The mist slowly enveloped the group as Kakashi stared toward his front. "Hidden mist jutsu..." Kakashi spoke slowly, making sure his team heard him. "Keep your ears open if you can't see anything. Zabuza is known as an expert in silent assassinations developed by the Mist village..." As he explained he raised his kunai, deflecting a kunai that flew towards him through the mist.
"Just protect the Client." Kakashi spoke before the mist thickened, blocking everyone's sight, causing them to barely see a foot in front of them.
Sasuke strained his eyes as he slowly backed up closer to Tazuna. "Naruto." He called out softly, the sound of metal clashing rings out around them.
"Yeah?" Naruto's voice responded.
Sasuke nodded, knowing he's close as he started speaking. "How much chakra do you have left after the battle with the Chunin?" He asked, knowing they didn't have much time to rest and recuperate. He himself only had two thirds of his chakra left since he didn't use much during the fight.
"Heh." He heard Naruto sneer. "I have enough to last me days." Naruto boasted.
"Good. Listen here."
---
Kakashi grunted, stabbing the neck of Zabuza's water clone and swung around, his sharingan glowing red. "It's no use trying to hide from my sight." He spoke, throwing a kunai with a paperbomb attached into the direction he spoke.
*Boom!*
The mist parted ways for but a second before returning, but that one second was all Kakashi needed. Quickly forming a few seals, he rushes forward and slices at Zabuza, who quickly blocked the kunai with his massive sword. "I told you it's no use." Kakashi sneered and flicked his arm, sparks flying as his kunai slid against the blade.
With grit teeth, Zabuza jumps back and runs through hand seals at great speeds, causing his stomach to bloat a bit. "Water Style!" He muttered and the bloat in his stomach moves up to his mouth, causing his cheeks to puff. 'Heavenly weeping jutsu!' He thought and spat a barrage of water senbons at Kakashi.
With wide eyes, Kakashi lifted his kunai in effort to block, but it proved futile as the water needles pierced his body all over, shooting straight through before falling into the lake below them.
"Ugh..." Kakashi grunted and looked down at his body.
Zabuza smirked at the sight, but that quickly changed into shock as Kakashi's body melted, turning into water before splashing to the ground. 'Shit!' He cursed, turning around, his eyes scanning his surroundings. 'He copied my jutsu...'
Kakashi lurked behind him, inspecting the ninja's movements as he thought about his next move.
"Fuck this!" Zabuza yelled out and swung his blade with every muscle in his body.
*Fwoooosh!*
The mist disperses and he stops inputting chakra into it, causing it to fade away. "There you are." He smirks and stares at Kakashi's crouched figure.
"Tsk." Clicking his tongue, Kakashi jumped back into the air as he weaved through hand signs. Lifting his right hand up to his mouth, he spits out a small wave of water at Zabuza, who simply swung his blade at it.
"Haha!" He laughed out loud, mocking Kakashi. "This is all the great Kakashi of the sharingan can do? a C-rank Water wave?!" As he spoke, he raised his arms. "All you accomplished was washing my clothes."
"I know." Kakashi's voice cut through his mocking before he appeared behind Zabuza.
*Cheeeee!*
Around his hand, blue lightning explodes to light, creating a high pitched sound. "Chidori!" Kakashi announced and stabbed at Zabuza.
With quick movements, Zabuza leaned his body to the side, barely dodging a killing blow, but Kakashi's hand still grazed his shoulder.
*Zip!*
The lightning travels from Kakashi's hand onto Zabuza's wet body. 'So that's what he was doing!' Zabuza thought, feeling his muscles spasm at the current traveling through it.
"It's over." Kakashi spoke, seizing the opportunity of Zabuza's tightened muscles and stabs a kunai into the ninja's face.
"You're right." Zabuza's voice came from behind Kakashi, but before Kakashi could do anything, he felt pain shoot through his right shoulder.
Glancing down, Kakashi saw the tip of a kunai poking out of his shoulder. Lifting his head, he turned it to the side, his eyes strained to see Zabuza standing directly behind him, holding the half-tiger seal.
"Water prison Jutsu." Zabuza spoke and the water below them raised, forming a sphere around Kakashi.
---
"Shit!" Sasuke cursed loudly and turned to Naruto. "Change of plans." He said and turned back to where Zabuza stood, holding Kakashi captive. Reaching out his hand towards Sakura, the girl placed a large shuriken within his hand.
Nodding, he placed his foot back, and moved his right hand, holding the shuriken, to his back, stretched out. "Oi!" He yelled out, grabbing both Jonins' attention as they looked over.
"Hah." Zabuza scoffed. "One hell of a sneak attack." He spoke to Kakashi as they both watched Sasuke step forward and sling the shuriken towards them.
---
Releasing the shuriken, Sasuke instantly dug into his back pouch and took out some kunai, throwing it right after. Next to him, Naruto did the same as he yelled.
"Ninja super supply barrage!" Naruto announced loudly, making sure the enemy heard his perfect naming.
Zabuza looked at the big shuriken spinning towards him lazily and stretched his free arm forward, catching the shuriken through the hole in the middle. "You're tea-" His words stop as his eyes snap open. Jumping up, he dodged another big shuriken that flew right under the first one, a bit behind, blocking it from his view.
Landing on the water, he used the shuriken in his hand to block the barrage of kunai that followed. "Haah..." He let out a breath and turned to Kakashi. "I'll admit tha-!"
*Poof!*
Zabuza turned his head back, catching a glimpse of Naruto appearing in place of the second shuriken. "What?!"
"Ha!" Naruto let out, smirking as he flung a kunai, aiming at Zabuza's face, but the Mist nin only tilted his head slightly. Spotting his movements, Naruto's grin grew wilder as he lifted his right hand towards his face and formed the half tiger seal. "Kai!"
---- a Few minutes ago ----
Sasuke started explaining the plan. "He's currently occupied with Kakashi, but things won't last long like this." He said grimly. "Zabuza mainly uses water jutsus, and he's currently in a place surrounded by water, so we need to help Kakashi out."
Naruto nodded, his voice traveling through the thick mist, sounding excited. "Yeah!" He yelled out. "But... We can't walk on water like they do?" He speaks his deduction, but Sasuke only smiled.
"Leave a clone next to me and transform into a huge shuriken. Like the one we brought." Sasuke started explaining. "I'll throw you over there so you can distract Zabuza for a second. And trust me... a Second will be more than enough."
--- Present. ---
*Boom!*
The paperbomb stuck to the base of the kunai exploded and water splashed and evaporated, sending Naruto flying back, skipping across the lake's surface.
Meanwhile, Zabuza jumped away the second he saw a glance of the bomb, avoiding it's explosion, but in doing so, he moved away from Kakashi, releasing the Water prison. "Fuck!" He cursed and ran towards where Kakashi was, hoping to catch him before he recovered.
*Cheeee!*
"It's too late." Kakashi's voice comes from the mist as a blue light flashed. "Chidori!" he yelled and ran forwards as well.
Not even a second later, the two Jonin clashed in the middle. One, a human sized blade, the other, a hand covered in lightning.
