Chapter 25: Father vs. Daughter

Okay so here's the next chapter as promised I don't know how good it will be because I am not to great at fight scenes but here goes nothing, oh and thanks you to all that support me. But here's something that I find rather interesting that kind of made me think about my A/N. New topic in my Health class, TEENAGERS WHO COMMIT SUICIDE, I found that highly ironic, but here's the chapter. R&R

Sakura looked at her father with a dark look, "Let's dance," Sakura growled as her hand reached into her pouch to take out one of her newer puppets.

"Sounds fun." Sasori replied as he too brought out his puppet, "Lets see who gets the best one."

At the same moment two large bursts of smoke surrounded them and when they cleared each had a puppet both of which looked like they had just been made.

"I made this one especially for you Father…" Sakura said as she admired something of a replica of her father except the hair was a deep purple. "Hope you don't mind I fashioned him after you, so I will always remember you after your dead." She then pulled the strings and the purple Sasori snapped into a ready position.

Sasori chuckled, "Not at all, as a matter of fact I'll take that one along with your prized puppet." His puppet also in it's ready position.

"You will never touch this one, I promise you that." Sakura hissed and then once again twitched her fingers.

Sasori smirked, "GO!"

Sakura's puppet flew toward him within a second of his proclamation of a start. "I WILL WIN!" She yelled as it struck at Sasori in rapid succession avoiding the scorpion tail and aiming for as many of the weak points in Sasori's armour.

"Tch. Is that all you can do, my Dear?" He asked as suddenly the ground began to crack under Sakura.

'Dammit!' Sakura thought as she sprung out of the way as a second puppet of Sasori's burst from the ground and just missed hitting her. 'If I'm right I have to make sure to avoid hitting any lethal parts of his puppets, they must all have poison on them.' She then dodged another attack, 'Looks like I may have to change tactics.' She smirked and then lunged to the side dodging yet another attack but also pulling out her scroll and sealing her puppet away.

"DODGE THIS!" She yelled and her fist flew back as she crouched and smashed her fist into the dirt focusing her chakra into the ground. The large cracks that exploded from where her fist hit the ground and all the way around the cave. Her lips twitched as the chakra made it to it's point right under her father. "Have fun…"

Sasori gasped inaudibly, 'Damn,' He thought as he jumped to avoid the ground implosion.

"GOT CHA!" Sakura yelled as she flew from the side right at him.

Sasori's eyes narrowed as he turned, "No got you." He said as the scorpion tail sliced through the air and through Sakura's abdomen.

Sakura's eyes widened, 'He… He…' She then smiled as she hit the ground and slid across, her eyes closing as she swore under her breath as something broke.

"How sad just one fatal strike and I win." Sasori sighed as he walked to Sakura's side and looked down on her. "I'll take my prize now." He said and began to reach down to grab her pouches.

Sakura smirked, "Never let your guard down…" She coughed as blood spilled from the corners of her mouth.

Sasori's eyes lifted but before he could do anything the ground suddenly exploded and sent him flying, "Rule number one: Never let your guard down, even if the enemy is dying." Sakura coughed then disappeared in a puff of smoke.

As the dust cleared the real on stood in the middle of the massive crater she had just made and watched as her fathers armour broke into shards of wood.

The real Sasori finally stood after a few minutes, "Nicely done, but I won't let you fool me again." He said.

"If you did I would lose all respect I hold for you."

He glared at her, "You won't win you know… You are to young and have not been around long enough to learn how everything goes." He then raised his hand a large black scroll light held in his hand.

Sakura stepped back in surprise, "So you're really going to use your prize on me?" She asked as she too reached for her own larger scroll, "Then to make this even why not both use our strongest."

She smiled slightly but suddenly stopped as she heard footsteps right behind her, "Sakura, let me fight him…" The elderly voice of Chiyo ordered.

Sakura looked over her shoulder, "No… He is my opponent not yours…"

"I am your elder and his grandmother, I deserve to be able to fight him."

"I told you no… He is my father, and this is our bet, we will fight and I will not lose to him… Nor will you take over for me… Since there is no need for it." Sakura glared her eyes darkening as her anger began to boil.

"But, you are not yet--- Not what?" Sakura interrupted her teeth clenched, "My fight not yours…."

"Sakura please."

"NO!"

"Never turn your back on your opponent…" The voice whispered in Sakura's ear.

Sakura's eyes widened as she realized her mistake, 'Dammit…' She thought as the blade sliced through her skin and Chiyo let out a yell of horror.

Sakura dropped to the ground in a heap, as she suddenly couldn't move, 'D-D-Dammit….'
