"Come on, Jugo! We can't let that overgrown lizard hurt one of our teammates!" Suigetsu yelled, unsnapping the clasp that held his sword to his back. He lunged forward, but one of the dragons held him back.

"Even we dragons cannot stand up to Shin when it comes to his issues with snakes. What could a mere human do to him?"

After taking in what the dragon had said, Suigetsu wondered if his executioner's blade could even put a dent in a dragon's hide.

Rin extended her hand towards Sasuke and materialized a sheathed sword with a star (six point) shaped hilt. "Use it!" she yelled, throwing it to him. As soon as Sasuke touched it, he heard a voice in his head. Call my name.

"What?" Say my name. Say "Hyorinmaru" and pull me out! So Sasuke did as he was told by the voice. He drew the sword and yelled "Hyorinmaru" as loud as he could. There was a sudden burst of cold air and the sword flew out of Sasuke's grasp and lodged itself in the ground.

"Seal release!" Hyorin shouted.

An intricate pattern spread from the hilt to the blade, then across the ground and exploded in a cloud of dust. A figure rose amid the haze and grabbed the hilt of the sword, yanking it out of the ground.

"You look like you're in a bit of a jam. I'm glad you called me," the figure said. The dust cleared and a boy about Sasuke's age emerged with Rin's sword in one hand. He was dressed in a white sleeveless robe and black pants. His eyes matched Hyorin's.

"Who are you?" Sasuke asked.

The boy looked in Sasuke's direction. "Me? I'm Lady Hyorin's sword, Hyorinmaru. You called me here just now, didn't you?"

"What? How…"

"Do you want to waste time asking questions or do you want to get that dragon off Lady Hyorin?" Hyorinmaru asked impatiently.

As Hyorinmaru spoke, Shin pressed his claw down even harder on Hyorin and she coughed up blood. Sasuke's jaw clenched. With her arms pinned down like that, she can't do a thing. "What do you have in mind?"

Hyorinmaru walked over to Sasuke and whispered his plan in his ear. When he was done, Sasuke smiled and drew his own sword. "Let's do it."
