~Tenshi's POV~
We are up against a strong ninja, but we're ready, I have faith in my team and in myself. They may know about my secret now, but I won't let them get hurt. Zabuza disappeared in the mist and I was keeping an eye out.
"Tenshi, do you see him?" Dad asked me. I saw a shadow moving, with the Taiingan I'm able to see as if it were night vision. I nodded.
"I see him," I said. Dad nodded.
"Don't worry, we'll protect you guys, even if it kills us," dad told the team. I nodded in agreement.
"Tenshi, be careful," I heard Sasuke say. I was shocked, but I nodded. Zabuza then appeared.
"We don't let our comrades die," Dad and I said, then attacked Zabuza. We moved him away from the group and stabbed him but it was only a water clone. He appeared behind us but I turned to smoke as dad turned to water. Water and shadow clones. We appeared behind him and put kunais to his throat. "Don't move, it's over," we said in unison. The others cheered for us.
"There's no way you can defeat me with your intentions, you don't get it," Zabuza said making our eyes widen. "But that was impressive of you both, at that time you had already copied my Jutsu, Kakashi, and Tenshi would already see me through the mist," he said to us. "You had your clones say those words to attract my attention while the real you hid in the mist and watch me, nice plan, but…" he told us. He then appeared behind us. "It's not that easy," he said, we stabbed him again and he turned to water…again. He went to swing his sword and we ducked. As dad started to get up, Zabuza kicked him away. I then used my hand and caught dad to set him down gently and used my other hand to move Zabuza away. Then Zabuza used his sword to swipe my shoulder making me lose concentration on dad, which made him fly into the water. I was kicked away and dad was put in a water prison.
"Dammit," I spat out. Tamotsu ran over to me and helped me up. "Now I'm really ticked. Let's go Tamotsu," I said to him. He nodded and we did hand signs.
"Moon Style: Lone Wolf Warrior!" We called out. We then transformed.
~Sasuke's POV~
I watched as Tenshi did some hand signs with Tamotsu. I didn't know he could do that.
"Moon Style: Lone Wolf Warrior!" They called out.
"Tamotsu can talk?!" Naruto asked shocked. Even I was shocked. I was watched as a white light covered them both and combined them. When the light disappeared, there was a woman, about Kakashi's height with long silver hair that reached her ankles, she had a wolf tail and ears. She was also wearing a white kimono with a silver sash and design. The kimono reached her mid-thigh and her sleeves where cut and attached to the upper mid-arm. She wore white boots that reached below her knee and a choker necklace with a diamond jewel in the middle. Her nose and mouth where cover with white cloth like Kakashi-Sensei and her eyes where silver. She was beautiful.
"Wow…" Sakura and Naruto mumble in shock. We watched as she did hand signs.
"Moon Style: Lunar Saber!" Tenshi called out in a womanly voice. She looks to be at least twenty. Soon a white light appeared where she held her hand out and a long wide sword appeared. Zabuza then looked at her.
"The great Lone Wolf Warrior, told to be an ANBU level Jutsu, so I heard, how can a Genin like you know it?" He asked her have a clear view of fear in his eyes. Tenshi then pointed her Saber at him.
"Years of training and a strong will, with that, anything this possible, which means, so is stopping you, Zabuza Momochi!" She called over to him. She ran forward and attacked him, she was faster than anyone I had ever seen. She was a blur! She manage to cut him in half only to be found out it was another water clone. "Come out and face me you coward!" She shouted. "Or, are just as pathetic as other rogue ninja?" She asked. That got him to come out. She went back to fighting, she looked like a real warrior, but an angel at the same time. Another water clone appeared and knock Naruto away with his protector falling to the ground. "Naruto!" She called out still fighting. Naruto tried to get away but stopped, he then charged at Zabuza. Sakura tried to stop saying we didn't have a chance. Naruto grabbed his forehead protector off the ground.
"Hey…you eyebrowless freak…put this in your handbook…the man who one day will become Hokage…"bring the protector to his forehead tying it. "Leaf Village Ninja…Naruto Uzumaki!" He shouted with a grin. Naruto kept looking at him. "Sasuke lend me your ear," he requested. Guess I have no choice, if it will help Tenshi and Sensei.
