9: Zero Viability: the Sharingan Shatter & the Broke Seal!

Suiren Uzumaki: The disclaimer: I do not own Naruto cause if I did then Sakura wouldn't be a useless fan girl in pre-shippuden and Naruto would have his Father's smarts while keeping his Mother's personality and knows about seals and how to use to them. I do, however, own Akito Senju. Remember to Read and Review to let me know what you think. Also if you don't like any twist that I might make then stop reading and find something else to read plus don't leave a review that's a flame or I will find a way to block you. Ja ne!

...My Line…

"Sasuke, Naruto!" Hinata called out to them. "Please be careful!

"Don't Hinata," Akito warned her. "Don't push them."

"Huh?"

"Even if they some how found away to over come the Mirror Jutsu they still couldn't defeat this Ninja," the Senju stated.

"How can you be sure?" the Hyuuga asked.

Zabuza started laughing though he never took his eyes off Akito.

"They have the desire to win, but they don't have the instincts to kill," the silver hair Jonin answered. "That boy's a whole other breed, he lives for pain, thrives on it."

"Exactly," Zabuza agreed. "Your village became complacent. Your trainees never learn the most important lesson of all. To kill the feelings in their hearts, to crush an opponent mercilessly, to destroy with no emotion over regret."

"But then..." the Hyuuga said startled. "Sensei what are we going to do? Please tell us?"

'I could make a break to save Naruto and Sasuke, but he'll slay the bridge-builder,' Akito thought as he looked over his choices. 'If I use Shadow Clones he'll just match them with Water Clones. I'll just be wasting Chakra. So I have no choice, it's me or Zabuza here and now.' The silver hair Jonin has he closed his eyes. 'I'll to do this the hard way.'

'The Sharingan.'

"Sharingan?" Zabuza asked. "Your no fun Akito. Using the same old trick."

Zabuza pulled out a weird looking Kunai and charged at Akito before aiming at his eyes surprising him and Hinata as the Senju snapped his eyes opened just in time.

"Sensei! No!"

The Senju raised his right hand and blocked the Kunai before it could harm his eyes, but he did have a glare in place.

"If it's just an old trick then why did you just stop me?" the silver hair adult asked.

"If you let your opponent see your jutsu one to many times he'll find away to use it against you," Zabuza answered.

"Then you could count yourself lucky," the Senju told him. "Cause your the only man alive, who have seen my Sharingan twice. There won't be a third time."

"Even if you did defeat me," Zabuza started. "You have no chance against Haku."

'Is that possible?' Hinata thought as she looked at the Crystal Ice Mirrors. 'That that boy in the mask is stronger then Akito-Sensei?'

"When I found him, he was just a street kids, but I trained him in the most advance ninja techniques," Zabuza started to brag. "I thought him everything I know plus he had special abilities that he had defined on his own. The boy develop quickly soon he could face the most powerful enemy, out number, in total darkness it didn't matter. He could strike with perfect accuracy. He cared nothing of his own life or those of others. He became a unique fighting machines a shinobi. In the end his power surpass even mine, his bloodline trait the Kekkei Genkai can not be defeated by anyone. I've created a tool who can destroy anything that stand in my way." Zabuza pulled out his kunai from Akito's hand. "Unlike the useless punks that follow you around.."

...My Line...

Inside the ice mirrors, the two boys where kneeling.

"I didn't get to him," Naruto said. "Then I'll try again as many times as to takes."

"Naruto don't!" Sasuke yelled.

"Naruto stop!"

Haku once again attacked all three of them. Naruto once again landed next to his teammates after the attack.

"How is he doing that?" Naruto asked.

'It was barely there, but I saw it,' Sasuke thought. 'I could see the trails and follow his moves.'

"One more time," Naruto said as he formed the hand sign. "Shadow Clone Jutsu!"

"Don't you see that it's useless?" Haku asked.

Naruto once again made clones, but Haku took the clones down again, however, Sasuke did kick water up into the air when Naruto tried to attack the mirrors. However, Haku attacked all three of them and sent them to the ground hard, but Sasuke slowly got to their feet.

'I can see his movements, but that doesn't mean I can match him,' thought Sasuke. 'The water it's being repealed. What if I try something else? Now water, but...' Sasuke had closed his eyes for a bit before he opened them. 'Yes. Now it's my move.'

...My Line...

"You think that those Genin punks together can beat Haku?" Zabuza asked. "He's the ultimate Shinobi. A battle tool of distraction."

