ProNationHD: Hey yo, ProNation here, this time I'll be taking over Author's note xD from here on out... No, just kidding. Jerry is busy keeping Vegeta from blowing up half the universe, so I'm filling in for him.

Today, I'm going to let Bru-Sensei say the disclaimer.

Bru-Sensei: Hey all! I'm glad to be here to help Jerry and ProNation with Team-Z! I offered my help to them with structural elements when I am not writing for my story. So…Here I am! XD. For those that know of me and my story, I am working on Ch. 8, and helping with Team-Z does not mean I have put the Z-Ninja is on hold.

Since this story served as inspiration for mine, it is an honor to help them present the story in the best way possible. So without any further delay,

DISCLAIMER: Murderdeath21, ProNationHD, nor I, Bru-Sensei, own any part of the original concepts for either Naruto or Dragon Ball Z! If we did, we would probably know each other in person, and probably be fighting to the death over the boatloads of money. We also wouldn't have to say a freaking disclaimer either, but such is life!

Anyway, we now rejoin the fight with Gohan and Kuririn vs. Grape on the bridge.

Please enjoy Jerry's story and review our effort so that we may continue to improve our ourselves in providing you all with a great FanFiction for you to enjoy!

I really hope Jerry does not get hurt by Vegeta and his search for Goku. If only Vegeta knew where he was like I do…Oh well…

Please Review, Favorite, Follow and Enjoy!

Chapter 87: Controlled!

(Gohan and Kuririn vs Grape- The Great Naruto Bridge)

Kuririn stared back at Gohan quizzically and questioned, "Possessed? What do you mean you're being possessed?"

The young half-Saiyan was still shaking uncontrollably as he shook his head in response. "I-I don't know. I-I can't move my arm at all." His arms began to shake more violently as he struggled to regain control of his limbs.

Kuririn got up on his feet, and wiped the blood off of his mouth. "Is it just your arm, Gohan? Can't you move on your own at all!?"

"No!" Gohan cried back in panic, "I've been trying but I just can't seem to break free!"

The sound of laughter echoed around them as they turned to face Grape, frowning at the bug-eyed henchman as he laughed and ridiculed the duo. "You worthless runts…! How does it feel to be betrayed by your own friend?"

Kuririn snarled at the remark, furious at Coola's minion for using his best friend's son against him. Gohan did not respond, as he was scared-stiff in light of the troubling situation he now found himself in.

"Gohan is no longer your friend, Baldy…!" continued the bug-eyed alien, "The brat is now my new friend! I'm surprised that you can't tell how or when I took control of him." Grape held up his head in apparent satisfaction as their confusion grew.

Kuririn frowned and said, "Figured what out? I have no clue!"

Grape snorted, "Ha! You really are a worthless little runt! I managed to implant some of my Ki into his body by tapping on the kid's forehead when I evaded his attack."

Gohan widened his eyes as he slowly replayed the moment in his mind. 'That blur, it was him!'

(Flashback begins)

"Giving up? Me?! I'm son of Son Goku, and I will never give up!" Gohan scowled. "Father and Naruto-san taught me that! There's no way that I'm going to give up!' He flew towards the alien as multiple spiders moved to protect the bug-eyed henchman. He did not care how much damage he took as long as he finally put Grape in his place.

Kuririn and Bulma cried out in unison as the boy continued his assault, yelling, "Gohan/-kun!"

"Wait! The bombs!" cried Kuririn. The bald midget skyrocketed towards Gohan in an attempt to stop him, but the boy did not listen as he continued flying through the bugs, ignoring the now glowing insects as they continued to block his advance, when suddenly…

Kaboom! Kaboom! Kaboom! Kaboom!

Gohan was being bombarded by the explosive insects now, but kept going as he refused to back down no matter what. Even if the bombs wounded him, the boy was too stubborn to give up, and still skyrocketed towards Grape.

Grape widened his eyes in shock before crying out, "What?!"

Gohan finally managed to get past all the bugs, much to Grape's chagrin. He pulled his fist back, and threw a punch.

But Grape jumped just in time to dodge the moment before the half-Saiyan could touch him, and in a quick blur, the henchman shot his hand up and tapped Gohan's forehead before jumping over the boy's head. After recovering his posture from a somersault, Grape glanced over his shoulder at Gohan with a wicked smirk.

