"Oh, what do we have here?, a lost teen, with some fancy clothes?. Hand all over your possessions if you want to live." The older gruff man demanded.

"Oya?, and what pray tell will you do if I said no?." asked Zed curiously.

"Then me, and my tool Haku will dispose of you." The gruff man said.

"Well make quick work of him Zabuza-sama." Haku said.

"Fufufufufufufu, bring it on Boya, let's see if you can defeat me." Zed said confidently.

"You asked for it, Kirigakure no jutsu!." Zabuza casted his hidden mist jutsu.

"Let me tell you the name of your killer little man. I am Zabuza, the bloody demon of the mist." Zabuza boasted.

"Oya, polite one are we?, You may call me Rukudo Zed, or just Zed." Zed introduced himself.

"Hehehe, this will be fun to see you squirm little man." Zabuza boasted

Chapter 2 Start

"Eight points" Zabuza's voice echoed in the silence.

"Larynx"

"Spine"

"Lungs"

"Liver"

"Jugular"

"Subclavian Artery"

"Kidneys"

"Heart"

"These points in the human body that if severed, the human will surely die" Zabuza said in complete conviction in his silent killer technique.

"Fufufufufufu, try your best boya, I'm waiting." Zed said in a calm manner further infuriating Zabuza.

"Hmp, you asked for it." Zabuza said as silently crawled behind Zed's blind spot, he slashed, and aimed for Zed's heart only to be surprised at his sword phased through him.

"Shit!, a genjutsu?, since when?, Kai!." Zabuza pumped as much chakra as much as he could.

"Fufufu, Now it's my turn." Said Zed in a confident voice.

"Five points" Zed's voice echoed in the silence.

"Sight"

"Hearing"

"Touch"

"Sound"

"Smell"

"These are the five senses of the human body that governs the senses of the brain, and a first class Illusionist such as myself can control these senses that are yours to a masterful degree, thus I can inflict your body irreversable damage if I so choose. Your life now lies in my hands." Zed explained calmly.

"Shit!, a real piece of work like the Uchiha's, and he didn't even use handsigns, Kai!, KAI!, KAI!" Zabuza pumped chakra worriedly.

"Oya?, you seem to be pumping some sort of energy to expell my influence over you, too bad, That won't work. My hold on you is too strong, only a third rate illusionist would fall for that. Its to bad, so sad." Zed explained as Zabuza was slowly increased in ice slowly from the feet into the upper portion of his body.

"Creating something from nothing" Zed's Voice echoed in silence.

"And nothing from something."

"Thus, bewildering the enemy."

"Rendering the families true form intangible with the visions of deceit."

"That is the role of the guardian of the mist."

"Now what will you do little girly?, what will you do?." Zed asked Haku, as the surrounding scenery changed into a desert.

"Please, don't kill Zabuza-sama, he is my hope, my reason for living. I beg of you, take my life instead." Haku pleaded.

"Fufufu, very well child." Zed undid his illusions.

"Take care Zabuza-sama." Haku said his last farewell preparing for the moment of truth.

"Wait!, please don't take Haku's life, I may treat her like a tool but I love her like a daughter, she deserves a better life than being a missing-nin. Take my life instead." Zabuza pleaded.

During this moment touched Zed's heart. He finally realized that this was the famous Zabuza Momochi, and the famous Haku Yuki from the world of Naruto. Certain images flashed through Zed's mind, and said the quote that Haku was famous for.

"You can only be truly strong if you protect someone precious to you." were the words that left Zed's mouth.

Haku was shocked, someone other than her, that valued his precious people like her appeared before her in the prescence of the enemy.

"Very well, I shall spare both your lives. Always treasure what you have. You will never truly value whats precious to you untill it is truly gone. Take good care of each other." Zed said as he began to walk away.

