Hello Loyal/New Readers! This is my first stab at action, so bear with me. If you find my story short, read the next two chapters and you will find yourself satisfied. 54681 (I share a profile) said it's a great story, so look on please, and don't nag if something is incorrect. I'm basing everything past the Saku Ino Chunin bout on what 54681 has told me (look at my profile, explanation there), and some stuff on Wikipedia. Here is the text for each type of dialog.

"Regular Speaking."

"Jutsu in Japanese (if available)/Jutsu in English"

"Thoughts"

Chapter 1: The Battle

The blonde haired shinobi was sprawled on the floor, lifeless. The previous battle had exhausted all of his chakra, and it would be a miracle for him to live. The battle had lasted for hours, but seemed to drag on for years. It had been a mission to wipe out Orochimaru and put an end to his evil. The chosen people to go on this vital mission were non other than Jeriah, The Hokage herself, and Cell 7.

Sasuke took on his brother alone. If anyone interfered he threatened to end their life, and he could do it easily. He had learned much from Orochimaru, he even learned to master the Summoning Jutsu and call upon the Manda (Boss Snake). But he had no time to execute such a technique. The battle was fast paced, no-one ever gaining the upper hand. But, to Sasuke's advantage, Itachi made the slightest error, and lost his arm. He was still able to execute a jutsu that required only one hand. Itachi pinned his brother against a tree. He knew he was beat, but wanted to make the Uchiha Clan a thing of the past.

"Sōoojasōoosai no Jutsu/Twin Snakes Mutual Death Technique"

As Itachi spoke those lethal words, a grin spread across the face of the younger Uchiha. He had, in a way, avenged his clan. He had brought down his brother, and although he will be leaving as well, the monster that slaughtered his family lost his life as well.

Kabuto went up against Kakashi and Sakura, showing just what the right hand man of Orochimaru could do. If it weren't for the fact that Sakura was trained by Tsunade, they might've lost, for Kabuto had used Kuchiyose: Edo Tensei/Summoning: Impure World Resurrection to bring back Itachi, but his chakra was to low to do it perfectly, so Itachi's power was halfed, but still caused problems.

Sakura and Kabuto were evenly matched. The medic vs. medic battle was filled with twists, one of which Sakura losing her leg due to it being impaled, but it was healed soon after the battle. Kabuto put up a good fight, anticipating Sakura's attacks a retaliating when he saw an opening, but he healed himself too much, and left himself open for a deathblow, which Sakura happily provided via Sakura Fubuki no Jutsu/Sakura Blizzard Technique.

Kakashi wasn't so lucky in his match up, for Itachi was powerful, even wen his power is halved. The Copy Ninja couldn't keep up with one who's experience with the Sharingan was unmatched. Kakashi would use a jutsu, only to see it blow up in his face. Kakashi was losing energy, and Itachi did not neglect the advantage.

Blow after blow, Kakashi's body got bruised more and more, each blow more powerful than the last. Eventually, Itachi struck a mighty blow and snapped the bone in Kakashi's arm, the crack as loud as a gunshot. Kakshi fell to the ground in agony, his arm flailing around limply. Itachi was about to end Kakashi's life hen Sakura's Blizzard Technique hit Itachi as well as Kabuto. Kakshi quickly, yet very painfully, pulled himself together and ended the Uchiha bloodline for good.

Jeriah went 1 on 1 with Kisami. Kisami had the upper hand for most of the battle. He had made devastating damage to the Toad Sage, but Jiraiya had planned this. When he saw fatigue in his enemy, Jiraiya used Kuchiyose: Gamaguchi Shibari/Summoning: Toad Mouth Bind, and the shark-like shinobi was too exhausted of chakra to do anything in protection. He perished by the move that only he and his partner survived.

Naruto and the Slug Queen fought Orochimaru. Naruto and Tsunade were not having much trouble, but they had to end the battle as quickly as possible, for more sound ninja were on their way. Eventually, Naruto readied the Resengan while Tsunade kept Orochimaru occupied. When it was ready, Naruto hurled the swirling ball of chakra at Orochimaru, who escaped with his life, but not with his leg. His leg was reduced to a heap of flesh on the floor, and Orochimaru stared at it with wide eyes.

In desperation, Orochimaru summoned Manda to his aid. In turn, Gamabunta and Katsuyu were bought into the fight. The epic battle had started all over. But Orochimaru had forgotten something. Manda said that he would eat Orochimaru next time he was summoned. True to his word, the Snake Boss threw Orochimaru into the air and ate him, and began the battle of the giants. The Manda was more powerful than before, possibly from the consumption of his "master." Manda had successfully broke the Frog Boss' sword, causing many problems. Naruto called upon the Kyuubi for help.

"Kyuubi! Help me out here!"

"What do you want me to do, you twit. I can't give you enough chakra to de anything powerful enough to beat Manda!"

"Well do something! If I die, you die!"

"What do you want me to do? I can't help, GOT IT!"

Eventually, something happened. Eight tails bursted out, and Naruto grew to the size of the fox himself and resembled him in looks, but was in control. With this advantage, the Manda was easily dispatched of.

When the tails disappeared, Naruto fell, but was caught on Gamabunta's tongue and placed down. It was then that Sakura and the Hokage did procedures to keep him alive, and they all went back. They did more procedures on him at Konahagakure, but odd signs were showing up. His hair was turning the same color as the Demon's pelt. His face jutted out a small amount, like a fox. Everyone feared what might be happening.

Everyday for the next year, a stress worn Tsunade would visit Naruto and mourn for him and, possibly, the whole village. Sakura would also visit from time to time, but she was occupied enough with the mourning of her lost love. Tried everything to try and help Naruto. Every month, a new surgery was tried on the fallen warrior, and secret ones Tsunade and Sakura executed that the other medics might not have approved of.

The village was in one of it's saddest times as both of their greatest warriors left the world in which they know and went on into the next life, for they believed Naruto would die, people were starting to realize how much of a fool they'd been to ridicule Naruto.

Sasuke was mourned just the same. A memorial was built in his name, a large, marble statue in the middle of the village, which had a gold plaque that read "Uchiha Sasuke, Avenger of the Uchiha Clan, Traitor to Konoha, a Hero to all."

One night, Tsunade was about to visit Naruto. She walked into the spacious room, and saw that Naruto was missing, and the widow wide open. This spelt Death for the Konoha village, and the other countries as well. Naruto had somehow left with the seal is getting very weak very fast. The horror known as the Kyuubi could be freed.

R&R Please. Don't forget to look at my other story, Naruto Truth or Dare: Edition 50! I think this story is alright. Anyway, please review. I HATE it when people don't review but put the story on alert/fav, please don't do that!
