Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto and Dead or Alive

Sasuke arrived at the apartment that he shares with his friend he was wearing his ninja uniform since he was having another sparing match with Ayane before their match tomorrow. He was surprised to see Naruto and Sakura watching television in the living room, but as soon as they saw their friend and teammate they went to him he notice that Naruto was a little puzzle but he saw that Sakura was serious he could tell something was bothering her.

"What's going on?" Sasuke said puzzle.

"Well Sasuke Sakurachan wants to tell us something important I try asking her what it was but she told me she wanted to tell it to the two of us"

"Okay I'm here so what's up Sakura?"

Sakura nodded" okay I have to tell you guys something important last night when I go out with Ryu we…." she paused seeing Naruto shock.

"What Sakurachan you went with Ryu wait a minute is he the one you were going on a date?"

She sighed" yes Naruto but that's not the point we were ambush by ninjas from the black spider clan"

"The black spider clan I heard of them they were one of the most dangerous ninja clans around but the clan fell apart when the leader was kill" Sasuke said sounding impress.

"Yes kill by Ryu" Sakura said shocking both Naruto and Sasuke" anyway we fought them and manage to win however one of the ninjas that we fought he………….he had and used Orochimaru's curse seal"

They were shock hearing this but Sasuke gave a grin.

"So Orochimaru really is here this is perfect while we are fighting in the tournament we will take the chance to finally kill him for good" Sasuke said.

"Yeah but the real question is when will he strike?" Naruto said

Sakura nodded" yeah for all we know he could strike at any moment in the tournament"

"We don't have to worry about that trust me now I know him well he will made his move at the end of the tournament"



"How can you be so sure Sasuke?" Naruto said.

"Remember that Donovan's purpose for the tournament is to find the ultimate fighter so when the final match is over and the champion is announce he will strike"

"That's right the winner of the tournament will become the candidate to become his new body" Sakura said.

"So it all comes down to whoever wins the final match of the tournament?" Naruto said.

"No it comes down to whoever wins the second round and the semifinals so far Jan Lee, you, Sakura and Ryu have advance to the semifinals and as for me there's nothing to worry about I will win my match tomorrow"

"Are you sure Sasukekun you are facing Ayane after all?" Sakura said.

"Don't I worry I won't try to hold back on her so she could win on purpose unlike someone I know" he said while eyeing the blond teen.

"Hey I already told you Sasuke that I won the match so stop complaining already" Naruto said while crossing his arms.

"Anyway I have already study her moves she's strong but she can't beat me admit the she's skillful and agile but she can't beat me it will be a great match I'm looking forward to fight her" he said that's when he notice Naruto and Sakura chuckling while whispering things to one another" what's wrong with you two?"

"It's nothing Sasuke" Naruto said while chuckling and Sakura scold him by giving him a friendly elbow on his side.

"What are you guys laughing about come on tell me what's the big joke?" he said getting irritated.

"Okay Sakurachan let's tell him"

Sakura nodded while giggling.

"SASUKE LIKES AYANE SASUKE LIKES AYANE"

Sasuke blush like a tomato hearing that right now he was thinking of killing his two teammates for shouting such comment.

Sakura control herself" I'm sorry Sasukekun but we couldn't resist you seem to be happy that you're fighting her but we really are happy that you finally found someone precious to you"

"Yeah Sasuke and Ayane were sitting on a tree k-i-s-s-i-n-g AHH" Naruto shouted when a snake jump on him and started squeezing him.

"Sasukekun that's not nice"



Sasuke fume" you two are so immature Sakura if I remember correctly you almost choke Naruto to death for being immature by spending his money buying a video game console"

Sakura hang her head in shame" yeah I guess I was being immature but I couldn't help it Sasukekun Naruto and I are just happy for you"

"Sakura I doubt that Ryu likes immature girls" Sasuke said with a grin.

Sakura felt like crying (I knew it I'm not good enough to be with Ryu) she started sobbing and left the apartment.

"Goodnight Sakura" Sasuke said while going to his room.

"SASUKE WAIT GET THE SNAKE OFF ME AH IT'S GOING INSIDE MY PANTS STOP IT"

Sasuke smirk" nah why don't you spend the night with her she will enjoy your company goodnight Naruto" he then entered his room leaving the poor Naruto struggle with the snake.

A couple of minutes later he left his room and went to take shower afterwards he was returning to his room to sleep when he saw that Naruto has fallen asleep and the snake was sleeping next to him he couldn't help but laugh at the sight.

That night he had a dream about Ayane they were having one of their sparring matches so far the dream was normal until Ayane tackle him and she was on top of him she kiss him passionately and before he knew it they were having a make out session. Things got hotter as Ayane decided to take it to the next level of intimacy and that's where his dream ended. He woke up while cursing why does the dream has to end when the best part comes it really annoy him a lot he sighed and went back to sleep. The next day he woke up and took a shower he went back to his room and got dress in his usual black leather jacket jeans and black army boots.

When he reach the hall he sweat dropped when he saw that Naruto was still sleeping on the floor and the snake was still sleeping next to him he sweat dropped at the sight.

(I never thought he will actually stay sleeping in the floor oh well it's not my problem) he then made the snake vanish.

He ate a quick breakfast and left the apartment heading to the streets, while walking he was in deep thought about his dream and about what happened to him two days ago in one of his sparing matches with Ayane.

(Flashback to forest region outside of the city two days ago)

Sasuke dodge another barrage of shurikens and kunais by Ayane she threw another round of kunais at him only to block them with Kusanagi. He made a snake appear from his wrist wrapping itself around the kunoichi only that she vanish and was she was replace by a wooden log. Sasuke was impress she was quick on her feet using a substitution jutsu before hand no doubt she was truly a unique kunoichi. Ayane 

appear behind him but he has sense her and he threw a punch only to be block by the kunoichi he did a backflip landing a few feet from her, he saw that she took a double blade sword the blades glow with a strange light (AN Omega's weapon from DOA3 Ayane took his weapon) she charge at him with her sword only to have it block by Kusanagi.

The two ninjas were clashing their swords endlessly Sasuke was impress not just her taijutsu and ninjutsu was excellent but her sword skills were truly remarkable he was really enjoying sparing with her. Sasuke threw a barrage of snakes from his wrist and Ayane block them spinning her sword rapidly not letting the snakes get to her, he took the opportunity to perform a jutsu he quickly made a couple of hand seals.

"FIRE STYLE DRAGON FLAME JUTSU"

He shot a large wave of fire from his mouth hitting the kunoichi but she was gone, he stood his ground looking at every direction suddenly he saw a lot of butterflies flying through the trees without realizing he was surrounded by the butterflies. He blink seeing they were all gone but it was over he gasp seeing the lavender kunoichi behind him pointing her double edge sword to his neck, she was good using that trick and he couldn't believe he fell for her trap.

(Damn those butterflies it was all a genjutsu If I have used my sharingan I could have seen it coming damn she's good in all three areas)

She gave a satisfactory grin" it's over Sasuke I win"

She then smirk seeing he was turning into mud and melting in the ground she jump while doing a back flip Sasuke charge at her with Kusanagi in hand but Ayane block it with her sword and they were now crossing swords with one another.

"Nice going Sasuke you pretended to fall for my genjutsu and I knew you were going to use a substitution to escape my attack" Ayane said with a smirk.

"You are pretty good yourself you know you are the first ninja I fight that is good in all three areas I'm impress Ayane" he gave her a smile.

She continued to cross swords with him but she couldn't help but blush a little at his compliment.

"I'm impress with you too Sasuke you are a strong opponent maybe you have what it takes to beat master Ryu but then again maybe you don't"

"Really?" he said while trying to break free from the crashing of their blades.

"Sasuke you are strong but you are nowhere near master Ryu's level"

"So you still think I don't stand a chance against him" Sasuke said getting upset and jealous" if you think Ryu is the strongest why don't you spar with him"

Ayane smirk" are you jealous Sasuke?"



Sasuke growl as he broke free from her sword and swung Kusanagi but Ayane was faster and swung her sword crashing with his sword, suddenly Sasuke manage to grab her wrist and pull her closer to him causing her to fall they both fell to the ground while dropping their weapons. For the next minutes they stood quiet and calm while calculating the situation they were both in Ayane was on top of him and he felt like he has die and gone to heaven. He smell her scent and it was intoxicating it smell like roses and he was amazed how clean and beautiful her skin is he could tell Ayane was taking good care of her skin and physical looks.

Their eyes lock and he could feel his heart beating fast at the close proximity their lips were his breathing quicken was this really happening was Ayane the most beautiful kunoichi he has ever laid eyes on so close to him. Ayane felt her cheeks blushing at the close proximity of the Uchiha's lips with hers she saw his onyx eyes how beautiful they were, right now there was only one thought in their minds to press their lips together. He could almost taste her lips how he wanted to taste those sweet lips but he control his urges, it seems he wasn't the only one who was thinking the same Ayane did as she got off from him and got back in her feet Sasuke follow after.

"You were pretty good Ayane" Sasuke said while trying to forget the fact that he almost kiss her.

"Thanks you weren't bad yourself I guess I'll see you later" she then vanish without staying a minute longer.

Sasuke sighed (dear Kami I wanted to kiss her so bad)

(End of flashback)

He sighed how he wanted to go back to the past and gave her a big kiss on that moment but the past is the past so there was nothing he could do about it. As he arrived to a candy shop he saw Ayane standing in front of the entrance to the shop, she was wearing a lavender tank top a pair of shorts and purple sneakers.

"You're late" she said in a annoyed tone.

Sasuke stodd his ground he was expecting that Ayane will threw him a barrage of kunais like when they had their date at the park but nothing happen which he was surprise.

"Sorry I overslept a little"

She chuckle" yeah I have one of those and especially when I'm not a morning person"

Sasuke smile he open the door to the candy shop" ladies first"

She smirk but she still took gentlemen offer and enter the shop, a couple of minutes later Sasuke had a baby Ruth chocolate bar and Ayane had a box of marron glaces they went to take a walk. They reach a small bridge in town while enjoying their snacks Sasuke saw how much Ayane was enjoying her snack he chuckle a little while Ayane took a quick glance at him.



"Something funny?"

"No it's just that you really like that candy"

"I can't help it this is my favorite snack"

"Of course" he said while looking at the sky" Ayane?"

"Yeah?"

"There's something I have to tell you it's important" Sasuke said serious getting Ayane's attention.

"What is it?"

"Sakura and Ryu fought ninjas of the black spider clan"

Ayane was surprise" what they are still alive I thought master Ryu kill all of them at the whole Archfiend situation"

(Archfiend?) Sasuke thought curious.

"Okay so why are you telling me this?"

"Well one of the ninjas use a technique that only Orochimaru knows"

Ayane raised an eyebrow" meaning?"

"It means Orochimaru is here and he could be helping Donovan we both have a common goal Ayane we will help you and Hayate stop DOATEC once and for all and that's not all knowing Orochimaru he will make his move when the tournament ends"

"Really when the tournament is over I think is kind of obvious for him to attack after the tournament is over but master Hayate already knows that we will strike when the tournament is over too"

"That's good we will make our move too"

"Sasuke you do realize if I tell master Hayate about this he will still disagree with making an alliance with Konoha"

"Yeah I know but right now our top priority is to stop Orochimaru and Donovan now Ayane will you help us on our mission?" he look into her eyes.

She looked back into his eyes with a smirk" only if you help on our mission"

"Of course we'll help"

"Good then I suggest you get prepare for our fight because I won't hold back just because we are friends"



Sasuke grin" really I didn't know we were friends"

"Well right now we are rivals until our fight is over" she said in a amused tone" I'll be waiting for you" she then vanish.

Sasuke sweat dropped (I hate it when she does that)

He left and headed back to his apartment to change and prepare for his match with Ayane it was one step closer to advance to the semifinals and the final round of the tournament.

Hours later at Tokyo forest the camera crew were present along with the announcer of the match, te place where the match was taking place in a bamboo forest(AN I was inspires by the DOA movie when Ayane and Kasumi are fighting in the bamboo forest even if the movie is a big piece of crap). Naruto, Kasumi and Sakura were present the announcer saw Sasuke and Ayane that appear walking until they were facing each other.

"Go Sasuke" Naruto said.

"Yeah go Sasukekun" Sakura said.

(Should I cheer for Ayane or Sasukesan?) Kasumi thought.

"Al right to all the viewers and people present we are about to begin the fifth match of the second round Sasuke vs. Ayane"

"I'm going to enjoy this Ayane"

"Don't underestimated me Sasuke"

Get ready…..FIGHT

Sasuke charge at her but she climb one of the bamboo tree and use a flying kick which Sasuke dodge climbing to a tree and jump forward to send a punch at her which she block. Both were using the bamboo forest to their advantage in the fight. Sasuke climb the tree and Ayane follow him and pretty soon they were standing on top of the bamboo trees, they were using the chakra and their balance to stand one foot at the top of the tree. They smile at each other before charging Sasuke launch a fist but it was block by Ayane she use a kick only to be block by him, they were attacking and blocking their attacks. The group were amazed at how well they fought and it was no surprise they have spar so many times that they could read each other's move, Sasuke launch a kick and Ayane dodge and she use her back flip kick hitting him but he landed on his feet still standing on the top of the tree.

Kasumi was impress she knew her half sister have grown stronger but not this strong and it surprise her to see that Sasuke could keep up with her, she watch at the two ninjas who seem to be enjoying the fight a lot. Ayane use a high kick while Sasuke dodge it and used an upward kick sending her to the air he was about use his lion combo but Ayane manage to block his kick and retain her balance back to the top 

of the tree. They continued to throwing their attacks blocking countering and dodging but they knew one was going to victorious, Sasuke knew that it was time to end it he threw another kick at her and she dodge he expected that she was going to dodge it so he charge again and kick her upward sending her to the air. Ayane try to block the kicks but she couldn't she was kick three times sending her back to ground of the forest Sasuke landed next to her, she growl she couldn't believe she lost to him but somehow she was happy he won she suddenly fell into conscious.

The announcer went to check on her" it's over the winner of the match is Sasuke"

WINNER

"Ayane you fought well"

Sakura Naruto and Kasumi went to them Kasumi was worry for Ayane but nothing Sakura could handle she heal her in no time after a couple of minutes Ayane woke up she saw the rest of the leaf ninjas and her half sister Kasumi. But she growl in anger when she saw the Uchiha who beat her in the match she rush towards him and tackle him to the ground while Sasuke was trying to fight her off.

"YOU BASTARD you were lucky you beat me" she spat.

"Ayane don't be a sore loser"

"SHUT UP"

"NO YOU SHUT UP"

"KISS ME"

"GLADLY"

The two ninjas started kissing passionately while tasting their tongues dance in their mouths while Naruto Sakura and Kasumi stood with their jaws to the ground. They couldn't understand what just happened one minute they were about to kill each other and now they were kissing like they were a couple.

"Wow" Naruto said.

"Double wow" Sakura follow.

Kasumi only smile at the new couple (I'm glad Ayane found someone to love)

Naruto notice her look" what's wrong Kasumichan?"

"It's nothing Narutosan I'm happy for Ayane she found someone very precious to her"

"Don't worry Kasumichan you will find a boyfriend someday" he gave her a smile.

Kasumi blush" yes thank you Narutosan who knows maybe he's closer that I think" she blush harder.



"Exactly" Naruto said.

Sakura sighed (Naruto when will you realize that she likes you more than a friend)

"Um….we better go and leave them alone" Kasumi said.

"Yeah you're right let the new love birds continue sucking faces" Naruto said while Kasumi laugh at his comment.

They left leaving the two kissing ninjas alone after a while the sun was down and nightfall fell upon the forest eventually the two ninjas broke their kiss due to lack of air, they didn't say a word they went to a small hill and got seated watching the wonderful view. Ayane lean her head on his shoulder and he put his arm around her waist no words could express what both were feeling right now, Sasuke has never felt so happy to be alive he wish only wish this moment could never end. As for Ayane well she was feeling the same way and she hope that this could never end she has found someone so precious to her someone to love forever she blush while snuggling closer to the Uchiha this was one of the many happy memories that she will treasure and cherish for the rest of her life.
