Oh, funny, you should ask me how's my Halloween last night. In fact, I costumed as Vegeta as my Halloween costume in front of real Vegeta! Boy, you should look at his reaction! When I costumed as Vegeta, I was not acting like him at all. He was so furious and threatened me to take it off. Of course, I refused and continued to humiliate him.
Vegeta: But I landed the spaceship on an enemy planet. Look what you've gotten. They thought you were me! HA!
Me: Damn you, Vegeta! You could've gotten me killed when they were chasing me away! But I guess you used that as an excuse to kill Freeza's soldiers.
Vegeta: (Smirks) I wasn't kidding when I threatened you.
Me: Damn you, you and your smart ass!
Vegeta: (evil laughing) Hahaha! I'm going to increase gravity just to make you suffering! See you later!
Me: (Panicking) Hey, please don't increase gravity! Imagine what I could handle it. I would fall to my death! Dammit, he's gone! Anyways... (Looks at audience) Now, I think we should get on with the story. Let me call Beta Reader for disclaimer. (Dials his phone number) Hello, Naru-kun97. Wait! That voice... What're you doing?! Noo... Why'd you do that?! What am I going to do without disclaimer?!
(Masked Man suddenly wraps to here, and I almost fall)
Masked Man: I suppose I should wish you all a happy Halloween…Anyways…..if you all are wondering what happened to that worthless Beta Reader…you'll find out at the end of the story….The stupid author murderdeath21 doesn't own Naruto or Dragon Ball Z so don't sue him! Enjoy…I guess… (Wraps away again)
Me: Hey, bring my Beta Reader back! Stupid, stupid! I neeeeeeed him! (Sighs) What am I going to do without him? I guess we can continue without him. Anyways, enjoy the story! (Suddenly fall down due to increase of gravity) DAMN YOU, VEEEEEEEGEEEEETAAAA!
Chapter 105: A Mysterious Voice
Age 763, December 1- Hokage Mansion, Konohagakure, Land of Fire, Planet Element- With Sakura and Hinata
"You called for us, Hokage-sama?" Sakura asked Tsunade whom sat behind the desk placing her elbows on the desk by Shizune with the pig held in her arm, as she stood alongside Hinata in front of the desk.
Hinata had not been herself lately. She was pretty sulking for long times after she found out that her Father, and her cousin Neji had died. Not to mention she witnessed her sister Hanabi being killed in front of her very eyes. That's all she found out in one week. After that, she refused to speak to everyone except Sakura herself. Some said that Hinata and Sakura finally bonded together, as almost if they were best friends right now.
Shikamaru even agreed with that, but Ino refused to admit it, and only said that Sakura was merely teaching Hinata how to use Ki, nothing more.
Rock Lee and Tenten arrived last night, and they delivered bad news to them. Neji died, and Gai fought some bad guy who was the member of Coola's group. Even worse, they learned that one of Coola's member was also Elementian and was Konoha shinobi, now nuke-nin (although it was not official status, so many still believed him to be dead during the attack of the Kyuubi).
But Gai never returned, so most of them believed him to be dead, but Rock Lee was in denial, saying that he could be still alive.
But when Rock Lee revealed something that shocked Kakashi and others except young ones the most was that they had encountered an Uchiha Survivor, and his name was Fayre. Kakashi did not believe him, and still denied that Fayre was still alive, because he saw him dead with his own eyes.
When Sakura asked him how did Fayre die, and Kakashi responded by saying that he killed him. Before Sakura could question him, Kakasi claimed that Fayre was forcing him to kill him, and he was traumatized since then.
Konohagakure was not the same since the small invasion of Konoha, Most citizens quivered in fear in their house and waited to die when Coola's men were coming soon. But once they were informed that Coola and his men are coming, they would begin evacuating citizens to keep them safe.
Tsunade nodded, and then looked at Shizune, as if she was telling her something by a glance.
Shizune nodded repeatedly, as she was reminded that she needed to give them something, so she beckoned Sakura to hand the scroll over to her.
Sakura unrolled the scroll, as to read the message. She gasped. "This…"
Tsunade nodded, "A message from Tankazu Quarters. Coola's men are currently fighting Akatsuki."
Sakura and Hinata looked up at Tsunade in shock. "Akatsuki?!" cried the pink-haired girl.
"Are Akatsuki the organization that are after the beasts that are inside Naruto-kun and other 8?" Hinata finally spoke up, asking Tsunade.
Of course, when the subject came to Naruto, sullen Hinata would be most likely to engage in the conversation. It's always Naruto-kun this, and Naruto-kun that. It seemed that she had not get it over the fact that Sakura's dating him. But now she did not mind, as seeing that Hinata and she developed a friendship between them. She was glad for that.
Well, she was pretty upset, too. Her powers were gone, and she's unable to use Ki, thanks to gun. The gun basically sucked almost whole of her Ki, meaning she had few Ki inside her. She learned that she could no longer using Ki, but she could still use Chakra.
But lucky, last night, Bulma suspected that there might be a way to bring her Ki back by using the gun, but she would need to research what's inside the gun, and she would need to modify the gun, so she could bring Sakura's power rather than sucking more Ki.
Hinata asked Bulma why they could not use a gun on Sakura again. Bulma responded by saying that if she shot her again, Sakura may have died this time for sure. So that's why Bulma brought the gun with her to research more about it, as well as modifying it. Once she modified the gun that could possibly restore her Ki, then she would have to shot her, but it was high-risky.
Bulma explained that this gun was a laser gun, along with a unique power. Once Ki users was shot, depend on how strong they are, they would lose Ki, for one-hundred percentage sure, and may have dead if not being taken care properly, or instantly dead.
So even if Bulma modified the laser gun, Sakura either may have put to near-death again or may be dead for sure. All of her friends were concerned that she, without possession of Ki, would die from that gun. They even wondered if there's any other way to restore her Ki.
Bulma denied it, and said that there was only one way...
Sakura must be shot by the very same gun that she lost her Ki power to, and when she did, she must be healed immediately, just like Tsunade healed her three days ago, then all of her Ki would be restored fully.
The truth is, she was very nervous about getting shot again. She did not wish to experience that again, but there was only one way. That's why she was teaching Hinata how to use Ki and training her how to fight properly, though Hinata could fight with her traditional Hyuuga taijutsu.
"SAKURA!" Tsunade bellowed, snapping Sakura out of her thought. She even slammed her hand on the table in attempt to get her attention. That was very loud enough for Sakura to notice that.
Shizune chuckled nervously, trying to soothe Tsunade. "Now, now…" The pig just oinked.
Sakura just realized that she was spacing too long, and was also aware that Shizune and Hinata were staring at her with deadpan. She was rather embarrassed because she was never spacing out when Hokage-sama or her sensei was giving a lecture. But that was not the first time she had done this.
Tsunade sighed with disappointment. "You're spacing out again."
Sakura chuckled nervously, as she rubbed his back hair sheepishly. "Yeah, I'm sorry, Hokage-sama. I'll be okay."
Hinata stole a glance at Sakura with her pupils alone. 'She's not herself recently. She is not herself since she lost her Ki powers. Without Ki, she can't do anything, but healing. In other words, she's useless. Until she has gotten her Ki back, I have to protect her with new energy source I have right now. But… I don't know if I can fight them. The bad guys. They're too strong, even for Sakura to handle. Sasuke-kun was defeated by one of Coola's men too easily. I only learned how to fight with Ki. I don't know how strong I am now. But for the time being, I have to protect her, and not to let her get killed off.'
"All right. I will explain it once more." Tsunade began, but shot Sakura an if-you-space-out-again-I-will-strangle-you-in-your-sleep glare.
Sakura sweat-dropped on back of her head, as she chuckled nervously. Given that she had no possession of Ki, it would not be best to anger Hokage-sama.
