Pyr00tje: Hehe, Reunion times will have to wait for a bit now…
:D: No worries! I hope you'll enjoy this chapter as well!
Per: Be careful what you wish for… though the chances of Itachi and Sasuke actually working together are really really small… Especially if you want to make it believable.
Licht Sieger: Uhmm, thanks for the review! I hope you don't get mad if you read on, but it's a war, and all allies that can be received will be needed in a war…
Curlsofserentiy: Thanks! I hope it remains good as well…
Jczavala: ^_^ WOW! You actually think so? Well, thanks!! Here's the next Chappie!
SilverKnight7: Well, you'll have to wait a little bit longer ^_^, or maybe not, hehe… Read and find out!
DocDragon: Surprise, surprise! Uhhmm, well a little surprising perhaps… Oh, and about Hiraga, yeah please send it to me!
Perverted-senin: Thanks for the review!! I hope you like this chapter as well!
Misu no Hikaru: Hehe, yeah I did keep most Leaf-nins from meeting Naruto, but that was on purpose… *bows with a grin on his face*

Anonymous: The best?! You think so? Thanks so much!! Here's the update!
Zsych: Yes, Lee probably does have a high amount of Chakra… I'll correct that. But his fast movements alone cost him a lot of Chakra. Imagine how much Chakra he uses for the speed he has now… All those push-ups and what not, are for the building up of speed and power… I think. And about summons, well, I just thought that most summons are superior in most departments, compared to humans.
New user of the Rasengan: Please don't kill me! Here's the next update! Thanks for the (threatening) Review!! ^_^
Magicalfoci: My god, you're actually comparing the manga/anime and my fanfiction? And you're positive about it too?! Really, reviews like these help me write faster… Thank you so much for the review!

There Where When is Now
Chapter 12
Oh, how many surprises her title had given her so far. The many secrets a Hokage carried and kept from his or her own Village were now common knowledge for her. Now a member of the best Clan in her Village stood before her. He was from a Clan that will be considered extinct soon enough. His own brother had killed the entire Clan and made this one before her an Avenger. Two were left from the strongest Clan. Still, the Clan could be revived… The Hyugas were still alive, well, most of them. It seems Hyuga Dareda had paid a visit together with Itachi, strange enough. It seems the Sharingan user had a neck for destroying Konoha's best Clans.
"So… You no longer serve Orochimaru and you want to help us fight against the Akatsuki?" Tsunade yelled from on top of the towers beside the enormous Gate of Konoha.
Sasuke looked up and gazed at the Hokage. "Yes. I would like to return. I regret making the decisions I have made in the past. My allegiance lies with Konoha. Please accept me…"
Tsunade narrowed her eyes. "Who says you're not lying, Uchiha Sasuke? Perhaps this is one of Orochimaru's traps or maybe even one of your own? Tell me why should I believe you?"
Sasuke's gaze dropped to the ground. "I don't know how I can prove myself to you… I have nothing left… I can no longer grow stronger except for in this Village. The most powerful Village… I fought my brother and learned I still have to improve to beat him. But I also have to kill Orochimaru. I need to get stronger… without this Curse Seal…"
On top of the Towers beside the Gate Kakashi, Tsunade, Gai, Asuma and Jiraiya analyzed the Uchiha. "You will be watched by ANBU day and night. You will NOT, I repeat, NOT start any fight in this Village… If I hear anything bad from you, you will die… You're still considered a Missing-nin…" Tsunade paused in her tirade. ""You will be a Leaf Shinobi again… If we, you too, have defeated the Akatsuki completely."
Sasuke nodded. "I understand… Hokage-sama." Sasuke said. "Where am I to stay?"
Tsunade snorted. "Find some place to stay yourself." With that said they all left, while Tsunade was on her way to inform the ANBU to switch duties and tighten security around the Village. 'Am I doing the right thing?'
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
One minute they were all running apace towards Leaf Village and the other minute they had to slow down, for the enemies were right in front of them, waiting… Akatsuki and many of them…
Itachi, Dareda. Kisame, Mokito and Sinobi recognised a few of them. 'Aburame Turin, Doro Odei and Sukumi Tachi.' Sinobi summed up. 'The old Akatsuki members… Hatsu and Teri are with Orochimaru. Those others I don't know, never seen them either.'
