A/N
That was an interesting chapter for me to write. It's not one of my best for sure but it's my way of pointing out Naruto is very much vulnerable. He might be showing great skill but he's very much still killable... for now hehehehehe...
Some people might not like how I handled Zabuza but frankly the amount of fucks I give is at an all time low right now. I'm writing this story and if you wanted it different I welcome you to go get in contact with challenger and do it ya' self ya' damn fool!
Sakura will be punished for what she did. I promise you that. But I swear to Cthulhu one more person asks about it I'm afraid I might do something you'll regret because I know I wont... *Insert menacing laughter accompanied by thunder*
I've got a little challenge of my own. I've been giving out little reward points if you will. basically means you can ask me to put something in the story. Whether it's a power from another anime for Naruto or even a person from another anime for the Harem. Anyway the challenge is to find the reference in this chapter. you'll need to send me a pm with these details to get your reward point.
-What the quote is from.
-Why they say what they said.
-Who the quote is originally from.
-Who they are talking to.
And that's pretty much it. I just find it to be a fun little game I can play with you guys to show I care. XD
The list of people to thank is too long this chapter so I'm just gonna say that all you people. Yeah you know who you are. You're beautiful and I love you.
Anyway, that's enough out of me.
On with the story!
Naruto now slept on a futon in one of the spare rooms in Tazuna's house. His right arm was wrapped heavily in bandages while his face and brow showed signs of intense discomfort. His eyes moved frantically behind his eyelids and sweat poured off his extremely pale face.
"How's he holding up?" Heinkel asked walking into the room with some food.
Yumiko was kneeling on the floor with her hands in her lap right next to Naruto's shaking form. She'd been there and hadn't moved since they'd arrived.
Alexis sat further away sprawled out with her back against the wall. one leg propping up her arm while the other went straight out. In both her hands were bayonet at the ready. Like Yumiko she hadn't left the room. Heinkel was the only one willing to do so and that was only for a cigarette or to retrieve things such as the food she'd now handed off to her two companions while she dug into her own.
Yumiko was the one to answer her question. "He's not really gotten any better or any worse. Not to say that's a good thing considering how he was before we put him under." She answered quietly.
Silence followed as nothing needed to be said. The only thing any of them did was wish for the safety and well being of their Master.
A knock was heard against the door. "May I come in? It's Kakashi." Came the voice.
"Come in." heinkel answered being closest to door having taken up her spot right next to it.
Kakashi opened the door and stepped inside. "Tazuna has informed us of the situation. Apparently the country is under the thumb of a tyrant named Gato. He's a wealthy business man who runs a shipping company and has taken over all exports on the island basically bleeding it dry. It seems he hired Zabuza to take out the Bridge builder as well as our team to make an example. We've decided to continue with our mission-" "And what about our Master! Huh!? He can't continue like this!" Alexis snapped.
"I was getting to that. I've just received word from Konoha and a medic squad left Konoha three hours ago. They should be here tomorrow night if all goes well. We've been told so long as we can keep Naruto sedated and his heart rate down. it was also concluded from the symptoms we gave them that Zabuza's weapon was coated in a quick acting ,nasty acidic poison as the blade he uses is only known to drain blood. However it could be possible that when the blood was drained the poison was circulated quicker into his system." Kakashi explained carefully while being as serious as possible. He might not really show it but he had nothing really against Naruto. He just reminded the scarecrow too much of someone he lost.
With that out of the way the group processed the rest of what Kakashi said. "So this 'Gato' Is the reason for our Masters suffering?" Heinkel asked evenly although hatred and disgust practically dripped from the name.
Kakashi only replied with a nod.
"then he dies." Alexis stated simply. "He dies because if it weren't for him this wouldn't be happening." It was as simple as that. Blame the gunman not the gun.
Again silence reigned over the room until the sound of root steps coming up the hall caught everyone's attention. "Hey kakashi-" Sakura suddenly fell silent as she was once again under the full brunt of the three women's immense Ki.
"Get out..." It was barely a whisper with a slight whimper.
"W-what?" Sakura asked truly scared now.
That was when the quietest and more reserved member of their team snapped. "I said get out!" Yumiko screamed with tears streaming from her puffy red eyes down her face. "This is all your fault! You did this to him!" Yumiko then threw her glasses off and charged the object of her masters pain with her blade drawn.
Alexis and Heinkel instantly reacted and stopped Yumie from decapitating the girl but not before Sakura got a long deep gash going from one cheek across the bridge of her nose and on to the other cheek.
