It's so dark, my lord."
"Yes I'm well aware. Now that we've successfully established a connection here I'm able to explore this area further. First time I arrived here I remember, I couldnt explore much when i got sent to... the jungle? Point being is that we can fully take advantage of our new space!"

*static*"-ing, testing! I hope this is working and you can get this message. I've made it to the drop off and I've hidden this tape, a player, and my instructions on how to use this device. Konohagakure technologyhas been slowly advancing into a new age.m. I've written down as much as I can from the blueprints I was allowed to access since our infiltration of the RND Division. While testing the capabilities of teleportation, they've discovered how to reanimate the dead.

"Mistress, I'm not sure we should waste our time on such frivolous-"I hear you, Dr. Nimani, but it is what Lord Hokage is asking of us." "He can't possibly want this, it must be a ruse by Dan-"I know it sounds farfetched but I trust Nohara when she says that he's shifted goals""Wait Ms. N-
"Yes. She's who informed my of our new task. As much as i don't like it... we have to attempt to start the programming"

Present:
A bunch of Naruto clones ran towards the docks getting the attention of all the undead. They charged towards the clones who began to lure them away. Not all of them survived as the reanimated corpse of Zabuza would tackle a few and go for a bite only for the clone to dissappear. Angering the corpse. The five then slowly moved they're way further into the docks. "Alright try to stay quiet we don't have the firepower to take this many of them." Kakashi whispered to the group. "I'm gonna go see if I can extract our ship captain while you find a suitable ship to get us out of here.
"But-" Sakura didn't get to finish as Kakashi made his way to the lighthouse, careful to not make a sound. Haku pressed foward causing the other 3 to follow. The smell of blood and death overpowered the natural scent of the sea. Corpses littered the area along with some boats. They slowly made their way through the first ship. Careful to not slip or trip over blood, guts, wires, and pieces of flsming debris from ships. A quick glance was all they needed to tell that the vessel wasn't sailing anywhere. An explosin of some kind on this particular ship caused fire to spreading to other ships. Along with some metal boxes that seemed to have a blue glow emanating from them.
As they looked through the area for a sea worthy ship, Satsuki's eyes caught a glimpse of movement from around one of the ships on fire. She focused in on it and noticed a familiar shine. "Quick, hide!" She whispered harshly and shoved herself and Naruto into a pile of boxes. Haku and Sakura hid under a fallen sail that had broken off. The sound of heavy footsteps landing on the docks tipped everyone off to the danger that Satsuki had spotted. They footsteps slowly stumbled along docks followed by an unearthly groan. Satsuki buried her face into Naruto's chest as she tried to silence her rapid breathing. He held her tightly and prepared to use his chains for a defense. Haku and Sakura faired no better as Haku held the pinkette close to his chest covering her mouth to prevent her terrified gasp from being heard.
The undead Zabuza roamed the area walking around slowly. Occasionally tripping over it's own feet as well but would catch itself with the Kubikiribōchō. Dragging it across the bloody floor slowly repairing it. It suddenly stopped and started sniffing the area. A low growl was heard from the zombie as it's red eyes scanned the area. It couldn't have smelled it right? How is it possible to smell over the smoke and death. It slowly moved towards a pile of boxes before it clumsily swung it's sword to knock it over. Sakura who was watching through a small tear in the sail and was horrified. 'It's searching.' She thought to herself horrified. She was thankful that Haku was keeping her quiet.
Naruto grit his teeth as he heard another pile of boxes were knocked over. "I'm gonna distract him." Satsuki looked at him incredulously. Her grip on him become tighter. "No! I won't let you!" She whispered back. Naruto looked at her however his response was cut off as another pile of boxes were knocked over this time however it was followed by a scream. Sakura looked and saw that Zabuza had found one of Gatou's thugs and immediately looked away. The sun may have already begun to set but that was still too much light for what was about to happen.
