Summary
It’s a time loop. After Zabuza’s fifth time dying and starting over again, he felt pretty confident in that assessment, and each cycle, he only becomes more certain. The reset trigger is his death, and the start point is always right before his first confrontation with Hatake.
But no matter what he does, it ends the same.
Well, that’s not quite true. Sometimes it’s worse.
---
When Zabuza dies in the Land of Waves after Haku's sacrifice and Gato's betrayal only to wake up again at the beginning of the mission, he sees an opportunity to change things. But when all logical paths lead straight to death, Zabuza is forced to make the illogical choice--side with Hatake and hope that just once, he and Haku can make it out of this alive. Kakashi has his own motives for agreeing to an alliance, however, and with so much at stake, both shinobi find themselves far more entangled with each other than either had intended when they set out.
(Haku isn't sure what happened to Zabuza-shishou to make him care so much all of a sudden, but he's not complaining. Naruto & Sakura are already planning the wedding. And Sasuke can't believe his definitely-not-a-family just grew by 2.)
