By: HeavenlydemonxXxo

I seriously wanna be a famous author someday. But my dear encouraging friend, Mina, is HOLDING ME BACK! NOOOOOOOOOOOOO im just playin Mina don't hurt me hehe

Disclaimer: Still not owning Naruto.Pooey.

today: some random guy came knocking on my door and told me that he ran out toilet paper and he needed to either borrow some or use my toilet. that wasnt gonna happen so i slammed the door on him. i dont think he was being serious tho since he was laughing his head off while he was asking me and his friends were like obviously in front of my house on a golfcart. P - A - T - H - E - T - I - C anyhoo...

hehehe sorry if in this chapter kaneshi might seem like a supergirl or somethin

she kinda did to me, but i worked hard on writing this so - no flames!

Zabuza started laughing, which startled me. He was on the brink of life or death yet he could still laugh it off.

"Is this the end? You just don't get it. You can't defeat me with your indiscriminate imitations. I can assure you that. But you're pretty good. I see that you copied my water clone technique when you said, 'I won't let anyone on my team die.' By making your clone speak as if it was the real one, made me divert my attention to that clone... while the real you used the Mist concealment technique to hide and observe my movements. However, I'm not that easy to defeat!"

The real Zabuza was behind Kakashi sensei. "WATCH OUT! HE'S BEHIND YOU!" shouted Naruto. Zabuza swung his sword. Iquickly looked away. I couldn't watch. The sword crashed to the ground. 'It didn't hit Kakashi sensei!' Turning my head back around I saw Zabuza kicking Kakashi sensei away.

"KAKASHI SENSEI!" I screamed. Zabuza was running at high speed towards him. Suddenly he stopped. There was a glint of metal on the ground. 'Traps!' Zabuza jumped off and submerged into the water. That was when Kakashi sensei's head came out. Zabuza appeared behind him again. He was performing a seal.

I stared in horror. Kakashi sensei was in a water prison! Zabuza was talking, but I couldn't hear a word he was saying. If Kakashi sensei was defeated and put in a water prison there was NO way for us to defeat him! We were going to die, with no recognition, I'll never have met my goal as a ninja! To think that we died on the way and failed our mission! Tears were coming up now in my eyes. I didn't want to die! Not yet!

"You four are not ninjas." I caught that last sentence. My eyes narrowed. True, I didn't work as hard as I could to become a ninja, but I wasn't about to hear that from the freaky serial killer that we were fighting. At that moment, Naruto fell back with his forehead protector flying midair. A foot landed on it.

"You are nothing but kids." I was furiously angry.

"Everyone! Get Tazuna san and run!" Kakashi sensei ordered. "You can't win against him!" I gave sensei a dirty look. Even he was saying what I didn't want to hear! "He can't move as long as he has me in this water prison. He also wont be able to use his water clone once you get away from him! Run for now!"

I gazed around at everyone else. Sakura looked scared, but Sasuke... he looked somewhat like how I felt right now. He ran for Zabuza. It all happened so quickly. In the end, Sasuke was thrown back at me.He crashed into me and we both fell back. I quickly stood back up and released chakra into my jacket and covered myself with it. I disappeared. Making sure that none of the jacket showed me, I made a dash for Zabuza.Swiftly andquietly, I took a leap and aimed a kick at his head. It was almost like there was a moment when I could've made it. He grabbed my leg and swung me away. I crashed into a tree. I thought I heard something crack in my body. Testing everything, I got back up. My head was bleeding and my legs were bruised.Looking ahead, I saw Naruto, terrified, at Zabuza's feet. He was shaking, and looked like he was about to run away. 'No, Naruto!' I screamed inside my head. Then he stopped shaking. Something just took over him. He stood up, with his fist clenched and gritting his teeth. He ran at Zabuza like Sasuke.

"Idiot! No!" screamed Kakashi sensei.

I was held speechless. Even if he was stupid, I figured he would've taken the hint by how Sasuke and I were thrown back. Blood was spilt. As the dust cleared, I saw Naruto on the ground. I was hoping that he wasn't fatally injured or something like that.

