Ch. 5

Ch. 5

Beautiful.

He was warm and surrounded by light. The darkness of well-paid murder didn't exist here. Haku could feel himself floating in this new world, free from the mortal restrictions of his body. Surely this was Heaven. I guess I lost too much blood.

That didn't seem to matter though, the fact that he was dead. This new place, this after world, couldn't have been more serene, more pretty, if it tried. It was a world of only beauty, and Haku felt right here. Where's Zabuza-san? I want to share this with him.

Haku surveyed his new surroundings, the light and the warmth and the beauty, and he could not see Zabuza anywhere. Zabuza-san?


The boy strained all his senses, but he couldn't find the masked shinobi. Haku search for any sign of shadow...any spot in this land of sweetness where a man like Zabuza would feel comfortable. Zabuza-san?


“Damnit! Fuck!”



Zabuza-san? The voice was faint, but the boy reached out towards it. He'd never heard his master sound like that before—nearly free of shinobi control.



“If those bastards think that they can take you back, they're sorely mistaken. Your mine. Mine. Fuck, this bleeding won't stop...”



He couldn't understand what Zabuza-san was saying, it didn't really make any sense, but that didn't matter. Keep talking, Zabuza-san. I need to find you. Haku felt a shiver enter his skin, and noticed his surroundings were changing. He was walking away from the light, the warmth. It wasn't so pretty here...but Zabuza-san was here.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



“Haku! Answer me,” Zabuza hissed through shark teeth. “I order you to answer me.” He sat back, dizzy. His left arm, braced in the closest thing to a splint that he could coble together, was bothering him. Pain and exhaustion kept blurring his vision, but giving up was not possible. Not possible.

The boy lay on his stomach, in the position Zabuza had found him in. He'd bandaged his back with the gauze and tape they kept with them for smaller wounds—not for something like this. A man didn't just walk away from a hurt like this. Haku would die. “The fuck you will.”

As gently as he could, Zabuza draped Haku over his right shoulder, holding him in place with his good arm. The nearest medic was hours away. Zabuza had no more strength left, and the youth would surely bleed out within minutes...None of that mattered.

“You're mine, Haku. Do you hear me? If you leave me, I'll tear Heaven apart to find you.”
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Haku was alive, he was awake. He was in pain.

But he could here Zabuza's voice. That voice that spit curses and murder was sweeter to Haku than all the peace Heaven could offer.



“Heal him.”

“You can't just break down my door in the dead of night, and demand things of me! My wife and children were sleeping!”

“They'll be dead if you don't do as I say.”



Haku couldn't understand any of it, too busy trying to stay conscious to even whimper over the slash in his back.



“This is a lot of blood.”

“Heal him.”

“The boy might already be dead.”



Haku felt himself being laid out on a hard surface on his stomach. The action caused him to black out for the next few seconds. When he came to...he was certain he heard a child crying.



“Please! Please, sir! Let my little girl go—I'll do whatever you say!

“Then FUCKING HEAL HIM!”



He was prodded and poked gently by trembling fingers. It was agony, only made worse by how dreadfully slow time was moving.



“T-talk to the boy.”

“He's unconscious, baka.”

“N-n-no, he's awake. He can't go to sleep; if he goes to sleep, he'll die. Too weak—he's lost so much blood...”

“Haku. Haku—if your there—say something.”



And order. All he could manage was a sound close to a gurgle.



“If you die—I'll come after you. I'll drag your sorry carcass back, and make this plane of existence hell on earth for you. Do you understand, Haku?”

“He shouldn't spe--”

“Shut it, Fuck. Haku? Answer me!”

“H-hai...Zabu...san.”




Latter, Haku wasn't able to remember all that happened that night, in the frightened, rock country medic's home. But he did remember that Zabuza had talked to him the rest of the night and well into the next day, not letting him sleep (even though he was so tired and weak) not letting him die. If he hadn't already had every pore of his being saturated with loyalty to his master, his great love would surely have doubled from the experience of that night.

Haku thought no more about the pretty afterworld he'd seen when he'd believed himself to be dead. It was everything he could ever ask for in a home, but it would have to wait. Zabuza-san had other places he wanted to go (an upcoming mission in wave country had currently caught his attention), so Haku would go to these places with him. The love he carried within him for his master was all the Heaven Haku needed.

A/N: I know I took too long to write this last chapter (and it didn't have any hard yoai in it at all! *gasp*)

If any of you want me to apologize in the form of an epilogue (where a certain long-haired pretty boy gets his virginity taken away by a certain masked ninja...), just let me know if the form of a review!
