Chapter 9: Battle with the Sound part 1
"Come at me if you dare!" The grass ninja leaped back from her snake while it disappeared in a puff of smoke.
"Hmph! If you say so..." Angel jumped towards her with her Sharingan already activated. "Take this!" She threw a round of shuriken at her, but the grass ninja dodged them all.
"Heh... Is that all?" she smirked.
"Do you really think that that's all I can do?" Angel appeared in front of her and began throwing a barrage of punches at her. The grass ninja kept on dodging.
"Oh... Is that all you can do?" She took out a kunai and slashed Angel across the chest. "Your finished..."
Angel looked up and smirked. "Am I really?" She disappeared in a puff of smoke.
"Ah! A clone!?" The grass ninja looked around for a sign of Angel.
"Behind you..." Angel appeared behind her, taking out a kunai and stabbing the ninja in the back, but she disappeared. "You can come out of hiding now!" said Angel.
"Heh... Heh... Alright..." The ninja appeared behind her and grabbed Angel by her neck.
"Let go of me!" Angel tried to take the ninjas hands of her. The ninja touched Angel's curse mark.
"I see... that you have the guardian and curse mark on you. Well... Lets see your demon form..." She took out a kunai.
"N-No! Stop it!" cried Angel.
"To late!" She stabbed the kunai into Angel's curse mark. Angel screamed in pain. "Heh... Well... Now I have no more distractions..." The grass ninja threw Angel against a tree, Angel lied there motionless with the kunai still in her shoulder.
"Angel!" cried Sakura. "Sasuke! Help Angel!" pleaded Sakura. Sasuke just stood there frightened. "Sasuke move!" shouted Sakura.
"R-Right..." Sasuke jumped next to Angel's body. She was breathing heavily and her eyes were a hazy black. "Angel... Come on, get up..." He took the kunai out of her shoulder, but her blood ran down her shoulder.
"S-Sasuke..." Angel called out weakly. "Get away from me..." She grabbed her shoulder and struggled to get up. "Y-You have to get away from me... Hgck!" Angel coughed out blood.
"What are you saying!? We have to get out of here!" Sasuke tried to grab her.
"Argh!" Angel pushed Sasuke away from her and fell to her knees. "J-Just go! Augh!" Her curse mark began spreading across the left side of her body. She screamed in pain.
"Heh... It's almost time..." The grass ninja watched from above.
Suddenly... dark red chakra began surrounding Angel. Her white hair began to turn pure black and her white part of her clothes began to turn dark red. Her eyes turned demon red and her teeth became sharper. She slowly stood up, her head hung down.
"A-Angel?" Sakura called out.
"Heh heh... Sorry little girl, but Angel isn't here," said a darker voice familiar to Risuno.
"Wh-What?" she asked.
"You may know me already as, Risuno..." Risuno brought Angel's right arm up to his mouth and used his tooth to slash her arm, causing the blood to slowly seep out. Risuno began to lick the blood off her arm. "Ah... Angel's blood still tastes as fresh as before... Hm?" He looked at the terrified Sasuke that was only a few trees away from where Angel pushed him. "Heh..." Risuno smirked and jumped next to Sasuke. He sniffed the air. "I see... So your Sasuke Uchiha. Heh... Your blood smells as good as Angel's blood, but for now... I'll spare you and the girl." Sasuke just looked at him.
"Are you getting soft, Risuno?" asked the grass ninja.
Risuno licked the blood off Angel's fingers. "A little... But I won't hold back fighting you... Orochimaru."
He began to laugh. "So... you found out my identity."
Risuno smirked. "It was easy... though Angel doesn't remember. You tried to place your curse mark on her, but what you did caused me to come out... Remember the fight?" he asked.
"Well... It was a very interesting match, but still it was very close..."
"Then this time... There will only be one victor."
"Alright then... Let's begin!" Orochimaru jumped towards Risuno. "Take this! Striking Shadow Snakes!" Snakes began coming out of his sleeve towards Risuno.
"Heh... Still using the same tricks?" Risuno jumped towards him and grabbed the snakes before they reached him. "Nice try... but now its my turn!" He quickly did some hand signs. "Fire Style: Dragon Flame Jutsu!" Fire surrounded him and traveled through the line of snakes towards Orochimaru.
"What!? Argh!" The jutsu engulfed him in flames and blasted him through the forest.
