Kryah: Umm…Hi! This is my first story ever, and is a gift to one of the greatest buddies of all time: AngelLucifel. HAPPY EARLY EASTER!!!!

Sasuke: The girl who's convinced I'm gay?

Kryah: Oh yeah! For curious viewers, Sasu-chan here is my muse, as weid as that may seem. And yes, Sasuke, that's her.

Sasuke: Why are you writing a Yaoi fic of all things? You're not even a fan.

Kryah: blushing So? I told you it's a GIFT. And it's not really yaoi, actually. Anyway, let's get this started already!


Disclaimer: Once upon a time, there was a girl. She was a rabid fan of anime and Naruto especially. She begged for its rights, but got shot down. God damn you, Kishimoto.


Usa-chan


It had been about six weeks since he took on the boy, Zabuza mused, but not once had they hit a snag like this.

Haku was depressed.

To clear things up, we should turn back the clock a bit…


Haku sat down to catch his second wind after the normal Tuesday Night Massacre, and felt for something within his kimono. A small, soft something he always seemed to have with him.

…Which wasn't there.

Haku took a deep breath, willing himself not to panic. He would find it. It probably just fell out. He casually stood up and wandered around the large Banquet Hall where they had taken down their target, a rich nobleman from the Tea Country, when he saw the very worst thing he had morbidly fantasized in his momentary panic.

There, lying faced down and shredded, was his Usa-chan.

Zabuza turned his head just in time to see his prized tool faint at the sight of a torn up stuffed rabbit.


"Usa-chan was the last thing I had left of my mother. She gave it to me when I was three and I hid it before my father could burn it with the rest of her things." Haku quietly explained to Zabuza from his bed.

Zabuza raised a non-existent eyebrow. "Don't ell me," he groaned. "You can't sleep without it, right?" Haku sheepishly nodded, sorry for troubling his master.

Zabuza sighed. It was just a stupid plush toy. Haku would be over it soon.

Haku did not, apparently, get over it.

Over the following weeks, the boy grew pale and withdrawn, a certain absent in his eyes. Zabuza wondered what he could possibly do to snap the boy out of his slump. It was starting to affect Haku in battle. That was all.

A certain shop caught his eye as he was passing by.

Hmmm…


Haku sighed as he slowly woke up. He knew it was stupid to get this worked up over an old toy, bu—Was that a rabbit? Sitting all the way up, Haku gazed in wonder at the white fluff sleeping on the table by his bed.

Haku smiled. It looked like he had a new Usa-chan to suit his new life.


-fin-


Kryah: flops down Whooo. Not very long, but I hope it's fluffy enough for you Lucifel.

Sasuke: begins to say something mean

Kryah: glaring Shaddup.

Sasuke: rolls eyes and goes away

Kryah: beaming Anyways, thanks for reading! Remember, this is my first fic, and yaoi isn't really my forte, so please, if you flame or review, try not to crush my spirit too much.

Above all, I hoped you liked this Lucifel!