Tsunade clasped her hands together on her chin with her elbows rest on the desk. "We all know that Akatsuki can't beat Coola's group. If they're at Tanzaku Quarters, then that would be three days walking from there. In other words, we have a plenty of time to do something we must do. That's why I call you both here. You both are only here that have a potential possible to pass the mission. It's going to be hard, especially with you both. Originally, it was going to be you alone, Sakura, but you lost Ki power, so I decided to add Hinata to this mission, given that she recently got the power of Ki. She's only adept at Ki, which is going to be hard."
Tsunade pulled the cabinet file from her desk to pick up the scroll, and then she closed it, as she put it on the desk and unrolled the scroll, revealing that it was map of Konohagakure. She beckoned Sakura and Hinata to take a look at it.
"You're given an S- Rank mission and that is to infiltrate Root's base, that's where Danzo would be at." Tsunade explained, as she pointed out the location of Root's base. "We found it right there. Very far behind Ninja Academy. There should be cave that leads to underground. That's where Root base should be. Now as for details of the mission, I want you both to capture him and bring to Konohagakure Intelligence Division. As for other Root members, do what you want with them. Do you understand?"
Sakura and Hinata nodded.
They both knew what Tsunade wanted. She wanted to gather some information from Danzo, and why he's doing this when Element was in danger.
Danzo ordered his Root members to murder Hinata's Mother, he ordered them to murder Hinata's good friend who reminded her of Naruto, he ordered them to capture Naruto and attempted to have him executed in front of Konoha just because he had a host of Kyuubi sealed inside him only after Team 7 came back to Element, he ordered them to murder Sakura's parents, and finally, he murdered Hinata's sister by his own hands in front of her very own eyes.
They also heard that Danzo tried to kill Naruto when he was a baby, but since Sandaime Hokage turned him down, he tried to use Naruto as a weapon when war should come, but then again, Sandaime Hokage turned it down again. He even order them to attempt to assassinate him, but it was also failure. He also ordered them to take Kakashi's Sharingan that was given by Obito, but that one also failed.
So, enough is enough!
That's why Sakura and Hinata must stop him at once, and have him thrown in the dungeon, for all they cared! They always hated him, ever since they first met him. He was cold-hearted bastard and very corrupted bastard!
Tsunade sat back, as she sighed with big relief. "Good… But before you go, you must know something. We must tell you about one of member of Coola's group. It's about Uchiha Fayre." Before she could reveal, there was a knock on the door… She knew who it was, and smiled. "Come in."
The door opened, as one person just came in. Sakura and Hinata looked around, only to find Sandaime Hokage, Sarutobi Hirzuen, whom came in, while smoking a pipe.
"You're just on time, Sandaime-sama. I was about to tell them about Fayre. Surely, you know more about him and his mother than everyone, right?" asked Tsunade.
Hirzuen held his pipe off from his mouth, as he blew the smoke out of his mouth, chuckling lightly. "Ah, you're talking about that half-breed. Yes, that's correct. In fact, I knew who his Mother was. His real Mother."
Sakura and Hinata were very confused about that last part of Hirzuen's comment.
"Half of what? Half Uchiha, you mean?" A confused Sakura asked, looking for an answer from Hirzuen as soon as possible.
Hirzuen sucked the tip of the pipe into his mouth, and inhaled before blowing it again. "What I'm about to tell you is secret S-rank information. You must not tell everyone of this. Only in this room can know, but not everyone, not even Naruto or Sasuke. Do you understand?"
Sakura and Hinata nodded, eager to hear what Hirzuen was about to reveal top secret S-rank information to him. HIrzuen sighed, before inhaling and blowing the smoke, as he began to explain.
Unknown Place- With Fayre
Eyes opened, as he stared up at nothing, but a full of black void in front of him. "Am I dead? Yes, this has to be! I'm dead after all. This is what dead place look like? IF that's the case, it must be suck to live in a black void for eternity. Heh, damn… After having been to near-death too many times, I did really die this time. Damn, I haven't gotten my vengeance. You're so lucky, Kakashi. You live, and I died. But at least, I get to see nii-sama and Mom.'
Suddenly, a woman stood between his arms, as she smirked down at him. She had long black spiky hair down to her waist length, along with black eyes. She wore purple collar shirt with Uchiha clan symbol emblem on her back. But what's more embarrassed, she wore a skirt that only go down to above her knees, revealing the panties beneath the skirt to him, making him blush.
'Her panties' color is…'Fayre shook off his pervert thought, as he crawled back away from her, staring nervously at her. He had no idea who she was, and yet, he already blushed at the sight of her undies.
A woman crossed her arms below her breasts and grinned sharply at him. "Yo!" But what he just noticed is that her breasts were big as her Mom, and she was so beautiful. Very beautiful dead woman! He was not pervert, but when girl showed off her explicit stuff to him, he's easily blushed.
"H-H-Hi… W-Who are you?" stammered Fayre, reddening his cheeks even worse.
"Who am I? That's for you to figure out!" The woman waggled her finger, giggling at Fayre's bewilderment.
Fayre scrambled to his feet, while giving a disappoint face and blush at the same time. "I never thought you're going to be first thing I see in afterlife. Do they usually send erotic woman like you to see a dead people? I didn't realize afterlife is so such a pervert place!"
The woman grabbed Fayre's cheek, and started pinching them. "Aww! You have nice cheeks! You're so cute, Fayre~!" She squealed like any teen girls would. "You looook soooo adoooorable~!" She kept pinching his cheeks, and started pulling his cheeks, treating it like a rubber.
"Ow! Ow! Stop playing with my cheeks! It hurts so much!" Fayre whimpered with no vain in attempt to stop her.
Eventually, the woman finally stopped pinching and pulling his cheeks, but next, she flickered his forehead with her fingers. He soothed his forehead, scowling at her.
A woman noticed him scowling at her, but she paid no mind to it. "First of all, I am not an erotic woman!" He looked up and down at her, as if he's telling her that she was, only to have his cheek pinched again. "I repeat, I'm not erotic woman! Is that clear?" She said with annoyance in her tone, clenching her fist, as if to dare him to call her again or anything that implied it.
"B-But—" Fayre cleared his throat, but what really scared him is that the woman shook her fists violently, and stream just oozed out of her head comically. He halted his sentence, and gulped nervously. "Yes, crystal clear! Crystal clear! Don't hurt me again! Crystal clear!"
"YAAAAAY!" The woman squealed, as she embraced him in very tight hug. "Very good! Now we're on same page, Fayreeeee-kun!"
Fayre could not breathe freely, as his body was being crushed by her. It was almost as if he was being crushed by the Great Ape's hand, even though, he never been encountered one before. It was more than he could handle, and he yelled in pain. "Ow, ow! You're hurting me again!"
Thankfully, the woman immediately backed off from him, and realized that he was panting hyperventilation, trying to catch up with oxygen. "Oh, no! You're more fragile as everyone than I thought!"
"Of course, everyone are fragile unless you're Saiyan, Frostians, Namekians, or pretty much Ki user! I am Elementian, so of course, I'm going to be very fragile! You hugged too hard. Who are you and what are you?!" Fayre shot her a suspicious glance.
The woman poked his chest very lightly, and smiled cheerfully at him. He did not know what's up with her, and he started to believe that there's more crazy dead people in the afterlife.
"Second of all, you're not dead." The woman revealed to him.
Fayre widened his eyes in shock. "What?!"
How was he still alive? How did he not die? He recalled that Itachi stabbed him in the chest where no one could survive. Before he "died", he saw Itachi stabbed by the masked man. He assumed that Itachi died as well. But he was not dead. So, how did he survive the sword into his chest? Or maybe Itachi chose to spare his life, but for what cost?
Then he remembered what Itachi whispered into his ears. Those words were said, "Not yet. You're not ready to die, Fayre-sensei. I missed your vital on purpose. You'll wake up, and you will find me laying on the floor, dead. I only spare you because I trust you. When you wake up, you must defeat the masked man. You must obey Coola's orders, and you must fight Kakashi to find an answer. He will have a lot of information you need to know from him. Once you find everything you need to know from Kakashi, you'll fight alongside with him, and you must fight Coola with your new allies. And one more thing… Obito is still alive."
