❄️Zabuza POV❄️

I was supposed to be in hell. Haku was supposed to ascended up towards heaven... And yet here we are... Stuck in the land of the living as soldiers, doing the bidding of another. Who ever cast this cursed reanimation jutsu, I will make sure I'll be the one to behead you.

Me and Haku weren't the only ones here. The scorch style user known as Pakura was here, as well as the explosion style user, Gari.

We were ambushed by strange birds with paper bombs as they tried to blow us up but thanks to the reanimation jutsu we were fine. Haku made a barrier our of ice to try and protect me.

We had noticed where the enemy had launched the attack from above. Haku had decided to take care of it as he used an ice mirror to get up towards the squadron of ninjas.

❄️Haku POV❄️

I had noticed the squadron of ninjas that had attack Master Zabuza and I had decided to take care of the issue myself.

I used an ice mirror to teleport above of the Ninjas in the sky that were flying on the birds.

As my ice mirror began to take form, the ninjas had noticed a change in the temperature of the air.

"A change in the air?" A pale konoha ninja said.

"A storm?" Said a Kumo Nin.

The ninja then looked up and noticed me above. They tried to act but it was to late.

"Secret Jutsu: Crystal Ice Mirror!" I shouted as I launched senbon towards the enemy. The senbon had pierced their form of transportation and they fell right towards the ground. The had luckily been able to catch their fall as they used the trees below to stop themselves from seriously getting hurt.

I teleported back towards my group as both sides got ready to fight. We ran towards the enemy min as they prepared to defend themselves only for us to get stuck in our tracks. We were caught in a statement by lead ninja and one of them just had to be...

"Kakashi..." Said Zabuza as we both stared in shock at the man.

❄️3rd POV❄️

"I knew we would have to fight, but I never imaged it would be against you, Kakashi" Zabuza states as his eyes locked onto the Copy Cat Ninja as he remembered the Battle at the bridge.

"That day on the bridge, you were supposed to finish me off and send me to hell" Zabuza said as both their 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 isn't that right Kakashi" he 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" Kakashi replied.

"I know that but who casted it?" Zabuza asked.

"The Akatsuki, they brought you back from the world of the Dead." said Kakashi.

"Wait does he know him?" Asked one of the Ninjas behind Kakashi.

"Zabuza... Haku..." Said the pink haired girl. Zabuza and Haku looked at the girl as they began to remember her being at the Battle of the bridge.

"Oh... You've matured. Kakashi's Kunoichi." Zabuy said. "How is that kid? He asked as Haku's and Sakura's eyes widen.

"Huh? Uh huh..." Is the only response the girl gave.

Haku can be seen lost in thought as he thinks about the boy from back then, Naruto...

"We lost because of him" Zabuza said as Haku looked at him. "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 started calling him the miraculous hero now." Haku visibly paused. "Thanks to you both, Naruto was able to find his Ninja Way. He has 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 warm gentle smile. He looked at Kakashi and said, "Then he will become even stronger".

Zabuza and Haku then can no be seen struggling as they clutch themselves in pain. The user of the Reanimation Jutsu, Kabuto, is now trying to take full control over the reanimated ninjas.

"Kakashi... Stop us..." Was all that Zabuza can mumble out as he felt a burning pain in his chest. His chakra had begun leaking out. His demonic aura and Haku's snowy white aura began to be seen visible to the enemy Ninjas. With the last of his strength he had one final look at the copycat ninja and blacked out.

*Time Skip*

❄️Zabuza's POV❄️

I saw the whole thing...I saw myself and Haku being forced to kill off the Ally Shinobi forces.

I saw myself reanimating the former Seven Deadly Ninja Swordsmens...

And yet, I couldn't do anything...

I then saw Kakashi finally taking me down as he wrapped a sealing cloth around my boy.

Heh, I gotta hand it to Kakashi. For once I am glad that he had stopped us from causing to much trouble.

Hopefully Haku can now go and ascend to heaven as this demon is busy getting punished for the sins be had committed.

Just then my vision all of a sudden turned black. My eyes reopen and as I looked around my surroundings it was all bright with yellow and white. Besides me was none other than...

"Haku.." I spoke as I stared at my.. at my...

....

....

My-

"Master Zabuza!" Said an excited Haku as he cut me off from my thinking. "Master Zabuza do you have any idea where we are?" He asked.

"I don't know" is all I can reply. I am glad you are safe Haku...

"I can answer you question young man" said a voice from behind.

I immediately spin kicked the person behind me, only for it to be grabbed by the man before me.

As I looked at the man in front of me who was smiling, I the noticed who it was, I had only read about him in legends...

The Sage of Six Paths...

I just tried to kill The fucking Sage Of Six Paths...

Fuck...

