Cultist hunting

Asuma : Listen up..., as you all already know we will be hunting a group of mass murdering cultists..., our job is very simple we find and kill them all.

Naruto : ...

ino : !!

Sasuke : !!

Rock lee : !!

Sakura : uuh

Neji : ...

Choji : !!

Ten ten : !!

shikamaru : !!..., you can't be serious.

Kakashi : you'll be in danger of death yourselves..., it's kill are be killed, that the life of a ninja, that's the path you choose when you entered the academy .

Might Guy : Kakaashi is right, we ninjas must get blood on our hands or your blood will be what covers the enemies hands and they won't hesitate to make sure that's the case so neither should you.

Kakashi then explained to the team how they planned on find the cult responsible for this killings. As the group was heading out kurenai and her team were just returning form a mission of their own. Asuma and kurenai hugged and kissed each other, as that was happening hinata walked over to Naruto and gave him a hug and wished him luck on their mission, Kiba looked on with a look of jelousy

Naruto : (looking at kiba with a condescending smile while hugging hinata) you know hinata, this could be the last time we see each other, hehe.

Hinata : (hugging Naruto tighter) D-don't even joke like that!!.

Hinata hugged Naruto for a couple second then realized that everyone was looking at them, she began to blush with a look embarrassment on her face as everyone had seen her display of emotions to Naruto. Kiba walked away his heart hurting knowing that his love for Hinata was unrequited.

Kiba : (crying) Why naruto..., (sob) hinata why would you choose that demon over me (sob).

After a while Kakashi decided to speak up to get everyone back to track (mainly asuma and naruto). As the team was taking their leave hinata grabbed naruto's arm stopping him from leave then kissing him on his cheek.

Hinata : (concerned look) Naruto, promise me you'll return unharmed.

Naruto : (blushing) Hinata, I'll be fine..., I promise.

Kurama : Naruto your face is as red as a tomato, Hahahahah!!, Hahahahahaha!!.

Naruto : (embarrassed angry) Sh-shut up you, you damn mutt.

Naruto quickly caught up to the other as they were a good bit ahead of him. Sasuke looked back at Naruto and a thought went through his mind.

Sasuke : ("This is Naruto now..., I can tell just by looking at him..., he's on a entirely different level compared to me").

This thought pissed sasuke off as even with his new eye's he was still way behind Naruto, Naruto who was the class failure was now the most powerful of his graduating class. Naruto noticed sasuke's gaze and shot him a glare that cause sasuke to loose his rhythm and miss his footing on the tree branch, just as he was falling to the floor sasuke grabbed on to the tree branch and used it to sling himself forwards regaining his proper footing, looking over he saw Naruto giggling to himself which got under sasuke's skin.

Sasuke : (gritting his teeth)...("bastard").

Sakura : Are yo- !!

Ino : Are you okay, sasuke.

Sasuke without looking at ino respond with a bit of anger in his voice

Sasuke : tch..., I'm fine!!.

The team arrived at most recent town to be attacked, the town was completely wrecked there was burning houses, broken doors, smashed window and blood everywhere. as they walked through the town the found bodies that were not yet removed by the leaf. sasuke was shaken up by the sight as it forced him to relive his clans slaughter. Rock lee, ten ten and choji began vomiting.

Guy : I know how you kids feel, I vomited my first time too..., you'll get use to these sights after awhile, you don't have a choice really, you just have to numb yourselves to things like this.

Kakashi : now that we found a body we can use it to find the culprits.

SUMMONING JUTUS!!

Kakashi performed a few hand signs and slammed his hand onto the ground, a puff of smoke appeared and quickly began to vanish revealing a pack of five dogs.

Dog with ninja head band : yo kakashi, you haven't summoned us in a while, what's up.

Kakashi : I'm in need of your skills, old friend.

Kakashi proceeded to explain the situation to the dogs so that they could help track down the group responsible. The dogs began sniffling the body.

Dog with ninja head band : Sniff, Sniff..., !! kakashi, I got something but it's faint.

He then toke running with his gaurd dogs, kakashi and the other following closely behind. He then stopped in the center of the town were hundreds of bodies were piled on top of one another. They all looked on in horror as man, woman and child of all age were piled up and put on display infornt of a massive symbol drawn in blood.

Ten ten : Oh my god... uuuhkk

Ino : this is sick..., this is in human

A cold chill ran up the kids spine as they looked on at the piled up bodies of dead man, women and children of all ages.

