Chapter 3

Last Time:

"Her." Tony said with a sigh.

Now:

Naruto groaned as he stood in the same training ground that he had trained in with Captain. "Now…eyes are up here, Naruto." Natalya said with a smirk. Oh how she loved to tease. "My name is Natalya Romanov and I will be teaching you everything I know, from infiltration to information gathering and stealth. I will also be teaching you another style of fighting, the complete opposite of Captain's." Natalya stated smugly. "But what do you mean by opposite?" "Punch me." "Huh?" "Throw a punch. Get in stance and give me the meanest punch you can."

Naruto shrugged and got into a loose boxing stance, throwing a hard straight. Natalya ducked under it and grabbed his arm with one arm and hooked his armpit with the other. Before Naruto knew, he was flipped onto his back. Natalya then made a downwards kick, allowing it to land softly in his chest. "Dead." "huh?" Natalya kicked the front of his foot and smirked as a small blade came out of the heel of her shoe. "Dead." Naruto began sweating profusely.

"Wh…what was that?" "A simple fit. If you want, I can teach you that and so much more. And I will also teach you some grappling moves and reversals. However, my uniform is much more different than Cap's." Black widow smirked as Jarvis came in with a small moving table following him. "The items you requested." "Go get changed." Natalya said and Naruto left quickly. "think he can handle it?" "He managed to do captain's." "yea, but I'm much tougher." "True. Try not to kill him." Jarvis said playfully.

Natalya nodded as he left and Naruto stepped out. He was now wearing black cargo pants, a black T shirt, and steel toed boots. "Why are these boots so heavy?" Naruto asked. Natalya just went up to a punching bag set up in the room and kicked it, the impact actually sending the bag flying until it was caught by the chain supporting it. "So you don't hurt your feet doing that. Now, stretch yourself and make sure you're loose. After that, I'll teach you a few reversals and some moves. Then we will move on to basic infiltration."

"Afterwards, beginners information gathering and hiding in plain sight. And finally we will spar so I can see where you are currently and we can begin training those feet for high impact kicks." Naruto saluted and got down to stretching. After half an hour, he determined he was ready. "Now, what is the boxer's biggest weakness?" "hmm….i'm not…" Naruto started, but was silenced as a sharp kick to his knees sent him to the ground, pain flaring throughout his whole body.

"The biggest weakness is the over-reliance of Upper body strength. Now, some opponents are well trained and have set stances and katas. Others are pugilist and go for the straight brawler style. How do you deal with the brawlers?" Naruto put his hand up to his chin and began to think, only for Natalya to drop to one knee, wrap her arms around his knee, and twist it to one side, making him fall to the floor. "you mess with their center of balance."

"Most people trained properly in hand to hand combat won't fall for such a simple trick, so you will have to focus on disabling and reversing moves. Here, you have to be able to think fast and retaliate faster. Now, get into your stance." "Naruto groaned, but did as he was told. "Ok, now.." Naruto started, but was thrown off when he was flipped by Natalya standing behind him. "How did you?" "I hugged around your waist, locked my hands together, and threw you over my leg. Now do 5 laps around the arena as silently as you can while wearing these."

Natalya said as she dropped a weighed vest totaling 40 pouns and arm and ankle weights totaling 20 pounds a limb. "the combined weight is 120 pounds. You need to learn how to move quickly and silently. Now hurry up and get to it. We have a lot to do and 2 years time is barely enough." Naruto nodded and followed her.

~ Time skip – 2 Years ~

Naruto groaned as he stared at Natalya. "I've gotten better, you gotta give me that much." Natalya nodded, sporting a slight bruise on her cheek and her body hurting everywhere. Over time, they had developed a mother / son relationship. When Naruto was sick and couldn't do anything, she would take care of him. He confided in her with his problems when he couldn't go to Cap, when he was feeling sad, she would cheer him up. When his birthday came by, she would always plan the best parties she could and would even take control of a bot to make Naruto a special cake.

Overall, Natalya Romanov, a trained assassin and infiltration specialist, was the best mother Naruto could ask for. Naruto shook his head from those thoughts as Natalya charged at him. He ducked under a kick and retaliated with a knee to her stomach. As Natalya tried to get up, Naruto grabbed her head and smashed it against his knee. Natalya fell back, but managed to stand on her own. She looked up, only to see Naruto…gone? "Behind!" Natalya yelled and tried to kick backwards, only to feel a sharp pain against the top of her head.

