^_^
The first match up was Naruto against Neji and Amaya couldn't wait to see what would happen. She was so anxious to the battle, to see how well…or poorly…Naruto does against the Hyuuga genius.
"Nee, Sakura, I know you're worried about Sasuke-kun, but why don't you cheer on Naruto a bit?" Ino says. Amaya looks to the short haired blonde girl sitting next to Sakura.
"Why would she be worried about Sasuke?" Amaya asks.
"I didn't tell you, when Ino and I went to visit him, he wasn't in his room. No one has been able to find him,"
"Ch," Amaya laughs, "Kakai-sensei is training him," Sakura and Ino look at her outrageously. "Nani? No one knew that?"
"Iie!" They both scream, "How did you know that?" Ino asks,
"Kakai-sensei told me."
"Then where are they?" Sakura asks. Amaya shrugs nonchalantly.
"How would I know? I haven't sensei since he left for the preliminaries, and I haven't seen Sasuke since before the exams. Kakashi is probably just getting in some last minute training." Sakura sighs after a moment of hesitation. 'If Amaya isn't worried then there is really no reason I should be' Sakura thinks. Amaya suddenly stands up and shouts, "Go Naruto! Kick his Ass!!"
And soon the battle begins.
"No! Naruto!" Sakura screams as the blonde hair ninja charges right at the Hyuuga genius. Amaya just smacks her forehead. "Could he be any more of an idiot?" she asks no one. Naruto should know that close distance fighting with someone from the Hyuuga clan is most likely the dumbest thing a ninja could do. Amaya knows that this particular clan specialized in blocking the chakra network; Hinata would block hers all the time when they used to train together. Also Naruto should have known this since he saw the battle between Hinata and her cousin Neji. "He can see tenketsu!" Sakura says.
"Come on Naruto! Get you head out of your ass and THINK!" Amaya yells down to the stadium. Naruto creates a few shadow clones and begins to attack Neji. Amaya rolls her eyes.
"Smart move Naruto!" Sakura calls.
"It won't do much, Sakura," Amaya says sitting back down. Sakura looks down at her comrade,
"What do you mean?" The pink haired girl asks, 'why is she being negative?'
"From what Hinata's told me about Neji, this would be cake for him to defend against. Naruto's gotta start thinking outside of the box if he wants to win this battle." Sakura looks back to the stadium, she was right, Naruto was going to have to start thinking outside of the box. Ino laughs,
"I told ya he wasn't going to win!"
"Shut up INO-PIG!" Skaura yells.
Naruto creates more shadow clones, a sea of orange appeared and they started attacking Neji. Suddenly Neji runs through all of the clones and attacks the real Naruto. Amaya groans again. Naruto needs to start thinking. Or course since Naruto has realized that short range fight was out of the question, that he wouldn't fight the older boy, so then Naruto should have realized that Neji would recognize this too. But then the Naruto that Neji attacked, disappears in a puff of smoke. Amaya is immediately to her feet and Sakura soon follows her example. "Attaboy Narutoo!!" Amaya screams. She should give Naruto some more credit. Both of Naruto's teammates continue to cheer on the orange ninja until neji defeats him again with an amazing jutsu.
"What was that?!" Sakura asks.
"I don't know…I think Hinata told me about it once, it's a Hyuuga clan ultimate defense…or something like that…" Amaya explains. Neji uses it again as Naruto attacks.
"I don't understand. I though Naruto's punch hit him." Ino asks. Amaya squints as Neji does his rotation again.
"It…It looks like he's exert…chakra…just pure chakra, like a shield." The dark haired girl comments, not fully comprehending the situation. Then Neji attacks Naruto with a series of finger jabs and it looks as though Naruto is out. "Naruto!!" Sakura and Amaya yell.
"Just as I thought…" Ino groans. Come on Naruto get up! Sakura sits down and her eyes fall to the floor. "Oh Naruto…" she mumbles while Amaya still looks on intently. Naruto begins to stand.
"YES! That's it Naruto! Up on your feet!" Amaya screams, nearly jumping up; she was ecstatic that Naruto was getting up after an attack like that. Sakura looks up, "come on Naruto…" The battle was hard to watch for Sakura and Amaya, to see Naruto getting hurt so badly and still getting back up. Soon Naruto begins to make a hand sign. "What is he doing?" Ino asks, "Neji blocked all of his charka points," The fans watch on.
