Volume 4: Episode 32: Love VS Vengeance! A Desire to Care!
In the previous episode of DKR:
Yugi and Ichigo finally found where Kaiba was but their biggest problem is they can't get in the building due to the security. It's then that Ichigo came up with a plan to use her ability to become a cat to enter the building. Agreeing with the plan, Yugi summoned Dracokin and asked of him to kiss his girlfriend. Grunting, the dragon agreed and kissed Ichigo. In doing so, the cat girl transforms but instead of her cute black fur cat becomes a rather larger, savage-like cat that Dracokin referred as a Laguz. Almost acting on instinct and excitement now, Ichigo dashed and leaped into the building like no cat could ever perform.
While this was going on, Sasuke engaged Judai and Ed who both struggled badly. Even when Usagi transformed into Sailor Moon and Mamoru as Tuxedo Mask, the two couldn't even land a blow at Sasuke. That was until Kurosaki arrived and enraged how this guy is supposed to be Naruto's closest friend challenged the Uchiha to fight him. Sasuke, uncaring about that name, accepted and the two commenced their battle.
As that went on, Ichigo arrived to Kaiba's meeting room and using the fact that he lied that she was his pet, the meeting went EXACTLY like Kaiba wanted. He offered to owe her back this once since he wanted the meeting to end the way he wanted it. With that done, Yugi and Kaiba talked and Kaiba, grumpy like always, accepted to help a little girl only because Momomiya was useful. However Ichigo with her new senses picked up danger and told Yugi of it as she rushed off to where the others were.
It was a close fight with Bankai-Hollow Mask versus Curse Mark Version 2 but Sasuke managed to injury Kurosaki more so due to his regeneration ability from absorbing Orochimaru. Without anyone getting in their way, Sasuke proceeded to capture Chibiusa.
Is there any way to save Chibiusa before it's too late?
And now the conclusion... last left off in the previous episode:
Yugi sweat drops rather annoyed for once. It's one thing that he let Ichigo run off on her own to confront a guy who is strong in his own right but worst forced to explain what's been going on to Kaiba… and now he's forced to take Kaiba and Mokuba where the fight is happening. Not to mention he decided to drive his already high speed Blue-Eyes sports car into a traffic jam.
"I kinda wished you didn't drive in this part of town, Kaiba-kun.'' The tricolor head complains kindly since he did tell him to take the last turn than go into this street. Kaiba scoffs narrowing his eyes at him and responds coldly. ''Last I checked I have my driver's license, Yugi.''
Yugi rolls his eyes a bit on that comment replying still pretty kind. ''Hmm just saying.''
Kaiba scoffs again at his kind nature. He then says annoyed Yugi is still in his car. ''Can't you just fly to where the others need help against this Sasuke guy?''
The tricolor head frowns a bit, planning to sort of do that but since he's in here if he gets off and does use his powers, he'll get noticed. Worst he can't let that happen, remembering Light and what he's capable of doing to him or anyone else.
''Too many people might spot me.'' Yugi says putting it in small words. Kaiba snarls at such nonsense especially coming from the guy who would save others even risking his own body.
''You're really pathetic. You have powers and fail to even use them to protect those that matter to you.'' He proclaims insulting his rival.
''…'' Yugi just stares back at him silent, knowing it's a waste to argue with him. Still, remembering what Ichigo told him… he is hesitating in using just Burst Limit. Is he really that-
Suddenly his train of thought stops as the three heard something landing on the roof of the car.
''W-what was that?'' Mokuba questions surprised and somewhat unease what it was. Kaiba turns around and makes a firm glare at the annoyance of Naruto, or well one upside down with his head waving an upside down hello. Yugi sweat drops not surprised it's him.
''Yo! I saw you riding this thing, ya know!'' Naruto tells Yugi not noticing Kaiba until he did and gasps out causing him to fall off the car. Yugi and Mokuba sweat drop as the back door opens up by Naruto who crawls himself in there and closes it before shouting angrily at Kaiba's back. ''AW NO, not you!''
''The feeling is mutual.'' Kaiba grunts furious this idiot let himself in without permission. He makes the loser Jonouchi have more manners than this other idiot.
Yugi giggles a bit by Naruto's way of acting until he startles that he's here than not where almost everyone is confronting Sasuke. He then asks without thinking. ''Wait no one called you yet Naruto-kun?''
Naruto blinks by that and asks puzzled. ''On what?''
The tricolor head then makes a face and wishes he could face palm himself. Atem and Yin-Yang Dragon both sigh knowing well that if Naruto hears Sasuke's name mention, his one and only focus of the time is to find him and try to bring him back to the village, his home.
Sighing at his carelessness, Yugi eyes him firmly and informs him with a serious face. ''… Sasuke-kun is here.''
Naruto's carefree face slowly changes into a shocked expression. Trying his best to not get mad, he demands at the tricolor head as he gets up fast at his seat. ''Where!''
Kaiba snaps at the idiot banging the roof of his car with his empty head that he shouts at him. ''SIT!''
''I HAVE NO TIME! SASUKE IS-'' Naruto starts yelling not going to waste time to save his friend only for Kaiba to yell even more serious as if he'll kill someone. ''SIT!''
Naruto sweat drops heavily and sits down immediately. Gritting his teeth at the damn traffic, something he'll have to personally deal with later, Kaiba proclaims as he presses a switch on his car's computer. ''Screw this, hover mode time Mokuba.''
Mokuba sweat drops bucking up his seat belt.
''Wait hover mode?'' Yugi and Naruto both utter out very confused. Suddenly the car starts shaking almost violently but it was really it's being pull up by hidden hover energy beams down below it. The beams stabilized the car as its wheels turn over on the bottom ends and start hovering with repulsors popping out from the rims of the wheels.
Kaiba laughs as his car driving wheel pulls inside a hidden compartment and pulls out a new steering wheel or rather with piloting control wheels. He grabs on them and starts hovering over the traffic with the people in their cars and outside watch with their jaws dropping.
''HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE, YA KNOW!'' Naruto yells out freaking out by this witchcraft. Kaiba smirks and simply answers in his own words as he drives forward at top speed. ''Because screw the rules.''
''THAT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE!'' Naruto screams as his head slams on the back of the car not wearing his seat belt. Mokuba sweat drops feeling bad for him. Seto, however, just laughs for once for the idiot's misfortune.
Yugi sweat drops heavily though he's worry how the others are doing and how his Strawberry Kitten will handle Sasuke.
Chibiusa watches pretty frightened. None have been able to this black haired man from trying to capture her, not even Mamoru or the spiky orange headed guy.
Suigetsu lets out a sigh actually relief this will end soon. Sasuke just needs take the girl, hand her to the Dark Lord and he gets Itachi. And if that becomes the case, then Kisame will likely be caught too.
Judai, grunting from before, starts moving. Smirking a bit weakened, he tries drawing his card. Ed sees that and tries to follow his leap slowly trying to clap his hands together.
Before the two of them could do anything, Sasuke who sees them immediately with his Sharingan eyes, unleashes Chidori Senbon upon the two. Both Judai and Ed scream out as the electric needles strikes across their bodies, shocking them.
''GAAW!'' The two yell with Judai yelling out finding multiple needles hitting his dueling shoulder, really HATING that from last time. ''AGAIN THE SHOULDER!''
