Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto.

A/N: Should I even ask for review? Other than a handful people I hardly get any reviews from anyone. I did say I accept any criticism but I never said I only accept those. I like to hear a bit good things about my writing too, so that I can write with enthusiasm. What the heck, Enjoy!


[With Kiba]

Kiba took out a pill and popped it in Akamaru's mouth who immediately turned red and became more feral looking. Kiba cried, "Ninja Art: Man Beast Clone" and Akamaru changed into Kiba. Both Kiba's had elongated claws and canine teeth. Kiba jumped at his opponent from behind and swiped his hands downwards. Two hands blocked it and he was thrown away. "What the…? I know I hit him but how did he block it? When did he see it?"

[With Shikamaru]

"You did a mistake choosing me you little brat. I am Tayuya of the Sound Five." The pink haired girl said as black marks started making their ways to all over her body and made some seals, "Ninja Art: Summoning". Three giant demons appeared right behind her.

"This is gonna be a drag!" Shikamaru complained.

[With Kiba]

Both of the Kiba's shot forward and cried, "Ninja Art: Fang over Fang". They hit their opponent dead on. Their opponent took the blow and stopped their attacks as black marks crawled all around their opponent's body. "How can this be? Two of them connected with each other?" Kiba said with astonished voice.

[With Lee]

"You are strong but still just a piece of garbage that dares to meddle in Lord's affairs."The white haired man said. "Well it can't be helped. It' just trash after all, simply need cleaning."

"I believe I have a name which is Rock Lee." Lee said as he took a fighting stance. "Before we engage in battle I wish to know your name."

"Why would you even ask my name? Oh well, I am Kimimaro of the Sound Five." Kimimaro said.

"Because it's customary to know the name of someone you are about to defeat." Lee said and shot forward. He jumped and cried, "Leaf Hurricane", kicking Kimimaro who was thrown back. Kimimaro recovered and cried, "Ninja Art: Willow Dance". Bones grew out of his hands, elbow, shoulders and knees and he ran at Lee who also ran at Kimimaro.

[With Shikamaru]

Tayuya started playing her flute and the demons jumped at Shikamaru. One got right on top of Shikamaru and swung its metal club. Shikamaru stepped sideways to dodge the blow and another came right at him from his side which Shikamaru barely dodged by jumping away.

So she controls those giants with her flute, Shikamaru thought. Every attack she makes puts her in more distance. What do I do? His trains of thoughts were stopped as two demons came right at him. Shikamru looked at the oncoming attackers with wide eyes. He jumped, evading one and kicked away on another demon's head to another tree. These guys are persistent. I think I am finally starting to get the full picture here but…this won't be a cakewalk.

The one with the metal club smashed his club into the trunk Shikamaru was in and he jumped away once more. The one with thorn like weapon tied to its arms shot forward and slashed Shikamaru who had used the substitute technique to escape at the last moment. Shikamaru hid in a bush but Tayuya somehow managed to find him and sent her club wielding demon at him.

Shikamaru kept jumping away because he wanted to buy some time to execute his Shadow Possession technique but Tayuya's demons kept him on his toes. All three of them gave no time and Shikamaru could only jump away to evade their crushing blows. He was surrounded by the demons and Tayuya laughed, "Now you are trapped like a rat kid. You're done."

Each sequence she plays controls a specific movement. That's how she is manipulating her Demons like that. Shikamaru started thinking, but what do I do to counter her attacks? What do I do? Tayuya cried, "Ninja Art: Ninth Passage Demon Phantom Revolution Wave" and played her flute with a completely different tone. All three of the demons opened their sewed mouth and materialized spirits with teeth here and there on their bodies came forth, rushing straight at Shikamaru.

Shikamaru threw some shurikens but they passed right through it and one hit Shikamaru's hand and it seemed it bit off a bit of his chakra. Shikamaru jumped on another tree and just as the spirits came in contact, he jumped away as an explosion occurred and went into hiding. Those white things…when I threw my shurikens they passed right through them. And it looks like they carve for chakra. I can safely assume they are also chakra with an appetite. I can't engage those spirits that's for sure, so I have to take care of the one who controls them. But how? With those demons, it's impossible to get close. Shikamaru thought and took his thinking pose.

[With Kiba]

Akamaru was kicked away with three legs as his opponent cried, "Ninja Art: Triple Legs Barrage". Akamaru dropped his transformation and the attacker laughed, "So you are the real one huh?" he said and threw a punch, crying, "Ninja Art: Triple Fist Barrage". Kiba was thrown back and smacked into a rock. He once more ran at Kiba and threw a punch that looked like as if there were three arms. Kiba sidestepped and saw the damage his opponent's punch made, the rock shattered where his punches made hit.

"My brother Ukon and I work in perfect harmony, in fact it's painfully perfet." His opponent said. "Usually he sleeps in me but when the moment calls for it, he comes out to play. He can emerge anywhere from my body." Ukon's face emerged from his brother's chest and head butted Kiba and threw him away with a triple legs barrage. "Sakon, enough! It's time to finish this." Ukon said as black marks covered him turning his skin into dark orange in color, growing his teeth and a horn formed on his right forehead as he took the right side of the shared body. "You are so impatient brother…very well." Sakon also turned into the same thing his brother did only he had his horn at the left side.

Sakon-Ukon launched forward and threw a punch which Kiba blocked and was kneed at his gut. Kiba held on them as Akamaru jumped and Kiba cried, "Dynamic Marking". Akamaru spun and urinated on Sakon-Ukon. Some of them even went on Sakon-Ukon's eyes and Kiba jumped away with Akamaru on his head. He made a seal and cried, "Ninja Art: Inuzuka Style Man Beast Transformation Combo…." A giant wolf with two heads emerged and Kiba's voice was heard, "…Two Headed Wolf".

