Naruto Fan Fiction ❯ My Life as Sakura Haruno ❯ Chapter 5
[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]
I am... bored! Ya wanna know why? Well, it's because all of us were in a boat including the bridge builder. The motor was turned off and it was absolutely silent. IT WAS DRIVING ME INSANE!! "Fish don't fry in the kitchen! Beans don't burn on the grill!" I sang. "Took a whole lot of trying... just to get up that hill. Now we're up in the big leagues... getting our turn at bat! As long as we live, it's you and me baby. There ain't nothing wrong with that!"
"Sakura!" Kakashi voice got my attention. "You do realize we are trying to be quiet, right?" I laughed nervous.... How could I forget?
"Sorry, it's just... I'm really bored and y'all already know I like to sing randomly," I said.
"We should be able to see the bridge soon," the person operating the boat said. "If we move along the side of the bridge, we'll be at the Country of the wave." Yeah, I think I see it!
It was bigger than I expected and it's not even completed. "Whoa! It's huge!" Naruto suddenly shouted.
"Quiet! I told you no noise! Why do you think we're traveling like this, huh?" boat person said... yeah, I really didn't know his name; or maybe I just didn't pay attention when he mentioned it. "Cutting off the engine and rowing, moving through the dense fog... so they don't see us!" Naruto covered his mouth and had a weird look on his face. They...? Who's they...?
"Mr. Tazuna...? Before we reach the shore, I have to ask you something," Kakashi said in a calm voice.
"I wonder what he's talking about," I thought paying attention to Kakashi.
"The men that were after you, I need to know why," he finished. Oh that, I think I already know what he's talking about. So, I really don't have to listen to their conversation. But what should I do in the mean time?
"OH!! I can sing silently!" I thought grinning. "Now what should I sing?"
The Assassin of the Mist!

"SAKURA!" someone's voice got my attention; I looked to see that everyone was out of the boat and on land, Sasuke looked a little angry. "Quit humming to yourself and get out of the boat!" Man, Sasuke is such a pain in my neck!
"Up yours, Sasuke!" I said climbing out of the boat. "It isn't my fault I got distracted!" But then I thought... "Wait a minute... yeah it was...."
Once I got out of the boat and started looking around; I noticed that everything seemed to be a lot clearer than before. "Hey, now that I think about it... Genin are like teen titans, with their super powers and what not!"
"Okay, take me to my home and I mean get me there in one piece!" bridge builder said.
"Right," Kakashi said and then we all began to walk in a certain direction.
"Since the first ninja that they sent were chunin then... they're likely to send someone stronger this time," I thought walking behind Naruto and Sasuke. "I should keep my guard up just in case." Suddenly Naruto ran ahead of us and started looking around making all of us stop in our tracks.
He took out a kunai and threw it yelling something about 'Over there!' Now what exactly did he see? I noticed that everyone froze when Naruto did this; a couple of seconds went by and then Naruto stood up straight. "It was just a mouse," he said making my eye twitch.
"Mouse? Naruto, don't do that if you aren't completely sure!" I yelled.
"Naruto, those are kunai knife... they're dangerous!" Kakashi scolded.
"HEY, YOU DWARF! DON'T SCARE US!" bridge builder yelled.
"I see someone hiding over there!" Naruto said. "No, is he over there?.... There!" Naruto threw another kunai knife.
"Naruto stop that!" I yelled; it was getting a little annoying.
"But I really did sense someone," Naruto whined.
"You better not be lying!" I yelled. I saw Kakashi go through the bushes that Naruto had threw his kunai into. I went by Kakashi to see what he was looking at and saw a white bunny, the kunai knife lodged over it's head; it looked as if the poor bunny fainted from shock!
I popped Naruto upside the head in anger! "Ah... Sakura-chan! What was that for?" Naruto asked/whined.
Inner Mayu: Never attack an animal while an animal lover is around!
"Look what you did, idiot!" I yelled pointing at the bunny. Naruto looked to where I was pointing and then had a guilty look on his face.
"A rabbit!" he said going over to the poor animal; he picked it up and held it close to his face. "Oh, I'm sorry, little rabbit! I'm so sorry!"
"All this fuss over a rodent...." bridge builder said.
"Put the rabbit down, Naruto!" I said. "Release the poor thing!"