On Zed's retreating back the two ninja saw an image of reliability, and hope in the eyes of Haku, and Zabuza. Never before in this cruel cycle of hatred in the ninja world had someone showed them compassion. It was then, and there that both missing-nin decided to follow this man before them.

"Wait, take us with you, You who spared our lives, and one who is strong, and a charismatic character, lead us lost lambs to salvation." Zabuza said flatteringly.

Zed stopped in his tracks, He could not believe what had happened. The famous tragic duo that would met a tragic end in the Naruto series was asking him to lead them.

This could severely change the story, and plot for Naruto, but then again, this could be an alternate Naruto universe. Zed gathered up his thoughts, and went with his gut feeling.

"Very well, but I do have a favor I want to ask." Zed asked.

"What is it Zed-sama?." asked Zabuza.

"I want to learn to access chakra, I know that at my age it would be impossible to reach the heights of a Kage level chakra. I would be at either Chuunin or Jonin at best to master my chakra coils, but that is enough for me to learn the basic bunshin, henge, and Kawarimi. Truthfully I can take care of myself without it, but seing as I need to keep up with veteran ninja's. I need to learn tree walking, and water walking. Oh and just call me Zed, no need to be formal." Zed explained

"That will be easily done Zed, and your assumption is right, if you want to live in the ninja world, you have to learn those you mentioned in order to survive. You don't really need a super powered jutsu's as far as I'm concerned with your ability, but learning chakra does increase our chances of survival." Zabuza explained.

"Very well, from what I gathered, you became a missing-nin for a failed attempt to take the life of your Mizukage." Zed asked.

Zabuza was surprised on how this stranger knew that tidbit of information.

"You seemed informed for someone who don't even have access to chakra." Zabuza commented.

"I have my ways, a little birdie also told be that your mizukage is under a very strong genjutsu that changed his attitude, and started the bloodline purge. An S-class genjutsu." Zed explained.

"Really?, damn, I wish I could go back there and help the rebellion. Mei-chan could use the help." Zabuza said.

"Tell you what, after you open my chakra coils, we will train for three months, and aid the mist rebellion." Zed explained.

"Really?, that's great. With you by our side, it should topple the balance in our favor." Zabuza commented.

Zed's POV:

Three months quickly passed by, and I learned to tree walk, and water walk, as well as the art of enhancing my body with chakra along with the mastery of the academy jutsu's that I can do without hand seals.

Zabuza, and Haku also put me through the depths he'll in training with taijutsu, but when they were going overboard I used my Asura path that increased my abilities.

The duo were were shocked that I had a doujutsu. I explained to them that it is somewhat necessary to have trump cards hidden .

It was finally time that we went into Kirigakure.

It took three days to reach to reach the rebel base. We were greeted with ninja's, luckily we had Zabuza to talk some sense into those shinobi, and we got a meeting with their leader.

"Its been a long time Zabuza-kun, finally decided to help I see." said the woman with a supermodel body.

"Hehehe, yup, you got it Mei-chan." Zabuza said.

®Mei Terumi

Mei is a slender woman in her thirties. She has green eyes, and ankle-length, auburn hair styled into a herringbone pattern at the back, a top-knot tied with a dark blue band, and with four bangs at the front. Two bangs are short, with one covering her right eye, and two are long, crossing each other on her bust, just below her chin. She wears a long-sleeved, dark blue dress that falls just below the knees. It seems to be closed at the front with a zip, and is kept open on the front-right side from the waist down. The dress only covers up to the upper part of her arms and the underside of her , she wears a mesh armour that covers slightly more of her upper body than her dress. She also wears shorts in the same colour as her dress (a skirt in the anime) and, underneath those, mesh leggings reaching down over her knees. Around her waist, she wears a belt with a pouch attached to the back on the left along with high-heeled sandals and shin-guards reaching up over her knees, dark blue polish on her fingers and toes, and is usually shown with dark blue lipstick (fuchsia in the anime).

"I hope your skills haven't dulled Zabuza sempai." said the teenage boy.

