"Kakashi-Kun…" Rin said watching as Kakashi revealed his own Mangekyu Sharingan.

"How long have you been there?" Kushina asked.

"Long enough," Kakashi replied. Then his eyes fell on Rin he reached out to touch her cheek but his hand just passed right thru her, "I am sorry Rin…I am sorry Sensei Kushina-Sama…I am sorry Naruto…I am sorry Obito, I have failed you all. But that will all change now."

"I thought you would have learned by now to stop making promises that you can't keep," Obito said coolly. Kakashi just frowned before launching a bunch of Kunai at Tobi all of them having explosives placed on them. Obito started dodging them until they started exploding and he used Jikukan Ido, but despite using his Jutsu, he was blasted sideways and his right side was damaged. Obito looked down at his right arm frowning slightly.

"So it seems you have figured out away to fight me Kakashi…but let me show you the true power of Kamui wielded by an Uchiha," Obito said as giant shuriken were launched at Kakashi from another dimension, Kakashi managed to dodge them never taking his eye off of Obito. He charged Kakashi with a kunai drawn. Kakashi passed right thru Obito, "you are getting sloppy Kakashi," Obito taunted as he struck Kakashi but he felt electricity coursing thru his body and was momentarily stunned as a hand ripped thru his chest, he glanced back to see Kakashi, "well played Kakashi."

Kakashi pulled his hand back and jumped back as Obito used Jikukan Ido, 'Raiju Hashiri no Jutsu' a beast made of lightning charged Obito, just as Kakashi, charged with his Chidori ready. And once again Obito used Jikukan Ido to avoid Kakashi's Chidori, effectively avoiding Kakashi's other Jutsu or so he thought. Kakashi had sent it to the other dimension.

Obito was now barely able to stand and Kakashi too was low on Chakra, "It's over Obito…you have lost," Kakashi said panting heavily.

"Do you really think so?" he asked as his right eye closed and he pointed at some place to his right as he vanished and there stood Obito untouched.

"Izanagi…" Itachi said to the confused on lookers, "it is a Genjutsu that bends reality around the user, nullifying all damage done to the user in the span of the Jutsu life, but by using it the user loses use in one of their eyes."

"A small price to pay… now Kakashi, you don't have the chakra to continue this fight," Obito said coolly.

"I will finish this fight," Itachi said calmly.

"No…this is still my fight," Kakashi said still breathing hard his right eye closed. The Gedo Mazo started for them, the Chakra around Naruto took form of the Kyubi and his clothes changed. They all watched in shock as Naruto attacked the statue in his new imperfect form. Obito was getting ready to jump in to save his precious statue.

"Your fight is with me Obito," Kakashi said throwing a kunai at the masked man.

"Very well Kakashi if you are in such a rush to die," Obito said glaring at his old teammate who was turning to be as much of a pest as Naruto.

"Itachi, you are no longer needed here," Minato said coolly and Itachi understood what he meant and rushed off.

Kabuto was on the ropes, he never imagined that he would have to fight the Nidaime Hokage one on one, he hoped that Sasuke would be fighting alongside him but the young Uchiha had his own problems in the form of his former team he left for dead and the young Hyuga Heiress who's skills had grown considerable over the years.

Sasuke managed to block Suigetsu's sword with his own katana and he barely dodged Hinata's attack. He knew that blocking her attacks wouldn't do him any good, 'Enton: Kagutsuchi,' and a shield made of black flames appeared before Sasuke blocking Suigetsu's attack and he landed a kick to Hinata's chest knocking her back. He glanced over to see Kabuto was in more trouble than he was showing how far beneath the Nidaime Hokage he was.

Sasuke knew he had to get away from here or after Tobirama finished with Kabuto he would turn on him as well and fighting a Kage on top of the Hyuga and his former team was not something he could so at the moment. Sasuke turned and started running pulling his opponents away from their back up.

Kabuto frowned as he watched the Uchiha's retreating back, but he also noticed that the Shinobi he was fighting were following him.

Madara was not happy these two were giving him more of a challenge than he expected, he knew that Hashirama was strong but he never thought that Jiraiya would be this good. He truly was worth of the title of Sannin and would have made a great Hokage. It turned out that Jiraiya could manipulate natural energy that his Rinnegan couldn't absorb without risk to himself and on top of that both man had massive chakra reserves, any other Shinobi wouldn't have lasted this long against him. He knew that he had to end this quickly incase one of them had the power to seal. He knew little about the Sannin he was consider one of the most skilled Fuinjutsu users to ever live his knowledge was said to be second only to the Uzumaki clan and his Student Namikaze Minato.

"As fun as this has been all good things must come to an end," Madara said in his cool tone, his Susanoo started to take form once again but this time it was a full bodied Susanoo, "this is the perfect Susanoo," he declared to the Shinobi before him.

