Rating-PG for mild violence and kissing
Disclaimer-Naruto does not belong to me
Summary-During the Chunnin Exams Yuki (OC) encounters a strange boy that seems to be heartless named Gaara. Though she doesn't know yet, their relationship is actually deeper than it seems. But will it all come crashing down when she learns the real reason why Gaara is participating in the Chunnin Exams?
AN-Sucky title I know. So this is a story with Gaara in it and an OC named Yuki. I'll be switching from my OC's POV and Gaara's POV and I will tell you when I switch. Even though this takes place during the Chunin Exams Tsunade is Hokage already. You can make up a story about what happened to the Third but I just need her short-temper and sorta of youngness. And one more thing. Some lines are taken exactly from the manga or anime because I had a hard time rewording them. I'll mention it when it happens! Yeah... Hope you enjoy and please review!
Chapter 23
The End
Orochimaru watched the young couple embrace each other with a scowl on his face. "This isn't good," he said to himself. He looked around for Kabuto to see if they could make a quick getaway. But Kabuto was too busy fighting several Konohagakure shinobi with his medical jutsus. "Shit."
Yuki looked into Gaara's eyes. "I have to stop him, Gaara. I have to kill Orochimaru."
Gaara shook his head. "No. He's too strong. Even for you. I know what he can do and I know he will kill you if you try to fight him."
"I have to. I promised myself I would never let anything happen to Konohagakure as long as I live. And I never break my promises." She grinned at him before getting up. She looked down at him. "Don't worry. I promise you I won't get killed. Now I have to stay alive."
Gaara watched as Yuki once again let Kaibutsu take her over. She knew very well that she couldn't beat Orochimaru unless she used Kaibutsu's power, though this time she wasn't going to give herself up.
Yuki faced the man who killed her family and corrupted her mind. "I won't let you kill my family again, Orochimaru."
She took a deep breathe in and closed her eyes. "What are you going to do?" Kaibutsu asked in the depths of her mind.
I'm going to kill him in one shot. Yuki concentrated on everything good in her life. All of her friends that loved her. The villagers who welcomed her kindly to Konohagakure. Her parents, who thought of her as their prodigy child. The baby brother she never really got to know. The village she swore she'd protect with her life.
Orochimaru and Gaara watched as the air around her became dense with chakra, her hair floating in midair. Her clothes tore apart even more than they already were and the wind around her became cooler by the second.
She opened her jet-black eyes and focused them on Orochimaru. "I will not allow you to live," she declared.
In a blink of an eye Yuki flew towards Orochimaru and struck him right in the face causing him to fly backwards. But just before he could hit the wall enclosing the stadium she appeared behind him and kicked him in the back. Throughout the entire stadium Yuki thrashed Orochimaru's body around as though it were a rag doll.
At last Yuki ran out of steam with one final blow square in Orochimaru's guts. He crashed into the ground creating a huge crater with him right in the middle.
Yuki landed on the ground out of breath and greatly weakened. Dirt covered her face and her breathing was heavy. What happened next caught her completely by surprise. The pale man's hand rose from the hole in the ground and he pulled himself out yet he should have been dead.
Orochimaru opened his mouth up wide and out came another one of him covered with a thin film of saliva. The old body of his disappeared in the wind when it turned to dust. "Mudslide Jutsu!" Out of nowhere a giant wave of mud came from behind him and aimed towards Yuki.
Though her muscles screamed in agony, she jumped just in time to avoid being buried beneath a ton of mud. Focusing chakra into the soles of her feet she landed atop of the mud.
Orochimaru smirked at her. "That was a very powerful first attack, Yuki dear. Did you expect it to kill me? Why, you've underestimated me."
Yuki watched in horror as he performed a jutsu she was once told about. The Summoning: Impure World Resurrection Jutsu. But who was he going to bring back to life?
"Say hello to mother and father," Orochimaru snickered as the coffins that had come up from the ground opened to reveal both Yuki's mother and father. Their skin was an ashy gray and their eyes were empty, not full of joy as they used to be. With a tag tied onto it, Orochimaru placed a kunai in both of their heads giving him complete control over them.
The colour returned to them in a quick second and they resembled the parents she used to love and cherish. Yuki blinked away a few tears. But they weren't her parents! They were nothing more but empty shells that knew all of her parents' jutsus under Orochimaru's control.
Her father ran towards her as mother performed a series of hand signs before slamming her hand on the ground. "Venus Vine Trap Jutsu!" From out of the ground grew monster sized Venus vine traps that wrapped around Yuki. Her father took out two wind chakra blades from his kunai holsters on his thigh and used his wind chakra to lengthen the blades.
Having already depleted her chakra through her first offensive attack Yuki had to force herself to break through the vines that encased her. She jumped into the air in time to have dodged her father's attack.
But her mother was already one step ahead. A thorny vine wrapped around her and pierced through Yuki's skin causing her to scream out in pain. She fell to the ground bleeding and covered in grime. Her father was there on the ground ready to slice her up.
"Get up, Yuki!" Kaibutsu shouted at her. "I can't help you unless you move! AGH!" Forcing her to move, Kaibutsu demanded Yuki on her feet and then out a just of icy chakra.
Her parents leaned back in surprise and turned to solid ice figures. Yuki rose from the ground, blood dripping down her arm and she faced Orochimaru breathing heavily. He simply smiled before opening his mouth letting a small snake come out. Our from the snake's mouth came the Sword of Kusanagi. "Just what I expected from you, Yuki," he said as he released the Resurrection Jutsu.
He came out her with the Sword of Kusanagi pointed straight towards her heart. It was torture to try to move her body out of the way, but Kaibutsu forced her to. If she died he went along with her.
"You need to get it together!" Kaibutsu yelled at her.
She chided him. Well sorry! I'm just bleeding from the anus! Again she dodged Orochimaru's deadly strike though this time she sent a kick flying at his wrists so the Sword of Kusanagi flew out of his hands.
Kaibutsu cheered for her8 in the back of her man because he had not ordered for her to do that meaning she was regaining more control. "That's more like it!"
Without listening to him Yuki grasped tightly onto Orochimaru's wrist not letting him go. "We're both going to die here," she whispered.
Now Kaibutsu was slightly confused. Until realization hit him. "You can't use that jutsu! We'll all die!"
Yuki blocked him out. She had just enough chakra and strength to perform one last jutsu that would finally put an end to the mass murderer she used to call father. "I promised the day I was accepted into Konohagakure by the Fifth Hokage, Lady Tsunade, that I would protect the village with my life. And that's exactly what I'm going to do."
Orochimaru knew what she was going to do the instant she tightened her grip on him and closed her eyes. One jutsu that turned the performer's body and soul into an ice coffin that encased the person attacked. Ice Encasement Jutsu.
Knowing she only had a little bit of strength left Orochimaru called upon the Sword of Kusanagi and it rose from its place on the ground. Just as she was about to perform the jutsu Orochimaru sent the sword flying straight through her heart.
Yuki's eyes widened right when the sword pierced through her back. The pain was something unimaginable as her heart pumped slower and slower every time. When she coughed she coughed up blood. "Orochimaru," she struggled to say. "I won't let you hurt my friends."
She knew she couldn't perform the Ice Encasement Jutsu with what little strength she had now so with all the power she could muster up she performed a weaker yet still strong jutsu. :Carrier Winds Jutsu," she whispered just before she fell to the ground unconscious, her heartbeat ceasing all together.
I know this chapter is late but I had writer's block and I just couldn't write it right. So here it is and hopefully its good. And don't worry! It isn't the end. One more chapter and then this story of mine will be complete! YAY!