Amaya gasps. "Yes Naruto!" She can feel some form of chakra leaking out from him and once again the girls are back onto their feet. "Come on Naruto, concentrate!"
Soon the battle begins again with Naruto attacking with much more speed and ferocity than before. After a final attack the arena is covered in dust and no one could see what had happened. Come on Naruto. Once the dust clears, the audience sees two small craters. "Which one is Naruto?!" Sakura asks urgently.
"I don't know!' Ino answers. But Sakura's question was answered when Neji emerged from one of the holes. Neji stumbles to the other hole where Naruto lays. All of a sudden the earth beneath Neji's feet begins to break as Naruto shoots up and punches him square in the jaw.
"Winner, Uzamaki Naruto!" The proctor says. The stadium rejoices. Amaya jumps up into the air! "NARUTO!! YOU'RE AMAZING! WAY TO GO!" Her and Sakura hug in completely glee, so happy for their teammate.
"I can't believe he won!" Amaya and Sakura laugh,
"'Believe it!'" they quote the orange shinobi. Naruto runs around the stadium like the fool he is. "That baka! How does he have enough energy to run around after all that!?" Skaura yells. Amaya just laughs, she was so proud of Naruto, he's come a long way, but he still has much more to learn.
"What's the next match up?" Amaya asks.
"Sasuke-kun and Gaara. Sasuke-kun still hasn't arrived." Ino says. Soon the crowd begins to get unpleasantly boisterous. "Start the next match already!" the begin to scream and yell.
"Ladies and Gentlemen," the proctor says, "an examinee has not yet arrived, so their battle will be delayed. We shall continue on to the next match,"
"Nani!" Sakura and Ino cry out.
"Why the hell is Kakai-sensei taking so long?" Amaya asks, frustrated.
"Well that's still good! Sasuke-kun won't be disqualified!" Ino cheers.
"The next match is Kankuro and Aburame Shino!"
Amaya sits down and crosses her arms. "I swear, Sasuke better make it here in time. I want to see what he's learned from Kakai-sensei." Ino begins to say something when the crowd becomes wilder and more ferocious.
"What's going on?" she asks.
"The sand guy is forfeiting." Someone next to Amaya answers.
"Nani?!" The three girls look on to the field.
"Kankuro has given up, therefore Aburame Shino wins by default." The proctor announces, he didn't seem too happy about this.
"Well this is just disappointing," Amaya huffs. The crowd roars in anger. One of the contestants, the only female one, flies down to the proctor on a giant fan. "So who's the next battle?" She asks leaning back in her seat aggravated.
"Temari and Nara Shikamaru," Sakura says. The crowd throws its trash at Shikamaru as he just lies on the ground after Naruto pushed him over the waiting room railing. "NEE! STOP THROWING TRASH AT MY TEAMATE! COME ON SHIKAMRU! GET UP!" Ino yells. Sakura and Amaya just stare at her. Amaya looks back to the arena and sees Temari attacking Shikamaru before the proctor officially began the match. The Kurohanna girl sits up in her seat with a small smirk on her lips. Temari was quite the aggressor isn't she? Ino stands up and cheers wildly with random kicks and punches.
"Shikamaru! Beat her up with your 16 hit combo!" Amaya looks beyond Ino.
"Chouji," she says smiling at him.
"Oi, Amaya, long time no see. Can I sit with you guys?" he asks while munching on a bag of chips.
"Aa," Amaya says, scooting over as does Sakura and Ino.
"Chouji, your stomach is okay already?" Ino asks, observing the bag of chips.
"Yeap," he sits next to Ino with a bag of snacks. "Wasn't the next match Sasuke's?" Ino quickly shooshes him and looks to Sakura who is sulking by hugging her knees to her chest. "Don't worry Sakura! Everything is fine!" Amaya rolls her ice blue eyes.
"Nee, Sakura, give it a rest already and just enjoy the match, he's fine!" she groans.
Temari attacks Shikamaru who was hiding in the trees' shadows with a wind attack that fills the stadium, blowing everything this was and that. "Come on Shikamaru! Get her!" Ino yells again.
"It's pointless. He'll end up giving up in the end," Chouji states.
"Why's that?" Amaya asks.
"He's lazy,"
"Surely he can't be that lazy,"
"Nope, he is," the fat ninja smiles. Temari keeps blasting her wind jutsu and finally Shikamaru nearly gets her with his Shadow Jutsu.
