The miners ran out of the shop with Team Gai following them at a distance. They eventually came upon a scene of a group of men in dark cloaks carrying a casket. "Let's go" said Neji
The three of them jumped down and attacked the cloaked men. Neji attacked them with Juken strikes while Tenten and Kira took them out with swords. The last five men jumped back and landed on each other's shoulders. They held out their arms and started spinning. A black tornado formed and started coming towards Team Gai. "I will handle this" said Kira
He took out a scroll and unsealed a grenade. He pulled out the pin and threw it at the tornado. It got sucked into the tornado and blew up when it hit one of the blades. It killed the nearest person and blew the others back. They were then killed by kunai thrown by Tenten. "What was that" asked Neji
"A grenade" said Kira
"It's basically an explosive note that you can throw by itself" he said
Team Gai was about to leave the area when they were hit from behind by lighting knocking them all unconscious. A man wearing a dark cloak with a hunchback and holding two pike like swords jumped down to them. "They aren't worth a funeral" said Raiga
Kira slowly woke up and he saw a hunchbacked man with pike like swords head towards Tenten. A seed exploded in his mind as he slowly got up and drew his swords. But before he could attack he heard a voice shout "Behind you"
Raiga turned around and saw one of kids stand up with two swords out. "Maybe you are worth one after all" said Raiga as he charged forward
Kira brought up his swords and blocked Raiga's initial charge. As Kira began to fight Raiga, he found that something strange was going on. He kept hearing a voice telling Raiga what to do. "That hunchback must hold whoever is telling Raiga what to do" thought Kira
On the next attack Kira let Raiga hit him so he could use Kawarimi to get away. When the smoke cleared all Raiga saw was a rock. "Where is he" shouted Raiga
Kira appeared at the top of the cliff and quickly made a Kage Bunshin. He gave it his swords and it jumped down. Once Kira was sure Raiga was distracted, he unsealed a sniper rifle. He took aim at the hunchback and fired. The bullet flew though the air and went though the top of the hunchback and Raiga's chest. But it didn't damage anything vital on Raiga.
"What was that" thought Raiga
He felt something small quickly enter and exit his body. He then felt a lot of pain as the Kage Bunshin slashed at his hand causing him to drop one of his pike swords. He jumped back while shouting "What didn't you warn me Ranmaru"
But he didn't hear a reply. "Ranmaru" he called
He still didn't hear anything. "RANMARU" he yelled
He still heard nothing. He quickly left the area to find out what happened. Neji and Tenten started to wake up as Raiga left. Kira's Kage Bunshin dispelled itself dropping its swords as Kira came down from the cliff. "What happened" asked Neji as he and Tenten got up
"We were attacked by a hunchbacked man with pike like swords" said Kira pointing to the pike sword on the ground
Tenten let out a gasp as she exclaimed "That's one of Raiga Kurosuki's pike swords"
"So that was him" asked Kira
Tenten nodded as Kira said "I thought he would be stronger than that since I could keep up with him even with his extra help"
"What do you mean by that" asked Neji
"As I was fighting him I kept hearing a voice telling him what to do. I figured that the hunchback must have been a person he was carrying" said Kira
"So I used Kawarimi to get away and sent a Kage Bunshin to keep him busy while I sniped the hunchback" he explained
"Sniped" said Neji confused
"I hit the hunchback with a sniper rifle. A weapon that can shoot a target from a long distance away" said Kira
"Are you sure you got them" asked Neji
"I sure the person he was carrying is dead since he didn't avoid my next attack when I slashed his hand" said Kira
"Which caused him to drop his sword" said Tenten
Kira nodded as he said "But I don't know if I hit anything vital on Raiga or not"
"So what are you going to do with his sword" asked Tenten
"Huh" asked Kira confused
"It's yours since you are the one who made him drop it" said Tenten
"You can have it" said Kira
"Really" asked Tenten
"Sure" said Kira
"Thank you" exclaimed Tenten over and over again giving Kira a hug
She then went over and sealed her new sword away. "Let's return to the shop to plan our next move" said Neji
The other two nodded as Kira picked up his swords and put them away. They all then left the area. But when they got back to the village they were ambushed by the remaining members of the Kurosuki family. The team managed to take care of them by keeping them separated so they couldn't create that black tornado. When there was only one left he tried to run away. But he was taken down by Kira and Tenten with two kunai though the throat. The villagers cheered as Team Gai returned to the curry shop.
