I do not own Naruto.

I do not own this song. It is Dance with the Devil by Breaking Benjamin.

He was a solitary soldier and part of the strongest clan of Konoha. How you may ask can he be both? Well a long time ago when he was too young to remember his family disappeared and his only sister that he knew of was killed by Kabuto and Orochimaru. Growing up he was looked at as strange as he desperately tried to find his family. With his shoulder length white hair and sharingan eyes, it was said that he may be a distant relative of the now destroyed Uchiha clan. A mission called him to the cold streets of Konoha this day as he finally reached the Hokage's office and knocked on the door.

A tired, but calm female voice called for him from behind the door.

"Yes Lady Tsunade?", he asked upon entering her office.

"A demon has appeared in Suna, a village of our allies. Gaara is unable to handle this fight on his own and requested assistance. I need you to go aide the kazekage in his battle.", Tsunade said to him.

"As you wish", he said turning to leave.

"Oh and Axyrn....", Tsunade said.

"Yes Lady Tsunade?", he asked eyebrows raised.

"After this, I want you to take a break you have been through a lot.", she said to him.

"I appreciate your concern Lady Tsunade, but nothing is too much for Axyrn Tokigashi", he said and left in the blink of an eye.

He was now on the way to the sand village to help Gaara fight a new and strange demon. Hmph, he thought to himself, How can Gaara be a strong Leader if he can't fight off one demon? Regardless of his personal feelings about the leadership of such a young kazekage he continued on his way with his faithful sword and immortal killer, Suizangoko. As he took a small break in a tree on his way to Suna he remembered everything that had happened to him recently.

When he finally discovered that he was a Tokigashi, he took the genjutsu off of his families mansion. The genjutsu the third Hokage had put on it to conceal the power that was left with in it. He became the oraganiztion leader of two almost different oraganizations: Organization XIII and the Dark Ones. He was their commander, their leader, their king, but was use does a king have when his subjects only fear him. In the midst of all that he thought he had found a girl whom he could love and trust. Her name was Ino Yamanaka. They had a good marriage up until she left him for a Kiri ninja named Takashi on her last mission. He had been so heartbroken that a couple new tattoos appeared on his right arm: Heartbreak and Chaos. He had wanted her to continue on his clan's bloodline and entrusted her with the secrets of the Tokigashi clan. On the night he learned of her betrayal, he erupted in a rage and went to Kiri. She was pregnant with the bastard's child and that was just the last straw as she fought against him to save her lovers life. He crushed the neck of Takashi and burned her alive with the rest of the household. Now he was alone doing missions to keep him slightly less chaotic.

He made his way to the Kazekage's office in Suna, not caring about the stares he was getting and knocked on the door. A voice from inside told him to enter as he set eyes on the young kazekage. Gaara looked up at him.

"So you are the one that Tsunade sent to help.", Gaara said.

Axyrn remained silent.

"Very well. This demon is different from the ones we are used to in this land. It has been lurking in the forest not far from here and I want you to find it and kill it. Understood?", Gaara asked.

"Yes.", Axyrn said and left.

He walked to the forest and met the creature that even Gaara feared. It had black wings and horns. It looked like both a man and a beast something that he had not even seen in his nightmares.

"So the fool has sent you to try and kill me?", the devil laughed. "A tortured soul like yours would be great to add to my collection.", he laughed in a laugh that chilled Axyrn to the bone.

Axyrn smirked and looked at the demon. "I'd like to see you try.", he said to the demon.

The demon laughed again. "Well then if you can kill me try it."

Axyrn fought with the devil using Suizangoko against the devil's blade. The sound of metal could be heard from miles away as the dark energy from the Devil's blade and the red chakra induced Suizangoko hit each other destroying the landscape a bit each time. His tattoo started glowing as they fought and he managed to land a hit on the devil as the devil managed to stab him in the stomach and push forward until Axyrn was stuck with the sword in his stomach to a tree and bleeding.

"You fought well", the devil said.

Here I stand, helpless and left for dead.

Close your eyes, so many days go by.

Easy to find what's wrong, harder to find what's right.

I believe in you, I can show you that I can see right through all your empty lies.

I won't stay long, in this world so wrong.

"What does it matter? I have lost...", Axyrn said though his eyes were filled with rage that could be felt when he closed them

"You are an interesting human. How about I offer you something I have offered no one before", the devil said.

"And what is that?", Axyrn said to him as he looked straight at him.

Say goodbye, as we dance with the devil tonight.

Don't you dare look at him in the eye, as we dance with the devil tonight?

"My throne...I will take your soul and that will allow you to kill me...you can shoose to take it back if you wish after my death and you will be the ruler of hell", the devil told him.

Trembling, crawling across my skin.

Feeling your cold dead eyes, stealing the life of mine.

I believe in you, I can show you that I can see right through all your empty lies.

I won't last long, in this world so wrong.

"I accept...", Axyrn said to the devil.

"Good...", the devil laughed. "Look into my eyes so I can steal your soul."

Axyrn did as the devil instructed.

Say goodbye, as we dance with the devil tonight.

Don't you dare look at him in the eye, as we dance with the devil tonight?

Hold on. Hold on.

A scream was heard as Axyrn felt his soul being ripped out until he stood as nothing but an emotionless shell. He looked up at the devil with black eyes and smiled. He pushed the sword out of his body and grabbed up Suizangoko.

Say goodbye, as we dance with the devil tonight.

The devil looked at Axyrn and for the first time in all his reign, he felt true fear. He realized too late the mistake he made allowing this hurt soul to take his place.

Don't you dare look at him in the eye, as we dance with the devil tonight?

The devil closed his eyes as Axyrn cut him straight through with Suizangoko.

Hold on. Hold on.

Axyrn then descended into hell, took his soul back, and smirked as he looked over his new kingdom of lost souls and demons.

Goodbye.
