8: The Oath of Pain!
Suiren Uzumaki: The disclaimer: I do not own Naruto cause if I did then Sakura wouldn't be a useless fangirl 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 Ryurama Senju, Yuki Senju nee Miran, Raika Miran (Senju), & the White Tiger Summoning Contract (A/N: If there is already a White Tiger Summoning Contract…then please ignore the last part). 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...
The Uzumaki pulsed his chakra into the air to create a gust of wind that made it easier for the group to see each other again as now the silver hair Jonin was visible to his students again.
'What a thirst for blood,' Sasuke thought. 'One shallow breath, one tiny movement of the eye is enough to draw his attack...It's suffocating...If it goes on like this, I'll go insane. The clash of 2 Jonins intend to kill...I never felt anything so chilling it's as if my own life is being chocked off...No I can't bar it. I whether take my own life.'
Sasuke tightens his grip on his kunai and hold it in both his hand about to put through himself.
"Sasuke!" the Hatake called out making him to look up at him. "Calm Down. I'll protect you with my life...All of you…" He looked back at them with an eye smile. "I will not allow my comrades to die. Trust me."
"I won't it be too sure if I were you Kakashi," Zabuza told him as he appeared between the Genin and in front of the barrier. "It's over."
Raika reacted faster than Kakashi and plugged her katana into Zabuza's gut, but instead of blood pouring out it was water and soon Zabuza was behind the greenette and the one in front of her turned into water.
"Rai-chan behind you!" the blonde yelled.
The green hair Genin looked in time to Zabuza's sword come at her and cute her in half, but Zabuza found out it was Water Clone.
'Water Clone Jutsu?' the Momochi asked in surprise. 'It can't be.'
"Don't move," Kakashi told him as he appeared behind him with a kunai to his throat. "Now it's over."
"Your finish."
"Alright!" Naruto shouted with happiness.
'Hold on a minute how can I sense Zabuza somewhere else when he's in front of me...NO IT CAN'T BE!' Raika thought as her eyes widen in shock.
Zabuza started to laugh, and it only made the green hair Genin more worried.
"Finished?" he asked. "You really don't get it do you? Your technique is nothing, but a class imitation. I'll never be defeated by a mere copycat ninja like you, Kakashi" He smirked as his eyes landed on the Miran. "Your Genin is full of surprises though. She had used the Water Clone Jutsu when you made your little speech." The Leaf Jonin's eyes narrowed in anger. "Every skillfully executed. You used her clone to say those things to draw my attention while you waited for me to make my move. Nice try." That was when the real Zabuza appeared behind the Hatake. "But, I'm not that easy to fool!"
The Mist Ninja went to swing his sword to cut Kakashi while the other Zabuza turned into water.
"Hey, that's ones a Clone, too!"
However, the silver hair Jonin was able to dodge making Zabuza's sword get stuck in the ground and Zabuza switched hands and kick the other Jonin into the water and went running after.
"Now!" he growled before he stopped at the stars on the ground. "Matabishi spikes. You're trying to slow me down…" He turned around. "Hmm foolish."
He then jumped into the water while Kakashi resurface.
"Sensei!"
'I can't believe that Kakashi-Sensei got kicked through the air like that,' the pinkette thought.
"He has great physical skills, too," Sasuke stated.
'This isn't normal water...It's dense...Heavy,' the silver hair Jonin thought.
"Fool," Zabuza told him as he appeared right behind him doing hand signs. "Water Prison Jutsu!"
"No!" the Konoha Jonin yelled as he got trapped. "Escaping through the water bad idea."
"This prison is made of water, but it's stronger than steel," Zabuza told him. "It's hard to fight when you can't move...so much for the great Kakashi. I'll finish you off later, but first your little friends will have to be eliminated...Water Clone Jutsu!"
'He's even more skilled than I thought,' the Hatake thought in anger.
…My Line…
Unknown to all was that their Masked Uchiha Spy fought to not get involve in the fight as the Kyuubi Jinchuuriki was involved...or at least that is what he keeps telling himself.
…My Line…
"You think wearing a headband makes you a ninja?" the Rogue's Clone asked. "When you hover between life and death to many time that it doesn't faze you then you may be called a ninja. When you become so deadly that your profile is entered into my BINGO book then you may have earned the title ninja, but to call up starts like you a ninja is a joke."
'He disappeared again,' Naruto thought.
The blonde stared at the spot where Zabuza once was for a bit before letting out a cry of pain and surprise.
"Your just brats," Zabuza's clone told them as he stepped on Naruto Leaf village forehead protector.
Sasuke had gasped when he saw Naruto get kicked back while the Haruno and Miran called to him.
"Naruto!"
"Aniki!"
