"-Entry Log 153: Dear Diary, Dinner with the Hokage went great! He has increased our funding for a bit so we could study more of the rock. More funding, more materials, and more test sunjects! We just finished setting up the calibrations for hopefully our final teleportation test. I'm confident in the test that - *static* -oing to be the test subject for the final test. Both my apprentice and new Hokage have shared concerns, but I know I've got it this time! If my calculations are correct, I will apesr in the mainframe at the center of the facility. *static* -I know it will!

"-My lord, I dont think this is a good idea! At least let me be the test subject. That way, you can still - *static* -case it fails!""No, Anko, I'm confident in my calculations and will be fine.

"But -"

"Who's the master here!"

"You are.."

"That's right, my dear, I am. I know what im doing. I've spent a long time perfecting this project.. It will work. There, I'm suited up, get to the controls."

"Ready?"

*sounds of a breathing apparatus is heard*

"I'm ready. It's time for my work to finally be completed!"

Initiating Teleportation Sequence

"Lord Orochimaru, do you read me? My lord? Orochimaru, do you read me!? Oh no, no, no, no, no... Fuck, OROCHI-

Present:

He was running as fast as he could. Damn this stupid pink kimono he was wearing. It seemed like a good idea at the time, as a way to hide his true identity, but in hindsight, he could've easily worn clothing that allowed for more mobility. No use in regretting it now he had to get back to his master. Something happened at the mansion that he could tell. The closer he got to it, the more walking corpses appeared. They didn't climb up the trees. They just chased him down on foot, screaming and hissing as he passed by. Whether it was because they were dead and no chakra to control or because they were ordinary thugs when they turned, Haku didn't know or care right now. Nonetheless, he was still being chased, and even if he was slowly gaining distance between the shamblers, they were still heading his direction. 'This is a freaking nightmare! I knew there was something wrong about that mansion! Zabuza-sama, please be ok!" A hiss broke him from his thoughts.

"WRAAAAAAGH"

Haku threw himself to another tree as one of the undead appeared from around the trunk of the tree. Haku looked back in shock to see that the same corpse fell out of the tree and landed head first before it attempted to stand up. It didn't seem to be able to jump tree to tree like he thought. Was it waiting for him to get to that tree to attempt an attack? How did it even know to be up there? 'They seem to have some basic understanding of coordinating attacks,' he thought to himself. He continued to the mansion no making sure to check his landing. Some trees had the shamblers while others had them climbing, trying to position themselves for an ambush. Some would slip and tumble to the bottom, which would've made for a comical sight under different circumstances. He slowed his pace as he reached the edge of the mansion.

It was a wreck. Parts of the building had been blown apart from the east wing of the mansion. Did Gato have explosives? Maybe, but that didn't matter at the time. The parts that were blown apart had been set on fire as well. Some of these fires caused parts of the roof to cave in. It's hard to believe that this was the same place he and Zabuza used to occupy just hours ago. Haku scanned the area and noticed some of the doors and windows were barricaded. Probably, the bandits attempt to keep the bodies out before they overwhelm them. His master had to be alive. Even with the overwhelming numbers, his master was alive. "Almost there, Zabuza-sama." He looked down to see that they were already climbing his tree with difficulty. They would fall down, lose their grip, or accidentally pull another off. However, some were succeeding with their attempts. Haku didn't want to go on foot, but the trees ended where he stood. He still had another 20 meters before he had access to the mansion.

With a deep breath, he steeled his nerves and checked his bag. 18 senbon and 6 kunai. Not very good odds, He needed to get to the room to save Zabuza and resupply. A change of clothes wouldn't hurt either. Suddenly, a decayed hand grabbed his ankle, and he screamed in shock, yanking his foot away before kicking the dead climber down the tree. They were much closer than he thought. He gathered his chakra to his feet before he jumped as far as he could before landing roughly 20 feet from the door. Haku sprinted towards the door. If the undead here weren't aware of his presence, they sure as shit were now as they started yelling. He bashed the door in with the help of a chakra infused shoulder bash to destory the wooden door. Haku held the shoulder he used to destroy the door. It hurt like hell, even with chakra to support the breaking of the door. He ignored the pain and pushed forward.