"Oh Shikamaru that was so close!" Ino says. Amaya looks at the arena as Shikamaru's shadow still holds in place. What is he planning? Then Kunkuro shouts, "Temari! Above you!" Amaya's eyes look above Temari and she smiles and then laughs.
"That was pure genius!"
"What was?" Sakura asks.
"Look" Amaya points to the thing floating down to earth. "It's Shikamaru's jacket and a kunai. He's tied the jacket to the weapon to make a parachute to create another shadow. This way he'll be able to extend his jutsu." And just as she explained, the events occurred, making Temari jump backward rapidly. She plants her fan down in the ground when Shikamaru's Shadow can no longer reach her and she kneels behind it. Amaya studies the field closely and begins laughing again. Shikamaru must have had this planned from the beginning! "Nee! Nee! Ino, Chouji! You guys weren't kidding whenever you would say that Shikamaru is a genius!" She says, her eyes wide with excitement.
"Nani?" The three other genin ask. Amaya just laughs.
"Just watch." And just as she predicted, Shikamaru uses the two holes from the previous battle to trap Temari in his jutsu. Shikamaru begins to walk forward, making Temari do the same.
"THAT"S MY BOY! WAY TO GO SHIKAMRU!!!!" Ino screams. The audience watches fixedly as Shikamaru raises his arm also making Temari raise hers.
"I lose. I give up." He says.
Nobody moves for a short time until Amaya breaks out in laughter. "Chouji you were so right! Shikamaru was going to give up! He is the laziest ninja alive!!" The crowd begins to boo the Nara boy while Amaya continues to laugh. Shikamaru was even more unpredictable than Naruto was!
"Winner, Temari," the proctor says. Amaya stands up and claps while cheering and laughing simultaneously "Bravo Shikamaru! Well done! Well done!"
"What the hell is Naruto doing?!" Sakura yells as Naruto jumps from the waiting area to the arena near Shikamru.
"He's probably yelling at Shikamaru for giving. Naruto hates that."
The crowd begins to roar again, questioning where the Uchiha survivor is. The word is the match is being delayed an additional 10 minutes before they call it. "Ugh!! Where is he??!! Only a few seconds remain!!!" Ino cries out.
"Knowing Kakai-sensei, they will make it here with no time to spare," Amaya comments as she concentrates her chakra. She had learned while training with Kakashi that her Lightening Radar not only works to see surfaces, but she can also predict when someone will use a jutsu of any type. The pressure in the air becomes heavier and different just mere seconds before a jutsu is used. If it is a transportation jutsu for example, Amaya would be able to feel the jutsu about to happen and where the ninja would be teleporting to. She basically sees a disturbance in the atmosphere and can thus predict her next movement. Though, Amaya can only know that jutsu will be a teleporting one since she will see two disturbances in the air; any other justsu she wouldn't be able to know specifically what it is, only that the opponent is about to use one, whether it be gen or ninjutsu.
"About the final match," the proctor calls, "Time is up so…"
"Here they come!" Amaya shouts standing up. A whirlwind of leaves form at the stadium and Kakashi and Sasuke appear. Amaya's eyelids drop in annoyance, "Of course they have to come in a dramatic style,"
Ino and Sakura gasp, "Sasuke-kun!"
"He's made it in time," The four genin in the stands look to their left.
"Lee-san!" Sakura gasps.
"Nee, Gai-sensei, how's it going?" Amaya greats. Gai laughs.
"Not too bad Amaya-chan! Not, too bad!" and he winks.
"You must be Rock Lee," Amaya assumes, looking at the miniature version of Gai, only he was badly hurt and using a crutch to walk.
"Hai," Amaya smiles at him.
"I've heard so much about, from your sensei and Sakura. I wish I could have been at the preliminaries to see with my own eyes how truly amazing you are," Lee blushes.
"You must be Kurohana Amaya. Naruto-kun speaks very highly of you." Amaya shrugs,
"He speaks highly of everyone." Amaya turns in her seat with a glare on her face as her sensei walks down the stadium steps.
"Yo Gai, and Lee-kun, how's your body doing?" He asks.
"Kakai-sensei!" Sakura says with a troubling look.
