Zabuza stood on my left and Haku stood on my right. In front of us stood Gato and his army of thugs.

"I meant to tell you Zabuza, but you no longer work for me. You're price is too high and I can pay my thugs way less." Gato sneered.

"That's great to hear. I was just going to tell you that I quit." Zabuza chuckled. "And you won't be able to hire anyone ever again!"

I ran towards the group of thugs and jumped, using my wings to fly above them. I grabbed Gato by the neck and brought him back to Zabuza, throwing him to the ground in front of him.

"Look away children." Zabuza said.

Naruto, Sakura and I turned around. Haku was used to death, and Sasuke thought he was a tough guy.

I could hear Zabuza stab Gato and his shrill squeal, afterwards it was silent.

"You can look now." Zabuza said.

I looked around for Gato, but frowned once I noticed he was gone.

"Where's Gato?" I asked.

"I bunted him off the bridge." Zabuza replied.

I just nodded and accepted his answer, then turning my attention to Gato's thugs.

"If Gato can't pay us then we'll attack the village!" One of the thugs yelled, making his fellow thugs shout in agreement.

An arrow suddenly landed just in front of the group.

"Then you'll have to go through us!" Tazuna's grandson declared, the villagers beside him roaring in rage.

Naruto created a horde of shadow clones, Kakashi also making a few. Zabuza made water clones and Haku and I glared at them threatenly.

The thugs backed down and ran away like cowards. All of the clones dispersed and we stared at each other awkwardly.

"Sooo...." I started awkwardly. "Lot's to talk about?"

"You have no idea." Kakashi agreed.

"Back to my place then?" Tazuna suggested.

"Yes." We all agreed.

~10 minutes later~

Zabuza, Haku and I all sat beside each other at Tazuna's dining room table. Across from us sat Kakashi, Sasuke, Sakura, Naruto, Tazuna, Tsunami, and Tsunami's son Inari. I could now see and had gotten my glasses back.

"First of all, where were you?" Kakashi asked.

"I was out training, Haku found me and knocked me out, I met Zabuza, came up with my plan to save the Land of Waves, fought you guys at the bridge, jumped off the bridge to save Haku, wings and tail, blah, blah, blah, and here we are!" I summed up.

"Second question, how long have you had wings and a tail?" Kakashi asked.

"Since I was four or five I think." I replied.

"How'd you get them?" Naruto asked.

"I was kidnapped on my fourth birthday by a man named Orochimaru, after that I was experimented on. Lizard and bird DNA was mixed in with my own and I sort of just grew a tail and wings. I was saved by a group of ANBU one day when they came to investigate one of Orochimaru's bases. I was brought to Konoha and went to the Academy to be a ninja. Nobody in the village knows about me except for you guys." I explained, flicking my tail left and right.

"Lastly, why are they still here?" Kakashi inquired, pointing at Zabuza and Haku.

"I was thinking of bringing them back to Konoha with us?" I said slowly.

"Yuuto, are you crazy!?" Kakashi exclaimed. "They are both from Kirigakure! Not only that, but Zabuza is a missing nin! Kirigakure would kill to have Zabuza dead! Even if they were to come with us, they'd still have to transfer villages, and to do that we'd have to get on the Mizukage's good side!"

"So it is possible." I said.

"Yes," He agreed. "But you'd have to convince the Hokage and the Mizukage to allow them to transfer villages."

"Well I have to talk to the Hokage about my... Predicament when we get back anyway." I mumbled. "So can we bring them with us! Please!"

"Fine." Kakashi sighed, turning to glare at Haku and Zabuza. "But if any of you try anything I will have to kill you."

"Understood Kakashi." Haku said.

"Sure thing." Zabuza chuckled.

"Then I guess we will be leaving first thing tomorrow," Kakashi announced. "Tsunami, can you help me rearange the rooms?" 

"Of course!" Tsunami agreed.

"In the mean time, you guys can go train or something." Kakashi said. "Zabuza, you're staying with me."

"If you guys need me, I'll be outside then." I said, getting up from my seat.

