Third chapter of Mooncat. Everything belongs to Kishimoto and whoever else Naruto belongs to. I´m only owning Mizu and her crazy self.

I´m taking the dialogue out of the manga but the storyline is from the anime.

Reviews are always welcomed.

Now enjoy the chaos of Mizu and her trip to crazy town.

'Thoughts'

-inner voice-

The next morning was way too early. Tazuna had decided we had to leave before dawn as he wanted to use the thick mist in the morning as a cover. That was why I was still half asleep when we boarded the boat, which would bring us over to the land of waves. I grumbled something like morning to the boatman, which was really nice considering I nearly made a pincushion out of Sakura this morning, who had tried to wake me up for breakfast. The result was, that she screamed the whole house down and the guys bargained in our room thinking we were attacked, only to meet a pissed of me. With my hair untied and hanging in my face and me giving of a death aura, I´m pretty sure I resembled the girl from the ring quiet well as the younger ones had backed away and had gone pale. Which lead to a hasty leave as no one wanted to sit through a long breakfast with a murderous me and a silent walk to the shore.

Once on the boat I took a seat next to Sakura and opposite of Sasuke and Kakashi, letting myself fall against the railing.

'Boooooooooooooooring. I want to sleep. Why can´t I sleep?... wait hey I can …... or maybe not...mhmmmmmmmmm...nope... have to find a way to survive Zabuza and Haku, maybe let them survive?...nope...not gonna happen... ...their deaths are one of the things that made Naruto Naruto. Seems like I can´t save a lot of people in the beginning. I still could save Hayate, I sort of liked him...maybe I cou-... What´s that in the water?'

My attention was drawn to a figure under the surface. I squinted my eyes to try and see the blurred figure more clearly.

'What the fuck is that. For Kamis sake keep still. Fuck this shit I´m going down there.'

With that in my mind I jumped over board,not considering my teammates reaction. What I should have considered beforehand was my weights. I might not notice them on land but they were pulling me down faster than I liked right now. I released some of the chakra inside, slowing my way under down.

'Where are you?'

I looked around trying to find that thing from before.

'Come out, come out, where ever you are.'

I sing-songed in my mind. I caught a moving out of the corner of my eyes as I turned around I came face to face with a giant cat. The thing had blazing red eyes and his wide opened muzzle was huge enough to devour me in one bite, which it did.

'What the hell?'

was all I could think.

-öööööööööööööööööööööö-

"...uld we wake her up?" I frowned at that.

'What the hell are they´re talking about? I just jumped into the water'

-Wake up you idiot.-

With a start I sat up and looked around.

'Where the hell is that voice coming from. The others don´t seem to hear it.'

-I´m inside your head idiot. Now get up.-

'Like I would follow instruction from a voice inside my head. I´ve got no inner me like Sakura.'

-Now you have. Move, they´re getting suspicious.-

'This conversation isn´t over yet.'

True to it´s word most of the looked quiet suspicious of why I was still on the boat. I got up and jumped of the boat, bag pack swinging in my left hand. I grinned at them as I walked past them.

"What´s keeping you so long, slowcoaches." I said, now in front of the group.

They didn´t comment on my odd behaviour only shrugging it off as me being me and followed me.

After leaving the little village behind I let myself fall back and Naruto took the front position.

"Sensei we´re going to manage whoever they´ll send after us Jounin or Chuunin." I tried to easy Kakashi´s worries. He looked at me and just sighed but ruffled my hair in thanks.

'Oi I´m no little kid don´t ruffle my hair like that.'

-As if you didn´t like it.-

'How can you? You´re my inner me, you should be on my side.'

-Not when you lie to yourself. Now get a grip on yourself, they´re here.-

Before I could ask what it meant, Sasuke had closed up the distance between himself and Naruto, which let to Naruto throwing his kunai in a random direction. Trying to prove that´ll he´s just as good as the Uchiha.

"Stop showing off. There was nothing there." Sakura said angrily.

"Please, stop using kunais, it´s seriously dangerous." Kakashi tried to calm him down.

"Hey you dwarf! Don´t scare us!" Tazuna yelled at him.

"Oi Tazuna-san stop disrespecting the house of Durin." I told him.

"The what?" he asked flabbergast.

