A Rank x2, ANBU initiation {Hayabusa}

Hayabusa had awaken from his slumber, now tired from his previous few days of traveling, fighting, and requesting of one mission that was done yesterday. He had been so exhausted that the time to see if the squirrel that he had performed the cursed seal on would have been well into its prime state now… if it was still alive. He looked to the left of him, on his night stand. Both of his prized possessions laid on it, the Force Manipulation Scroll and the White Snake Book.
“Man…” Hayabusa said as he sat up. He rubbed his eyes, attempting to get the ‘sleepy’ out of it. He pulled the covers off of his body as he walked around his room, wondering what it was that he was going to do today. He figured first off he would take a nice shower. When he got out, he wouldn’t know what kind of day he would be working with, so he didn’t know what he would be wearing today. He had decided just to where he all black Uchiha cloak that had belong to his grandfather. He was no longer ashamed to walk among the streets known as an Uchiha…
He had decided to travel light today… the puppets probably would not be needed. He strapped his three blades onto him, the Jade Twins and the Chakra Katana, where they usually would be strapped on. He opened up his night stand and took out his village head band. He had caught a glimpse of his Kanji head band… in which he would begin wearing when he was finally named a Jounin.
As he walked downstairs, his grandfather had been watching the small television that they owned. He looked at him, as Hayabusa did the same. His grandfather looked away, saying nothing. Hayabusa shrugged and prepared to head towards the refridgerator, where he was going grab himself a nice glass of tea… but the door was knocked on right as he opened… he was rather thirsty so he just grabbed a bottle of water.
As he walked to the door, he had opened the cap up to the bottle and threw it behind him as he sipped on the water, as he had opened the door. There had stood two people behind at the door with ANBU masks on.
“Crap… did I do something wrong?” Hayabusa asked them. The two looked at each other, before looking back at Hayabusa. One of them shook his head. “Ok… well then what do I owe this pleasure then?” Hayabusa asked.
“You have gained shown interest by our facility… we would like for you to join the ANBU Special Ops…” he said.
“Wow… ok… I’m listening…” Hayabusa said as he stepped outside and closed the door.
“You must do a mission… for the ANBU authority. It will count as a village mission, as well as the initiation into the ANBU. Do you accept these terms?” he asked.
“Yea, of course… where do I retrieve this mission then?” Hayabusa asked them. They turned and summoned him to come with them. He downed the bottle and put it on the ground by the door, before taking off into airborne jumps, following them to where it was he needed to go.
He followed them; roof top to roof top, in an easy follow the leader formation, as one of the two led, and the other followed his exact foot print. Hayabusa could easily see that the man in front had a bigger foot than that of the other. In a dirt path, this one single file path would make it harder for enemies to determine how many intruders there were. Either that, or Hayabusa had just come up with a brilliant strategy and these guys did it just because it was easy to follow the other.
Finally, they had jumped down, one after another, to a building that seemed to connect directly to the Hokage’s mansion. They looked at each other and they had then began walking up to the door in front of him. Hayabusa followed them closely. They two had opened the double doors, one at each door, and offered Hayabusa to enter the building with their hands outstretched in order to let him in. Hayabusa nodded in thanks, as in the distance he could see a shadowed figure standing there before him.
He was sitting at a desk in the middle of a room… he had many papers in front of him, as if he did the paper work. Was he the mission giver and the recruiter as well? Hayabusa had wondered as he stepped up to him. The man behind the mask looked up. He lifted his mask slowly, showing that he was a older middle aged man with the eyes of the Byakugan… he was a Hyuuga.
“Ah… the Uchiha under the surname of Lydeck…” he said, smiling at Hayabusa. He stood up and outstretched his hand. Hayabusa grasped it and shook in, before bowing in respect to the man. He took his seat and looked through some more papers.
“I am Brad… Wong Brad. Study in sciences and biology… and anatomy…” he said as he gave Hayabusa a keen eye as if he had known that Hayabusa was working on being a medical ninja. “Now… Hitomi is not too pleased with my interest in you… but she owed me a favor, therefore, she had to let you go. We have our own autopsy rooms here and you can continue your medical practices on the clock, when you’re not out doing missions. Actually it may be crucial that you completely finish your practices.” He said as he looked back down to the papers.
“Anyhow… it seems you were finally given the go ahead to do some A Rank missions… well… you need to do two in order to be Jounin… so… here’s the deal. This will be both your test AND you’re a Rank missions. Be warned… if you’re into money, you will only get paid for the A Rank Missions, not of ANBU standard. You understand that, don’t you?” he said looking up Hayabusa.