(Flashback end)

Gohan widened his eyes in realization as he spoke, "You tapped my forehead, and somehow leaked your Ki into mine?"

Grape displayed his devious grin, full of sharp teeth as he clued them as to how he managed the feat, "Correct, my friend. By leaking some of my Ki, even a little, into one's Ki network system, I can control that person as I see fit, regardless how strong and determined they are…" The alien paused to see the boy's reaction of desperation before continuing, "Once my Ki enters someone's network system, my power becomes theirs. You see, all of your current KI is now being overridden with my Ki, allowing me to control you from anywhere within my specific range. The only thing that limits how I use you is my own imagination."

"You've got to be kidding me…" stated Gohan as he began to tremble.

Grape folded his arms and chuckled menacingly. "Do I look like I'm joking around here? This technique barely costs me any Ki to perform; however, there are some certain side-effects…"

The alien paused a moment, contemplating whether he should reveal his secret or not, but his own overconfidence won out as he continued, "In order to perform this technique, I'm no longer invulnerable to anything. By anything, I mean even a cheap shot can harm me. Something like a mere sword without any super-strength, for example, would do some serious damage to me now that I have used this technique. I can't even use my pets to protect me in this state, but that's not a problem…AS YOU WILL DO THE FIGHTING FOR ME, MY PUPPET!"

Gohan was baffled at the statement Grape had made. The boy had no clue how he was being controlled by the bug-eyed creep at the moment as his muscles moved involuntary. Thoughts were filling his head, showing him killing his friend and urging him to make it a reality. Fear and dread filled the boy as he couldn't bear the thought of Kuririn dying by his own hand.

Suddenly, Gohan zoomed towards Kuririn at tremendous speed. The boy could not stop himself or even predict how his body would attack the bald midget, he could only warn his friend when they were coming.

"Kuririn-san!" warned Gohan as he sped towards his friend, "Get away! I don't know what he's going to make me do next!"

Kuririn was forced to react on the fly up as Gohan swung his fist around, jumping to avoid hit. The half-Saiyan continued the relentless pursuit though and was about to attempt a punch on the midget again, but Kuririn ducked his head, avoiding it. Wasting no time, Gohan slammed his knees hard against Kuririn's guts ferociously, doubling him over in pain.

Kuririn could taste the iron in his blood as it oozed from his mouth. He couldn't help but think about how Gohan's strength was amazing, having truly improved as the midget had already said earlier. The ferocious kick he received was greater than any other opponents he'd faced. He had seen Gohan giving ferocious attacks to ReaCoom, Ginyu, Freeza, and even Vegeta! Gohan's strength had always amazed the bald midget.

Grape, refusing to allow Kuririn to escape, proceeded to manipulate Gohan's next move to stop the bald midget.

Despite Gohan's anxiety, he had no will to control himself anymore. He kept jabbing at Kuririn from left to right and back and forth, and followed that by a mighty uppercut. Kuririn's body was sent canon blasted higher before Gohan appeared above Kuririn and decked clean into his guts again. Afterward, he gripped Kuririn's bald head, and slammed against his head harder, drawing blood from the forehead.

Fortunately, before Gohan could do anything, Kuririn regained his senses, and evaded some of Gohan's attacks while making sure that he did not fight back at all, which only worried Gohan more. He would parry, dodge, and evade all of Gohan's attacks rather than injure the boy.

"W-Why…" Gohan finally spoke up, visually upset as it also showed in his voice. "W-Why…" He continued attacking Kuririn, still able to talk even while fighting.

Grape created many imaginations for Gohan's few next moves. He smirked and thought, 'That bald midget refuses to attack my friend. Interesting…Let's press him further, and see if he's willing to fight back.'

"Why aren't you fighting back?!" cried Gohan as he threw another punch, only for Kuririn to dodge it once more.

Kuririn did not even bother to respond because he had made up his mind to focus on dodging Gohan's attacks. He wasn't going to let the boy tell him otherwise. Kuririn began to frown in thought, 'Sorry, Gohan. I can't fight back,'

Kuririn raised his arm to block one of Gohan's hardest punches, making his arm tremble due to the stronger power behind the punch. Since the midget was distracted at the moment, Gohan dashed behind him, delivering an elbow smash to his back. Kuririn screamed in the pain as the blow connected.

Gohan couldn't take it anymore as he cried, "Kuririn-san! Fight back, please!" Suddenly, he raised his hands, and clasped them together. "Please…"

Gohan could only hear him mutter, "Sorry…Goh-ACK!"