"Gomen, gomen! You must have been worried. I'm sorry I didn't tell you about this. Anou…" Kakashi glares at Amaya, "I see Amaya's told you her new nickname for me…" Amaya sticks her tongue out at the masked Jonin. Kakashi knew that she was angry with him for holding up the battles by being late. After all, she did specifically tell him not to be late for Sasuke's battle. Sakura looks down.
"I don't care about that anymore…" she says, "Kakai-sensei, there was a bruise on Sasuke's neck before, right?" she asks. Amaya looks to her and her anger disappears. She's worried about Sasuke's curse mark.
"Don't worry about it anymore," Kakashi says. Amaya looks to Sakura as she smiles in reassurance. Then her blue eyes look back to Kakashi as he looks around. Amaya follows his gaze and she sees the ninja in cloaks. His eyes narrow. 'Eight ANBU members in this huge stadium. Two platoons isn't enough to cover this area. What is Hokage-sama thinking?' Kakashi ponders.
After following Kakashi's gaze Amaya counts up the number of ANBU here and then looks back to her sensei. "Kakai-sensei," she calls him in a low voice and a serious look in her eyes. Something about the ANBU was bothering him, but she didn't know what it was. Kakashi looks to her with a blank look of alertness.
"Aa," he replies in the same tone.
Sakura looks from Kakashi to Amaya then back to Kakashi as the two stare at each other. How could the two, over a period of 5 days, learn to communicate wordlessly? What did they do while training to make them so in sync?
Amaya nods to Kakashi with a quick movement of her head. I need to be on guard. She says to herself. Something wasn't right. Out of the corner of her eye she notices Sakura staring at her with concerned eyes. "Nee, what's with Sasuke's new outfit?" Amaya asks smirking. "It's so lame!" Kakashi smiles at her.
"You're just jealous that you aren't as special as you think. You're not the only one I got a new outfit for."
"Ch, as if," Amaya crosses her arms and faces forward.
"Are you kidding me Amaya!? Sasuke-kun's clothes are so cool!!!" Ino yells,
"Sure, sure," Amaya waves her off as the match begins. Now, Sasuke, let's see what you've learned.
Sasuke attacks Gaara with a series of shuriken, but they were all blocked by Gaara's sand shield. Sasuke gets within punching range of Gaara when his shield of sand comes between them, then suddenly Sasuke disappears and reappears behind the red headed shinobi. He's gotten so much faster, faster than me. Sasuke sends Gaara flying with a solid punch to the jaw. Sasuke runs around Gaara's shield and gets him with a kick this time. Amaya's eyes go wide as she clenches her fists. Sugoi ne, he's become so much faster in a month!
"Kakashi-sensei!!!" Naruto yells from behind the group.
"What is it, Naruto?" Kakashi asks, as they all stare at Naruto and Shikamaru.
"Sensei! You must stop this match now!" Naruto yells.
"Naruto, nanda?" Amaya asks, "Great win by the way," she adds with a smile. Naruto laughs and grins.
"Arigato Amaya-chan. But, Gaara, he's totally different from us, he's not normal!"
"Naruto," Ino growls, "what are you talking about?"
"He lives to kill people, anyway at this rate Sasuke's going to die!" he shouts. Amaya's eyes flicker to Kakashi's face, to see him perfectly calm with this information and he looks back to Sasuke.
"Don't worry," the silver haired man says when closing his eye.
"You seem to be saying that a lot sensei," Amaya says with an arched eyebrow. "People tend to increase their worrying the more someone tells them not to worry," Kakashi looks at her and she sees his lips beneath his mask twitch; her eyes narrow in suspicion.
"We were late for a reason." Amaya looks back to Sasuke to see him attacking the sand ball Gaara created around himself.
"Sensei," Sakura calls for Kakashi's attention. "What do you mean you were late for a reason?"
"Hmm, do you want to know?" he asks slyly.
"GAH! We don't have time for that!" Naruto yells and stamps his feet.
"Shut up and watch him then," Kakashi says. "You'll wet your pants,"
Amaya's eyes widen and her mouth drops when she hears Kakashi say this. Sasuke does a few back handsprings to distance himself from Gaara. Amaya slowly turns to Kakashi as he keeps looking to Sasuke. That was exactly what he said to her.
"There's this jutsu I want to show you. I don't know if you will be able to do it though since it's an incomplete jutsu and it is dangerous, but since your kekkei genkai is Raikou, your chakra is elementally based with electricity. So you might be able to do it." He says standing before her in the field.