Sasuke watched Risuno in amazement. "That jutsu... It looked bigger than the first time I saw Angel use it. Risuno... I can feel his chakra, he has a great amount of chakra!" Risuno jumped in front of him.
"What the hell are you still doing here!? It's too dangerous here!" he warned. "I can't hold him off forever!"
"What... Why?!" asked Sakura.
Risuno looked up at the trail of flames left behind. "Because... My soul is tied with Angel and with my brother Kosuno. If I put too much stress on her body... We'll die." Sasuke and Sakura's eyes widened.
"No... Angel can't die!" Tears began pouring down Sakura's cheeks.
"And... I have a limit in this form, so grab Naruto and get out of here!" said Risuno.
"Trying to escape? We're still fighting, Risuno!" Orochimaru appeared above them and in a split second he charged down at them.
"Damnit!" Risuno jumped up and some how he grabbed Orochimaru by his arms and threw him back against a tree. He managed to land safely back next to Sasuke. "Now... concentrate!" Risuno shot out his hand and chakra began spiraling and scattering in his hand. In a second his chakra turned in a ball with his chakra scattering from it. "Get ready! Orochimaru!" He jumped towards Orochimaru and appeared in front of him.
"What the!?"
"Take this! Dark Orb!" Risuno dark red orb smashed into Orochimaru, sending him flying into four trees. Orochimaru was covered in dark red flames. Risuno landed back next to Sasuke, but he fell to his knees and began coughing out blood. "Hgck!"
"What's wrong? Sasuke knelled down next to Risuno.
"Heh... Looks like I reached my limit..." Risuno stood up, but staggered a little. "I didn't imagine that even using my Dark Orb would take this much out of me... Extending my chakra with Angel's must have been too much for her body to take. I better return back into Angel before anythings else happens..."
"Well... Risuno, ready to go? I see? You've been the same as the first time we fought... Always trying to save the Katsunuma girl." Orochimaru appeared behind him.
Risuno eyes widened as he slowly turned his head and looked at Orochimaru. "Well... Not sure what to do now, but... I looks like I have to leave." Risuno quickly pushed back Sasuke away. Luckily he was only a few yards away from them.
Orochimaru smirked and quickly grabbed Risuno's arm. "Well... Let me speed that up for you! Five-Pronged Seal!" He jabbed his hand at Angel's curse mark. Risuno screamed in pain. Orochimaru released his arm and Risuno fell back to his knees, but in a few seconds Risuno's chakra surrounded Angel's body and went back into her curse mark. Angel's body returned to normal.
"Hgck!" She coughed out blood and looked up at Orochimaru. "Huff... I guess Risuno didn't finish you off..." Angel slowly got up.
Orochimaru just looked at her, but he gave her a small wicked smile. "His power is amazing... Only if I were able to place my curse seal on you... Oh well... I have no use for you...!" He clenched his fists and threw a punch at Angel, but... "What on earth!?" Angel had stopped his attack by surrounding her arms with earth.
"I still have a bit of fight left in me!" Angel used her free arm and punched him far enough from them. "Huff..." Angel placed her hands on the ground. "Ice!" Ice needles began shooting up from the ground that were heading towards Orochimaru.
"Heh... very good Angel... but still not good enough..." He landed on the point of the needle.
Angel smirked. "Well... Take this!" She lifted her right arm. "Water!" The needle he was on transformed into a water wipe and grabbed his leg. The ice needles turned back into water and traveled around Angel's arm. "Get ready..." Angel threw her arm back, causing the wipe pull Orochimaru towards her. She clenched her left fist, focusing all of her chakra in her hand. In a second... her fist collided with his face and sent him flying back threw a few trees. Angel quickly jumped back next to Sasuke.
"Angel! You did it!" cheered Sakura.
"Huff! Yeah... Now let's get Naruto and- Ugh!" Shivers ran down her spine. Angel slowly looked back. "No..."
Orochimaru appeared behind them."Good job, Angel... but let's see if you have the strength to save your friend!" Orochimaru threw a barrage of kunai's at Sakura.
"No! Sakura!" Angel quickly grabbed a kunai and moved in front of Sakura and began deflecting some of the kunai. But... it was too late. The kunai's pierced Angel's chest... Blood began to drip from her chest.
"Angel...?" called out Sakura.
"Hgck!" Angel coughed out blood before collapsing into Sakura's arms. "Sakura...?" she called out weakly.
"Angel... Please don't go..." Tears began to roll down Sakura's cheeks.
