Author's note: i must say that this chapter is quite lengthy and wordy. this story is coming to an end :'(
"Innooo!" her cousin Satomi ran up and hugged her as she entered through the door. Satomi is about Ino's height and has a Dutch boy haircut. Like Ino, shehas baby blue eyes. When Ino was little, she used to come here every now and then with her mother and would play with Satomi and with two other cousins, Sayuri and Kimiko. But now, they all have their own families.
"I haven't seen you in a while!" Ino exclaimed.
"I know! I can here as soon as I heard that you're coming here in Iwagakure. How long are you going to stay here?"
Ino paused to think, "Maybe for about a week or two."
"Hmm…okay then."
Ino, Satomi, and Natsumi, Ino's mother, went inside and sat on the couch.
"So how's Madoka?" Madoka is Satomi's only daughter.
"Oh she's doing fine, you know how teenagers are." Satomi giggled.
"Man, I miss being sixteen sometimes." Ino said with nostalgia.
"Well if you ladies don't mind, I'm going to talk with your uncle and get the scrolls prepared." Natsumi rose from the couch and disappeared as she turned around a corner.
"I'm going to take a shower and go to bed if you don't mind. The trip here really wore me out." Ino told Satomi.
"Oh, sure thing I know you must be tired. I'll come back here tomorrow." Both Ino and Satomi hugged each other and then she left.
Ino walked upstairs, to the guest bedroom and unpacked. After her shower she went straight to bed.
A week later
Satomi, Sayuri, Kimiko and Ino were sitting by the garden, watching the koi fish swim in the little pond.
"It's been a long time since we were all together." Kimiko commented.
"I know." Sayuri acknowledged.
"So how is Sasuke and the kids?" Sayuri asked Ino.
"Oh, he's fine and so are the kids. They really are growing up."
"I know what you mean." Satomi smiled.
"Ino! Can you come here for a second?" Her mother called from within the house.
"Sure." She responded. "I'll be back soon." She told her cousins.
She got up from her position and walked towards the kitchen, guessing that her mother was there.
"Hey uncle," She said as she hugged him.
"Wow, look at how beautiful you become." Her grandfather commented.
"Thanks uncle." She smiled at him.
"So, Ino, tonight we are going to extract Makikyo from your body."
"Really? Wait, who's we?" Ino asked her mother, confused.
"Satomi and the others are going to actually help us." She said with a smile.
Ino's eyes slightly widened, "Wait, they know about her?" Ino whispered to her mother.
"Haha, yes they do. They used to be ninjas, like you, so they know how to control chakra and do jutsus."
"Oh, okay."
That evening
Ino, Satomi, and the other were deep in a forest.
"Is everyone ready?" Kimiko asked the small group of people. Kimiko, Satomi, and Sayuri were in a medium sized circle, sitting and Ino was in the center, sitting Indian-style. Around Ino was a bunch of Japanese writings circling her. In front of Satomi, Sayuri, And Kimiko as a long scroll that reached to them to Ino.
"We're ready." Sayuri answered.
"Then let's go it now." Kimiko told them.
"Right." They all bit their thumbs and weaved a couple hand signs and then said "Ninja art: Demon release!" and slammed their hands onto the scroll. Then, the Japanese characters started to glow and soon she was surrounded by the light. Suddenly she started to feel this pain, as if she was being ripped apart. She tried to stand up, but the pain was too immense.
"This pain…it's unbearable!" She thought to herself.
"She's almost out!" Satomi shouted to Ino. "Just bear with it for a little longer."
Makikyo was almost out of Ino's body, but a huge explosion went off just a few feet away from them.
"What the hell!" Kimiko shouted. Their jutsu failing because of it. "Who's there?"
"Ino, are you okay?" Satomi called out.
Ino could see her lips moving, but couldn't hear her. "What?" Ino shouted. "I can't hear you." She was scared if her hearing was gone permanently, but remained calm.
"Satomi, get Ino and take her home!" Sayuri commanded her.
She then ran to Ino, but a ninja appeared in between her and Ino. She quickly took out a kunai.
"Who are you?" she asked the unknown male ninja.
"My name is Shinya. We're worked for Orochimaru, and we're here to get our demon back." The man in between them had royal purple shoulder length hair with dark, cold eyes. He wore a black trench coat with pants and boots. On his hands, he also had black gloves.
"Even when we get the demon out of her, we're not going to let you have her and use her as a weapon." Satomi said angrily.