Kuririn was cut off as Gohan knocked the midget back down to the bridge with a double-ax handle, breaking it in half as he broke through to finally slam into the river water, creating an enormous splash of water. As the eruption of water slowly came back down into the river, as Gohan was struggling to keep his emotions in check as he searched the water with eyes, looking for his friend.

"Haha! You won't fight back no matter what, huh?" Grape laughed. "After all the trouble to get my new friend, I had to use him just to beat up that useless, pathetic baldy! He wasn't even a real challenge, was he…?"

As the river started to calm, Kuririn did not come out of the water, worrying Gohan. "Kuririn-san…"

Instead of looking up at Gohan, Inari stared at Grape from behind as he muttered softly, "How do they beat Grape if he's controlling that kid?"

Bulma knew Inari was asking her as she turned to him and frowned, "I don't know, kid. I don't even know if they can beat them. I'm sure if Kuririn go for that bug-eyed freak, he will force Gohan to defend him for sure. There's nothing we can do. I really wish we could kill him with that sword over there…!" said the blue-haired woman as she pointed over to sword lying on the ground behind them, most likely dropped by one of Coola's men.

Inari nodded, "Yeah…" Suddenly, a realization hit him! 'W-Wait! Kill him with that sword over there?' He looked over his shoulder at the sword laying on the ground behind them. 'That's it!' He remembered what Grape described his technique.

Flashback Begins)

Grape folded his arms and chuckled, "Do I look like I'm joking around here? This technique barely costs me any Ki to perform; however, there are some certain side-effects… In order to perform this technique, I'm no longer invulnerable to anything. By anything, I mean even a cheap shot can harm me. Something like a mere sword without any super-strength can do some serious damage to me now that I've used this technique…"

(Flashback Ends)

'The sword! He's vulnerable to anything…!' Inari realized as he smirked, finally able to figure out the key to defeating Grape. Turning around slowly, he began silently stepping forward on his way to the sword.

"H-Hey… What're you doing?" asked Bulma, who noticed the pre-teen's slow, but deliberate, movements. Inari looked around at her, and shushed her. "Huh…?" questioned the confused woman. Inari pointed to the sword as she finally figured out what he was going to do. "Oh…Okay, so you're going to try it..." she whispered this time as Inari nodded and continued on his way to get the sword.

Gohan kept searching the river for signs of his friend with a shocked expression on his face, but Kuririn never surfaced. "Kuririn-san…" mumbled the young half-Saiyan. The river was too silent, as not even a bubble came up.

Grape chuckled and called out, "Hey, baldy! I know you're there! Just come on out, and fight him already!"

Suddenly, a golden energy sphere flew towards Grape out of nowhere, almost as if on cue.

Grape widened his eyes in shock and shouted in surprise, "What?!" Wasting no time, the bug-eyed henchman immediately created another imagination so Gohan would intervene, and had him deflect the golden energy sphere away, which hit the railing of the bridge, destroying that portion of it.

Inari used the explosion's noise to drown out his movements as he ran the rest of the way before quickly picking up the sword. Now that the pre-teen had the sword in hand, he began to slowly creep towards Grape, careful to keep from revealing his presence.

Before the blast could completely subside, Kuririn came springing out of the river, flying towards the bug-eyed alien from the other side opposite where the blast came from. He reached back to throw a punch at Grape, but Gohan got in the way and caught his fist, but not before he managed to scratch the henchman's face.

Grape glared at Kuririn and growled, "D-Damn you…"

While holding Kuririn's fist, Gohan cheered, "You did it, Kuririn-san!"

Inari did not stop as he continued inching closer and closer to Grape from behind. As long as he went unnoticed by Grape, he could only hope to kill him sooner.

Grape clenched his fists tighter and dripped blood because of his fingernail. "Wound me, will you? I was going to toy with you for a while, but you just had to get on my nerve, you damn midget!"

Kuririn snickered at Grape, but it didn't last long as the controlled Gohan suddenly backhanded him in the face, sending the midget falling backwards hard before smashing into concrete bridge below. Kuririn winced as he glanced behind him, and just realized that he was now at end of the broken bridge.

He sat up, and chuckled, "Dammit… It's no use trying to kill Grape if he keeps forcing you in the way, Gohan."