Angel slowly turned her head towards Sasuke. "Sasuke... Ugh! Hgck!" She coughed out more blood.
"Angel..." Sasuke called out.
"Angel! Please don't leave us!" cried Sakura. She held Angel closer to her.
Angel tried to smile, but didn't have enough strength, her eyes turned dark-gray. "I-I'm... sorry..." She slowly closed her eyes.
"Angel...?"
"..."
"Angel? Please..."
"..."
More tears flowed down Sakura's cheeks. "No... Angel! You can't die! No!" She held her closer to her. Sakura slowly turned to Sasuke. "Sasuke...?" Sakura saw Sasuke paralyzed at the sight of Angel's motionless body. "Sasuke! You have to do something! Naruto may be nothing like you... But at least he's got guts! And... Angel! Sh-She's willing to protect us! Angel and Naruto aren't cowards!"
Sasuke tightly closed his eyes, trying hard to block a voice in his head.
"Baby Brother, you're pathetic. If you want to kill me, settle for hating me... Hate me and live... like the coward you are! Clinging to life without honor!"
"No!" Sasuke shot open his eyes and his Sharingan was revealed.
"Heh... Finally the blood of the Uchiha Clan is kicking in..."
Sasuke went through his hip pouch and pulled out a windmill shuriken and a couple of kunai. "I've been living with the hope of one day killing my older brother. I thought it was the most important thing... But maybe I'm the one who's been blind all this time! Naruto... Sakura... Angel...!" He jumped towards Orochimaru and threw his kunai at him, but he slithered along the large tree branch dodging all the kunai's. "Because someone who can't even stand up and do what has to be done at a time like this... Wouldn't stand a chance in a fight against... Him!" Sasuke grabbed the tree to turn himself to face Orochimaru. Then he began throwing his kunai's at him, but he still dodged them.
"Is that all you can do, Sasuke? Hm?" Orochimaru noticed that he was surrounded by wires. "Wires!?"
Sasuke smirked and pulled on the strings of wire to force Orochimaru against the tree behind him. All the wires connected to one wire that Sasuke held in his mouth. He began doing hand-signs. "Fire Style: Dragon Flame Jutsu!" Flames surrounded Sasuke, then traveling down the wire in the form of a dragon and blasting Orochimaru in flames.
"You did it, Sasuke!" cheered Sakura.
"Ugh..." Angel slowly opened her eyes. "Sa-Sakura...?"
"Gasp! Angel! You're alive!" Sakura gave Angel a huge bear hug. Small tears began rolling down her cheeks.
"Ow... Sakura? Ah!" Angel quickly got up. "What happened!? Where's Orochimaru? Ow!" She grabbed her chest.
"Be careful, Angel... You're still hurt from those kunai's. And Sasuke beat that guy!" said Sakura.
Angel's eyes widened. "What!? That's impossible! Orochimaru... What are you planning?" She struggled to get up. "Sakura! Stay here and wait till I call you!"
"Huh? What's wrong, Angel?" asked Sakura.
"Just stay there!" Angel jumped next to Sasuke. "Sasuke!"
Sasuke looked at Angel, amazed that she was still alive. "Angel?"
"We have to- Ugh! I... I can't move my body!" cried Angel.
"We're paralyzed!"
"Ah... Amazing that you're still alive, Angel... Having to use your curse mark, then having it painfully sealed and then getting pierced by kunai's. Heh... but I know your body can take much more than that..." Orochimaru slithered up from the large branch.
Angel shivered in fear.
"Heh heh... It's a shame that I'm unable to place my curse seal on you, Angel... but I'll figure a way over that little problem soon. But for now... Sasuke is the one I'm interested now." Orochimaru's neck extended leading his head towards Sasuke... and in a second, Orochimaru's teeth dug through Sasuke's neck. He released him and his head went back in place. "I look forward to seeing you again, Sasuke... in the quest for power! Oh... and Angel? I also look forward to seeing you... For your power!" Orochimaru sank down into the tree and vanished.
Angel just starred at Orochimaru, until she heard Sasuke scream in pain.
"Wh-What...? Everything... hurts!" Three comma-shaped marks appeared on Sasuke's neck.
"Sa-Sasuke! Wha?" Angel looked at Sasuke's mark. "Oh no! That's the Heaven's Curse Mark!" She grabbed Sasuke's hand and he squeezed hers. "Just hang on, Sasuke!"
Sasuke's screams of pain just kept getting louder.
