Chapter 8 Duel, Sharingan vs Byakugan

As Gage made his way closer to Anko, his mind raced with all the ideas he had to kill her. He was practically drooling over all the ways he thought of.

"Maybe I should do it fast! Or Maybe……slow and as painful as possible! Heh heh, or maybe….."

Gage's thoughts were cut short as the unconscious Anko quickly flipped backwards off the floor and held out her right sleeve.

"Senai Jashuu!"

Quickly three snakes came out of her sleeve and dove at Gage. One bit down into his right shoulder, another in the left shoulder, and the final bit down on his right eye. Gage yelled in intense pain as he felt the snake bite into his eye. He began shaking violently trying to shake them off.

"It appears he needs assistance Kenji."

Kenji sighed and began casually walking towards the fight. Just as he began to pull his headband off his eye he felt someone force his arm back down. He looked to the right and saw Shizune who was still thrown over Tashi's shoulder holding his arm down. She smirked as she saw the surprised look in his face.

"Go Ton-Ton!"

She yelled, quickly the little pig who had been watching the entire ordeal ran forward and dove head first into Kenji's crotch effectively disabling the sound ninja. Kenji yelled as he place his hands over his sensitive area and fell to his knees trying to down the immense pain he felt.

Tashi was about to react when Shizune jumped off of her and spat something out of her mouth. It was a purple liquid that hit Tashi right in the face. She screamed as she instantly felt her eyes burning from the unknown liquid. She despratly tried to wipe it off.

"W-WHAT IS THIS!?"

Shizune smirked at her own handy work.

"Think of it as a liquefied pepper bomb. Being in this form, it will blind you and burn more effectively then it's powder form."

Tashi kept trying to wipe her face clean despite hearing that she wouldn't be able to. Anko smirked as she saw this. Without Kakshi knowing, she had been teaching Shizune some dirty moves to use in combat. This was one of her favorites. She loved seeing the poor fool squirm under there power. She turned her attention back to Gage who for some reason stopped trying to get out of her snake's grasp.

"Finally given up?"

Gage began to laugh and so did the others.

"You think were this weak?"

Gage's body suddenly began to grow. He grunted as he began to try and pull apart the restraining jacket he wore. His left eye grew wide as in one quick motion he broke out of the restraints that had been place on him. He wore no shirt of any kind. Just a tribal necklace around his neck, his entire body was built like a tank. Gage with no problem at all brought both his arms up and grabbed all the snakes that had bitten into him. He ripped all three off his body leaving the fangs in his shoulder's and eye. With a firm grip on all the snakes he tugged them hard and brought Anko up to him.

He eyes grew wide as she was practically thrown towards him. She saw him bring one of his massive fist back and ram it right into her gutt. She literally felt her entire stomach, organs and all cave in. She quickly fell to her knees and threw up. The blow had felt like she was hit close range with a cannon ball.

It was at this time that Shizune was going to step in when she felt a fist fly right into her face. She fell backwards and hit her back against the nearest wall. She looked up and saw it was Tashi who had hit her.

"Huh!? But how!?"

Tashi still had her face covered in the pepper bomb. Her emotionless face didn't falter.

"I thought a medical ninja would have seen right away."

She pointed to her eyes and Shizune didn't know why she didn't see sooner. Her eyes were completely pale. She was blind! Tashi quickly backed away sensing something. She motioned her head to Shizune that someone was behind her.

Shizune turned around just to see Kenji finishing his hand signs.

"Kokuangyou no jutsu!"

Shizune's eyes widened. She knew exactly what this move was. One of the Second Hokage's signature Jutsu's. She quickly looked around her and saw nothing but darkness. She knew what it meant. She suddenly felt several blows hit her face. Each one hurt more then the last. She fell to her knees and held up her arms trying to make some means of defense. But it was useless. She knew that it was hopeless to defend while trapped in this jutsu.

"How did they learn such a powerful technique?"

She said aloud. Kenji laughed as he punched her again in the face knocking her over. She laid in the middle of the darkness wincing as she felt him kicking her face and ribs. She knew she had one chance and only hoped that Anko would know what she was doing.

'Concentrate! Summon the poison into your lungs and……'

Before she could finish Kenji ran up and grabbed Shizune by the neck. He smirked knowing full well what she was trying to do.

"Heh, your little poison tricks aren't going to help you this time!"

With one swift punch to her gut Shizune finally passed out. Kenji smirked as she lost consciousness. He flung her over his shoulder and dispelled his jutsu. He looked at Tashi and nodded.

"Let's get out of here."

On the other side of the room Gage had Anko curled up on the floor as he was mercilessly punching and kicking her. Her entire face was covered in her own blood and she looked like she was about to die.

"Gage! That's enough. We need someone to tell the Hokage who took his beloved away."

Tashi said in a stern, strict voice. Gage turned to her and sighed. He gave Anko one last kick in the ribs savoring the sound of her yelling in pain. He laughed as he turned towards his comrades and disappeared.

"D-damn them…….."

Anko said just as she lost consciousness.

On the other side of the village, Sasuke was quickly and silently making his way towards the Hyuuga Mansion. He had a very sour look in his face.

'Why the hell do I have to do this!? I should be going after Naruto! Not kidnapping one of the weakest Shinobi in the village.'

It was true, in his eyes Hinata was always physically weak. But he saw that she was at least strong in spirit and heart. That much was known to him. But a lot of good it was going to do her when he got his hands on her.

