Lvmj: "DarkLvmj and I worked hard on this one."
The Comedy Fox
Chapter Twelve: Sorrows and Death
The Sixth Act: Sorrows
I stumbled slightly, acting out as if the poison in me was affecting my motor skills. The bastards stopped and actually allowed me to 'regain' my posture.
"Are you alright, ANBU-san?" one of the Masks asked me. I could practically hear the smugness in his fucking voice.
"I am, let's continue," I said, making my voice harsh and scratchy. They seemed to buy it as they walked on, keeping pace with me. It was soon I saw large iron gates that seemed to separate the rest of the village from this spot.
My eyes quickly scanned the layout as I entered the gates. There was a small plain and a large tower in the middle of it. This must be where the fucker of a leader lives. The gates closed behind me noisily and I hear a faint locking system going into place.
Shit, now I sense multiple chakra signatures surrounding the gates. This is quickly becoming a fucked up situation!
I started to think of what may happen if my theory on being singled out is correct. Either I will have to fight my way through hoards of ninjas or hide.
Now I've never been one to hide, but I don't think I can survive facing all these ninjas. I do think though I can take them on one on one, but in terms of 'Quality vs. Quantity" in this situation, Quantity will definitely win.
It was then that I had a rush of memories.
---------------------change--------------------------
As soon as Boss and I went our separate paths, I began to think on the situation.
One: Something was entirely fucked up in this village. Besides the poverty I guess and the tons of guards, there is something wrong here.
Two: That I, that is Boss, and Long Hair may be in danger here. There are too many signs not to think about this.
And Three:.............well, haven't seen that one yet, but best make a third spot just in case something else happens.
I was still following Long Hair closely when we stopped by a large iron gate. Why would they have a gate in the village? I don't know, kind of suspicious if you ask me.
As we started to walk to the tower, I started to feel uneasy about this. There was something...off about the tower. Something was evil lurking there.
"Lin-san, stay here until further orders," one of the Masks said to Long Hair as they all entered the tower. Another strange event is that they left her all alone.
I knew it was a risk, but I needed to talk to her.
"Oi, Long Hair," I whispered out to the side of her. She jumped slightly but thankfully schooled her emotions.
"Comedy Fox, you shouldn't have come here! You are in grave danger!" Long Hair half yelled and whispered back to me.
"I'm a Clone. Besides, I'm sure boss knows by now that something is up with this fucking village." Long Hair breathed a sigh of relief on knowing I was a Clone. But.....I know she knows something. Something important that involves Boss.
Before I could ask her, the door opened and a Mask beckoned her inside. I was right behind her and crept to the shadows. Although I still had the genjutsu around me, I didn't want to take the off chance that it would fail on me.
That's when I heard it. Screams, coming from beneath the very floor I crept on. What the fuck is going on here!? Long Hair was also very disturbed from the look on her face.
Before I knew it, we were in a large room. On some type of throne sat a man in the shadows. He signaled the Masks to leave and they disappeared in a flash.
"Ah, Lin-chan, how much I have missed you. Tell me, how did the mission go?" the man said playfully to Long Hair. She appeared agitated by how her hands kept on clenching together.
"I have lured Comedy Fox instead of Hatake into the village on your orders," Long Hair.....said....what?
So Boss as been set up. Fuck, by Long Hair of all people!
But wait.....she hasn't rat me out in the room. Is she trying to give Boss a warning?
"I see, great job Lin-chan!" the fucker said, clapping his pale hands together.
"I have done what you asked of me, where is my sister?!" Long Hair has a sister? I see, so he's holding her sister as a hostage.
"Back at my base, Lin-chan. She was very happy that I rescued her from her abusive father. Why don't you come and join her?"
"Never! I know your sick games you bastard! I know you are behind these terrible experiments, I won't join you!" Long Hair....she is very defiant.
"Then Kin-chan will be very sad," the man said before a long metal sword suddenly erupted from what seemed his mouth towards her. Acting quickly, I shunshined in front of her and blocked the weird sword with my ninjatos.
"Comedy Fox!" Long Hair exclaimed, but I know she was just feigning it so this bastard doesn't know I am a Clone. The Sword suddenly slithered back to its sheath....whatever the fuck it is. From here, it looked like the fucker swallowed it.
