Recap:

I guess he really does remember, EVERYTHING!

"Yeah. Crystal clear." Sasuke smiles for the first time in a long time and kisses his blond passionately.

2 weeks passed after that and then back to the present.


"Whats the matter sensei, too much for you." Kabuto mocked Kakashi as he got up once again and took a fighting stance.

Dammit. How can he not be tired after all that. If I don't hurry, Naruto and Sasuke are in big trouble. I hope Sasuke can hold off Orochimaru just a little longer.

"Kakahi-sensei, if you don't pay attention, you might lose." Kabuto chuckled as he flunged a kunai at Kakashi, missing him just by an inch. Kakashi counter attacked by a fire jutsu and tried to get close to Iruka. The chocolate haired beauty was still out cold. In Kakashi's opinion it was a good thing but it also made it harder for Kakashi to reach him.

"SAASUKEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!" Naruto's yell pierced through the dense forest.

"Naruto!" Kakashi looked over his shoulder to where his students were fighting against Orochimaru.

(cough...splatter..splatter..)

Blood poured out of Sasuke mouth as he took the direct hit of Orochimaru's wierd jutsu.

"SASUKE! SASUKE!! LET ME GO! LET ME GO!" Naruto struggled to get free from Orochimaru's clone as the real one laughed at him and enjoyed the sight of a bloody Sasuke.

"I have to say, I never thought I would enjoy this so much." Orochimaru snickered.

"Shut the hell up. I'll kill you. I'll kill you." Sasuke repeated as he tried to get himself off the the ground.

"NO! STOP! SASUKE, PLEASE JUST STOP! Please,...please, just...stop." Naruto begged as he's body racked with tearfilled sobs.

"Naruto?"

"Please Sasuke, I..I don't want to lose you. I ...don't want to be..alone anymore. Please, Orochimaru, please just let him go. You can have my body. I'll give you my body, just please let him go." Sasuke's eyes widened in shock and so did Kakashi's as he heard Naruto's proposal.

"Are you crazy? Naruto, stop talking nonsense." Sasuke turned towards Orochimaru before continuing

"You lay one hand on him, you won't even know what hit you."

"Sasuke. Naruto." Kakashi called under his breath.

"Well, well. This should be interesting. The nine-tail actually willingly giving its body to someone." Kabuto said.

Thats right. If the Kyuubi is williing, then we can't stop it. If Orochimaru takes over Naruto's body, then who knows what he'll do. I have to do something. But...

Kakashi's gaze fluttered back to Iruka. He didn't want to lose him. But, he couldn't let Orochimaru take over Naruto's body. It would be even worse than what happened in the past.

I guess, you and I just weren't meant to be. But...

Kakashi turned his attention back towards Kabuto and performed a couple of hand seals. Kabuto's gaze fell upon Kakashi as he made the last seal.

"You still want to fight? Pathetic." Kabuto got ready for whatever measly attack the infimous Copy-Nin had in store for him.

"You better be ready." Kakashi smirked under his mask as he launched his secret attack.(Ok. I don't know what kind of attack or anything, so I'm leaving it up to you folks to deceide whatever you want. So, they fight. Kakashi attacks and...)

The force of the blast shook the ground beneath their feet. Orochimaru searched for Kabuto's presence finding no sign of the the boy. Orochimaru's clone had disappeared during the blast leaving Naruto free and frantic searching for Sasuke in the thick black smoke.


"Ruka,...Ruka, wake up." Iruka's eyes fluttered open to see a bloody Kakashi hovering over him.

"Kakashi!" Iruka launched himself on the older man and tried to breath through the smoke.

"Thank god. You are okay." Kakashi mumbled as he tried to focus his eyes.

"Kashi." Iruka embraced Kakashi. Kakashi felt he's body slowly numbing and felt his eyes dropping. He could see Iruka's face hardening as he felt Kakashi's body falling into the darkness. Kakashi smiled and said

"But, I say screw that. If I can't have you, then I don't need this life anymore."

"KAKASHIIII!!" Iruka sobbed into Kakashi's chest as he tried to revive the now unconcious man. The smoke finally cleared allowing Naruto, Sasuke and Orochimaru to witness the scene. Kabuto's corpse lay scattered around the forest area and an unconcious Kakashi laying on Iruka's laps.

