Axel had blue chakra surrounding her, and all Vladdy could do is stare helplessly.
Hidan took this chance to take a swing at her, but Neji stopped him. "We're leaving." And they took the chance escape.
"I'm going to kill you right here. Right now, once and for all!" Axel screamed, crushing Raidon's throat with her hand.
Her eyes were a glowing white; her seal now had black swirls surrounding it. She growled, and pressed harder.
Suddenly there was a chuckle from the choking monster in front of her. Axel growled again.
"You pathetic thing." Cathrina muttered. "You can't kill me!" and she kicked Axel backward.
Axel's eyes narrowed, "We'll see about that!" and suddenly a giant cat was formed from her bleeding chakra. It gathered a giant fireball in its mouth a forced it toward Cathrina.
Cathrina dodged, and formed a glowing green ball in her hand. "Cero!"
Axel dodged, and used shunpo, appearing in Cathrina's face, and knocking her backward 20 yards.
"N-no…" Vladdy murmured, and started to run towards the two, "Stop!" She cried. Suddenly, Neji was blocking her path. He grabbed her arms.
"What are you doing?! We have to stop them their going to kill each other! You trader, this is all you fault!" She screamed, struggling.
"I'm sorry." Neji said softly, taping her on the head, causing her entire body to limp.
He picked her up, and carried her a distance away, carefully laying her down. Then he disappeared.
Vladdy laid there, unable to moving, just watching her best friend and sensei destroying each other.
Cathrina staggered back up. "You brat, I know you! And I know you will never have the strength to kill someone like me!" She threw her arms out, Snakes emerging from her sleeves. One raped around Axel's waist, the other around her throat, choking her.
Axel struggled, trying to catch her breath. She formed the best ninja scalpel she could and sliced the throats of the snakes. "Arushio-ne no jutsu!" A spinning sphere of chakra toward Cathrina, whom instead of moving, took a deep breath, and absorbed it in through her mouth.
"What?!" Axel gasped.
A moment later, the power was shot back at Axel 10 fold.
"Santen Kessh, I reject!" Axel yelled, and a shield was instantly in front of her, barley blocking the blow.
Cathrina smiled. "You've grown."
"Don't you dare flatter me!"
Axel used shunpo to disappear into the brush. Suddenly, Cathrina's mind was overtaken.
Disturbance? Please.Cathrina could feel Axel reaching for a kunai, to slit her throat, but Cathrina let her chakra power bleed from her. All of her evil came out with it. Axel was returned to her own body.
Damn it Axel thought.
Now Axel and Cathrina were staring each other down, when suddenly, Cathrina charged, taking a punch. Axel blocked her. A smug look appeared on Cathrina's face and Axel struggled to get away quickly but couldn't.
"White Lightning."
Axel fell back, grabbing her bleeding arm. The cat reappeared behind Axel. Axel pulled a scroll from her pouch, laid it on the ground and did a series of hand signs. Suddenly, she became one with the Cat, almost like Kiba and Akamaru.
It pounced at Cathrina, whom dodged. A fire ball came from at her back, and Cathrina couldn't avoid it. The flames burned much of her body; though it wasn't enough to finish her. She had lived for hundreds of years; she wasn't going to be taken down by a mere child. "Mangekyo sharingan."
Suddenly Axel felt sick. She felt her body being pulled from the body of her summon. The world around her became inverted; there was blood and killing everywhere. She felt her body being stabbed over and over, and she screamed over and over again.
But had to be someway…She focused her chakra, and reality came back to her. Her body felt weak after the experience and she staggered. She didn't think she could re use her seal without draining her chakra and completely killing herself.
She slowly unwrapped the tape from her arms, and used shunpo. Cathrina's body was enclosed quickly. "Arushio-ne!" Axel yelled, directly hitting Cathrina in the back.
Blood was everywhere. Cathrina screamed, clutching her chest. "Damn you little brat."
Axel threw a punch, but it was blocked. Cathrina grabbed her arm and threw her. Axel landed smoothly on her feet, and ran again, jumping in the air, and slicing into Cathrina's shoulder. Cathrina went for a blow to the face, but stopped."A-axel…" Raidon strained for control.
Axel gasped.
"Get a-away…I-I'm so-r-rry."
"Get outta here!" Cathrina screamed, "Cero!" She pointed straight at Axel's heart; Axel: who was still overwhelmed by her sensei's words.
Blood sprayed from Axel's mouth, and she fell to the ground.
Cathrina was going to deliver another blow, but instead fainted, and slowly faded back to Raidon."
Vladdy held her hand out, "A-axel" she started to crawl on her elbows, getting her movement back.
Neji appeared in between the two badly wounded kunoichi, a started to bend over to Axel, when Vladdy's surprisingly close voice screamed. "DON'T TOUCH HER YOU BASTARD!" She started to get up slowly, and then eventually struggled with all her might run.
Neji's lips moved, but Vladdy could not hear, the only thing she heard was the faint sound of Axel's dying heart getting closer as she ran.
Neji picked up Raidon and disappeared into the brush.
Vladdy fell to her knees at Axel's side, and laid Axel's shoulders in her lap. "You can't die on me!"
