AN: Wasssupppp! Well since the new Naruto chapter came out today I'll post a new Nobuki chapter today too. Plus, I was looking at my views yesterday and saw aside from my first chapter Arc 2 Chapter 20 was really popular, smh. You guys are sooo cool. Anyways I'll let you read the next chapter.
Chapter 21- The Plan! The Shadow Hunts!
Nobuki stood at his window watching the sun come up, the hour was over. Kishi left earlier to go home and get ready plus Mishi was filling in for her. Also, the embarrassment from the peepers was too much for her and she left before something else happened. Nobuki was standing his black armor that had been refined and was less prone to get banged up. He knew the plan and watched as he saw Kohaku walked out of the apartment building. Nobuki remembered what the Hokage said the night before.
-The Night Before-
"So we're bait essentially?" Nobuki asked. They were at the small table in the Master Toads shack. Lord Fukasaku and Lady Shima were eating her bug stew while Kohaku and Nobuki with the Hokage sat talking about what they were going to do tomorrow.
"Yes and no. You are going to stop him from advancing into the Leaf and divert his attention. Then you are to distract him until Leaf and Cloud enforcements arrive," the Hokage explained.
"Bait," Kohaku and Nobuki agreed nodding to each other.
"Anyways, you will leave one hour after we arrive," the Hokage instructed.
"So again why is the Cloud coming?" Kohaku asked.
"I'm getting targeted by an ex-Cloud ninja and I'm from the Cloud," Nobuki explained. Kohaku nodded reevaluating the situation and then nodded once more. Lord Fukasaku nodded and Lady Shima spoke up.
"I remember fifteen years ago that Shadow fella was a real threat back then, but then some event happened at the Cloud then he disappeared. He was destroying small villages and ready to attack the Hidden Villages, but then for no reason disappeared. The Cloud had no explanation didn't even know that he was there," Shima explained.
"Well, I think I know what happened," Nobuki said. The Hokage looked at him interested and Kohaku looked down knowing what he was about to say.
"He found my mom in the Hidden Cloud and then they made me," Nobuki said with malice in his voice. The Hokage's pipe nearly fell out of his mouth and Lady Shima stopped stirring her bowl.
"Nobuki, boy that seems farfetched," Fukasaku said.
"Fukasaku Sensei, I heard the Shadow say himself that he was his father and Kurama even felt the same type of chakra from them," Kohaku said trying to hush everyone up. Nobuki was literally shaking and he had to step out for a second. Kohaku followed him and stood behind him.
"Bro, it's cool. You can't choose who you were born from," Kohaku consoled.
"I know I can't, but I still hate being the son of such of piece of crap."
"Well, I can relate with you. My dad wasn't exactly a nice guy and he forced my mom into marrying him or he would kill me before I was born. Right after I was born my mom killed him and herself and by law I became a Nendo and I hate my last name. I can't change it until I'm eighteen and then I can take that name off of me and become a Sarutobi," Kohaku explained. Nobuki turned around shocked and nodded and they walked back in the shack.
-Current Time-
Nobuki walked towards the door and stepped outside his apartment and walked to the waiting Kohaku. Nobuki nodded and the two ran past the opening vendors ready for a fight. They roof hopped and soon got to the Village gates. They nodded at the guards and they ran on.
"So we go all out since the beginning?" Kohaku asked.
"I don't know, but all I know I'm killing my dad."
"Whoa, bro. That's intense. I mean a little intense for you."
"He's gonna wish he never met my mom and never helped create me."
"Yo, I know that you feeling the pressure of this fight, but don't go overboard and make sure you control your feelings because Son could take over your body with your hate."
"Kohaku, trust me I have control of the situation," Nobuki said nodding and they ran on the path. They weren't even sure if this was the right way not even Kurama could sense the Shadow, but Nobuki knew they had some scouts somewhere and the Shadow would be the first one to see him. Nobuki set his mind on one thought and that was he would take this threat down at once.
"Watch out man!" Kohaku yelled tackling Kohaku taking them both to the side. A blast of shadow laser blasted the ground where they were standing. Nobuki stood pulling a scroll out hurriedly summoning his chakra jacket. Nobuki threw it on and disposed of the scroll. Kohaku stayed on the ground looking on from below looking for scouts. Nobuki stood in the middle of the path his arms out stretched.
"C'mon dad, you know you want to kill me as much as I want to kill you," Nobuki laughed. Kohaku looked at Nobuki who was laughing and closed his eyes. He was observing an irate Nobuki a side he had never seen and knowing his friend it was a side that Nobuki never wanted them to see.
"What's the matter son? I see you got the Yoshida anger," the Shadow's voice rung out everywhere.
"Come say that to my face you idiotic excuse for a shinobi," Nobuki goaded. A shadow laser shot from the east from over Kohaku's head, but no one moved. Kohaku didn't even check behind him knowing the Shadow was trying something. Nobuki ducked being careful to look out for a sneak attack.
"A little jumpy, eh son?" the Shadow laughed stepping into the light the sky starting to get cloudy. A beam of light hit Nobuki from the sky his dad still in the shadows. Kohaku stepped into the trees looking for the Shadow's men. Nobuki was standing ahead of his father his back to the Leaf his father facing the Leaf.
"You don't touch the village you understand old man?" Nobuki asked.
"Why? Do you have those trivial bonds back there? A lover? Friends? Parental figures?" Or that girl Moniton nearly took out?" the Shadow asked knowing he hit a bad chord on the last one.
"Don't you dare talk about Kishi with your dirty mouth!" Nobuki yelled furiously lightning chakra surging around him.
"Calm down, if it means so much to you I'll stay away from the village, but if you die, I'm going to lay waste to that whole place starting with the girl Kishi Inuzuka," the Shadow wickedly chuckled. Nobuki's jaw clenched at the thought of his dad killing Kishi. His Lightning Cloak powered up through his emotion as Nobuki walked forward towards his dad.
"Ooo, someone is mad."
Nobuki walked slowly and coming into his dad's face and stared him down. Nobuki's fists balled up and his father looked at him a smile or more like a sinister grin.
"You don't touch Kishi. I don't care how you found out who she was, but if you even think about getting close to her I'm going to kill you right here and now," Nobuki growled. Nobuki jumped back as the Shadow started to raise his hands.
"Water Style: Water Lake Jutsu," Nobuki said blowing water making a Snake hand sign. A huge blast of water was aimed for the Shadow who dodged easily and laughed. Nobuki's jutsu took effect and the Shadow started to sink.
"Lightning Style: Wave of Inspiration," Nobuki said making a Release hand a wave of lightning shocking the water in turn shocking the Shadow. The Shadow's clone dissipated in black energy. Kohaku burst out the forest running next to Nobuki. Nobuki released his Lightning Cloak.
"C'mon they have more people than we anticipated we got to get farther from the village," Kohaku said dragging Nobuki along. Nobuki released the jutsu and they ran farther down the path.
"Don't think you're getting away," the Shadow's voice echoed.