"SENSEI!" Naruto and Sasue both yelled as they ran to Kakashi's side, while Orochimaru made his way to kabuto.

Orochimaru bend down beside half of Kabuto's body and saw that the boy was still alive.

"O...or...chima...ru-sama..."

"You were the best I ever had Kabuto, but if you can't live forever you are just as pathetic as them." Orochimaru said as he summoned his snakes to devour Kabuto's body.( Yuck. Eww. i hate snakes.)

"Kashi. Kashi. Please don't. No." Iruka said thorugh his tears.

"Iruka-sensei! Kakashi-sensei!" Naruto bend down beside Iruka to try to calm him down. Kakashi's face was loosing color quick but there was still life in him.

He can't die. Not like this. Not now.

Sasuke tried to pry Iruka off of Kakashi, but found it harder then prying Naruto off of a bowl of ramen.

"Hey! Wake up. You can't die like this. You can't leave Iruka-sensei like this." Sasuke watched as Naruto shook the unconcious man and tried to wake him up.

"Naruto." Iruka sobbed harder at Naruto's words.

Please. Don't take him away from me Kami-sama. I don't want to lose him.

Wake up. Wake up. WAKE UP!!

"Shut up, brat. You are noisy." Kyuubi growled.

"You...you are Kyuubi?" Naruto asked the fox.

"No, I'm your mother." Kyuubi replied sarcastically.

"Can you save him. He's dying." Naruto asked

"Why should I? Its not like I really care weather he lives or dies." the Kyuubi said.

"Please. I'll do anything." Naruto begged

"Hmm. You really want to save him that bad...Fine, lend me your body. Let me kill that snake bastard for killing Uchiha. I'll save him then." Kyuubi said.

Naruto shook his head in agreement without even a second thought.

Sasuke stared at Naruto seeing as how the blond had froze for a while.

"Naru..."AHHHHHHHH!" Naruto's scream interrupted Sasuke and jolted Iruka and Orochimaru to reality. Iruka looked at his favorite student to see him adorned in a red-orange aura. Orochimaru froze in his place as he realized what was happening and Sasuke looked at his innocent lover, in despair.

"NARUTO! STOP!" Sasuke yelled getting the blond's attention.

"Sorry kid, but Naruto's on leave at the moment." the Kyuubi answered in Naruto's stead.

"Whats going on? Whats happening?" Iruka asked

"The kit made a deal, sensei. In return for the life of this man, he will let me kill the snake. Thats is all he wants." Kyuubi snickered as he caught sight of Orochimaru in the corner of his eyes.

"Naruto?" Iruka called as he looked down upon Kakashi. The man was barely breathing.

"It won't work that way. Naruto, Naruto could die if you control him for too long."

Kyuubi slashed his arms towards Sasuke and caught him by the neck.

"Don't tell me what can happen, and anyway, he won't die. He willingly gave his body to me. Also, all this is for you. The reason why I want to kill the snake is because he killed you Uchiha. As much as I hate you, I can't help but love you. Same goes for Naruto. Do you understand." Kyuubi told a shocked Sasuke as it leaned in and kissed Sasuke hotly.

Sasuke's eyes closed as he felt the fiery breath engulf him and Iruka's breath hitched as he saw the Kyuubified Naruto kiss the Uchiha. Kyuubi released Sasuke from its grasp after a while and then turned his attention to Orochimaru.

"Now, lets get down to business." Kyuubi smirked evilly as he zoomed towards orochimaru.

"My, oh my. You just keep getting more and more interesting, Naruto-kun, or should I call you Kyuubi now." Orochimaru said as he dodged the Kyuubi's attacks.

"You can call me whatever you want, hebi-yaro(snake bastard). Its not gonna change the fact that you are gonna DIE!" Kyuubi laughed maniacally as he tore off skin from Orochimaru's face.

"You couldn't defeat me before. What makes you think you can defeat me now." said Orochimaru as he sicked his snakes on Kyuubi.

"Tsk. Tsk. I think you are getting too old for all this. That was the kit borrowing my powers but this time its all me. You won't get away from this. You'll pay for causing me and the kit pain. You're dead meat, Orochimaru." Kyuubi growled as he launched himself towards Orochimaru and bit into his shoulders.

"AHHHH!" Orochimaru cried out in pain and summoned a dozen more snakes to attack Kyuubi. Kyuubi not wanting to let go off Orochimaru prepared to take the hits from the snakes.