"What is it?" I asked.
"I have a plan," he told me. I then smirked.
"Pft, teamwork from you?" I asked. He told me the plan and I smirked again.
"Now, let's get wild," he smirked. I nodded.
"A lot of arrogance, but do you stand a chance?" Zabuza asked. Kakashi-Sensei tried to stop us, Tenshi kept fighting, but Tazuna…
"Well, I planted this seed myself. I'm not going to now say that I desire to live so much that I'd stop you. I'm sorry guys, fight as much as you want," He smirked at us. I 'pft' again.
"You hear that?" I asked Naruto, my smirk widening a bit.
"Are you ready?" He asked me. Zabuza then started to laugh, I saw more water clones surround Tenshi and she kept fighting. She was becoming exhausted and quickly.
"You guys will never grow up," Zabuza said.
"What?" Naruto asked.
"Going to keep playing 'Ninja', eh? When I was about your age, these hands were already dyed red with blood," he told us lifting a hand up. Then I heard Tenshi and Kakashi-Sensei mutter 'devil Zabuza.' "Ah, so you two heard a little about it,"
"Long ago, in the Hidden Mist Village, also called the Blood Mist Village, there was a final obstacle in becoming a Ninja," Kakashi-Sensei told us.
"Hm, even you know about that graduation exam," Zabuza mused. Naruto asked about the exam, even I was curious but afraid to know. "Fights to the death between the students," he told us. He told us about the exam practically scaring all of us, but Kakashi-Sensei and Tenshi already knew by the looks on their faces. "That was sure fun!" Zabuza smiled. He then kicked me away and as I was about to the ground, he elbowed my gut making me cough up blood.
"Sasuke!" Tenshi and Sakura yelled out. Zabuza told me to die and Naruto did a shadow clone Jutsu, I was trying to get up while Naruto fought him.
"Sasuke!" He called out, he then through something and I caught it and I opened it.
"Evil Wind Shuriken: Shadow Windmill!" I shouted, I then jumped up and threw it at Zabuza. I really aimed at the real Zabuza who held Sensei prisoner in his Jutsu, he ended up dodging it, but I smirked. The Shuriken was really Naruto, who threw a kunai at Zabuza cutting his cheek and setting Sensei free. Zabuza tried using his own Shuriken but Sensei stopped him and glared.
"I'll tell you, I don't fall for the same Jutsu twice, what will you do?" Kakashi-Sensei asked him. "Oh yeah, and messing with my kid, that's pretty much asking to die," he threatened. Sensei congratulated Naruto on the plan and went back to fighting. They both jumped away and started doing hand signs to the Water Dragon Blast Jutsu. The water clones disappeared and the wave sent Tenshi back over to us. She laid on her side and I helped her up.
"Are you alright, Tenshi?" I asked her. She looked at me and nodded.
"Yeah, thanks," she smiled at me through her mask. I gave her a small smile. More water clones appeared and she pushed me behind her and started fighting again. I could see she was covered in cuts and blood covered her. Another wave came, then Zabuza is shoved against a tree.
"It's over!" Kakashi-Sensei called from the tree branch.
"How? Can you see the future?" He asked him.
"Yeah, you're going to die," Kakashi-Sensei and Tenshi said in unison. Then two senbons are thrown into his neck kill him instantly.
"Hehe, you're right, he's dead," a voice said. Tenshi and Kakashi-Sensei walked up and checked his pulse.
"He's dead alright," Tenshi confirmed. That's when a Mist Hunter Nin, as Kakashi-Sensei called him, appeared. The Hunter Nin took Zabuza away and I looked at Tenshi. She walked up to me and smiled. Sensei looked at us and told us we had to get going then collapsed. We gathered around him.
"Don't worry, he just overused his Sharingan, he's exhausted. Though, I can't say I'm any different," Tenshi said. She and Tamotsu separated and Tenshi collapsed. I caught before she hit the ground.
"Tenshi!" I called out. She was breathing hard and was cover in blood and sweat.