'Hn…'Fayre scowled, never forgetting that Itachi took a mockery out of him. 'He's talking nonsense! He thinks I'm going to fight alongside with Kakashi! NEVER! He's the one who killed my brother! And Obito is still alive? Pfft!"
He scoffed. 'Impossible! I haven't seen him in years. There's no way he's still alive! If that's the case, then I wonder where he was. Or could he be the masked man?'
He shook off the thought on his head, chuckling at himself for thinking that way. "Nonsense! I doubt so! He can't the masked man who tried to kill me. There's no way Nii-san would do that to me!" He realized that he literally thought out loud!
"Hmm… He could be the one." The woman just spoke up, snapping Fayre out of his thought, as he looked at her in surprise. "Oh, well! You don't judge book by its cover, do you?"
She placed her hand on his chest and smiled cheerfully again. "And I can read your mind, too. I know what you're thinking all the times! So you should realize that I'm in your mindscape by now. So, I'm curious. Your early thought just caught me by surprise. How do you like my panties' color?"
Fayre's whole face already reddened, and started to blush violently. "I-I d-don't k-know!"
'What's up with her lately? She's really erotic woman!'Fayre then realized that she could still read his mind. He nervously glanced at the woman's reaction, and of course, her face was very scowl. 'Oh, shit! I really thought that out. Smooth move, Fayre! Really smooth move!'
"Might as well drop this act, since you kept saying this stuff to me." A sudden change of tone in the woman, as she turned around.
Obviously she was acting whole time. Come to think of it, he recalled that she was the one who spoke inside her mind during his fight with Itachi. He would have to thank her later for saving him earlier in the fight with Itachi. If it was not for her, he would have been in "drunken world of genjutsu" for eternity.
Then he noticed something that dark-brown furry… tail?! Dark-brown furry tail waggled around that attached into her butt.
He was startled by the sight of the tail, as he stumbled back and fell on his butt, staring in shock at her. "A Saiyan?!"
Why was a Saiyain inside his mindscape? And why was she wearing Uchiha clan crest on her back? There's too many question on his mind right now.
She chuckled without looking behind her at him. "What? Are you surprised I'm a Saiyan? You wondered why I'm inside your mindscape. Why am I wearing Uchiha crest on my back shirt? Go figure."
Fayre widened his eyes as big as his face paled. "You were adopted by an Uchiha clan? And… you're sealed inside me?!"
Well, now that was awkward. There was a person sealed inside him, instead of Biju (tailed beast)! Even worse, a woman been inside him whole times. Wait! That means… His face started to become red very fast, really fast! 'She'd seen me naked many times!'
"Heh…" A woman turned around, and grinned at him. "You're so smart. You figured it out that fast."
Suddenly, realization dawned on his face. Now he remembered that every baby Saiyan whom had very low battle powers were sent to exterminate every living being on that planet. His red face quickly disappeared, as he made a scowl face, growling at him.
"You're a Saiyan that was sent to exterminate us!" He then shifted into his fighting stance, as he raised his fists. "WHO ARE YOU?!"
"Erize." A woman quickly replied. "Uchiha Erize."
"What?!" Fayre shocked and confused at the same time, letting his fists down. "You say your name is Uchiha Erize? That's not Saiyan name."
Erize shrugged, "Son Goku is not his real name, either. Anyways, you need to calm down. Sometimes, you're overreacting."
Fayre scowled.
Erize smirked. "See? You're scowling. You're scowling at everything. When you see a Saiyan here that sealed inside you, you implied that I did something to attempt to exterminate every Elementians. Well, I tried, but only because I had a reason."
Fayre frowned. "You did say that you tried, since that was your mission in the first place."
"No… That was not my mission. In fact, I never had a mission when I was sent to Element as a baby."
"What?!" Fayre was shocked. He never heard of a Saiyan that was sent to a planet without a mission. "How is it possible?"
Erize stared at her own hands and smiled. "I never knew who I was, or what I was. I was always Uchiha Erize. Apparently, I was sent to Element without a mission. I think I know why. I had too low battle power, and I was unable to use Ki at all. I never used Ki in my life until at later age before I was sealed into you."
"What happened exactly?" Fayre suddenly asked. Erize shot him a puzzle look, and he sighed. "Tell me what happened exactly? Why are you sent to Element? Who found you? Why are you sealed into me? And more importantly, why are you wearing Konoha hitai-ate?"
He pointed at her waist that donned the hitai-ate around her waist.
"Tell me everything!" Fayre wanted to have many questions answered. There's so many question that left unanswered from her. There's still mysterious aura shrouded around her.
Erize waved her hands off at him, shrugging and sighing. "Fine, fine… You're going to be in for surprise when I tell you my story."
Fayre scoffed, as he shook his head and chuckled. "Don't worry. I'm used to be surprised most of my life. When someone's telling me a story, they always surprise me. Last time, Paradox told me a story, he told me he can rewind the time at his will, I didn't believe in him, but he actually did it, so I was surprised. So I'll believe any next story you tell me. I got a Sharingan to detect a lie."
"All right… I'm your Mother, Fayre." Erize revealed all of the sudden, as Fayre widened his eyes in shock.
Hokage Mansion, Konohagakure, Land of Fire, Planet Element- With Sakura and Hinata
"No way!" Sakura gasped, widening her eyes with amazement. She'd listened to Sandaime Hokage's whole story, as he just finished telling the story. "You mean there was a Saiyan here before?"
Sandaime Hokage nodded, holding his pipe firmly in his mouth to inhale it before smoking it again. "I found her outside the Konoha when she crashed there in her spaceship. I figured she was an alien when she was in very strange pod—the one that you called a spaceship. There she waved her tail around, and smiled at me, I held her in my arm. I thought it was strange to have a tail, but she was an alien, so it was understandable. But I never thought it was a Saiyan that was sent to a planet to exterminate every living beings on this planet. To be frankly, I was shocked when you told us a stuff about Saiyan on the day you and your teammates returned."
Sakura was thinking about this half-Elementian guy. She just learned that this Half-Elementian was an Uchiha, too. She assumed that the one that Bulma, Gohan, and Kuririn told her about back when they fought Grape who mentioned him. She also learned that Uchiha Fayre was supposed to die during the attack of Kyuubi, but he was alive, confirmed by Rock Lee. But one thing that bothered her for a while.
Why did he left?
She needed to know more about Fayre. Of course, typical Uchiha would leave the village. After all, Uchiha Madara left the village very long times ago, because it didn't go the way he wanted, so he died in the battle against Senju Hashirama, the Shodai Hokage (First Hokage) at the Valley of the End.
Uchiha Itachi left the village after massacring the Uchiha clan and allowed Sasuke to live, only to scar him for a life and changed his life completely. She heard that he joined the Akatsuki to hunt the jinchuriki.
Now, she learned that Uchiha Fayre, Half-Elementian, left the village, and also the planet during the attack of the Kyuubi to join Coola's group. Right now they were attacking Element for only one purpose and that is to find Naruto for making fun of his species.
"That's strange. Two years ago, a Saiyan named Raditz told us all about the Saiyan. Any Saiyan baby with a low level power are sent to low-level planet on a mission to exterminate every one of living beings on the planet. But that woman… Have she been hit in the head, so that made her forgetting about her true mission? Just like Goku?"
Sandaime Hokage shook his head, but this time, he did not smoke, as he began to frown. "No… Not that I know of, she was never hit in the head. Though she's very fiery woman, she grew up to be very determinant, who wanted to fight very strong opponent, and to be the strongest ninja in the whole world. But… at some point, she did try to destroy the village when we were trying to kill her, because she discovered a strange power source that we never had seen, the thing you called a Ki. We had identified them as very dangerous power that must be disposed of, so I ordered ANUB to kill her… But she killed them all, and went on a rampage until there was a hero that saved us that day."