The Susanoo started reaching for its sword but trees shout up entangling, "impressive but it won't be enough to stop…" he turned to see that Jiraiya's Jutsu was cracking the armor in the back of his Susanoo. He couldn't help but be impressed with the raw power Jiraiya had but it wasn't enough. The Susanoo with stood the Jutsu but Jiraiya pulled his fist back and punched a hole in his Susanoo, 'Magen: Gama Rinsho,' Madara was trapped by the Genjutsu and his Susanoo started to disappear. Hashirama took this opportunity to place the seal upon Madara.

"Sorry Jiraiya-Kun we wish we could stay to help you finish this war…but we are too old for this," Fukasku said after they were sure Madara had been dealt with.

"I'm getting too old for this as well," Jiraiya said smiling.

"We have done our part now we have to have faith in our comrades," Hashirama said looking down at the Edo Tensei Madara.

When Sasuke was sure he was a good distance away from the Nidaime Hokage he stopped and faced the three Shinobi that had followed him. He quickly reformed his Susanoo and shot an arrow that hit Suigetsu but he turned to water on contact then he shot a second arrow at the two Kunoichi but Suigetsu pushed the girls out of the way and the arrow passed right thru him but he was consumed by black flames.

"Suigetsu…!" Karin shouted watching as her friend was swallowed by Amaterasu, Hinata got back to her feet and her chakra lion reformed around her and she started to attack the traitorous Uchiha. But her Chakra was low and one good hit from his Susanoo was all it took he was about to finished her off when she was surrounded by a hand…the hand of Itachi's Susanoo.

"Sasuke, this is not what I wanted for you," Itachi said his Susanoo still protecting Hinata from his brother.

"So it is true they sent you to kill me," Sasuke said frowning.

"No…the Genjutsu that I am under was not intended for me…it was for you. I planned on you killing me and taking my eyes so you would get the Eternal Mangekyu Sharingan so you would be able to protect yourself. And if you did ever fight Naruto with my eyes the Genjutsu would have activated…so in a sense I doing this of my own will even thou I am under Genjutsu."

"So you are going to kill me because I didn't do what you want?" Sasuke asked frowning.

"No…I have no intention of killing you or even fighting you…I just wanted to say I'm sorry…I failed you as a brother, maybe if it had been you…you could have found a way to prevent this from happening."

"Nothing you can say will change anything," Sasuke said coldly.

"I never thought it would," then he froze unable to move his body, and his body started to break apart, the Edo Tensei was being released. A few seconds later he regained control of his own body, "it seems my time is almost over."

"So that is it you come here and apologize and leave me like you always do…I want answers Itachi!" Sasuke shouted.

"Very well," he said activating his Mangekyu Sharingan, "I will show you everything."

The events leading up to the night of the massacre played before Sasuke's eyes. Then he say it again the night that haunted him in his dreams the death of his clan the death of his family. When all was said and done Itachi started walking towards Sasuke, "You don't have to forgive me. No matter what you decided from now on, I will always love you." He said smiling at his little brother his hand reaching out for Sasuke, "forgive me Sasuke…it ends with this." but instead of poking his brother's forehead he placed it on the back of Sasuke's head and place his forehead against Sasuke's.

Sasuke watched as his brother vanished before his eyes in a flash of light.

Naruto and the Gedo Mazo were in a furious battle, it was the definition of clash of the titans as the landscape around them was changed forever. As the Gedo Mazo started to fall back after being hit with a Bijudama, it vanished in a puff of smoke.

"No…!" Obito shouted.

"The Edo Tensei has been released," Naruto said sensing all the Zombies leaving this world. Naruto turned back to his normal state.

"Naruto-San is there any way I can stay a little longer," Rin said feeling Naruto Jutsu fading he shook his head.

"This Jutsu will last about five more minutes…and the seal is too complex to do on the spot and I only had one with me…honestly I was planning on using it so that Sasuke could talk to Itachi one last time," Naruto answered.

"You guys go leave this to me," Kakashi said. They all looked at Kakashi knowing that nothing they could say would change his mind. This was something he had to do.

"We will see you later Kakashi-Sensei," Naruto said smiling at his sensei, Kakashi just nodded and off the four Shinobi left leaving Minato's students standing in the aftermath of Naruto's fight with the Edo Mazo.

"All my life I have been praised as a Genius but that isn't true…I am nothing but a failure. I failed you, I failed Rin, I failed Sensei, I failed as a Sensei…but I will right all my wrongs righted…here and now, I will help Naruto bring about the world he dreams of," Kakashi said with a new found vigor ready to fight his best friend for the last time, Obito ready to fight, Rin standing with tears in her eyes watching her closest friend ready to fight to the death.