"The house of Durin. You know the dwarves that lived in the lonely Mountain, had the Arkenstone and was nearly destroyed by Smaug the Terrible." I told him even if it was only a tiny bit of the history of the house. We were interrupted as Naruto threw a kunai again. This time it was a white rabbit he missed by an inch. As Naruto apologised to the little thing I took a kunai.

"Sensei, that´s a snow rabbit. It shouldn´t be here or at least be brown and not white." I told them, pointing out the obvious. Suddenly I heard a swishing sound without thinking I ducked pulling Tazuna and Naruto with me. The huge sword came to a stop as it got stuck in tree a few meters away from us. The next second a figure appeared, standing on the handle and gazing down at us.

"Oh, my, my, you are Momochi Zabuza, the rogue ninja of the hidden village of the mist." Kakashi greeted the newcomer. I took a hold of Naruto´s collar as the blond tried to dash forward.

"Stay back and let Sensei do his thing." I told him calmly.

"All of you stay back. This one is on a whole other level. It will be a little tough unless I do this."the silver haired Jounin said, left hand gripping the hitai-ate over his left eye.

"You appear to be Sharingan,sorry but the old man is mine." Zabuza began.

"Manji formation everybody. Do not enter the fight, that´s the teamwork here. Zabuza first fight me." Kakashi announced, pulling his hitai-ate up to uncover his left eye. A blazing red iris with three black commas circling around the pupil in it was revealed. The Sharingan.

"ah...I already got to see the famous Sharingan. I´m honoured.." Zabuza continued.

"Sharingan. Sharingan. What the hell is that!?" our hothead interrupted, yelling at Kakashi-sensei.

"It´s a Kekkei Genkai, a bloodline limit." I said before anyone else could answer,

"Basically it´s means a certain ability is passed down genetically within a clan and even then not all family members awaken their Kekkei Genkai. The Sharingan is a dojutsu as it works via the eyes. These eyes can read and defeat every Tai-, Gen- or Ninjutsu. Furthermore it can copy the techniques of the opponent. It´s also called an eye that reflects the heart as most Uchiha activate their Kekkei Genkai when they experience a very strong emotional condition." I explained to them not wanting to make this explanation longer than it had to be.

"Hehe. Seems like one little brat knows more than the others. Tell me little one do you know what your Sensei is known as?" Zabuza asked me. A shiver ran down my spine and I could feel my knees going weak as his attention shifted towards me.

'I´m fucking scared. Why the hell do I always have to ramble when I´m scared or angry. That´s not good.'

-Keep calm and continue. Don´t let him see your fear.-

'Thanks inner me that´s soooooo helpful.'

"When I was a member of the hidden mist assassin team I kept a handbook, it included information of you … and this is what it said … the man, who had copied over 1000 jutsu, 'Copy Ninja Kakashi'." Zabuza answered himself now being focused on the Jonin once again.

'Are there even so many jutsus?'

-That´s what you´re worried about.-

'Yeah. My brain works strange.'

"Now let´s end all this talking. I have to kill that old man."

We went into the Manji formation at that, Sakura behind Tazuna, Naruto to the left, Sasuke at the front and I to the right.

"But Kakashi it´s seems I have to kill you first." with that Zabuza jumped of the tree, putting his sword back on his back and landed on the water a few meters further away.

"Over there!"

"And on top of the water!" Sakura and Naruto yelled.

"Ninpou hidden mist no jutsu." Zabuza said as he raised his left arm over his head and his right hand to his bandaged covered mouth. Only his fore- and middle fingers was raised, the other fingers clenched like a fist. Thick mist appeared all around us and let Zabuza disappear.

"He´ll come after me first. Momochi Zabuza as a member of the hidden mist ANBU he was known for his silent killing techniques. Just as the name implies it´s a technique that´s executed in a flash and carried out in complete silent. You don´t even notice until you´re already dead …... It´s not like I can use the Sharingan perfectly. You guys be carefully." Kakashi said after he get in front of our little group. It set all of us Genin on edge.

"The mist is getting thicker." Naruto yelled.

"Thanks, Captain Obvious. We hadn´t notice." I bit back sarcastically as the mist got so thick we couldn´t even see our Sensei a few feet in front of us.