She contemplated about that Saiyan woman, and why she's sent to Element without a mission? She never had an amnesia, yet she never had a mission to begin with anyways. But then she recalled when Vegeta told her about the Saiyan that was sent to Element during three months interval between Freeza's death, and Naruto's retrieval.
When she asked him if any of Saiyan survivors other than four survivors were at another planet during the genocide of planet Vegeta, Vegeta responded that he doubted there was any Saiyan survivors on different planets, because Freeza sent his men to exterminate them before destroying their planet.
But Sakura stated that she did not believe that all Saiyans were dead. After all, Freeza missed Goku when he left for Earth. Also, Vegeta, Raditz, and Nappa were still alive even after the destruction of planet Vegeta. She still believed that Freeza must have missed pretty much of Saiyans out in the universe. There's too many babies to be sent to other planet for the mission, after all.
That did remind Vegeta, as he recalled being told a story by his Father. In fact, once upon a time, his Grandfather, King Veggie, executed two Saiyans, who were mated together, for sending their daughter to weak planet with no mission. That girl was scheduled to be executed for being a weakling with a power of a mere one.
A mere one battle power was considered a failure to most Saiyans' eyes. Once a baby was born with only one battle power, that one would be scheduled to be executed.
That's why her parents, despite being ferocious battle warriors, feared for her daughter, so they chose to defy late King Veggie by sending her to a planet. Not only that they sent their daughter without their King's permission, they also removed coordinate from her spaceship, so that way Saiyans could not track her spaceship.
That story made Sakura believed that there could be more Saiyan survivors than they thought. Vegeta scoffed by saying that only four—or maybe five, Saiyan survivors at the time during the genocide of their home world.
But his last words before he flew away made her shiver a bit. He said those words. "But as for Saiyan woman, even without coordinate in her spaceship, she could be dead in one of planets. There's too many dangerous and insane planets in the universe. Even as a baby, she could be killed by the time she landed there."
Even today, Sakura still believed that there's more Saiyans out in the universe. Maybe, like missing-nin, Saiyans could leave planet Vegeta of their own accord and became renegade Saiyans. And maybe, like, most babies that were sent to different planets probably killed Freeza's men that was ordered to kill them. And psychopath Saiyans could be on rampage somewhere in the universe, destroying planets for fun.
She shook her head, perishing the thought of psychopath Saiyans. She hoped she would not meet one of them.
'Anyways, that must be her Vegeta was talking about. Who've thought the planet she's going to would be planet Element? And she has a son?"thought Sakura.
There was some question that left unanswered, and she need them now from Sandaime Hokage. She broke out of her long thought and locked her gaze into his eyes. "You said someone sealed her inside Fayre when he was a baby?" Old man responded with a simple nod. "Then who? The one who sealed her into him? Was that one of our kind as well? Was it Elementian?"
Sandaime Hokage reflected the memory of his, when that all happened. He shook his head, closing his eyes with a sigh. "No… It wasn't Elementian. In fact, it was an alien." He opened his eyes, looking at Sakura who waited to hear what kind of species that alien was. "He called himself a Galactic Patrolman."
"Galactic Patrolman what?!" Sakura was very surprised. "You mean space police or something?"
"That's correct." Sandaime Hokage nodded, as he took another inhale of his pipe before smoking it. "He's a space man. Galactic Patrolmen are a space police organization that are hunting any aliens that illegally resident in any planets or any aliens that are potentially threat. That's why he came here on the mission to arrest her, but his sealing pot was destroyed during his fight against her, so he had no choice but to seal her into her own son. Gratefully, the fight took a place outside Konohagakure, so no one actually knew about aliens with the exception of few ANBU, couples of Uchihas, Danzo, two advisors, and me."
'Danzo!'Sakura frowned. 'I wonder if that corrupted bastard tried to do anything with him before?!'
Sandaime Hokage chuckled with some amusement memory. "I wonder how much this could be prevented if I actually did what they suggested me to."
"They suggested you what?" puzzled Sakura.
"Kill her when she was a baby." Sandaime Hokage responded with a sad smile. "But… I turned them down. I couldn't bear the thought of killing babies without any remorse, so I took her under my care for three months until Uchiha adopted her."
'I never knew there were aliens here before. In other words, Coola wasn't the first alien to be here. I wonder how many aliens been here before?'wondered Sakura.
"Do you understand?" Lady Hokage stood up, looking at Sakura and Hinata for answers. "Do you understand why we're telling you this, including Hinata?"
Sakura nodded, understanding well fully, but Hinata shook her head, because she was not sure why she was involved in this very secret conversation. She literally had no idea what Saiyans are really, yet she was involved. Other than that, she understood why Sakura had to be into this conversation, because she had seen Saiyans fighting and even half-Saiyan. Like Gohan, for instance.
Tsunade sighed, trying to explain why. "I'm telling you both because Sakura here is very well aware of Saiyans' fighting types and their strategy. You will be needing her because when you're fighting Fayre with your new power, while she's making a strategy to defeat him… should you both meet him eyes-to-eyes. But it probably won't be happening at all, because he most likely will go after Kakashi."
'So what's the point of telling us classified information if the lower chance of us fighting Fayre soon?'Hinata was rather disappointed and sweat-dropping on back of her head.
"Anyways, remember you have your mission today. You're to infiltrate Danzo's base. Find him, capture him, and bring him to me tonight." Tsunade reminded them. They both nodded at her. "Good. You're dismissed now. But remember, you mustn't tell everyone of this top secret information."
Sakura and Hinata nodded and bowed before both Hokage-sama, as they turned around, stepping towards the door.
"Sakura-san, Hinata-sama…" Sandaime Hokage called out to them, as they stopped, and turned around. He then threw a bag to Sakura, who casually caught it. "I'll return a bag of Senzu Beans to you, but it's only three beans."
Sakura opened the bag and took a look inside the bag. She sighed. 'It was eight beans before, and now three beans left. He must have used five beans on his experiment. Oh, well. No big deal. Three beans should be sufficient anyways.'
"I already had them to experiment, but it was almost difficult to plant one. I already failed four beans. However, I already successfully experimented one, but not as good as yours. My Senzu Beans can now restore half of them along with their Ki and their Chakra, and their injuries as well. It's the least we could use it for our future needs. Yours are up to you to use it anyhow as you see fit. I already grew ten Senzu Beans for ourselves. Apparently, it was much easier than the original Senzu Beans." Sandaime Hokage explained.
Sakura smiled, "That's fine. Three beans should be enough for us. We can manage this. Thank you, Hokage-sama. She referred to both Hokages, as she bowed before them once again before leaving for her mission with Hinata.
Tsunade, Hirzuen, and Shizune remained staring at the door, as the silence filled the air until raven-haired woman broke the silence.
"How long do you think when Sakura will get her power back?" asked a concern Shizune.
That was what Tsunade worried about as well. She counted on Sakura getting her power. Sakura may be only one most people needed, at least until either Naruto or Sasuke came back. Hinata may recently learned the art of Ki, but she was not ready to hold them off.
"She will come around soon, I'm sure," said Tsunade. She had a large faith in Bulma who could restore Sakura's power back to normal.
Three days ago, that day when Sakura lost her power, Bulma told them that she would check the laser gun out, and will try to figure out how to switch the gun. The laser gun was not in common language. Apparently, it was Xenonians' language. Once Bulma translated the gun, she would attend to Sakura and restore her powers right away. After all, Bulma did state that she managed to translate Saiyans' language into common language.
'Bulma, I'm counting on you to restore Sakura's power!' thought Tsunade.
Cryptology Office- With Bulma
In the room, there was a pile of boxes that sacked together around the room. Bulma was sitting next to the table, using a tool on the laser gun which was used against Sakura earlier, causing her to lose her power three days ago. But she was struggling to focus on decoying the alien language of Xenonian because light blonde ponytail hair with swirl-tinted glasses girl fangirled over Shikamaru.
