I hereby warn any and all who like Haku. This chapter will be a particular chapter that Haku fans may not like SORRY! *hands Haku plushies to the fans* Don't Leave!!!!.....HOWEVER! I am thinking of bringing back his soul to help defeat an enemy........

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was time for some payback........

The fox's large muscles bulged visibly, though tawny fur tried to hide it. Turning, its body moved to face the hated foe. Sasuke lay silently beneath the mamoth animal, unmoving. This only seemed to enrage the fox even more, if it was so possible.

Something akin to sorrow flashed through the eyes of the demon fox after glancing briefly at Sasuke but it dissapeared as soon as it came. Faster than anyone could blink, or even have a thought for that matter, the kitsune lunged in a jag of lightening. Naruto was a blur of fang, claw, and fur in the air and everything seemed to slow down for the onlookers.

Kakashi couldn't keep up with Naruto's movements....he couldn't. There was only one way to describe that kind of speed and that would damn fast. The mysterious fighter moved quickly enough but there was nothing he couldn't keep up with with his eyes, nothing.

Never have I seen something, anything that moves this fast.......There is at all nothing we can do to stop him if he doesn't recognize us. Any doubts I had in not defeating him have just been pulled out from underneath us. Our survival is now riding on Naruto. He MUST recoginze us if we are to survive this little encounter.

Sakura (you know, I think I should kill that guy, whats his name? The guy they're protecting, its not like he'll play any part in this anyway.......) stood stock still. One minute there was a three and a half foot tall at the shoulder fox standing over Sasuke and the next it was gone.........She began to search frantically for it only to find its inch long canines embedded in the shoulder of Haku.

(This part will get particularly bloody, so yeah. Fair warning)

Naruto, in his crazed state of mind, was enjoying the sweet taste of the blood in his mouth. Haku would pay for what he did to Sasuke. His claws dug themselves into the ground to gain a level ground. Without any effort at all, the youko flipped Haku at least fifty feet into the air as if he were a ragdoll, flecks of blood raining down onto the fox, speckling him red.

Rearing onto its hind legs, it pawed at the air, snapping his open maw at the dropping form. Leaping like a hyperactive border collie chasing a frisbee, he deftly caught Haku by the arm, teeth raking his entire body as it was jerked to a stop. Screaming, Haku desperatly reached for the jaws, attempting in vain to remove those locked teeth from his painfilled body. As a dog with a rope toy, Naruto whipped the boy's body around like a toy.

Haku was beyond tears at the moment, he was in so much pain. Dropping the body, the kitsune snarled, blood dripping from the deadly teeth, its hot breath causing slight burns on Haku's torn body. Taking a paw, Naruto swiped at the form beneath him, sending it flying into the side of the bridge, causing an audible crack on impact.

Screaming to the cloudy sky, Haku's body was now literally a bag of bones and skin. Even the mask he wore had long since fallen off. The only thing keeping him alive was the pain he was experiencing. That was the only thing that kept his soul in the torn body for it was long since dead.

Eyes glinting like red sapphires, the fox approached, one deadly clawed paw in front of the other, all five tails maliciously gliding behind him like a cape. Even it knew when one had enough pain, but Naruto wasn't done yet. The maw moved behind Haku's head to almost gently grab the back of his shirt. Lifting its head, Naruto mournfully walked slowly over to the motionless body of Sasuke, allowing Haku to swing freely back and forth from his closed jaws.

Upon seeing the the presumably 'dead' Sasuke, Haku desperatly wished he had never even looked at the boy. Then again, he would have never known in his inicial attack that Naruto was indeed the nine-tailed demon fox banished so long ago.

The fox shook its head back and forth violently, shaking Haku and causing him more pain. It was as if Naruto had been saying 'no! no! bad fox kit!' to a younger fox, teaching it a lesson. Naruto seemed to be punishing Haku even further. The shaking stopped as Naruto was finished, and tossed the torn body of Haku behind him, where the boy was happy to just silently close his eyes in internal sleep.

Zabuza had had enough. He was shaking with pure rage at his partner (we all know you loved him! ADMIT IT DAMNIT!!!) being killed in such a way. His eyes were bloodshot as he grabbed his kunai visciously, leaping at the prepared fox.

Naruto sidestepped daintly out of the way, catching one of Zabuza's legs in his iron grinding maw and swung him around in a 180 degree spin, more blood flecks speckling the fox. Smiling in a foxlike way, Naruto leaped, front paws smashing onto Zabuza, claws making deep gashes everywhere. Bringing his face forward, Naruto snarled, little blood droplets dripping onto Zabuza's shocked face.

All this had happened in less than a minute, and Naruto had had enough. Snatching the demon up in his mouth, he flipped the broken body over the railing and into the ocean, never to be seen again. (hehe I like Zabuza better, so I made his death quick *ducks flying objects*) A small splash was heard on impact, water spraying up into the air as the sun set.

Across the entire setting of the sun was a mix of colors...............

.................. all related to a blood red.

I will admit it, this was a pretty short chappie, sorry guys. To all yaoi haters, this will be yaoi. This is my first time writing it but oh well! Most of my fans (^^ I cant believe I can say that truthfully) have already guessed the pairing. If you still don't know than it will come as a surprise!

I would like to take the time to THANK my reviewers! You guys really boost my ego! I'm thinking about bringing Naruto and Sasuke themselves to do the author rant with meh...Dunno yet. Believe it or not I haven't decided how Naruto will change back yet.....OR the enemy. Here is your choice of enemy if you care to vote.... Itachi or an original enemy (where I introduce the enemy for lack of any other force of evil). THANX REVIEWERS! Keep it up!
