❄️?????? POV ❄️
I was heading back home after staying overnight at the dojo. I had to clean things up after my new students thought they can beat me when I told them I am quirkless. I mean I'm not wrong. I didn't have a quirk since I was gifted with Chakra. After showing off my strength, many didn't believe I was strong without a quirk.
I flung one of the gaki's(brats) that had a rock quirk into the wall and now their was a hole in my dojo. Kids these days with their egos saying that they'll be the best hero, fighter, martial artists, Hokage...
Damn these kids really remind me of that damn brat, boasting on how they will become the greatest. Yet there was something that they lack that, that brat had, Naruto...
❄️Flashback❄️
After I closed my eyes as a laid beside Haku's body, all I saw was pitch black as if I were asleep and in an endless dream. I don't know how long I was in that strange place. Where am I? Is this Heaven? Hell? Or do neither of them exist and it is all an endless void of darkness. Although all of a sudden I felt as if I was waking up. Until I knew it I actually was. My eyes were wide awake and I am in a... forest?
I looked around and saw I wasn't alone. I was jumping from tree to tree as I noticed the three people right next to me.
Haku... I thought good wouldn't let me go to the place you were going or was it my fault. Were my sins so heavily embedded on you that you were forced to come with me?
I'm sorry I failed you little rabbit...
Although the two people next to me I've seen them before on the bingo book.
Pakura of the Scorch Release. Hero of the Sand. She possesses the Scorch Release Kekkei Genkai and is hailed a hero in her home village of Sunagakura. She had manged to stop Iwagakura plans against Suna during a feud and earned her status as a hero. A very respectibal kunoichi, a woman that many future kunoichi's dream of becoming, beautiful, elegant and strong. A Mid A-RANK ninja.
The other person is a man he named Gari of the Explosion Release. He in possesses the Explosion Release Kekkei Genkai and is part of the Explosions Corps of Iwagakura. He infuses his Kekkei Genkai with his Taijutsu to launch powerful explosions as it makes physical contact with the enemy, effectively killing them. He is a very calm man even during under pressure. A low A-RANK ninja.
"Master Zabuza, do you have any idea where we are?" Haku asked.
"I don't know but as you can see we are not alone" I replied as all four of us began to make eye contact with each other.
"Zabuza Momochi: Demon of the Mist" said Gari as he eyed me. "A High A-RANK, former 7 Deadly Ninja Swordsmen, Rouge Ninja from Kirigakure, wanted for a coupe d'etat against the 4th Mizukage, Yagura."
"That's me what about it?" I growled.
"Nothing we know about you but who is that girl" Said Pakura as she pointed at Haku. I chuckled as Haku turned red.
"M-my name is Haku Yuki" he stuttered. Ehhhh? Did Haku just stuttered? What the hell is going on with that boy? "I am Master Zabuza's tool" he said bluntly as the two glared at me. I sweat dropped.
"You really are a demon! How low have yoy gone to having your own personal play toy!" Said an angry Pakura

"What did you do to her to make her so disheartened and emotionless!?!" Said Gari.
"No I'm a boy!" Shouted Haku. "And I am not disheartened and emotionless" he said as a tick mark was forming on his forehead.
"Ohh..." said an embarrassed Pakura and Gari as I laughed. " But what do you mean by tool" said Pakura.
"I fight for-" I cut Haku out.
"He fights ALONG side me" I said, not wanting to keep Haku back in his own imprisonment.
"Do you have any idea where we are?" Pakura asked.
"Hell?" I said. I felt guilty thinking I accidentally took Haku with me.
"I don't know but why are we moving without control over our bodies" said Haku. "And what is up with our eyes" he said as he formed an ice mirror just so we can see our own reflection. Each one of our eyes were dark gray-black but our pupil's had color.
"I think it has to do with someone's jutsu, possibly a reanimation. That must be why we aren't in any control of our movements. Although, the question is who is behind this?" I said.
"I don't know but I sense we have company" said Haku as he had his eyes closed sensing the chakra around him.
Just then we noticed strange black and white birds swooping down with explosive tags straight towards us.
Luckily if it wasn't for Haku's quick thinking I would have been blown up. He mades a dome out of ice to protect us.
"Are you alright, Master Zabuza?" Said Haku as he kept the dome in place.
"Looks like you wasted a jutsu, Haku" I said. The reanimation jutsu revives the dead, but they can't be killed" I said as Gari began to regenerate from the blast. "I don't like this jutsu..." I looked up and saw people riding bigger versions of those birds and a red flare going off. "Good job for noticing them Haku"
"I gotta say I am impressed you noticed the attack" said Pakura as she gave Haku a smile.