"Kuririn-san," worried Gohan. Just then, his hands moved in front of his forehead as he overlapped his fingers. "Hey! He's making me use Masenko! If you don't move, it'll kill you!" He then began charging up the yellow energy sphere.

Kuririn grinned weakly, barely able to keep one eye open as he responded, "S-Sorry Gohan… I'm too beaten… I don't think I can get up anymore…"

Grape did not notice Inari creeping up behind him as he gloated, "Heh… Apparently, you can't move anymore. Now my new friend, or rather minion will send you to the Other World. Now, if I recall correctly, the name of this attack is Masenko, right?"

Gohan and Kuririn widened their eyes. How did he know the name of that attack?!

"What…? Oh you don't think I can read your minds too, do you? That's funny, but no…my minion kept shouting his attack's name when you guys were too busy killing my pets earlier," said Grape. "All right! It's time to meet your demise, baldy! Masenko!"

Gohan thrust his hands forward, and fired a beam of yellow energy sphere towards the astonished Kuririn.

'Heh…I've wo-…Agh!' thought the alien before a sharp sword pierced through his heart from the behind, leaving small gap in the hole. He coughed up some blood, and slowly looked over his shoulder, and he widened his eyes in shock. "Y-you!" Inari stared back at him with his original look of determination as held the sword, which was still piercing Grape's chest.

Suddenly, Gohan, who had finally been freed from Grape's control, managed to pull his Masenko wave away, just bending it past Kuririn into the river, as the water erupted up a little.

Gohan sighed in relief, before he realized that something or someone had gotten to Grape as he turned and looked back at the bug-eyed henchman and the pre-teen. Gohan, Kuririn, and Bulma were completely astounded, as none of them thought the boy could actually do it.

Then Inari pulled the sword out of Grape's chest, causing a large amount of blood spurt out onto the ground.

Grape weakly turned his body, and glared at Inari. "You brat! Pierce my heart, would you?!" He could not believe it! How an Elementian brat like him could manage to sneak up on him and kill him with a simple sword? He held his chest in pain, trying to stop the blood as he stepped forward towards the boy, but Inari stepped backward as well, staying out of the alien's reach.

How could he have forgotten about Inari?! He was too busy focusing on his fight. He had never expected someone to sneak on him and kill him without any noise!

Inari stood tall and looked deep into Grape's eyes, determined to make sure the alien was done fighting. He was not scared of him anymore as he remembered how Naruto told him to be brave two years ago, so he was going to be brave right now! "You got what you deserved…for killing my Grandpa and my mother."

Grape tried to reach Inari with his hand, but faltered as his energy fully depleted. His eyes started to get darker and darker before the alien said with his final breath, "You…Damn…Elementian…BRAT…!" before finally collapsing and passing away there on the bridge.

Inari was shaken, for he had never watched up close how the life truly seems to fade from one's eyes as they die. He then stared at his hands, and they were trembling in fear.

'I killed that man!' It was his first kill! His entire body trembled in fear as he went through the traumatic experience of his first kill in battle.

A hand was then gently placed on his shoulder, startling him a bit. He turned to see that it was Bulma, who showed concern for him. "Are you okay, kid?"

"I-I…I killed him…" muttered Inari nervously as he lowered his head.

Gohan and Kuririn were now walking over to Inari, talking as they did so. Apparently, Kuririn was fine all along, only trying to fool Gohan and Grape into thinking that he could not get up anymore. Kuririn told him that he saw how Inari was going to kill Grape. So he distracted the alien to let Inari get close enough and kill the bastard. Gohan concluded that it was all a bluff.

Kuririn, done with his explanation to Gohan, came walking up to Inari, and placed his hand on the boy's shoulder and smiled, "Thank you for saving me."

Inari frowned as he trembled in response, "But I killed him…I don't get why I feel so scared."

Kuririn chuckled as he realized the situation, "Of course, it's your first kill, right? Well, it's normal to feel that way. Everyone will be very nervous when they got their first kill. It happened to me when I was young and even Gohan got it younger than either of us. So it's ok…It happens to everyone. Unless you're a certain Saiyan Prince…" he muttered the last part, keeping it to himself as he picture what Vegeta might have felt in the same situation.

Gohan smiled, "Right… Naruto-san will get that feeling if he ever has his first kill!"

Inari snapped out of his fear at the mention of Naruto's name and looked at them. After gathering together the words he wanted to convey, the pre-teen said, "Whoever you three are, I want to thank you for saving me…But I'm curious, how do you know Naruto-san?"