Angel trembled at the sight of him in pain. She grabbed Sasuke and held him close to her. "Sasuke... I'm sorry. I couldn't do anything to protect you... I wasn't strong enough... I'm sorry..." Angel tried so hard not to cough out blood. She looked down at Sakura, who had tears running down her cheeks. "Sakura! You have to get Naruto! We have to take them to a safe place!" ordered Angel.
Sakura slowly nodded and grabbed Naruto.
"Because... that's the only thing we can do for them now..." Angel picked up Sasuke and lead them all to a safe place... for now.
A few hours later...
Naruto, Angel, and Sasuke lay asleep under a giant tree, while Sakura attended to their wounds.
"Uh..." Sasuke moaned in his sleep.
Sakura removed a damp towel, which was on Sasuke's forehead to check his temperature. "His breathing is improving, but... his fevers still so high! I... I've got to protect them no matter what!" Suddenly Sakura heard someone behind her. She quickly grabbed a kunai and threw it in the direction of the noise. But... it landed in front of a squirrel, terrified the squirrel ran away. "Phew... it was just a squirrel..." Suddenly Sakura heard a low howl, she grabbed another kunai. Sakura was trembling, while she slowly turned her head at Angel. "Oh, Angel! Please wake up! I need you... I'm afraid to do this alone!"
Somewhere in the trees... three shadows watched them.
"Heh heh... There they are! As Lord Orochimaru commanded, we'll strike at dawn! And our target is Sasuke Uchiha!" announced Dosu.
"And... for a bonus, we'll take out Angel Katsunuma!" said Zaku.
"If the other two get in our way, we can take'em out, right?" asked Kin.
Dosu smiled. "Of course! But... for now, we wait..."
Angel's Flashback-
"Hey! Big Brother! Today I become a full fledged ninja today, right!?" asked a cheerful girl.
"Yeah, Angel... Today Father will test you in your elemental control," said a dark gray-haired teen.
"Oh! I can't wait! I'll be able to join with you on mission, Kazune," said Angel.
He smirked. "Uh huh... And do you know what else is happening today?" he asked.
Angel looked confused. "I don't know..."
Kazune's eye twitched and he flicked Angel's forehead. "Man... I can't believe you forgot..."
Angel frowned and rubbed her forehead.
"Oh my! Angel... You've been training so hard for this day that you forgot the most important thing about it," said a long black-haired woman.
"Huh? What do you mean, Mother?" asked Angel.
Their mom and Kazune smiled. "It's your eighth birthday!" they said in unison.
Angel's eyes widened and had a small blush of embarrassment.
Kazune patted her on the head. "Too much training and your mind goes blank... And you're the living example of that," he chuckled.
Her face heated up. "Hey! Stop teasing me!"
Kazune smirked and ruffled her hair a bit. "Alright... Here, Happy Birthday." He dropped a pendant in her hand.
"What's this?" she asked, looking at the pendant. The pendant had one red and blue circle, circling around one yellow circle.
"It's your present... From me and Mother to you. Because sense your becoming a ninja today, you can carry the clans crest with you... to show that you are able to control our bloodlines elements."
Angel smiled. "Thank you... I promise that I'll live up to the Katsunuma family name and become a great ninja!" She tied the pendant around her neck.
They smiled. "Good... Now eat up or you'll be late for training," said their Mother.
"Ah! You're right! Kazune can you wait for me?" she asked, but it was to late. Kazune already left. "Oh! Kazune!" Angel quickly swallowed her breakfast and ran off, but not before running into her Father. "Ow... Ah! I'm sorry, Father! I wasn't looking and-" Before she can continue, her father patted her on her head.
He gave her a small smile. "Its alright... Your becoming a ninja today, and you'll learn a lot through missions and training your body and mind. And... Here, Happy Birthday Angel..." Her Father grabbed a collar from his pocket and tied it around Angel's neck.
Angel touched her collar and hugged her Father. "Thank you, Father... I promise I won't let you today!"
"Good... Now hurry before you miss training with Kazune," he said.
"Ah! Right! Bye Father!" Angel ran off the the training field.
A few hours later...
Angel and Kazune were in the training field. Angel faced the lake, while she preformed the Dragon Flame and Water Dragon Jutsu, but they canceled each other out.
"Come on, Angel! Do it again! Put more fire into it!" Kazune watched Angel train as she tried to combine Fire and Water style.