There wasn't that many inisde but that'll change soon. They heard him coming, and he remembered those who were chasing him back here. He ran through the mansion, heading to the main room to go upstairs. Random parts had been blocked off via debris from the ceiling, along with some make shift barricades that were set up in a vain attempt to keep the horde at bay. The smell of death was thick in the air, and it tasted if copper. He was familiar with this sensation. His father made sure of that when he was younger. He slowed down his pace as he scanned his surroundings. Parts of the stairs had fallen apart, disconnecting the 2nd floor to any civilian. A ninja could make the jump. Haku began to make his way to the room he last left Zabuza. A corpse grabbed Haku as he walked through a doorway. He grabbed the things face, trying to keep it from biting him. Haku threw the body off of him before he stomped on its head. It took a few, but he managed to cave in the skull before the red glow of the eyes faded from the cadaver's eyes. Before he could react, Haku was attacked by another corpse. He pushed it off of himself before he ran back and jumped towards the second floor. He ran down the bloody hallway, a couple of bloodstained hand prints decorated the walls. A bunch of broken pieces of debris littered the floor as he ran.

Suddenly, 3 of the dead appeared from rooms in the hall. He threw a senbon at each one of the eyes, blinding the decayed group. That didn't stop them though, as they continued their appoarch. He grabbed a random object from the floor and swung it with a gtunt of effort, hitting one on the left side of its head. He twirled around before hitting the second one in the face, pushing in the senbon deeper into its skull. The third on grabbed him and tried to bite, but Haku was quick to jam the piece of wood in its mouth to stop its bite from landing. Its lips were gone, showing its yellow disgusting teeth as they tried to gnaw at him. Its two glowing red eyes bore into his as Haku started to lose the battle of strength. His right shoulder ached from its previous job of destorying the door. He dropped to a knee before he redirected the weight to his left, dropping his assailant.

Haku pulled out a kunai and yelled as he stabbed it into the corpse's face, ending its mockery of life. He pulled out the kunai and heard footsteps behind him. They were catching up to him. He continued forward and turned the corner, Zabuza was at the end of this hall. However, he could see his master's door broken down. He didn't think he just acted. He ran towards the room, not caring about his surroundings. This caused him to trip over a corpse and fall face first into the ground. He saw movement in the room and was horrified to see that three undead thugs emerged from the room. He tried to get up quickly, but his bag was grabbed by the corpse he tripped over earlier, ripping it off of him. He kicked the thing in the face, but the other three were on him before he could get up. He fought with all he could, but it was no use. They had him in their grasp and their new lunch. He was in for a guresome death.

The legendary Kubikiribōchō blade cleaved the two on top of him in half before it was embedded in the wall. He looked up to see his master leaning against the wall with a bang slung over his shoulder, pointing an object at the corpse holding his leg. Haku watched as Zabuza's finger squeezed a button quickly before three loud bangs were heard. The head of the coprse suddenly had three holes, and it stopped moving. The light faded from the undead's eyes, confirming its permanent death. Zabuza's arm dropped, and he held himself up on the wall. Haku wasted no time. "Master!" he got up and ran to help, "You should've never come back!" Zabuza snapped at his apprentice.

Deep down, he was grateful Haku came back for him when he could've easily abandoned him here. If he got out of this alive, he would apologize to him. The red glow of another undead's eyes broke them from their thoughts. It moaned as it stumbled around the corner. Zabuza pointed his weapon before he pulled the trigger of the 'Colt 1911A1'. What is a Colt? He didn't know. It was engraved on the metal, so he assumed that's what it was called. But that didn't matter. What did matter was that he put 5 shots into the corpse's head, ending it. "What is that?" Haku asked his master. He's never seen such a device. It wouldn't be good for stealth missions as it was loud. Very loud. If the other bodies didn't know where to find them, the loud bang definitely made sure of it. Zabuza looked at Haku. "I was hoping you would explain. It was in your bag! Ugh, you remember how to use the blade?" Haku nodded, and with effort and the help of his chakra, he was able to lift the sword. He should be more mobile with it when he trains more with it.

"You seem to have some familiarity with it." Haku retored to his master who just snorted. "I had roughly 20 minutes to inspect it. Point and pull this trigger thing and change this thing out," he pushed a button on the side and Haku watched as a metal cartridge came out of the bottom of the L shaped object before Zabuza pulled out another one and inserted it. He finished by pulling the top part back, which resulted in a clicking sound. "That's about what I managed to figure out. However, this is the last magazine. There are engravings that name these things... I think I've been more of a trial and error. Come one, we need to get out of here." Zabuza motioned with his."We should've left ages ago!"

"Don't you sass me, young man, or maggot addicts will be the least of yor concerns." He gets it. He messed up accepting this job. "How prepared are you?" he asked. Haku pattwd himself down before realizing that he never picked it up when he left. "Nothing at the moment. I have more equipment in our room." Zabuza replied immediately. "Not anymore I used them to fend these fuckers off for a bit. We have roughly 10 kunai left and i dont think senbon needles aren't very effective against them." Things where looking grim. Not many weapons left to fight them off and Zabuza's new weapon seemed to be low as well. Looks like Zabuza's sword is their best option. Haku heard a noise up ahead and saw 2 more undead walking towards him. Haku used a lot of his strength to swing the sword to cut them in half via the waist. It sliced through them perfectly and got stuck in another part of the wall.

