Amusing sidenote: The Hulu summary starts off with 'Kakashi realizing time is of the essence.' We may all now enjoy a good chuckle.
Sakura cheers from the sidelines, but Kakashi stops her, as neither of the boys need encouragement to do anything dumb. Kakashi says they're just not a match for Haku, since Haku's ready to kill and they aren't. Zabuza calls Leaf Village the hippy ninja village, so I guess they really are the nice ninjas. Our Copy Ninja decides he's got to put Zabuza down quick if he's going to be any help to the boys, so goes for Sharingan straight away. Zabuza tries to nip it in the bud by stabbing out Kakashi's eye. Harsh. The Mist Demon comments that a secret ninja technique shouldn't be observed so much, but Kakashi counters that it's okay, Zabuza's the only one who's seen it twice. Kakashi? Badass. The rogue ninja says that even if Kakashi manages to put Zabuza away, there's no chance for even the former to stop Haku. Zabuza's been brutally training up Haku since Haku was a g... boy, and now he's not even that, he's simply a Shinobi. Throw in the Kekkei Gankai and Haku's a killing machine.
Inside the mirror cage, Naruto tries for the Shadow Clone again, which unsuprisingly Haku still manages to duck AND multi-tasks by skewering Sasuke again. This time, though, Sasuke actually managed to catch sight of Haku's trail with all the water in the mirrors. He uses the water on purpose when Naruto Shadow Clones a third time. While the kids are feeling each other out, Zabuza takes the chance to brag about Haku some more, and also let Kakashi know he didn't quite go out like the punk we thought. He had Haku observed the whole battle, and fires up his Mist Jutsu again, but I think it's even thicker this time. Kakashi has Sakura make sure to guard Tazuna, and she tells him to stay with her. He has not a single problem that.
Cage-time, and Haku knows Zabuza wants him to stop farting around. Naruto Shadow Clones a fourth time, but now when he mirror jumps, Sasuke adds his fire breath to the mix. They go for it again, and this time it slows down Haku long enough for Sasuke to tag the real him. Clever! Kakashi and Kabuza are about to throw down, but it's not going to Kakashi's plan. Zabuza's figured out that it's the eyes that are Sharingan's focus, so keep them closed and you can break the hold. I know Zabuza's supposed to be gloating about how he's got Kakashi sorted, but the way he does it just makes Kakashi seem all sorts of awesome. Kakashi points out that now Zabuza can't kill either, but that's not a problem for the rogue - he's trained to kill without seeing. In the mirrors, Sasuke's about figured Haku out, and even shows something like concern for Naruto, maybe. He barks for Naruto to try and bust his way out of the mirrors, and after a few tries, he catches Haku out of the mirrors for just a second. Sasuke wants to try a second time, and Naruto's down for it. Sasuke figures Haku's running low on Chakra, too, but this time Haku focuses on Sasuke instead of Naruto with painful results for Sasuke. Naruto gets his dose off needle medicine too, because Haku is an equal oppurtunity assassin.
Outside, Kakashi's trying to center himself, as it's been a while since someone hit his level of awesome. When the attack doesn't come, he realizes that he's not the the target - Tazuna is. Zabuza makes for the bridge-layer, and Kakashi goes for the block. A swing of the sword, a spray of blood, Sakura screams...
Next Episode: Things are going to get worse before they get better. I'm kind of stoked for it.