"We need to get her out of here," Tamotsu said. We all nodded and went to Tazuna's home. I sat next to Tenshi as Tsunami, Tazuna's daughter, treated her. Kakashi-Sensei woke up first and was asked if he was alright, he only needed a week to recover. He then looked for Tenshi, his eyes found her and widened; she was covered in bandages.
"Is Tenshi alright?" He asked urgently. I nodded with Tamotsu.
"She is exhausted from the Jutsu," I told him. Tamotsu was lying next to Tenshi. Sensei sighed.
"I told her to never use that Jutsu," he said. We all looked at him confused.
"Why is that, Sensei?" Naruto asked.
"If she used too much, for too long, it could kill her," he told us causing our eyes to widen. He then looked at Tamotsu. "You weren't supposed to let her use it, Tamotsu," he glared.
"It was her choice, as much as I hate it, we both know, once she makes up her mind, she sticks to it. She was only thinking about the team, you can't blame her," Tamotsu told him.
"I already lost the love of my life, I'm not ready to lose my daughter too!" Kakashi-Sensei called over to him. We were all shocked, we never heard Sensei yell like that before.
"Dad, I'm okay, just tired," Tenshi mumbled. I looked at her and held her hand.
"Are you okay?" I asked her. She nodded and gave me a tired smile.
"I'll be better after a few days of rest," she told me. I nodded giving her a small smile. We started asking about the Hunter Nin and found out what happens to lost Ninjas. Kakashi-Sensei went back to sleep long with Tenshi. Hours later Sakura and Naruto tried to see under Kakashi-Sensei's mask but he woke up. He looked at his blanket and looked like he was thinking. I saw Tenshi trying to sit up and I helped her. She then looked at her father. "You're thinking about it too, huh?" She asked him. We were all confused and they started telling us their theory about Zabuza.
"Zabuza is alive," they said in unison. We all freaked out.
"A senbon can either kill you, or can put you in a temporary coma, stopping your heart for a short time," Tenshi told us. Now it made sense. Sensei soon said that the three of us will need training. Tenshi would be resting. "Forget it, I can still walked around, fresh air will do me good," she said to him. He nodded and told her she could do nothing else but that. That's when a kid showed up. His name is Inari and he's Tsunami's son and Tazuna's grandson. He doesn't seem to like us, mostly Naruto, who was kinda fighting verbally with him. Tenshi looked at him with sad eyes, like she knew something was going on with him. Inari then disappeared to his room and I looked at Tenshi again to see she had a frown on her face.
"Tenshi, what's wrong?" I asked her. She didn't look up.
"His eyes…they hold so much sadness and anger…" she mumbled. Her father looked at her with sad eyes.
"Much like you did six years ago," he said to her making her nod. Naruto had walked off to talk to Inari but came back.
"He's crying…" Tenshi whispered. I frowned and placed an arm around her shoulders. The next day, we went out and began training…tree climbing. Of course, Naruto had to learn about Chakra, Tenshi and Sakura told him what was and we began. We all ran to the trees and started climbing, but we didn't make it far.
"Yeah!" Two girls shouted. We saw Tenshi and Sakura sitting across from each other both having their marks high on the tree. They both high fived. "Girls rule!" They both said and started giggling. I'll admit, watching and hearing Tenshi giggle was cute.
"This just proves that girls have better Chakra control. But, Tenshi, I thought I told you to take it easy," Sensei lectured.
"I am taking it easy! It feels nice up here," she said closing her eyes. She then jumped and flipped down landing on her feet. Sensei then provoked me and Naruto. "Dad, be nice to them, you're supposed to support them, not bring them down," she lectured him. He sighed and nodded. I looked at her and gave her a thankful nod which she smiled too. Naruto and I kept going as Sensei went back to the house. Sakura talked to Naruto who asked for help then she left. I wanted to know what she told him because he was catching up to me. I asked him what she said and he said it was a secret. That's when Tenshi came up to me. "Your using too much Chakra, you need to find a balance," she advised me. She then looked at Naruto who was going again. "He was using too little making him have less traction on the tree. Give it a try, he'll use more as you should use less, you'll make it in time," she smiled at me. She waved and joined Sakura in guarding Tazuna. I am going to make it to the top…for Tenshi.
