Team 7 and Tazuna crossed a river with the help of a friend of Tazuna

After they got out of the boat, in the mist filled environment, it didn't take long until Kaede noticed a chakra fluctuation close by.

Naruto noticed the moving bushes and threw a kunai on them, though it only scared a little snow bunny

*Slap* with a slap to the back of Naruto's head, Kaede took the terrified bunny in her arms and muttered

"Your name will be Blizzard" and the same thing that happened to Tora, now Touka happened to the little bunny.

"EVERYBODY GET DOWN!" Kakashi screamed

Naruto tripped and luckily avoided getting cleaved in half, plot armor.

Sasuke dived in Tazuna's direction and got both of them to safely avoid the flying sword.

Kaede just jumped above the sword as she liked to go against what Kakashi told her to do.

The ENORMOUS sword got stuck to a tree, how did such a heavy sword not cut straight through the tree at the speed it was going? how the heck should I know?

Above the sword a shirtless man with a terrible sense of clothing and bandages over his face appeared, that was Zabuza Momochi, the demon of the hidden mist

Well, since we all know how things go on this encounter lets resume it as to not bore you to death.

Kakashi begun fighting Zabuza and got trapped, Naruto created a plan with Sasuke and freed him, Kakashi defeated Zabuza by finishing his jutsu before him. Done.

Kaede who was 'protecting' Tazuna during all of this was mildly pleased.

'Now I can use those water moves and have a believable excuse about how I know them... Making this permanent sharingan bs was totally worth it!'

Before Kakashi could finish Zabuza, senbons hit Zabuza on the neck and a 'kiri hunter nin' took his body away, Kakashi passed out immediately after and had to be carried to Tazuna's house by Naruto and his clones.

Since Naruto was carrying Kakashi, and Kaede was carrying Blizzard, Sasuke was the one 'protecting' Tazuna, but no other attacks were made on him before they arrived at his house.

Kakashi began to teach BASIC chakra control to Naruto and Sasuke while Kaede who said she already knew it, or else she wouldn't be able to do much with the drain of her sharingan, volunteered to 'guard' Tazuna's house until the day of Zabuza's attack.

During this time, Kaede made a new clone and had it hide below the bridge with her newly acquired skill [Hiding in water] that she got from the demon brother from before.

One week later, Naruto overslept so the team let him behind as they made their way to the bridge. After arriving there they saw dead workers all around and a lot of mist.

After making a grand entrance, Zabuza and Haku began fighting Kakashi and Sasuke respectively.

While Kaede took care of Zabuza's clones, taking her time.

Haku imprisioned Sasuke in an ice mirror dome and begun to turn him slowly into a pin cushion... Naruto arrived and charged right in, Sasuke almost died and Naruto lost control and punched Haku in the face so hard, that Haku's unbreakable mask shattered.

By this time Kaede was dealing with the last clone of Zabuza and Kakashi had Zabuza nailed down with his dogs.

"Owari da Zabuza, Omae wa mou..." Charging his chidori, Kakashi launched himself in the direction of Zabuza, about to finish him off.

but, however, in the meantime, nevertheless... Haku suddenly activated his own plot armor and got in between Kakashi and Zabuza, dying in his place.

Kaede finished off Zabuza's last clone and found the Kubikiribocho on the ground, and then kicked it out of the bridge.

Gato arrived with his army of thugs, Zabuza had his redemption under the legendary talk-no-jutsu and in a last effort, killed a lot of the thugs and Gato himself.

The end... or not

Kaede's clone got the Kubikiribocho and made its way towards the forest, Naruto decided to bury Haku and Zabuza and whatnot, they did it, however, after they left towards Tazuna's house, Kaede's clone got Haku's body and went away again.

After the team arrived at Tazuna's house Kaede went out in the forest to 'cool off' and no one really questioned it

Arriving at a clearing, her clone emerged from her shadow, with Haku's body in one arm and Kubikiribocho in the other

"Great, [Predator]" Immediately absorbing both, Kaede heard [Great sage]'s voice once more

<Affirmative.

Acquiring skills [Ice manipulation], [Ice shaping], [Ice conjuration], [Stealth] (from silent killing) and cold resistance... completed

Acquiring Extra skill [Kubikiribocho]... complete>

(A/N: Skill [Kubikiribocho] will let Kaede make any weapon in her hands, have the properties of Kubikiribocho, that is repairing itself with blood)

'Neat, Sage use the water clone jutsu that I copied before to make adjustments to my clone skill'

<Affirmative. Applying changes... done.

Skill [Body clone] can now be infused with elements to get special properties.

Now it is possible to create ego-less clones>

And with that great harvest, Kaede's first C-ranked mission ended... or was it first B-ranked? doesn't matter.

Noticing a familiar presence in her shadow, Kaede smiled

"Blizzard, I know you are there"

...

"As expected of Kaede-sama" A little kid with bunny ears got out of Kaede's shadow.

That was Blizzard's human form, she got that after her evolution finished 3 days ago.

At first she called Kaede by her real name, Rimuru, but Kaede explained to her that she needed to call her Kaede while she was disguised and never add sama to her name when close to others.

"What have you been up to?" Kaede asked as she absent mindedly begun to pet Blizzard as she told Kaede about her day
