Chapter 10

"Alright, Shisui release all of them, but look for the ones that can be saved."

"Misaki-senpai, what do you mean by that, 'the ones that can be saved''? Why can't we save all of them?" Sakura's voice came over the mic filled with concern but also anger.

"Trust me, some of them are already dead, we would be just wasting energy to save them all, they would kill themselves the first chance they could but I will give them; their own way to handle the feat, if they so choose." Misaki looked over to Shisui and nodded to his weapon pouch on his leg. "Leave only a single kunai, those who wish to end it, they will have their own choice in how it's ended."

Shisui looked at her grimly but knew that she was right, and nodded as he reached into his pouch and drew out a single kunai and throw it to the middle of the room known to her as 'Hell'', then went back to his task into freeing all the girls that were in this 'Hell'.'

Misaki watched as the first one that Shisui had released walked over to the kunai and picked it up and was about to drag the steel blade across her thin wrist. Misaki knew what she was about to do and she couldn't blame her, knowing all too well what Toshi was capable of, though she walked up to the young woman; who may have been about her age with her whitish blonde hair if it had been cleaned, though it looked different with the caked blood matted to her scape, and the dirt that covered the rest of the tangled mess of the young woman's hair. Misaki gently laid her hand on the young woman's hand that held the blade, and stilled it. The woman flinched a little but didn't jerk away.

Misaki spoke softly to her, "I will not stop you, if this is what you really want. I too thought about it the first time that bastard captured me and put me through everything he must have put you through and the rest that are here through. But I found that if I did so, then that would've meant that he won. Do you wish for him to win? Is that what you really want, to let him have destroyed you to the point to take your own precious life all because what you and the others and even myself have went through?"

The woman spoke even softer then Misaki had as she answered Misaki's questions, though her voice was empty as much as her appearance was of her pale bony scared body was, "Though I may be alive, I am already dead, you see that is true by just looking at me…" there was a pause as she looked into Misaki's eyes with her own dark emerald eyes that were vacant of any spark of life or a tickle of excitement of being alive. "I know that he will not get away with what he has done, I have watched and heard everything he did to you; you have something that most of us don't. A fiery spirit, disobedience, and someone if not many people to return to and they are the ones that give you strength to carry on. I know I do not…" With that said the woman returned looking at the blade that Misaki still kept in check at her wrist.

Misaki sighed heavy, she knew that she could not save this one, so instead she would give her advice so that she would not have a slow and painful death, as the woman was trying to put herself through. Gently but firmly Misaki guided the kunai to the valley of the woman's breast and placed it at an angle.

"Instead of the wrist, place it here at an angel like I have it and thrust it in at an upwards angle which will drive it into your heart. If you do it slowly, it will only puncher your heart and you'll bleed internally which will be a painful and slow death but, if you do it quickly it will be instantly. I will catch you as you fall and rest your body down and take the kunai out so that if there are any others like you they will soon join you. Please take my advice, I do not think you should suffer anymore then you already have," Misaki had spoken softer then she had before her voice was laced with sadness and regret as she spoke to the young woman.

Misaki barely caught the whisper the young woman spoke, it was but a whisper in the air, "Thank you for your kindness. Please make sure he doesn't have any of your kindness placed upon him."

"I promise you, he will not get any kindness from me or my comrades, especially my boyfriend or the young boy I call my brother or my childhood friends," Misaki said as she nodded in Shisui's direction, the young woman barely turned to look over at him, she then looked up at Misaki again.

"Tell him, thank you for the kindness that he showed us and I now understand why he couldn't help us in the way he wanted to but in the end he is helping by stopping that monster. Let him know that none of what we went through is his fault, he should not shoulder it on himself. Make sure he knows this…," she spoke with her sad empty voice though it was filled with kindness as she spoke to Misaki about Shisui.

Misaki couldn't help but give the young woman a soft gentle smile as she nodded and reassured her that she would fulfill her last request, "I promise you, I will pass on your words to him. I thank you for not being hard on him; he is probably already tearing himself up about everything he couldn't do to help all of you."

The young woman nodded, and took Misaki's advice before Misaki knew what happened the young woman was gone from this world. Misaki caught the cooling lifeless body, and eased it into the smooth shifting sand. She gazed at the lifeless woman; whose spirit left its vessel just moments ago, some of her dirty hair was covering the face of the woman. Misaki reached over and brushed it behind the woman's ear, lifeless eyes starred back at her. Misaki's rage intensified as she closed the eyes of the lifeless woman.

She stood and looked Shisui; he had laid out on the sand some clothing she could wear. She walked over and picked up a pair of pants and a short sleeved shirt that was twice her size. She clothed herself, she grabbed the ends of the shirt and wrapped them around her ribs and tied them under her breast. When she was done she looked back at him; he had longed finished unchaining the women.

"You got an extra pouch?"

He walked up to her as he reached under his trench coat, pulling out from behind his back a short sword that looked much like the ANBU sword that Sai carried. She strapped it around her waist (like a young Kakashi wore during his mission they thought they lost Obito), as she finished adjusting the sword at the small of her back, she saw him hold out one of his leg pouches, she strapped it onto her leg as well. Standing up and trying not to notice a few more lifeless bodies added to the young woman she'd helped.

"Is the outside through any of these walls," She questioned her old friend, though he didn't know some of her techniques, he only knew of her own techniques but not the ones she learned. He cocked an eye brow in question…

"Just answer the question, we are wasting time," letting her irritation lace her voice.

"That one, where you were chained. Why?"