If no one there to shut her up, she would do it herself. In few seconds, that is. Bulma was not pleased by the company of Shiho. She was only one that has very much of knowledge of technology on this planet. Most Elementians have really no knowledge of technology since they don't have very much advance technology here on this planet. So what's the point of receiving the help from Shiho if that blonde idiot wasn't going to do anything when she was pay attention to Shikamaru too much?
At some point, Shiho tried to help Bulma, but she could not understand the technology, neither was Xenonian's language, but she did not give up, so she asked Shikamaru to come by and help her. But when he came, she started talking too much, even though she was working on decoding it.
She heard Shikamaru muttering "troublesome" when Shiho asked what he thought of her. Bulma snickered at that word. He always thought women were troublesome, no matter who they are. Shiho, in no chance, would get him at all!
"Wait a minute!" Shiho exclaimed.
Bulma sighed. She was wondering what's up with Shiho this time? Instead of checking out, she continued to work on decoding the language.
"I think I finally figure out." Shiho said, reading the scroll. "Bulma, Shikamaru! Take a look at this." She placed the open scroll on the desk.
With a sigh, Bulma got off the chair and proceeded to them. But when she read the scroll, there was Xenonian language that she could not understand. Shikamaru and she already tried to figure out but it was impossible. She had no idea what Shiho figured out. But this looked like a letter, but with alien language. It was so complex language that Bulma couldn't even understand.
"So common courtesy on a letter would be 'Dear' before writing letter right?" Shiho asked, pointing out at the letter. Bulma and Shikamaru nodded. "So I can assume that liebe means dear. This General Adel guy is just a name."
Bulma frowned at that name. 'For some reason, I have a feeling that we're going to meet this General Adel guy someday.'
Shikamaru smiled. "Good catch, Shiho." Shiho suddenly blushed at his comment, and was already flattered. "But we do not have a time to translate everything from it. So that's only thing we need to translate is the word on the top of that laser gun."
"Right. So… blah, blah, blah…Herrn Coola. Hmm… Could herrn be also name or a word?" wondered Shiho.
"I doubt that's the name. But I do recall that most soldiers called his brother 'Lord Freeza' or 'Freeza-sama'. Herrn could be translated to lord. But we can't be sure that's only word for 'herrn'. That could be many different words for it," explained Bulma.
"You're right. Every language have their set of grammar rules, and various meaning of each word. It's so troublesome," sighed Shikamaru lazily.
The truth is, he did not want to work too much. It was too tiring. He wanted to relax and watch clouds all days. Actually, he wanted to sleep until noon. But his Mom woke him up, saying that his girlfriend was here. He recalled not having a girlfriend and went to check up, and it turned out to be Shiho. Obviously, she flattered over him all days and nights.
He first met her when she needed his help with something. He was able to help her that quickly. That day when she started to flatter over him. That was so troublesome.
All women were so troublesome, even his Mom. In his whole life, he never understood women and would never either.
Now, he had to work with two troublesome women. Bulma told Shiho to shut up so she could focus on that gadget called 'laser gun' few times. He never heard of a gun before. There's no gun on this planet.
If he could be granted a wish, he would have wished for off-day every day. So that way he did not have to work so hard, and he did not have to deal with people. That way he could sleep more, and he could watch clouds all days. He liked being lazy. Even Mom asked him to simply bring a cup of water, it was too much work of him to do. Everything was so troublesome.
Maybe Dragon Balls should do a trick, if he ever saw one. But he wouldn't do such a thing. Dragon Balls were mostly for greedy people. So he'd leave up to Bulma's use of Dragon Balls for a future. In case of death in future.
Shiho rapidly nodded few times before continuing with the letter. "Okay, that means lord then. I see Konohagakure right there on the letter. Oh, and she also mentioned Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura. And Akame and Kirito. That's bad guys we fought three days ago. Oh, Hokage, and Konoha there, too! Sergeant Rukia. That's one you fought right, Shikamaru?"
Shikamaru recalled life or death chess battle against Rukia. He should not be surprised that she was among the soldier rank. 'Sergeant' sounded like a soldier rank, unlike ninja rank.
"Wait? Sergeant Rukia?!" Bulma was only one that actually surprised in this group. "With age like that? Even a kid can enroll into soldier? On Earth, we wouldn't allow kids to join army!"
Shikamaru yawned lazily, as he stretched his arms. He hoped that Bulma would finish so he could nap soon. "I am not surprised. Most ninjas graduated academy at the age of 11 or 12 nowadays. They also became a ninja at that age. Naruto and others, even me became a ninja at the age of 12. Besides, you did say that Goku fought a lot of people since he was 13."
Bulma ruffled her own hair and let down with a big sigh. "I know. But that's just not right. They sent young children to their death without seeing the future. Earth doesn't revolve about the combat every day, I guess."
"Hey, Bulma. Can you go grab the gun and turn on?" asked Shiho politely while scanning the last paragraph of the letter.
At first Bulma was confused a little, but then she understood what Shiho wanted, so she grabbed a gun and turned it on.
"What does it say on the gun right now?" asked Shiho, pressing her glasses back to its proper position.
"Huh? It said NegativitätModus right here on this monitor." Bulma noticed the red color highlighted right on the word.
Shiho seemed too happy, as she was able to help Bulma at least. "Oh, look! There's Negativitätword there too!" She exclaimed, pointing out at Negativität Modusin the last paragraph of the letter. "Oh, and Positivität Modus!"
Bulma immediately switched on the side of the gun, as small monitor on top of gun rolled up. It now said Positivitätwith green colored word. "Wait. I'm not sure if you both have same ideas as me but do you know what they both mean right?"
Shikamaru placed his index finger on bottom of his nose, contemplating on this. "I believe they're translating into Positivity Mode and Negativity Mode."
Bulma pumped her fist cheerfully. "Great! Now we know what they are. All I have to do is to switch into Positivity Mode and point out at Sakura. That should give her power back!"
"But the problem is," Shikamaru began, "how do we know which one will give Sakura her power back?"
"Huh? Negativity Mode was the last thing Rukia used on Sakura. So Positivity Mode should be able to bring her power back."
"That's the problem." Shikamaru sighed, making Bulma look so fumed. "Even if we switched to Positivity Mode, her powers may be back, but there's also risk by doing that. Are you willing to risk it?"
Shikamaru was right. Even if she was going to shoot Sakura while in Positivity Mode, it may killed her, just like she told Sakura herself before. But Sakura told her that she was willing to risk it in order to get her power back. Maybe modifying gun a little should do a trick then. But the problem is the language. That's the most difficult part of it. She assumed that they would only need to translate the last paragraph of the letter. It seemed to talk about the laser gun.
Inside Fayre's Mindscape- With Fayre
Revelation!
Fayre was unable to form a word out of his mouth, as he was left in massive shock. 'I'm also a part of Saiyan?! Or am I only a Saiyan? But I have a Sharingan, so that confirmed that I'm still a part of Elementian. No, no, no… My real Mom is Uchiha Akito! Not that Saiyan some kind of wannabe Uchiha! I will not believe that I'm also part of Saiyan! They're all barbaric types of species! It's all lies! It had to be! She's lying!'
He tried to detect her lies with his Sharingan, but there was no sign of lies in his detection. 'She's telling the truth! Wait…'He started sweating bullets, as he shook his head in attempt to detect lie again, but to no avail. 'She said she was adopted by Uchiha. So she could be resisting my detection of her lies. It had to be!'
Erize smirked. She knew what he was thinking since she was able to read his mind while in his mindscape. "I ain't lying, I'm telling you. You were told a lie in your whole life! Uchiha Stu is your Father, but Uchiha Akito is not your Mother! SHE IS NOT YOUR MOTHER! NOT BY BLOOD! I AM!"
"CUT THE CRAP! Stop bullshitting me!" Fayre was so quick to yell back at his supposedly 'Mother'. "YOU'RE NOT MY MOTHER! Stop this crap!" He violently shook his head in hoping of snapping out of his mindscape. He can't believe that!
"It's the truth." Erize spoke. "I am, in fact, your mother, Fayre. You can't deny that truth. You've seen my truth with your Sharingan. You know that. Why do you think you have your bloodlust for fighting? You love fighting, don't you?"
