The shell on her body finally started to crack and soon she would be free, good, I wanted answers before... before what exactly? Was I supposed to kill her one more time and everything would finally be put to rest or was I supposed to let her be this time so as to not repeat this whole mess again?

I could see the outline of the her body, it was only a matter of time before she awoke again but I had yet to come to a decision.

"Sasuke, I think, before things get out of hand that I should probably," he shook his head, "what a drag, let's just get this over with." For the first time my best friend spoke vaguely, it was understandable as this would be a big risk, we might finally die because of this, and yet we both knew neither of us would give up until we finally understood all of this. "... Stop time." We heard a small mutter, The Enchantress had finally awaken. Her movements were sluggish, almost playful.

"...S." She began.

"S?"

"St.ve" She blinked as if she had been in slumber this whole time, which was annoying, I almost put my knife to her throat but Shikamaru grabbed my arm and shook his head.

"Starved." Her belly growled loud enough for us to hear, "Oh, hey Shikamaru." She smiled, until she saw me.
