Well today was the last day of Tazuna's bridge building. He would finish it and our job would be done. I knew this wouldn't be a easy day and I was right when we got to the job sight and all his workers were knocked out. The fog rolled in and I drawed out my weapon. "Time for round two Zabuza. This time I'm serious." I heard a light chuckle as Zabuza and his apprentice appeared. Him and the group have a conversation and before I know it Sasuke is fighting his apprentice, Haku I think was his name. Sakura was guarding Tazuna and Kakashi was battling Zabuza. "Don't forget about me baka!" I said nearly landing a hit on Zabuza and forcing him back. From the side I saw Haku was being pushed back too. Kakashi went and bragged on the team which was sweet but not smart as it seemed to motivate Him and Haku to get serious. Now Sasuke was trapped in some icy cage while Zabuza battled Kakashi and I. With a big slash he sent Kakashi flying. I was able to catch him before he impacted with the ground. Idiot! Just recovering from overusing his fancy eye trick and he thinks he can take Zabuza on like he's not phased. Oh well. I wanted to fight Moo baka one on one anyway. I ran at Zabuza in a direct attack. Just before I got in range I changed direction an struck at his flank. He reacted quickly though stopping me from landing a direct hit but I still grazed his side. "Not bad little girl. But I hope that's not all you have. Those fancy maneuvers won't work forever." I chuckled  "I got more tricks were that came from. I ran at him and aimed a kick at his kidney. He countered by blocking my attack. I had planned this though as I used the blade to propel into the air. While in the air I threw several kunai at him which he deflected.  Got him. He had no idea what I had done. Got you now! Release. The kunai around him formed a trap as the tags on the Kunai exploded shooting wires that bound him to the ground. It was at that time I heard a shout from Naruto who had just showed up and a scream from Sakura.

Naruto

"You killed him!" I yelled. Sasuke laid in front of me dead still. "Don't worry Naruto. He's only unconscious. I didn't aim to kill." I was confused. Why wouldn't  he kill us? Were enemies. He slowly removed his mask to reveal the boy I met in the forest. Haku. "We just had to make this fight look real till our client showed  his true colors." So their not our enemies? Why.

"Looks like the guest of honor has arrived Zabuza." I said as Gato and his hired thugs came into view. "Seems like you weren't kidding little girl. Well it seems since my employer has no intention of paying us that we have no reason to fight anymore." I smiled as my wires released Zabuza. The rest was all him as he cut down Gato and his thugs. As Haku helped Heal Sasuke, Kakashi woke up a bit  dizzy headed. "Am I dead or is Zabuza helping us?" As the two headed off away from us I decided to speak. "I may have given him some useful info on how his employer wanted him dead and he may have sided with us to pay him back." He looked at me in disbelief as the team came over to us, Naruto carrying Sasuke on his back. All's well that ends well. I just know though I'll have to fill him in later.