"Are you done bragging?" the silver hair Jonin asked. "Your starting to put me to sleep." Akito pulled his forehead protector up to uncover his Sharingan eye. "Let's finish this now!"

"Fine, but there's one more thing you should know," Zabuza answered/told him. "A little more bragging as you say."

"Huh?"

"Did you really think that our last battle was just a win or lose that I took your attacks like a mare rank Genin?" Zabuza asked. "Haku was there hiding, watching your every move, studying your Sharingan. Haku can see a jutsu once and automatically divide a lethal counter attack. It's one of his gifts. I've been waiting to see the look on your face when you realize your Sharingan has become worthless. You once said that the same jutsu won't work on you twice. Well, I'm going to tell you that."

"Huh?"

Zabuza created a hand sign so he could do a jutsu.

"Ninja Art: Hidden Mist Jutsu!"

'This is is,' the Senju thought.

'What's going on?' Tazuna thought as he looked around. 'The mist is so thick. Visibility is Zero.'

"Sensei?"

"Hinata stay with Tazuna," Akito ordered.

'I have to be strong and believe in Sasuke, Naruto, and Akito-Sensei,' Hinata thought. "And I have my job to do no matter what it takes."

Hinata turned around and ran back to Tazuna which surprised him.

"Oh, Hinata."

"Follow my lead Mr. Tazuna and whatever happens stay close."

"Alright I'll stay right behind you."

...My Line...

Haku looked at them as they seem deep in thought.

'I know you need me, Zabuza, I'll finish them off quickly,' Haku thought.

"Shadow Clone Jutsu!" Naruto shouted as he made the hand sign which caused Haku to gasp.

'He just won't give up,' Haku thought before he launch an attack against Naruto when out of nowhere a fireball head towards him. 'What?' He looked at Sasuke as he dodged. 'Fireball Jutsu?' Haku once again launch an attack on Naruto. 'It shouldn't be taking this long to defeat them.'

Sasuke once again took a deep breath and blow out fire which Haku dodge, but it did get the heme of his pants. Naruto then landed behind Sasuke before he slowly got up.

'Got him that time,' thought Sasuke. 'I'm starting to get the timing.'

Sasuke had a smirk as he looked at the burnt part of Haku's pants. However, the Senju was looking around for Zabuza, who just disappeared from in front of him.

...My Line...

'It's the Hidden Mist Jutsu, but this mist is to thick even for Zabuza,' Akito thought. 'How can he fight in it?'

The silver hair Ninja spun around and blocked shurikens that he heard come at him from behind.

"Very skillful as I expected from Akito, the Sharingan Warrior."

Zabuza appeared in front of Akito with his eyes closed surprising the Sharingan user.

'He's eyes are closed.'

"The next time you see me is the last time you see anything," Zabuza told him. "Without your Sharingan your nothing."

"What?'

"You wanted me to believe that you can see through anything even through time," Zabuza answered. "But, your predication was wrong I'm still alive so your a fraud Akito. You can't read the future and you can't ready me. The Sharingan is just a cheap trick that makes it seem your more powerful then you are. I know now that your Sharingan has two separate elements. The piercing eye that sees every detail and the hypnotic eye which mesmerizes your opponent. Employing these ability you can execute multiple Jutsu at a quick succession to make it seem like you can see into the future. First, with the piercing eyes you copy my movements instantly. This replica of movements makes me doubt my own thought. Once I was shaken your infiltrated my mind waiting for the slights flow and intermediate my actions seeking out any hints to my next move. You time it precisely waiting for the right moment. The instant that my mind come unfocused you created an illusion with your hypnotic eyes. You reduce me to make hand signs when you were making the same signs so you seem to be copying me when actually your controlling me movements. Now that I know this a very simple plan can defeat you. First neutralized your piercing you with zero visibility mist."

Zabuza was able to land a blow on the silver hair Shinobi making him to skid back some.

"The mist is slowing me reaction time."

"Next neutralized your hypnotic eyes by keeping my own eyes close," Zabuza went on. "You can't border into my mind if you can't look into my eyes."

"Brilliant," the silver hair Jonin praised. "Expect with your eyes closed you can't see me either. Oh, also I only need a few hand signs or one to use my Water Jutsu!" The rogue Mist Ninja gasped. "After all I am the Grandson of the Nidaime Hokage!"