The pink haired Genin cried out and clutched her face while Kakashi grabbed her and quickly took her out of the room and away from the still struggling sword wielder. "Yumie! Stop it right now!" Heinkel shouted in her ear.
"We all decided we'd leave the girl be for now!" Alexis continued.
"We can't let her get away with this! Look what she did to him!" The dark haired nun screamed however she'd stopped struggling as much.
"She will not get away with it." Heinkel said darkly. "You're not the only one who wants her dead but we were hired to make sure they got back to Konoha in one piece. Anything less makes the Hellsing organisation look bad. It makes our master look bad. So we will wait. We will complete this mission. And when no one is watching we will put that miserable bitch down like the dog she is." She continued while letting her rage seep out as she spoke the words.
Now Yumie had stopped completely and walked back over to where her glasses as landed and put them back on before slumping back down in front of Naruto with her head bowed and her face hidden.
In the other room kakashi had applied a salve to Sakura's face after having to knock her out. Apparently the girl had absolutely zero tolerance for pain. He'd now wrapped bandages over the long gash and around the back of her head.
Silence reigned over the room for several minutes as no one had anything they could really say.
"I knew it. Gato is just going to kill you all." Spoke the small boy at the table.
Everyone glanced at him however no one could really dispute the fact under the circumstances.
when it went silent again, no one took notice of the almost invisible person walking past the window in the dark of night as their crimson eyes shone with murderous intent.
a few hours after Kakashi spoke with them and Yumiko/Yumie had attacked Sakura, Alexis and Heinkel were now standing and preparing to move. "We're going into the town to see what we can find on this Gato person. Yumiko, stay here and watch over the Master." Heinkel said while strapping her knife to her leg.
However Yumiko said nothing as her head bowed and she didn't move. "Yumiko, you hear me?" Heinkel asked now eyeing her friend and sister.
"She's gone." was the reply. However it didn't sound like Yumiko.
"Yumie? Where's Yumiko, did she fall asleep?" Alexis asked now sonding slightly worried.
Yumie shook her head. "Not that kind of gone. She's actually gone. She's not there any more. I can't feel her presence in my mind. I even tried forcing her back but nothing happened. The mental stress and the sadness just washed over whatever wall kept us apart and we merged. I guess I was the stronger personality." Yumie explained.
She then looked up and she had Yumiko's glasses on however the facial features were that of Yumie and the glasses were cracked up into hundreds if not thousands of peices in the frames.
Yumie then continued. "Yumiko was always the weak one. It was my job to protect her. Now with her gone I've got no one to protect. Why did she go away and not me?" Yumie started crying. normally Yumie was just aggressive and angry. But now she was feeling the whole spectrum of emotions that she'd never felt and it was rather overwhelming.
Heinkel crouched down and put a hand on her shoulder while Alexis hugged her from behind. "That's not true. You have someone to protect. And right now that person needs you more then he ever will. Yumiko knew that and I think that's why she left you behind. So you didn't have to worry about her any more and you could Focus on our Master. She knew that you would be stronger then she could ever hope to be and that you could do what she couldn't do alone. Now you need to do what you do best and be strong for Yumiko and do as she wanted." Heinkel explained.
Yumie's eyes grew wide and she looked at the blondes before cracking a smile. it was sort of weird to see the smile of Yumiko on Yumie's face however it wasn't unpleasant. "You're right. I need to be strong so our Master can get better. Now you two go and find that bastard. I'll hold down the fort." Yumie said with a much calmer and despite the tears, happier look on her face.
Soon after Heinkel and Alexis left the house while again shooting dirty glares at Sakura who simply shrunk back into her seat. No one asked any questions due to fear of being on receiving end of those glares.
The two blondes walked through the streets of wave with a look of disgust etched on their faces. The place was filthy. People sat on the side walks late at night doing all sorts of things while trash lined the streets. Some buildings looked about ready to fall apart while others were already starting to.
Fights broke out all over the place over the smallest things whether it be something like food, money or even just a disagreement tensions were high.
Eventually they came upon a building that seemed to be in good condition that advertised as a bar. what better place to gather information than a place where peoples tongues were loosened by the sweet embrace of alcohol.
So as they entered they weren't surprised to instantly be assaulted by the loud sounds of talking aswell as the stench of sweat, alcohol, tobacco as well as several other smells they really didn't want to know the origins of.
The entire bar was filled with aggressive,vicious looking men who all seemed to be different from the citizens of Wave. All around Women danced hoping to get the attention and money of the pigs who watched up with lust clear in their eyes.