Kurosaki, pretty unable to move either, sweat drops by Judai's reaction though he too is trying to move with no luck. Sasuke scoffs at the brown-orange head's reaction as he walks towards the pink haired girl.
''Now you're coming with-'' Sasuke begins to proclaim only to be stopped by a slightly crouched Tuxedo Mask, panting weakly and injury.
''Never!'' He yells holding his cane rather shaken. Sasuke looks at him before suddenly punching him across the face, causing him to fall backwards. Sailor Moon, still pretty paralyzed, watches really scared as she yells. ''Tuxedo Mask!''
Tuxedo Mask, weakly and bleeding from his nose, gets up not defeated. He declares still holding tightly on his cane, refusing to give up. ''I won't let you take Chibiusa. I swear it!''
Chibiusa watches almost starting to cry, almost remembering what happened to her world and her mistake.
''Mamo-chan.'' She says mentally, really scared he might die.
Tuxedo Mask charges at Sasuke who just evades his cane swing without trying and kicks him back onto the ground.
''You're not even worth fighting.'' Sasuke proclaims unimpressed by the man. He may be somewhat skilled but he has no powers to even be considered a threat. Tuxedo Mask pants trying to pull himself up again. He knows he's not strong, he knows he has no powers, and he knows nothing but dead weight or a shield for Usagi, but he won't ever stop fighting for those he will protect.
''I-I might not have the same powers Sailor Moon has…'' Tuxedo Mask begins stating acknowledge that Usagi is much stronger than him in every way but that doesn't change how much he will protect her. He then adds declaring proudly. ''But I refuse to give up!''
Sasuke stares down at the fool though he sees a strange light surfacing around Tuxedo Mask. This slightly surprises him as the man stands up.
''I will…'' Tuxedo Mask begins to speak up, feeling this energy building up and coursing through his body. ''PROTECT THEM!''
Raises his right hand forward, Tuxedo Mask shouts with all of his might. ''Tuxedo La Smoking Bomber!''
Tuxedo Mask sends a blast of white energy with his right palm. Sasuke watches somewhat surprised not aware he has powers as the attack hits him instant and consumes him. Karin and Suigetsu panic not believing this.
Ed drops his jaw as did Kurosaki with Judai chuckling.
"Awesome Tuxedo Mask!'' Sailor Moon and Chibiusa both shout out joyfully. Tuxedo Mask pants heavily as he stares at his gloved hand, never feeling anything like that before but then again, possibly his past-self did.
''So this is my power.'' He tells himself still amazed. Before he could take in what he learned, Tuxedo Mask hears a voice speaking behind. ''Didn't know you could do that.''
This shocked him as he tries turning only to get slash across the shoulder. Tuxedo Mask gasps out with Sailor Moon widens her eyes in horror. ''MAMO-CHAN!''
He drops on his knees to look up, seeing Sasuke right in front of him and unscratched. Tuxedo Mask glares in pain demanding furious. ''H-how?''
Sasuke points behind him where the attack had struck him but it was actually a burned-up log.
''Body Replacement Technique.'' Sasuke states as he kicks Tuxedo Mask across the face with his foot and slams him onto the ground hard. He then threatens him done with him. ''Now stand down.''
He turns around only to hear a sound. Sasuke turns again to see Tuxedo Mask trying to get up again. The Uchiha scoffs not surprised as he mutters. ''Fine by me.''
Tuxedo Mask struggles to even be standing up as Sasuke prepares to slash him down again only for Chibiusa, no longer able to see this anymore shouts. ''DON'T!''
Everyone startles as the pink rabbit-style haired girl rushes in between Sasuke and Tuxedo Mask, raising her arms to protect Mamoru. She pleads to the black haired man in front of her. ''I won't let you hurt him!''
Sasuke just looks down at her calmly. Chibiusa eyes him really scared but tries to be courageous.
''I…'' She tries uttering out shivering, really scared but after learning from Ed about being strong she knows she can't be afraid anymore. Gulping her throat, Chibiusa yells out loudly. ''I DON'T WANT TO LOSE ANYONE ELSE AGAIN!''
This puzzled and confused everyone especially Sasuke uttering out. ''What?''
Chibiusa starts crying just thinking about it, seeing so many die and her parents… just the image of that black crystal only makes her more afraid. Sobbing, she admits her pain. ''I… lost my mama and papa.''
Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask widen their eyes with everyone else shock. Ed frowns wondering when she would finally say those words. He can tell it's hurting her a lot.
Sasuke, however, is just left stunned hearing this. This causes him to have PTSD of that night when he was just a child; the very night his clan, his family, everything he knew died and their blood is drenched on the hands and blade of his older brother who he had admired.
''Nee-san, why?!'' Sasuke, still stunned, turns to his side to see almost an afterimage of his younger self pleading to his brother only to get attacked by the very man who he tried to become.
''Foolish little brother, you're too weak. Your hate is too weak.'' Gasping for air, Sasuke touches his neck still able to remember those last words Itachi gave him before placing him in that hell of his Genjutsu. He looks back towards the sobbing Chibiusa who blinks rather confused able to see the sadness in his eyes.
''She lost her parents, like I…'' Sasuke tells himself taken back by this discovery that he couldn't even think clearly. Karin and Suigetsu can see that never actually seeing him like this.
''Why is Sasuke freezing up?'' Suigetsu questions really worry for once. It's not like the Uchiha to freeze up in the battlefield. Karin, though, forms a frown certain why he's frozen. However before she explain it her teammate, she picks up a sudden presence coming towards the Uchiha and fast.
''Sasuke, someone is coming!'' Karin yells warning Sasuke who sadly isn't paying attention to her, thinking in his thoughts. ''Is the Dark Lord aware of this? Is he testing me? How can I-''
''SASUKE!'' Sasuke immediately snaps out hearing Karin's shout. He then feels it and just barely dodges to his side. He sees with his Sharingan eyes as something black and fast just scratch a bit of his cheek.
''What?'' He utters backing away only for the thing that he can see as a black cat comes at him with its claws. Sasuke blocks them with his Katana but to his shock the cat's claws were able to push him back even when guarding. It charges again swiping its claws with Sasuke repelling them, more shock that this creature's claws can par up against his katana.
Karin panics kicking Suigetsu demanding hm. ''Suigetsu get up!''
''Yea-yea.'' Suigetsu responds with an annoying frown. He gets back up sighing and charges forward with his large blade while shouting. ''I got this!''
Sasuke sees him and backs away fast as Suigetsu slashes the cat… only for Suigetsu to panic as it is an illusion of the cat's afterimage.
''What the hell!'' Suigetsu yells in shock only to get slash across the face by the real black cat. He yells out in pain using his body to reshape the injury.
Sasuke glares getting a better image of this cat and he could tell this is no ordinary creature.
''What are you?!'' The Uchiha demands trying to slash it but the cat evades him easily. She hisses noticing Alicia still under the Genjutsu. Realizing something wrong, it dashes towards her and instead of swiping her it kisses her on the mouth with its tiny lips. This leaves everyone stunned and awkward.
''… D-did that cat just kiss Alicia?'' Ed asks rather confused. Judai, however, just smirks knowing well what that cat really is and what will happen now.
In that instant smoke explodes out of the cat surprising Suigetsu who utters out. ''Woah what?!''
Sasuke glares as he sees a figure walking out and it's Alicia, reverted back to her normal form, but coughs very puzzle.
