabuza nodded and asked "So, where's the money?" Naruto smirked and pulled his sleeve up, revealing a seal on his forearm pushing a bit of his chakra inside, out came a pouch. He threw it towards Zabuza who caught it and peered inside "Holy crap, kid where'd you get all this money?"

"Being an Uzumaki and a Namikaze has it's perks" The two froze and looked at the blond, Haku's mouth was slightly open, while Zabuza's shock was shown by his two eyes.
Then, the swordsman sighed "You know what, I don't even know how I'm gonna be surprised anymore after all this shit"

Naruto raised an amused eyebrow.
'Ah, but he will wouldn't he?' Naruto kept a straight face as the two in front of him talked.
'Kurama, I did not know you were awake'
The blond heard a yawn inside his head before the big fox replied 'I wasn't, just woke a few second before you told them about your heritage which was supposed to be a secret?'
Naruto inwardly chuckled 'I do, believe these two are trustworthy...you can trust me on this'

<Meanwhile>

"The brat sure is busy nowadays isn't he?" An unknown voice asked rethorically "Yes, I do believe so, but it is very unorthodox of him to be this late..." Another voice replied.

The first unknown voice chuckled and said "Oh, lighten up! It's only been four months in sure he'll send a letter soon" And, as if on cue a white fox jumped down from the trees. The first unknown voice chuckled once again and said "Speak of the devil and he shall appear.."
The second man moved forward, gently  - but impatiently- grabbing the letter in it's mouth. The white fox soon disappeared,qnd the two unknown men read the letter.

"Huh, so he's on a mission..Interesting"

"He said his sensei is Kakashi Hatake! I hope that man teaches him many things"

"Haven't you read? He literally said the man was lazy and only trained the emo Uchiha"

The second man growled and slightly crumpled the letter in his hands. Fist man sighs and said "Calm down, dude.." Then a twig snaps, both men stay calm and continue talking. Suddenly footsteps go, the newcomer was running away.
The second man handed the letter to first man while saying "I'll go dispose of him" And without being able to protest he disappeared.

[Back With Naruto and the Two]

"so, you've got two informants already?" Asked Haku, who sat on the chair crossed legged sipping tea next to Zabuza who was still sitting up, only this time the bandages on his mouth were gone and was sipping the same tea. The blond nodded "I cannot tell you their identity yet, but you will know in the soon future. I have already given you a map with marking"

Zabuza nodded, then suddenly stopped realising something "Wait a minute, isn't your team going to go looking for you?" "No" Haku hmmed in plain curiosity, before any of the two could ask he answered

"I am only a clone you see"

{Let's Rewind a Few Minutes To What Was Happening Somewhere Else}

Kakashi sighed for what seemed like the hundredth time today and it was only noon.
Still no sign of Naruto, he had searched the forest and everywhere else he could think of but no sight of the yellow knucklehead! He decided it was time to give up, then suddenly he heard a shout from inside the house. Panic rushed through him as he opened the door rather forcefully, almost breaking it but not quite.

Kakashi looked at the scene before him, Sakura was yelling at Naruto who sat at the couch with his arms crossed and a frown. Kakashi walked over to both of them and asked "Sakura, what's happening?" The pink haired banshee looked at her sensei and huffed annoyingly, she pointed at Naruto with her  finger accusedly and said "Me and Sasuke-kun have been looking for Naruto everywhere and then he suddenly appears out of nowhere! And has the audacity to ask what's wrong?! I mean can you believe it sensei?"

Naruto only looked at them, not saying anything which was weird. Unnatural. For Naruto to be quiet was.. Simply unbelievable.
Kakashi sighed "Sakura, calm down. Naruto, Sakura is partially correct where were you?"
The blond looked at them with a old piercing gaze that made them both shiver in fear "That is none of your business, I'll be going for now"
Naruto stood up and left them speechless.

Kakashi looked at Naruto's back, and now he noticed the slight rags on them. Maybe, Naruto was doing something personal? He sighed, he should probably report this to Hokage-sama. After all it is his mission to keep the an eye on the boy.