As he arrived he silently perched himself in the shadows of the mansion. He was at the back of the mansion itself. He looked down and saw Hinata alone training herself. Saskue sat back for a second and watched her. She was practicing her palm strikes on a wooden dummy. He could tell by the hand prints left on the dummy that she had gotten somewhat stronger.

'Well well…….this might be interesting after all.'

Performing several hand sings Sasuke brought his fingers to his lips and took a deep breath.

"Goukakyuu no Jutsu!"

A large fireball shot out of Saskue's mouth and went straight for Hinata. Said Hyuuga quickly turned around and saw the attack coming towards her. She quickly activated her Byakugan and stood in her fighting stance.

"EIGHT TRIGRAM 64 PALM!"

With great speed and agility Hinata quickly began moving her hands all around her. As the fireball approached she moved her hand faster. It collided with her and she winced as she kept up her defense. Needless to say Sasuke was more then impressed. She was literally breaking through his attack.

'Looks like I underestimated her. This might be a challenge after all.'

Hinata finally got through the giant fireball Sasuke had fired at her. She glared daggers at him.

"Uchiha…….Why did you come here? Why did you try to kill me just now?"

Sasuke was even more impressed she was talking in complete sentences without stuttering. She had changed over the years. He figured it would be better to get on equal ground with her. He jumped from the roof and landed several feet away from her.

"I'm not trying to kill you. I have bigger plans for you."

Hinata kept her glare on him. Truth be told, she always sort of resented Sasuke, not because of his attitude or anything but how he treated Naruto. But of course she would never say she hated him.

"For Orochimaru?"

Sasuke simply nodded. He then slowly pulled out his katana. Hinata braced herself, if he was going to use a weapon like that she would really be in trouble. Imagine her surprise when Sasuke threw the blade aside and untied the sheathe from his body.

"W-what are you doing?"

Sasuke smirked at this, he was able to get her to stutter again.

"Well……I figure since were both part of the two strongest clans of this village, we should fight without the use of weapons like that."

Sasuke shut his eyes and opened them revealing his activated Sharingan. Hinata was a bit surprised that he was not only using his Sharingan against her a fellow Lead Ninja, but that he was doing so with some sort of honor.

"Lets go."

He said standing in his typical battle stance. Hinata nodded and refocused herself.

'Maybe Orochimaru hasn't really gotten to him. Maybe if I beat him I can bring him back to the village. Just like Naruto wanted.'

Her day dreaming was cut off by Saskue appearing in front of her and round housing her in the face. Hinata's fell backwards from the blow. Sasuke smirked at the advantage he got over her. Hinata got back to her feat and glared at him. She brought her arm up and quickly wiped the blood coming from her busted lip.

'I can do this. I will beat him. I'm not weak any more.'

Hinata charged at him and began attacking with a flurry of palm strikes. Sasuke knew better then to block them. If he did, he knew damn well his chakra lines would be cut and that was something he had to avoid at all cost. Thankfully his Sharingan helped him see past her movements allowing him to avoid her attacks more easily. However it gave him no chance to fight back.

'Damnit, I can't see an opening. She's attacking so fast even with the Sharingan I can't counter her!'

Just after Sasuke dodged another strike aimed at his gut he was completely taken off guard by her next. She aimed directly at his left knee cap. Taken back by the sudden change in targets Sasuke had no way of evading the on coming attack. Hinata's palm struck Sasuke hard almost shattering his knee in the process. Sasuke winced in pain as he kneeled down taking his weight off his left side. It was then he realized what he did.

'She made me lower myself to attack my face!'

Hinata shot him a quick grin as she brought her palm back and prepared to strike.

'I DID IT!'

Sasuke had to think quickly. He couldn't block and evading was out of the question since he was one leg down. He winced knowing what to do and how badly it was going to hurt.

As the strike came at him Sasuke leaned backwards as far as he could literally seeing the strike just inches away from his face. He then shifted his weight onto his left side and felt like his leg would break.

'This has to do it!'

Sasuke brought his right leg in and using all his might kicked Hinata right under her chin sending her flying upward into the air.

"NOW!"

He yelled as he jumped into the air after her. He appeared right behind her as she flew upward. He shut his eyes and concentrated. In a small whisper he spoke.

"I'm sorry."

Sasuke proceeded to spin her in mid air and attack with several hard and well placed blows. Several hitting her in the face. He then flipped around her and slammed his right ankle into her gut as they fell.

"LION BARRAGE!"

Hinata screamed in pain as the final blow hit. She even spat up some blood as well. After the last blow Sasuke quickly rolled away from her not knowing if she was still able to fight. As he stood he quickly began to limp simply from standing. He was covered in sweat and he hated to admit it but he had enjoyed himself. Not because it was part of Orochimaru's plan, but overall, he had never fought this much with Taijutsu.

He saw Hinata squirm on the floor trying to get herself back up. But hew could tell she had reached her limit for now at least. He slowly limped towards her and stood over her.

"Got to hand it to you. You gave me a run for my money."

Hinata looked up and the final thing she saw before she passed out…….was Sasuke smiling. Not an evil smile like Orochimaru had……..but what she thought was a pure smile.

'Sasuke…..'

I think Im getting better at fighting and cliff hangers don't you? Well the plot has thickened. Now that Shizune and Hinata have been captured what is Orochimaru planning for Kakashi? Can't wait for the next chapter can you?
