The Masked Girl (Naruto Story)

Chapter 35 - Smash the Mirrors! :D

Recap:

"This is unfortunate." Haku says, and my eyes widen as he weaves several handsigns. "Hidden Jutsu: Crystal Ice Mirrors!" He shouts, and I watch as ice quickly surrounds us in another dome made of crystallised water.

"Kuso! A Kekkei Genkai!" I shout.

"Heh. Your students may be strong enough to force Haku to use his Kekkei Genkai so quickly, but this is the end of the line for them!" Zabuza smirks.

Chapter 35 - Smash the Mirrors! :D

Kumiko's P.O.V.

I glance warily at the mirrors, before resuming watching Haku. My eyes widen as he stepps forwards, and into the ice. "What the......?" I murmur in shock, as a Haku appears on every one of the frozen mirrors.

*Hehe....Now what are you going to do, kit?* The Juubi chuckles, though I ignore her.

"Are these...mirrors?!" Sasuke asks rhetorically, as shocked as I am. "What the hell is this?!"

"He said Crystal Ice Mirrors, so I'm assuming that's exactly what they are." I answer, narrowing my eyes.

I hear running from outside the ice dome, and a quick glance shows Kakashi-sensei sprinting towards us before being stopped by Zabuza. "I'm your opponent, remember? Like I said, this is the end of the line for your students, so concentrate on surviving youself!" Zabuza taunts, before lunging forwards with his huge blade.

"Now then...I'll start. I shall show you my true speed!" Haku states, each of his reflections readying a senbon needle.

"Sasu-kun, back to back!" I shout, locking eyes with the other Uchiha. "It'll be easier to defend with a 360° view." I mutter as I pull out several kunai and feel Sasuke's back touching mine.

My eyes widen as a rain of senbon shoot towards us in a blur - fortunately, I my Sharingan is activated and I'm able to deflect most of them. 'He's really fast!' I think, senbon tearing through my shirt sleeve, and another catching my hand.

"Ahhhhh!" I hear Sasuke scream , and his kunai clatters to the floor. Another scream tears from his throat, and I wince.

"Sasuke! Try to- Oh, what the hell!" I yell, determination clear in my now-red eyes. I push Sasuke to the ground and stand over him, using my Sharingan and kunai to deflect as many as I could, but I was still hit with multiple senbon needles, taking the brunt of the attack. "Haku!" I yell out, racking my brain for something to say that would make him stop. Wincing as another senbon needle cutts into my arm, I shout, "You suck at acupuncture!"

"Sasuke-kun, take this!" Sakura shrieks, throwing a kunai towards us. I pant as Haku pauses in his assault to catch it. "H-He caught it?!" Sakura chokes out, mouth agape.

**It may not have the effect Saku-chan hoped for, but at least it gave us a quick break. Are you okay?** I held a gloved hand towards Sasuke, examining the multiple cuts lacing his body.

**Somewhat.** He grunts mentally, taking my hand. I pull him up, frowning as he pants.

My eyes widen again as a shuriken flies out of nowhere and hits Haku's mask, cracking it slightly. "What the hell was that?!"

Even with the state I'm in, I still facepalm as I hear the sound of a smoke bomb going off on the bridge. "Oh Naru-kun.....You've just lost your advantage!" I yell, an irk mark pulsating on my forehead.

"Hmm..." Haku muses calmly, and I notice the deep scratch through the middle of his mask.

**It seems like we can attack him from the outside, Kumi-chan.** Sasuke noted.
