Another mission for John and Kakashi

the group is in the Hokage office just finish briefing Tsunade of the mission "Good job on the mission. everyone can leave except for Kakashi and John i have another mission for you" Tsunade said. Tenten gave John a kiss on the cheek before her and the others left

"what's are mission Tsunade" John asked

"good now for your mission i need you two to head to the land of waves to protect a bridge builder until he's done building a bridge. i don't know why but he personally requested that you be the ones that protect him" Tsunade said before Kakashi and John left the office

John and Kakashi are walking on the bridge in the land of waves "i wonder if it's Tazuna that we will be protecting" John asked

"i don't know but we will be finding out soon" kakashi said. while walking they noticed five guys down on the ground hurt "we need to hurry up" kakashi said as he started to run with John in toe "i hope we aren't late" Kakashi said as it started to get misty " John get ready"

Johnand kakashi are running when they see three figures standing in the mist as they get closer they see that one of them is Tazuna so John and kakashi run up beside him "good to see you made it" Tazuna said

John and Kakashi look over at the two other people one is a guy with bandages covering his face and one the other is Haku from the chunin exam " John i got the with the bandages you get Haku" as soon as those words left kakashis mouth Haku threw several needles towards John who in return threw a few kunai of his own, deflecting them as both weapons flew off and landed on the bridge

Haku brought her hands up in a hand sign. "Shadow clone Jutsu", she called out her technique as several clones appeared next to her, all of them with that same creepy smile on their faces. "Now, we won't go easy on you John they said in unison as they charged him.

John looked between each clone around him. "Six clones." muttered before grinning as the real Haku stood away from the ring of herselves

Haku called out " Now you're surrounded and my speed will take you out easily!". As she finished, her clones jumped towards John at lightning fast speed, only for John to grin as in a flash of his own impressive speed, he brought his hand together for his own seal. "Shadow clone Jutsu", he called out and was covered by puff of smoke. Then, six John burst out of the smoke and each one took a Haku clones by surprise. The water clones burst into water

A surprised look came over Hakus face for a moment before she shivered and smiled even more. Haku charged at John with a kunai and John did the same. as John and Haku weapons met again, both strained to gain the upper, pressing harder against each other they stared face to face. " John your growth for a months time is truly impressive. However, I'm going to win this match, because I have three advantages you don't.", she said lowly as they had reached a tie with their weapons clashed

"And what's that Haku" John asked, truly curious as she smiled.

"Well, first of all, there is the we are surrounded by water. Second, I have one of your hands occupied, leaving you with only one. and Third I can do this!" Haku said as she brought her own free hand up and she began to do one handed seals... something John had never seen anyone, not even his Kakashi do before.

" John you now see what i can do" she said, ending the sequence as the water around them sprung to life and jumped into the air. hundreds of various sized icicles that floated in mid air."Secret Jutsu: A Thousand Needles of Death", Haku whispered, making John stop from looking at them around him before realizing he was in trouble. Suddenly the needles rained down at once and a huge cloud of smoke was kicked up as it ended the attack.

Haku stared as the smoke began to settle. She was sure her attack connected, Finally, the smoke died down for Haku to see John had replaced himself with a log, which was like a pin cushion at the moment with the number of ice cicles embedded into it.

"he dodged it" Haku whispered in shock before she spun just in time to miss being hit by John flying kick which would have hit her in the head if it had connected. Haku quickly cleared herself from John reach as he tried to land a few punches on her.

"You are truly strong! Not only that but you survived a jutsu very few have before you, but I came here to show my village is strong! And I can't have distractions like you!", Haku yelled as she brought her hands up in a new handsign.

"What a pity!", Haku muttered as she focused and John once again saw the water around him moving and the ice embedded in the log fly up to join the gathering liquid until it took shape. What it turned into was surprising, a dome of twenty one ice mirrors hanging in the air around John Now, this was something he definitely hadn't expected, but then again, Haku is full of surprises. wonder why she didn't use any of these moves against Choji in the exam

John I'm sorry it's going to end so quickly, but this is the end for you!", Haku said as she walked towards him from outside the dome. "This is my ultimate technique. No one has survived it once they were trapped in this, my Secret Jutsu: Demonic Ice Mirrors", Haku stated as she looked at him before walking to a mirror, and then to John was shocked she walked INTO the ice mirror, her reflection in all of them as they stared at John

"And what's to stop me from just walking out of here?" John asked as he took a step forward, only to have a kunai thrown at him. John jumps out of the way of the kunai

"Because I can attack in here, and to me, my speed is increased tenfold. You look like you're standing still when I move out of these. You're trapped!", Haku said with a grin. "Now, try to last a while before you give out"

"oh is that so Haku how about i show you something that i learned the last time i was here" John said as the mirrors starts to break. outside of the mirrors John has a clone using chidori

"what's happening. why are the mirrors disappearing" Haku asks before jumping out of the last mirror as it gets destroyed. Haku turns her head to see what destroyed them to see a clon of John "i see you hade a clone outside the mirrors to destroy them" while Haku wasn't looking John charged at her with a kunai but Haku stops him "sorry John change of plan" she said making handsigns before disappearing

as John looks around to find where Haku went. he sees her standing between Kakashi and the guy with bandages. with Kakashis hand on her chest "she threw herself in front of my attack. she saved your life at the cost of her own" the guy in the bandages swings at kakashi. but kakashi jumps out of the way and lays down Haku

the guy charges at Kakashi but Kakashi jumps out of the way of the guy with bandages and lands behind him "well so this is how it ends huh" a short man with a cane said before kakashi stabbed the guy with the bandages making him drop his sword "he did quite a job on you didn't he Zabuza. i must say i'm disappointed" the short man said with people behind him

"Gato what is this. i don't understand. why are you here" Zabuza said

"well you see theres been a slight change of plan. according to the new plan you die right here on this bridge Zabuza" Gato said

"well kakashi it would seem are fight is at a end now that i don't work for Gato anymore. and Tazuna is safe" Zabuza said

"yeah you'r right" kakashi said

"boy throw me your kunai" Zabuza said and John threw him the kunai. Zabuza catches the kunai inhis mouth before he charges at Gato and the people behind him. Gato runs behind the people and Zabuza takes a few of them down

a minute later Zabuza slowly comes walking out of the people with spears in his back and collapses on the ground "we are not going to leave here empty handed now that Gato is gone so we are going to attack the village and see what they got" one of the people in the the giant group of people

"i don't think so" John said before he made a hundred clones of himself making the giant group of people run away

Kakashi and John are standing over Zabuza "before i die i want you boy to take my sword" Zabuza said

"i don't mean question your decision but why do want me to have it" John asked but didn't get a answer from Zabuza

"i think he has passed on John. go grab the sword he gave you and lets go back to the village" Kakashi said