"Have you forgotten about, who I am Akito?" Zabuza asked. "I'm the Demon of the Hidden Mist, master of the Silent Kill. I can take you out by sound alone!" He then scuffed. "Though I didn't think that you would have the same ability as your Grandfather with the Water Element. You are just full of surprises, huh?"

...My Line...

Sasuke glaring at Haku not knowing where he is.

'He read my movement, but that's not possible,' Haku thought as he looked at Sasuke in shock.

"I was so close, bit I couldn't quite get to him," Naruto mumbled.

"Naruto!" Sasuke called out making the blond to look at him.

"Huh?"

"Can you do it again?" Sasuke asked.

"Of course!" Naruto answered. "Nothing can stop me, ya know?!"

'He don't want to shot, but he's exhausted,' thought Sasuke. 'The Shadow Clone Jutsu uses up so much charka, but thanks to him, I'd figured it out. I know how to break through.'

'The human eye can not track my movements,' thought Haku. 'It must have been a flock.'

The mirrors lite up at once and Sasuke quickly performed hand signs.

"Naruto ran for it!" Sasuke ordered.

"Huh?"

"Get out of here and attack from the outside!" Sasuke once again ordered. "Hurry."

"Huh?" Naruto asked before he got a determined look. "alright, you got it."

"You can not escape," Haku told him.

Naruto started to run, but he was thrown backwards, however, he got up and ran for the middle of two mirrors.

"You think, you can keep me here?" Naruto asked. "Forget it!"

Just them Haku shot out of the mirror he was in towards Naruto.

"That's it," Sasuke said. "Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!"

Sasuke took a breath and launched a fireball at the masked boy as Haku easily dodged the fireball and threw a senbone at Sasuke that nailed him in the shoulders before he knocked Naruto back.

"I couldn't get pass him," Naruto told them as he stood up.

"That's was good Naruto," Sasuke said as he pulled out the senbone.

"Huh?"

"Now," Sasuke growled out. "One more time?"

"Yeah, let's do it," Naruto agreed.

'There must be a limit to his charka, too,' thought Sasuke. 'I can feel him slowing down.'

Naruto and Sasuke all took off in different detraction to try and get out of the mirrors.

'No more games,' thought Haku in annoyances. 'I need to stop this now!' Haku targeted Sasuke. "This time you'll stay down!"

Haku throw two senbone that hit Sasuke in the calves.

"Sasuke!" Naruto called out when he heard his cries of pain that was caused by Haku unleashing more senbone on them.

Haku then did the same to Naruto, but this time they were sticking out of their bodies.

...My Line...

'An enemy you can't see and you can't hear?' Akito thought. 'It's been a long time since I've face anyone this tough. And Sasuke, Naruto. I don't know if they can hold out.' The Senju closed his eyes. 'Stay calm, think. Where well he strike?' At that the 26-year-old's eyes snapped opened as he looked a different way. "The bridge-builder!"

Akito took off heading for where Hinata and Tazuna where standing waiting for something to happen when Zabuza appeared behind them making them to turn, but the Senju got in the way.

"To late!" Zabuza yelled as he swing his sword at them.

The Hyuuga's scream could be heard through out the bridge and part of the village.

...My Line...

'That scream...that was Hinata,' thought Sasuke. 'What's happening to her? Where's Akito?'

"Hinata...she's in...trouble," Naruto manged to get out making Sasuke to look at him.

'We've got to break through,' Sasuke once again thought looking away.

"I'll bust us out of here," Naruto said as he stood which made Sasuke to look at him again.

'Naruto?' thought both Sasuke.

"I'll fake him out," Naruto told them as he stood up.

"You've exhausted my petitions," Haku growled.

Naruto put his hand in a hand sign before he took off at a quick run, but he ended up doing a back flip when Haku appeared in front of him.

"Naruto!" Sasuke yelled. "Behind you!" Naruto stopped and turned around to only get hit by needles again. "Naruto!"

"Your chance of escaping my house of mirrors is zero and that is absolute," Haku told them.

Sasuke ran over to Naruto.

"Naruto, are you able to get up?" Sasuke asked as his blond teammate tried to set up. "Try not to use any more charka, that's only going to help him now."

"I know Sasuke, I know," Naruto said before he passed out.

'We can't go on like this,' thought Sasuke. 'He's blocking every move we make. I've got to find away to out maneuver him.' "My eyes has adjusted to his movements."