I suddenly felt something... and it wasn't a good thing! "Look out!" Kakashi called to us; I quickly followed his instructions and dived to the ground. When I got up, I saw everyone else had also gotten up. I then saw a man standing on some kinda giant weapon that was lodged into a tree... he looked familiar. My eyes widen in shock as I realized who this was.
"Zabuza...!" I thought. "He's a lot more creepy in person."
Inner Mayu: AHHHH! MY POOR VIRGIN EYES! Scar me for life, why don't 'cha? Put a shirt on!
"Well, well, if it isn't Zabuza Momochi, the exiled ninja of the Hidden Village of Mist," Kakashi said walking towards the tree.
"Momochi...? What kinda name is that?" I thought. "Sounds like that name from that guy that's from Fruits Basket... or was it Momoji.... I forget!" I shook my head and scolded myself. "I have to keep my head in the game! This is no time to be thinking of such nonsense!"
"You're in the way. Get back," Kakashi said stopping Naruto from making a foolish mistake, Naruto was about to charge at Zabuza.
"But why...?" Naruto asked.
"He is not like those other ninja," Kakashi answered. "He's in a whole other league."
"Scaring me now!" I thought nervously. I mean sure, I kicked a jounin but, I'm pretty sure that Kakashi let me! And with this guy... that ain't happening.
"I'm guessing you are Kakashi the Sharingan user," Zabuza said. I noticed that Sasuke looked at Kakashi in surprise. Oh that's right, Sasuke's clan was the only one who pocessed the Sharingan.
"He's probably thinking how could he use the Sharingan," I thought.
"I'm sorry but, you have to let me take the old geezer," Zabuza said.
"Everyone, form the swastika formation!" Kakashi ordered. "Protect Tazuna-san and do not join the battle."
"Uh.... what the heck is a swastinka? It sounds like it smells!" I thought.
"I taught you teamwork, now it's time to use it!" Kakashi finished; I saw him lifting up his forehead protector.
"He's going to reveal his left eye!" I thought as I watched Kakashi's eye open slowly.
"I'm ready!" he said.
"Cool...." was the only thing I could mutter.
"I'm honored that I can see the Sharingan that I've heard about," Zabuza said.
"You guys have been saying Sharingan, but what is it?" Naruto asked.
"Sharingan... The eye creates it, and it is the power that the pupil generates," Sasuke explained. "The user of this visual jutsu or doujutso can instantly see and comprehend any genjutsu, taijutsu, and ninjutsu, and cancel their effects. Sharingan is one of the types of eyes that those doujutsu users possess. But that's the only ability the Sharingan possesses."
"You got it right boy," Zabuza said. "But you only scratched the surface. The Sharingan can analyze the opponents technique and then copy it to the smallest detail." I noticed that it suddenly got really foggy; I could hardly see through it.
"It's so thick I might cut it!" I thought.
"When I was in the Hidden Village of Mist's assassination squad... your information was listed in the bingo book I carried asking for your capture," Zabuza said.
"Well, isn't he studious!" I thought sarcastically. "Why do all the bad guys feel the need to talk before they kill somebody?"
"It also noted this... The man who copied more than 1,000 techniques, Kakashi the copy ninja," Zabuza continued.
"WOW!" Naruto said and Sasuke just glared... well, at least I think he glared. I could heardly see his face!
"Let's cut the chit-chat here," Zabuza said gaining my attention. Haha... let's not! Please keep talking, I am not ready for this! "I have to kill that geezer right away." That was our cue to jump in front of the bridge builder; Naruto on one side, me on the other and Sasuke in front; we all had a kunai knife in front of us. "But, Kakashi, it seems I have to defeat you first." Zabuza suddenly disappeared giant weapon and all! I saw him reappear in the water... actually he was standing on the water.
"Wait a minute... I don't remember water being there!" I thought. "CHEATER!" Sorry, I have a habit of shouting that out; I'm just glad I didn't say that out loud!
"He's there!" Naruto said.
"And those things on his arms are hideous!" I whispered mostly to myself but Sasuke somehow managed to hear me.
"Sakura...! This is no time for that!" he yelled/ hissed.
"What? They are!" I retorted softly. "And they don't match either. Spots and strips? Where is the fashion police when you need 'em!"
All of a sudden, Zabuza disappeared from my sight. "Oh crap! He's come to get me for my rude remark!" I thought. "I'll never do it again! Just please don't kill me!"
