Kakurezato's Armageddon: Chapter 10: Kyo's Aggression
Mister Grievane walked outside to Kyo and Shikyo and said, "Xioron's ready to git goin'." The old man smiled as Xioron walked outside. Shikyo gave him a hug and Kyo gave him a pound. Xioron had a half-cut shirt on with bandages covering the other part of his chest. Bandages were also around his arms and legs. Shikyo gave Xioron his Okatana back as he grabbed his sheathe as well. He pushed the Okatana into the sheathe. It made a clicking noise as it slipped in. Xioron, Kyo, and Shikyo shook Mister Grievane's hand as they walked out of his clinic back into Shinkugakure. Mister Grievane had told Xioron of a motel in this town and it was free ever since the war had started. The three of them traveled to the motel in Shinkugakure and checked in. They got their room key and they all went to their room on third room. It surprised Xioron that this place even had a third floor considering how blood and gore had been seen in this town over the past few years. The ceiling and walls were covered in grime and dirt so they only thought the rooms would be exactly the same. That was a COMPLETE underestimation of the room's cleanliness.
The room was very clean, the beds were made, and the floors had been polished very nicely. The ceilings and walls were covered in some very nice wallpaper. The bathrooms were also very nice. They were coated in white paint and everything else such as the toilets, sinks, and baths were coated in silver paint. It didn't fit with the rest of the decor but it looked very nice.
The food was also very exquisite. They had American Food, Japanese Food, Indian Food, Spanish Food, and all of the above. They also brought them in solid gold plates with nicely made napkins. They also played beautiful music when they served the food. This place was nicer than any of them expected.
When they were done with the food, Xioron asked several questions about their life but one of the actual questions that sparked Kyo's attention was how Sasuke was with Kyo when he was younger.
"So, Kyo, why did you have so much animosity against Sasuke earlier?" Xioron asked.
"Yeah, why were you guys fighting Sasuke in the first place?" Shikyo asked.
"Actually, it was because I brought him to the shelter and thought that him and Kyo should get back to know each other. But, then, Kyo became angry out of nowhere. Sasuke actually killed Kyo's brothers, Orion, Genkaku, and Genesis." Xioron explained.
"What a jerk! So, what about that, Kyo? We all know that Sasuke destroyed your brothers but you seemed to have extra anger with Sasuke even after that. What else could he have done to anger you so badly?" Shikyo asked, seemingly caught up with the entire story.
"There was this one time… when I was younger… He ordered me to kill someone and he was a powerful leader at the time… Do any of you know, Naruto Uzumaki?" Kyo asked as Xioron and Shikyo shrugged. "He was the Hokage at the time."
"I thought Tsunade was the Hokage recently?" Xioron asked.
"Xioron, how long have you been away from the Leaf?" Kyo asked.
"I don't know. Maybe six or seven years." Xioron answered.
"Well, in those years, Naruto became the Hokage. And, then he stepped down to let Tsunade take over."
"Why'd that happen?" Shikyo asked.
"Well, it was actually because of the incident I'm about to tell you both of. After this happened, he stepped down from the leadership. But, anyway as I was saying… My father wanted me to kill Naruto and I just couldn't… This is how it happened… or rather how I remember it… At this time I was with a girl named, Setsuka…"
~ This part of the chapter was originally written in Soul of Sasuke's Fan Fiction, "The Son". If you have read the story, then this part should feel familiar. ~
"I won't kill him. I won't." Kyo told his dad.
"You dare defy me! YOU'LL PAY FOR YOUR BETRAYAL!" Sasuke yelled. With quick hand seals, he made a Full-Powered Chidori. Kyo looked on in absolute fear as Sasuke ran towards Kyo.
Setsuka looked on. "KYO, MOVE!" Setsuka yelled. Kyo was still with fear and couldn't move. Setsuka did the first thing that came to her mind…. jump in front of Kyo. She disappeared and reappeared in front of Kyo and there was a powerful explosion. When the dust settled, Kyo's eyes widened in shock. Sasuke's hand was completely through Setsuka's chest. Blood was gushing out of her mouth.
"S-Setsuka." Kyo said softly. Sasuke pulled his hand out of Setsuka's chest and she fell into Kyo's arms. She stared blankly at Kyo.
"K-K-Kyo…" Setsuka coughed.
"Why'd you do that?" Kyo asked, holding back his tears.