"Good to see you, brat, I hope you have improved Chojuro." said Zabuza.

®Chojuro

Ch?j?r? has short, tufty blue hair, and dark eyes. He also has pointed, shark-like teeth; a trait that all known members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist as well as apprentices share. He wears square, black-rimmed glasses connected to ear protectors, a blue pin-striped shirt and camouflage pattern pants. Also, he wears his forehead protector on the front of his holster which he uses to carry Hiramekarei. The sword itself is wrapped in bandages leaving only the double hilt visible. He also has shuriken holsters strapped onto each of his legs

"Its good to see you finaly show some enthisiasm brat, and welcome back Zabuza, I see you brought some people with you." The man with the eyepatch said.

"Hmp, grumpy as usual I see Ao." said Zabuza.

®Ao

He was a middle aged man with blue hair which is styled in a moused-up manner. His left eye was blue and his right eye was covered by an eye-patch, under which he concealed the Byakugan that he obtained from a Hy?ga clan member he defeated. He wore a talisman in each ear with the kanji for a humble form of "to hear" (?, sh?, uketamawa(ru) ) written on them twice on each side. These talismans reacted when his Byakugan is under threat and will protect it from anyone, even himself. He also wore the standard striped, grey suit, with a green haori that had white trimmings that stop halfway down, over them.

"Allow me to introduce these two, the girl is Yuki Haku of the Yuki clan, she is my apprentice, and the boy is Zed." introduced Zabuza.

"Fufufu, it's nice to meet you all, my name is Rukudo Zed, Zed for short, I am but a humble civilian." Introduced Zed.

Haku, and Zabuza's jaw dropped at their friends introduction.

"How could you bring an innocent civilian here Zabuza-kun." asked Mei.

"That's low sempai, you know this is a rebel base." said Chojuro.

"Hmp, I know you'd gone soft, but not senile." chastised Ao.

"Gahh, that's not funny Zed, tell them your joking." Zabuza pleaded.

"But Zabuza sempai, I'm just a normal, and a little bit eccentric civilian." explained Zed.

"You really should stop that Zed-sama, you know you can defeat Zabuza-sama, who is an A rank missing-nin without breaking a sweat." explained Haku.

"Tell me that she is joking Zabuza-kun." Mei said.

"Yes, you can't fool me, his chakra is at a civilian level. Trust me, I'm a very good sensor." Ao explained.

"Fufufufu, I think that's enough fun for now." Zed said as the scenery changed into an ocean, startling everybody in the room.

"What just happened?, why are we in the ocean?, what kind of genjutsu is this?, KAI!." Mei said.

Everyone in the room were busy shouting Kai for a whole five minutes.

"I think that's enough fun for today Zed-sama, your scaring us." Haku said.

"Ahh your right Haku, please excuse this humble civilian in the flock of fully trained shinobi's for my antics." Zed said sarcastically as the scene changed to the normal room.

"What Just Happened?, In all my Years as a sensor ninja, I haven't seen anything like this, and I've met my fair share of Genjutsu specialists." Ao said.

"Sugoi!, Zabuza sempai brought someone Uber powerful." Chojuro happily said.

"Hehehe your very sneaky Zabuza-kun, for playing a prank on us, and he said he wasn't a ninja." Mei said.

"But I'm not, I've only unlocked my chakra, and trained in the ninja arts with Zabuza-sensei for three months, technically I never lied." Zed explained.

"Ohh a humble one are we, welcome to the mist rebellion Zed-san." Mei said.

"Well talk to you guys tomorrow, I'll send someone to escort you to your rooms." Mei said.

Zed's POV:

We were brought to our room, and I rested for a bit, then I decided to explore. I reached the training grounds, and saw serious shinobi training.

Gossip began to fill the air.

"Hey did you hear?, Zabuza of the seven swordsman of the mist has decided to join us."

"Yeah, I heard He brought an apprentice".