"What are you thinking? Charging in by yourself like that!" yelled Sakura. "Even Sasuke kun is no match against him! Genins like ourselves have no way of defeating him, no matter how much we tr-"

I put my hand on her. What she was saying, I disagreed with. Ok, Sasuke failed against him, Kakashi sensei failed against him, and Naruto was being an idiot to charge by himself like that. But... to say that we can't defeat him, no matter how much we try... That was the one thing that I wasn't going to listen to. I noticed Naruto was struggling to getback up. Right then I realized why he charged at him. In his hand, was his forehead protector.

"Hey... the no brow there..." said Naruto. "Put this in your bingo book... the man who will become Hokage of the Hidden Village of Konoha one day... The Konoha style ninja, Uzumaki Naruto!"

I learned one thing about Naruto that day. No matter how stupid he might act, or how clueless he really is, or even how bad he might be... in the end, he always showed everyone what he truly was, and that he would never give up. It was always like that, all the way back to when I first went to school in Konoha.

"Sasuke, lend me your ear for a second."

"What do you want?"

"I have a plan."

"... I can't believe you want to work as a team."

"Let's go wild now."

I couldn't help myself. I laughed a bit on the last thing he said.

"You seem to be pretty confident, but do you even have a chance of victory?" said Zabuza.

"WHAT ARE YOU ALL DOING? I TOLD YOU TO RUN! THE OUTCOME OF THIS BATTLE WAS ALREADY DECIDED ON WHEN I GOT CAUGHT!" shouted Kakashi sensei. "Our mission is to protect Tazuna san. Did you forget that!"

"Old man..." said Naruto. I looked behind me too. It was true, what sensei was saying.

"Don't worry, I caused all of this in the first place. I wont say I want to survive no matter what. Sorry everyone. You can fight all you want " said Tazuna san. I patted him andbeamed at him. "Thank you, Tazuna san." I said softly.

Sasuke grinned. "That's how it is." he said.

"Are you ready?" said Naruto.

"You don't learn do you..." said Zabuza.

"What?" asked Naruto.

"Still pretending to be a ninja? ... When I was your age, my hands were already soaked in blood."

"The Demon Zabuza..." said Kakashi sensei.

"I see you've heard of me."

"He is from the Village of the Mist, or also known as the Village of the Bloody Mist."

"Hmph. It seems like you know about the final test."

'Final test? Does he mean the graduation exam? the chuunin exam? Nani?'

"Final test? What final test?" asked Naruto.

Zabuza laughed. Abruptly he stopped. "Students killing each other." I gasped. "Friends who have eaten from the same pot, are separated into two and forced to fight each other... to the death. This is done with friends that helped each other, shared each other's dreams, and competed together."

I couldn't listen anymore. Hearing the word monster, I supposed it referred to Zabuza. Putting two and two together I knew what they were saying. Zabuza, the monster, probably killed all the students without hesitation. Maybe even enjoyed it.

"That was fun." said Zabuza.

He knocked down Sasuke, and kicked him in the stomach so hard, that blood came bursting out of his mouth. "Die..."

I screamed.

"KAGEBUNSHIN NO JUTSU!" Naruto's clone minions surrounded Zabuza. They all jumped him. None of them hit Zabuza and were poofed away. Naruto, who was sliding on the ground, rummaged through his bag and pulled out a windmill shuriken.

"Sasuke!" and he passed it to him.

"The Fuuma Shuriken, or the Shadow Windmill." said Sasuke.

"A shuriken won't work on me." scoffed Zabuza.

Sasuke threw it. But not for the water clone, but aiming for the real one. Zabuza caught it. Then the second shuriken was coming at him. 'Yes!' Zabuza jumped and dodged it. I was disappointed. Then the second one made a U-turn. I realized where this was going. Naruto poofed back. "THIS IS THE SPOT!" he threw a kunai at him.