“Completely…” Hayabusa said to him. “I will run into money soon enough… I am just ready to climb in ranks right now.”
“Excellent. Now…” Brad snapped and one of the two came forth. He had presented to Hayabusa a mask. It was a regular wooden mask that would conceal his face. “This will be what you will wear during your tests, before you are officially an ANBU member. Your first task, you will accompany one of our top agents. Her identity needn’t be disclosed. She is on a task of assassination of a crime lord. He has given us a lot of trouble. He is heavy in drug trafficking. So, find any way possible in order to crack his code… get into the system. We actually have one of his delivery boys in custody. We have gotten a little bit of information out of him. One our own can pry into one’s mind. The delivery man in particular is a murderer, so we benefit from catching him. He’s to be executed now that we have gotten all the information from him. So… if you want to speak to him for anything, that’s up to you.”
“I have a request…” Hayabusa said, as he put on the mask and thought of his White Snake Book.
“What is it?” Brad asked.
“I… I want to kill him.”
“Uh… with reasonable consideration, I can approve such.” He said.
“Ok… but… in private…” he said, looking at the other ANBU member. Brad looked at him, and nodded.
“Go on… what’s the mystery…” he asked.
“I have the powers of a man once feared here… Orochimaru…”
“Ah… is that so?”
“Yes… now… I can use this man’s body as my temple… I can be this man… may get us on transit.”
“Hmmmm… I like the way you think. Well… I authorize it… only if your partner will agree…” he said as he turned his head. From behind, a familiar female figure had stepped from out of the darkness. She nodded. Hayabusa could have gotten mad, for he asked to speak in private, but he just shrugged it off. It was his own fault for not detecting if there was anybody else that was in the room with them.
“Great…” well… take me to him.”
“Not so fast. First of all… you must bring the crime lord back alive. That is your first mission. Secondly, you will personally deliver the letter to the agent at the rendezvous point, which will be revealed if you come back…. Be warned, the crime lord’s goons will be waiting for you, so it will be a great task. Do you accept these missions?” he asked Hayabusa. Hayabusa smirked.
“Fully…” Hayabusa said as he looked up at his partner who was so familiar, and she turned. She had a brown ponytail… he knew nobody who held fashion of such things. But he did not really care about her identity just yet. Until he would become an ANBU member, there was a reason it was a secret, and he planned to respect that code.
She led him through a labyrinth, in which from the outside, he had no idea would exist this far into the Hokage mansion. Hayabusa followed the woman all the way through to a secluded room that had a light overhead. It was a possibility of three lights. One was green, one was red, and the other was black. It was currently lit on black. He figured that sooner or later he would understand what that meant.
She opened the door and outstretched her hand, finding the man there, in chains. He walked in afterwards, and she closed the door, leaving herself on the outside. He looked at the man.
“Ha… some executioner. You won’t do shit to me! You are all weak hearted… YOU..” Hayabsa took off his mask, revealing his Sharingan eyes. “You… removed your mask… you only do that when you are about to… GAH!” wrapped around the man’s through now was Hayabusa softened arm, wrapping around three times, strangling him within seconds. The man’s body limped over. Hayabusa released his grip and his arm went back to normal, as he put his hand on the dead man’s face. He put chakra into his finger tips and, in moments, the skin shed off of the man, falling into Hayabusa’s hand like a mask.
He put it up to his own face, using this jutsu for the first time, and the skin wrapped around his face, taking its form on him and down past his neck and stopping. The rest of his body pigmented to the color of the skin.
“This… is awkward… he said to himself, as he turned and readied to leave the premises. He put the mask back on and walked out of the door, where his partner was there for him. She stepped in and pressed a button, and the overhead light turned green. She looked at the body on the floor, now faceless… nothing but muscle. She looked at Hayabusa.
“Let me see…” she said in a muffled voice. This began to show Hayabusa that he definitely knew who this woman was, and she wanted to keep it a secret. Hayabusa pulled up the mask. She slowly put her hand up to his face, feeling the texture. “Like real… let’s go.” She said. Hayabusa nodded, pulling the mask back on to his face. She spring through the hallways, and Hayabusa followed her. They went out another exit, coming out the back of the building.
They ran for a good twenty minutes, before she stopped at a corner. She looked around. From above, another man had jumped down, of the ANBU. He had handed her two big duffle bags. She looked at Hayabusa.
“Intel says you are to meet your partner in that alleyway over there in five minutes.” She said. Hayabusa nodded. He took off his trainee mask and took off his cloak. He gave it to her, and he had also taken off his weapons, handing it to her as well. She handed it to the other man, telling him to take it back to base. He took the bags and put it over his shoulder, looking like a new person.