''What the heck just happened?'' Alicia asks recalling herself falling in an endless hole just as she was about to face that Sasuke.
Kurosaki and Ed were surprise with Sailor Moon, feeling a bit better now, sighs smiling while she tries pulling the injury Tuxedo Mask and Chibiusa away.
''She broke through from the trance?'' Sasuke questions to himself not expecting that to happen. There he notices another figure and as the smoke clears away, the Uchiha widens his eyes.
''You…'' Sasuke utters out as the person revealed is Ichigo, smiling softly. This shocks Ed greatly while Sailor Moon utters in amazement. ''Cousin Ichigo-chan!''
Judai just grins with Kurosaki, still startle, realizes that Ichigo can turn into a cat. So that cat was her.
Ichigo, taking a step forward beside the very confused Alicia, stares right at the Uchiha who stares back with his normal black eyes.
"Long time huh, Sasuke-Baka Nya.'' The red cherry head says somewhat serious yet confident.
With the cat girl heroine now in the fight, is there really a chance to beat Sasuke?
Commercial Break:
Ichi: I don't know why you're here but I won't let you go off and hurt those I love, Sasuke!
Sasuke: Anyone that stands in front of my revenge, my hate, will meet a cruel end, including you Momomiya.
Everyone watches still confused that Ichigo is here now though she arrived as a cat… not to mention the kiss. Boy will Judai have a hard time explaining that part to Alicia.
"Good timing Ichigo-chan.'' Judai tells the red head Ichigo smiling weakly. Ed nods awkwardly as he adds to the cat girl. ''Kitty cat, I got a lot of questions to ask you but another time!''
Ichi eyes the others and nods as she asks them concerning. ''Are you guys okay Nya?''
Sailor Moon chuckles nervously not so much okay but relief now.
''Better now that you're here to take our places, Momomiya.'' Kurosaki tells her pretty confident she'll do fine. Alicia, thought, still feels very dazed while touching her lips like someone or something kiss her. She mutters out puzzle. ''Um I'm not sure.''
Ichi sweat drops knowing she needs to apologize to her later but tells her as advice. ''Next time careful when you stare at those Sharingan eyes Nya, Alicia-chan.''
Alicia sweat drops admitting she's not wrong though she wished she was warned beforehand. Still she takes the advice and responds kindly. ''Good to know now.''
Sasuke, with his Sharingan eyes active again, stares at the red pigtail girl able to see her cat ears and tail even with her protection ring on. He slightly smirks able to tell she's not the same one as back then.
''Ichigo Momomiya, I wasn't aware of that form of yours.'' Sasuke speaks up rather astounded. Ichigo turns glaring at him who also comments. ''Also, I see you accepted being a cat huh?''
Ichigo actually blushes but mad that he can see them. She stares at him and replies in a demanding tone. ''It's sort of new Nya. Why are you going after Chibiusa-chan? Are you working with the Dark Lord now Nya? Where's that snake jerk?! Also you have a team Nya?! Since when Nya?!''
Sasuke frowns that she also hasn't change much asking a hundred stupid questions at the same time. Still, he finally answers her question about Orochimaru. ''… I got rid of him.''
This actually surprises Ichi not expecting the dangerous snake man is dead and no less by the very person he was training to ''take'' his body as his own. Still, good riddance, at least Erika doesn't have to worry about him again. Still, that doesn't solve why Sasuke is here.
''Then why won't you go back to Konoha Nya.'' Ichi asks pretty confuse. Sasuke sighs at her cluelessness and answers her firmly. ''I have my own goals to complete first. You can guess what I'm referring about.''
The red cherry head nods frowning very aware recalling Itachi and how powerful the guy was. Even back then, she and Yugi got out of that fight just barely and that's saying much.
''Yea, I met him Nya and I get why you don't like him.'' She proclaims also recalling how confident and menacing Itachi was even if Yugi didn't feel the same way.
''Don't like him?'' Frowning at first, Sasuke begins saying before glaring enrage at the very thought of that man. ''I hate him.''
Ichi glare and calls him off for his goal. ''And that gives you the right to become the Dark Lord's lapdog and capture an innocent girl and hurt those I care for Nya!''
Sasuke stares at her coldly and says angrily. ''If Sakura told you anything about me, my revenge means more to me!''
The red cherry head just looks down frowning, very much aware about that but by Kakashi. Sakura never told her anything of that already aware how much this affects her. To think she loves a guy like that is insane; Sasuke doesn't even care to acknowledge he's hurting those he's made a bond with because his hate is that much more important. Just the thought of hate makes her stomach growl angrily.
''… Sakura is an idiot more so than Jonouchi to think you're a good person Nya.'' Ichi expresses refusing to let this man get what he wants by causing more pain to others. She glares at him and vows determined. ''I'm going stop you Nya and beat you into a pulp!''
''… You can try.'' Sasuke simply replies giving her the chance to see if she can try. Besides, this is just another chance to finally put this girl under his feet and encourage the Dragon Knight to fight him that much more serious.
Ichigo quickly tries grabbing on her Mew Pendant Necklace but Sasuke just orders her noticing it. ''Go on, transform. I can wait.''
She blinks surprised by that. Normally most villains would attack her than let her transform. At the least the guy is confident enough to assume he can't lose and that he's going to regret. Grabbing on her pendant around her neck, Ichigo cries out as she kisses it. ''Mew Mew Strawberry, Metamorphosis!''
The pendant lights up brightly covering the cat girl in its warm light. Sasuke watches guarded as did the others as Ichigo transforms into her Mew form.
''For the Earth's future, I'll be of service Nya!'' Mew Ichigo proclaims serious striking her signature cat pose. Suigetsu and Karin drop their jaws not expecting that.
Sasuke scoffs and immediately takes a single step appearing right behind Mew Ichigo who notices this immediately. The two turn from their backs while the cat girl summons her Strawberry Bell and in an instant the two clash bell against katana. Mew Ichigo hisses pushing Sasuke back as she swings a kick only for Sasuke to block it with his forearm but he feels a snap from his arm bone. He then swings his other arm at her but the cat girl twirls and launches her other leg to block it. Then she leaps from the forearm of Sasuke's arm and leaps up to swing a downward kick that Sasuke dodges fast and her boot cracks the ground partly.
Sasuke, realizing her strength has indeed increased like Kabuto warned him before he killed Orochimaru, proceeds to slash her with his blade but the cat girl dodges around it, evading each of his precise slashes. Even with his Sharingan eyes, he finds it hard to cut down the unpredictable cat.
''Woah…'' Suigetsu mutters taken back how well the girl is actually handling their leader. Karin scoffs, actually jealous, while not worry as she states. ''This is nothing impressive! Sasuke just lost most of his Chakra and stamina from the previous fights. He's not going to lose to-''
As she was saying that, Sasuke manages to see where the cat girl will dodge and swings at her direction. He smirks going to land the slash but then Mew Ichigo catches the sword hand with her bare gloved hand. This surprised Sasuke as the cat girl slams a powerful punch across his face. The impact of the punch slams Sasuke back and crashes head first right through a rock.
