After a few minutes of walking Naruto had began to throw kunai. Making shiro sigh
"Naruto-kun-" shiro started, Sasuke and Sakura cut her off, as well as Tazuna, kakashi staying quiet.
"You idiot those are dangerous!" Sakura scolded, shiro looked to the thing her friend had been throwing at..
"Hatake-Sensei? Aren't white bunnies usually found in winter?" She asked holding the bunny and nuzzling it. The boys all stared at her. Kakashi looked at it
"They are.." Kakashi trailed off. Kakashi suddenly shouted to everyone to duck, shiro did as she was told. Ducking down quickly, letting go of the bunny, it then ran off. Shiro looked up and went pale, seeing a large sword stuck in the tree just above her. Kakashi smirked, as a man appeared ontop of the sword, shiro stumbling backwards, hitting Sasuke. Sasuke got hold of her hand and pulled her away from the man. Getting ready to fight.
"Hatake Kakashi, the Copt cat.." The man tainted, shiro looked to her Sensei. Kakashi watched the man
"Zabuza momochi, demon of the mist" Kakashi growled lowly, the two began to talk, but both ready for battle.
"Hey! Your a killer right! Kill her!" Sakura shouted, shoving shiro forward, "she's useless to us anyway" Sakura said smirking, Sasuke smirked and nodded in agreement, shiro looked up at zabuza. Her scarlet eyes staring up into the man's black ones, enticing the assassin..
"You fool, only the weak would sacrifice their own teammate!" Zabuza shouted taking he, of his sowed and jumping to the side, kakashi moved Infront of shiro protectively
"You three! Manji formation!" Kakashi shouted the other three genin nodded. Shiro looked up at her Sensei scared..
"Hatake-Sensei... What about me?" Shiro asked quietly, kakashi sighed
"Stay out of this fight shiro. I want you to keep moving, towards the hidden mist. I don't want you anywhere near this fight got it?!" Kakashi said loudly, keeping his focus on zabuza, shiro looked up at him with a disbelieving look
"Hatake-Sensei....." Shiro then looked down and her ears lowered.. "Hai" she said, zabuza growled
"she's not going anywhere!" Zabuza shouted, appearing Infront of shiro, the girl stared up at him.. A ear shredding scream of pain filled the jounin's ears as he spun around.. Terrified to see the most innocent of his students get cut down it, all seemed to go in slow motion..blood splattered over the ground as the girls body went limp. The two halves falling to the floor... He stood the frozen... He didn't just let her get killed... He didn't.. He didn't let his student get killed.. On her first mission...He began to shake.. Naruto stared at the blood slathered on the ground, Sakura and Sasuke shocked.. Zabuza began to laugh
"Leaving your guard down will leave you dead Kakashi!" Zabuza shouted, but as Zabuza was about to attack Kakashi spun around, blocking the attack with his kunai. Pure rage filled the man's eyes as he stared at Zabuza with a deadly look.. The two men began to fight, Naruto was on his knees.. Zabuza didn't just hurt his friend.. He killed her... He killed shiro..
"YOU BASTARD!" Naruto shouted enraged.. Going to attack when Kakashi stopped him
"Naruto this is my fight. Your not to go any further!"
"BUT HE KILLED SHIRO! HE KILLED MY BEST FRIEND!"
"I KNOW ALRIGHT!" Kakashi shouted, he didn't know how to react.. Naruto sunk back.. Going back to the group, kakashi kept fighting.. The only thing on team 7's mind was.. The word

Why?