Dog with ninja head band : Sniff, Sniff, Sniff..., Their is a multitude of scents gathered here, sniff, sniff..., this way.

They all toke off running, as the group followed the ninja dog's lead they came across similar symbol cravings onto random trees. As the team traveled Naruto had a feeling of deja vu.

Naruto : ("this place..., it feels familiar, as if I've been here before")...!!, kakashi, thi-

Kakashi : - I know, i've already figured that out, Naruto.

Shikamaru : figured out what?.

Kakashi : we've completed a mission here before.

Sakura : Oh yeah, the escort mission.

Sasuke : (gritting his teeth) ("that's the mission were I almost died because of that ice bitch, if we ever cross paths again, I gonna kill her").

FIVE MINUTES LATAER

Dog with ninja head band : Here we are.

Kakashi : thank you old friend.

POOF!!

With a puff of smoke all the dogs vanished. Kakashi and the others stood in trees above the cults camp watching their movements. the cult members acted loving and close with each other as thought the were at a family reunion, laughing and helping each other. the sight would fool anyone who saw it into thing the weren't blood thirsty monster who only want to paint the world red with blood.

Cult Leader : EVERYONE GATHER AROUND!!

upon hear his voice entire camp formed a circle around their leader to hear what he had to say.

Cult Leader : I've been given a vision of our future and in that future none of us will live to see sun rise..., but that is no reason to be scared and start to panic, as the scriptures have said death is not the end, all true believers well transcend this realm and be granted a place in endless Palace of Lord JASHIN!!.

Clap!! Clap!! Clap!!

Looking up the leader saw a blonde boy clapping.

Naruto : (still clapping) that was a lovely speech, it really was..., was that the type of speech you gave to motivate your followers to massacre?.

Leader : Y-

STAB!!

As he was going to respond to Naruto a kunai was thrown by sasuke hit him in his throat, everyone watched as he fell back into his wife's arms and slowly died. Seeing that none of the cultist tried to do anything the ninja's moved in to cut them all down

Asuma : we've got a job to do.

Choji, ten ten, and rock Lee we're gripped with fear at the thought of killing, they could only stand and watch as the other's massacred group of none resistant people. They went one by one slitting the throat of everyone that was involved with the cult. As they were finishing up everyone involved in killing was covered in blood similar to how the cult members we're when they massacred the towns people.

Asuma : let's get rid of the bodies.

Kakashi looked over at sasuke and nod his head they then performed the hands signs for the fire ball jutsu.

Kakashi and sasuke : FIRE STYLE : fire ball jutsu.

Asuma. : FIRE STYLE : Burning ash.

After slitting everyone's throats they burned they're corpses to ash. the near by town's folks all could see the thick black smoke in the air and smell the disgusting smell of burning human flesh, little did they know that this would have been their fate had things had gone differently.

Kakashi turn to the three that did not participate.

Kakashi : you three better have a good reason why you stayed back and didn't help ?.

Ten ten : (crying) I-i couldn't, I couldn't bring myself to kill another person.

Rock Lee : neither could i , kakashi sensei.

Choji : I-i got scared and froze.

Kakashi : that's not good enough, try again.

Rock Lee : ... what do except us to say, I'm sorry sensei but killing is too much.

Kakashi : let me get this straight, you've all seen the monsterous things they've done and planned to do and that wasn't motivation enough for you to kill them..., I'll be honest with you being a ninja isn't the career path for you, you should give it up while your still young and have a future.

Asuma : hate to say it but Kakashi is right, as a ninja the inability to take a live at a moment's notice is a major weakness even though your still kids at the end of the day but most enemies won't care as long as your the enemy.

While all that was happening a few men from the town came to investigate the smoke with weapons in hand. seeing the massive fire burning the closer the got along with hearing voices talking about killing and being weak put them on edge.

Fat town's man : what should we do ?.

Town's man with beard : well get closer and see who they are then we'll make the choice to attack or not.

everyone got close enough to see who the voices were, the bearded man recognized kakashi upon seeing his white hair and head band that covered his eye. the made connect the group to get information on what was happening, what caused the fire. they were given and explanations that sent a chill down their spine. given that the sky began to get dark signifying nightfall and the journey back to the hidden leaf would be lengthy the men from the town invited the group to spend the night and clean the selfs as they were covered in drying blood.