"We'll get her, one way or another." Shinya stated. He then gave a signal and the rest of his group came out of the bushes. About fifteen other ninjas appeared.
"We're out numbered!" Kimiko shouted.
"Well, we're going to have to defeat every ninja if we want to live, or else we'll be the ones getting killed." Satomi responded.
As Satomi and Kimiko were talking, Ino tried to recover from the blast. Slowly, she got up from the ground. Her hearing was coming back to her. "Why is this demon so…valuable to you guys?" She asked to man in front of her.
"Hn, because we're going to need her for future projects." He said with a smirk. He then whistled to his group. Some men that were surrounding Sayuri and Kimiko were now around Ino. She then decided it would be smart if she should change into Makikyo. Her clothes transformed into the demon's and a scythe appeared in her hands.
"So she finally appears." Shinya said. "Get her." His men got closer to Ino.
"This is gonna be fun!" Makikyo said through Ino's body. She went up to one of the ninjas, and the two of them started to fight. The rest were in their own fight. One by one, the number of ninjas decreased. Soon, they were a dead.
Ino turned to face Shinya, "Is that all?" she was lightly panting.
"Ha, I must say, you are quite strong. But not stronger than me." He stated with an evil smirk. He then took out his katana.
"Fire style: Power amplification!" he shouted out. This katana then grew longer and was now as thick as a cleaver. It was also covered in blazing flames. "Let's play."
Ino and Shinya ran towards each other, clashing weapons. The force throwing each out back, they threw shurikens at each other. She again ran to him; she swung her scythe from side to side. Shinya blocked every swing and found an opening and kicked her in her stomach. The impact pushed her back a few feet. Then without control she made some hand signs, "Nature Style: Nature's Wrath." The ground beneath them started to shake, then vines full of thorns broke through the ground as crashed like a wave onto Shinya. But he quickly dodged them but little did he know that they would follow him. He tried to out run them but one snaked around his ankle and spun him around in the air and the slammed him into the ground, created a large crater. Not done, the vines grabbed him again by his arms, legs, and throat and brought him to Ino.
"I thought you were going to be tougher. But I guess I was wrong." She stated directly to him. The vines and thorns began to tighten around his throat and made him bleed. Before he ran out of breathe, he muttered, "Fire Style: Fire Vortex." Fire blasted from his body and spun around him burning the vines attached to his body. As he fell, Ino jumped up to attack him. Shinya flipped his body upwards. They exchanged a few punches but Shinya kicked her to the ground. She did a backflip to recover from the fall. Then once again, their swords clashed. But suddenly, he disappeared. Then, from above, he came with his sword, trying to kill her. She quickly dodged to surprise attack, but he disappeared once again, but this time he cut her back. She sucked air through her teeth because of the pain. Surprised, she turned around, but he wasn't there.
"That's a nasty cut you got there." Makikyo commented.
"Yeah, tell me something I don't know." She said rolling her eyes. The blood was starting to soak her shirt.
"Don't worry; I'm going to start the urgent healing now. By the way, you might not look your age."
"Okay, thanks." The long cut on her back started to heal, and her hair grew longer and her face looked younger. Her face looked as if she was sixteen.
"Fire Style: Meteorite Shower." Ino immediately looked up and saw fire balls falling from the sky.
"He's in a tree. You're going to have to fly!" Makikyo quickly told Ino.
"What? Fly? How?" Suddenly, she felt something coming out of her back.
"What the-"Then, black wings shot from out of her back.
"You're going to have to trust me!" She quickly took over Ino's body and jumped up in the sky, dodging all of the flaming meteorites.
"I can sense his chakra." Within minutes she found where he was located in the forest. A few feet away, she threw her scythe. He swiftly ducked. With amazing speed, thanks to Makikyo, she ran up to him and punched him in the gut. The punch sent him flying through a couple of trees. She jumped down from the branch she was on and went to see if was still alive. She carefully approached him. From his appearance he looked dead.
"Ninja Art: Constructing Chains." Chains came out of his coat and wrapped around her. Ino tried to jump back, but was caught by the chains. Shinya got up from the broken tree. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
"I'm afraid this fight is over. It was fun while it lasted." Then, the chains started to absorb her chakra.
"I…I have to find a way to get out of these chains." She thought to herself. She tried to pull on the chains and break them, but nothing seemed to work.
"Ino, you have to get out of these chains, fast!" Makikyo said frantically.
"I tried…but I can't." She started to black out, "they're...too strong…..I'm sorry." She then fainted due to chakra loss.