"What is it?" Amaya asks with her hand on her hip.
"It's my only original jutsu, and when you see it, I know you'll wet your pants," he smirks at her.
"Sasuke learned it?" She asks, completely bewildered. Kakashi smirks at her,
"Aa," Amaya looks back to Sasuke as he climbs up the wall of the stadium then looks back to Kakashi.
"This is what you meant by 'only certain people would be able to do it' it's because you and Sasuke have the Sharingan." Amaya says, still shocked. "The Sharingan isn't affected by its tunnel vision." She states rather than asks.
"Aa," Kakashi says again.
"What are you guys talking about??" Ino whines. Amaya's head whips around and looks back to Sasuke as she can feel the electricity building in his hand. Kakashi thought that Amaya would be able to perform the Chidori since she can control lightening and her eyes would be used to the affect lightening has but this wasn't the case.
"I supervised Sasuke's training, because he is similar to me," Kakashi says.
"How so?" Sakura asks.
"They both have Lightening based chakras." Amaya says.
"I see," Gai says, "That's why you had him master hand-to-hand combat moves so that he could dramatically increase his speed."
"Sugoi nee! I can see his chakra clearly with my eyes," Sakura says. "How can this be?" Everyone watches as Sasuke uses the Chidori on Gaara's sand ball. "It's making a lot of noise, what is that move?"
"Just a straight thrust," Gai says. "But it's Konoha's number one technique specialist's The Copy Ninja Kakashi's only original move." He announces, "It's a secret move used for assassination purposes. It's secret lies in the speed of the thrust and the activation of the body to create large amounts of chakra, then he concentrates the chakra to the thrusting arm and because of the incredible speed he is moving at, it emits a distinct chirping noise similar to a thousand birds chirping. That's why the move is called the Chidori." The crowd gasps collectively as Sasuke's Chidori penetrates Gaara's shield.
"That is the reason I wasn't able to learn it," Amaya says.
"Nani? Kakashi sensei tried to teach it to you?" Naruto asks.
"Hai. He thought since I was able to control lightening naturally, by eyes would be used to the tunnel vision it causes."
"What do you mean?" Sakura asks.
"The Chidori for some reason tunnels the user's vision, which means they can only see a small amount that is directly in from of them, they wouldn't be able to see anything around them. The Sharingan solves this problem since it is an advanced eye technique."
"So since you do not have the Sharingan, you are not capable of using the Chidori?" Lee asks.
"Iie. I can create the Chidori just fine, but I get the tunnel vision."
"But wouldn't your eyes be used to it or immune to the vision since you use lightening?" Gai asks.
"Aa, if the Chidori was just that, lightening. Then my eyes would be just fine. But since it's not, my eyes aren't. The Chidori is pure Chakra being held in the palm of the hand, it's not pure lightening. It's so unstable that it looks like it is lightening, and also having elemental based chakra of lightening, adds to the affect." Amaya explains, still watching Sasuke. "It's also called Raikiri,"
"Raikiri?" Sakura asks but Amaya doesn't answer. Kakashi peels his eye away from Sasuke and looks to his other dark haired student. After realizing that she wouldn't be able to use Chidori hurt her deeply. One of her goals in life is master every single technique that involves any form of electricity, so when she learned she wasn't able to use this, it upset her.
"That's the alias it took because Kakashi once cut through lightening with that move," Gai explains. "The arm that uses the Chidori turns into a sword and cut through anything. "But you've taught him a reckless move," Gai says to Kakashi. Kakashi moves his eye to Gai with a small glare.
"I don't want to hear that from you," he bends over to Lee, "Right? Lee-kun?"
"Sounds fake to me," Ino mumbles to Sakura and Amaya.
"Iie, Ino, it is true. I can control lightening, pure lightening and I have seen him cut through it with the Raikiri (Lightening Edge). Anyone you see who is not in the Kurohana clan and uses lightening, is using lightening powered by chakra which is significantly weaker than pure lightening…."
"But I thought you said that he cut through the lightening," Ino says
"Aa, this is the Chidori, it is pure Chakra that just looks like lightening, pure chakra is more powerful that pure lightening. But there are always some cases where this isn't true, certain circumstances and all that," Amaya explains, still staring at Sasuke. When she found out that she wouldn't be able to use it, she decided that she would create a lightening jutsu that is more powerful than the Chidori and one that would destroy it.
