*note that the Guren in this story is NOT the Guren in the original Shippuden series*
He`s dead, he has to be. There is no way he could still be alive. His technique can only last for five minutes. Unless…
"Damn it, I didn`t expect that to take up so much chakra." Guren turned around and saw Konan, panting. She no longer had the Dance of the Shikagami activated.
"Of course it would. Creating that many paper bombs alone would take half of the user's chakra. Even for me." Guren scanned the area, trying to detect any source of chakra.
"He`s dead now, you no long have to worr-"
Drip, drip, drip…
"I expected Konan to fall for this, but you? Your surname may not say so, but you are an Uchiha. You should`ve known that I would`ve used the Izanagi."
A chill crept up her back. She whipped around and saw Madara in a beaten up state. His cloak was ripped and a fourth of his mask was gone. His right eye was shut tightly and bleeding.
She teleported behind him and tried to soul-rip him, but Madara saw through this. He grabbed Guren's wrist and threw her across the lake. As she was flying through the air, she grabbed one of the beads from her pockets and threw it at Madara. She made a hand sign and she switched places with the bead, which was quickly forming into a crystal clone.
Once Madara realized what had happened, he held a weakened Konan in a headlock.
"One more move, and I snap her neck." He held her tightly.
"No you won`t. I know you won`t." Guren tried to distract him while a shadow clone materializes silently behind him.
"Wanna bet?" He grabbed the shadow clone`s hand. "Soul-ripping me won`t be so easy."
"I`m not soul-ripping you. Chidori!" She created a lightning blade with my shadow clone and had it cut right through Madara`s arm.
Konan fell to the lake. She thought that she defeated him. Even with his teleportation technique, losing an arm would be fatal. She heard a splash and turned around. That's when everything went dark. She had sealed her fate.
Guren was unconscious for a few hours. Directly on her right was the lifeless body of Konan.
"Ugh, not again…"
Behind her, the water formed into ice and someone was approaching her. It was a girl with curly black hair that reached to the middle of her back. She wore a black shirt with rips in it, black skinny jeans and lace up boots. She had gloves on with the finger holes cut open. A dragon tattoo was spiraling up her arm. She walked past Guren and towards Konan, holding her hand out, face expressionless. Guren used the Body Flicker technique and shielded Konan's body.
The girl looked up and said, "I guess the spirits were right. This world is quite powerful. You`re the girl from my dreams. We`re meant to be together."