"N-N-NO PLEASE-" he began screaming as Zabuza pounced on him and began eating. The sounds were gruesome as they heard the flesh being torn from bone along with the breaking, severing, chewing, swallowing. Zabuza lifted his head, blood and intestines dripping from it's mouth as it let out a satisfied roar and began to slowly stand up. Suddenly a loud electric zap was heard and a bunch of lights lit up the area. Satsuki screamed as a wire sparked to life and started whipping around threatening to strike the ravenette and the blonde. Naruto reacted quickly and pushed both of them away from the sparking wire. Leaving them exposed to Zabuza's view.
The corpse roared and began to run towards the two. Chains appeared and wrapped around both Satsuki and himself in a protective barrier. Zabuza swung his sword over his head and slammed it into the wall of chains. The sword cracked against the chakra chains but they didn't budge. Before he could tray again it was shot in the shoulder before bringing up his sword to block another shot. Haku shot at him 3 more times before his 1911 no longer had ammo. He tossed the weapon at him before reaching for his SPAS-12. Before he could aim in, Zabuza was on him ready to strike. Sakura began to fire upon him as well causing it to stop it's charge. As it defended from Sakura's onslaught, a chakra chain made it's way towards him quickly but was deflected by the Kubikiribōchō. The chain wrapped itself around the sword causing the zombie to pull the sword back with all its might, yanking Naruto away from the Uchiha and headed towards Zabuza. "Naruto!" She cried out as he raced towards Zabuza.
Naruto was grabbed by his throat and slammed into the ground. He stared into the glowing red eyes as the reanimated corpse as it roaed in his face. He smirked as barbed chains exploded in every direction intending to impale the corpse. Instead Zabuza jumped back onto a ship before it roared as loud as it could. The floor started to crack and slowly arms would appear from the ground. Haku noticed that along with summoning more, some of the ones the were lured away were now returning. Sakura was grabbed by the leg, causing her to let out a scream before she stomped it's head in. A green flash was seen followed by a familiar voice.
"FIRE SALE!"
An upbeat jingle was heard throught the area along with multiple boxes rolling down from the clouds. One box landed next to them. They saw the familiar question marks on it as a blue light exploded from it. Zabuza roared once more before something flew towards its head faster than Satsuki's sharingan could track. It's head jerked towards one side before the rest of the body to turned to water. They looked over to where they suspected the shot came from and saw a glint coming from the light house. Suddenly Kakashi's voice was heard all over the area. "Grab a weapon from the box and find a working ship, NOW!"
Kakashi left his students and slowly made his way towards the light house. He was careful not to alert any zombies to his presence. Although that wouldn't seem to last long. He's seen these creatures before when his sensei was still around. Zombies is what they called them. Stories of them throught the 3rd shinobi war were rare. Even then most people believed it to just be a jutsu.
But he knew what they were. They appeared on their mission to Kanabi bridge. Fallen soldiers from both sides attacked them. Kakahi shook his head as he was getting side tracked. One thing he did remember was that they can learn. Slowly but they learn. Kakashi ducked under some rocks as 3 undead stumbled about. He checked his surroundings. 'They're crowding the door. Probably trying to get to whoever is in there.'
Kakashi pulled it his kunai and lunged towards them. He stabbed the first one in the head killing instantly. The other 2 turned towards him only for one to get hit with the now fully dead zombie taling it to the ground. Kakashi then proceeded to kick the back of the knee causing it to fall on its knees before Kakashi threw him into the crashing waves below. As the last one managed to get up from it's undead comrade. Kakashi spun around and kicked it's head. Upon making contact, the jaws of the zombie shattered as it's head was torn off its shoulders. Having a better vantage point he looked over to the docks and noticed Zabuza had just touched down and was slowly looking around. 'Damn I need to help them!" He ran inside and saw that it was dark. Dim lights were lit but didn't give much in terms of visibility.
"Where are you!" Kakashi cried out. He couldn't see much but the layout already seemed off. It seemed as if it was more than just a standard lighthouse purpose. A bunch of switches, monitors, and overall lab equipment. "I'm up here!" A voice called out from above. He could see a ladder heading up there but wasn't sure what was up there. "I need you to turn on the power to this area so I can get out of this room." Kakashi was skeptical and asked. "How does that work?" Since when does a door need power to open a lighthouse room?
