Chapter Ten

This story is no longer just for Naruto characters. Random characters from other shows will be popping up, and the only ones that are mine are Kiki and the dead people.

When he landed, silver hair brushed her face before a blast of flames came flying toward them. She blocked it with her mind, causing her eyes to glow quickly. Suddenly, a hand grabbed her chin and forced her to gaze directly at Sesshomaru. (for easier reference, he shall be called Sessho!!!)

She laughed as he released her and she stood beside him. Reaching into one of her belt pouches, she took her necklace with her divine symbol and placed it around her neck. Its power flew forth for a split second before it became dormant once more.

You take Kisame, but watch his sword. It's more like a razor than a blade, Kiki mind-spoke to Sessho. I'm going after Itachi!

Just don't kill yourself. I'll help you then if you need it. When she laughed, he knew that she wasn't going to take him seriously, so he launched at Kisame, his claws dripping poison. Kisame blocked, but the poison tore at his flesh, leaving burns on his arms.

Kiki and Itachi stood facing each other, her reptilian eyes staring into his bright red eyes. She gripped the hilts of her swords, and in a blinding flash, Suncry erupted from within her. Her flaming spirit landed beside Kiki as the swords were removed from the sheaths. Kiki's eyes were slightly blue, her hair floating in the air.

"Kiki, since my spirit is within you, your dragonstorm is now more powerful. I believe Diamondflame showed you the basics, but now it is complete. Try it out," commented Suncry joyfully. She knew the effects of the newly perfected storm.

Smirking, Kiki brought the blades to the beginning positions. Sessho released the unconscious Kisame from his grasp and stood beside the dragon spirit. The blades took on a new feel, becoming heated in her hands. Suncry's tail was between Sessho and the blades to protect him from the attack.

Kiki twisted the blades around her, a spiral forming in her mind's eye. The flames grew taller as she spun faster still. Coming to a halt, she joined the blades, making one blade, longer and more powerful. Taking the blade through a sweeping arc, she sent the spiral towards Itachi, the blade transforming the spiral into many dragons spiraling together.

The force of the impact sent Itachi flying backwards, landing next to Kisame. She was wondering whether or not to tie them up when Kakashi and his team came into the clearing. Sasuke looked from Itachi to Kiki, who was sheathing the blades. He looked back at Itachi, and his left eye started twitching ferociously. Kiki smiled weakly before Suncry wrapped her spirit around her.

Suddenly, Kiki collapsed inside of the spirit, engulfed by the tremendous power. Her arms were changing, and she was holding them in her hands, the pain from using her swords catching up to her.

"Why didn't you tell me about this little pleasure trip?" she croaked at Suncry, barely able to keep the pain from her voice.

"I forgot about that side effect. Now then, I'm off to see my daughter and my sister. I'll be back inside you later."

Kiki grimaced as Suncry disappeared before Kakashi walked over and grabbed one of her arms. She yelped as he examined the arm, and he looked at her puzzlingly.

"My bone structure is changing to that of a dragon since I am now harboring the spirit of one. Wait, when did you guys get here?!"

He laughed as Sessho came over to examine the other arm. Sessho prodded it and she bit her lip to prevent from crying out again. "I would love it if you would stop that, it hurts!"

They looked at her before Sessho hugged her, stood up, and left to return to his world. She stood up, stretched, and asked Kakashi what he was going to do.

"We take them in, of course. I'll grab Kisame."

"I'll take Itachi then," Sasuke suggested.

"Sorry Sasu, but I'll take him. I don't trust him enough to let you carry him, especially after what he did to you. His gaze does not affect me, so therefore, I'm the safest escort back to Konoha that we have here." she stated, picking up Itachi, "Everybody, let's move out!"

She raced through the trees, ignoring the protest of her arms until they lost the pain altogether. Well that's good news, she thought, racing toward the wall that held Konoha. Kakashi flew over the wall, quickly followed by Kiki, who was flanked by the three genin. They dashed through the maze of streets and stopped when they found Tsunade, accompanied by Jiraiya. Their eyes flew wide with shock as they saw who Kiki and Kakashi were holding.

"Well call me a baby and slap me twice- I didn't mean that literally!!!!!" he yelled at Naruto, who was laughing his guts out with Sasuke.

Itachi stirred, and Kiki tightened her grip as he opened his eyes to glare at her. Her eyes, still reptilian, narrowed to small slits as he looked at her. His hand grabbed her wrist and, moving a fraction of an inch higher, clasped around her arm bones. The morphing bones screamed in pain as he applied pressure, and her eyes were filled with that pain.

She turned her arm into an inferno, and muttered, "Sleep," with a magical force behind it. Itachi's eyes closed, and he fell into a haunting slumber, his grip loosening and his hand falling again. She sighed, and gave Itachi to Jiraiya before resting against the wall. Sasuke walked over to his brother and glared at his sleeping form. Kakashi placed his hand on Sasuke's shoulder before Sasuke walked away from his brother.

"So, you got him did you?" Tsunade cooed.

"Yeah, and I got turned into a dragon as a bargain."

"Oh?" she took one of Kiki's arms and looked at the bone structure. She glanced up at Kiki, "Strange. Why don't you go to Sessho's world and ask him about it?"

"Okay, I'll be back later this week then. I'll see you all later!!"

Kakashi passed Kisame to Jiraiya and Kiki hugged everyone goodbye in turn, until she got to Jiraiya. To him she just said, "Good bye." Smiling, she disappeared, heading to the world where Sessho resided.