Angel breathed heavily trying to take in some air. "I'm trying! Its just..." She looked down.
Kazune sighed. "I know this is hard for you, but you have to try... You just have to control the flames and create the water in the air."
"Yeah! But...!"
"Or... You're not leaving until you master it!"
"Gr... Fine!" Angel quickly did some hand-signs.
Kazune smirked. "Good... Hm?" He looked up and saw a messenger hawk pass by. "Well... It looks like I have to go, Angel."
"Huh? Your leaving me here?"
"Yeah... Sorry, just keep working on that combination and come home early tonight, got it?" said Kazune. "See ya, Angel!" He went back to the village.
"Bye! Alright... I need to get this right!" She quickly did hand-signs and repeated the jutsu.
An hour later...
Angel was breathing heavily with steam coming out of her mouth. "Dang it! Why is it so hard!? It's almost dark and I still haven't mastered it!" She was silent for a minute. "Okay... I have to calm down..." Angel put her hands together to form a hand-sign. "I have to focus my chakra and blend it with my Kekkei Genkai... Control the flames and create water in air." She did hand-signs and took in some air. "Fire Style: Dragon Flame Jutsu and Water Style: Water Dragon Jutsu!" Flames surrounded Angel as it formed into a dragon and water formed above her into a dragon. The two dragons spiraled together without canceling themselves out. "Yeah! I did it! Yeah... Oh..." Angel passed out from overuse of her chakra.
Thirty minutes later...
"Hm...? Yawn! What time is it?" Angel looked up at the sky and saw darkness. "Ah! It's already dark!" She got up and ran towards the village. "Kazune's going to kill me for being late! And I really hope Father won't be mad!"
Angel arrived at her clans entrance and felt rain pour. "Huh? Rain? But... this isn't normal rain..." Her eyes widened. "Oh no..." Angel quickly ran to her house, but found the street she was on with blood splattered everywhere with dead bodies. "No... This can't be happening!" She ran through everything, but stopped at the sight of two bodies that she cared about most. "Mother... Father... No..." Angel flew to her knees and coughed out blood. "Why? How... How did this happen!? Ah! Kazune!" Angel got up and ran looking for her brother. "Kazune! Kazune where are you!?" Angel stopped when she heard shuriken hit the walls up ahead. She ran to the next block, but stopped when she saw Kazune's motionless body. "Kazune!" Angel ran to her brother and knelled down next to him. "Kazune! Are you alright!?"
Kazune slowly opened his eyes. "Angel... You have to get out of here..." he said weakly.
Angel shook her head. "No... I'm not leaving without you!"
Kazune slowly shook his head. "No Angel... It's to late for me. Just go... You have to leave before they kill you too..."
"I don't care! I don't want to be alone, Kazune! Hgck!" Angel coughed out a lot of blood.
"Angel... Its too late... All they want is your power so just make this one promise to me..."
She wiped the blood off her mouth and nodded.
"Good... Promise me this... Protect the ones you love and protect their dreams... as well as your own and become stronger for everyone."
Angel grabbed his hand. "I-I promise! I'll protect them so that this won't happen again!"
"Good... Good bye... Angel..." His hand slipped out of her hand and he slowly closed his eyes.
"Kazune... Please don't leave me... I don't want to be alone!" Blood ran down the sides of Angel's mouth. Not hearing the five shadows behind her.
"Heh... Finally the girl shows up..."
"Can't believe that the freak has the demon and guardian inside."
"Yeah... Now lets get her!"
Angel slowly got up and took the kunai that was in Kazune's hand. "You want me? Come and get me!" She stabbed her kunai into her curse mark, causing it to spread all over her body and everything went black.
End of Flashback-
"Ugh!" Angel's eyes shot open and she quickly got up. "That dream... Kazune... I'm sorry I couldn't protect you... But now I have new friends and I'll protect them no matter what! Ow!" Angel looked at her right hand and saw black chakra covering her hand. "Damn... Not again, I wonder what's happening to me? Every time when Risuno uses Dark Orb... black chakra surrounds my arm. I better cover this up, before anyone sees it." Angel grabbed some bandages from her pouch and bandaged up her right hand. "Down..."
"Angel...?"
"Hm?" Angel turned and saw Sakura all tried like she haven't slept in days. "Sa-Sakura!? Are you okay!?" She got up and sat down next to her.
Sakura tucked her hair behind her ear. "Yeah... Don't worry, I'm fine."
