Chapter 26
WHERE TAYUYA IS
"Wonder what the originals doing but never kind that...", Zero thinks and turns too Tayuya looking at her sadly.
"Zero...", Tayuya says shocked and it becomes anger as she pulls her arm away and jumps back.
"If only i wasn't a clone. Sorry I'm late, I was creating a medicine to use on Kimimaro", Zero says making Tayuya's eyes widen at this.
Zero steps forward looking at Tayuya sadly.
"What has that snake bastard done to you Tayuya...", Zero says to her sadly which she glares at Zero angrily.
"I don't want to hear it. Because of you I suffered, Lord Orochimaru gave me power, and I'll use that to kill you", Tayuya says putting her mouth to her flute.
"The sound of the flute summons her genjutsu", Shikamaru says which Zero nods.
"I know. I taught her how to use the flute", Zero says shocking Shikamaru.
"But yet, I hate seeing her... Tayuya... You used to live playing the flute, but now you put no feeling into it", Zero says which Tayuya glares at Zero and both fall under the genjutsu. Zero sees himself wrapped in chains while he's starting to melt.
"I have to say Tayuya, you've gotten much stronger", Zero says as Tayuya jumps straight at Zero with a Kunai in hand. Shikamaru is watching unable to move.
Tayuya thrusts her Kunai forward stabbing Zero in the stomach back before age pulls back she feels two arms wrap around her making her eyes widen. Zero is currently hugging Tayuya shocking her and Shikamaru.
NARUTO OST 5-KIMIMARO'S THEME
"Where is that loud mouth, fun, little girl I cared so much about", Zero says to her with blood coming from his mouth.
"Shut your mouth! You abandoned me!", Tayuya says angrily and deepens the Kunai making Zero cough up blood.
"I'll kill you then the original", Tayuya says angrily which Zero looks down sadly.
"I understand...", Zero said to her.
"NO YOU DON'T! EVER SINCE I WAS KIDNAPPED, I'VE ALWAYS BEEN WAITING FOR YOU TOO SAVE!", Tayuya screams which she has tears in her eyes and and she stabs the Kunai even more into Zero.
"Orochimaru threatened to kill you if I tried to attack the village aiming to kill him but... That's not enough...", Zero says making Tayuya's eyes widen as she feels drops of water on her face. When she looks up, she sees Zero, crying.
"I'm sorry... I'm a poor excuse for a father... I couldn't save my brother, I couldn't save my best friend... And worst of all I couldn't save you... Why is it that I can never save the people closest to me... If Anko were to die... I would've turned out just like Madara... Please. Hate me, keep stabbing me, but please... Please just... Just come home...", Zero says shocking Tayuya completely.
"I don't want to lose you, we may not be flesh and blood but... I consider you my daughter... That will never change...", Zero says while Tayuya looks down sadly as well as deactivating her curse mark.
"Why... Why do you consider me your daughter after all I've done, I'm the one who helped kill the third hokage, so why?", Tayuya says which she drops the Kunai.
"Ever since I first met you, you've been alone. No family, no friends, no one... I wanted to... I wanted to help-no, I wanted to save you from falling into darkness like I have... You... Are a kind hearted girl even if you don't show it... You see Tayuya Uzumaki, you are who you are... And that's the person I consider to be one of the most precious people in my life that I would be willing to die to protect...", Zero says and Tayuya begins to cry shedding tears.
"Dad... I... I want to go home...", Tayuya says crying and Zero nods holding her.
"Yeah... Me too...", Zero says and Tayuya passes out dropping the flute which Zero picks it up then picks Tayuya up bridal style.
THEME END
"I'll take you too the hospital... Tayuya has no serious injury so I'll be taking her home...", Zero says confusing Shikamaru.
"But she's an event-", Shikamaru stops feeling a cold chakra coming from Zero. Zero turns to Shikamaru showing his EMS.
"She is my responsibility. If the council asks, tell them if they even try to take it kill her. I'll kill yoi all without mercy...", Zero says which Shikamaru nods sweating.
"Lets go", Zero says putting his hand on Shikamaru's shoulder and they swirl away.