The duo quickly made their way to the bar while trying not to draw attention to themselves. Sitting at the bar stool, Heinkel ordered two drinks and started trying to listen into the conversation happening around the bar. But as luck would have it two women of their calibur entering a place like this would garner all kinds of attention from the wrong sort.
Two men approached from behind. "Well what have we here? How would you fine ladies like to come share a drink with us?" One of the sleezy patrons asked with more then a little lust in his tone as he eyed the forms of the two up and down.
Heinkel rolled her eyes behind her blacked out glasses. "No." Was her short and clipped response.
The grunt seemed to not like that response as his expression grew a little more sour. "Come on babe, jsut come and talk with us for a while. I'm sure we can become fast friends." HE said lecherously as his hand edged toward her shoulder.
However just before contact was made the man cried out in agony as his wrist was grabbed and cracking noise quickly followed. His eyes followed the offending limb to Alexis who was giving him an absolutely diabolic look over her shoulder. "What part of 'no' was that hard to understand exactly?" She asked.
The man grew enraged as his wrist was now dislocated and possibly broken. "You bitch! Do you know who I am!?" He shouted while struggling to free his hand from the increasingly painful grip. Alexis raised an eyebrow. "No not really" She replied matter of factly.
This just seemed to aggravate the man further. "I woke for Gato! He'll have your head for this!" He then screamed as the grip tightened further. "Oh, you work for Gato? Well that's good. Any of your friends here work for him?" She asked all to innocently.
"Damn straight we do!" Yelled a patron as every man in the bar except the barkeeper pulled out some kind of weapon.
"Good, plenty of chances then. Which means we don't need you." The last part was said to the man in her vice like grip. The hired thug went to speak only to feel an immense pain that dwarfed that of anything he'd ever experienced.
"What... The... Hell!?" Someone said getting louder with each word.
Everything in the bar stopped as all eyes were on the arm of the man screaming.
It looked like dozens of things were slithering around under the skin but never actually breaking the surface. They travelled all the way up his arm to his shoulder where they disappeared into his vested chest. However they didn't go for the neck. The whole time the seemingly infested man screamed at the top of his lungs. Then he stopped as the slithering seemed to halt not that everything was covered.
"You boss has caused allot of pain and grief to this country. Starvation, pain, poverty, slavery the list goes on! However this all pales in comparison to his most grievous of crimes. He has brought pain upon our Master. And for this he shall pay. You all shall pay." Alexis said like she was reciting from a bible.
Heinkel downed the last of her drink and turned on her stool. "The gates of hell hath open. Let me be thy guide." And with that said the thug still being held by Alexis exploded into a mess of chunks as Green vines covered with red thorns tore him apart and the duo descended upon the room like the hounds of hell themselves.
In Konoha the council had met to discuss what was going on with Team 7. "It seems Team 7 has run into trouble during their C-rank mission to Wave country. They were only supposed to protect a Bridge builder from bandits. However it seems the details were falsified and the rank of the mission has been bumped up to an A-rank." Hiruzen said as the council listened intently.
"A medic team has been dispatched under my orders to meet up with the team. One of them sustained serious injuries when they were attacked by one Zabuza Momochi under the orders of Gato of Gato shipping company. It seems he's taken over the Island through it's trading routes." Once more Hiruzen stopped and looked around to tell them the floor was open.
"What about Lord Uchiha? Is he ok?" A fat merchant called.
"Sasuke is fine. He was not the one to fall to injury." Hiruzen said
"what about my daughter!?"A pink haired women shouted in distress.
"Though your daughter is fine there is a matter we must discuss concerning her." Hiruzen said as the elder Haruno woman became pale.
"Naruto Uzumaki Hellsing sustained potentially life threatening injuries when your daughter Sakura used the boy for a substitution to avoid the blade of the enemy. Naruto found himself suddenly in the path of a poisoned weapon while using a technique that let him immobile. Your daughter has committed a grave offence in this. She will be detained by the medic team I have sent and transported back to Konoha where she will be charged with Assault of an allied ninja of Konoha as well as potential crippling of a ninja of Konoha." He said while the pinkette was nearly in tears.
"She's only a child!" she screamed.
"The moment she put on that headband she threw away her childhood and was recognised as an adult in the eyes of the village!" Hiruzen said with fire. "Naruto is no older then her and is now suffering for her actions! She put his life in jeopardy through her own actions! There is no more to say on the matter! The council is dismissed!" Hiruzen finished and left the room quickly.
