Darkness Falls

Chapter 11

 Naruto was livid.

He couldn't believe what he had just witnessed. One moment, Sasuke was in the ice dome while Sakura protected the client, the next both had switched places. Now Sakura was lying prone inside the dome of ice mirrors, with countless senbons sticking out of her body. Meanwhile, he could see the smug look on the last Uchiha's face.

A swirl of black and dark red energy surrounded his body as his canines become more elongated. His finger nails turning more claw like, as they lengthened. Meanwhile, the whisker marks that defined his cheeks became more prominent, while his eyes became yellow and his pupils became slits. His coat bellowing from the gusts of wind his power was generating around his body.

The enraged hanyou wasted no time, as he jumped into the shadow below him, and came out from Tazuna's shadow, his fist cocked back. Landing a crushing blow onto the raven haired emo's head, causing the boys head to bounce off the concrete, knocking him completely unconcious. Still, it wasn't enough for Naruto. He wanted the Uchiha to scream in agony and bleed. He wanted to slake the ground wet with the emo's blood.

'Naruto-kun, you need to calm down!' Ahri shouted from the back of his mind. As much as she wanted to see the arrogant prick get what he deserved, she knew it would only cause her host more problems then it was worth right now. 'Leave a shadow clone or something and go check on Sakura-chan!'

Naruto debated this for a handful of seconds before allowing his shadow to detach and form into his Dākukurōn (Dark Clone) before dissipating into a black mist and reforming where Sakura was currently laying down. Haku was kneeling beside her, the hunter-nin mask discarded off to the side as she slowly worked to remove the senbons in the girls body.

"I'm sorry Naruto-kun!." Haku cried, looking up at the blonde who had managed to reign in his fury, taking on his normal appearance once more. Around them, the ice dome she had made fell to pieces. "I-I didn't mean for.... I was aiming for...."

"How is she, Haku-chan?" He asked softly, placing a reassuring hand on his shoulder to show that he did not blame her for what had happened.

Taking in a few deep breaths, the ice user responded.

"Minor puncture injuries. I intended to use the same tactic as I did on Zabuza-sama."

Nodding, Naruto removed his jacket and rolled it up. Gently placing it under the pinkettes head to offer her more comfort. Haku could only blush at the sight of the blondes exposed muscles. Brushing some pink strands out of the prone girls face, Naruto stood up to his full height and cast his gaze over to the remaining battle between Kakashi and Zabuza.

"Do you know any Iryo-ninjutsu?" The blonde asked, earning a nod from the ice user. "Please heal her as much as you can."

Naruto then performed a seal, and had four more Shadow Clones poof into existence.

"Watch over them, no one is allowed to get close."

"Got it boss!" The four said in unison.

"Naruto-kun, what are you going to do?" Haku asked, a little concerned.

"I promised Zabuza-san a good fight, and I never break a promise." He smiled. "But first."

Manipulating his dark energy into a small blade, he held it to Haku's neck. "Do you surrender?"

"I surrender." She smiled. Understanding what he was doing.

Nodding, Naruto withdrew the blade and allowed it to dissipate into the wind. Slowly turning and making his way towards the battle between Kakashi and Zabuza.