'I´m getting quiet sarcastic. Why do I have no brain to mouth filter when I´m scared or angry?'

-You really wanna discuss this right now? Just keep going right now it works in your favour.-

'Whatever you say Inner me. It´s not as I´m known to be sane.'

"Which one should I go after?" I heard the last of Zabuza rhetorical question.

"Your arse." I muttered under my breath. Suddenly Kakashi-sensei set free a huge amount of chakra, which shook as all to the core as his killing intend washed over us. I shivered, my kunai nearly fall out of my hand due to my shivering.

"Sasuke...don´t worry. I´ll protect you guys even if it kills me... I don´t let my comrades die." Kakashi said with a smile on his face to us.

"We´ll see about that." a voice could be heard. Zabuza appeared in between the space from us to Tazuna.

"It´s over." I froze and the next thing I knew was that I was flying through the air, landing hard on the ground the same time as Kakashi stabbed the fake Zabuza. The next second the fake Zabuza liquefied and another Zabuza appeared behind Kakashi and sliced him in half. The Kakashi fake liquefied too and the real Kakashi reappeared holding a kunai to Zabuza´s neck.

"Don´t move! It´s over!" our Sensei said to what he thought was the real Zabuza. Thr other one just laughed.

"It´s over? You don´t get it. There´s no way you can defeat me with your monkey-like imitation. Hehe... but that was impressive of you. At that time you already had copied my water clone no jutsu … You had your clone say those words to attract my attention while the real you stayed in the mist and watched. Nice plan. But … I´m also not that easy." the last part was said by the real Zabuza, who appeared behind Kakashi at the same time as the second fake Zabuza turned into water. In a matter of seconds the next few thing happened, Kakashi ducked to dodge Zabuza´s sword, which got stuck in the ground. Zabuza only rearranged his grip on the sword to be able to kick Kakashi into the water a few meters away.

'Move body move. For Kami´s sake MOVE!'

-Calm down. You´re not helpful this way.-

'Easy for you to say. YOU´RE JUST IN MY FREAKING MIND!'

-You´re a Kunoichi, stop this shit.-

'I´M SCARED SHITLESS. WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK I SHOULD DO?!'

-Right now you´re going to duck.-

I ducked. No idea why I listen to my creepy inner voice; maybe I´ve gone completely insane. The kick of Zabuza´s third water clone missed me by an inch. The real one had Kakashi captivate inside his water prison. It seemed that I missed quiet a bit while I was panicking. The next attack wasn´t directed at me but at Naruto, who was to my far left as we formed a sort of half circle. He couldn´t dodge the kick and was thrown back a couple of feet, blood splattering everywhere. The clone stepped on his hitai-ate, which Naruto had lost due to the force of the kick.

"Take Tazuna-san and run! You have no chance of beating him! As long as he keeps me trapped in this prison he can´t move! The water clone cannot go very far from his real body. Just run away for now." Kakashi-sensei yelled from inside his prison.

'That´s comforting.'

-Kiddo listen to me, you have to calm down. Emotions are only in the way. You´ll not win like this.-

'I´m not a fucking Jedi and even if I was I would have way more training than this.'

-Calm your mind and have fate in the force.-

'ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME! THA´S NOT THE RIGHT TIME.'

-I thought it might calm you down.-

'Well it didn´t. I fucking hate y...'

I didn´t finish my thought as Sakura´s ear piercing scream tore me from my thoughts. Naruto had charged at the Zabuza clone, only to be kicked back once again. He slowly got up, trembling all the time, his hitai-ate held fast in his left hand.

"Hey, you eyebrowless freak, put this in your handbook. The man who will one day become Hokage … Leaf village ninja Uzumaki Naruto." he finished as he tightened his headband around his head again.

-He really is inspiring.-

'That´s Naruto for you.'

-Found away to calm yourself?-

'Not quiet yet but it´ll have to be enough for now.'

-What you´re planning?-

"Naruto-kun, you´ve got a plan?" I asked him, as he didn´t continue his little speech like he did in the series.

"Not quiet, Mizu-chan." he answered.

"Well I might be scared shitless right now but I´m pretty sure I can buy you two a little time." I answered.

'Yep officially mad.'

"Now devil how about a dance?" I asked, grinning wickedly at him.