"Look i don't know I'm just a worker here. I ran in here while everything went down. Suddenly the lights turned dim and the doors wouldn't budge. Please just get it on and help me out." Kakashi didn't believe her when she said she didn't know. She had to be hiding something. "How do I do that?" She explained where to find the switch as well as that her door needed to be opened from the outside. Kakashi bolted towards the switch. He grabbed a lever which was at an awkward angle before pulling down. Sparks flew and the lights quickly turned on. Kakashi didn't stop to think about how the reason the lever was awkward was because he grabbed a severed arm that held a tight grip over the handle of the switch.
He made his way back as fast as he could. He opened the door and was met with a blue haird woman in a long ponytail. He quickly made his way to the top of the light house with her. Suddenly he heard a demonic voice followed by a jingle. Kakashi didn't have time to think as a broken pile of boxes suddenly vanished followed by a familiar box with question marks on it. He wasted no time in opening it. He watched in frustration as the box slowly cycled through the weapons before it landed on a long and heavy looking weapon. He took it with out question and started running towards the top. The woman he saved struggled to keep up with him. But it didn't matter. Making it to the top he saw a bunch of blue beacon in the sky. He ignored those and found Zabuza on top of a ships mast. He quickly took aim and was surprised at how zoomed into Zabuza's corpse actually was. It seemed like he was right infront of him so Kakashi quickly lined up his shot and fired. The weapon shot was powerful, Kakashi didn't expect it so the guns recoil caused him to stumble back and rub his eye which now had a red imprint of the scope he was looking through. He didn't pay attention as Zabuza died once more.
Kakashi saw that his shot landed and immediately channeled chakra into his voice "Grab a gun from the box and find a working ship. NOW!" He turned and started to question the woman. "What's your-" he was cut off as she lunged at him. Her eyes glowed red as she tried to bite him. Kakashi held her back with one hand, holding her chin so he wouldn't get bit. He held her back as he reached into his bag and stabbed her in the head. She fell limp. Kakashi was breathing heavily. 'What the hell have we gotten ourselves into?' He asked himself as he stood up. He watched as the box near him suddenly vanished in a flash of lightning. He used the scope of his weapon to look at his team. He watched as Naruto grabbed a zombie and slammed it into a bunch of others. He then proceeded to go on the offensive, tearing the apart and sometimes using the severed limbs as a weapon. Satsuki was dodging and slashing them along with her kunai. She would stab one in the head and use the body of the corpse as a barrier against the others. Using her new weapon that fired quickly into the crowd to clear her path before replacing her corpse shield. Sakura was screaming as she fired wildly into the crowd. It seemed she didn't have a plan. She was just trying to survive.
Kakashi wasted no time in pulling the trigger to help out his pink haired student. Sakura looked surprised as the head of a couple corpses exploded due to his shots. He fired to he heard a new familiar click. He reached for his pouch to reload when he suddenly heard he growl behind him. He turned to see a horde of undead began to close in on him. He started firing wildly into the crowd, trying to fend him off. However it was all for naught as soon he became overwhelmed. He swung his weapon as a club and threw kunai at the undead to slow them down. Alas, there were to many to fight. He stabbed a zombie in the head only for another to grab his arm and bite into it. He screamed in pain and tried to fight them off. However their were to many of them. Another corpse grabbed his other arm and started eating it's way to the bone. Before Kakashi knew it, a bunch of hand started digging into his torso tearing out is muscles and intestines. Kakashi could only scream in pain as he met his end at the hands of the overwhelming horde. The last thing he felt, was insulted as he heard laughter, right before an undead tore out his jugular with it's teeth.
