Zabuza was training and pushing his body to the limits. After what happened with Naruto, he didn't know what to do. Obviously the blond really wasn't going to speak with him, he was probably the last person Naruto wanted to speak with and even if he was willing to bite onto that particular kunai, he had no idea where to find the child. He didn't think Severus wanted to speak with him either. The man just had his first fight with one of his kids and ran off to work, if Zabuza had the right idea about the Magic User.
It had been hours since it happened, night had fallen long ago but even then, Zabuza continued to fight his clone-opponent. This was one of the moments when he wished he still had his sword. Perhaps he should admit defeat to the Magic User and beg for his sword back. Zabuza could feel his hand itching for the blade. Maybe he should consider the fact that the Magic User had actually used magic to hide it but then he'd be able to sense the sword or at least the amount of magic needed to do such a thing. Zabuza dealt a final, killing blow to his opponent and watched it collapse into a splash of water. He let out a sigh as he heard someone coming towards him. Someone small and…
"Naruto?" Zabuza could say he was shocked to see the boy walking towards him. He gazed at the blond and wondered if the boy was going to attempt to take his life now that they were alone. It was quite surprising that he had tried the first time… and that he had kissed his Severus.
"You better take care of him. I talked to papa and he said that when I'm eighteen, we'll get married. I don't want him to be lonely until then so you better take care of him or I'll get you. I'll get you and kill you," Naruto narrowed his eyes in a glare. For a brief moment, a very… very brief moment Zabuza felt something akin to fear shoot through his gut. It was ridiculous to fear a child but his brain just felt a sudden spike of fear. Naruto stared at him for several more moments before smiling brightly at him. His face completely shifted, turning bright and sunny as if he hadn't just threatened to take someone's life. He waved cheerfully and turned on his heel, practically skipping away.
"See you tomorrow Zabuza, good night!" Naruto shouted over his shoulder. Zabuza blinked for a long moment, staring at the retreating back before shaking his head. Children were so hard to understand, especially one Naruto Uzumaki.

The End
Hey, I never said Zabuza would get a word in. But see, they're all made up and stuff. Sweet family moment!