Kuririn scratched his bald head and sighed. He was about to answer, but Bulma answered it first. "Well, Naruto-kun and his team came to our planet, and we became friends. He just came back to Element like two weeks ago."

"Different planet?" Inari's face was perplexed.

Bulma noticed Inari hadn't understand the concept. "I guess your planet has not encountered aliens.

"Aliens?"

"We are not from this planet. We are from planet called Earth. Far away from your home. Okay, let me put it in simple words. We just came here looking for Naruto. These people who you encountered are henchmen for Coola. I don't know what their schemes are, but they may be after Naruto."

Inari was confused when Bulma mentioned about the concept of different plantes, but understood the second part.

"By the way, I believe we haven't introduced ourselves properly. What's your name, kid?" asked Bulma.

"Inari," said the pre-teen as he introduced himself.

Bulma smiled, "Nice name. I'm Bulma."

Kuririn waved at Inari and smiled, "I'm Kuririn and he's Son Gohan. It's nice to meet you!" Gohan also greeted him by waving at him and smiling. Inari smiled and waved back at them.

"Inari-kun, isn't it? So what happened here?" asked Bulma.

Inari had terrible flashback about his family earlier. He began choking back sobs and leaking tears from his eyes as he sniffed, "A moment ago…"

(Flashback Begins)

Tazuna, Tsunami, and Inari had been forced to be slaves for Grape and his men. They were ordered to build nice house for them, so the invaders could linger there and relax. Why they wanted to relax and linger in a house was anybody's guess. However, Tazuna could not tolerate Grape and his men. He knew no one could tolerate them, and believed that it was time to do something!

Tazuna dropped the log he was carrying, seeming like he was giving up. That got Tsunami and Inari's attention.

"Grandpa?" asked a confused Inari.

Tazuna looked down at his grandson and smiled sadly, "Inari… I'm sorry… But you need to bring the other kids with you, and run away! Go to Konohagakure, and tell them our situation!" He turned away, determined not to let the pre-teen see the sad tears start to fall from his face.

"Do it! Get kids with you and run away! The Adults are going to distract him so you can run away. Now…!" his mother said sternly. Tsunami knew what her father intended, and had silently agreed to his plan as she stared into her son's eyes.

Inari was shocked, "What! Mom, Grandpa…No! You're going to be killed! Please, don't do this!"

Tsunami frowned, "Please go Inari… We don't want you to die. What would Kaiza say if you died here with us?"

Inari widened his eyes as he remembered his late step-father, who was killed by Gato and his goons. He frowned and lowered his head, getting her point as he responded, "All right…"

His mom smiled. "I love you, Inari…" said Tsunami as she bid her son a bittersweet goodbye.

Inari smiled sadly and said back, "I love you too, Mom." He then sniffed and nodded to his friends, who followed his lead as they ran away.

Then Tazuna and Tsunami turned and glared at Coola's henchmen. "Get out of our town! We are not working for you anymore! We will not give in to the likes of you anymore! We will risk our lives, and fight for this town! Let's go!" Tazuna concluded as he led the other town folks in a charge toward Coola's men.

They had grappled along with Coola's men for a while, until Grape landed in between them. Tazuna and others immediately tried attacking him, only for the alien to blast them away, killing them all with ease while kicking up massive cloud of dust.

Inari heard the explosion and stopped before whipping his head around to look back.

"Grandpa! Mom!" He was frozen in place as his friends struggled to try to drag him away, until he finally shook it off enough to regain his sensed and run. Unfortunately, Grape and his goons noticed them, and quickly chased them after them as Inari shredded tears from his eyes, having just lost the last of his own family.

(Flashback Ends)

"He… found us, and killed my friends…" Inari finished with a frown on his face.

Bulma frowned, "It must have been hard for you.

Kuririn chuckled, "Hey Bulma, don't forget about the Dragon Balls!"

Inari stared at Kuririn in confusion. "D-Dragon Balls?" His confusion and curiosity had lessened the pain of his memory a bit.

Gohan nodded, "Right! But it'll have to wait until we get to Konohagakure. We'll tell you about them then."

"Are you going to Konohagakure, too?" asked Inari.

"We're going to see Naruto-san, Sasuke-san, and Sakura-san," said Gohan as he chuckled.

