Crystal Clear Diamonds (A Naruto fanfiction)

Chapter 15 : 10 Tails and Gatou

Stepping in, I close the door behind me. "Ha... Haku? I'm back... Sorry I took so long!! Haha!" I laughed nervously. "Shh..." He whispered, waving a hand ushering me to come closer. "Oh Haku!! I learnt how to control the flying thingy!!" I chirped brightly in the dull room. Haku gave me a warm smile. My heart released its own sigh of relief. Haku wasn't angry.Actually, I haven't seen him angry before...

I walked closer and saw that Zabuza was sleeping. "How long would he be like this?" I asked softly. "About a week or so more. Why?" He replied, back with a question. "Because I want to know how much time I have left to train..." I smiled to myself, "and I want you to help me!" Haku looked at me and I could see the question in his eyes. "Right, I'll need you to help me train because thats faster. Training by myself proves a hassel, you know? It takes longer and I still need to think about my plan. I've got nothing!!" I explained and complained at the same time. He nodded, somewhat understanding what I meant.

After a 5minute silence I cleared my throat,"ErHem... I meant now..." He stood up and smiled nervously,"Oh thats fine with me..." He said softly. Once outside, I asked him, "Dude, you sure your not a girl?" I asked solemnly. Sorry!! I HAD to ask! I mean, LOOK at him! He looks like he could be a Chick! No wonder Naruto thought he was a chick! Wait... I narrowed my eyes at Haku, "Did you go for an operation or something when you were younger?!" I asked him. Obviously I knew the answer to that and I did know about his childhood but still... I was bored...

A faint blush crept onto Haku's cheeks,"N..No! Nothing like that... ..." He said quickly making me laugh. Like, have you SEEN Haku get flustered in the Anime? No! It was HILARIOUS! "Oh... Ah..ah..ahhahahahahah!! I'm... ahaha... so... sorry Haku-Sensei!!" I Stiffled my laughter. Haku smiled and teased, "I guess I'm really pretty then, arent I, Ashley-Sama?" He chuckled as we walked over to the training grounds where I spotted 2 huge boulders. "Uhm... what are those doing here?" I ask him curiously,"They weren't here yesterday..." Haku looked at one of the rocks before I noticed his right hand had a faint blue outline. He proceeded to punch the boulder with some strength. I doubt thats his full potential.

I heard a loud crack and saw lines spead over that side of the boulder. "OHMYGAWD HAKU!!!" I gasped,"That was a hard punch!!" He smiled and told me to try. "Try adding Chakra to your hands and then skim your hand over the boulder. I'd like to see what happens." He told me gently, yet firmly. I nodded and did as I was told. I concentrated my chakra to my hands. I gradually skimmed my hands over the rock thinking I could put a crack through it. After I finished, I glanced at my beautiful lines and- wait, WHAT?! There were no lines on the rock except the place where I began. "Good try Ashley-Sama but I guess you weren't as great as I thought..." Haku mused quietly but loud enough for me to hear. I grit my teeth. Telling me I'm NOT as great as he THOUGHT?! I let down his expectations of me... I felt my blood boil and ... everything went black...

WHAT?!?!

but I didn't feel my body fall! I was still mentally conscious so i could feel myself moving. But... not the 'falling' action i expected. My body felt like it was moving as though I hadn't blacked out at all. Almost like I was still controlling it. I just felt like a soul trapped in a moving heavy... container. Suddenly my body moved into a position that felt like I was punching something.

Out of nowhere, I saw light as if someone shone a torch in my eyes. After I blinked, I saw tiny pieces of rock falling from the sky  in front of me. The stone was not in front of me anymore. I blinked more and finally found my voice, " Haku, what just happened?" I turned to face Haku, but instead I fell. Haku rushed over to me and ignored my question, I touched my arm but that was a bad idea. "OW!!" I yelped, pulling my arm away. I looked down to see what injury was so painful but all I saw was my pale skin. Yellow chakra outlined my skin and I felt strong winds behind me. I  motioned for Haku to stop as a wave of pain flooded into my head.