(sizzling sound)

Kyuubi looked over his shoulders to see Sasuke release his hand seal for his fire jutsu.

"That body still belong to Naruto. I don't want it hurt." Kyuubi snorted under his breath and turned his attention back to Orochimaru.

"You think just a bite from you is gonna kill me. Don't be so cocky."Orochimaru struggled to sound his words. Kyuubi smirked and let go off Orochimaru.

"If you think you can save yourself from my poison you are already as good as dead. I'm sure you are already feeling it, aren't you." Kyuubi laughed at Orochimaru's pained expression.

It was true. Orochimaru's vision was blurring rapidly and he was having trouble breathing but he knew that this wouldn't kill him. The kyuubi wouldn't let him just die like this.

"You can do the honors, Uchiha." Kyuubi said as he walked away from Orochimaru.

"Sasuke-kun, you can't. You can't do this to me. I can't die. I'm immortal. I'm immortal." Orochimaru yelled out as he saw Sasuke performing handseals and activating his Sharingan.

"NOOO!" Orochimaru's yells dies out with the sound off the crowing crows. Sasuke turned around to see Kyuubi bend over Kakashi's limp body.

Kyuubi reached for Kakashi's forehead and pressed his hands on it. Suddenly a similar aura as the Kyuubi's engulfed Kakashi's body. He's wounds began to disappear one by one. Kyuubi got up and pulled Iruka to his feet.

"What are you doing?" Iruka asked as the Kyuubi slashed his claws across Iruka's right hand.

"Ahh!" Iruka cried out in pain.

"Sensei! What the hell are you doing?" Sasuke asked Kyuubi.

"You didn't think I could just save him using my magic powers,did you? He lost too much blood. So, I'm guessing you won't have any problem if he borrows some of yours, do you?" kyuubi asked Iruka sarcastically, already knowing what the answer would be.

Blood flowed from Iruka's hand onto Kakashi's chest.The blood was somehow being soaked into Kakashi. Color was returning to the man's face and Iruka's. Iruka sat down beside Kakashi once more and held his hands. He could feel warmth flow through them. He looked up at Kyuubi and said

"Thank you. Thank you so much." Iruka sobbed.

"Hn. For crying out loud, theres nothing to be crying about. I kept my end of the deal. Thats all." Kyuubi snorted.

"If that is all, return Naruto. Change back." Sasuke demanded. Kyuubi looked at him with raised eyebrows but kept quiet.

"Mm...mm.." Kakashi mumbled. Iruka reached for his face and caressed his cheeks gently.

"Kashi. Kashi, open your eyes."

"Ru..ka..." Kakashi slowly opened his eyes to catch sight of his angel.

"Oh Kakashi!" Iruka glued himself to Kakashi's chest and cried his eyes out.

Don't tell me that Iruka died too. No it can't be.

"Ruka, gomen..mata omaewa skuina katta( I'm sorry.. I couldn't save you, again)." Kakashi's eyes widened as he felt a sharp sting across his right cheek.

"Hatake Kakashi, Nani ga kangaeteru omae? Shitta-daro,... shi-tta-darone, nidoto...kon-na...konna abunayi...BAKA. Da..iki..rai..da.(What the hell were you thinking? I told you, I ..told...you, to..never..something...dangerous. IDIOT. I hate you)." Iruka broke into tears, slightly confusing kakashi.

"Sensei, you alright. You gave us a scare." Sasuke asked

"Sasuke? What, what is going on? Where..." Kakashi's gaze fell on Naruto, but he knew that something was wrong.

"How?" Kakashi questioned, shocked.

"You should be thankful. I saved your life for gods sake.How rude, not even a thank you." Kyuubi snickered.

"Naruto? What happened?" Kakashi asked Sasuke.

"He saved you. Naruto asked him to." Sasuke answered.

"But now that its all over. Return back Naruto." Sasuke demanded once more. Kyuubi once again looked at the Uchiha and this time smiled.

"As you wish. I have to say, as much as I hate being a pet to the kit, I couldn't live without him anymore. We are connected. Neither of us can live without the another. So, you don't have to worry about losing him to me. And anyway, I can't wait for the next time he messes up. Its like having a live comedy central in his head 24/7. So, I'm warning you Uchiha, don't go dying on us again." Kyuubi finished as a bright light surrounded them all.