''C-CRAP! SASUKE-KUN!'' Karin screams in horror not believing that. Mew Ichigo purrs giving a peace sign to her friends that she got him… until she panics with her cat ears acting up. She quickly leaps up just as the ground underneath her explodes. This shocks everyone as Sasuke emerges, having set explosive tags underneath the ground. Mew Ichigo blinks looking at the rock she assumed she sent him onto and it is revealed to be a log. She grunts landing on all fours thinking she got him.
''You're too cocky, Momomiya! FIRE RELEASE!'' Sasuke declares forming hand seals as he inhales back. Mew Ichigo panics and instantly forms her own hand seals. Sasuke startles greatly knowing those hand seals as they were the same he just did.
''GREAT FIREBALL TECHNIQUE!'' Mew Ichigo and Sasuke both shout exhaling and unleashing a massive fireball against the other, colliding. The flames of both attacks cancel each other out. Mew Ichigo pants a bit with Sasuke staring rather shock she actually used the Uchiha's signature Jutsu like that. It somewhat enrages him that he knows it.
''I'm surprise you know that one but since you're no Uchiha; that Jutsu won't work against me!'' Sasuke declares forming another hand seal and shouts. ''FIRE RELEASE: GREAT DRAGON FIRE TECHNIQUE!''
He spits out twin dragon-like fireballs at the cat girl. Mew Ichigo responds by forming her pink barrier with her Strawberry Bell, block the dragon-like fireball directly as it explodes into smoke. Sasuke watches with his Sharingan eyes glowing, readying himself for whatever she tries to-
''SECRET TECHNIQUE: CAT-AMUSER!'' Sasuke startles and evades fast to the left just missing the spinning Strawberry Bell thrown at him. He times it instantly and throws a kunai from his sleeve, knocking the bell to the ground before it could turn around like a boomerang. However Mew Ichigo leaps through the smoke from Sasuke's back and shouts extending her right hand back. ''SECRET TECHNIQUE: CAT CLAW-POUNCE!''
Sasuke hears it as the cat girl thrusts her hand forward in a claw-like pose. Mew Ichigo smirks going to deal major damage at the Uchiha until he shouts swinging his left arm at her. ''HIDDEN SHADOW SNAKE HANDS!''
In that moment several white snakes shoot out from under his sleeve, surprising the cat girl. The snakes wrap and constricting their bodies wrapped around Mew Ichigo's body.
''NYA!'' Mew Ichigo screams struggling to break free. Smirking at this, Sasuke starts swinging her around with his snakes, slamming the cat girl on multiple trees. She gasps out in pain feeling really dazed but also trying to adjust freeing her right arm somehow.
Sasuke then slams her onto a tree and then raises his right arm to the side as sparks fly around that hand.
''CHIDORI!'' He declares as the electricity erupts and spreads rapidly all over his hand, covering it in the light blue lightning. Mew Ichigo panics focusing in her tight space as pink sparks light up. Sasuke prepares to thrust his attack at the cat girl but then he sees something pink slashing through his snake, slashing it by Mew Ichigo.
Sasuke widens his eyes as Mew Ichigo shouts swinging her right, pink ribbon-like electrical hand at his attack. ''RIBBON CHIDORI!''
The two Chidoris clash and sparks of blue and pink lightning explode wildly though it pushes Sasuke back who was more stunned and unprepared by that.
''When did you!'' Sasuke tries demanding completely shock by the surprise that he never notice the Mew Mew now points her heart-shaped bell weapon once more in her possession right in front of him. Sasuke widens his eyes as Mew Ichigo shouts. ''RIBBON STRAWBERRY CHECK!''
The heart-shaped bell weapon unleashes a magical blast consuming and hitting Sasuke directly.
''GGAAHHH!'' The Uchiha shouts as the light consumes him more but he reacts fast triggering his Curse Mark. The magical blast explodes into sparkles of light.
''She got-'' Ed immediately determines the winner but sadly like before Sasuke quickly reappears, still standing, and now having his Curse Mark activated. Fullmetal sweat drops and mutters lowering his head. ''I'm stopping now.''
Sasuke pants slightly actually forced to activate his Curse Mark in the last second to escape that attack or else she would have won. Still he's still shock someone like her could even learn and use that Jutsu. He scoffs not believing Kakashi would even teach a non-Shinobi, no less a cat, that technique.
''Kakashi really is that desperate to teach a feline like you that Jutsu.'' Sasuke announces actually insulted by his former teacher's choice. This upsets Mew Ichigo, frowning, as she stares at her right hand. She remembers the day Kakashi decided to show her the Chidori. At first she didn't want to learn something that Sasuke learned and has been using to harm others until he told her the purpose of the Jutsu. It wasn't meant to harm or cut down the bonds of one's friends; it was meant to protect those bonds with your own power. After she realized that, she couldn't help herself but want to use it as well. It took her a long time to master it but along the way she got to understand how important that Jutsu is and how much value it is.
''… The Chidori was meant to protect those you love.'' Mew Ichigo, looking at Sasuke, tells him calm and strong. Sasuke glares at that word as he has no one to love anymore. Ichigo, however, has so many people she wants to see happy. She smiles telling him strongly and passionate. ''I have a lot of people I love. So many that they made me realize how valuable this power is to me.''
Sailor Moon watches blushing as she remembers that from one of their chats that Ichigo lost her powers once before and how she expressed that after finally being a normal girl, she hated being useless. She learned how important it is to have the power to protect the ones she loves.
Having accepted who she is now, Ichigo speaks up as the sweet young lady and heroine she is now. ''And through our love and our bonds; I will protect them all with this power Nya!''
Sasuke just stares silently and as much as he disagrees with her logic; she's not clueless of who she is unlike the first time they met… or more so better than Sakura.
''At the least you prove your worth more so than her.'' Sasuke mutters admitting she's not one he won't take lightly. His Curse Mark activates again spreading its markings across Sasuke's body while giving him a purple aura around his body too. Sasuke then declares with his Sharingan eyes glowing almost more sinister. ''I'll settle this now.''
Mew Ichigo glares dashing at him. Sasuke did the same as the two start clashing hits, blocking or intercepting the other's attacks. Mew Ichigo ducks a sword slash and then uses her tail, wrapping around his sword arm and tosses him away fast. Sasuke does manage to use a tree as a platform to swing himself back to the ground.
''RIBBON CHIDORI CHECK!'' Twirling towards the Uchiha's direction, Mew Ichigo shouts firing a Ribbon Strawberry Check with Ribbon Chidori coursing through the blast. Sasuke sees this not planning to get blasted by that as he summons a large Fuma Shuriken. He grabs it tightly with sparks of electricity flies all over it.
''LIGHTNING FLASH!'' Sasuke shouts launching the lightning-infused Fuma Shuriken at the energy blast, trying to stop it but Mew Ichigo knows that won't work. Sasuke, also aware, had a plan for that as he quickly pulls thin wires attached to the Fuma Shuriken, self-destruct it as the fan blades each had an Explosive Tags. The tags ignite and explode cancelling out Mew Ichigo's attack.
Sasuke then throws two Kunais with Explosive Tags at her but the cat girl forms her pink barrier again. The Kunais hit her barrier and they explode on contact though the barrier withhold without a scratch. Mew Ichigo smirks at Sasuke's attempt however she hears something and just then a white snake suddenly shoots out from underneath the ground within her barrier. The cat girl startles greatly as it quickly wraps itself around her and coils tightly on her body.
''NYAAA!'' Mew Ichigo screams in pain as the snake coils harder.