"Thank you, that species of giant bird fly in pairs. They worked together to catch their pray. However, that's during the winter when they are raising their young... And that looks like a beacon made to looks like a cloud. No doubt, the enemy that attack is over there." he said pointing towards the direction to where they came from.
"My you really are kinda smart" smirked Pakura
"T-thank youuuu" stuttered Haku as he looked away from Pakura hiding a blushed will with his elbow.
Pakura noticed this and gave a small chuckle.
"Hmph, looks like the hormones are kicking in. Should've expect that since he was of that age. I didn't even know he was into older women with all that crossdressing... I thought he was gay for Naruto" I thought letting out a chuckle.
"You couldn't include me in your little shield?" Said an irritated Gari.
"Sorry..." Said Haku. Being around this girl really gets rid of Haku's seriousness...
Haku then got it together and looked up towards those birds in the sky.
"Leave it to me" he said
*Up in the air *
❄️3rd POV❄️
Sai and Omoi are riding on the Hawks that's when the air around them began to change.
"Lighting?" Said Omoi
"A cold air?" Questioned Sai.
Just then a large chunk of ice can be seen forming on top of the squad.
"Secret Jutsu: Crystal Ice Mirrors!" Shouted Haku as he appeared in the reflection of the ice mirror; launching senbons towards the birds, destroying them and making the Ninja's fall down the sky.

The Ninja's had managed to break their fall by landing in the trees, but they landed in front of the reanimated Ninja's.
"Hey... That thing..." Said one of the Ninja's.
"What? Their just kids" said Pakura in surprise.
"We can't die. So we strike." Said Gari as he ready his fists.
"They are all Kekkei Genkai Shinobi!" Said one of the ally ninja.
"I'm not, I'm different..." Said Zabuza.
"We bear no grudge against you" said Haku. "We're just not in control of our actions" he said as he pulled out his senbon and Zabuza a kunai.
"They're coming" said an ally Shinobi as they got into fighting stance. The reanimated Shinobi charged at them only to be stopped by a surprise visit.
"Kakashi..." Said a stunned Zabuza being reunited with the perver- Copy Ninja.
❄️ Zabuza POV❄️
"Kakashi..." I spoke, showed seeing the masked man once again, right in front of me.
"Thank you Kakashi sensei" said the pale boy.
"I knew we would have to fight, but I never imaged it would be against you, Kakashi" I stated as our eyes locked onto each other remembering our fight on the bridge.
"That day on the bridge, you were supposed to finish me off and send me to hell" I said as our kunais began to push each other back. "When I came to, I was in the same place as Haku. It seems this place isn't heaven or hell" I finished. More Ninja's began to arrive behind Kakashi and the other group.
"This is the world of the living. You're under the reanimation jutsu" he said.
"Reanimation Jutsu?" I asked.
"That's right. The Akatsuki brought you back from the world of the Dead." He said.
"Wait does he know him?" Asked one of the Ninjas.
"Zabuza... Haku..." Said the pink haired girl. I remember her. She is part of that brat's team. The one who who kept on crying 'Sasuke'. I think her name was useless... No Sakura.
Haku then looked at that girl's direction. It looks like he remembers her as well.
"Oh... You've matured. Kakashi Kunoichi." I said. She doesn't seem to be a whiny bitch that's for sure.
"How is that kid? I asked as Haku's and Sakura's eyes widen.
"Huh? Uh huh..." Is the only response the girl gave.
I can see Haku lost in thought. He must be thinking about that Naruto brat.
"We lost because of him" I said as Haku looked at me. "He must be all grown up. He's probably famous too."
"Yeah, that bridge is now called the Great Naruto Bridge." Said Kakashi. "Everyone in the village causing the miraculous hero now." Haku visibly paused. "Thanks to you both, Naruto was able to find his Ninja Way. And he made a pledge at your graves and he's grown into a fine Shinobi since then" Kakashi finished.
Haku sighed as his cold looked was replaced with a smile. He looked at Kakashi and said, "Then he will become even stronger".
*Meanwhile at some hide out*
❄️3rd POV❄️
A knock off Orochimaru was seen on the ground, playing checker all by him self with clay pebbles because he was poor and had no friends.
"Were you able to reminisce a little" said Kabuto. "Because it's time to get serious! The main act starts now!" He said as he performed some hand signs.
*Back on the battlefield*
❄️ Zabuza POV ❄️
"Kakashi... Stop us..." I said. I felt my chest getting heavy and burning. I felt pain in a body that shouldn't. I can feel it... My chakra leaking out. No... I can see my demonic chakra, and so can the rest of the Ninjas. Haku's snowy white chakra can be seen leaking out as well.
