Chapter fourteen is here! I am going to recap on the story a bit. Here goes:
Alexa and Cassie accidentally transport themselves to a different dimension. Here, Cassie and Alexa start dating Itachi and Kisame. They then find out that they are actually the reincarnations of some very powerful goddesses. They go and find their other friend Taylor, who is also part of this. They then go in search of a part of their powers, which lie in the Konaha forest. They encounter strange creatures and intelligent zombies, and Alexa nearly dies. She is miraculously healed and they travel to the realm of the gods, where Alexa meets her twin brother Jashin. He tells her that she is not only his sister, but his wife as well. Itachi becomes upset at this, and their relationship quickly dissolves. Alexa breaks up with him and sleeps with Hidan. Itachi finds out, so Alexa plans to leave with Cassie and Taylor…
Ok, I don't own Naruto. On with the story!
I slung the pack of supplies over my back and stomped out of Cassie's room. She was the last to get packed. "Why are we leaving, again?" Taylor asked me.
"We need to do the rest of this on our own. And I think I may know where we need to go to find some of our powers. I suggest taking winter clothes."
"The land of snow?" Cassie said as she came out of her room, finally finished packing.
"Yes." We starting on our way. "And we have the tools to deal with this on our own" I lugged the giant pack up onto my back. It wasn't as hard as it seemed, because, when we had gotten some of our powers back, we had become stronger and faster.
"Well, maybe us. All you can do is heal people." Cassie joked.
"Yeah, well…" I wasn't paying attention, and I ran into a wall. I stumbled back and looked up at Itachi. "What do you want?" I snapped, my eyes burning again with the threat of tears.
"You misunderstood me. It's not that you aren't good enough for me." He said. I ground my teeth together and glared at the ground. "Quite the opposite."
"I'm sorry, but I have to go do this on my own. Maybe the separation will do everyone some good." I shook my head and walked around him to go meet with the others. They had went on a little bit a head to give some privacy.
Itachi put a hand on my hand and turned me around. He poked my forehead and gave me a look that said that he would do anything. It was quite an odd look for him. "I will be back in a couple of months, maybe longer." I said. "It won't be that long." I readjusted the pack and left him standing there.

We traveled in silence for a while, when finally Taylor asked. "What did you do to that poor man?" She was talking about Itachi. "I have never seen someone look more depressed. I didn't think Uchihas could cry, but I swear I saw a tear."
"It's a long story, Tay." I sighed. We had been going at a jogging pace for almost three hours. "One that makes me feel like the biggest whore on the planet."
"Oh, it couldn't be that bad."
"I had sex with Hidan."
"What?" Taylor was distracted, looking at me with shock, and she didn't see the tree root that was jutting out of the ground. She fell flat on her face. "You what?" She asked me again when she had finally recovered from her fall. "You are so lucky!"
I stared at her in disbelief. "I am not lucky. I admit, I tried to stop him, but part of me didn't want to stop him, so I just gave up. Part of me was so angry at Itachi that I didn't care about his feelings. I just did whatever I wanted…"
"Or whoever you wanted…" Taylor cut in.
I growled in frustration, but continued, "And now I've done something that I can't undo!" I began to jog again. "I'm such a moron."
We continued on until it became dark. We made camp and built a small fire, courtesy of Cassie. I had yet to see what powers she had gained, so I was shocked when she smiled at me and shot a small flame out of her pointer finger.
"Let's get some sleep, shall we?" I said and stood up. "I'll take first watch."

It was an hour until my watch was over, when some strange creature came creeping out of the woods. They looked like deer, but they all had six legs. They noticed me and their lips curled back, revealing their teeth. They were pointed like a sharks, and there were rows and rows of them. I immediately stood up and pulled out a kunai.
The deer like things backed into the woods again, hissing like cats. I shrugged my shoulders and sat down again, ready for my shift to be over.

It was a few days into traveling that I noticed that the deer creatures were following us at a safe distance. My first thought was that they were hunting us. Then I thought, I knew that the animals would hunt us down one day, and get revenge on human kind. I took a closer look and shrank away from what I saw.
They were hunting us. Not only that, they had gathered more of themselves. They had a pack mentality, and were waiting till they had enough numbers to overwhelm us and kill us.
"Cassie." I said to get her attention. She woke up with a start.
"What?"
"Can you set fire to all of those deer creatures?" I said. "They have been hunting us, waiting to kill us." I explained to her my observations.
"We'll need to pack things up and run as soon as I do. These things might go instantly nuts, and we'll need to make a quick getaway." I nodded and woke up Taylor, filling her in as to what was happening while we were packing things up.
We also deigned to call these creatures 'raptor-deer', because they hunted like raptors. We were all pack like we were getting to have a normal day of travel. Cassie lifted her hand, pointed it at the raptor-deer herd, and shot a wide beam of fire. It engulfed the herd and instantly caught them on fire. What Cassie had predicted came true. As soon as the fire touched them, they went completely crazy and stampeded towards us. We ran in the opposite direction as fast as we could.
The end of chapters are always bittersweet. Read and Review!
