The Impossible

Naruto barely opened his eyes when he heard people speaking around him.

"Is he dead?"

"I don't know."

"Poke him with a stick."

Naruto felt a sharp pain in on the right side of his rib cage.

"Cut it out!" He muttered weakly.

"Oh crap, they are alive."

"Well, this one at least, check for the others. Go get Otome and tell her we have injured folk over here."

"Right away!"

Sasuke opened his eyes to the face of a girl he'd never seen before.

She looked about his age, and was draining water from a white rag before putting it to his forhead.

She rose,"I see you've awaken."

Sasuke was surprised, he'd barely opened his eyes.

He tried to sit up, but felt a sharp pain in his left shoulder and crumbled back down.

She knelt back down,"You shouldn't move; the androids have injured you heavily."

"Who are you?"

She stopped and looked at him; she was very beautiful.

She had dark brown eyes and black hair that fell to the bottom of her back.

She was wearing a white kimono that was red at the sleeves and was wearing sandals.

She had a serious, almost apathetic look on her face as she stared at him.

"Itehi."

"Sit still, I need to mend this bruise." Otome was telling a fidgeting Neji.

Otome had green eyes and shoulder-length brown hair, wearing a hooded white robe.

"What happened?" Sakura said rubbing her head,"One minute we were fighting robots, the next, we're here..."

"It's time again." Otome answered.

"Time for what?" Shikamaru asked.

Otome sighed,"Where should I begin?" she put her hand under her chin, pondering.

"Do you believe in the supernatural?" Itehi asked Sasuke.

"Sometimes."

"Well, you're here because of a tournament."

"What kind of tournament?"

"One for demons; where they must hunt and kill the prey brought to their realm."

"Are we the prey?"

"Yes."

"Why me?"

Itehi smirked and looked down before looking back up.

"I don't know. I'm not even sure why they've picked us."

"Us?"

"Yes, us. Two of my comrades are here, they're scouting the area."

"What's this tournament suppose to be about?"

"Every century, they hold a tournament as a rite of passage for many demons. They gather strong 'prey', but try to keep from getting someone who would be potentially dangerous to them all, which is why they usually target teenagers." Otome said.

"So, what do we do now?" Hinata asked.

Otome smiled,"Don't worry, you guys will be safe with me and my group. We've known that this would happen, so we started training in advance. Right now, they're all outside patrolling the area to make sure no demons sneak up on us."

"Where are we anyway?" Ino asked.

"Well, if you want a blunt and obvious answer, a cave." Otome answered.

They all looked around and noticed the walls and ceilings.

They heard footsteps coming and a shadow on the wall.

They looked to see a boy with short, spiky black hair and fierce green eyes wearing a white, baggy ninja suit walk their way.

"You healed them all? Good work Otome." he said briskly.

"Hi, I'm Jinsoku." He said extending his hand for someone to shake.

That someone of course was Naruto.

"Naruto Uzumaki."

"Well Naruto, how's your evening going so far?" He asked in an attempt to lift the solemn mood.

Sasuke heard footsteps coming and looked towards the entrance.

Two people walked into the cave they were in.

One had long black hair that went to the middle of his back. He had fierce gold eyes and markings on his face. He was wearing an all white kimono with white, baggy pants. Sasuke saw a sword on his right hip.

The guy next to him wore a long, hooded black robe. He also seemed to wearing armor that was spaced apart and black. His skin was brown, and his eyes, to Sasuke's disbelief...was the Mangekyo Sharingan. He wore a black mask that covered the bottom of his face.

Sasuke stared at him as he walked forth, his eyes wide with fear, excitement and confusion.

The guy saw him staring, and said with furrowed eyebrows,"Something I can help you with?"

"Ryoku, he's probably just uncomfortable because you're staring at him." The guy next to him said.

"Sugizou, did you find anything?" Itehi asked.

"Not a demon in sight. I do not think the tournament has started yet." he answered.

Sasuke was soon able to pull his eyes away from Ryoku's.

Impossible! he thought. How could this guy have sharingan, Mangekyo sharingan at that!

"Hey, Ryoku..." Sasuke said.

"What." Ryoku said in a dangerous tone.

"Where did you get the Mangekyo Sharingan?"

Ryoku, Sugizou, and Itehi looked at him with confusion.

"I haven't the slightest idea what you're talking about."

Annoyed, Sasuke revealed his own sharingan.

Their confusion doubled as Itehi and Sugizou looked from Ryoku to Sasuke.

"So, you two both have those eyes." Itehi said.

"You still haven't answered my question." Sasuke said fiercely.

Sensing his anger rising, Ryoku decided to amuse himself,"Your question is pointless to answer. I'm better off ignoring it."

Through his pain, Sasuke unsheathed his sword, charged it, then charged for Ryoku.

Itehi sighed, Sugizou smirked.

There was a flash of light as Sasuke fell back.

He looked back at Ryoku to see him holding the hilt of a sword that glowed red.

"What kind of sword is that?" Sasuke asked, his anger dying down.

"This is my ki sword." Ryoku answered,"I can use either positive, or negative energy to make the blade. Because it is nothing but pure energy, it's virtually unblockable. I'm surprised your sword hasn't snapped yet. Had I increased the energy in the sword I could've cut you in half."

He walked up to Sasuke and held out his hand.

After some hesitation, Sasuke took it.

"There is no time for fighting, we must get moving. If we stay in one place too long, demons will be upon us, and we don't want to be pinned down."