"If you know where it is, could you lead us there? It's not like those three bothered to make us a map for when we decided to visit…" asked Bulma.

Inari nodded, "Right this way. But you know it's going to be long trip to Konohagakure, right?"

Kuririn smiled in response, "We don't mind." Gohan nodded in agreement with him, but Bulma groaned. She did not like to walk on long trips. She wished there was vehicle on this planet.

Inari, Gohan, Kuririn, and Bulma then turned and began their journey, on the way to Konoha and to deliver the news to their mutual friends.

(Meanwhile, at the New Akatsuki Hideout)

"I have called a meeting here, for I have an announcement to make… Recently, I was informed by Zetsu that Kisame was found dead on the coast of Land of Water." Pain said. Itachi twitched slightly, but it went unnoticed as Pain continued, "I also sent Deidara on a mission to engage one of Coola's men. It seems that one of them is an Elementian, like us." He stared down at Itachi. "He's a guy you may know. Zetsu claimed he's Uchiha Fayre."

"What the fuck?! There's fucking more Uchiha?!" shouted Hidan.

"Shut up. I'm going to rip your throat if you talk more!" growled Kakuzu.

"Deidara better not waste his time and loiter around over there," muttered a hunched old man. "I hate waiting."

Itachi almost showed his shocked expression, but quickly hid it. "That's Impossible. Uchiha Fayre was killed by the Kyuubi 15 years ago."

"It's true," the black voice said. Two large venus fly-trap like extensions that enveloped Zetsu's black-white head and upper body, giving him a plant-like appearance as he emerged from the ground next to the hologram of Pain. "Fayre, or rather Fye as he chooses to be called now, is still alive. He's on Coola's side, leading him from one major village to another…"

"Zetsu, what did they do this time?" asked Pain.

The white half of Zetsu sighed, "The Frog man destroyed Iwagakure very quick. He's not that kind of type who will like to stay in battle longer. Coola's men have stupendous amount of power."

"Good. Now that we've sent Deidara to engage Uchiha Fayre, I need you to go back and observe their fight right away," commanded Pain. Zetsu nodded at him, and once again submerged.

"Tell me more about Uchiha Fayre, Itachi…" commanded Pain as he turned back to the former leaf shinobi.

Itachi sighed, "I only know him a little. However, I've heard many things about him from the Sandaime Hokage, and few others from my clan as well. Uchiha Fayre was a genius and excellent scientist in the Uchiha Clan. He's also an excellent ninja, widely considered the number one ninja in his generation. Unfortunately, he did not do what most Uchiha expected him to, for about once every month, he made an attempt to kill Hatake Kakashi for revenge."

"Because of what?" asked Pain curiously.

"Because he thought Kakashi had killed his older brother, who was Hatake's teammate. But it was found that his brother was actually crushed by a large rock in a cave, and died there."

"What was his brother's name?" asked Pain once again.

"Uchiha Obito… Since Obito's death, we tried to keep him under control, but he couldn't get over his revenge. There were numerous times where he should have been thrown in prison, but the Hokage didn't want to do that, thanks to his amazing skills. Of course, ANBU was ordered to keep an eye on him in case if he planned a murder on Kakashi, but he just kept doing that, at least until the Kyuubi incident. He was found dead in the forest during the cleanup."

"He must've used a fake corpse," deduced Pain, "It's an S Rank Jutsu. It's also been classified as a kinjutsu (Forbidden Technique). It's safe to assume that Coola was there during the Kyuubi incident and recruited Fayre into his group, so Fayre used the Jutsu to replicate a corpse of himself to fool Hokage and others."

"Naruto and Sasuke suddenly disappeared along with their teammate and Orochimaru from the face of this planet. If Coola is looking for Naruto, it must mean they wronged him somehow on a different planet," realized Itachi.

Pain nodded, "That's why I sent Deidara to engage Uchiha Fayre. We have seen the capabilities of his two henchmen, but we haven't seen Fayre in action. Itachi, do you have any knowledge about his jutsu?"

The hunchbacked and grumpy old man stared at Itachi. "How strong is Fayre? Given that he's under Coola, he might have learned the new energy source from Coola, considering they are not using Chakra. I doubt if Deidara will be of any match to Fayre, considering the vast amount of power Coola's henchmen possess."

"He's strong, Sasori. Like I said, he was a rookie ninja in his graduation class, and was one of the top ninja in Konohagakure. Even without their energy source, Deidara might not be able to beat Fayre. All depends on their level," explained Itachi.