"Fall back" Kakashi shouted as the Ninjas fell back.
I'm beginning to see more... Damn! Why do I keep flashing back towards that damn battle of the bridge. Is it because it it is where the demon died and became human.
Heh... Maybe it's because I like that damn brat...
Naruto Uzumaki huh...? You-
"I'm beginning to lose conscious..." Said Haku cutting me out of my thoughts.
"Damn..." I muttered trying to be awake.
"The inside of my head... It feels so hot..." Muttered Gari as he held his head in pain. Pakura then began to clutch her chest feeling the affects of the Jutsu taking over.
"This aura... So this is the Demon Zabuza!" muttered the man who I believe is named Might Guy. "On top of that the Ice Style child!"
"Be on guard Guy! Stay alert" said Kakashi being on guard. "No one comes close to him in Silent Killing!"
"Kakashi... Please... Stop us once again..." Said Haku as winced in pain. "My dream was always to be Master Zabuza's tool and die protecting him..." He said as his head looked down.
"The fact that Master Zabuza is under the power of the Jutsu means..." He said as his voice begins to crack. "...that I was not able to protect them from you back then. Furthermore, not only am I incapable of protecting Master Zabuza. I can't even serve him as his tool now!" he cried.
Haku... I'm sorry... I'm sorry I didn't realize it sooner. I sorry I didn't notice you were in pain...
"No. You protected Zabuza." Said Kakashi. "He died for different reason. And... Zabuza never thought of you as a tool"
Haku then looked at me as his expression changed to confusion.
Damnit Kakashi...
"Damnit Kakashi quit babbling nonsense" I croaked as I began to cry.
"Naruto dug deep into Zabuza's heart." Kakashi said as I looked back seeing flashes of Haku's death...
*Meanwhile at the hide out*
"Zabuza and Haku huh...?" Said Kabuto. "They're quite tenacious. I still haven't been able to bind them completely... I'll sue turn you into mere killing puppets! You are my tools!" Shouted a crazed Kabuto.
*Back at the Battle*
❄️Zabuza POV❄️
"
K-Kakashi. Don't hesitate." I said as I can feel my mind almost getting completely taken over. "Use whatever means it takes... To stop me." I said. "I died already. I died human." Croaked as Haku looked at me with tears in his eyes.
"Yes I know" said Kakashi as he began to reveal his Sharingan.
Haku then began to loose what ounce of strength he had left to wipe his tears.
"Thank you" he said happily.
But just before the four of us were taken over he managed to have one final conversation that made me question everything about him...
"Hey, Sakura right? Can I ask you something " He said as he gave her a gentle smile.
Just what are you doing Haku?
"Umm yeah that's me!" She jittered in surprise. "What do you want to say"
"Are you dating Naruto or does he already have a girlfriend?" He asked kindly. This confused me now. Pakura and Gari had a puzzled looked while the Ninjas we're confused.
"I thought you liked girls Haku? Ohhh you must be Bi..." I thought.
"Ummm No! Why would I got with that Baka! Besides there's someone who I think already likes him" she said a bit flustered as her cheeks were rosy. Some 'ooohhhs' can be heard from the ninja behind them.
"Well just remind the Bitch that ends up marrying him that I was his first!" He stated as he gave her a kind smile. He then gently rubbed his stomach giving the Ninjas a hint.
"...." All of us stood there not moving, not making a sound.
What the fuck Haku?
*Meanwhile at another location* A girl with purple hair and white eyes sneezed, sensing a strange disturbance in the air.
* Back on the Battlefield*
"Whooooahh! The hero managed to score himself with a hot chick" shouted the male ninjas as they praised Naruto.
"Naruto so youthful" cried Lee as Guy joined.

The universe is a very strange place. It will take even stranger heroes to save it."Absurd. Existential. Ridiculous. Tragic. Comic. The antiheroes of "I Don't Seem So Bright in a Well-Lit Room" are a kind of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern with space packs, inadvertently colliding with their destinies against a starry background of witty wordplay. With a vision as sprawling and limitless as the loveably goofy universe in which it's set, Browning's wit, wisdom and heart are always at play, combining to form a wonderfully panoramic and very silly heroes' journey that visits every trope of its overlapping genres and draws moustaches on all of them."- Marcel St. Pierre, author of "Vengeful Hank" and "Cliché and Wind Go Hitchhiking".(Sci-fi /Dark Humour/Absurd) *Completed!
