Yagura turned to the two captured ninja "Now about you two..." he started rather menacingly, "you guys work for Gato right? What has he been planning for the last month?"

"Like we'd actually tell you, he's the one paying us you know," Zabuza snorted.

"Well then, I guess I'll just let my team practice on you then," Yagura stated with a rather calm smile, causing Naruto and Fu to start jumping up and down excitedly. Gaara just stared at the captured people impassively while Zabuza and Haku stare at the group in disbelief before Zabuza scoffed.

"What do you think that a bunch of brats can do to us? We won't say a thing, right Haku?"

"Of course Zabuza, whatever you say."

The three supposed 'brats' glanced at each other.

'Zabuza is important to Haku isn't he?' Fu asked mentally.

'Looks like it. The opposite is probably true too.' Naruto agreed

'Guess we know what we'll he doing then.'Fu sighed

'I'll go find something I can use as a demonstration then, Fu can you get Zabuza so that I can have some of my sand back?'Gaara asked

'Sure'

With that, Fu quickly wrapped the cloth she had around her wrists around Zabuza's feet, as Gaara withdrew his sand. Naruto and Fu turned back to the two captives as Gaara disappeared off into the forest. They dragged the two missing-nin so that they were closer to each other, and set them up facing each other. As Fu and Naruto stood in the space between the two, Haku watched the two blankly while Zabuza watched the children with contempt clear in his eyes. Naruto quickly summoned two foxes that were about as large as a small horse. One had shining silver fur and was named Shiroma while the other was pitch black except for a few blew markings around the eyes, he was named Kuroshi.

The two foxes glanced around the clearing and, once they understood what was going on, began to circle the two prisoners menacingly, the black one almost biting off Zabuza's head, startling a concerned cry out of Haku before a soft reprimand and a light cuff on the ear from Naruto stopped him. Naruto explained that "No you can't eat or kill them, we're interrogating them right now!"

Kuroshi sniffed and told Naruto"I was just gonna take a little nip, it wouldn't have killed him. Plus, I haven't eaten any humans since you told me that I shouldn't."

"Awww! you listened to me! Yay!" Naruto said happily, hugging Kuroshi around the neck.

"Of course he did Naruto, you were so upset when you caught him eating one that he had to stop, of only to appease you. We can't have our kit all upset because of something that could easily be changed after all," Shiroma explained softly, nuzzling Naruto's neck affectionately.

As this was happening, Gaara came back with a large deer trapped in his sand floating along in the air behind him. Once he got back to the group, he looked directly at Haku and releasing majority of the sand so that there was only a collar of sand around the deer's neck. Free from most of the sand, the creature began to struggle frantically, trying to escape. He was silent for a moment, as if he were contemplating something before he held up an open hand. He made a fist and the sand quickly closed in on a bit of the deer's neck, blood spurting out form under the sand and staining the fur red as the deer fell still, dropping to the ground softly, dead. "That is what I will do to Zabuza if you don't give up the information you have. I will start with a finger, he won't be able to get work much if any if he can't use his hands. Afterwards, I will rid him of his leg making doubly sure that he will be unable to work, let alone fight. when I run out of limbs, I shall kill him. Give up the information quickly if you don't want anything to happen to your precious Zabuza. If you spill, I will let the two of you go and you can even try to fulfill your contract with Gato so that you can still collect that money," he stated blankly, which might have been even more frightening than if he had said such a threat with clear blood thirst.

Haku glanced at Zabuza, clearly panicked, as Zabuza stared at the crimson haired boy in disbelief. Haku glanced around, uncertainty clear on his face as he tried to come up with something that would not violate his master's contract. The bloodstained sand started floating up towards Zabuza and panicked, Haku started spilling everything, even unrelated things like how he came to be with Zabuza, trying desperately to keep his reason for living from suffering from such a fate. Once he was done, he quickly babbled out an apology to Zabuza for betraying his confidence and asked that they be let go.

The three had stared at Haku the entire time that he was babbling, shocked that their plan worked that well, and Yagura was standing right on the other side of the group, calmly noting down all the important parts of what Haku babbled. Since Haku was apparently finished, the three looked at Yagura, a little lost as to what they should do now that they had obtained the information. Yagura sighed a little, and sent the younger members off to clean up the deer carcass and prepare dinner. The three turned to the carcass only to discover Shiroma and Kuroshi, bored since they weren't needed to intimidate the captives anymore, had already eaten most of the deer, only leaving the four legs untouched so that the humans could have supper. Naruto and Fu started preparing the two deer legs for dinner, skinning it and cooking it over the fire, using some of the herbs from before to make the meat even more appetizing. Gaara began to use his sand to drill a hole in the ground for the remains.

As they were doing this, Yagura caught the cloth that the two captives were caught in and carried them a ways away from the campsite. He set them down and faced them "Thank you for the information. As Gaara said, you may go and fulfill your contract with Gato so that you still get paid. Of course, if you let it slip that you told us this information, I will hunt you down and make you wish that you had simply kept silent and let Gaara torture and maybe kill you," he threatened. Staring at the two to be sure that they understood him, he unbound them and left them on their own, heading back to the clearing for dinner.

Once he was gone, Haku bowed down low and began to apologize for the entire event once again. Zabuza simply patted Haku on the shoulder, telling him that "You make the right call Haku, why keep the secrets of a terrible employer like Gato? It's better to just betray him, possibly still collect the payment, and continue to fight another day. There's more money to be earned in the future and more fights to fight in the future after all." before leading the way back to Gato's base.

Sorry that this isn't getting updated every week like I said, but it was spring break, I didn't really have wifi, and I'm not used to updating regularly anyway. I'll work on having more regular updates in the future.