Fayre widened his eyes.
"And every time you were offered for a help, you turned them down because you wanted to fight them on your own. For example, Paradox offered to help you, but you turned him down on two separate occasion because you wanted to fight Deidara and Gai alone respectively. And not to mention that you get stronger every time you were drawn to near-death. Have you once wonder why? That's right! That's because you have a part of Saiyan blood in you!" She poked his chest a little hard. "Again, I AM YOUR MOTHER!"
That was big surprise for Fayre, but he did not like this a bit. He did not like the idea of Saiyan being his Mother. He always loved his Mom. The Mother he was always raised by… He always looked up to her rather than Dad. He used to love Dad, but until he brutally murdered Mom.
But what he did not understand is that Mom hid the truth from him. So why? He understood why Dad hid the truth from him, but Mom? And Obito…
Suddenly, he realized it. "Wait… Did Nii-san… Did he know?"
"Of course." Erize folded her arms and was captivated by her past memory. "Obito knew it, but also hid the truth from you because of Hokage. The top secret is that no one can know that you're half-alien and that you're my son, so he was forced to keep the secret.
"One night, I went to a bar. I gazed upon one man, and he was very drunk. Uchiha Stu, his name was. I knew him and he knew me. He had a son. Uchiha Obito. He's all Dad talked about. 'My boy is going to academy,' he said, 'I'll make him to be prodigy. He will be Rookie of the Year student.' Heh, he had a big hope for him. So we had some talk and drink a lot. Being a Saiyan, I couldn't get a drunk from a mere alcoholic, so I stayed, drinking more. But at that time, I didn't know I was a Saiyan. Always thought an Elementian being myself.
"But Stu was very drunk. I had to help him, but his home was too far, so I carried him to my apartment. But somehow, he had some lust for me. I was tempted, and I couldn't resist, so I went along with him. Slept with him."
Fayre widened his eyes. He knew what that meant. That's how it started.
Erize chuckled amusingly. "That moment I knew I screwed up. I made a biggest mistake of my life. Fucked him while he was married to a woman. He was getting yelled by a lot. I could even hear a mile away from his home. But for some reason, I regretted nothing. I loved every moment of it."
She licked her own mouth with her lips. It was a creepy. That even made Fayre goosebumps. He never thought his real Mother was a yandere. That's why he would rather Akito as his Mother over Erize as his Mother. Biologically or not, he would not call her a Mother simply because she was his real Mom. If anything, he would only call her 'Erize' from on now.
That moment when he disliked her. He knew she was insane woman the moment he met her.
"In fact, I was overjoy when Akito was fighting with him because he cheated on her. Every night, I stalked him to his house. So I thought why not? I only wanted something out of him, so I broke in his house one night. Tried to kill Akito that night. But Stu stopped me and kissed me and soothe me in front of that bitch. I really loved every second of it. Oh, how I loved the look on Akito's face. She was so furious. But what is the most humiliation is that Stu said he would sleep with me tonight if I would leave his house. I complied, but I'll never forget that that wretch bitch was so mad! She kicked him out for a week, but I'm grateful for that. I was able to sleep with him in my apartment for a week. Haha, that wretch bitch!"
"SHUT UP!" screamed Fayre. He started to get annoyed by her calling her Mom like that. "I'd be appreciated if you stop calling my Mom like that, Erize!"
Erize was not fazed by his outburst. Instead, she looked down on him with disappointment. "I told you I'm your Mother. She's not your Mother. I don't care if you don't like how I'm calling Akito. She's wretched bitch, nothing more. She's been hiding her feeling towards you since the day you were born! You were oblivious to the fact that she hated you your whole life! Because she knew you are MY son!"
Fayre was shocked by her comment, but he recovered that fast. He talked back at her. "SHUT UP! I don't care your nonsense hatred for my Mom, but I will always love her no matter what, even if she hated me my whole life! She raised me better than you ever will and treated me better than you are to me right now! At this point, I no longer care how you came to this planet and why or how you were sealed in me! Killing Kakashi is all I cared about, and that masked bastard, too! So do not interfere with my plan, Saiyan!"
He turned around, attempting to leave his mindscape, but Erize stopped him by placing her hand on his shoulder firmly.
"Instead of killing Kakashi alone, you should destroy this planet," said Erize darkly.
He froze. Wait, did she just suggest him to destroy the planet? Then he suddenly recalled by the event of him meeting Coola 15 years ago!
"I will destroy your planet if you refused to join the organization." Coola threatened him.
He wondered how many times he was threatened by destroying the planet. Few times, but it was still annoying. First Coola, then Freeza, and now this Saiyan?! Not only them, he was threatened by few more people. Really, it was getting more annoying! He wished they all would leave Element alone.
Finally, he had it enough. He snapped, as he swatted her hand off and turned out to punch her down to the ground. She looked up, not shock, but in furious at him.
"You punched me?!" growled Erize.
Fayre let his hair hung down, shadowing his eyes, as he breathed few times before calming down. "Yeah… I did. I punched you. So what? What're you gonna do when I punched you?" He titled his head up a little, revealing his Mangekyou Sharingan eyes.
Erize wiped the blood off her mouth, scowling at Fayre. "So you punched me because I suggested you to destroy the planet?!"
"Yeah, you got it right. I'll kill everyone who threatened to destroy my planet. You are one of them. Too bad, I can't kill you in my mindscape, so you should be grateful for that." Fayre said coldly. "Also, you've been living inside me for long times, so I'm sure you know why I don't want to kill everyone because of my hatred. I will not spread hatred myself just because you told me the story. Even though I'm half-Saiyan, I will not stop loving Mom and Nii-san. So killing Kakashi, that masked bastard, and Coola are only on my mind right now. Don't try to make me add you on my kill list!"
Erize scoffed.
Fayre ignored her, as he stared at his fist and continued. "I don't want to kill everyone… I killed them only if I have to. Sure enough, I've killed so many people to this day. I will kill more in future, but it doesn't mean I love killing people. I left this planet to protect this one. That's why I faked my death. By faking my death, I forced Kakashi to kill me right before I left the planet, so I won't become missing-nin that way."
He clenched his fist and dejected. "Dammit… I thought I left this planet to protect it from Coola. But Naruto made it worst by mocking Freeza, which caused the war between Coola and Element! So Coola forced me to come along with him, only because I knew the map on Element. But I had to keep secret the fact that Naruto was from Konoha. But what I didn't realize is that I caused more death by not telling him. Every day I regretted causing them to dead. I had to kill few Elementians, only to prove my fake loyalty to Coola."
He opened his palm. He noticed that his hand was trembling a little. "I know I'll have to kill more Elementians. But I'll promise when that day I kill Kakashi, I will kill Coola. After that, I will go to Earth to gather all seven Dragon Balls to bring all Elementians back to life with the exception of Kakashi, Itachi, and that masked bastard!" He looked at her again. "Do you understand? I'll never destroy Element! It's my home!"
Erize looked at him with disgusting face. She could not understand why he chose to protect Element when it's the one that made him living a hell. She would want to destroy Element because of that certain incident. That incident made her go mad and tried to destroy Konoha, but failed miserably.
With a sigh, he turned around, but did not walk away because he knew Erize was going to say something.
"I see…" She started looking at him with cold eyes. "Then do you know why I'm sealed inside you right now?"
Fayre could have walked away and faded back into reality, but he stayed for some reason. Maybe he wanted to know why she's sealed into him, even though he stated he no longer wanted to know why as soon as she called a bad name on her Mom.
She cuddled her knees closer to her chest. "When I was a rookie, I was trained by my old master to learn the art of Ki. I never knew where he hailed from, but he apparently knew how to use Ki. He said I could have gotten stronger if I want to protect Konoha, and strangely Element, so I did. I trained harder every day in order to get much stronger. But after I mastered Ki, I've never seen him again. It's like he disappeared from the face of this planet. But I was not worried because he told me that I may never see him again.