As I stood there in shock seeing at what I just done, I immediately realized how serious the situation is...

I just tried to kill a fucking God...

Haku!!!

I then got onto my knees and bowed, I ruined Haku's life, I can't just ruin his afterlife just like that.

"Forgive me Lord Safe of Six Paths" I pleaded. Haku looked at me in shock at me bowing in front of him. That shocked then turned into fear as he realized what I just said. This was something I never saw I'm Haku, he stood there petrified.

The Sage also had a surprised look for some odd reason as he stared at me amused.

"Forgive me Lord for carelessly attacking you. It was all my fault! I begged of you to punish me for your hearts contents. All I begged is for you to leave the boy next to me alone" I pleaded.

"Master Zabuza..." Said an astonished Haku.

As we stood there in silence in front of the presence of a god, the next thing we heard was a chuckle coming from the Sage as I gulped.

"Call me Hagoromo" he said with a smile. Me and Haku just stood there in shock. Did a God just let us call him as equals?

"You don't have to fear Zabuza Momochi, Demon of the Mist and Haku Yuki of the Ice Style. You are not here to be punished" he said.

"I have an offer for you both" he said. Me and Haku looked at each other in shock. A god has an offer for us?

"I know the ruff life you both had have. Haku you had been forced to live in the streets for years after your father and the villagers murdered your mother. You never really had a childhood huh?" he said as Haku tensed up remembering those events. "And you Zabuza, you realized your mistakes in the end of your life and you regreted your actions. You wished to undo them but the past can't be changed" he stated.

"I am giving you a chance to be teleported to another world. A world were your previous actions don't mean anything." He said.

Me and Haku's eyes widen seeing that Lard Hagoromo, the Sage of Six Paths, is using his power to take us to another world just for us to have a another chance in life.

"The world you will be going to if you accept my offer, is quite different than here. If you accept you will already have some of their knowledge be implanted into your mind as well as the money you earned from your previous life as a Rouge Nin will be transferred into the worlds currency. You can choose to do with what ever you want with your life, a doctor, a solider, a hero, villain, vigilante. You can even still take on the mask of ninga in anyway. I don't even care weather you kill in your new life or not" he said.

"Hero? Villain? What do you mean my that Hagoromo-sama?" Asked Haku.

"You will understand once you go to the next world. But what I will say is that a different form of power exist in that world but not in the form of Chakra or Jutsu. You will still have the ability of using your chakra and Jutsu, but I will hand you a little gift for your journey" said the Sage.

A gift for us... The god of this world wants to give us two a gift...

"I don't think I can accept this" I said. The Sage looked at me in curiosity as Haku stared in shock. "I don't deserve to go into the other world. I had ruined a young boy with out ever realizing it until it was to late. I shouldn't go for all the sins I had forced apon him, he deserves it more than I, he..." I was cut off by the Sage as he began to speak

"But before that, Zabuza I have a question for you. What is Haku to you?" He said. I just stood there thinking about my answers. Haku looked confused as well. He looked at me then back at Hagoromo and bluntly said,

"I am Master Zabuza's tool". I held my head down in shame. Did I really failed you so much Haku that you only see yourself as as object.

"Hmm I see" said the Sage as he had his hand under his chin. "Well then as his tool you shall-"

"No" I bluntly said. I began sweating bullets. I just cut off a damn fucking God.

"Pardon?" Asked the Sage. Haku looked at me shock but with a hint of curiosity, wondering what I was even thinking.

"Haku is not my tool, he no longer is" I said. I turned around and saw Haku looked at me in disbelief. He soon began to cry.

"Master Zabuza I don't understand? What did I do wrong? Did I fail you in some way that I just had to be thrown. Am I really that much of a failure that I am in no good use to you!?!" He cried breaking.

"Shut Up!" I shouted. I then stood straight and walked up towards the Sage as he gave me a serious look.

"Haku is not my tool. He's... He's..."

"He's what?" Said the Sage as he stared at me.

"He's like my son..." I said. Haku looked at me in shocked his tears of sorrow were then mixes with emotions. The Sage then began to raise his hand. I was then expecting for Hagoromo to unleash his wrath upon me on. I no longer have any regrets. I am proud that I am able to say this in front of you Haku...

"Then as a father, be there for your son" he said as he placed his hand on my shoulder.

"My Lord... You are to kind" I cried as I began to hug Haku.

"Very well I guess you both are ready with an answer am I right?" Said the Sage.

"Yes and we accept your offer" I said as I let go of Haku.

"Splendid now then before I send you there is one other thing I forgot to mentioned, it is just a small condition" Said the sage.

"And what may that be Lord Hagoromo" I said curious on the condition hoping it won't affect Haku for the worse.

"You have to bring someone along with you" he stated with a smile.