''Ichigo!'' Ed shouts in horror seeing her in such pain. The pain of the snake crushing her causes the Mew Mew to lose focus with her barrier vanishing. Sasuke sighs approaching her.
''Stay down, Momomiya.'' Sasuke shouts activating his Sharingan eyes towards the cat girl. Mew Ichigo sadly falls for them letting those same eyes place an illusion in her. She feels herself succumbing and falling in an endless dark hole. She was going to die and just the thought to lose, for the stake of her love ones, she can't; she can't!
''If I fall for this…'' Mew Ichigo tells herself mentally as the dark hole drags her deeper in the darkness and yet it won't break the cat girl.
Just the very image of Yugi, smiling, causes a strange rush of energy overflow Ichigo's very body while her pink eyes glow and her pupils become more cat-like.
Sasuke comes at her for a kick knockout but as he's about to the body of the cat girl lets out a strange light that it burns and incinerates the white snake wrapped around her. Mew Ichigo finally free also fully conscious lets out a yell as she sends a surprise upper kick across Sasuke's face. ''I REFUSE!''
This stuns Sasuke with the boot stomped across his face as he's kicked backwards. He falls backwards but rolls his body to get up immediately though bleeding from his mouth.
Everyone watches this speechless to see this warm pink aura around the cat girl and the warm pink color eyes she possesses.
''Ichigo…'' Alicia mutters very amazed. The look in her eyes was different than the more vicious ones she's had before. In fact these eyes are much warmer and bring a sense of hope.
Mew Ichigo stares at the stun Uchiha and declares vowing while pointing her finger at him. ''I won't let those eyes stop me from protecting everyone Nya!''
Sasuke grunts still stun from the kick. Mew Ichigo dashes at him while picking up her Strawberry Bell again. ''RIBBON CHIDORI!''
Her right hand once more is covered in the pink ribbon-like electricity. Sasuke glares going to stop her attack but before he could Suigetsu leaps behind him and shouts swinging his large sword at the Mew Mew. ''Back away kitty!''
Mew Ichigo startles and stops her attack as she dodges the sword by back flipping. Suigetsu smirks turning to Sasuke and tells him. ''Sasuke, we'll double-team her!''
Sasuke didn't say a word as Suigetsu proceeds coming at the cat girl. Mew Ichigo glares watching the guy swinging his sword again at her. However Suigetsu's sword is suddenly stopped by Alicia appearing right in front of him, once more in Valkyria form, blocking it with her shield.
''Ichigo doesn't need this right now!'' Alicia speaks up serious not going to let Ichigo's fight become one-handed. She eyes the cat girl and tells her with a small smile. ''I got this guy, you just beat Sasuke!''
Mew Ichigo blushes red thanking her. ''Thank you, Alicia-chan.''
Alicia smiles charging at Suigetsu, pushing him back with her shield to give her friend the space she needs.
Thankful for her, Mew Ichigo stares back at Sasuke touching her Mew Pendant and starts chanting. ''Mew Mew Strawberry…''
Her pendant glows wildly as she adds shouting louder with the light growing larger. ''EVOLUTION!''
The light of her pendant engulfs her, changing her as Mew Ichigo quickly emerges in her second Mew form. This shocks Sasuke even though he was told of this new power too.
''Let's finish this Sasuke!'' Mew Ichigo declares confident, not going to lose. Sasuke scoffs pulling down his white open shirt as he responds. ''Fine by me. Your love…''
His Curse Mark once more glows and rapidly changes his body into the seal's second form. Spreading his claw webbed wings, Sasuke declares glaring at the Mew Mew. ''Won't overcome my vengeance!''
Sasuke dashes at her in mid-air swinging his blade fast only for Mew Ichigo to catch the blade by its blade. This horrifies the Uchiha as he suddenly gets punch not once but a kick as well by the cat girl, launching him upward. He gasps using his wings to hover in the air to only see the Mew Mew just now above him in the air, extending back her right foot up over her head.
''SECRET TECHNIQUE: CAT DROP KICK!'' Mew Ichigo shouts swinging downward with the same leg right towards Sasuke's head. However the Uchiha quickly responds shouting. "CHIDORI CURRENT!''
Burst of electricity flies all over his body, making sure it will shock the cat girl if she attempts to strike him physically.
Mew Ichigo sees that and risks her chances by shouting. ''RIBBON THUNDER ARMOR!''
In that instant the cat girl's body is surrounded in an electrical pink aura as her hands and feet are coated in pink colored electrical ribbons that take shape of cat paws and sharp claws. Even her cat tail is surrounded in the electrical ribbons giving it armor with a sharp pointy tip. Sasuke startles as her kick slashes through his Chidori Current and the boot kicks him downward by the head so fast that Sasuke almost passes out as he crashes to the ground in a mere second.
Mew Ichigo giggles disappearing while Sasuke struggles to pull himself up still daze. However he could see it as he turns and intercepts a claw swipe by the sudden appearing cat girl now in front of him. Mew Ichigo forms a small smirk not surprise his Sharingan eyes could keep up with her much-much faster speed.
''I got to finish this before this form harms me too much Nya.'' Mew Ichigo tells herself mentally while she and Sasuke attack and evade their attacks, neither one able to land a hit on the other. The cat girl pounces at high speed but Sasuke leaps over her flying upward. Seeing this Mew Ichigo raises her right arm at him.
''RIBBON CHIDORI SHARP SPEAR!'' The Mew Mew shouts firing a burst of Ribbon Chidori extending and shooting upward. Sasuke sees it coming and dashes at it with his blade.
''CHIDORI KATANA!'' Sasuke shouts slashing the ribbon-like electrical spear with his enhanced lightning katana. He still proceeds to dash down at her and slashes her only for the cat girl to parry his enhance lightning katana with her lightning claws. Both release sparks of blue and pink lightning as they strike each other's attacks. This forces both of them back with smoke coming out from the other slightly.
Panting as he's near his limit, Sasuke lets out a shout extending back his right hand as it is engulfed in electricity but black. ''It's over!''
Mew Ichigo glares holding forward her Strawberry Bell changing into its Strawberry Rose Bell form. She declares holding her bell weapon with both hands. ''For you Nya!''
The two hold their pose, readying themselves. Sasuke makes the first move charging forward as he shouts extending his electric arm forward. ''BLACK CHIDORI!''
''RIBBON STRAWBERRY SURPRISE!'' Mew Ichigo shouts back countering his attack with her upgraded Ribbon Strawberry Check. Sasuke didn't care thrusting his arm regardless right upon the magical energy blast. This startles Mew Ichigo briefly as she resumes pouring more of her attack to push the Uchiha back. Sasuke, however, shouts engulfing more of his Curse Mark to increase his power, actually pushing back the light of Mew Ichigo's attack with his darker Chidori attack. The cat girl struggles trying to push back but Sasuke's attack is making it very hard on her.
''N-not enough… Not going to-'' Mew Ichigo begins telling herself about to lose even after going all out. Just as she's about to overpowered and likely beaten, a voice suddenly speaks up through her very heart. ''Believe in your heart.''
Mew Ichigo widens her eyes not familiar with that voice and yet it sounds so familiar yet kind, kinder than the other one. Smiling, she trusts it extending her right hand to her side and calls forth. ''Mew Aqua Hope Rod!''
