Chapter 27 : That's Dark (Rewrite)

Kirito started his attack on Haku slowly. He wanted to test out how strong Haku was.

Haku also started to defend. Haku was trying hard to repel Kirito but Kirito was stronger than her.

This goes on for some time and then Kirito finally feels that he has all the things he wanted to know.

He stopped fighting and this made Haku stop as well.

"You are a strong fighter, I have never seen a girl fight like you before," said Kirito starting the conversation.

"I am not a girl. I am a boy. I lied to you earlier" replied Haku.

"I highly doubt that, you see I can sense when people are lying. And you my dear are lying through your teeth," commented Kirito in a nonchalant manner.

Haku did not say anything more. She just kept observing Kirito and was vigilant of what he might do next.

" You are not just his comrade are you," said Kirito.

"I am Zabuza Sama's tool," said Haku

"Your weight is a little off balance and you also have many brushes in your body which you are trying to hide," said Kirito.

Haku still did not say anything. But was getting more restless the more Kirito talked.

"let me guess, you are not his just a tool. More like his captive or a slave".

The signs that Kirito noticed plus the smell he was getting from Haku thanks to his Hyper Focus. Kirito was fully aware that there was a possibility that in this real world.

The same Zabuza who cried for Haku in the anime might be her rapist.

Kirito's concern grew more when he did not get any response from Haku.

He on purpose did not use the word sex slave to not make her feel more burdened.

He still doesn't know if what he is thinking is true or not but he fully understands that this world is many times different from the anime he watches and the manga he reads.

Zabuza is said to be a person who is bloodthirsty in the anime. He alone killed more than 100 students when he was a kid.

Zabuza later was shown as a caring hero who cared for Haku as his son. But how much is that true?

In this world, Haku is a girl and as much as Kirito has seen, People are much different than the original Anime world.

Kirito cannot even believe that the same Zabuza who cried for Haku in the anime would ever think of raping her but from the other perspective.

He is a person who killed many people over the years. He is said to be the bloodthirsty person in Kiri after the mad Misukage himself.

So, how many chances are there for a killer to turn into a rapist and a paedophile? In Kirito's book, pretty high.

Kirito himself liked Zabuza's character from the anime a lot but this world is not anime. And he has to accept the reality.

There is a high possibility with all the signs he is getting that Zabuza sexually assaulted Haku before.

"What do you care" Haku finally said with almost moist eyes. She was already ready to kill herself if Kirito tried to take advantage of her.

Kirito noticed this tone and now he was almost confirming that what he was thinking was not just a speculation any more.

He still doesn't know what exactly happened. He might still be wrong at this but for the time being he has to do something about Haku.

Kirito came here to kill both Haku and Zabuza. But after knowing this he can't kill this girl who is barely older than his brother.

Kirito is an adult in his mind so he does not count. Well, he too when died was not that old, barely 18.

"Well I don't particularly care yes, but I am not so heartless to leave a girl just like this you know," said Kirito trying to act cool and yet caring.

Kirito had no idea how to handle a case like this. He has learned how to code and even make pancakes in his previous life. He had learned how to kill people and to some extent even how to heal people.

But he had no idea how to comfort a sexually harassed / Assaulted girl (He still doesn't know which one it is).

"What I want to say is that I don't know what to say in times like this to comfort a girl but I can help you out. You have nowhere to go and alone you will not last long. You can tag along with my team if you want. They have not seen you yet and I might be able to convince them to take you to Konoha if you want to " said Kirito.

Haku did not say anything. She already planned to run away but now she had a choice. He was not sure what to do and needed time to think about the situation.

Kirito noticed this and said "It's fine, I and my team will stay in this place for some time now. You can think about it and let me know later. You already might know where we are stationed correct."

Haku nodded and turned around to leave. She did not have enough power to fight Kirito anymore.

She also was praying in her mind that Kirito just let her go. But when he gave her the option to leave with him, she was taken aback.

This was the same thing Zabuza said all that time back. She had no idea what to do.

Once Haku left the place. Kirito makes a clone to trail Haku.

He might be sympathetic towards her situation but that does not mean he will let his guard down. 

Kirito didn't directly go back but rather went to an open place. 

He remembers that during that fight with Zabuza his hand almost turned black.

He is not sure but there is a possibility that he unknowingly activated a bloodline power.

Possible considering that Ninja World has many of those.

So he tested out and soon figured out something.

He found that after concentration his fist became darker.

It's not complete back but darker for sure.

"Is this steel release ?" Kirito couldn't help but question.

In the entire anime, there was only one similar technique which was used by Kakuzu.

There is a possibility that what he has is similar.