The corpses didnt seem to mind having lost its limbs since it proceeded to crawl towards them, leaving their legs behind. Using his chakra, Haku pulled the blade from the wall and sliced the heads off breathing heavily. How did his Master run arpund with this thing? Suddenly a green glow appeared above one of the bodies. Zabuza and Haku stared at the glowing orb and noticed a golden kunai pouch inside. Haku didn't know why he reached out for it. He just knew it was calling him despite not knowing what would happened. He didn't hear Zabuza yelling at him to stop approaching. The entire thing disappeared the moment he made contact with the orb and they heard a demonic voice that startled them.

"MAX AMMO!"

They both looked at each other confused. Did they hear the voice in their head? Or was it an actual voice that yelled at them? And max ammo? Zabuza didn't understand what that meant unless... He checked the bag the he now realized felt slightly heavier. He looked inside amd saw that he now had 10 more of the magazines he dropped earlier along with 22 more kunai in his pouch that weren't there before. "I don't know how but it seems weve ben restocked on everything including this," he lifted up his weapon before throwing some kunai at Haku. suddenly part of the ceiling collapsed reminding them that they were still in a burning buiding! The direct path to the exit is now blocked they had to take another path. Haku strapped the sword to his back with a little difficulty and helped Zabuza, who handed him the thing. "Here you have better aim than me. When you here the click here and eject the magazine." They headed towards the end of the hall which had a stair way that should lead them to another part of the wing that should lead to main entrance. At least thats what they hoped. They made it there with little problem until they opened the door.

"Yreaaagh"

One of them was on the other side causing them to fall back. Its glowing red eyes bored into them as it lunged attempting to take its bite. Haku kicked it back then pointed the weapon in his hand and pulled the trigger till he heard a click. He fired off 8 shots to the head before the clicks were heard and the body dropped the glow faded from its eyes. Picking themselves up they made into the stairwell. The stairs leading to the roof had been broken. "Can you use your chakra?" Haku asked his master who had grunted. He gathered his chakra and attempted to climb the wall. He slipped. "Not yet, my body is still groggy from going in that near death state." Front door it is. They made their way down the stairs. While it wasn't more than 2 flights of stairs, it felt long. There was an unusual silence the entire time they made it down. Every step echoed throughout the stairwell. They tensed as they got closer to the door that led to the first floor. "What's that?" Zabuza pointed at something on the wall next to the door. It was a chalk drawing of something they did not know. They just saw a rectangular object with another rectangle sticking out from under it. "Was this always here?" Zabuza asked out loud. He ran his hand across the drawing, trying to see if it would come off until he felt a familiar texture. Which was odd considering that it should've just been part of a wooden wall, but it felt like the thing he handed Haku. Wrapping his fingers around it he felt the sensation of a trigger like the other one before trying to pull his hand back.

As he did this another weapon came out of the chald drawing revealing what it was supposed to be. It was a long metal piece with a wooden grip where he held the thing with another part of it sticking out going down infront of it. Another part of the gun had a wooden grip. It felt heavier so maybe for better support? Didn't matter, the back part of it was a weird wooden part that seemed to press into his shoulder when he tried to look down the barrel. He looked over and Haku pointed to the side of it. "Look, 'Thompson M1A1', what's a Thompson?"

"I'm assuming it's the name of this thing. How did it come out of the wall? Who did the drawing? Why was this bag so damned heavy!" Zabuza dropped the bag and looked inside to see long rectangular objects with what looked like what his previous weapon had. Zabuza saw the word 'magazine' crudley carved into the metal. "So it is a similar contraption. Come on we're getting put of here!" he said with new found vigor. These weapons will definitely help fend off those freakbags. He checked the bag one last time and saw that the 'Max Ammo' also refilled his soldier pills. Whatever restocked them only seemed to return what he already had. He didn't get more than 3 which is all he found when this whole thing started. Zabuza took it before he stood up a little straighter. He looked around, none of them have showed up yet.