The rod glows and releases a magical barrier that actually repels Sasuke somewhat to his surprise. He struggles to thrust through this but this is all the time Mew Ichigo needed pointing her rod at him while it glows brightly.
''RIBBON AQUA DROP EXPLOSIONS!'' Mew Ichigo shouts as her rod unleashes a burst of magical bubble-like blast over her Ribbon Strawberry Surprise. The two attacks oddly combine and clash upon the Black Chidori, actually pushing it back immediately. Sasuke screams in pain as the blast consumes him and explodes in bright light. The light vanishes as Sasuke drops hard, reverted back in human form, and badly damaged. Mew Ichigo pants heavily not thinking that would work.
Karin gasps speechless with Suigetsu panicking. Alicia smiles while Sailor Moon gasps joyfully.
''D-did she finally do it?'' Ed asks not wanting to jinx it. Judai oddly smiles pretty sure she won it.
Mew Ichigo still pants as her Ribbon Thunder Armor mode and Mew Aqua Hope Rod vanishes. She sighs of relief muttering out actually feeling her sweat. ''I… I need to shower after this Nya.''
Ed and Kurosaki both sweat drop rather annoyed that's all she's thinking about after winning a hard fight.
''ICHIGO-CHAN DID IT! SHE-'' Sailor Moon starts cheering along with Chibiusa but before she could finish her words, Sasuke's body starts twitching and melts to their horror. Mew Ichigo watches as the body oddly melts but not before something stabs inside of it.
''WWWHHAAAA!'' Sailor Moon and Chibiusa both screamed in horror while the others were very much shock.
They watch as Sasuke emerges from what was his body which has shredded into dust. The Uchiha emerges with all his injuries from before the fights completely healed even his clothes were restored before said point. This shocks everyone with Mew Ichigo trying to utter really taken back and also disgusted by that.
''W-what did you-'' Mew Ichigo tries asking though she blushes still seeing the Uchiha partly nude. Sasuke ignores her reactions pulling up his shirt again.
''That was Orochimaru's own version of the Body Replacement Technique.'' Sasuke explains using the Jutsu to materialize a new body however the price of such a Jutsu is starting to take effect as he feels his Chakra almost completely drained, panting as he realizes it.
Sasuke couldn't believe he's this close to lose now. Unlucky his previous foes, not even his Sharingan or using his Ninja methods will work on a girl like her. To be honest, Sasuke never fought anyone this annoying yet capable of keeping up with him. He forms a small smile, expressing his thoughts of her. ''You're strong, Momomiya.''
Mew Ichigo makes a stun, blushing face never expecting to get a complement from this guy.
''But this isn't over yet.'' Sasuke then declares not going to accept this as a lost or a tie.
Mew Ichigo gulps taking her battle pose with both her Strawberry Rose Bell and Mew Aqua Hope Rod at both hands. She feels tired, very, but she can't let that stop her. She will beat Sasuke for good.
Sasuke sees this and actually chuckles as he gasps a bit on his tired state.
''I'm really out of energy.'' He tells himself knowing well he can't afford to lose. Raising his Katana and pointing it towards the cat girl, Sasuke tells himself trying to envision he's fighting Itachi giving himself a reason to not lose. ''I have to settle this now. I refuse to walk away after everything!''
The two lock at the other's eyes, about to finish their fight but before they could a voice shouts out. ''Ichigo-kun, everyone!''
Mew Ichigo startles and turns to see Yugi rushing over towards her with Kaiba, Mokuba and Naruto behind him. Smiling of joy, she yells out so happy to see him here.''Yugi-kun Nya!''
Yugi smiles also of relief to have made it though they would have arrived sooner if not for Kaiba to find a parking spot for his hover car. They join behind the cat girl with Yugi staring firmly towards Sasuke.
With a bump on his head from the ride here, Naruto shouts serious at his friend moving forward. ''That's enough, Sasuke!''
Kurosaki eyes the blond spiky head surprise he wasn't called to stop Sasuke since those two know each other well. Ed, however frowns realizing why that idiot didn't show up; Judai never called him to protect him from the fact his friend is doing this. He mutters feeling sad for the spiky blond headed. ''Naruto…''
Judai stays quiet wanting to avoid this reunion since it will be much harder on his friend.
''…'' Sasuke narrowly turns his head to eye the spiky blond headed gazing at him mad. He just scoffs rather surprised he came late than the first one to confront.
Suigetsu, trying to fight Alicia, overhears that name and mutters to him questionable. ''Naruto? When have I heard that name before?''
Alicia, seeing her opponent dropping her guard, immediately fires a Blue Flame from her lance. Suigetsu sees it too late barely dodging it but still takes most of the attack dead on.
''WA!'' Suigetsu screams sent flying back next to Karin, burned badly. Alicia giggles commenting her opponent. ''That's what you get for dropping your guard.''
Yugi sweat drops seeing that with Naruto, not paying attention, demands Sasuke seriously. ''Why are you going after Chibiusa-chan?! Aren't you with-''
Sasuke, more busy glaring at the Dragon Knight, does acknowledge the spiky blond headed by responding harshly. ''I think I've told this already but I'll gladly tell you too, idiot.''
Naruto snaps going to give him a piece of his mind but Yugi grabs him by the shoulder wanting to hear this. Naruto grunts but nods eyeing Sasuke.
''As I said it already, I killed Orochimaru and my only concern is going after Itachi.'' Sasuke announces for the third time shocking Naruto and even Yugi. Kaiba remains silent not recalling either one of those stupid names.
''You killed Orochimaru-kun?'' Yugi asks rather surprise and yet not sure how to feel. He's not saying that he's wrong but he could feel the aura of the Sannin within Sasuke. The Uchiha glares questioning him. ''You don't believe me?''
Yugi shakes his head telling him honestly and firm. ''I do, sort of. It's just the question of how you killed him.''
Sasuke eyes him and actually cracks a smirk. He's impressed he can see the fact that Orochimaru still exist within him since he used the reverse of Orochimaru's Jutsu against him instead of himself.
''Nothing escapes your senses, Dragon Knight.'' Sasuke actually praises Yugi which stuns Naruto with an open jaw. Yugi stares at him calmly. The Uchiha stares back with his Sharingan eyes, able to see he's different than when he was back then. In fact he can see through him and his purple eyes hiding the red, dragon eyes and the silhouettes of Yin-Yang Dragon wrapped around his body as if protecting him.
''I supposed that's why Orochimaru and even the Dark Lord fear you.'' Sasuke comments realizing the growth in the boy but also he can see something is wrong with him too. He adds said fact in a somewhat mockery voice. ''The same can't be said with you being this so-called fear to them.''
Yugi glares by his words not sure what he's referring about.
Kaiba, watching already angry, steps forward as he speaks up glaring at Sasuke unimpressed. ''So this is the friend of Idiot #5.''
Naruto blinks awkwardly before snapping while shouting. ''WAIT 5?!''
Sasuke, even exhausted, glares at this man and demands annoyed. ''And who are you?''
Kaiba, still staring at him, responds coldly as he activates his Duel Disk and slides on his headset. ''A very annoyed CEO.''
Yugi startles about to protest but Kaiba just turns and gives him a glare, almost telling him to step aside or else. Sighing, the tricolor head rubs the back of his head letting him do what he wants. Scoffing, Kaiba walks up and tells the Mew Mew moving her aside. ''Step aside feline, I'll get rid of him.''