"You… w-wouldn't move. I ha..had to step in the way." Setsuka replied softly. Setsuka's breathing began to become rigged and hollow as her body's functions slowed to a crawl.
"No! Setsuka!" Kyo cried. He stared at her still, cold face and closed his eyes as the tears flowed from his eyes.
"Hm. One traitor down, another to go." Sasuke said heartlessly. He then made another Full-Powered Chidori. "NOW YOU DIE, KYO!" Sasuke yelled as he ran towards Kyo. Kyo was still on his knees as Sasuke approached. Suddenly, Kyo began to feel something. An emotion. Something stronger than hate and anger. He felt…..love. When Sasuke was only inches from him, Kyo looked up.
"STOP!" He yelled. Surprisingly, everything stopped. Sasuke's attack, the birds flying, everything. Kyo looked around in amazement at what happened. What is this? He thought. He walked around until he saw a puddle. Kyo walked towards the puddle and looked in it. In shock, he saw that his eyes had changed. They were not the normal Sharingan. His eyes were now 8 stretched out thin tomoes that were divided into two parts like a spider's body. Kyo kept looking until he came to an amazing conclusion, it was his Mangekyou Sharingan! He had somehow stopped time with it. I wonder if I could reverse time. THEN I COULD REVERSE BACK SO SETSUKA WOULDN'T DIE! He screamed in his head. "REVERSE!" He yelled. Suddenly time warped backwards and when he saw when Sasuke was racing towards Setsuka in front of the husk of his body he yelled, "CONTINUE!". Time played and Kyo raced to the husk of his body and jumped in. His Mangekyou Sharingan was still activated. When Sasuke was inches away from Setsuka he grabbed her and leaped backwards.
"Kyo, you moved!" Setsuka said in amazement.
"Yeah, and I've got a new move." He said. Kyo grabbed Setsuka and yelled, "STOP!". Everything stopped again. Kyo ran towards Sasuke while Setsuka stood in awe.
"What'd you do, Kyo." Setsuka asked.
"I'll explain later!" Kyo told her. Kyo stared at his still father and sighed. "I'm sorry." He said. He then took out a kunai and drove it into his father's chest. He took another a drove it into his father's throat. And another into his temple. "Continue." He said. When time continued, Sasuke fell violently to the ground. Blood gushed all out his body, and he convulsed violently.
"What's happening?" he slurred.
"Your death." Kyo said simply. Sasuke rolled over onto his back and threw up a pool of blood.
"So….my son. You've done it. You've surpassed me. Good bye." Sasuke said with a small smile at his demise. Then he closed eyes and his breathing stopped. He was dead, gone forever. Konoha was saved. Naruto got up slowly.
"He's gone." Naruto said.
"Yeah. But now, I've got no dad." Kyo told Naruto. Naruto walked over towards Kyo and Setsuka.
"Don't worry." he said as the three walked away.
"And, that was it. I was supposed to become the Hokage after Naruto but then, Tsunade stepped up when Naruto quit. It was very confusing after that." Kyo explained.
"So, what happened to Setsuka?" Shikyo asked.
"She was killed by a pack of ninja… They had ganged up on her and she had no chance by herself." A tear came to Kyo's eyes.
"My condolences, really, Kyo. I had no idea." Xioron patted Kyo's back and Shikyo gave him a hug.
"Thanks, guys. That means a lot." Kyo said as Xioron just realized something.
"Wait a second. If Sasuke died way back when, how did he battle us earlier today?" Xioron asked.
"He must have survived my Jutsu. I don't see how though. That Jutsu was unbeatable." Kyo answered.
"Do you even use that Jutsu anymore?" Shikyo asked.
"No, it's too dangerous. But, on the bright side, when I killed Sasuke that first time, I had obtained the Mangekyo Sharingan! And, it got even stronger when we all beat him the second time!" Kyo shouted happily.
"So, what now?" Shikyo asked.
"I guess we'll just go to sleep for now. We'll need a good rest for tomorrow." Xioron said as he got into one of the beds. There were three, luckily.
Shikyo got in the bed next to the one Kyo was supposed to be sleeping in. Before Xioron went to sleep, Shikyo asked, "Where are we supposed to be going tomorrow anymore, anyway?"
"I want to find this 'Naruto Uzumaki' person. He may be a valuable ally to us." Xioron said as he yawned, turned away from everyone else, and fell asleep.
Kyo kissed Shikyo goodnight before he went to bed and then they both feel asleep.