"Where the hell were you Haku!" Zabuza shouted as a dark haired girl who stood in front of him trying to hold back her tears.
"You said not to interfere unless they were about to kill you." She explained.
Smack!
Zabuza back handed her and she fell to the floor with her face growing red. "I know what I said! That damn thing was going to get me at that rate so why didn't you assist me like the good little tool you are!" He continued in his rage now starring at the girl who had yet to rise from the floor.
"I bet you wanted him to get me huh!? So that you could get away. It's not right for a tool to run away. You are to serve me until you break and I no longer have use fo you. Then I will discard you on the side of the road where some fool can pick you up and find a use for you." He raged about.
Then suddenly the lights all went off. The room fell dark with the only light being the moon coming in through the windows. Zabuza looked around in a frenzy while Haku was focused on two points of the room.
"What the hells going on!" Zabuza shouted. "Haku get over here!" He said while dragging the girl from the floor and holding her in front of himself. However Haku was still starring at that same spot with wide eyes and Zabuza quickly noticed. "What the hell are you looking at?" He asked and followed her line of sight only to feel a slight shiver go up his spine.
In one of the shadowy corners of the room a pair of crimson orbs seemed to float in the air. "What the hell is that?" Zabuza asked. No response came and he quickly shoved Haku in the direction of the orbs only for them to seemingly fade away and for Haku to fall into the wall.
The ex kiri nin had a bad feeling he knew where he'd seen those malicious red orbs before and he watched as they appeared and disappeared over and over again in the shadows on the room.
Finally they stopped and it looked like part of Haku's boy was being actually blocked form view by the darkness. That was when a mouth full of razor sharp teeth seemed to rip open in the air before moving forwards into the moonlight.
Zabuza's eyes widened as the shadow he'd fought earlier that day stood before him. Smoke seemed to drift off it's form and it's eyes now looked jsut like red lights in it's skull.
"rrragh!" Zabuza screamed and quickly drew his weapon and swung at the phantasm only to see the large blade pass straight through once again. The shadow grinned widely and held out it's hand. more tendrils of smoke quickly coalesced into the form of it's black and grey form of Crimson wing and took a swing as Zabuza and slashed his arm.
"Gagh!" He grunted as the blade dug a small slash into his bicep. However he quickly got over the pain and hefted his Kubikiribōchō up into a defensive stance.
The shadow started hammering away at Zabuza's guard however this time it seemed to be aiming for the same point of the blade with every hit and Zabuza picked up on it rather quickly. 'He's trying to break the sword!' he thought in shock as another strike landed against the thick metal of the blade.
Then the part he started to fear began. A small crack started crawling across the blade. It wasn't anything significant and at this rate it would take quite a few more swings to actually break the blade. But then again this thing had as long as it wanted. He couldn't hit it back so it could just keep hammering away till he was left defenceless.
But Zabuza's faith in his blade holding out till he could formulate a plan were ill placed as the shadow suddenly leaped backwards and ran his hand over his own blade. Again the runes appeared and the edge became incandescent before he charged back in ith renewed vigour and now every time the blades met a small burst of energy would create hairline fractures all along the surface of the Kubikiribōchō as well as cutting small lines into Zabuza's skin.
Pretty soon the black wing was almost through the tough metal and with one final mighty swing cut straight through the blade and took out Zabuza's right arm from the shoulder.
The expert swordsman stumbled back with a scream and a curse as h clutched the bloody stump while the shadow watched with vioent glee twinkling in its eyes.
Deciding to take one last hope to survive Zabuza moved quickly and grabbed Haku from the ground where she'd been the whole time watching in wonder as Zabuza seemed doomed against this force of nature that never seemed to cease.
Now Zabuza stood with Haku held firmly infront of himself while choking her out as to make sure she was too frantic to get out. The shadow stood across the room for once a grin no where to be seen on it's face. It almost looked disappointed. Then time seemed to slow as it lunged forwards with the tip of the sword pointed directly at Haku's heart and by extension Zabuza.
The moment the shadow's sword made contact with Haku it seemingly dissolved into smoke only to reappear on the other side right between Zabuza's chest and Haku's back. The rest soon followed and this time it pierced Zabuza like it should have Haku and the man was pushed through the room and stuck to the wall. The shadow's grin returned and it leaned in right next to his ear. "It seems you've met with a terrible fate. Haven't you?" It asked in a whispery, hoarse voice. Like the sound of it speaking was unnatural.
