It was all going too fast. None of this was in my plans, none. I left the village, hoping that I would never have to return so that there was peace within my home.
But apparently, peace had failed after the leader of another village met me… a demon. Did he do what he did out of anger for what the village had done to me? No… it must have been the power that the village had if they kept me.
If I had stayed in that village from the start… would things have been different? Would everyone be safe? I guess I can dream.
I wonder…
There was blood all over the battlefield. It was a mix between the two opponents who were after one thing. The demon wanted her friend, whereas the trackee wanted the demon.
Blade clashed, sending sparks everywhere due to the levels of strength. Time was limited, but it was being prolonged by the C4 expert.
"You should just give up, un." He shouted, as he threw C4 spiders out towards me. I quickly reached into my pouch then threw out tags onto each spider's head before jumping away. Each spider exploded, sending Deidara flying back.
"You have to hurry… Gaara is fading fast." I grit my teeth. How was I going to save Gaara if this suicidal idiot wouldn't leave me the hell alone? Damn Akatsuki has stubborn issues!
My options were limited. I was still training within the Lightning affinity, so it wasn't strong enough yet for me to use it against him. Water wouldn't do much against him, neither would wind. Those two were my strongest affinities.
I was left with one option. It is an option that I wanted to avoid while within these harsh lands.
I quickly dodged Deidara, throwing my kunai to pin him against a tree. I caught myself on a branch, which I pulled myself up on.
"Kit… are you sure?" I nodded, turning my gaze towards Gaara. "It is the only option I have if I want to be over with this fool. Just… not so much pain…"
"Four." I said, causing Deidara to look up at me with an off look. His eyebrows raised as my body began to glow with a mix of blue flames and red chakra.
I could feel Kyuubi's chakra slowly burning my skin off. It didn't hurt as much as it usually did.
"I see… so the Kyuubi's Jinchuuriki didn't truly die… unless they sealed it within you after the last one, un." I twitched, slowly getting down on all fours as my mind was slowly being absorbed with the hatred that Kyuubi kept bottled up.
"Foxes or Squids?" Kyuubi asked. "Squids." I heard a bang within my head before cursing. "Your control this time." I nodded as Kyuubi's hatred slowly faded from my fuzzy mind.
I bolted off, instantly appearing before Deidara. I used my bloodied fox cloak to grab him and throw him to the ground. I was instantly upon him, sending my claws within his body.
I narrowed my gaze when I realized it was just a clay clone. At hearing bushes move, I turned around to see Deidara hiding under it. I growled lowly, not liking how much of a fool this man was treating Kyuubi and myself.
I slowly began forming a small beast bomb above me, making him raise his brow. After eating the chakra ball, I let it loose in the direction that Deidara was. I could see the shocked expression on his face.
I went to attack him again, to make sure he was dead but was stopped abruptly by Kyuubi shouting that everyone was closing in. I growled, knowing that the change from the four tailed mode to my half-human form was painful.
Kyuubi slowly retracted his chakra, trying to help cause less pain. It didn't work, though, since all skin was burned off by this dark chakra.
I fell down on all fours as Kyuubi finished pulling all his chakra away. I was panting, and my skin was still not fully healed yet. There was nothing I could do though, since I could hear the shouts of my name drawing closer.
"Kit… you need me to heal your skin. You can't move right away, so don't think it!" I shook my head, reaching into my pouch. I pulled out a small vile; which upon it was a small injection need. I stabbed it into my shoulder, injecting it into my bloodstream.
"Akuma!" I turned around to see the worried look within Sakura's glossy eyes. Did she cry? I shook my head, standing up slowly. Just as I was about to fall, I was caught swiftly by Sakura.
"Are you hurt?" She asked, getting ready to check me for injuries. I instantly shook my head, putting my hand on her shoulder as I leaned away from her.
"I'm just exhausted is all… you need to check on Gaara though." She stared at me, as emotions passed through her eyes. She nodded, running over to Gaara.
"You only temporarily healed a part of your skin... Let me heal the rest." I mentally shook my head, as I watched Sakura hold her hands above Gaara as her chakra channeled through his body.
"And why the hell not?" I smiled faintly. "What I injected into my body was a small… 'antidote.' It isn't a fast acting antidote though, but when it wears off I am all yours to heal since the antidote would have taken away the painful healing."
Kyuubi fell silent, but I could tell he was not pleased at all. He knew exactly what was within that vile.
Sakura stood up, lowering her head as she walked past me. I turned my gaze towards Gaara. I was angry now.
Gaara was someone like me… a relic hated by the village we were born in. We were forced into this contract with the demons, never having a choice of our own. What gave these people a right to do such things? Protect the villages? Like hell!
"Akuma…" I turned around swiftly, glaring at everyone as my body slowly glowed with my blue flames. "Shut up!" I hissed out.
Fear… it was present within all of their eyes. They feared the flames, the anger… the demon.
"You people… you people forced us into this cruel world under labels! We never asked to be the container of those beasts!" Chiyo's gaze lowered. She knew that it was people like her that caused people like me the hardships.
"My mother was a Jinchuuriki… I was influenced by that horrible chakra before I even was born! She was forced into being a Jinchuuriki… without any choices. Then I was forced to be the following Jinchuuriki without any of my own choices! Gaara… He… he was forced into being a Jinchuuriki while he was within his mother's womb!"
I moved my arm at a fast pace, to the side, in a fist.
"Where was our choices! Did anyone ever once think what we felt! People only see us as tools… as threats… as demons!"
I stopped shouting when I realized that Chiyo had walked past me. Turning around slowly, I noticed her staring at Gaara as she sat down on her knees.
"Chiyo-sama…?"

Poll is being taken down today and being replaced with a poll for August 18th, for that Saturday Special. From now on I will be doing polls for Special Saturday in which you, the readers, will have a chance at trying to get your favorite story, or the story you want to update, to get updated on Saturday Special. There is a small chance that more than one story will get updated during such times. Votes will be limited to a maximum of two votes (That is for now until I can get my stories into the distance again.) During certain Saturday Specials, what you guys vote for might get updated plus it is possible for a 'special story' to get updated in which no one could have voted for.
Please refer to my profile to put in a vote towards August 18th's Saturday Special update. If you wish to see a choice added onto it, feel free to leave me a message of some sort on either my Deviantart or on here through PM (Or if you want, review, but I don't care for reviews so I prefer if you want something added onto the list to send a message haha)
The poll for August 18th will be placed up at Midnight on the East Coast. (In other words, July 20th I think that would be haha... I said July 19th on whatever story I updated yesterday) That would be at 1 pm on July 20th for Japan, when I should have the poll up by. If it is not up by that point, then expect it during the morning in Eastern time (Night in Japan haha) on the 20th. (Sometimes I'm not home after 1pm so forgive me for that.)
Loves you all, Specially you my stalkers... especially you, I send kisses and hugs to all. Creepy right? Yeah that is so not Daemon like... but I'm doing it anyway because for some reason I am hyper... I don't need sugar to be hyper, I just need to be me apparently. (714PM and I'm typing this... ha... ah I'm going to be putting this up right after I say my ja ne)
Which is like... right now
-Ja ne