"Listen!" the Hatake called making everyone look at him. "Get the bridge-builder and run. You can't win this fight. His using all of his power to keep me trapped in this prison, so he can only fight you with his Water Clone, but the clone can't go from his real body. If you get away from him then he can't follow. Now run!"
'Run away?' Sasuke thought. 'Not an option. That became unthinkable the moment you got caught. No matter how fast we run or how far we go, he'll track us down...and wipe us out. If we try a Monji Formation, he can get around it in an instant. In the end if we're on own we're finished. Our only chance of survival is to rescue you.' Sasuke glared at Zabuza as he became determined. "We got to do it. Now!"
The Konoha Jonin stared wide eyed as Sasuke ran at Zabuza and started to throw shuriken at him. Zabuza used his sword to block the shuriken that Sasuke threw at him as Sasuke disappeared and appeared above Zabuza with a kunai in hand was he came down.
"To easy," Zabuza stated as he reached up towards Sasuke grabbing him by his throat and then throwing him like a raged doll.
"Sasuke, no!" Sakura cried out.
"He got Sasuke," Naruto stated as he looked up at Zabuza with fear. 'So this is what a Jonin is a true elite ninja. I-I got to get away. If I don't seriously, he'll eliminate me.'
Naruto turned to get away from Zabuza, but stopped when he put his weight on his injured hand, so he looks at it as he started to remember things.
"Upon this wound I make this pledge, ya know. I'll never back down again and let someone else rescue me. I will never run away."
"You're not hurt are ya?" the Uchiha asked. "Scaredy cat."
"And I will not lose to Sasuke."
Naruto looked over at the Momochi with narrow eyes before looking at the headband.
"I-I want to try on your headband," Naruto answered. "Come on please?"
"Oh, this?" Iruka asked as he touched his protector. "No way. You can only wear the leaf headband after you finally graduate th Academy and become a ninja."
"Naruto. Come over here for a minute? I've got something special I want to give you."
"Congratulation. You graduate."
"If the enemy takes a hostage and you've got an impossible choice which will end up with someone dying," Kakashi told them as he stood up letting Sasuke go back to his place. "On every mission your life is on the line." A smile came to the Hatake's face. "You pass."
"I'm not the little brat, who used to pull pranks anymore. I'm a ninja now and I want a ninja mission."
'That's right I'm a ninja, ya know,' he thought as he stood up. 'I sore on the Oath of Pain. I won't run away.'
Naruto then charged at Zabuza making his teammates freak out. Kakashi and Sakura both gasped at the same time.
"Naruto no!" he yelled out to Naruto.
"Ah!" Sakura scream. "Naruto, what in the world are you doing?!"
Naruto stilled charged at Zabuza.
"Fool," the Clone laughed.
Before he then threw Naruto back, who then landed near Raika, Tazuna, Sakura, and Sasuke, on the ground.
"What were you thinking charging at him like him by yourself?" the Haruno asked. "Even Sasuke couldn't get to him! We're only Genin we can't defeat a Jonin! What did you think you'll accomplish by that?!" Sakura stopped as Naruto started to get to see he was holding his forehead protector. "Huh?" 'The headband? That's what he wanted?'
The silver hair 27-year-old watched in surprise as the boy stood up although he was a bit wobbly, and he was even more surprised when Naruto started to call Zabuza a freak with no eyebrows.
"Hey, you freak with no eyebrows..." Naruto stated. "Put this in your BINGO book. The that will become Hokage in Konohagakure no Sato. He never backs down. His name is Naruto Uzumaki."
…My Line…
'Is he trying to get himself killed?' the masked Uchiha thought as he looked Naruto annoyed as hell from his hiding place. 'However, it just might make getting my hands on the Kyuubi easier.'
…My Line…
'Naruto,' the silver hair Jonin thought was watched the sense in front of him.
'Ah...' Tazuna thought. 'I thought he was all talk, but this kid got guts.'
"Alright Sasuke!" Naruto started. "Listen up! Can you hear me?"
"Yeah, I can hear you," Sasuke answered.
"I got a plan." Naruto told him.
'Now he's got a plan?' Sasuke thought. 'This guy.' "So, your finally thinking about teamwork, huh?"
'Why do I have this feeling?' Sakura thought. 'Naruto's so determined.'
"Alright guys let's go wild," Naruto stated as he wiped blood from his chin. "Ok ready? Let's bring this guy down."
Kakashi looked at Zabuza as he started to laugh.
"Big words for such a little man. You think your plan going to work to keep you in the game?"
'This isn't good,' he thought with a gasp. "What are you doing? I told you to run!" Everyone looked at him as he continued. "This fight was over the moment that I got caught! Now take off! Your mission is not to prove how brave you are! It's to save the bridge-builder! Stay on mission!"