"That man has dangerous Chakra around himself…" Dareda stated. "It's Chakra draining. Kind of like a Sanmai no Jutsu, only slower, but it seems it's permanent and it covers the entire area…"
Itachi narrowed his eyes at the stranger. "Yes, he is the one that took the Sand Scroll from me… Let us take it back now… His Chakra drains our Chakra and pretty fast too…" Itachi turned to Naruto and Gaara. "This fight might force you to go full out…"
Naruto and Gaara nodded with a full grin. 'It's been a while since I've done that. It's been even longer since we've done that together…' Naruto thought as he grinned at Gaara, who smiled back. 'This could be fun…'
"How about introducing yourselves?" Sinobi asked. "I'm Raidou Sinobi…"
A man and a woman stepped forward. "Takabashi Serra." The girl stated and the boy continued. "Takabashi Nakao."
"Baeda." The old woman with cloth on her eyes coughed.
"Hiraga Matsu…" The man with countless headbands introduced.
And the man whose Chakra was draining other Chakra. "Kutake Kinoko"
And then every one who was with Naruto and Itachi introduced themselves..
Aburame Turin stared at Naruto. "He's the one who carries the two Scrolls… Be careful, he's pretty good…"
"The one with the weird arm is mine…" Dareda stated as he watched beyond the cloth which was covering his arm and saw the arm cannon Matsu carried.
Itachi nodded. "I'll take Aburame Turin…"
Kisame chuckled and continued. "I'll take that foolish Wind Shinobi, Doro Odei…"
Mokito narrowed her eyes at Baeda. "I'm not taking the old woman, so I'll take Sukumi Tachi."
Neji closed his eyes and smiled. "I'll take one of those two…" He said as he watched the Takabashi siblings.
Sinobi shrugged. "Well, I'll take the old woman then…"
Gaara and Naruto stared at each other. "We'll take those who are left…"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Uchiha Sasuke trudged through his old Village and had looked for apartments to stay in for two hours now, with no luck. The Village itself had not changed in appearance. But the behaviour of the village was much more subdued now and all were more alert as well. Sasuke's eyes widened, though, as he saw two girls stand in front of him. 'Oh no…'
"Sasuke-kun…" Sakura started. "How… How are you?"
Ino Yamanaka looked uncertain as she gazed at Sasuke. "Have you returned… for good now?"
Sasuke shook his head. 'Some things never change…' He stared rather coldly at them. "Stay out of my way. I have no intention in reminiscing." He walked past them, but turned around. "Also, I do NOT have any feelings for either of you. I think it's time for you two to move on… It's been five years!" Sasuke ended turning around again, continuing his quest for an apartment. 'Five years… I had hoped for my old home to still be standing… But sadly, I was mistaken…'
"Sasuke-kun!!"
Sasuke rolled his eyes as he heard the two girls run towards him. 'Now what?!' He thought angrily as he whizzed around, his frustration showing in his movements. "What?!"
Sakura and Ino both stopped in front of him and stared at him. "You're a jerk, Sasuke-kun." Ino stated, indicating it as a fact.
Sasuke would roll his eyes, but they were starting to hurt from all the rolling from before. "Yeah, well, that really hurts me…" He mockingly replied.
"I… WE… just wanted to say, we don't like you anymore…" Ino talked for the both of them.
Sasuke turned his back to them. "Hm. Thanks." With that, he left the scene, leaving the two girl behind.
'How annoying… It's been five years and those two are still exactly the same…' Sasuke let his thoughts about the two girls fade away. 'Orochimaru… I'll kill you after all of this is over. And after that, I will kill Itachi, for I will be stronger then. And now… to look for an apartment.'
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Itachi knew how to fight the bug woman, since he knew her from the Akatsuki. Immune to physical attacks and she has techniques to drain Chakra and a dangerous summon too… Itachi smirked. When push comes to shove… Naruto, Gaara and Neji can all summon their greatest summons at once. Itachi smirked even more, since Turin was afraid to attack him.