"You're not fine... You must've been up all night. You should get some rest, I'll watch over you guys."
Sakura shook her head. "No... I want to stay up! I have to protect you guys, you were the ones that protected me during this exam, so now! I'm going to watch over you guys now!"
Angel smiled. "Alright... Have it your way, but... I'm staying up with you and I don't care who much you protest about it. I'm staying and that's it."
Sakura gave Angel a big smile. "Thank you Angel! Thank you..." They sat together and watched over Naruto and Sasuke.
A couple of hours have passed and Sakura began to dose off, but she shook her head to keep herself awake. "Angel...?" said Sakura.
She looked at her. "Yes, Sakura?"
"C-Can you tell me something interesting... T-To keep me awake," she asked.
Angel nodded. "Fine... I'll talk about my village."
Sakura's eyes widened. "Y-Your village?"
"Yeah... I don't know anything else to tell you, so... here goes." Angel took in a deep breath. "The village I reside in is known as the Village Hidden in the Flames, its true name is Honoogakure. The village resides in the Land of Flares, our Hokage is called the Fureakage, known as Flare Shadow. The village is similar to the Leaf Village, but it has more nature-like landscapes to it sense my grandfather from long ago built the village."
"What!? Your grandfather?" asked Sakura.
"Yeah... His name was Akeno Katsunuma. He was the one who built the village, but it was hard for him and for the villagers."
Sakura looked confused. "What do you mean by that, Angel?"
"Well... didn't they talk about the Great Ninja World War?" asked Angel.
"Um... yeah, they told us about the war in the academy," answered Sakura.
"Well... During that time the village wasn't built yet and other clans along with mine came together, because they wanted no part in the war, but... Everyone was worried about their children or whatever and some people began to riot saying that we should join the war to crash all the villages. Everything turned to chaos and some people were terrified about what would've happened. But my grandfather decided that we should assist some of the clans that were weak and dying out, from there they all agreed. But... there was a problem..."
"What type of problem?" asked Sakura.
"Other clans... wanted the power of the Katsunuma clans Kekkei Genkai," answered Angel.
"Wh-What do you mean by that Angel?" she asked again.
"Clans... like the Uchiha clan wanted our Kekkei Genkai... to crush all the other clans."
"You mean Sasuke's clan! But... Why!?"
"The Uchiha clan and the rest of the clans found out that our bloodline can't be mimicked, copied, or mirrored. Our bloodline could change the earth itself... but they didn't know the consequences on how to control it. It could destroy everything if we weren't careful. So... my grandfather and the rest of our villagers built the village and waited until the war was over. That was one of the smartest things to do sense that was the only thing we could do..." Angel said sadly.
"I see... so the only thing to do was hide, but your grandfather advanced his peoples skills and protected everyone, right?" said Sakura.
"Right... but that's what my father told me, I never lived in the village... I was just born there," said Angel.
"Whys that Angel?" asked Sakura.
"I don't know... They never told me..." answered Angel.
"Oh... ok then, but I have one question."
"I'm listening..."
Sakura looked at her. "How are you able to use all the Kekkei Genkai of the Five Nations?" she asked.
"Well... Truth is, my grandfather made a deal with a man named Madara Uchiha."
"Madara Uchiha?" asked Sakura.
"Yeah... Madara sneaked into my village and was captured by Akeno, though they say the only reason he sneaked into the village was to make a deal."
"A deal?"
"The deal was that he would leave the village if my grandfather tested the reaction of other clans bloodlines. Some people said that it might be dangerous try, but grandfather injected the blood in himself."
"What happened to him?" she asked.
"It didn't take long for it to react to his blood, soon he began to use some of Kekkei Genkai and later on he was able to unlock all the traits..."
"What happened to Madara?"
"He left the village as he promised he would, but... during that time everyone thought that all he wanted to know was if our blood could be similar to the Sharingan, to mimic the traits of all the clans... And soon all of the clan members injected themselves with the blood. And that pretty much explains how I'm able to use all the Kekkei Genkai even though I haven't unlocked them all."
"Wow... That's amazing, Angel! Though... I want to know another thing about you..."
"What is it?" asked Angel.
"How do you know that Orochimaru person?" asked Sakura.
"Uh..."
Angel's Flashback-
"Ow... My arm hurts..." weeped a small girl.
"Angel, you should rest. Those injures you got from the villagers will get infected if you don't heal them," said Kosuno.