"Then you know how the story goes with Stu. So when I finally gave a birth to my little baby, it was little cute baby with black spiky hair and no tail. I was so happy that I have a kid of my own, even though I knew Stu cheated on that stupid bitch.
"But three months later, I went on mission with that bitch and few others. That day, we were endangered by the enemy. That enemy was too strong. It was impossible to land a single hit on him. When I saw enemy coming after Akito, it would have been perfect opportunity for me to let her die, but I realized that it was wrong thing to do, so I decided to save her. By saving her, I revealed my Ki power for very first time. I threw that Ki at him, and he was obliterated completely. That's when she was so terrified of me because of what she just saw what I did to an enemy. We came back to Konoha and reported on latest mission.
"So that night, I went to sleep. But I was attacked! Someone tried to kill me, so I had to defend myself! I tried to look at their face, but I couldn't. It was too dark. When I thought of citizen of Konoha, I took the baby and left it in order to protect them. I lured them away from Konoha. That's when I started using Ki, I obliterated few of them. Then I realized that I wasn't attacked by an enemy! It was Sandaime Hokage, Danzo, couples of Uchihas, few teammates I went with in my latest mission, bunch of ANUBs and… Akito! I stole a glance at her. It's almost as if she sported a victory smirk. It seemed like she wanted to get rid of me! She used my power as an excuse to get rid of me! That ungrateful wretch claimed that I was too dangerous to live here, so I must be killed! Even worse, Hokage and others agreed with him. They went after me, so I snapped.
"There was full moon that night, so all I had to do was to stare at full moon. I turned into Great Ape and started attacking them. My original plan was to destroy Konoha, but they held me back. I killed a couple of them and nearly killed Akito. But they knew my weakness. Saiyan's weakness. They cut my tail off to shrink me back to normal. Having my tail cut off recently, it has weakened me, but I was still able to fend them off. I came this close to my victory until an alien called himself a Galactic Patrolman who was on mission to get rid of unregistered alien on any planet. I was unregistered alien here on this planet, so he came to stop me. We fought evenly. He said he could have killed me easily, but he chose not to. Instead, he arrested me by sealing me inside your stomach. You just happened to be here during that fight, so it was perfect opportunity for him to seal me into you."
Fayre listened to her whole story, but he did not show any glimpse of sympathy towards her. He chose to remain silent. That was not what she hoped.
"Now do you understand? This woman you called Mom didn't want me to raise you. She wanted to kill me for having that power. It wasn't crime to have that power, isn't it? In fact, I was planning to use that power to protect Konoha, even Element, but your stupid wretch Mom had to ruin my life!" She spat angrily. "At that point, I stopped caring about Konoha. They're the worse! Elementians are always ungrateful for everything. If they see too powerful people, they will kill them on spot. So since I was sealed inside you, I learned everything and that the fact I am a Saiyan. I learned that my original home world was destroyed years ago, but I was overjoyed when I heard that news."
She laughed with a joy, "Maybe because I hated them since I learned that I'm a Saiyan, and that they sent weakling babies like me off to planets. And that very same planet they sent me to make my life so miserable.
"I always watched you inside you your whole life. I'm stuck inside here for 25 years. There's a reason why I chose not to speak to you until now. I can't tell you why, but I can say one thing. You're going to regret when you committed to protect Element, even Konoha. That's things when it will get worse, as it ensues problems more than it should have been. I'm not going to force you, because that's the pointless. You're as stubborn as stone. So let me ask you this: Which side will you choose? After you killed Kakashi. Which one will you choose? Planet Trade Organization or Element? Think about it. Choose wisely… or… you may regret it later."
Fayre gave out a big sigh, which it would be bigger sigh in his whole life. He gave her a nasty attitude, showing that he did not like her a bit, even though she was his real Mother. "Are you done?" He asked coldly.
"What?!" Erize asked with a mix of little bit of shock and very angry.
"I asked you if you're done." Fayre repeated, while still facing his back towards her. "Good. It seemed that you're done. I'm growing tired of your ranting. Now there's something I have to take care of. Killing that masked bastard, I mean."
Erize glared at his back, as she started to feel her blood boiling. She never understood why he kept giving her an attitude. Does this guy have a respect for his Mom? Real Mom? He kept talking back to her, so she would have to teach him a lesson. A manner to respect Mother! She was going to make a move, but Fayre spoke up for last time.
"Erize…" Fayre began. "… I assume you'd want to get out of here, so I'll figure out how to get you out, so that's way you won't be nuisance to me for rests of my life. But when you get out, I want you to leave me and Element alone, and never come back. Got it?"
Without allowing her to say something, he disappeared out of thin air, seemingly returned to the real world again.
Erize suddenly turned her mouth into evil grin. 'All it takes this long conversation to have him to decide to free me without actually convincing him to do so. Sorry, Fayre-kun. But in order to free me, there's one way to free me is…'
She softly whispered to herself without relaying to his mind. "…death."
Forest, Real World- With Fayre
Black kept opening and closing and back and forth. Every time it opened, there was a blue sky along with the forest, but that was only a glimpse of them. It took for a while, but then it finally opened fully.
Fayre found himself sitting against the tree. After he looked down, he noticed Itachi laying on the floor along with the pound of bloods.
He remembered right before he fell into unconscious, he saw the masked man who stabbed Itachi from the behind. He wondered why that masked man would do to his own group. What was he planning?
He tried to get up, but the wound on his chest held him down. He groaned in a little pain. 'Damn! That hurts! Judging by this look, Itachi was never intended for my vital point. He could have killed me, but why didn't he kill me? And come to think of it, he put too much trust in me, but why?!'
"Welcome back." Fayre was startled by a sudden voice, as he looked up towards a tree in front of him. He narrowed his eyes, as he found Tobi sitting on a top of branch.
Danzo's Root Base- Konohagakure
Sakura and Hinata managed to sneak into the base, and took upon high pipe where the view of long bridge can be seen from them. They carefully watched few patrols between the bridges. Under the bridge, there was very deep hole, where the floor cannot be seen. Almost like bottomless pit.
Their mission were to infuriate the base and bring Danzo back to Hokage. That means they must not kill him no matter what. That's something they have to be cautious about. Actually, that was what Sakura worried about Hinata. She wanted to kill Danzo, but because of Hokage's order, she had to control herself. But Hinata also wanted to kill Danzo because of what he did to her Mom and Hanabi.
"Hinata-sama…" Sakura said. From on now, Sakura would call her that in respect of her status. Regarding her current relationship with her, Sakura started calling her 'Hinata-sama', and Hinata still called her 'Sakura-san'. They respected each other since three days ago. They're friends right now. They put their 'Naruto-kun' issue aside and focus on the main issue. Danzo and Coola were the issue here right now.
"Yeah?" Hinata responded. She'd use her Byakugan to search for Danzo. He had to be hiding somewhere there. No one should screw with her family. He killed her Mom and sister. She knew that she could not bring her Mom back to life because she had been dead for more than a year. But what saddened her is that she could not bring Hanabi back to life because she was not killed by Coola's men. So she'd make sure that she was the one who killed Danzo, so that way he cannot be brought back to life. Not by Coola or his men ever!
"Listen, Hinata-sama. I know you hate him as much as I do, but we both know we must not kill him."
"What?! No way! Not chance in a hell! He killed my Mom and sister! And I can't bring them both back to life! Neither is your parents!"
"That's Hokage order!"
"I don't care! He don't deserve to stay alive! Besides, if we beat him up until he's unconscious and bring him to Hokage. There's high chance he'll escape! I just know it. So if he escapes, then what? We can't go on mission to find him when our planet is in perilous!"
Sakura frowned. She'd hate herself for bringing that subject up again, but she had to do. There may be little argument when she was about to bring it up again.
"So you think this is what Naruto wanted us to do? I mean, what he would think of us when he finds out that we were killing Danzo with no remorse?" asked Sakura calmly.
"I thought we already dropped this subject three days ago!"