BACK TO THE ORIGINAL ZERO
Zero blinks in surprise gaining his clones memories and smiles with happiness. Zero steps in front of Lee.
"Lord Hokage...", Lee says surprised.
"Hokage... So your the new hokage huh. Digital shrapnel!", Kimimaro yells firing his finger tips at Zero which just pass right through his surprising Kimimaro.
Just call me Zero", Zero said to Kimimaro with his hands crossed.
"What just happened? I thought that was a direct hit yet it passed right through him?", Kimimaro thinks not understanding.
Lee gets up off the ground she gets in a fighting stance making Zero glance at him seeing blood coming from his left arm.
"That's enough Lee. I can handle this...", Zero says looking back at Kimimaro.
"As you wish Lord Hokage...", Lee says taking a few steps back understanding.
"Do not let your guard down, he uses his bones to attack!", Lee says which Zero nods.
"I know, I read his file", Zero says which Kimimaro's eyes narrow at that.
"The new hokage of the leaf village, Zero Uchiha. You wield the sharingan", Kimimaro says she his bones starts receding back into him as well as the wounds healing when the bones receded from.
Kimimaro sticks his hands out which Zero's eyes narrow and the Susanoo appears sticking its hand out making Kimimaro's eyes widen as he jumps up in the air.
"Digital Shrapnel!", Kimimaro yells firing his finger tips at Zero but it was blocked by the Susanoo forming a lower body. The Susanoo sticks out another hand heading for Kimimaro which he dodges again and jumps back.
"The Susanoo, I've heard of this once. His abilities aren't like other Uchiha. Getting past the Susanoo won't be easy", Kimimaro thinks calmly landing on the ground.
"Zero Uchiha, the first Uchiha to become hokage, its quite foolish isn't it?", Kimimaro says while Zero just looks at him unimpressed.
"Your nothing without that Susanoo!", Kimimaro says rguch he dodges its hand but another one forms making Kimimaro's eyes sudden getting knocked away by it. But marks starts to appear on Kimimaro's body making Zero's eyes narrow at this.
"The curse mark huh. The ability to regenerate bones and use them", Zero says looking at Kimimaro with his EMS.
"I underestimated you. But that's the past time I'll be hit by you Susanoo.
"Really huh", Zero says she starts swirling away confusing Kimimaro and Lee seeing him disappear. From above Kimimaro a swirl appears making him look up to see Zero with his Susanoo sctivated holding a giant rasengan making Kimimaro's eyes widen as Zero rams the rasengan into Kimimaro making him spit out blood and there's an explosion which Zero jumps back to Lee standing ok front of him with the Susanoo activated. But Zero's eyes widen seeing a orange light cone from Kimimaro making his eyes narrow.
"Here it comes", Zeeo thinks as he sees a tail come from the smoke making Lee's eyes widen and from it Kimimaro comes running out of it straight at Zero making Lee's eyes widen at the form.
Zero has his arms crossed watching Kimimaro run towards him as Susanoo but the Susanoo has two swords appear and thrusts them forward which Kimimaro dodges but suddenly a bone comes from the grounds which Zero's eyes widens but it passes through him. Zero's eyes widen seeing Kimimaro run around the Susanoo going after Lee.
"Damn it!", Zero thinks and his eyes narrow as the Susanoo grows another arms and hand and grabs Kimimaro then begins trying to crush his but it won't work because of the bones. Zero throws Kimimaro back which he lands on his feet.
"Is that the best you can do with your ultimate defense? In very disappointed", Kimimaro says which Zero just shakes his head.
"That's not my ultimate defense...", Zero says confusing Kimimaro.
"What do you mean?", Kimimaro says as Zero smiles while his Susanoo disappears. Zero sticks out two fingers.
"I have two Kekkei Genkai's, one is my Sharingan while the other", Zero says which armor starts forming on him making Kimimaro's and Lee's eyes widen at this. (Look up the White Knight Chronicles, he looks just like the White Knight)
"My other is to create very strong armor, this is from the "Knight Clan" they died out after facing the Senju and Uchiha at the same time, they were considered to be the strongest clan for there abilities", Zero says which Kimimaro's eyes barrier and he grabs the bone on his back which is coming out.