The light slowly faded from Zabuza's eyes as he died. The shadow then removed it's sword from the corpse and the wall before turning around and walking straight past Haku. However she caught his arm."Wait!" She almost screamed and then recoiled as the shadows crimson eyes now rested solely on her. However this was her chance to make it up to the person she'd helped hurt. "Take me with you, please." She begged.
The shadow just raised an eyebrow at her request. Seeing this as a prompt to plead her case Haku quickly started speaking. "Zabuza had me by my side not by choice." She said and moved the hair away from her neck to show a strange looking seal seemingly burned into the skin. "The seal acts as a sort of slavery seal. If I try to do something against his will or if I disobey him It causes immense pain and at will he could trigger the seal to attack my brain and kill me." This got a scowl from the shadow aimed at the dead man. He was a part of Naruto and thus shared rather similar morals when it came to the matter of slavery. However this didn't explain why he should take her and so he made a continue motion with his hand.
"Well, Zabuza forced me to make the poison he used on the... other you?" She said the last part not really sure what too him. "I don't have a cure but I can slow the poison down. I assume medics are coming to help if they aren't already there and I can give them time. Please let me repay you for helping me at least." She begged again.
The shadow grew thoughtful for a moment. Since it technically had access to all of Naruto's emotions right now it could act on his behalf. A nod was his answer and the girl quickly brightened up. "Ok, wait here I need to grab some things!" She seemed a little too excited about all this in the shadows opinion.
A few moments of Haku running back and forth with a large bag grabbing bits and bobs, she stood before the shadow with a rather large smile plastered on her face. With a shrug from the phantasm the two quickly left with Haku tree hopping behind a large black smoky cloud as it travelled through the forest.
Three hours had passed since the shadow had arrived with Haku at the house. She quickly explained to everyone what happened and they looked to the shadow for confirmation when needed which came in the form of a nod. Alexis and Heinkel had returned shortly before them.
It came as quite a shock to everyone though to see the shadowy version of Naruto moving completely independent of it's original.
So now Haku was applying a sort of salve to the afflicted area on Naruto's arm. The wound was not looking healthy at all but it was still very much salvageable. At first the dark haired girl found it difficult to work with Yumie being within arms reach every time she went near Naruto and not even blinking however she soon started to ignore the fact.
She was given the benefit of the doubt when Naruto started showing signs of the affliction slowing. The veins in his arm and up to his shoulder had been turning black to show the progress of the poison however now they seemed to not be progressing any further.
Alexis noticed something off about the girl the moment she walked in the room however right now she was the only thing stopping her Master from suffering further pain so until he was safely restored to health the ex paladin wasn't going to push the fact.
"You know, Naruto might be able to remove that mark on your neck?" Alexis said from her position against the wall as per usual. During her work Haku's hair had moved out of the way giving the tall blonde a good view of the mark.
They all picked up on the falter in her working when that was said. Everything was silent for a moment and no one moved. "C-could he really?" It was barely a whisper. The mark was a horrible reminder of the many years spent with her recently killed owner.
Alexis looked to the shadow who hadn't gone back yet. He was acting as a spokesman for Naruto during his absence from the land of the concious. The monochromatic clone gained a thoughtful look again. It still looked wrong. It then pointed at itself and shook it's head as to say 'no'. And Haku's face fell. She'd truly gotten her hopes up. However the shadow then pointed at the original and shook his head yes.
"I thought so. You might not suffer from fatigue like he does but you can't use allot of Mana can you?" Heinkel asked having spoken for the first time in a while. Her answer came in the form of the shadow nodding it's head in agreement.
"It'd really only be a matter of building up enough Mana to completely overload the seal. It'd fry itself out before it triggered." Alexis said.
"What do you mean by Mana?" Haku asked.
"Mana is basically a much more high quality version of chakra. It has the same volume as Chakra however is several times denser meaning you use less to do things. It's also more manipulatable meaning you're not bound by using Jutsu. Instead Mana users use spells which are far less restrictive." Alexis explained.
Haku seemed to understand and nodded. "Alright, I'm willing to give it a try." She said happily.
The medics arrived on time that night and were quick to praise Haku on her ability to slow the poison. They made it very clear that if she hadn't done it they would have been too late. After several hours of intense work the poison was finally flushed from Naruto's system and they finally stitched the wound couldn't do it until now due to the poison.
Now naruto just needed to rest and let it naturally heal. Which they noticed was happening pretty quickly The estimate was that it'd be done in maybe a few days. However they did make an observation of the fact that the arm seemed to not regain it's colour. It stayed a pasty white and only after the shoulder did it start to shift into his usual tanner complexion.
