I gasped as I was flashed away. I looked around and took note that I was in the Senju compound before looking into his eyes.

Crimson eyes bore into my blues with a look screaming how worried he is.

"Thanks, Tobirama-sensei." I managed to wheeze out. I was incredibly out of breath and I know I look like shit.

He sighed in relief as he gave a tired look. "You're clothes is torn in multiple places, but there is no breaks in the skin. You either have a resistance in poison or you managed to dodge each senbon." He noted.

"Mist. Bookcase. Dodged. Sliced. Maneuvered around. Taijutsu with kenjutsu. Earth infused attacks. Kill slice. Boil release and lava release. Scroll." I reported.

His eyes narrowed as he understood why I used the scroll. I was clearly low on chakra from having to not only use my sensory ability, but to add chakra to my eyes and feet to keep up. The amount of control to accomplish what I did while being as young as I am is exhausting. My child body not able to keep up no matter how much stamina training I do.

Soon after another flash appeared and I was face to face with dad who has a worried look in his eyes and an extra pair of clothes in hand.

"There's a guest bathroom you can use around the corner on the left." Tobirama-sensei pointed to a corner in the room that leads into a hallway.

I nodded my head and stood up on shaky legs. They wobbled as Tobirama-sensei held my arm as to keep me steady while I found my footing.

The adrenaline leaving behind a numbing sensation that I struggled to push through. As soon as I did, he let go and dad handed me the clothes. Right when I rounded the corner, I took note on the two conversing most likely on how they got in and what to do about it.

I entered the bathroom and locked the door. Inside was a rather large bath and a shower next to it. I put my clothes on the hangar and turned the shower on.

As it was heating I quickly took my torn and tattered clothes off and starting with my jacket and shirt followed by my shoes and socks. I then looked in the mirror and took note of the signs of chakra exhaustion setting in under my eyes.

Rubbing my eyes I got into the shower and quickly cleaned myself off before getting out and seeing my torn clothes gone.

I then grabbed the new clothes changing into them which consisted of a black pair of cargo pants with a forest green t shirt and my black ninja shoes. I pulled my hair into a ponytail and my forehead protector on my forehead tying it tight.

I walked out and back into the room I was flashed into to find Tsunade there waiting for me. Next to her is a bottle of chakra pills.

I was told I should take it easy for the rest of the day, but I really felt the need to at least read up on more wind jutsu. At least get an idea set and work on how to go about creating my own jutsu.

With that mind set in play, I wrote a note to dad and explained I was going meet up with Asuma for advice.

On the way there I felt a couple of familiar signatures following me and sniffed the air. Frozen water. I gasped. Ice.

Haku!

Smiling, I also took note of the metallic smell and realized that the demon of the mist and Haku were given the job of protecting me from the shadows.

Now you're probably wondering why I'm so excited to know Haku is following and not so much Zabuza. It's simple really. Haku knows how to really roast people.

Flashback.

Inari, Haku, Tazuna and my team were all in Tazuna's place. Some were at the kitchen table eating others, such as myself, were doing pushups or some sort of training.