"Yeah, I also heard He brought along a civilian with eccentric clothing, why would they bring a useless civilian along?."

"I bet I could take him."

"Hey there he is now, let's show him that this is no place for a civilian."

Fifty chuunin and Twenty jonin suddenly swarmed me.

"Hey you, this is no place for a civilian, get out of here. " the jonin said.

"Yeah!, get out of here!." The other ninja said.

"Really?, well how about, you show this humble civilian how its done eh?." Zed said further provoking the ninjas.

Far away from view, Mei, Ao, Chojuro were watching.

"Shouldn't we stop this Mei-sama?." asked Chojuro.

"No, well find out how capable that person is." Mei replied.

Back at Zed, three taijutsu specialist swarmed Zed.

"This is your funeral, civilan." Said the shinobi as the group attempted to to punch zed in his gut and kicked him at his back at the same time, but slowly disappeared into the mist.

"Oya?, when will you teach me, Ninja-kun?." said teasingly

"Shit!, a genjutsu, KAI!." said the ninjas.

Zed pretended that his hold was stoped, and he appeared meters away from the taijutsu specialists ninja.

"Oya?, I guess it's my turn, Chikush?d?!."Zed said as his right eye glowed the number three as poisonous snakes, and rabid dogs suddenly appeared before the group, and attacked them.

"Its Just a genjustsu, Kai!, KAI!". the ninja said.

"Shit, their real, Katon: Gokakyu no Jutsu (Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique)." the ninja said.

"Crap!, get these snakes of of me, Suiton: Suigadan (Water Release: Water Fang Bullet)." another ninja said.

Scenes like this were the same from the army of shinobi's in the training field.

"Are you guys done?, don't make me do something drastic." said zed seriously.

"Never, now that it's come to this, we will never give up untill we show you a lesson." said the ninja, and the others agreed.

"Fufufu, very well, I will acknowledge your bravery, and show you some of my skills." Just as Zed said that, an army of seventy zed appeared on the battlefield.

"What!, It's just genjutsu, Kai!, KAI!." The ninja's said but to no avail.

"Fufufu, this will teach you not to harm civilians." Zed said as his mist clones attacked.

"Fuck!, your no civilian." shouted the ninja's.

"Your joking, didn't you guys say that I am a humble civilan earlier, and decided to gang up on me?." Zed teased.

The ninjas attacked, but their attackes phased through the clones, and they reformed to make a solid strike back at them.

"Fufufufu, Allow me to explain why you guys lost." Zed's voice echoed in the training area.

"Illusions or real illusions."

"Within the illusions hide the real illusions."

"From the real Illusions, the Illusions are created."

"Within the truth, hides the lie."

"Within the lie, hides the truth."

"This is the mist."

Zed finished explaining as the group of ninja's lay defeated against his feet.

"Fufufufufufufu, that will teach you to mess with a civilian." Zed chastised the group and left.

"Mei-sama, did you see that?." asked Chojuro.

"I see it, but I dont believe it." Mei said in disbelief.

"Shit!, that's one fucked up civilian, remind the troops not to mess with him, least they suffer the same fate." adviced Ao sagely.

"I need a rest, see you guys later." Mei said.

"I can't slack off now, if this is a civilian that can run around laps around our forces, I'm afraid of the future." said Chojuro.

"I'll go train with you." said Ao.

Rumors quickly spread around the base, and the ninja's avoided Zed like a plague.

"I wondered what happened to them." Zed said his thoughts out loud.

Later that evening a confused, and bewildered Zabuza, and Haku was suspicious at the rebels attitude towards Zed at dinner when the shinobi's were giving a look at Zed with the feeling with fear, awe, and respect.

"Did you do something gaki?." asked Zabuza directed at Zed.

"Not a thing." Zed said cheerfully.

In sorrounding Shinobi in the area, they unanimously thought one thing

"Bullshit!." we're their thoughts on Zed's carefree reply.