''Nya?! I didn't ask for you-'' Mew Ichigo starts protesting but Sasuke intercepts her rather cocky. ''Fine, I'll deal with you first and then finish things with Momomiya so then I can fight and beat the Dragon Knight.''
The cat girl gives him a glare as Yugi blinks. Kaiba, however, couldn't help but snarl and quickly changes that into a laugh. ''Hahahahaha!''
Sasuke, rather surprised by his reaction, glares at him and demands coldly. ''What's so funny?''
Stopping his laughter immediately with a frown Kaiba answers with his cold blue eyes gazing at the Uchiha and his pathetic declaration. ''Your joke. You, defeat Yugi? NEVER! Not while I still breathe, I will be the one and only to defeat Yugi Mutou and become Duel King!''
Yugi sweat drops happy he does care for him… somewhat, for their rivalry. Mew Ichigo sweat drops not at all surprise. Sasuke actually raises an eyebrow muttering with a questionable voice. ''Duel King?''
Drawing his holographic card, Kaiba declares raising it up as it vanishes into light. ''Appear my pride, my soul! Blue-Eyes White Dragon!''
A sphere of light forms over Kaiba and reveals his prideful white dragon emerging with a powerful roar. Sasuke startles actually feeling that one.
''A Summoning Technique?!'' Karin questions with both she and Suigetsu actually worry never seeing a creature like that before. Even Sasuke is somewhat taken back by this dragon.
''Feast my dragon.'' Kaiba commands raising his hand and obeying, Blue-Eyes lets out a roar flying towards the Uchiha. Sasuke quickly leaps over the dragon only for the white dragon to whip its tail over it and strikes Sasuke, sending him crashing into multiple trees in a row.
''Sasuke!'' Karin screams as even Suigetsu has to admit that was painful. Sasuke gets up somewhat wobbly.
Blue-Eyes White Dragon charges with a body bash towards Sasuke. Gritting, he pulls out two Fuma Shurikens and throws them around the dragon which both were attached with thin wires. Sasuke plans to dodge and burn the dragon but to his horror the dragon rams itself through the wire and snaps them off like nothing. This shocks him as he dodges the dragon's body bash but barely as one of its wings strikes his back and he gasps slamming him into the ground hard, actually flipping him off the ground to fall on it again.
Kaiba laughs at this and raises his hand as his dragon turns and comes at Sasuke with its mouth and claws. Sasuke, getting up badly rough up, raises his Katana and shouts with electricity pouring through it. ''CHIDORI SHARP SPEAR!''
Kaiba sees that coming and commands seriously at his dragon. ''Burst Stream of Destruction!''
His dragon opens its mouth and fires a destructive blast of white electricity. Sasuke panics as his extended electrical spear is blasted through and he's forced to dodge the attack just barely again with burn marks slightly on him.
Kaiba, scoffing with his arms crossed, speaks somewhat impressed. ''Not bad handling one of my mighty dragons.''
''One?!'' Sasuke utters out still recovering the last attack. Kaiba smirks as suddenly two more Blue-Eyes White Dragons appear with the third one. Sasuke actually startles. Normally, this wouldn't bother him but since he's about to run out of Chakra, he can't keep this up.
As it seems the Uchiha was out of options, he feels drips of water on his face. He looks up as the sky, already dark, starts pouring down rain. Forming a small smirk, Sasuke raises his right hand straight towards the sky. Kaiba raises an eyebrow, still sinister yet puzzled what he's trying.
Sasuke's hand forms sparks of electricity as it shoots upward to the sky. The electricity hits the clouds as thunder strikes begins forming.
''I'll finish this now!'' Sasuke declares as the thunderclouds begin charging electricity all around themselves. Yugi stares up and can feel this is some kind of attack, warning Kaiba. ''Kaiba-kun!''
Kaiba still glares at Sasuke as he pulls two cards from his deck and activates them. However he never got the chance to announce them as Sasuke declares while the thunderclouds let out a roar-like sound. ''KIRIN!''
In that instant the thunderclouds warp around themselves and within the vortex emerges out a massive, chimerical-like dragon-like lightning creature with red eyes glowing viciously and furious. Everyone drops their mouths at the sight of the thing.
''Holy-'' Ed tries muttering really taken back but gets intercept by Naruto who shouts pleading with his friend to stop this. ''Stop it Sasuke!''
Yugi knows better grabbing Ichigo and Mokuba and pulls them away fast from Kaiba.
''Vanish with the thunderclap.'' Ignoring his pleads, Sasuke declares at Kaiba as flinches his hand a bit more up. The Kirin roars going up back in the vortex of thunderclouds. Once in there, Sasuke immediately swings downward with his hand right upon Kaiba and Blue-Eyes. Less than a second the Kirin emerges shooting and striking down instantly upon Kaiba and his three dragons. The Jutsu strikes down and explodes instantly in an almost massive blast but slightly. Everyone else braces themselves with Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask protecting Chibiusa.
The area is covered in smoke as Sasuke pants softly not expecting it would have taken more than he thought.
''…'' Sasuke watches silently waiting for kind of movement. If none, which is very likely, he wins and can finish things with-
Suddenly he sees a light form through the smoke of the aftermath of Kirin, growing bigger and larger.
''W-what?'' The young Uchiha utters actually frightened.
''My Blue-Eyes…'' A voice then speaks through the smoke as the light pierces through it, now revealing the three Blue-Eyes White Dragons, merged as the unstoppable Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon.
''Is the Ultimate Creature of Destruction!'' Kaiba, stepping out unscratched, announces loudly and proud that even his three-headed dragon roars viciously.
Sasuke widens his eyes horrified as Kaiba, laughing menacing, declares. ''You never had a chance against the Toughest! The Invincible! THE UNBEATABLE!''
Yugi sweat drops as that's more ironic since Kaiba used that very trap, The Ultimate Creature of Destruction, to prevent his fused Blue-Eyes from getting destroyed.
Sasuke, panting heavily, does not believe his best attack failed but this was also his fault using Kirin the way he did.
''Kirin wasn't at full power and yet with just a mere fraction of its power wasn't enough to beat him. Damn it.'' He tells himself knowing fully well the power of Kirin can be much greater if he was somewhat at full power or had surrounded the area in flames to best control the weather to become a stronger thunderstorm. Besides, this Jutsu is meant to kill only one; Itachi. Still, things weren't in his favor.
Kaiba, his arms crossed, didn't move as his Ultimate Dragon opens up its three mouths, charging up its attack. Sasuke glares not going to accept this defeat… but then he stares at Chibiusa who is looking back at him. He realizes that this girl was like him and the fact that she lost her parents question what he's doing now. Much like how he refused to follow Itachi's example and kill his best friend; he won't bring greater despair to her like he went through.
Making up his mind, Sasuke eyes his team with Jugo regaining his conscious rather taken back and declares. ''Retreat.''
This shocks the rest of Team Hebi but under the conditions they were in, they have no choice. Yugi and the others were also confuse as Sasuke faces them and proclaims raising his right hand to them. ''We'll meet again.''
''I won't let you leave!'' Kaiba protests not letting him go as he commands his dragon. ''Finish him, Ultimate Bur-''
Before he could finish his command, Sasuke drops a bomb in his other hand in front of the others and it explodes, unleashing a bright blinding light.