Naruto looked at Tazuna as he asked him a short question.
"Huh? Bridge-builder?"
"Well I..." Tazuna started to say. "I guess this all happened because me. Because of my desire to live, but I won't let that stand in your way now. Forget about me and do what you have to do! Go ahead and fight to save your Sensei."
Sasuke turned to face Zabuza with a smirk while he asked Naruto a question.
"Alright you hear that?"
"Yeah, ya know," Naruto answered him. "You ready?"
The Hatake's attention turned back to Zabuza as he laughed yet again.
"You're really haven't learned anything have you? Still playing your little game. Pretending to be ninja. When I was your age, this hand had already crushed many opponents."
This to the Genin by surprise.
"Kiri no Akuma (Demon of the Mist), Zabuza," Kakashi stated.
"Oh, so I was in your book too, huh?" Zabuza asked him.
"Long ago in Kirigakure no Sato also known as Blood Mist Village before a student could become a ninja there was one final test," the silver hair Jonin added in.
"You know about the graduation exam?" Zabuza asked as he looked at the Konoha Jonin.
"What gradation test?" Naruto asked making Zabuza to laugh at him. "What's the big deal anyway? We had gradation test, too."
Zabuza laughed again as he looked at Naruto.
"Did you have to eliminate the other students to pass?" the Momochi asked making the male Uzumaki gasped at this as Zabuza continued. "Image young ninja like you, eating together, training together, and then comes the final exam only this time they rules changed. Kill or be killed. You couldn't stop while your opponent still breath. He was your friend shared your dreams. Now it's him or you."
"That's so cruel," Sakura whispered.
"Ten years ago, Kirigakure's gradation exam changed because one year before a dark evil filled the school with terrier," the Hatake told them.
"What's he saying?" the Haruno asked. "What evil? What change? What caused the terrier?"
"Without pause or hesitation a young boy, who wasn't even a ninja, approach the class then took down over a hundred other students," the Leaf Ninja finished.
"It...It felt so...GOOD!" Zabuza stated as he got this evil look in his eyes.
The Rogue Mist Ninja's Clone nailed Sasuke in the chest with his elbow taking the other two by surprise. He then brought his elbow down on the Uchiha's stomach making him cough up blood before putting his foot onto him and started to grind in it.
"Your nothing," Zabuza laughed.
"Stop right there!" Naruto yelled.
"Water Style: Water Shockwave!" a female voice called out.
Water swirled around the three Genin with the greenette having clapped her hands together while leveled with her chest. The water then shot out at Zabuza's Clone as Naruto placed his fingers into the plus sign.
"Shadow clone jutsu!"
Zabuza dodged the high-pressure water before looking around himself to see he was surrounded by Naruto clones.
"Ah, shadow clones and there's quite a few of them," Zabuza stated he then looked at the red hair Genin. 'To be able to pull water right out of the air even with the Hidden Mist Jutsu in play is an amazing fate.' His eyes narrow in thought. 'An amazing fate that only Tobirama Senju has even been able to pull off.'
"Here we go!" the Narutos all yelled at the same time before attacking Zabuza.
Zabuza then swung his sword at the Naruto clones went flying and dispelling.
"His skills are to advance," Tazuna stated. "There's no way to defeat him."
"I'm not giving up," Naruto stated. "I still got this." Naruto pulled out a shuriken before throwing it to Sasuke. "SASUKE!"
Once Sasuke caught it he looked surprise for a moment, but then he spun around.
'So that's what your plan was?' the Uchiha thought. 'Not bad Naruto.' Sasuke then opened up the Shuriken. "Demon Wind Shuriken; Windmill of Shadows!"
"A Shuriken?" Zabuza asked as Sasuke jumped up and throw the shuriken at Zabuza. "You can't touch me with that." What surprised Zabuza was that went around his Water Clone and straight for his real body. "So, you pass me clone and aimed for my real. Smart, but not smart enough." Zabuza caught the shuriken to only realized there was another shuriken coming at him. 'A second shuriken in the shadow of the first. The Shadow Shuriken Jutsu.'
Sakura smiled a little bit as she watched the other shuriken go straight at Zabuza.
'The second shuriken is on to get, and he can't this one,' she thought, but then to her surprise he dodged it by jumping up.
"I told!" Zabuza yelled. "A shuriken can't touch me!"
'Ah, he dodged it!"
Just then the shuriken turned into Naruto and was holding a kunai in his hands take everyone by surprise, even Zabuza.
"What?!" Zabuza asked/yelled.
"Eat this!" Naruto shouted at Zabuza as throw the kunai at him to make the rouge to release the water prison on Kakashi.
