Author's Notes: Same as the last chapter.

Chapter 6: Swordsman Vs. Swordsman

"Do I know you?" said Zabuza glaring at Siren.

"OH! My mask, silly me." said Siren removing his mask to reveal his face and Zabuza just nodded.

"So I come across the son of the Vanquisher, eh? Nothing personal, but I need you to move out of the way so I can kill the bridge builder and be on my way."

"Sorry, not gonna happen."

"Siren-Sensei, who is this guy?" asked Sakura in a defensive stance in front of Tazuna.

"Zabuza Momochi, Demon of the Bloody Mist and one of the Eight Swordsmen of the Hidden Mist." said Siren.

"Eight? I thought their was only seven." said Obito.

"That's what we wanted you to think. Skyler was the eighth despite him not being from Hidden Mist and his sword...*shudders*...you never want to see that thing." said Zabuza.

"And I have the sword too, but I prefer my own style." said Siren throwing off his cloak to reveal eight longswords strapped to his back. He threw them into the air and caught them, his tail catching the eighth sword and he charged Zabuza who pulled his sword out of the tree and began blocking with it despite the speed Siren was using when fighting with the swords.

"Come on Zabuza, surely you can fight better than this." said Siren as he swung 4 of his swords at once.

"I would but you seem to forget you have EIGHT SWORDS!" growled Zabuza.

"Oh."

The two clash for several minutes, both receiving various wounds.

"Water Style: Water Dragon Jutsu!" said Zabuza making hand signs near the water and a large water dragon formed and charged Siren.

"EEEEK!" yelled Siren before the water dragon collided with him. The water dragon explodes upon impact and only the eight swords are seen on the ground.

"Hmm, what a disappointment." said Zabuza.

"You need to learn to keep your guard up." said Siren in a dark voice behind Zabuza who turned his head towards Siren, his eyes wide.

"Wha-"

*Flesh getting pierced*

Zabuza looked down and saw a metal fist emerging from his chest and Siren leaned in close and whispered something in the missing nin's ear who's eyes went wide and the bandages covering his mouth became blood stained before his eyes slowly closed and he went limp. Siren removed his metal arm from Zabuza's chest and watched the Swordsman fall and float on top of the water.

"Okay, everybody we continue on with the mission." said Siren cheerfully despite what he had done.

"B-but w-what about Zabuza?" asked Sakura.

"Don't worry, I'm certain a certain somebody will come to take the body." said Siren walking back towards the group.

*CRACK!*

Siren's mask broke into three pieces and fell to the ground.

"Don't worry, I have plenty of replacements." said Siren with a toothy grin.

10 Minutes Later

A figure, roughly 10-12 years old, jumped down from a tree branch and landed next to Zabuza's corpse and the figure reached out for the corpse when Zabuza's eyes shot open and he grabbed the person's hand.

"Haku, we need to pay Gato a visit." said Zabuza his eyes burning with bloodlust.

END CHAPTER

I hope you enjoyed this little diversion from the original plot but I like Zabuza and I'm not sure on a few things yet, but I just felt like doing this. And sorry if the sword fight was short. Ideas and Suggestions welcomed.