''What?!'' Seto yells out caught in the light as were everyone else. They couldn't see a thing but Yugi could sense Sasuke and his team now gone. The light soon diminishes and once everyone regains their sight, they notice Sasuke and his team all gone.
''They're gone Nya.'' Mew Ichigo mutters somewhat relief as she drops on her knees, really exhausted. Yugi nods holding her right shoulder. He eyes Chibiusa noticing how Sasuke was looking at her, wondering if he left due to her.
''Sasuke…'' Naruto mutters with a sadden look, not able to bring him back again. Though he isn't sure why but he's positive Sasuke ran away not because of Kaiba, but maybe something.
Kaiba sighs more than angry as he deactivates his Duel Disk and his three-headed dragon vanishes. He turns to face Yugi and demands him. ''Now where's that girl?!''
Yugi just smiles pointing his finger behind him. Kaiba turns and spots Chibiusa hugging the injury Tuxedo Mask who smiles hugging her back. Sailor Moon blushes rather jealous but sighs patting her head. Chibiusa sobs eyeing her and then hugs her back startling the Sailor Guardian with a small smile.
Everyone else smiles seeing that. Kaiba, however, demands rather confuse but annoyed. ''Who the hell is she?''
''My cousin Nya!'' Mew Ichigo answers him happily. Kaiba just makes a face, not sure what to feel… but it was indeed anger and frustration. He turns around and declares walking away. ''We'll talk tomorrow.''
This startles everyone with Mew Ichigo trying to yell at him in protest. ''NYA! BUT YOU SAID-''
''I don't need this today.'' Kaiba just mutters not in the mood of this. He walks away with Mokuba, sweat dropping, bows apologetic as he catches up to his older brother. Mew Ichigo puffs her cheeks angrily and mutters angrily. ''I really hate him more Nya.''
Yugi sweat drops petting her ears, also pretty taken back by Kaiba's choice. Maybe it was the mini-skirt? Or the outfit? Or the cousin part? He just sighs somewhat relief this is over, at least for now. He does, however, frown knowing well the Dark Lord will show up soon and when he does, they have to be ready.
Sasuke pants as he and his team were in hiding. He continues breathing heavily, placing a hand over his face at how weakened he felt right now. He coughs eyeing the red head and tells her, needing her ability. ''Karin…''
Karin, blushing, understands pulling up her neck and shows bite marks on it.
''Here!'' She nervously says showing her bare neck to him. Sasuke eyes it and bites into it. Karin immediately lets out a loud painful but enjoyable moan since it was Sasuke doing it. As he bit her, Sasuke's wounds begin to heal due to Karin's special ability. Once his injuries were recovered, Sasuke pulls away and thanks her. ''Thank you.''
Karin blushes red but more so since it was Sasuke who bit her neck like that. Suigetsu sweat drops at that and asks his leader rather unenergetic. ''Oi, we could have taken them on, right?''
Sasuke composes himself thinking much clearer and knows if he had beaten that man and his dragons, somehow, he would likely lose to Yugi. Even if he wasn't in the sense to fight, it's likely he would have taken him down. Now if he was at full power, probably. But what Sasuke learned from Orochimaru, before he decided to kill him, that Yugi was much stronger.
''The Dragon Knight would be too much for any of us if we battled him under our condition.'' Sasuke theorizes their odds as not great. However, even against those odds, Sasuke grew rather done with capturing that girl. Now aware of the story, the young Uchiha has no more interest on someone… who reminds him of himself somewhat.
''That and I have no interest to capture her now.'' Sasuke decides surprising the rest of the team other than Jugo, figuring that would be his decision.
Losing one's parents, losing their purpose, that empty darkness; Sasuke knows those feels too well. That only asks him more questions like why did she lost her parents, who's behind this and why? Clearly it is not the Dark Lord but someone else that the evil dragon hates. Maybe he can use that in his own advantage and still get what he wants through another way.
He makes up his mind declaring. ''Once I'm healed, I have to do something. You three stay within the hideout until I return.''
Karin startles by this but sighs not going to object. Jugo had no intention as he knew what he was going to do. Suigetsu sighs and just replies rather relief to not be fighting those guys especially that fire lance girl or the cat one. ''Whatever you say, boss.''
Having watched the battle that happened just moments ago, the masked man shakes his head somewhat disappointed how the conclusion ended. Even if the young man continued, he was already far exhausted after his last attack impressive as it was.
"Quite a shame that battle didn't ended in the young man's victory. Pity.'' He mutters unfolding his crossed arms. Then again this just means it was now truly his time to shine and fix the mistake of those who failed before him.
''However now it has been confirmed to me that I must be the one to deal with these immature, misguided children playing ''heroes''.'' He declares turning his back with his cape flapping, heading towards the building of the Dark Lord to finally meet the devil and reveal his new ally.
Who is this man and what does he intend to do with helping the Dark Lord?
To be continued…
(ENDING 2: Heart Moving by Naoko Takeuchi from Sailor Moon)
Thank you for another great episode. I thank those who are helping me get this story notice and enjoy it. For those who love it, please review my story and give me your opinions or thoughts to it.
Next Time…
The Dark Lord decides to take charge of this matter to capture Chibiusa himself but then the same masked man has appeared and reveals who he is and what his intentions are. What exactly are they and why does he wish to help the Dark Lord?
Naruto sighs defeated: Damn, Sasuke got away.
Kurosaki gives him a look: Yea, I'm sure you worry more for him than us getting beaten badly.
Ed transmutes Al's armored body, fixing it: In my defense… I got none.
Alicia sighs exhausted: Me neither.
Chibiusa blushes: … He wasn't so bad.
Mew Ichigo sweat drops heavily: …
Sailor Moon sweat drops: Um Yugi-chan, title for next time?
Yugi sweat drops: Y-yea. Next time in Yu-Gi-Oh! Dragon Knight Reborn: The New Threat! Appear Arkham!
Mew Ichigo: Please remember to read, enjoy and review Nya. See you all next time… and Sasuke-Baka is worse than Kaiba-Baka.
Kaiba scoffs: I'll take that as a complement, Momomiya.
Author's Note: SO… for those who did figure out why I think Mew Ichigo VS Sasuke is more interesting, congrats. For those not getting it… well it involves the Chidori. Like how Kakashi view his Jutsu (more so after Obito's ''death'' and later Rin's), it was meant to protect one's bonds and love ones. Sasuke, however, chose to use it for revenge (which becomes ironic since that revenge is revenge for his dead brother, so it's like love) but Ichigo mastered it to protect the love for everyone she cares for. I've been planning this since Volume 1 everyone, you shouldn't be surprised.
I'm not saying Kaiba can beat Sasuke… he would try and might if it was a weak version of the Uchiha… but yea, Sasuke was exhausted and Kaiba would crush anyone he views as an enemy that would go after Yugi… not because he cares for him, much, but he is his rival, his prey, his goal.
Also I should clear this up; I had plans to have the rest of the Sailor Guardians to show up to fight Sasuke but that would have made the chapter LONGER and I don't like making long chapters (since I'm sure almost the majority of my readers hate reading long chapters like how I screw up in Volume 1 of DKR). So I didn't and I'll have my reason why they didn't show up in the next chapter.
Speaking up for the next chapter… like I promise one of my favorite and well one of my 4 only reviewers, it's time. So enjoy his part of this arc.