"Looking for a counter attack?" Haku asked them. "I'll save you the trouble." Sasuke picked up a senbone from the ground and blocked all of the senbone that was thrown at him and Naruto. "What?"

"Get up loser," Sasuke ordered Naruto. "We've got to team up."

'I'm aiming at their vital spots now, but I can't get a direct hit,' thought Haku in shock.

"I know what we have to do," Naruto told Sasuke as he sat up. "Ya know, Sasuke."

Haku once again started to throwing needles at them, but Sasuke worked to block them.

'It's not just luck,' Haku thought as he continued to throw needles. 'His fighting to protect his friend. That's why his so determined, but he can't possibly see the needles coming.' When Haku throw the needles at Sasuke, he pushed Naruto out of the way while he jumped out of the line of the needles. "My movements are beyond human speed and yet their tracking them somehow. Whatever their doing I've got to stop them now.'

Sasuke gasp in shock when Haku disappeared.

'He disappeared,' thought Sasuke as he looked around for the Ice Jutsu user. "Where did he go? How can he just vanish?" Sasuke moved their heads back and forth for their enemy. "Naruto, you better not pass out again. Come on, let's go. I can't keep protecting you like this."

"Well, then don't," Naruto told them. "I never asked for your two help."

Naruto passed out again which made Sasuke to look at him.

"You can't revive him," Haku told the Konoha Ninja. "He's reached his limits." Sasuke throw the senbone that he was holding at the mirror that Haku was in, but it bounced off. "Impressive, you two have exalt moves." Haku held up some senbones. "Your attacks are very skillful." Haku throw more senbone at them, but the dodged once again. "But, you reached your limits as well. Motorfuctions, reflexes, judgment, your abilities are weakening slowly, but surly. Now your finished!"

'Here he comes,' thought Sasuke. 'Stay calm, focus, concentrate, see everything.'

Haku come out of the mirror and attacked Sasuke, who jumped out of the way, though he had grabbed Naruto to get him out of the line of the needles.

'They saw every move, but there no way they could do that,' Haku thought as Sasuke put Naruto down panting before he looked up with crimson eyes. 'Impossible. Those eyes; the Sharingan.' "Your..."

'It's not complete, but I can see through his deception,' thought Sasuke.

'So he, too, has Kekkei Genkai,' Haku thought as he looked over at him. 'The unique bloodline trait passed down within a clan. Interesting. Even though it's not perfected to uncover it during a lethal attack is an amazing feat, and because of that I won't be able to fight much longer. My jutsu uses a tremendous amount of charka and his swift movements also take energy there's no doubt that the longer we fight the more he well use the Sharingan to pro-see my moves. Even now hi eyes are tracking me. I can't target him directly, he'll just block a frontal attack, so I have to throw him off guard...' Haku then turned his attention to Naruto. 'By attacking his partner. Then I'll destroy him!'

Haku then come out of his mirror and went for Naruto who was down while Sasuke stood to the side before he ran forwarded to try to him.

"What?" the Uchiha asked. 'I've got to stop him!'

...My Line...

Akito held a wound on his chest as it dripped blood onto the ground feeling the slight Killing Intent coming from his hidden Uchiha lover at that fact.

"Akito-Sensei?!" Hinata called out in worry.

"You were late Akito," Zabuza stated. "You let your concern over those little punks' safety cloud your mind. Adding farther to the fog that already hinders your Sharingan. Your eyes are sharp Akito, but not sharp enough to read my moves...not any more." The Momochi let out a laugh. "Come on Akito, I want this to be fun. I want to enjoy myself as I exact my revenge. As for those brats, don't worry, their already at Haku's mercy...No their breathing their last breaths right now. Relax. You'll have plenty of time to weep out an apologize to those brats when you see them in the next life."

Zabuza started to laugh as he vanished into the mist.

'He doesn't get it,' the Senju thought as he glanced for a moment Obito's way. 'If he does manage to kill me then he won't live long afterwards…' He looked back to try and find the Rogue Mist Ninja. 'Obito won't let him. However…' A smirk came to his face. 'He doesn't realize my real plan.'

"He said that...Naruto will die," the Hyuuga mumbled under her breath before shaking her head. "No, there's no way that he'll die before becoming Hokage. I have faith in him. And Sasuke, too. I won't lose either one of them."