"Deidara was given an order to engage Uchiha Fayre, if anything should become a threat to his life, he should be able to gather some Intel, and come back here," said Pain.

Hidan scoffed, "A typical bastard Uchiha! What's so special about the Uchiha anyways?! No one can kill me!"

Kakuzu glared at Hidan. "You underestimate people too much. You already lost your head once. Without me, you wouldn't be able to reattach them. To prove a point, the next time you lose your head, I won't reattach it…"

Hidan pointed at Kakuzu and scowled, "Every damn time… That's not something you should say to me… If they would happen to kill me, I wouldn't be happier. Although… I don't think they can!"

Pain sighed, "We're missing one member who I was supposed to introduce to you all here. I will have to introduce the new member later since we have discussed all other items on the table. For now, this meeting is adjourned." With that, the hologram of Pain disappeared and soon, the others followed.

(Meanwhile, in the Land of Earth)

Coola, Paradox, Guure, and Fye continued to walk through the rocky area. According to Fye, they would be entering the next land, within the next hour.

Paradox was too bored, so he decided to start conversation with his comrade. "So, Fye…"

Fye rolled over his eyes. He knew Paradox would not and could not keep his mouth shut! Sometimes, he just wished that Coola would kill Paradox. "Hn… What do you want?"

"What was your brother like?" asked Paradox. Suddenly, Fye glared at him and snarled. Paradox realized that he had found a touchy subject for the Elementian, so he pushed him further of course! "Oh, c'mon Mr. Mysterious! Stop getting mad every time someone mentioned your brother or asks you about your past…! No one here knows a whole lot about you, so would you just answer my damn question, Emo King!"

Fye stopped walking, and glared at Paradox. Coola and Guure sighed as they stopped as well, letting the two settle their never-ending squabble once again.

Fye snarled, "Don't you EVER speak about my brother!" Paradox scoffed at his angry comment as Fye clenched his fists, and growled even more. He held the gaze for a moment before he thought about it himself, and realized that he should not be very angry, since Paradox was just asking a simple question. Relenting, the Elementian sighed, "Whatever. I'll answer your question if you will just stop mentioning my brother."

Paradox shrugged sarcastically, holding back his utter joy that something interesting was finally coming out of Fye's mouth, "Yeah, yeah."

"He was…" Fye hesitated for a second.

"Kibaku Nendo! (Explosive Clay) Art is a blast!" a voice shouted, forcing Fye to stop as a medium piece of clay dropped down towards him.

To be continued…

Well…How about that!?

Bru-Sensei again.

I must say that I am just as surprised as you guys must be about learning who Fye really was. I only just read it now myself as I edited. Oh well…Guess it's time to get going and let Jerry fill you in on what's coming next chapter.

Wait…Speaking of Jerry, why do I suddenly feel like I can hear Vegeta screaming in rage like he somehow heard that I said I know where Goku is…He does know I was joking right…? Uh-oh, I sense danger in the near future...

So yeah…um…BYE!

Jerry: All right! Before I end it, I would like to announce you that I just created new two Twitter Accounts and Facebook Page.

Simple... If you have twitter accounts, then please follow TeamZUpdates and Murderdeath21. So that's way I can keep you update on what we're doing. I can let you know when I'm done with chapter. I can let you know when I passed on to my beta readers so they can edit my story.

If you have Facebook, please go to www dot facebook dot com / teamzupdate and like it. Admins and I will post pictures to keep you entertainment, and keep my facebook page activity more. :D Also, Admins and I will do the same thing we will do on Twitter. Now Murderdeath21's out! :D

Now please read and reviews! :D Any question? Ask right away. Please go to my profile and vote on which you want to end and make a sequel. Coola Saga or Cell Saga?

With that, I'm out!

Vegeta: JERRRRY! I just hear your worthless friend say that he knows where Kakarrot is! Call him now!

Me: Whoa...! I can't! He's busy, and do you realize he's joking, right?

Vegeta: WHAT?! How dare he make fun of me?! I will blast him off into next dimension when I see him! (Walks out of room)

Me: (sweat-drops) Sigh... How can I handle him? It's going to be long way to go back to Earth. Then again, he wanted to go to different planet because he sensed a lot of powers. So called OVER 9,000! Ugh... I'm out now. Good night.