-I´m impressed. You use your absent of brain-to-mouth-filter as a shield. Stupid but impressive.-

'Shut up. You´re distracting. I can hold him off for maybe a minuet not longer.'

Without further delay I attacked. I knew it was foolish but I had to buy time. My sheer presence was altering the storyline and I had to fix that. I used chakra to vanish for second, only to reaper right in front of the water clone. It lunged out with it´s sword to kill but it faltered for a second which I used to not block the swipe but to plunge my kunai deep into it´s chest. Well I at least try to do it but I was kicked away the same way as the Sensei had been a few minutes earlier. As I was way lighter than Kakashi-sensei I flew farer away and crashed into a tree.

'Didn´t go as smooth as I imagined.'

I straightened up rather painfully, I couldn´t see the clearing from here. I must have flown quiet a bit... which was rather unlikely, considering the power level they were on in the first chapters. Not that Zabuza wasn´t strong, he was freakish strong, but he wasn´t on Tzunade´s level of super human strength. I couldn´t even see a path of broken plants or trees or whatever, which should have marked the direction I had came flying from. Which either meant I was in a weird dream again or ….

"Haku." I whispered as he appeared right in front of me. I reached for my kunai but before I could even touch it a handful of senbons were put in my body. Immediately I couldn´t move and fell down to the ground once again.

'I hate this day. And what does he want from me? Shouldn´t he help Zabuza?'

-No idea.-

"Who are you?" he asked me, holding a kunai to my throat.

"`scuse me ?" I asked utterly confused, having no idea what he meant by that.

"Don´t play dumb with me." the kunai digging deeper in my skin.

"Well if you would just spit out what you want and not some half arsed question, which doesn´t make any sense in this context, I might not play dumb." I bit back, being too out of my element to care for the effects of my action. He sighed.

"You know a lot of the Sharingan, furthermore you knew more than you let on. My name for example. Last but not least the water clone hesitated to attack you and it´s a identical copy of Zabuza-sama, which is why it shouldn´t have hesitated. Now answer me." the kunai now breaking my skin, a little bit of blood flowing down my throat.

"First I read a lot, second I´m a ninja, it´s in the job description to know more than people think you would. Haku is just something I say when I´m surprised, but thanks to you know I now know your name. Finally I have no idea why the clone hesitated, maybe my sparkling personality blinded him for a moment." Before he could kill or maim me, he froze and looked back where I guessed was the battle. The next second he had vanished taking his senbons thanks Kami out of my body. Whatever Haku did to paralyse me was appearing only lasting as long as the senbons had been stuck in my body. The second the senbons were out I could move my body, well painfully and slowly dragging myself in the general direction of the fight would be more like it. He´ll get that back. After a few dreadful minutes I finally managed to get back to the clearing in time to see Haku vanish with Zabuza.

'Seems like he vanished quiet early. Properly after Kakashi-sensei escaped from the prison or else I wouldn´t have made it back in time.'

I used the rest of my chakra to appear in front of our Sensei and stopped him from face-planting onto the ground.

"And here I was thinking I screwed up. You don´t seem so good either Sensei." I said grinning down at him, only to realise that he was unconscious due to his overuse of the Sharingan.

"That´s rude, Sensei." I muttered.

"Mizu-chaan, you´re alright." a over enthusiastic Naruto tried to hug me. I dodged him and turned to Tazuna.

"Nee, Tazuna-san, where´s your house? We should get there as fast as possible to rest. The Sensei will need it and we´ll too." I told the baffled old man.

After a little bit of hesitation he led the way and luck we arrived at his home half an hour later. I had dumped Kakashi on Sasuke and Naruto as I couldn´t carry him, I had difficult to even stay on my legs, carrying a grown man was too much. The second we entered the house I slipped out of my shoes and threw my bag in a corner on the opposite wall of the door. I hastily greeted Tazuna´s daughter as I didn´t want to be rude and lay down next to may bag. I was utterly out of stamina even with my extra training. I had screwed up big time but I couldn´t care less right now as I passed out the second my head had met the floor.

AN: I know it´s short and ends abruptly but I hope you like it nonetheless.

Everything will be explained in the future chapters and what this inner voice is exactly.

I hope it´s not too unbelievable and you could relate to the way Mizu acted.