Kimimaro then pulls it out fully making Zero's eyes widen seeing Kimimaro pull his own spine out of him.
"Clematis Dance, first the Vine", Kimimaro said which he yells and swings it at Zero which it wraps around him while he still wears his army.
"Then the flower", Kimimaro said which his left hand has a spike through the palm made of bone and it keeps growing until his hand turns into a swirly kind of pointy bone which is big.
"This bone is my strongest, it will boar right through you, defenses and all", Kimimaro says which he spits blood out naming Zero's eyes widen.
"I don't have much time left before he dies", Zero thinks and Kimimaro thrusts his left hand forward which it connects with the armor making sparks as Kimimaro try's to break through it. But as soon as it begins, the flower starts to crack and breaks so wart shocking Kimimaro.
"What is it made of, it's stronger then steel?", Kimimaro says not understanding the armor.
"The armor is as strong as the user. Your Kekkei Genkai is truly a powerful one", Zero says to Kimimaro.
"It belonged to the Kaguya, but now it belongs to me, and me alone", Kimimaro says.
"Your the past if your clan, were almost alike since my clan was killed off only to have three of us still alive. Maybe there's a few more if your clan members still alive out there", Zero says which Kimimaro's eyes narrow.
"My body may not lady much longer, however, I will still live on... Because, I am not alone. My existence has been absorbed into Lord Orochimaru's ambition.!that means a part of me will survive in Lord Orochimaru's heart... Forever...", Kimimaro says which Zero signs at this.
"Orochimaru has brained washed you very well. But I'll free you soon", Zero says and breaks the spine making Kimimaro's eyes widen.
"I have one, I'm using the power of sage art which your master could never use!", Zero yells running straight at Kimimaro who's eyes widen seeing snake eyes just like Orochimaru's.
Zero tackles Kimimaro to the ground holding him down by grabbing his neck.
"I know those eyes very well, there like mine when I was younger, you've lost your purpose... So why don't you find a new one... It's your life, find a new purpose", Zero says which Kimimaro!/ eyes have anger in them and pushes Zero off. Zero's armor disappears she he takes out the veil. Kimimaro grabs Zero's neck and the flower reappears on his right arm.
"Your wrong, you don't understand! I am not his pawn, he is the one, the only one who ever have my life meaning! But how could the likes of you ever understand that?!", Kimimaro yells at Zero with anger and thrusts the flower forward aiming for Zero's heart but stops and his eyes widen all the way. Before he could hit Zero, Zero stabbed something into him making Kimimaro look down to see the veil which Zero pushes it injecting it into his his heart. Kimimaro's eyes widen all the way falling backwards hitting the ground unable to move as his body is shaking.
"Orochimaru... He uses everyone to get what he wants but...", Zero says looking straight at Kimimaro.
"He has a kind side, there were a few times he could have taken my Sharingan but he never did... Like you, I was once a student like Orochimaru but...", Zero says sitting up looking at Kimimaro.
"You have friends don't you? You lost everything once, and you lost it again. How about you come with me, I'll help you come up with a new purpose. There is no purpose in life when you first think about it but no, you can make your own purpose... Don't forget, everyone in this world isn't a pawn, we're all human beings... Even the darkest most hateful people that have killed have a light inside of them", Zero says making Kimimaro's eyes widen as he passes out.
Zero makes a clone which it takes Kimimaro and looks at Lee.
"Where are you taking him?", Lee says confused.
"I'm taking him to the leaf village hospital. Lets go, Guy is gonna be worried if you don't return", Zero says which Lee nods and walks towards Zero's clone and both disappears by swirl.
Zero stands up signing and turns then starts walking towards the final valley about to swirl away but it stops suddenly making Zero's eyes widen at this.
"What?", Zero thinks and hears foot steps and turns around... Behind him is a man wearing an orange swirly mask.
"Who are you?", Zero says confused looking at the man.
"I can't allow you too interfere...", the masked man says making Zero's eyes narrow.