After Naruto was fixed up the Medics made quick work of explaining the situation to Kakashi pertaining to Sakura. The pinkette was horrified at what she heard and as they dragged her from the home of Tsunami called back to Sasuke in the hopes he would save her. He just looked on apathetically and with a non committal grunt turned his head.
It was at that moment that Sakura started struggling even harder. 'He's testing me! He wants to see if I can be strong!' She thought while trying to clinge to the little hope she had. However the medics quickly grew tired of her and injected her with a strong paralysis.
Kakashi sat at the small table across from Sasuke who seemed indifferent about the whole ordeal. He was thinking about the fact they're team would be put on standby until a new member became available.
With a heavy sigh Kakashi got up from the table and started towards the room Naruto was in. Upon knocking on the door he got a quiet come in. Once more everyone was in the same places as they always seemed to be with the addition on Haku on the other side of Yumie. "How's Naruto?" He asked while stepping in and closing the door.
"He's doing well now that the poison isn't there any more. We're expecting him to awaken soon." Haku said.
'she seems to be fitting in well with these three.' Kakashe thought to himself. He casually noticed that Yumie had her glasses off and yet she seemed stable almost calm. *groan*
"Did anyone get the face of the guy that hit me?" Naruto groaned out as his eyes slowly opened. However his sight was quickly lost again amoungst the breast of Yumie. "Oh thank Kami you're alive!" The nun cried out.
Muffled sounds came from Naruto's head before he managed to wriggle his way out of the death grip. He took in large gulps of air. "Can't... Breath..." He said in between breaths.
Once regaining his composure and looked around the room as well as the bandages covering his arm that he now noticed hurt to move too much. "How long have I been out?" he asked.
"Two or three days." He informed from over his porn.
Naruto nodded and then became aware of the dark haired girl on his left side that was watching him very closely. "I think someone should catch me up on what I missed." He said.
So the next hour was spent recounting everything that had happened since Naruto went under. He was shocked to hear his shadow had killed Zabuza but as 'Haku' as she introduced herself recounted the fight Naruto could oddly envision in all from a first person perspective from his shadow. That would be something to look into later.
After hearing about Yumiko departing and leaving Yumie as the sole inhabitant of the body he was quick to console the woman who simply thanked him with a smile and a bow. He then turned to Haku. "It would be best if we confronted the easiest task first. So if you could let me see this seal." With that Haku nodded and turned around before parting her hair to show Naruto the obedience seal.
The redhead scowled at the mark and softly placed his injured hand against the seal. "I don't know if this will hurt or not but if it does I am truly sorry." He said and started letting the familiar feeling of Mana flowing into his hand. He wasn't sure how much he needed so Naruto started pumping it into the seal trying not to trigger it. Then when he felt a sort of block when his Mana stopped flowing in he knew it was at it's limit so he gathered up a large dam in his hand and in one quick go pumped it straight into the already full reserve effectively shattering it.
The effects were instantaneous in the form of the burn mark literally melting away like it was done with ink. Naruto wiped it up with his hand. "There. One horrible seal made by a dirty cruel man gone. One ex slave free to make her on choices and do as she wants." Naruto said with a smile.
Haku was nearly in tears. Not because of pain as it was a truly painless process. It was because the last thing connecting her to that horrible life had been literally wiped away by this person she hardly knew. However it was there and then she made her decision. She knew what she wanted to do.
"So now it's time for the big question. What is it you want to do, Haku?" He asked genuinely curious. He was stunned when the girl turned to him teary eyed with a smile and bowed low. "I have spoken with Alexis, Heinkel and Yumie and they've agreed to take me into Iscariot so long as I gain your blessing." She said.
Naruto wasn't sure what to say. He looked to the three women and received nods saying what Haku said was true. He then looked back to the girl with her head pressed to the floor. He placed a hand on her shoulders and pulled her up to look at him. "Well who am I to say what you can and can't do?" He said.
Haku's face lit up and she pounced at him knocking him over gripping him rather tightly. He would have let her stay there if not for the fact she had his injured arm included in the constriction. So as is customary when one is put in a position of pain they can't escape from he let out his agony in a scream.
"fffffffffffuuuuuuuuUUUUUUCCCCCCKKKKKKKKK!"
Oh the drama! Oh the scandal! Oh the tragedy! Oh the tuna! Wait... What?
Anyway that's the latest chapter. Not much to say here that aint up top so yuuup...