“Good luck…” she said. Hayabusa nodded. He walked over to the alley way and walked in, after he had looked around to ‘make sure he wasn’t being followed’. He walked in. From the darkness, Hayabusa could hear somebody.
“You’re early… no matter… were you followed?” he asked.
“No…”
“I DIDN’T SAY SPEAK!!! Now… were you followed?” He asked. Hayabusa shook his head. “Good… come…” Hayabusa walked into the darkness as he could feel hand pat him down for any weapons that he may have. And they touched everywhere… it made Hayabusa very uncomfortable. If he hadn’t been on a mission, he would have killed them all where they stood.
Before him a door opened, and he could see two men standing there. Hayabusa stood, until he was pushed forward to enter. Behind him the door closed. Hayabusa looked around, as the two men escorted him in the labyrinth of the building which must have been the thug’s domain. Hayabusa had assumed whatever this was in the bag was important so they would have to take straight to him. Hayabusa tripped, purposely, finding a nail on the floor and stabbing his thumb with it.
“Gah…”
“Get up punk! It’s just a cut…” one of the thugs said. Hayabusa stood up brushing himself off, pressing pressure onto his leg. He had summoned one of his tags, and grabbed it, sticking it to the bottom of one of the bags. Hayabusa followed until they had made it to the end. Before him he could see five men standing guard to a desk at the end of the corridor, with the chair turned. He could see smoke coming from the air. Hayabusa handed the bags over to the bouncer and he took it to the desk. The leaded was a small midget type guy when he turned around in the chair, inspecting the bags. He looked up at Hayabusa.
“This is the non-chakra user?” he asked.
“Yes sir…”
“Well… this bag is light… something had been taken out of it. Take him out back… show him what happens to people who steal from me…” he said. The bouncers smirked. One stood at the door closing is. Another open up a door that was quadruple bolted. Two of the other five grabbed him by the arms, chanting. They threw him into the room and all five surrounded him. The one at the door, closed it, bolted it, and looked through the window.
One of the five lifted him in the air and pulled his fist back, preparing to throw a punch at him.
“Heh… prepare for a beating, weakling!” he said, punching Hayabusa straight in the face. The mask peeled off a little bit. Hayabusa smirked. He kicked the man in the gut, peeling off the mask completely. He revealed his own face, activating his Sharingan.
“Sorry guys…” he said, as he performed a hand seal and he had reappeared where the tag was in front of the boss. Hayabusa grabbed him by the neck, performing another seal and he had teleported the both of them to his items, in which his partner had gave to the man to hold.
There, the two ANBU members stood, awaiting for him. They became alert when Hayabusa appeared from nowhere. He threw the midget on the ground.
“There… mission accomplished…” Hayabusa said. The two looked at him. The midget looked up, fearing for his life. He began to try to break for it. But the woman pressed his hand to his back. He became paralyzed. She was a medical ninja? He began to get a hint of who this woman was.
The man gave Hayabusa all of his stuff back and he reassembled himself, mask, cloak, weapons and all. The man then grabbed the guy and they began to jump back to the base. The three of them arrived, and took the man in through the back to pry information from his mind. Hayabusa sat, waiting. The overhead light was red. When it turned black, the mind searcher came out, handing Hayabusa the document.
“The Uchiha complex… near the temple is where you will find him. Come right back when the deed is done…” he said. Hayabusa nodded. That was great. Hayabusa walked around the corner and put the tag on the wall. He performed one seal, reappearing at his tag at home. He replaced it and walked out of the house, seeing a figure there on his steps. Hayabusa handed him the document.
“That was fast…” he said. The man lifted his mask, showing to be Hyuuga… Brad. Hayabusa handed him the document and Brad read it. He looked up at Hayabusa, taking something out of his pocket. “Take this to the desk… come mid day sometime, you will be officially ANBU, and we will deliver to you your new clothing for your jobs.” He patted Hayabusa on the shoulder. “Congrats…” he put his mask down and jumped up on top of the roof. Hayabusa performed a seal, reappearing into the ANBU base. Hayabusa followed the hall to the front, to the desk. He gave it to the man sitting there. The man opened it up and read it. He looked up at Hayabusa.
“How did you… never mind… congrats… we will come to you when this is stamped by one of the councilors.” He said.
“Thank you…” Hayabusa said, as he bowed, took his mask off, and place it on the table. He turned and prepared to walk outside. He had some more things that he wanted to do.
