*continuation of the Zabuza fight*
The glider touched down, depositing Leaf genin and jounin beside Neshan and Tazuna.
Kakashi's eyes narrowed as they scanned the surface of the water. The liquid seemed to momentarily churn, and the Leaf jounin's still uncovered Sharingan caught the shifts, small waves and rolling ripples that hinted at something akin to a struggle happening ...
"Where'd Katsu ...?"
The water erupted upwards, settling to show Katsu kneeling on the surface, one hand thrust downwards. The genin flinched to the side, keeping his limb submerged, as the blade of Zabuza's sword thrusting upwards from below the water flashed past his head.
Katsu's free hand went from his thigh pouch to being shoved downwards alongside the other, then rapidly pulled back, and the Kakashi could see the screw his eyes shut and turn his head aside.
The water rippled away from the point his hand, encased in the armored gauntlet he'd scavenged from one of the dead Mist chunin, remained submerged at, and the muted light of a flashbang going off directly underneath shone, then went out.
Katsu wobbled, then seemed to lose focus, and went splashing down himself. Shortly followed by the swordblade tipping over.
There was a moment of silence.
It was broken by Katsu dragging his sodden self out of the lake.

Used:
Mizu Bushin - to grab Zabuza when he was underwater. Lasted two seconds, even with the fact that he'd 'grabbed' by virtue of two kunai to the shoulders.
Zabuza replied with a lead in to Daibakufu, but the Bushin had bought Katsu the time for Suirou (Water Prison) so he wasn't torn apart. And even with the prison, the jounin almost managed to put his bigass sword through Katsu's head. Would have, if it weren't for the fact that Suirou lets you control water density.
Flashbang into the Prison.
And Katsu's looking a little wobbly because the Suirou took more Chakra than he'd expected it to.