"Hinata-sama…" Sakura frowned again.
"Oh, Kami. I always thought your obsession with Naruto-kun couldn't be worse than mine." Hinata remarked sarcastically. "All right. You've convinced me, Princess Sakura-sama. For Prince Naruto-sama's sake, I will not kill the root of all evils, no pun intended!"
Sakura looked at her and smiled. "Thank you, my shiny knight!" She went on a joke along with Hinata. They both laughed together. It was good time. Just as she thought, there was little argument.
It's been a long since she last saw Hinata laughing. Hinata did not smile even single one or laugh since Neji, her sister, and her Dad died.
"However…" Hinata began, still scanning the area for Danzo. "Indeed, Hokage ordered us to bring Danzo back alive, but she never said anything about his underlings! With that said, I've found Danzo! Killing time!"
Hinata jumped straight down towards a clueless Root member who stood next to other three Roots.
"Wait! I said no killing!" Sakura cried, also jumped straight down towards another clueless Root member.
Hinata jumped on top of Root and pinned him down to the ground before plunging her kunai into the side of his neck. Bloods spewed upon her from his neck. He writhed in agony almost as if he had seizure, and finally croaked off.
Before other one could do anything, Sakura also jumped down on him and silt his throat with her kunai. At least, bloods did not spew out at her. Instead, bloods fell onto the floor.
Two remaining Roots made a quick move onward Sakura, but was killed by Hinata very quickly. Hinata used Juken (Gentle Fist) on both guys' heart precisely.
Hinata stood up, wiping off the blood from her face, smiling. "That was easy."
Sakura returned her kunai into her pouch and sighed with a little annoyance. "I said no killing."
Hinata looked around and smirked proudly at Sakura. "Oh, what about you? You killed that guy, didn't you?"
Sakura's cheeks reddened, as she just embarrassed herself. She just told her no killing, yet she killed him. 'Ninja's instinct, I supposed.'She chuckled nervously. "Okay, all right. Naruto-kun doesn't need to know about this one. They're nobodies after all. Deal?"
Hinata laughed, "Then deal!"
Sakura and Hinata high-fived each other and laughed together, as if they were the best teammates ever!
Their laughter halted when more Root members appeared and surrounded them. They had to take into their fighting stance. So many Root members around them! A number of Root members were too many, even for them to take them on. There must be about 200 Root members that surrounded them! They already exposed themselves to them, and now even Danzo knew about them. They realized they were trapped here.
"Oh, crap!" panicked Sakura.
Hinata panicked a little, but then she remembered what he had right now, then she smiled a little. "Looks like this is good time to test my new power here, Sakura!"
Hokage's Mansion- With Tsunade
"It's been a month since Sakura and her team got here. In three days, Coola should be here, attacking us. But it will be good time to evacuate citizen today, so that way they won't be harm." Godaime Hokage said as she spoke to Sandaime Hokage who sat on a soft chair facing her desk.
"We haven't receive any paperwork recently. I assume they already had been killed off, and we're only survivor here right now. I'd suggest to bring Naruto and Sauske back right now for safety," suggested Hirzuen.
Tsunade shook her head, frowning. "I can't. I have no way of contact them right now. Naruto's training in Mt. Myoboku and I have no clue where Sasuke is at right now. I can only hope that something bad won't happen today. Sakura is only one we're relying on, and Hinata is her back-up until Naruto and Sasuke come back."
Shizune reached down to her. "May I remind you that you won few gambling last night? Do you know what that means when it's very unusual for you to win gambling?"
Tsunade scoffed sarcastically, "I guess last night was just my lucky night. I'd be surprised if Coola's outside by my gate right no—"
Suddenly, door busted open, as Kuririn and Gohan barged in. They panted hyperventilation, and looked alerted now.
"What's wrong?!" asked a concerned Tsunade.
"You have to evacuate citizens right now!" warned Gohan.
"What?!"
"They're coming! They're flying on way, as we're speaking right now! It's Coola and his men! They could be here anytime soon!" explained Kuririn.
"WHAT?!" cried Tsunade and Shizune, while Hirzuen remained calm.
While he looked calm, he was actually nervous. This was not the first time he met an alien, or fought a powerful alien.
Shizune shot Tsunade an I-told-you-so look.
Tsunade gulped nervously. She can't believe Coola and his men chose this day to attack. "All—" Once again, she was trailed off when a couple of ANBU suddenly appeared in front of her and kneeled before her.
"Coola and others are here by the gate! What should we do?" stated one of ANBU. Kuririn, Gohan, Tsunade, Shizune, and Hirzuen were in shock. They could tell that ANBU already were in fear.
"WHAT?!" Tsunade, Shizune, and Kuririn yelled simultaneously.
To be continued…
Naru-Kun97: Okay….I don't know where I am but….I'm surrounded by boxes….I need to get back to the real world! 0_0 Well, the good thing is that today is the story's THREE YEAR anniversary! =D
Masked Man: That worthless Beta Reader is gone and I'm betaing "Team Z"…Until next time…(Teleports away)
(Somehow, some random boy wraps here with the aid by the masked man) Masked Man: You resembled him, so you're here to replace him and tell them news of Jerry. (Random boy nods) Good. Now I'll be leaving again. (Masked man wraps away again)
Random boy: (Sighs) I apologize to announce that Jerry is dead. He died to due of too high gravity, thanks to that imbecilic Vegeta! Anyways, before you assume this is real, that's his character, not the author. Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Jerry.
Vegeta: WAIT! Your name is JERRY TOO?!
Random boy: (Grins) YEP! I'm his clone... He accidentally created me, so that's the result, but only the difference is that I have unkillable God Mode, so no one can kill me, bwahaha! Also, if you tried to do something to me, rest assured, I can kill you right away! I'm stronger than everyone, even God of Destruction Beerus! Instead of one punch, I can kill you by flickering my finger on your forehead. Until the original Jerry is back, I'll be your author. BWAHAHAHHA!
Vegeta: DAMMMMMIT! Looks like I better bring Jerry back to life soon then, so I can pick up on him again!
(Somewhere by Check-In Station)
Me: (Opens eye, and see Check-In Station. Then I realize) NOOOOOOO! I AM DEAD! (Runs around) NO, NO, NO! Why am I dead? Damn that stupid Vegeta! He killed me!
Dead Guide: Stays in line! No cut!
Me: SORRY, SORRY! Shit, shit, shit! I forgot to delete my browser history! NOOOOOOOOOOO!
A/N: Anyways, what do you think of this chapter? That Fayre is actually half-Elementian/Saiyan, and what do you think of Erize? How will Fayre face Tobi with his "untouchable" ability? How can Sakura and Hinata get out of this situation when they're surrounded by a bunch of Root members? What's Tsunade's planning when Coola and his men are already there by the gate? What will they do in this situation? Finds out next time on Team Z!
Also, I would like to announce that this is three-years anniversary since the publish of my story Team Z. It published on November 1, 2012, so this would be my fourth year of writing Team Z, starting today.
I know that I'm writing very slow. What I noticed is that I wrote from chapter 1 to Chapter 73. It took 73 chapters in one year. Then 74-94 chapters. It took 20 chapters in a year. And now... 95-105... It took 10 chapters in a year.
I think I know why, and that's why I'm trying to speed up my pace. I'm planning to write more than 20 chapters in a year. But the problem is... Fallout 4 is coming, so I can distract away from this story once again! :( So tell me what I can do to avoid writing another 10 chapters in a year?
By the way, Konoha Invasion is coming! It starts next chapter! They will begin attacking on Konoha next chapter! So I hope it's going to be very exciting! :D
In fact, I planned to do a long flashback, but I changed my mind. I don't want to waste your time with nonsense flashback, so I cut this short by having Erize to narrative her short story. So I summarized it. :D
Any question? Please ask right away! And please review, so I can have a better effort, and will speed my pace up! Come and review! It would be helpful. :D
Now, I think I talk too much. I know you want to read another story, so I will stop here and say goodbye! See you in next chapter! :D
