After Sasuke's revenge on Itachi was complete, he noticed his tem battle damaged. "What happened?" he asked with the same emotionless eyes. Karin panted still worn out. "The Leaf Ninja caught up. We managed to hold them off." she said. Suigetsu sipped on one of his bottles. "(urp) Yeah, that dog boy put up a fight." he smirked. Juugo was still heavily battle damaged but didn't say anything. "Let's go. My mission is through... Itachi Uchiha is finally dead." he walked past his team and they followed, Suigetsu however was deep in thought.
CHAPTER 1: THE BATTLE
Karin was going toe to toe against Hinata and Sakura simutamiously doing her best to avoid the attacks and managed to kick Hinata into the pink haired girl. Suigetsu was occupied trying to avoid Kiba and Akamaru's attacks and at the same time, the perestic beetles being sent by Shino. Juugo was having a hard time fending against Yamato and Kakashi and started to growl, black squares started spreading through half of his body. He than roared and turned his blacked arm into a large blade and sliced through Yamato's wood based attacks and aimed for Kakashi missing but didn't stop. Suigetsu smirked and tossed the Gilltotine Sword in the air. "Suiton: Bakushi Shoha!" he than inhaled and spat out a tidal wave of water and flooded the forest. "Heh-heh-heh. Now this'll be more intersting." he smirked devisosly. He turned to Karin and saw who she was fighting, the second he saw Sakura he couldn't move. Something about her made him stop. Karin turned to him, "SUIGETSU YOU MORON FIGHT YOUR ENEMIES!!" she shouted, Suigetsu snapped from his trance, "Ah shut up you moron!" he yelled and turned back to Kiba and ran at him holding the Sword and yelled. Juugo was on a tree and laughed crazily. "GET OVER HERE!" he shouted jumping at Kakashi, when Kakashi jumped Juugo sliced the branch of the tree and chased after Kakashi swinging like a moron. "WHERE ARE YOU GOING!?" he yelled and noticed Yamato making handsigns, he turned and dashed at the Mokuton using shinobi and slashed at him interuppting the hand signals.
Suigetsu continued slashing at Kiba and Shino who evaded each hit. Suigetsu laughed evilly and his eyes widened, "Take this!!" he shouted swinging the sword in a complete 360 degrees and missed, Shino than noticed he had a handsign of a rabbit. "Ninja Art... Waterspout Jutsu!" just than several parts of the water spun and streacthed at the sky becoming waterspouts pulling Shino, Kiba and Akamaru in. "Dang... The wind's too strong." Kiba growled. Suigetsu than sliced at the water with the sword in his mouth and made several handsigns doing so. "Ninja Art: Umi Jishin!" just than the water started to split in a line and forced the dog ninja to jump only to get too close to the waterspout, same for Shino and Akamaru. Karin looked while tossing Sakura into a tree. "Not bad I guess." she said. She than looked at a tired Hinata and smirked fixing her glasses and walked over. "Now to finish it." she said pulling a kunai out, Hinata got up and got into her battle stance showing she can still fight. Just than Karin stopped and felt a dying charka level. "This charka... The one dying... It's not Sasuke's but... Almost as powerful... Could it be his brother?" she thought. Suigetsu looked at Sakura once more. Juugo was still chasing after Kakashi who bearly had time to do anything. Karin than shouted, "Juugo, Suigetsu! Come on!" she than vanished, Suigetsu growled. "Darn witch..." he sneered and reached into his pocket puling a scroll out. "Good thing I stole this healing scroll from Karin before we fought. I was going to use it in case my scars were serious but... That girl could use it more..." he nodded and tossed the scroll onto the knocked out Sakura's stomech, "Juugo. We're pulling out." he walked off sipping his water bottle and saw Juugo calming down, not even Juugo understood whatwas happening, was he actully controling hisself without Sasuke's help? He stopped and followed Suigetsu. When Team Hebi vanished Hinata walked weakly to Sakura and collapsed to her knees while the water resieded. "Sakura daijoobu?"