"I don't really understand the logic, but it's an incredible move!" Sakura exclaims.
Sasuke pulls away from the boulder, holding his shoulder as the sand melts away from Gaara.
"He got him!" Ino yells as they all see Gaara's bleeding shoulder.
Suddenly, Amaya gets extremely tired as she sees feathers around her. Her eyelids begin to droop. "Nee, Sakura," she pats Sakura's leg, "A little help?" and Sakura dispels the Genjutsu. Amaya smiles at Sakura, "Looks like I still suck pretty badly at Genjutsu and it appears you are still amazing. Some things haven't changes I suppose" Sakura smiles but it soon disappears as they look around.
"What's going on?" She asks. There is a loud explosion coming from where the Hokage and the Kazekage were seated. "What the…" Amaya says standing up, looking at the black smoke. The ANBU around begin to move in the direction of the Hokage. Everyone that is awake watches as the Hokage and the Kazekage emerge from the smoke and onto the higher roofing. The Kazekage has a kunai to the Hokage's throat. A giant purple box is formed around them.
"A field creation technique?" Gai questions,
"They are not normal ninja," Kakashi answers him, "they have out maneuvered the ANBU. Kakashi and Gai go to go to the Hokage when a member of the ANBU stands in their way at the base of the stair case.
"What are you doing? Hokage-sama is in danger!" Gai shouts. Members of the audience then emerge by the stray ANBU's side; they are from the sound village.
"What a bummer," Kakashi says.
"I didn't expect the enemy to be disguised as a member of the ANBU." Gai admits. If this is an attack on the Hokage and the Leaf Village…
Amaya looks out of the stadium towards the walls of the village. She uses Lightening Radar to see if anything was happening. She gasps when she sees them and she turns to her sensei. "Kakai-sensei! The village is being attacked! Three giant snakes were just summoned on the west wall of the village!" Amaya points in the direction as smoke appears.
"We were careless," Gai growls as he looks in the direction of the purple box. "Kakashi, look inside the field, its…"
"Orochimaru!" Gai, Kakashi, and Amaya say at once.
"Sasuke-kun!" Amaya looks in the direction of the arena. "Where is he?" Amaya scans hard, using the Radar, it was much harder finding Sasuke in the village full of commotion and moving things. Picking out one person it much harder in a populated place rather than the forest.
"Shimatta!" Amaya curses, "He's going after Gaara!" Sakura gasps and Amaya looks up to see two sound ninja in the air, ready to attack them. Amaya takes out a kunai and pushes Sakura to the ground. Her view is obstructed by navy blue and the shinobi were killed.
"Sakura, Amaya!" Kakashi smiles while looking at the two kunoichi upside down and through his legs. Amaya narrows her eyes at him.
"Ch, I could have handled them you know," she mumbles and pouts.
"Hai, Hai, but the two of you, stay there for a moment, I'm going to decrease the amount of enemy," and he jumps off.
"Matta! I can help!" Amaya yells wanting to follow but she obeys what he ordered. She groans and kneels next to Sakura who is still covering her head. Amaya rolls her eyes, how she is a shinobi, I'll never know. Before long Kakashi comes back to them.
"Sakura! I'm glad I taught you about illusionary techniques during survival training, you have a talent in that area." He says, "Dispel the illusionary technique and wake up Shikamaru and Naruto. Naruto will rejoice. It's his first A-ranked mission in a long time,"
"Mission?" Sakura asks. What do you mean? What are we supposed to do?!" Sakura asks as Kakashi kills another enemy.
"Just as Amaya said, Sasuke went after Gaara and the other two Sand ninja with him, you must go after him and stop him," Kakashi then summons two dogs, a small pug and a larger husky looking mutt type.
"So are you coming with us?" Sakura asks.
"Iie, I mustn't leave this place. That is what Pakkun here is for, he will help you track down Sasuke." Amaya narrows her eyes. Kakashi never mentioned her name, and with Pakkun, Shikamaru, and Naruto going with Sakura, that would make a four man platoon and not to mention that he has summoned another hound. "OK Sakura, go dispel the technique from the others."
"H-Hai, oh! What about Amaya?" Amaya looks at Kakashi and Kakashi looks over his shoulder at her. He knew this was going to kill her. Her eyes told him that she already, relatively, knew what was going to happen. She was sadden and heart broken by it.
"I have a different mission for Amaya,"