"Exactly," the Konoha Jonin agreed with her. "I...I believe in their abilities. I have faith in them. Naruto, the Number One Unpredictable, Knuckleheaded Ninja, who also happens to be the Heir to the great Whirlpool Clan, and Sasuke, Heir to one of the most powerful Clan in Konohagakure."

This made Zabuza's eyes widen.

"You mean…"

"Yes," Akito answered. "Their full names are; Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha. For Sasuke, the unique power of the Uchiha Bloodline runs through his veins just as they ran through mine. The Kekkei Genkai is his birth right. As for Naruto, Fuinjutsu, the Sealing Arts are his birth right and blood."

"I heard that one young ninja had survived the tragedy of the Uchiha Clan," the Momochi gasped in shock. "No wonder that he advances so quickly, but so does Haku. No one can match him. And of course, I never knew that Konoha no Aka Shi (Red Death of the Leaf), Kushina Uzumaki, even had a child." The silver hair Jonin growled as he got into a fighting stance. "But, anyways, no one has ever stopped Haku's secret jutsu. Even the most skilled Jonin fall before him. Just as you will fall before me...right now!"

"Hinata, stay with Tazuna," the 26-year-old ordered.

"Okay," she agreed. "Got it."

Akito then ran into the fog as the Hyuuga got in front of the Client.

'He's right,' the Senju thought as he ran. 'This ends now, but he is the one, who will fall."

...My Line...

Naruto was able to regain conscious and the first thing he saw was Haku on the ground.

"You...always get in the way Naruto," Sasuke told him with difficulty. "It never fails."

"You beat him, Sasuke!" Naruto cheered before he saw Sasuke. "Huh?"

Sasuke looked over his shoulder at his blond teammate.

"You should see the look on your face. You...you look like a total loser."

"Why?" Naruto asked. "Why did you...save me? Why did you do it?"

"I don't know why I just did," Sasuke answered as he looked forward. "You...I...hated you."

"Then why?" Naruto asked again. "It doesn't make any since." Naruto sat up. "Why did you...protect me?" Naruto stood up looking pissed. "I didn't for this! I didn't ask for you to save me!"
"I don't know my body just moved," Sasuke told him. "There was no time to think." As Sasuke started to fall backwards Naruto moved to catch, but of course Sasuke being Sasuke had to say some thing. "Loser."

"Sasuke!" Naruto shouted out.

Naruto caught Sasuke before he hit the ground.

"He...he's still out there," Sasuke told Naruto as he left his hand up. "My Brother. I...promised myself...I'd stay alive...until I killed him. Naruto...don't let your...dream die."

'He found...he found a strength he didn't realize he had,' Haku stated in a whisper. 'Why? Because of a certain person, who was precious to him. To save that person he rushed in knowing it was a trap. He was a true ninja worthy of honer.' Haku stood up and turned to the side before he spoke more loudly. "Is this the first time you've seen a friend die in battle?" Haku looked back at them. "This is part of what it means to be a ninja."

"Shut up," Naruto told him as he put the Uchiha down. "I...I hated you, too, Sasuke and yet..." Steam started to surrounded the two of them not knowing what to do or where it was coming from. "You'll pay for this." There was a demonic tone in Naruto's voice now just as the steam turned into red chakra that was spiraling around him and Sasuke. "I'm going to kill you."

'What is this Chakra?' Haku asked. 'Chakra can't be seen, but it's clearly visible. It's something ghastly. I can feel the wrath, the blood lust like it's evil it's self.' Haku stared in shock as the senbone where thrown out of the Naruto's body and his hands started to heal and change on it's own. 'His hands are healing and changing. This boy...what is he?'

Naruto's eyes turned a dark blood red color with blood lust in them as the whiskered markings on his face became pronounced.

..My Line...

Akito let out a gasp while Zabuza's head snapped towards the mirrors though the hidden rogue former leaf Chunin stiffen a bit.

'Is Zabuza creating this?' the Senju thought in worry. 'He's not. I know this Chakra even though it's been almost 13 years. There's no way.'

'What is this energy?' the Momochi thought. 'Something foul. Akito? No, it's to powerful even for him. Where is it coming from?'

'Naruto!' the 26-year-old thought in shock as his mind went back to the Kyuubi no Kitsune attack. 'This puts everyone in danger. Now of all times...the Seal has Broken. I have to stop it even if I might have to use the Wood Style Bloodline on top of the Sharingan.'

...My Line...

Naruto, after his looks changed, then charged at Haku with murder in his eyes.
