*~*~*~*
“Zabuza-sama, we have a visitor.”
Looking up from his sword that he was sharpening, Zabuza grunted at his young lover, watching him pet a dog that looked vaguely familiar. “Isn’t that the cyclop’s mutt?” he asked Haku.
Haku sent him a dark look as Pakkun growled. “His name is Pakkun, Zabuza-sama, and he is here to deliver a letter. Pakkun, would you like something to eat before you head back home?” he asked.
The pug shook his head with a doggy smile. “Nah, I’m good. Thanks though,” Pakkun said, standing to give himself a quick shake. “He’ll expect your answer to come back another way unfortunately,” he drawled. “I’ve been having to run around contacting friends for a while for some odd reason. I’m goin’ home now though.”
“Of course, Pakkun. It was rather nice to see you again,” Haku told him, standing up from where he had been kneeling at the door, letter in hand. He gave his lover and master a look.
“Yeah, see ya,” Zabuza grunted as Haku closed the door after Pakkun disappeared with a pop of smoke. Moving to sit down next to Zabuza, he opened the letter and pulled out the neat pages of writing. The large man sighed and put his sword to the side knowing that he wasn’t going to be able to continue his sharpening for the moment. “How did the cyclops find out about us bein’ alive ayways?” he grunted.
“As he says right at the start of his letter, he is the Copy-Cat Nin: Kakashi Hatake, and he can tell a mix of blood and water clones from a human being,” Haku stated. He read over the information laid out. “That and when they broke down, it seeped up a little through the graves. As for why he sent us a letter, he’s curious as to if we have heard anything about the Chunins of his village,” he said as he handed over the first page of the letter. “From what he says, there’s been a lot of rumors that are going around. Jiraiya-sama and Kakashi-san are both touching base with their trusted informants, or even people they know, to find out if those rumors had slipped past the walls.” He frowned. “It seems as if Naruto-kun is one of the Chunins in question.”
Zabuza frowned as he took the rest of the letter when it was offered by his small lover. “Apparently he’s looking for anything about the career Chunin of the village.” He looked down at Haku with a slightly curious look. “What do ya know about them?” he asked. He knew that his mate would know more about that particular subject. He seemed to just know all sorts of things that others didn’t.
Thinking about his answer, Haku stood and walked into their bedroom, hunting down a particularly small scroll that sealed his journals away, keeping them safe. “Found you, you little pain,” he muttered when he found it, walking back out and unsealing the books. Taking his seat once more, he flipped through them. “I know that I have something in here about them.”
Zabuza snorted at him and allowed his lover to shift through the pages to fine the ones that had the information that he wanted for the moment. While Haku muttered and riffled through the pages, he picked his sword up again and rewrapped it, standing up to put it onto it’s stand. “Find it?” he asked when saw that Haku had started to smirk at his notebook, amused by the fact that he was smirking.
“Of course I did. Let’s see. As far as anyone knows or care, career Chunin, also known as the desk jockeys, of Konohagakure are just that. Desk jockeys. They don’t have anything amazing about them. They do all of the paperwork and they’re well known to be amazingly picky about said paperwork. It’s actually interesting about how little we know about them,” Haku snickered, shaking his head. “The thing is, they have access to all of this data and people really don’t stop to think that they wouldn’t know anything?” he asked, looking up at Zabuza.
The Demon of the Mist just blinked at his lover, just staring as his brain worked over what Haku had told him. “Oh you have got to be fuckin’ around with me,” he finally snorted, frowning. “Are you tellin’ me that those damn Chunin of theirs probably know more than what they show to the rest of the world?” he asked.
Haku nodded his head. “Yeah. If you really think about it, they’re the ones who take the mission reports and have to read them to file in their proper places. It’s the same way in every village that I’ve seen. At least for the most part. But Konoha’s career Chunins take it to the extreme when it comes to their files. Ten to one, those desk Chunins of theirs are their failsafe that can’t be touched by anyone.” He smirked as he closed his journal. “I’m thinking that not even their Hokage can stop them if they have a valid reason for what they need to do.”
Zabuza smirked, nodding. “Oh but that is very interesting.” He snorted as he slumped in his seat. “So, have you heard anything interesting about them? More specifically, about our dear Naruto?” he asked, tilting his head to the side.
Haku shook his head with a huff. “Not anything different than what I’ve always heard about him. He’s scary strong, has gotten even better at fighting, and is getting better with his stealth every day that he lives. He’s gotten really, really good since the whole thing with the last try for the Jinchuriki's,” he mused. He nibbled at his bottom lip, tapping his notebook against the palm of his hand. “I don’t actually write down everything that I hear about him because I memorize it. And anytime that I get a letter from one of my contacts with new information or rumor, I write down the other information but burn the letter after memorizing the stuff about him,” he admitted.
“I figured,” Zabuza snorted, reaching out and tugging Haku down into his lap, one big hand resting on a lean hip. “Tell me, lover, what do you think is going on there in the Hidden Leaf?”
Haku hummed in thought as he settled onto his lover’s lap, shrugging. “I don’t really know actually. It seems as if they’re going through some troubles going on there. And it’s all centering around the career chunis of the village from what I could tell from Kakashi-san’s letter. Maybe we can get in to see their Hokage, see if we can’t somehow help them?” he asked, tilting his head. “It shall be something to do, that’s for sure.”
“I’m sure,” Zabuza huffed, looking around their temporary home base before he sighed. “Fine. You get to write to that Lady Hokage of theirs though. Explain to her who we are, what happened during our so called deaths, and I’ll start ta gather up everything,” he grunted.
“Yes, Zabuza-san,” Haku said, smiling as he stood and moved to the table where he had several papers laid out over it. Most of the papers were information for various job offers for them under working names, names that they had created long before Zabuza had tried to create a revolution in Mist. Sitting down, he gathered the offers up into a pile, placing them neatly onto one of his seals along a travel scoll, sealing them away for the moment.
He would have to go through them later on since none of them were needed to be done at the moment.
Pulling some paper to him, and picking up a pen, Haku set about to write a letter that spoke of Team 7’s mission to Wave so long ago and what had happened on their end. Including that they had used blood and water mixed together, which had been an interesting bit of work that had taken them years to perfect. But they had been able to use the clones to get away from Team 7, Gato, and the Kiri Hunter Nins that had been after them.
He continued the letter with the explanation as to why they had gone to ground the way they had, and that they were willing to help if she felt that they would be useful. Either way, they were still coming to the village to see Naruto, who they both missed in their own way.
Once he was done, he folded the letter up, tucked it into an envelope, sealed it with some wax and chakra, and called up one of his own summons. The rather cute barn owl clicked her beak at him in greeting. “Take this to the Hokage of the Village Hidden in the Leaves please. You don’t have to wait around if she doesn’t answer right away,” he instructed as he tucked the letter into a small pouch, placing it onto the owl. “I have no doubt that she will be able to send her own summons if she does want to send us a message.” She clicked her beak again. Standing up from the table, he opened a window for her to leave through and moved to help his lover pack and seal their things for travel.
He had learned when he had been young that Zabuza could pack for a long mission with no worries, but he couldn’t pack up their life to save his life. So Haku often was the one who did so, making sure that everything that they would need was kept within easy reach while the rest was sealed away. The scrolls were then tucked into various pockets and bags according to what they held.
It was still highly amusing that his lover still had such a weakness, especially after so many years together.