It jumped and spun as once more Kiba's voice was heard, "Ninja Art: Wolf Fang over Fang". The spinning attack slammed into Sakon-Ukon who separated into two pieces. They got up, showing unique plate like metal hands and legs which they missed. Akamaru and Kiba both were worried. We have only one chance at this boy! Kiba thought and once more he jumped, spinning. He cried, "Ninja Art: Wolf Fang over Fang" and shot at Sakon and Ukon. They made a seal and slammed their hands on the ground, "Ninja Art: Summoning".

A massive gate with a demonic face emerged right in front of them and intercepted Kiba's attack. He fell down and Sakon and Ukon jumped to deal a blow when Akamaur opened his eyes and urinated on Sakon's eyes. Kiba immediately cried, "Ninja Art: Tunneling Fang" and slammed right into Ukon. "Akamaru….." Kiba looked at his partner who was kicked away by Sakon. Sakon was screaming in agony, "I can't see….I can't fucking see…What the hell did he do my eyes? They're burning."

Ukon emerged from Kiba's shoulder, "That last attack was really fierce. Good thing I managed to get into your body. Don't bother resisting, I broke my body into tiny molecular level, bonding into your body and forming into my own self in your body. We are slowly fusing and I will kill you as I take over your body destroying all your cells. You…." Before Ukon could finish Kiba took out a kunai and drove it through his belly. "Well then…what happens now?" Kiba coughed up blood and Ukon did the same. "Time for you to die." Kiba said with a smirk.

"A-are you…insane?" Ukon said with a fearful voice. He screamed in pain as Kiba dug his kunai deeped and Kiba also screamed. He took out his kunai and said, "It hurts doesn't it? Well then, let's finish this!" Kiba aimed his kunai at his heart and Ukon immediately left Kiba's body. Kiba lifted his left hand and threw the kunai in his right hand at Ukon who blocked it with his armored hand. The kunai dug into his hand and Kiba kicked at the kunai's hilt driving it deeper and threw two smoke bombs which exploded immediately.

Kiba hid behind a rock with Akamaru. Ukon saw an Akamaru dummy and thought it was the real one, it exploded just as Ukon went close to it and numerous kunais shot at Ukon. He had several deep wounds and he still had a good amount of kunais impaled on his plated hand and leg. He went back in Sakon's body to heal. Kiba started to think of a way to escape, at least he had to make sure that Akamaru lived and flinched when he smelt a familiar scent. Wh-why in the world would they be here? What's going on?, He thought and jumped into the water that was flowing right where he was battling leaving his jacket behind on the rock. He made his way to a rocky river bank.

[With Shikamaru]

Shikamaru was done thinking and took out all the ninja tools he had on him. He threw a kunai with a paper bomb attached to it at Tayuya and moved to another place. It dug right in the trunk Tayuya was on and exploded. Tayuya jumped on another tree who didn't notice that a kunai attached to a flash bomb was right on the trunk on top of her. Shikamaru threw a kunai at Tayuya which the spiked handed demon blocked.

Tayuya sent the bandaged demon at Shikamaru who already left that place and had a wire tied to a trunk which had a kunai. He let go of the string and that kunai shot at Tayuya which the thorn handed demon blocked again. Four more kunais were shot from all over which the thorn handed demon blocked again. He threw one more kunai and jumped right in front of Tayuya who sent all her demons at Shikamaru. The kunai Shikamaru had thrown cut the string attached to the flash bomb and it exploded.

Shikamaru immediately made a seal, "Ninja Art: Shadow Possession" and took over all the demons in one fell sweep. Tayuya was shocked to see someone's intellect was this high, she tried playing her flute but nothing happened. Tayuya's demons were under full control of Shikamaru. He shot forward and Tayuya made a seal and cried, "Release". All the demons dispelled and it looked bad for Shikamaru. Once more Tayuya was about to make a move but Shikamaru smirked, "Shadow Possession success!" as Tayuya now was under Shikamaru's control.

Tayuya laughed, "You are impressive little punk, I'll give you that. To push me this much…" and black marks formed all over her body fusing and making her skin brown and a set or horns grew on her head as her hat shredded into pieces. Her irises also turned yellow and she started to move even though she was under Shikamaru's technique. Shikamaru finally panicked, he was about to lose this one. He immediately made a seal and cried, "Ninja Art: Suffocating Shadow". Shadows of hand wrapped around Tayuya's body as they made their ways to Tayuya's neck.

Tayuya struggled and started to play her flute after crying, "Ninja Art: Phantom Chains of Fantasia". Shikamaru lost his hold on Tayuya and he felt as if the whole world blurred with him being tied with sturdy ropes disabling his movements. He looked around him and found him in a wasteland with skulls and red sand and ropes came from the sky. His hand started melting off from his bone and then even his bone melted off. He screamed in agony as Tayuya kept playing her flute with a smirk. She jumped right in front of Shikamaru and was about to deal a finishing blow when she was stabbed in the belly.

"H-how did you?" Tayuya asked with surprise filled voice and saw Shikamaru had broken out of the Illusion by breaking his own finger with his shadow. Shikamaru immediately trapped her with his Suffocating Shadow once more. Shikamaru took his kunai out from Tayuya's belly and was about to drive it through her heart but Tayuya blocked it as it drove through her palm. "You are really good but in the end you are just a worm", Tayuya said. Shikamaru gritted his teeth and manipulated his shadow to her neck. Tayuya also gritted her teeth and pushed forward, trying to break free from Shikamaru's hold.