Sakura was fighting for her life but it seemed to be futile. She followed her sensei's advice and grabbed a new weapon from the box. She didn't get to fully inspect her weapon when she grabbed it. The only thing she could remember was the first 3 letters of each word, R.P.K. She didn't care is it fulfilled her purpose. She owed down wave after wave of zombies as they rushed to her location. Her body shook with the weight of the recoil of her new weapon. She struggled to keep it contained as she sprayed all those who approached her. Her ears begin to ring from how loud her gunfire was. She paid it no mind. She was fighting for her survival. She heard a growl from behind so she swung her weapon around. Smacking a zombie to the ground before firing at the horde behind it. She killed about 10 of them before the dreaded click was heard. "NO! WAIT! WAI-" she was cut off as one grabbed her from behind and started chewing on her shoulder. She screamed in pain before trying to attack it to cause it to let go. However as she swung her arm, three other arms reached out stopping her swing in it's tracks. She screamed as she felt 4 pairs of hands dig into her abdomen and start eating her. With tears in her eyes she succumbed to her fate. It felt as the universe was mocking her as she barley managed to hear her screams over the sounds of laughter.
Haku threw kunai after kunai at the undead. A small group of 10 zombies dropped as they chatted at him. '10 down!' He thought tom himself exhausted. He looked behind him to see a another horde right behind him. He readied himself against the onslaught and created 2 ice clones. They each had a shard of ice in their hand as a kunai. Each of them charged in to meet their fates. One ice cloned stabbed his shard into the head of one before taking it out by kicking the corpse into the crowd. It kept firing the 1911 only to see it have no effect. Too many of them were heading towards him. It used the gun to smack one in the head with enough force to crack it. Soon enough he was surrounded by too many of them. As they started to dig into his flesh the one smirked before exploding into a bunch of ice. Haku stood his ground. Slashing at the undead as they came. Unfortunately, not all went down with a single strike. Some of the corpses he slashed would fall dead while others would continue their pursuit. Crawling their way towards him. He slashed at everything that moved. High or low there was nowhere that could avoid his swings of dismemberment. Although, just like everyone else in the Wave village, he too started to become overwhelmed. Stabbing and slashing Haku gathered the last of his chakra into himself. He punched, kicked, and slashed. Every zombie he stuck down was replaced with 5 more. He felt both his arms and legs getting restrained by the horde. As he felt the teeth of all the undead dig into him he had one final thought, 'I'll see you soon master.' Those were his last thoughts before he used the last of his chakra to cause a giant ice explosion killing many and freezing many more in their place. Sadly, it wasn't enough to stop the onslaught the last thing he heard as he choked on his own blood was the sound of laughter.
Naruto and Satsuki fought together with their backs connected. Every zombie that attacked Naruto was quickly dispatched by his chains. The longer he held them back the more tired he would become. He looked over to Satsuki who was using her sharigan to dodge amd counter every strike that she was met with. Naruto would use his chakra chains which would extend to 3 feet, bought them some time. Satsukk kept slashing and stabbing her undead enemies. Trying to cause a dent in their forces. Satsuki back handed a corpse before stabbing another. She went for a kick that was grabbed by the horde she screamed as she tried to pull her leg back. Naruto stopped fighting his half to help her. "SATSUKI!" He reached out for her but was grabbed from behind and pulled away. Satsuki screamed in pain as she felt he leg get bit into then torn off. She cried for Naruto but was immediately silenced as more undead overtook her. Naruto fell to the ground fighting off as much as he could. He channeled the Kyuubi's chakra to see if it would burn them off. However it seemed that some would react while others it seemed to have no effect. In his desperation, Naruto set off all his left over paper bombs and expolded.
"NARUTO!" Satsuki yelled as she sat up in her futon. Her screaming died down once she saw where she was. "Tazuna's?" This place was destroyed wasn't it? A deep gasp and exhale caught her attention and she saw Sakura rising as well. Sakura gathered her bearings before looking over at the Uchiha. "W-what!?" Satsuki shook her head. Suddenly the door opened and Tsunami walked in. "Hey I just wanted to let you know that breakfast is read- Is something wrong?" Tsunami noticed the pale faces and rapid breathing and was concerned. "N-no we're ok. We'll see you down there."
"Wonderful I've already told your sensei as well as Naruto." With that she left. A few seconds went by before Naruto and Kakashi themselves walked into the room. Kakashi checked if the coast was clear before closing the door behind him. He turned to them.