"Here this one is bigger so hopefully it means its better!" he said handing Haku the 'Thompson' as they assumed thats what it was called. "Uh, I have no idea how to use this thing." Haku stated the obvious. "Neither do I, so we'll figure it out along the way and hope we don't die!" Haku nodded his head at his master's respones before holding it by the wooden parts resting the back piece against his left shoulder. Was this how it was held? It felt right. Was it like a pair of scissors that needed to be designed for both left and right-handed people? It didn't matter they'll learn today. "What about Gato? Did he perish as well?" Haku asked, now thinking about the reason they even showed up here in the first place. To earn money for the coup. Zabuza thought about it for a moment before he responded, "I don't think so. Last I heard, he was gonna try to sell the blue rock to other hidden villages. He's probably not even here at all!" Zabuza growled in frustration. "Whatever, you ready?" Zabuza grabbed the door handle and unlocked it. He took the sword and the 1911 from Haku. He slung the sword to his back and held the wespong ready to fire.

Haku steeled his nerves and braced himself as he nodded. Zabuza opened the door to see a horde of the dead shambling about till they all turned their glowimg eyes at them. Haku pulled the trigger.

*RATATATATATATATATATATATA*

Haku flew back a bit unprepared for the recoil the gun had, killing 5 of them. His weapon was much stronger and much much faster. It wasn't like the 1911, where he had to pull the trigger each time this one you held it down for better results. Thats probably why they had a 2nd grip area. Zabuza was suprised by the weapon as well but he decided to just note the information for later. He started shooting into the crowd of corpses. 4 of them dropped due to the precision of the shoot while a couple more just caught strays. Haku pointed again this time ready for the weapons kick. He pulled the trigger, a part of the weapon would pull back and slide foward with every bang that was heard. He killed 8 more of them before his gun clicked and the moving part pulled foward and stayed there. Haku immediately went into inspecting the weapong for a way to eject the magazine.

Zabuza fired off more shots and slowly moved foward towards the exit. "Come on, Haku more of them are coming!" Haku managed to eject the mag and insert a new one. He pointed again and pulled the trigger, but the weapon kept clicking. "Think, think, think!" Haku muttered to himself trying to figure it out. He turned it to the side and saw the part that movef witj each shot. He pulled it back amd heard a click in the weapon. He pointed again and pulled the trigger, this time it fired. "I think i figured this thing out!" He killed 10 more shamblers before he pressed foward with Zabuza. They both headed towards the exit killing every walking corpse with ease. However, that sound changed until 5 of them screamed before it started running after them. They were running now! "Fuck, fuck, fuck!" Zabuza threw 5 kunai slowing them down while he reloaded. It worked as they stumbled over a bit before continuing their advance. They were immediately riddled with holes as Haku started to cover him. Zabuza shot a few more times before he grabbed his sword and swung it. Slicing them into bits and shooting the ones that survived their dismemberment.

They continued to fight their way through the corridors of the mansion. Pointing and shooting their new weapons and stabbing those who got to close. They would throw the kunai at sprinters to slow them down. Blood was everywhere they fought. Haku's kimono was torn from the lucky few who managed to swipe at him when they got close enough. There were so many of them. All these damned thugs hired for one man! All trying to devor them! They made it to the front door, breathing heavily. How many undead did they dispatch they didn't know. Was it all of them? Most likely not, but they were outside. More of them were headed this way. "Master! The soldier pills!" Zabuza leaned against the door as he handed them over and watched as Haku took the final 2. With the knew burst of energy, he picked up Zabuza and took off into the trees, leaving the area as fast as he could. He didn't stop running till the sun started to rise. They stopped under a tree, far, far away from the mansion. They were safe, for how long? They did not know.

"What the fuck was that!" Zabuza panted out. He was covered in blood. None of it was his own, but it was just so much. Haku didn't look any better. His now dark red kimono was torn apart in so many areas that you were able to see more of his dirt and soot covered skin. "I...I..don't..know..." Haku trailed off, passing out from the exhaustion. Zabuza couldn't blame him. He was losing consciousness himself as the sun slowly rose. He used the last of his strength to get comfortable before he too lost consciousnes. Never noticing an older man floating above them watching with a smile on his face.

Well shit, this took longer than expected to get out. So I've tried to include more elements from the game and decided to have the max ammo drop be more themed for the ninja universe. And I'm sorry to any gun enthusiasts (because you guys are totally reading this fucking thing) for messing up descriptions for the guns. When you already know what it is and try to explain to someone who ddoesn't know what you're talking about is frustrating. But the ninja have never seen a Thompson or pistol so I'm trying to use their perspective.

And Atengawchok, thanks for reviewing! Glad you're enjoying the interactions with the characters! As for you're question on Hinata... well I'm still figuring that out lol but i have an idea. Might not be original but I hope to make you proud!

Also Im using the app for this because i don't own a laptop and this sum bitch is buggy.

I do not own Naruto. I feel like I should put this in the top but like you're gonna be down here to go to the next page sooooo