"DAMN IT!" she yelled as she saw Naruto and from his kick to her head. "Dead." Naruto said with a smirk. "What?" Naruto stomped the foot he kicked her with and a large 2 inch blade sprang from the bottom of his boot. "dead." He said again with a huge grin on his face. "…Fine!" she replied with her cheeks puffed, but pride evident in her face. "Yeah!" Naruto yelled as he fell backwards to the soft ground under him. "Ne, Natalya?" "Yes?" "Captain had a graduation test after he finished teaching me. Are you gonna do the same?"

"Yes, but mines won't be physical, no no. You see, I am an infiltration specialist for a reason." "Then what is my test?" "Tonight is October 10. The Namikazes, your former family, are throwing a huge bash to celebrate. Invite only. Your job is to take this." She said as she held up a small gray orb in the palm of her hand. "And infiltrate the Namikaze household. After you have infiltrated, you are to set this off in the Namikaze library and keep the room clear for 5 minutes. It will scan the whole area and store any and all written information into it's memory bank. Then, return here. Being caught isn't an option."

Naruto smirked as he took the small gray ball. "…I love this assignment!" Naruto said as he got up and headed to his room. "Where are you going?" "To get ready." Naruto replied excitedly.

~ Naruto's Room ~

Naruto grinned as he grabbed a pair of scissors and started cutting his hair, lowering it from his regular spiky look to a flat one. The then left the bangs long and smirked as he took a bottle of black hair dye. "Here's hoping." Naruto said out loud as he started to dye his hair and eyebrows black. He let the dye set in and hopped into the shower, ready to wash it out.

After Naruto stepped out of the shower, he dried his painted hair and styled it to the sides. (Think Silvester Stallone's in The Expendables) Naruto then put on a formal suit that had been laid out for him by Natalya. "Thanks!" Naruto yelled as he threw on a pair of black sweatpants and a black sweat shirt. Naruto then went to the mirror and looked at his reflection. 'Damn it, my eyes are a dead give away!' Naruto thought as he began rifling through his medicine cabinet.

"Jackpot!" Naruto said as he took out what looked like they were a pair of contact lenses and put them on. He now had brown eyes. "Brown eyes, black hair. Simple face, nothing that really sticks out and can be easily, almost subconsciously forgotten." Naruto smirked as he headed up a hidden hatch, finding himself outside of the forest of death. He smirked as he walked to his old house, finding a lot of security and a bouncer at the door.

Naruto walked to the side and climbed the tree, then waited patiently.

~ 30 minutes Later ~

"got it!" Naruto said as he got up slowly. 'Easiest place to get in is through the 2nd floor bathroom. Security makes rounds every five minutes, so I have to be fast about it. Now one is in the bathroom now.' Naruto thought as he dashed to the side of the house.

~ Side of The House ~

Naruto grinned as he looked towards the open window. "Now…" Naruto began as he put on a pair of black gloves. He then took out two matching black cases and aimed them at the roof. With a small ping, cables made of Teflon were ejected and buried themselves at the roof of the house. He then attached them to his belt and slowly put both of his feet up against the wall. "Easy." Naruto thought as he started walking upwards. Right before he could reach the window, he was spotted.

"HEY YOU!" A guard leading a large black dog yelled. Naruto hurried and walked into the bathroom. 'Shit' Naruto thought as he retracted the Teflon cables and put the boxes on the counter. Naruto then took off his sweats and hid them underneath the bathroom Cabinet. He finished combing his hair and hid the Teflon cable boxes on his person, then walked out as 3 guards walked into the 2nd floor hallway. Naruto ducked into the first door he found and hid there, Listening as the security guards slammed the door open to find…nothing.

Naruto smirked as he heard them curse and send out an APB on a male with black hair wearing a tux. That was half of the people at the party. After he made sure they had left, Naruto walked into the bathroom and grabbed his sweats. 'Leave No clues.' He thought as he took the trash bag off the trashcan in the bathroom and slipped his sweats inside. He then carried it to the service entrance and left it behind a stack of crates. 'I'm in, and hidden in the best place available…in plain sight.' Naruto thought with a smirk as he headed off to mingle and hopefully find the library.