Inner Mayu: You know you lyin' girl!
"Yes... yes, I am."
"He disappeared!" Naruto said as Kakashi walked in front of us.
"K-Kakashi-sensei...?" oh man, now my voice is cracked; I didn't realize I was scared.
"He'll try to eliminate me first, but..." Kakashi said.
"But...?" I said.
"Zabuza Momochi, he was in the Hidden Village ANBU, and was know for his 'silent killing' techniques," Kakashi continued.
"S-Silent...? Naruto asked.
"As the name suggests, it happens in an instant without sound or warning of any kind," Kakashi explained. "It's so fast, you pass from this life without realizing what's happened. The Sharingan can not fully neutralize it, so don't lower your guard."
"Easy for him to say!" I thought frowning.
"Well, if we fail we only lose our lives," Kakashi said.
Inner Mayu: What do you mean 'only lose our lives?' I still didn't get to kiss Gaara!
"Issues... Issues!" I thought; I was probably sweat dropping because of my other half.
"The mist is getting thicker and thicker!" Naruto stated.
"The land of waves is surrounded by ocean, the swirling mist is ever present," bridge builder said.
"Oh-no! It's so bad that I can't see Kakashi-sensei anymore!" I said.
"What!" Sasuke said.
"Oh-no! It's so bad that I can't see Kakashi-sensei anymore!" I repeated.
"I heard you the first time!" Sasuke said.
"I thought you were asking!" I retorted.
"Quiet you two!" bridge builder said.
"Eight points," Zabuza's creepy voice filled my ears.
"Oh no, now he thinks this is 'Grand Theft Auto!' We goin' die!" I thought. "No! No! No! It can not end like this!"
"The larynx, spine, lungs, liver, jugular, vein, collarbone, kidney, and heart," Zabuza continued. Ooooh, he was just naming points that are left opened to attack! Not how many point we were worth! I better not be only worth no eight points! Wait a minute....
Inner Mayu: WE `BOUT TA DIE CLITESS!
"Now, which vital organ do you want to be struck at?" Zabuza asked making me gulp.
"Uh... I don't suppose none of them is an answer?" I asked.
"NO!"
"S-S-Sorry I asked!" I stuttered. Suddenly I could feel a strong wind picking up blowing away the fog. I saw Kakashi again... "I'm so glad!"
I saw Sasuke grab his kunai with both hands and was slowly pointing the tip towards his stomach. "Sasuke! What the hell are you doing?" I yelled smacking him upside the head. "Are you that insane?"
"Sasuke! Don't worry. I'll protect the three of you with my life," Kakashi said. "I won't let anyone on my team die."
"See? We have nothing to worry about! So don't go suidsidal on us!" I said.
"I would be so sure," Zabuza said... and he sounded close; right behind me! "It's over!"
Instinctively jumped out of the way when I saw Kakashi move towards us. When I looked back I saw that Kakashi had stabbed a kunai knife into Zabuza! But, it wasn't blood pouring from him... it was water. "Water clone?" I thought in alarm as another Zabuza appeared behind Kakashi.
"Sensei! Behind you!" Naruto shouted but it was too late, before Kakashi even fully turned around Zabuza cut him in half.
Inner Mayu: Ahhh! My heart! My beating heart has stopped!
But Kakashi's body soon turned into water! Yes, that means Kakashi is still alive and kicking!
Zabuza looked surprised when he realized that it was just the water clone jutsu. I saw Kakashi hold a kunai knife at Zabuza's thought. "Don't move," he said. "This is the end!"
"Wow... he really is cool!" I thought. "He copied Zabuza's technique even in fog as thick as this!"
*****************************
OH NO!! It's not the end! Kakashi actually fell into creepy guy's trap! Naruto's being a wimp, Sasuke's trying to fight and I'm just standing there like... like... like I'm Sakura or something! Well, no more! I will do my best with this fight. I refuse to stand by and be just like Sakura! But what's this? Naruto agrees? Oh, thank you Naruto! Let's show him the power of teamwork! Oh and you two Sasuke! Bring it on ya eye brow less freak!
NEXT TIME:
The Oath of Pain!
Nothing is gonna stop us! WE'RE THE TEEN TITANS BABY! -ahem- Sorry, got a little carried away....The Oath of Pain!