"Alright... Kosuno. But! Why did they hurt me? I'm not a monster!" cried Angel.
"It's all because of us... Our curse and guardian marks cause you a lot of pain..." said Risuno.
"It's okay, Risuno... You two are my family now cause you teach me a lot of things and I'm glad you're with me, because I'm not alone."
"Oh is that true child?"
Angel jumped a little from being startled. She looked back and saw a man with long black hair. "Wh-Who are you?" she asked frightened.
"Now now child... Don't be scared, I'm only here to help..." he got closer to her.
She started to tremble. "No! Leave me alone!"
"Heh... Well, my dear child no one can leave you alone sense you have two demons inside you."
Her eyes widened. "H-How did you know that?"
"Ah... dear child, I know everything about you, Angel..."
Angel got scared and tried to run from him, but she tripped on a rock a few feet away. "Who are you? And what do you want?"
He chuckled. "Well... My names Orochimaru and I want... is your power!" His neck grew longer and slithered its way to Angel. His teeth dug threw her neck.
Angel screamed in pain. "Augh! My neck it hurts!" She tried fighting the pain.
"It's useless to fight it, your power will be mine! Hm?" Orochimaru looked at her left shoulder and notice her curse mark spread to the area where he bit he her.
"Augh..." Angel collapsed and next to her a puff of smoke appeared and Risuno stood there beside her.
"It's useless to add another curse mark... Orochimaru!" Risuno turned to Orochimaru, his eyes a blazing red with anger.
"Ah... At least I tried, her power is interesting... Being from the Katsunuma Clan, I could have raised her as my own... Teaching her wonderful new jutsu."
"Shut up... I have had enough of people hurting her and this time... No ones going to stop me!" He charged at him.
"Heh... Please keep me amused, Risuno!"
Moments later... Risuno was on the ground wounded with Orochimaru standing a few feet away also wounded.
"You're very strong, Risuno... I'll allow you to live, but the next time we meet... Please keep me amused with all your wonderful jutsus!" Orochimaru disappeared.
"Damnit..." Risuno looked at Angel's small body. "I'm sorry... Me and Kosuno will have to teach you a lot of things so that you can get stronger and so... that you'll keep your promise to your brother." He slowly stroked her hair and vanished back into her curse.
End of Flashback-
"I'd rather not talk about that..." answered Angel.
"Okay... Well, thanks for keeping me awake, Angel. It really helped," said Sakura.
"Did it really?"
"Ah!" Angel and Sakura looked in front of them and saw the three sound ninja.
"You've been up all night so we've been waiting until you finished your little story," said Dosu.
"Now wake, Sasuke. We want to fight him!" said Zaku.
Angel stood up in front of them. "If you want to reach Sasuke, you have to go through me first!"
Zaku grinned. "Heh... It'll be nice getting rid of you two, Angel. So... Bring it on!" Zaku, Kin, and Dosu jumped towards them.
Angel got in a fighting stance. "Don't worry, Sakura! I'll protect you, Naruto, and Sasuke!"
Sakura smiled. "Thank you... Angel."
"Get ready!"
The sound ninja were in the air, but in a second we're thrown back. "Leaf Hurricane!"
"What!? Who are you?"asked Dosu.
A shinobi wearing a green jumpsuit stood in front of them. "I'm the Leaf Villages Handsome Devil! Rock Lee!"
"What!?" Angel and Sakura, surprised to see a fellow shinobi come to their aid, but will he be able to stop the Sound Ninja!?
To be continued...
Dark: I AM SO... SORRY! This chapter was supposed to come early, but school started and I'm getting killed by homework and projects! I'm sorry!
Naruto: It's okay, Dark! I know how you feel about homework...
Dark: Thanks, Naruto. (hugs)
Sasuke: Wasn't this supposed to be longer?
Dark: Yeah... but I got so much work I had to split this chapter into two parts!
Angel: Don't worry, Dark... Just calm down, kay?
Dark: Kay... Start the disclaimer...
Angel and Sasuke: Dark doesn't own Naruto. She does own Angel, Kosuno, Risuno, Angel's family and her rivals.
Dark: Alright... The second part will come soon, as long as I don't get bombed with homework. That's Deidara's job. But! I'll work hard! Oh and one more thing... I'll be changing the first, second and third chapters to make them better. And another thing... If you have questions about Angel or the story, just leave them on the reviews. I'll answer all the questions! I don't care about the number! Hope to write the next chapter soon!
Angel: R&R!
