AN: I just added a little bit to this chapter because I didn't think that it went with the next chapter. I hope you still like it, though.
Naruto could feel his whole body burning. It felt like when Kyuubi used to take control of his body against his will, but so much worst. He could feel the chakras of all nine of the spirits, as they sacrificed themselves for this jutsu, and then burst forth from every pore in his skin as a flame that could not be doused. He could hear the screams of those he was murdering and could only hope that the others had kept their promise and kept any innocents out of his path.
Everyone who was caught in his chakra shield was dying.
Including himself.
Sasuke didn't even realize that he was dropping to his knees until they hit the ground beneath them. It was all over now. Everything that he had always been working for was being destroyed right before his eyes and there was nothing that he could do about it.
"He's going to be okay, though, right?" he could vaguely hear Sakura asking him. "Everything's going to be okay, right?"
Sasuke shook his head. Nothing was going to be okay. Not anymore.
