Awakening

Warning!-This fic has yaoi male/male pairings.Also, there may be self mutilation or attempted suicide in later chapters.

Thoughts: -Blahblah-

Aloud:"blahblah"

Shouting:"blahblah"

Right..er...you get it.

Zabuza attempted to get up, but only succeeded in twitching his fingers. He winced in pain and blinked as Kakashi entered his sight range.

"Kakashi..."He rasped.

The scarecrow pulled his forehead protector down over his Sharigan and met Zabuza's gaze with his one eye.

"C-can...you do me a favor? Can you take me to him? I want to see his face."

Kakashi's face relaxed, his one visible eye radiating sadness. He knelt and carefully removed the weapons from Zabuza's torn back. He pulled Zabuza against his chest and lifted him, carrying him to Haku before gently lowering him so he lay beside his former student.

"Haku..."Zabuza murmured, tears mingling with the dried blood spattered across his cheeks. He reached out and cupped the boys cheek in his palm, his vision slowly darkening."I love you.."

A single snowflake drifted down to land on Haku's eyelid. It melted on the still warm flesh and ran down the side of his face in a mocking imitation of tears.

Zabuza's eyes flickered open and he stared at the ceiling in confusion.-Where am I? This isn't hell...or heaven.-He turned his head to stare at the pallet next to his where Sasuke lay.-I'm alive.-He realized in dawning horror. Sitting up quickly, he ignored the telltale stinging of his back and ribs.

The woman tending to Sasuke looked up, hearing the movement, and gasped before narrowing her eyes into a glare."You're awake."She said in a monotone voice, continuing to wring out the wet cloth before laying it across Sasuke's forehead.

"Where am I, and who are you?"Zabuza questioned in a low growl.

The woman frowned sternly at him and sat back on her heels."I'm the daughter of the man you were hired to kill. My name is Tsunami."

The Demon winced and looked away towards the door."Why was I brought here and why am I still alive?"

"Sheesh,"Tsunami muttered,"You're like a little kid. Stop asking me, figure it out for yourself. After the battle Gato's men killed themselves. The idiots walked right off the bridge. You killed Gato."She smiled a little at that and lowered her head, picking a clean shirt from the basket near the door and beginning to fold it. He recognized it as his own."Kakashi carried you back here..we haven't buried that boy of yours yet...Kakashi said you would probably want to be there to see him laid to rest."

Zabuza looked away to stare at the floor."Tell him...thank you.."

She snorted,"Tell him yourself. Oh.."she looked down at the black shirt."This is yours, I patched it up."Tossing it to him, she stood and balanced the basket on her hip."You should probably get some rest. If you get hungry, there's food in the kitchen.."

"Thank you."He muttered.

The woman paused in he doorway to show she had heard him, then continued on, the door sliding shut behind her.

Zabuza raised his fist to pound it into the floor, then thought better of it and quickly stood. He gasped as multi-colored dots filled his vision like exploding stars. Stumbling slightly, he staggered forward to brace his weight against the wall.

"Where are you going?"A weak voice questioned.

Zabuza glanced toward Sasuke."Nowhere, you're dreaming. Close your eyes and go back to sleep."

Sasuke smirked,"I'm not stupid, though it might work on the dobe."Sasuke blinked as if realizing something and glanced around.

Snickering the Demon eyed him,"Your boyfriend isn't in here."

The dark-haired boy flushed and turned over, his back to Zabuza. Shortly after, the rise and fall of his back indicated he was asleep again.

Sighing, Zabuza bent over stiffly to grab his shirt from the floor before slipping it on. They had left his black pants on him, probably afraid he'd wake up and slit their throats if they dare try and remove them.

The door slid open and Kakashi entered with Sakura. The pink haired girl quickly knelt next to Sasuke and brushed the hair from his face.

Kakashi took a step back when he saw Zabuza's bed empty and turned to where the Demon was standing. Zabuza crossed his arms over his chest and leaned against the wall, staring at the scarecrow.

"You're awake."Kakashi said simply.

"..."

Sighing, the scarecrow scratched the back of his head and turned to where Sakura was watching.

The girl opened her mouth as if to say something, then glanced at Zabuza and shut it again. Shifting uncomfortably, she turned her back on them in favor of caring for the injured Seasick.

Zabuza frowned, pushing off the wall."Are you going to let me leave?"

Kakashi continued rubbing the back of his head as he glanced at him,''You have to come with us to Hidden Leaf Village...your fate will be decided by our Hokage.."

"I don't give a fuck about your Hokage! I'm not going to kill anyone else. It's not like I have the strength anyways-"

Kakashi narrowed his eyes,"it wasn't an offer, I was informing you of your future destination. If you try and leave you won't get far.."His voice softened."We haven't buried Haku yet..we should do that today."

"I don't want you bastards touching him...I'll do it myself."Zabuza growled, pushing past the prone Leaf ninja to exit the now-tense room.

Naruto sat at the table, slurping up ramen noodles. He stared at Zabuza. Zabuza stared in turn at Naruto, slowly clenching his fist. Naruto's eyes widened and he dove under the table."You little brat!" Zabuza snarled, dashing around the table and leaning down to grab at the blond haired ninja.

"Zabuza, stop it!"Kakashi commanded sharply.

"Don't try to stop me, I have no problem in killing all of you!"He snarled in Kakashi's direction, still groping underneath the table for Naruto. The blond straightened and hid behind Kakashi.

Zabuza started around the table again but his side hit the corner of the table. He gasped and fell to his knees, raising his head to find Kakashi and Naruto glaring at him. Tazuna sat quietly on a chair in the corner of the room with Inari on his lap.

Tsunami dashed from the kitchen into the room and sighed at Zabuza in exasperation."I told you to rest."

"Fuck...Why won't you all just die."He snarled tiredly and leaned against the leg of the table, holding his aching side.

Sakura squealed excitedly,"Sasuke's awake!"

NOTE:Chapter was edited and slightly rewritten!

Ack...my first chapter to my Zabuza/Kakashi story.This pairing seemed so... They're meant to be!At least in my mind..both bishounen, fiesty...AHEM!.And..yeah.I love Zabuza, and Kakashi just seemed like someone that would go well with him..and then damnit they up and killed him;-;WHY DID THEY KILL ZabUZA!...Well..I think I know why but all the same.

There's absolutely no Kakashi/Zabuza fanfiction..anywhere.I've used almost all the search engines I could find and there was absolutely nothing.A couple yaoi doujinshi scans on them, maybe a few fanart drawings.But no one had the nerve to do a fanfic on them.-.-; So...I figured I had to; Even if it did suck, at least it's a start-.-

And anyone who is reading this and loves Naruto, PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE try writing a fanfic on them;-;There is NO absolutely NO fanfiction on this pairing.And if you do..please tell me.I want to read it, no matter how 'stupid' you think it may be.I MUST!.;-;Yeah..sorry..didn't mean that as a (Yeah this chapter was a little overdramatic and the story is probably completely unrealistic..I mean Zabuza's attitude and everything..I tried to make it gruff and ect..he did kill all those peopleBut I have to make him normal and kind..at least a little..How else am I going to get all the characters in the story to like him and Kakashi finally win him over! . )
