I tried to concentrate on Haku. However, the tingling in my eyes was making it harder than usual. What's wrong with my eyes? Have I activated my Kekkei Genkei again?
"You seem to be struggling. I can help you get rid of that pain." More senbon came at us; this time, I could see them and dodge most of them.
"I see... You're able to see through my attacks. I guess I will have to keep attacking." I glared at Haku.
"Alright then, give me your best shot!" I shouted at the man.
A barrage of senbon kept coming at us, and in the blink of an eye, Haku got dangerously close. Our eyes met, and before I knew it, I felt this sharp sting in my side. A senbon had found its mark between my ribs, and I couldn't hold back a cry of pain.
"Hikari!"I noticed the others were in the same boat, clutching their injuries. Naruto was in full clone-making mode, while Sasuke and I were doing our best to track Haku's movements. It felt like we were just getting pelted, one senbon after another.
In a fit of frustration, I yanked the senbon out of my side, gritting my teeth, and flung it at the mirror, my anger boiling over.
"You three seem to be getting exhausted. Should we end this?" All of a sudden, the mist got even thicker. My eyes were still hazy from the earlier attacks, making it even harder to keep track of what was going on. Naruto, though, he just kept on pushing himself, pouring out energy like there was no tomorrow. Sasuke, he was super close to nailing Haku with his Fireball Jutsu.
I kept throwing my Ice Barrage at Haku, but he was like a blur, dodging every icy attack. We were all gasping for breath, and me, I just couldn't keep it up anymore. Between the chakra I'd been burning through and the physical exhaustion.
Naruto... Can you do it one more time?" I looked at Naruto. He seemed to be exhausted too. Soon, Naruto was running to get out. Sasuke let out another fireball, and a senbon was thrown at Sasuke. I pushed myself in front of him take most of the senbon. My body feeling extremely numb due to the vital part getting pierced time and time again.
"Why did you get in the way?" I grunted in pain hearing Sasuke question my motives.
"Because it seems like you have a plan and I dont. at least two us need to make it out." I grinned, just then, another set of senbon was thrown directly at Sasuke.
"You need to stay down!" I heard Haku's attack coming, and without a second thought, I jumped in front of it, using my own body as a shield. It hit me, and I winced in pain, but at least Naruto was safe for the moment. It hurt like crazy, and I could feel the cold creeping in, but I couldn't let that stop me.
Naruto wasn't spared either, and I knew I couldn't help both of them. I heard Sakura yelling from outside, her voice filled with concern. Things were getting pretty intense.
"S-Sakura is in trouble. We need to find a way out to help!" I said out loud, senbon sticking out of me. Me and Naruto got up on two feet as I took a little more out of my body. I was holding my stomach in pain because it hurt everywhere and curling up felt better than standing up straight.
"I-- I can keep going." I grunted at the pain I was feeling looking at Naruto, who was determined to get us out; Sasuke looked shocked at Naruto and me, wanting to keep going.
"Light Style: Celestial Comet Barrage." The same lights as the night before began to show.
"Naruto, if you can make more clones, I'll try to get a hit on him." I looked at Haku and then at Naruto, but my demands seemed unheard. Naruto started to run for another exit and got hit by a few more senbon.