When they got there Neji said "We took care of the Kurosuki family but Raiga Kurosuki is still out there"
"That's good" said Sansho
"Did you see my son" she asked
"Your son" asked Kira
"Yes" said Sansho
"He misunderstood what Lee meant by strength and joined the Kurosuki family" she explained
Kira and Tenten stiffened a little as they thought about the one that tried to run away. "No we didn't" said Neji
Sansho nodded and walked away. "Do you think that could have been him" asked Kira whispering
"It doesn't matter now" said Neji
"What are we going to do about Raiga" asked Tenten
"He will probably come after me since I killed his partner" said Kira
"Let's go find him so we can complete our mission" said Neji
They left the shop and started searching for Raiga. But as they were near a cliff they all had to jump back to avoid a lightning bolt. But when Tenten touch back down on the ground, it gave away and she fell off of the cliff. "TENTEN" yelled Kira as he jumped off after her
Raiga appeared saying "That takes care of two of them" while laughing
Kira flew down towards Tenten while taking out a scroll. He spread some of his blood on it and charged some of his chakra into it before throwing it down.
Tenten was trying to figure out a way to save herself when she saw a scroll fly past her. She looked up and saw Kira grab her. "KIRA" yelled Tenten
"What are you doing" she shouted
"Saving you" said Kira
He twisted his body around so he would take the full impact while cradling Tenten.
The scroll neared the bottom of the valley as the Freedom appeared out of the scroll and landed on the valley floor. Kira then landed harshly on the Freedom's shoulder crying out in pain before falling unconscious. "KIRA" yelled Tenten
She quickly checked his vitals and found he was still alive. She breathed a sigh of relief as she jumped down and quickly grabbed the scroll before jumping back up. She punched in the code to open the cockpit and the chair came up. She gently picked up Kira and sat down to go inside. Once inside she gently placed Kira behind the seat and started the start up sequence. "I hope I don't mess this up" thought Tenten
She got the Freedom started up as she took a deep breath and grabbed the controls. "Here goes nothing" thought Tenten
Neji was having a hard time fighting Raiga since he couldn't get close to him because of the constant lightning bolts. The thunderstorm in the area wasn't helping any as it was giving Raiga an infinite amount of lightning to work with.
As Neji jumped back from his latest failed attack he saw a metal angel fly out of the valley. "Is that the machine Kira was talking about" thought Neji
The Freedom fired its beam rifle and vaporized Raiga. It then landed near Neji and the cockpit opened up. Neji was shocked to see Tenten come out holding Kira's unconscious body. "How do you know how to use Kira's machine" asked Neji
"Kira showed me how" said Tenten
"What happened to him" asked Neji
"He caught me and then landed on his machine's shoulder harshly crying out in pain before falling unconscious" said Tenten
"I will check him for any internal injuries" said Neji
Tenten nodded and placed Kira's body on the ground. Neji activated his Byakugan and quickly looked over Kira's body. "There are no internal injuries or broken bones, only bruises" said Neji
Tenten breathed a sigh of relief at that. "Let's head back to the curry shop so he can rest" said Neji
Tenten nodded as she sealed up the Freedom and picked up Kira and they left the area.
Sometime later in the curry shop Kira slowly woke up. "Where am I" asked Kira
"You are at the curry shop" said Neji
"Why did you do it" asked Tenten
"I couldn't let you get hurt" said Kira
"My body can take more punishment than yours can" he said
"Are you saying that because I am girl" shouted Tenten glaring at him
"No, it's because I am a Coordinator" said Kira quickly without thinking
When he realized what he said he thought "Damn it"
"What is a Coordinator" asked Neji
Kira sighed before he said "They are humans that are genetically altered before they are born to basically have enhanced everything"
Tenten's eyes widen as she said "That's why you were surprised I could use your machine"
"Yes" said Kira
"What are you talking about" asked Neji
"There are two OS' used to control machines like mine. One for Naturals and one for Coordinators" explained Kira
"I think Tenten is the only Natural to be able to use a Coordinator OS" he said
Tenten thought for a moment before asking "It that where you got your Sharingan from"
"Yes" said Kira
"Does that mean other Coordinators might have Kekkei Genkai" asked Neji
"No" said Kira
"I'm not your average Coordinator" he said looking away
Once Kira was ready to go, they left the curry shop to return to Konoha. Along the way Kira asked "What happened to Raiga"
"I shot him with the Freedom's beam rifle" said Tenten
"So I guess you didn't get his other sword then" said Kira
"No" said Tenten
They returned to Konoha and went to the Hokage's office. "Mission complete Hokage-sama" said Neji when they went inside
"Very good" said Tsunade
"We were able to eliminate Raiga Kurosuki and his group" said Neji
"Who took out Raiga" asked Tsunade
"I did" said Tenten
"I took out his partner" said Kira
"Very good" said Tsunade
"You are dismissed" she said
"Yes ma'am" said Neji and Kira as they left
But Tenten stayed behind. "What is Tenten" asked Tsunade
"Could you teach me to be a medical-nin" asked Tenten
"Why" asked Tsunade
"I want to help my teammates when they get hurt" said Tenten
"I felt so powerless when Kira got hurt saving me and I couldn't do anything to help him" she said looking down
"Alright then, I will teach you" said Tsunade
"Thank you Tsunade-sama" said Tenten bowing