I headed out the door and walked towards the ocean, sitting on the dock just outside of Tazuna's house. It wasn't long before Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura and Haku joined me, sitting by the ocean.

"How come you didn't tell us about this sooner?" Naruto asked.

"I didn't know how you'd all react." I replied. "Nobody really liked me at the Academy so I figured you'd all look down on me."

"Are you kidding?" Sakura asked. "You're amazing! I never liked you in the Academy because you were so much better than me."

"Got to admit, I never expected this." Sasuke sighed.

"You are quite the ninja Yuuto." Haku agreed.

"I'm just honestly surprised this worked out." I said. "Speaking of that, in case you guys didn't all ready know, this is Haku."

"Nice to meet you all, my full name is Haku Yuki, but I'm not supposed to speak of my clan." Haku introduced.

"I'm Sakura Haruno!"

"Sasuke Uchiha!"

"Future Hokage, Naruto Uzumaki."

"Great, now we all know each other." I said, smiling lightly.

"Dinner time!" Tsunami called from the house.

"Coming!" We all replied.

We all got up and started walking back to the house for dinner, talking to each other about different things.

"You're a boy?!" Sakura shrieked.

"Yeah." Naruto sighed. "That confused me too. Speaking of, where is your friend Sora?"

"That was me in disguise Naruto." I snickered.

Naruto hung his head as we walked back.

"Anyways, yes Sakura, Haku is a boy like me." I said, answering Sakura's original question.

"he's too pretty to be a boy." Sakura sighed.

"I'm flattered." Haku chuckled.

We finally reached the house and went inside, sitting at the table for dinner. Inari had suprisingly taken a seat between Naruto and Zabuza of all people. Inari just stared at him all throughout dinner. I had expected a lot more to be said about my tail or wings, but it seemed like everyone had kind of already gotten used to them. I mean, there are some weird fucking people in this world.

"What's your tail doing Yuuto?" Naruto asked suddenly.

I glanced at my tail and noticed that it was wagging back and forth.

"It means he likes the food." Haku said from my right.

"Well, I'm glad you like it!" Tsunami exclaimed.

"I wanna touch your tail..." Inari mumbled.

My tail went under the table and brushed against Inari's legs, making him jump. He peeked under the table and noticed it was my tail, making him relax.

The rest of dinner went by smoothly, everyone making small talk and enjoying the food that Tsunami cooked. Once dinner was over Tsunami lead us all upstairs to the rooms she had prepared.

"Sakura, do you mind sharing a room with Inari for the night?" Tsunami asked. "I originally thought that Yuuto was a girl."

"No problem Tsunami." Sakura said, having Inari lead her to his room.

"This room is for Kakashi and Zabuza." Tsunami said, pointing at a door.

"Goodnight everyone." Kakashi said, grabbing Zabuza and dragging him into the room.

"Night!" Zabuza said before he was dragged away.

"I have two more rooms left, you boys can split into groups of two and each take a room." Tsunami said, pointing at the remaining two rooms.

"I'll share with you Yuuto." Haku said, me being his only friend.

"Okay." I agreed.

"Then I guess it's me and you Sasuke!" Naruto exclaimed.

"Hn." Sasuke grunted.

We all said good night to Tsunami and headed to our rooms for the night. I kept my tank top on, but changed into some silk shorts and then threw myself onto my cot in the corner of the room.

"Um... Yuuto?" Haku said quietly. 

"What is it?" I asked, turning my head to look at him.

"Do you have some clothes I could borrow for tonight?" He asked shyly.

"Yeah sure, just give me a second." I replied, getting off the bed.

I rumaged round in my bag until I found an extra tank top and shorts.

"These work?" I asked, tossing the shirt and shorts to him.

"Yes, thank you." He replied.

Haku changed into the clothes and took his hair out of it's bun, then sitting on his cot on the other side of the room. When his clothes aren't so loose he actually looks like a guy. 

"Goodnight Haku." I yawned, snuggling my face into the pillow.

"Goodnight Yuuto." He replied, smiling softly.

I turned on my side and wrapped my wings around me to keep me warmer, shutting my eyes. After a day like today, I needed sleep.