Misaki smirked as she made two Shadow Clones, which looked at her for instructions.

"Break down the wall, and help anyone who wants out of here, out. Take them to the others, when they are safe release yourselves I may need the charka."

"Yeah, right! You opened the seal, you won't need our help, and we'll stay just in case." One of the clones came back at her with sarcasm.

"Fine, stay with them… you are probably right," her voice died off towards the end.

"Misa, what does that mean?" Shisui questioned her, his voice laced with concern.

She glanced at him, and shook her head as she replied, "Don't worry about it, I'll be fine." She looked back at her at her clones, "When you're outside, call Akikaze and the other two. Have them help you protect the survivors."

"You got it."

Misaki looked at Shisui, "You coming?"

"Of course, who else is going to watch your back?" He said with a smile tugging at his lips.

"Just like the old days, huh?"

He nodded, and she smiled before setting off towards the entrance, Shisui right behind her…

They heard the echo of destruction off in the distance, all of them except for Gaara were on Sai's art drawing creations soaring through the sky to get to Misaki the quickest.

"I take it that's where Misaki-senpai is," Sai's unemotional questioned Naruto; who was sitting behind him on the same bird. Naruto only nodded, his intense gaze never leaving the area where he felt his sister was at.

Then they heard a high-pitched whistle, then three howls responded under them. That's when they noticed Misaki's three wolf companions moving swiftly on the uneven forest rocky ground, Gaara lowered himself to the three wolves.

"Hurry to her clones, Misaki saved some of the victims. We will be right behind you."

Kokuei nodded, and then gave out orders to the other two. "Akikaze; you got the right, Fubuki; you go up the middle. Your healing powers will be needed I am sure, while I go to the left and we'll take out anyone who is the closest to the victims. When we get close to our Lady's clones, we'll close in. Understand?"

"Hai," both replied before following the older one's orders, before following them.

All three of the wolves took off in a fast pace, as Gaara and the others followed them from the sky. It only took moments to spot one of Misaki's clones fighting someone as she was protecting the three victims. Kankuro quickly attached charka strings and yanked the guy off his footing enough that Misaki's clone drove a charka enhanced fist into the guy's chest slamming him into the earth, creating a creator under his body. Instant death. They quickly landed, as soon as Kakashi's feet touched the ground he was at Misaki's clone side.

He grazed into sapphire crystal eyes of the clone, she smiled at him as she touched his clothed face.

"She is fine… trust in her, remember?"

"Hai, I remember. Does she need healing?" his voice filled with worry and concern.

The clone shook her head, "Kurama took care of her wounds, and she also has Lady Tsunade's jutsu she taught as well. She will need back up that's for sure, leave a group here with us and got to her and Shisui.

He nodded, just as Naruto approached him and the clone.

"Does she have control over Kurama?"

The clone shook her head, and answered the unspoken question that Naruto was worried about.

"Until today, she has never released the seal that her father placed on her. She is very pissed, and I am worried that the cloak will appear soon…"

Naruto looked worried at the clone as did everyone else…

"How many tails do you think can appear if it does?" Kakashi looked extremely worried about the news and was extremely concerned about how tails could appear in the cloak…

"With the amount of charka she has probably only three, but Kurama would know more because it's his charka. Naruto, if you could talk to him and ask him not to let her lose herself if the cloak does appear."

Naruto nodded, as Kakashi looked at the group, trying to figure out who would stay and who would go.

"Shikamaru, Choji, Ino, Sakura, Temari and Kankuro stay here with the survivors and help guard them. Sakura, if Ino and you could tend their injures as much as you can. Naruto, Sai and Sasuke; you guys take the outer perimeter while Itachi, Gaara and I use the wall entrance Misaki's clone made and go in to back Shisui and Masaki up."

"Kakashi-sensei, shouldn't I go with you? I can sense sis because she has Kurama inside her like me," Naruto voiced his opinion, his voice betrayed him because it was filled with anger just like everyone felt after they looked upon the survivors and Misaki's clones.

The other clone of Misaki spoke to Naruto, "Naruto, listen to Kakashi. Besides the enter part of the compound is mostly of sand, Gaara will be able to sense the original through the sand. Besides I have a feeling that the main battle will end up outside, she'll need a group out here ready to back her up when that happens."

"Then we'll be ready," Sasuke's cold voice answered the clone. "Let's go, we are wasting time."

Naruto looked once more at Kakashi and the clone of Misaki that stood beside his sensei, before he took off with Sai and Sasuke. Kakashi also glanced at the clone before he took off into the compound with Itachi and Gaara following closely behind.

Leaving the rest to guard the survivors, Ino and Sakura immediately went them. Very carefully Sakura approached them; they shied away from her.

"It's alright, you are safe. We aren't going to hurt you. My name is Sakura and this is Ino," she gestured to the blonde kunoichi beside her. "We are medics, all we want to do is heal your wounds, okay? I promise we won't hurt you."

A/N: I want to let everyone know especially after reading this chapter. Yes, during my time when I was put through my own hell, I wished for death. I had thought about it several times but I as my OC stated to the other OC in this chapter. I wasn't going to let the bastard that torture me take my precious life, if I ended my life then I would basically be doing what he wanted me to do. So, I fought and I survived. Now, I still have nightmares and still am dealing with what I went through even though it's been many years ago. I now have a husband that love me and treats me with respect and with so much love, I am truly grateful to him because he loves me for me. And doesn't judge me for what I went through… Anyway, I want to say I do not AGREE WITH SUICIDE! If you know someone who is thinking of Suicide, Please get them to Contact this number:
