Well, this is my 21 chapter, HIP HIP HORAY!! dance Bottoms up to all those whiskey glasses out there Anyways, these are the Akatsuki characters that I used: Sasori, Kakuzu, Kisame, Hidan, Zetsu, Tobi, Deidara, and of course Itachi. This is an especially long chapter, and IT'S NOT THE LAST!! Anyway, enjoy this chapter and please review!!

I watched as ninja fought with ninja, wolves with wolves, and thought why this had to happen. Why did this war have to start in the first place? What brought the ninja and their odd jutsu's to our world? These questions couldn't be answered, not by me or anyone else I knew.

I growled as a bird flew towards me, but it wasn't a normal bird. I scented the air and smelled clay. I tilted my head, wondering why this odd bird smelled like clay. It came closer to me, and not trusting it, I attacked it. That was a big mistake. As soon as my teeth embedded in the clay it blew into a million pieces, sending me flying backwards with shards of clay like small knives coming at me. As I landed, I tried to curl up in a ball, but my midsection was too sore. I squinted my eyes, getting ready for the clay bits to hit me. I felt the pain as I laid there, the shards imbedding in my coat and reaching my skin. I whined at the burning pain shooting through my body. This was not fair, but who said life was fair?

I carefully stood, some bits of loose clay falling to the ground. Spots of blood dripped down to the ground from my wounds, but I didn't want this to stop me. I was sore from being knocked around and I now had about 20 or 30 small wounds from the clay.

I looked around to see the girlish-guy making these birds, which happened to be bombs. I growled and bared my teeth as I crouched, ignoring my pain. I steadily came at him, not too fast, but more like a stalking manner. The girl-guy didn't notice me until I was 10 feet away from him. He glared and one of his birds came at me again. I snapped my jaws together making a snapping noise before I raced towards the clay bomb maker. The bird stopped its flight towards me, but it blew up as soon as I was almost beneath it. More shards of clay fell on me with enough force to embed a few more into me. I growled as I forced my body to attack the guy ahead of me. His face showed surprise as I attacked him, bringing him down to the ground. I snapped and snarled at him, getting my teeth around anything in my reach. My body ached for me to just run and heal, but my mind told me to stay and kill these Akatsuki members and have them for lunch.

I finally got my jaws around his neck and I closed them on instinct. Blood squirted into my mouth and the bomb maker started to choke and his hands that were trying to push me away were getting weaker. His hands finally fell to the ground in a helpless manner, the girl-guy shaking from his nerves. I grinned as I crunched my teeth together, going through some bone and more blood spraying into my face.

I brought my muzzle up, blood dripping down and hitting the now dead bomb maker. My eyes locked onto another Akatsuki member, this one looking like a shark. I stalked towards him as well, until he noticed me. He brought out his very big sword and brought it in front of him, my wolf seeing this as a challenge.

I growled and crouched, my sore muscles getting ready to spring. He grinned, and I immediately knew this was going to be a much harder foe to defeat. I was getting ready to attack and try and advert his sword away from me when the blackish-blue wolf from before jumped to my side, growling and snarling just like I was. I looked over her and saw her fur matted with blood. She was a little bit smaller than I was, but she was built with muscle. Her blue eyes were locked onto the shark in front of us.

"Hey, Kira is it? It seemed you'd like some help with this guy. Darcia's dead and we're helping you defeat these guys. I'm Blue by the way," she told me without taking her eyes off of me. I sensed that she was only half wolf, but I didn't judge her from her background. I nodded my head slightly, already knowing that the shark dude didn't hear her.

"Yeah, it is Kira. And thanks for the help. I think I'll need it," I replied, blocking everyone around us from hearing.

I smirked, showing my bloody teeth before going back into a snarl. Blue went around on his left while I circled around to his right. We were on either side of him when we both attacked. The shark's sword sliced through the air faster than I had calculated and only the flat side of his sword hit me against the side of my head. I flew back, again, and landed on my side, but flopped and rolled until I ended up staring at the shark guy from about 20 feet away. I growled as my muscles screamed at me and my wounds bled through again. Blue had missed his blade by some sort and her jaws ended up on his left arm, blood soaking her muzzle.

I grinned, but it was weak. I looked at the battles that I could see from my angle and I saw Naruto and Sakura fighting some guy with stitches all over his body. He was bleeding in his right arm and there was what looked like a heart lying on the ground. I didn't even want to know what his special jutsu thing was.

I then looked beyond them and towards Darcia's castle and watched as Tsume and Kiba fought some blonde headed Akatsuki with a sythe. I smiled as I watched my dad and Tsume work together to tear bits off of their enemy. It was odd calling him dad, and even in my mind it felt weird, but I couldn't deny who he was.

I glanced over at Toboe and Hige fighting some Akatsuki with a wooden looking mask over his face. I wasn't sure what that whole thing was about, but it looked like those two needed a bit of help. I struggled to stand on my paws, my body shaking from the strain. I had to get back to my fight. I had to defeat the shark whether it killed me or not. I suddenly thought of Sasuke and I felt like crying. What if one of us didn't make it? What if he died and I didn't get to tell him how I really felt about him?

I pushed these depressing thoughts to the back of my mind and glared at the shark. I felt rage and I knew I had to get mad. I was hoping my adrenaline would help me fight better, which it did last time. I felt my fur stand on end and the wounds that I had felt only moments ago were just a distant memory. I felt my paws rushing across the ground, but I didn't remember telling them to run. My mind was racing with killing ideas, and the last glimpse I saw was a shocked Blue and a shocked shark as I came racing towards him.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I glared at my brother with distaste. I hated him, and today I would make him pay. Sasori, one of the Akatsuki members, surprised me by attacking Itachi. Itachi was also surprised for he lost his focus on me and turned his attention to Sasori with questions in his eyes.

Sasori attacked with his puppets, and taking the advantage, charged toward the unsuspecting Itachi. He fought off the puppets and didn't have time to turn to throw me off this time. I threw my hand against his right shoulder, the Chidori ripping through his shirt and already making burn marks. He yelled in pain and dropped his kunai, making him defenseless to the puppets attacking him. My anger boiled inside me and my Chidori grew in size. Itachi seemed to scream silently as I burned his skin away to the bone. The puppets attacking him didn't help him and he collapsed into a heap. I brought my arm back towards me, the Chidori gone and my wrappings in a mess. The puppets kept attacking him without mercy.

I smiled, knowing my brother was leaving this world, no longer able to torture or pain anyone else. I looked around me and my eyes immediately went to the fight between Kira, Kisame, and another wolf. I could tell by Kira's movements and actions that she had gone mad, but I didn't stop her this time. If that's what would keep her alive, then so be it.

Sasori finished off my brother and looked at me. I looked back at him with no emotion in my eyes. Sasori finally smiled and nodded his head before heading towards two wolves fighting Tobi. I ran over to help Naruto and Sakura handle Kakuzu, the one Akatsuki member with more than one heart. He had stolen other hearts and had inserted them into himself to get their elemental powers. Pretty sick business, that guy.

I ignored the thought as I joined my former friends in battle. I took out a kunai and sent three towards his back and I kept one in my hand as I ran towards him, with one kunai in my hand. Kakuzu, feeling the attacks coming at him, turned his back on Naruto and blocked two of the kunai, the third landing in his stomach. I raced towards him and sliced the kunai in front of me, aiming for his chest. A long tear in his shirt showed that I had accomplished my plan, blood started to creep down his shirt. With his back on Naruto, he was too vulnerable as Naruto hit him with the Rasengan. Blood sprayed everywhere as the famous bounty hunter's life ended.

I looked over at Naruto and smirked. Naruto returned the gesture, but smiling his Naruto smile as blood caked his face. The moment didn't last long as I heard a thump behind me and a strangled howl.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As I came back from my mad streak, I looked down to see the dead body of the shark dude and Blue smiling at me. I smiled back, already feeling the shark's blood cake on my already blood soaked coat.

I looked back over at the battles behind me and noticed that Itachi was dead. I smiled, glad that Sasuke had had his revenge on his brother one way or another. I looked over at Toboe and Hige and saw that they were slowly regaining the upper hand on their battle. I grinned; glad that the pup and pig of the pack could fight like hell when they wanted to. I then looked over Tsume's and Kiba's battle and my small smile disappeared. Tsume was unconscious and Kiba was fighting the blonde with a sythe . . . alone.

I started to run towards the battle, ready to help Kiba, but I didn't get to reach there in time. Kiba had mistimed his attack and the blonde was swinging his sythe and it was heading right towards Kiba. I ran faster, but I knew I wouldn't be able to reach him in time. Tears already blurring my vision as I watched as my father collided with the large sword. I screamed, which in my wolf form was a deformed howl.

Kiba landed on the ground and bounced back up just a bit before settling on the hard ground. I ran towards him, wolf tears falling down my muzzle. I caught Blue out of my side vision as she attacked the blonde that had the sythe. I ran towards Kiba, turning into my human form before I reached him and fell on my knees. Blood ran down his mid-section, the slash of the sythe going from his back all the way down to his mid-stomach.

Tears rolled down my face as I picked up Kiba's head and laid him on my lap. I stroked his blood caked fur as my tears fell down onto his coat. I didn't hear the battles anymore; whether they stopped to watch the scene or I just went deaf I wasn't sure.

Kiba's eyes fluttered open and looked at me for a second before closing again.

"Kira?" his voice came to my mind, but I could barely hear his weak voice. I sniffled and leaned down towards him, my head lying against his.

"I'm here Kiba. Please, please stay with me. I know you can," I told him, not wanting to accept the fact that I had just met my real father only to have him die.

"Kira . . . I can't make it. I need. . . I need you to take over . . . the pack. Please. Remember Kira, I'll always . . . always love you. No matter where you are. . . I'll be there with you. . . Both your mom and I. . ."

Kiba took one last breath before his body loosened and his head felt heavier on my lap. I burst out crying then, not believing that he was dead. By some miracle, he was still alive, but not breathing, but I knew that was nonsense. My father was dead, and he left me his pack.

My tears felt hot against the blood on my cheeks and I looked around to find only two Akatsuki members standing, the wooden masked one and the blonde. I gently laid Kiba's head on the ground, not wanting to disturb his body any more than I had to. I stood, my hands in fists as I turned to look at the blonde. He was looking over at me even though he was fighting Blue, Naruto, and Sakura. I growled in the back of my throat as I glared him down.

"You murderer!" I screamed at him, my voice breaking because of my crying. I raced towards him, ready to tear him to pieces. His eyes widened as he watched me run after him. I had no weapons, but I knew my plan.

I ran towards him and leaped at him, my hands reaching out in front of me towards his face. I then changed forms in mid-air, no longer human, but a raging wolf that wanted revenge and lots of blood. He swung his sythe at me, but Naruto went after his arm and the large sword didn't have a chance to hit me. My teeth sank into his face as I tore after his skin. He screamed as he fell to the ground with me lying on top.

He hit my sides with his fists and tried to get me off, but no matter how hard he hit my wounds, I wouldn't move off his face. I felt the blood drip off of my fangs as I lifted my muzzle to look at the Akatsuki member that had killed my father. His face was unrecognizable as not one layer of skin remained. His face was a bloody mess and chunks of him laid around his head in horrible, torn pieces. I growled and snarled at the dead body, making sure he was dead, even though I wanted to tear all of his limbs off and make chow out of him.

I felt a hand on my shoulders and I growled and went to snap at the person, but as my fangs came inches away from their hand, I realized it was Sasuke. I snapped my jaws shut before I could gnaw his fingers off and I looked at him. I could see the pain on Sasuke's face, but I wasn't sure why. He didn't look that bad, only a few gashes and lots of blood on him.

"Kira . . ." he said, but didn't finish his sentence as he hugged me. I turned into my human form and hugged him back, not caring that my wounds were hurting and I felt like I was going to pass out. I felt new tears form at me eyes and I let them slide down my cheeks.

Before I knew it, I was sobbing my eyes out onto Sasuke's shirt. I opened my puffy, cried-out eyes to see the pack standing behind Sasuke along with Sasori, Naruto, and Sakura. They were all looking at the scene we were making with sad faces. They all looked beaten up and everybody was covered in blood.

I sniffed one last time before pulling away. I looked at Sasuke once before he helped me stand up. I looked at everyone and I knew that they knew why I was such a breakdown. I could see some tear stains on some of the wolves elongated faces, but I was sure I looked a lot worse then they did.

"He left me in charge of the pack," I managed to hiccup out to the pack. They all nodded their heads, sad faces passing from one to the other. Even Tsume, who I guess woken up while I was on my killing rage, looked like he had shed a tear or two.

I then noticed Kikyo and Banyruu had disappeared. I looked around, but didn't find them anywhere. I sighed, not caring where they went. That's the way they were, come and go as they please. I sniffed one last time and rubbed my tear stained cheeks on my bloody shirt, but I knew that didn't help. I looked at everyone and managed a smile.

"Well, we won," I told them, trying to slide happiness into my voice. Sasori and Naruto cracked small, sad smiles and everyone else just nodded their heads, as if just realizing the outcome of the battle.

I felt a shiver run down my back as the ground shook. I looked around, worried. A black whole had appeared on one side of the forest. I immediately knew what that was for; it was for the ninja to return home. Another tear slid down my cheek as I gripped Sasuke tighter to me. He hesitated for half a second before he hugged me back.

Sasori smirked before he ran into the black hole. Naruto and Sakura followed suit, but they both looked back at Sasuke before they disappeared as well. I had a feeling Banyruu and Kikyo were already back home where they belonged, but I didn't want Sasuke to leave. The pack moved away and towards the edge of the woods, waiting for me to join them.

Sasuke pulled me away and looked deep into my eyes. "Kira, I'll never forget you. I can't stay now, but if I ever find a way back, I'll be looking for you," he told me, and the look in his eyes showed me everything I wanted to know. He loved me too, but he had to go back.

"I don't want you to leave. Can't you stay?" I begged him. I pleaded him with my eyes, even though I knew he couldn't stay. I had this feeling that if he were to stay now, something bad would happen to him.

He sadly shook his head and I dropped my head to look at the ground. He put his hand on the bottom my chin and lifted my face to look at him.

"I promise you, Kira, when I find a way back, I'll be searching for you. Don't forget that," he told me, and I knew it was unlikely I would ever see Sasuke again. A silent tear slid down my face and he took his thumb to wipe it away. He looked me in the eyes once more before he lowered his head to kiss me. It was short, but passionate as he pulled away.

He walked backwards towards the black hole, looking at me with a sad face, but promise in his eyes. He then turned and walked into the black hole, disappearing from sight. The black hole soon disappeared as well and the feeling that there were others unlike us left with it.

I kept myself from crying as I turned into my wolf form and walked over to my pack. Blue, whom I only met today, walked over to me and nuzzled me. I nuzzled her back, and when she pulled away, she had tears in her blue wolf eyes. I managed a smile as I walked through the pack to the woods. Hige wouldn't look at me, but I knew sadness was all that was on his face. Tsume stopped his glaring streak to look at me with sympathetic eyes. Toboe whined a little as I passed him and I nodded my head towards him.

I looked at the woods, sighed, and headed towards the river. We had to get washed up and clean our wounds. I knew there had to be a cave somewhere along the river where we could stay and heal. I kept Sasuke's promise in my mind as I led the pack, my pack, towards our destination.

Cheza, who had stayed in the woods and out of harms way, appeared and walked along side me, resting her hand on my back. I felt calm run through me, but it didn't cloud my thoughts, or my pain. The only thought staying in my head was Sasuke's promise.