"So you are the famous Comedy Fox....so young, yet so powerful! I cannot get over my excitement in meeting you!" the...sicko? Yeah, going with sicko. Anyway, the fucking sicko said with obvious enjoyment.
But the next thing I knew was hearing Long Hair gasp in pain and push against my back before a sword protrude out of my chest.
"C-Comedy F-F-Fox," Long Hair said. I could feel her blood seep down by back.
The shadowed man in front of me began to break apart and dissolved into patchest of mud.
"You....fucker!" I managed to breath out.
"Don't worry, Comedy Fox-kun, you won't die," I heard that fucking sicko of a fucking bastard behind me.
I didn't bother on coming back with a remark as I addressed Long Hair. "Don't worry Long Hair, I'll be back." With that, I dispelled myself.
-----------------------change-----------------------------------
Breaking out of my act, I unsheathed both ninjatos from my back and slashed as quickly as I could in a circle. The enemy Masks didn't know until too late as they fell in two around me.
I didn't care of their screaming their last breath. I didn't care of the numerous chakra signs gathering behind me. I didn't even fucking care that I will die soon after this. All I did care was if Long Hair was alright as I rushed towards the door to the tower.
Quickly assuming it is locked, I placed my ninjatos underneath my arms and summoned a special bunshin and sent it running towards the door.
Once the Clone was near enough, it jumped and formed a hand sign.
"Bunshin Daibakuha!" the Clone yelled as it exploded, blasting a huge chunk of the front wall of the tower down.
I jumped through the gaping hole and ran towards the room where my Clone had dispelled itself, and to where Long Hair is alright.
With my ninjatos drawn once more, I entered the room in a defensive stance.
"Long Hair!" the fucker was gone but Long Hair was still here. I sheathed my blades and ran over to Long Hair. Kneeling down, I rolled her on her side. She cried out in pain, but I had to check her injury.
Her lung has been punctured, her spine severed, extensive bleeding and internal bleeding....all in one upward thrust. I started shaking with furry and....sorrow. She won't.....
"Comedy...Fox-kun. You didn't lie," Long Hair said to me as she motioned me with her hands to help her up. No doubt she knew of her state as she couldn't move her legs and her breathing was getting harder and harder.
"Of course not, I said I'll be back, and I don't lie to friends." Friend...yes, she is my friend, my first non-Mask friend.
Her arms wrapped around me with what little strength she had left.
"I....I need you to promise me something," she said painfully. I simply nodded. Long Hair smiled and reached up towards my Mask.
I didn't bother stopping her as she took of my Mask. Her brown eyes looked into my glistening blue eyes as tears streamed down my grim face. She dropped my Mask and rested her hand on my head.
"Promise me.....one day.....rescue my sister, Tsuchi Kin," Long Hair said as her hand ran down my face, over my three whisker like scars. I supported her with one hand and took hold of the hand that was falling down.
"I, Comedy Mask, promise, Long Hair....no, not that name. I, Uzumaki Naruto, promise Tsuchi Lin that I will rescue your sister, Tsuchi Kin." The grip of my hand on hers tightened as I said those words. Her smile brightened as she closed her eyes.
"Thank...you....Naruto....."
I didn't know how long I stayed there, holding Lin's dead body to me. By now my legs and lower torso were drenched in her blood and I felt a shiver rush through me because of it.
I made two Kage Bunshin that were fully Masked, one to guard and one to carry Lin. One Clone gently took her away from me with two hands, one under her knees and one under her back.
I stand up, retrieving my Mask and firmly putting it on. Slowly, we all began to walk out, my free Clone having his ninjatos out and I taking point.
Light soon hit all of us as we stepped outside. Hundreds of ninja were facing us in the plain, separating us from the iron and village gate.
"Lin....this is for you," I said, my hands forming one seal before they all started to rush at me.
"Taju Kage Bunshin no jutsu!" Let the fucking battle begin.
Lvmj: "I hope you enjoyed this, worked hard on this one. Did you catch the clues of the "Acts" leading to this moment? Hope you did. Leave a review to tell me what you think."