He quickly used Kage Shuriken three times, killed three Bug Clones with it and had forced the real Turin to show, only to get a fire attack straight in the face. Itachi stepped to the side to avoid Turin's poisonous spit, which was just a diversion to allow Turin's bugs to heal her face. Itachi performed many hand seals and shot black fire around Turin so she had nowhere to escape. Itachi made the black fire embrace Turin. Turin jumped through the fire, burned as hell, only to look straight into Itachi's eyes. Turin was frozen in place…
"Do you know that the Mange Sharingan leaves many options for me to use against my opponents? One is the Tsukiyomi… which crucifies you in your own mind and leaves you open for mental and physical attacks, but ONLY for your mind… I have developed a new one… By usage of Chakra and the Mange Sharingan it is possible… You will be the second I'm going to use it on… I call it… Amaterasu…"
Itachi smiled as the effects started to kick in on Turin and explained, the others were too busy to fight to hear it anyway. "Instead of being crucified in the darkness of your own mind, where all your deepest secrets are revealed to me… You get crucified by hypnosis from my side… You're manipulated into using your own full Chakra to lift your own body up. Usually that's not enough to make a person actually float, but with a bit of my Chakra, you're crucified outside of your mind… right here…" Itachi said as Turin floated in the air and had her arms spread to the side and her legs over one another, like being crucified.
Itachi grinned. "You will die… You won't be able to move and you're completely in my control…" Itachi deactivated his Sharingan. "Even when I deactivate my Sharingan…" Then he grabbed several Kunais and began slashing at Turins body, careful not to touch her physically. Turin's screams were horrifying… while she was unable to move away…
Not too far away, Dareda was easily dodging Matsu's arm cannon bullets and had already noticed the poison within them. Then again, Dareda could simply release Chakra from his own points to avoid getting hit by the bullets, but he didn't feel like wasting Chakra for that as he slowly advanced towards the shooting Hiraga. Dareda stopped advancing as Hiraga stopped shooting. With his Byakugan he saw that Hiraga's blood was the fuel for the Cannon. 'A Book?'
Hiraga revealed a book in his hands and started looking through it. Dareda frowned, feeling ridiculed. He started spinning like crazy and blew Hiraga away. As Hiraga floated in the air, gritting his teeth to avoid screaming in pain, he performed hand seals. Dareda was unfamiliar with the Jutsu.
"Kage Henkei!!"
Dareda's eyes widened at the creature floating in the air. Dareda closed his and shook his head and opened his eyes again. 'No, it's really true… What the hell is that?!'
The creature was still flailing around towards the ground, his wings seemed to be useless for flying. As it fell hard, it also disappeared with a puff of smoke, which made Dareda frown even more. 'What? So one damaging hit will make it change back to him? Kinda like Kage Bunshins then…' Dareda thought.
Hiraga cursed loudly. "Damn it!! My drawing had an error… The wings weren't finished yet! Shit! Time to do another…" He said as he grabbed his little book with drawings again and did the seals again. Dareda simply let him.
"Kage Henkei!!"
Dareda shook his head. "Strange, really… To use a technique like that against someone who already knows how to defeat it. A Shadow Transformation only takes one hit. I am a Byakugan user who is specialised in delivering hits to my enemy… or to put it differently… You don't stand a chance…"
The monster before him in which Hiraga had transformed in didn't seem to react and simply charged forward.
'Foolish…' Dareda thought as he quickly activated his Byakugan to see where he would attack and where the openings would be… 'There!'
With simple movements to the left he dodged two vicious slashed and hit the gigantic leg once, making the huge creature turn back into Hiraga.
"I told you, why won't you believe me?" Dareda stated and smirked, but then sighed. "I'm the worst opponent for you… Senshin-Byakugan!!" Dareda analyzed every little thing about Hiraga and also observed all drawings in Hiraga's sketch book. "Now I have found a way to beat you instantly… but I'm hesitant, because it's too easy…"
'A lot of power is needed to even make him feel my impacts on his body… I already knew this when I chose him as my enemy.' Mokito glanced at the other fighters as she still kept up her guard. 'Everyone seems to be intent on finishing this as fast as possible. Itachi has almost killed his opponent already…'
Suddenly the ground around her and beneath her crumbled. 'Bunshin?' Five Clones of Stone jumped out of the ground, while Mokito had already left her previous spot with high speed. 'These Bunshins also need to inflict a lot of damage…'
And with great speed, Mokito began her pounding on the Clones, while the real Sukumi performed new hand seals. "Doton, Tsuchi Kaijou Toujyou!!"
As Mokito had pummelled the last Clone to debris, she observed how four weird looking creatures were slowly ascending from the ground. From the looks of it, they were consistent only of mud and stone. Kind of like the clones she had just beaten.
Sukumi chuckled. "Your speed has always been too high for any of us. But this skill will keep you busy long enough for me to defeat you."
And the creatures mindlessly started attacking Mokito, who easily dodged all attacks.
Up until now, Neji had easily seen through all the attacks the boy was throwing at him. 'Hmph, seems like I'm this guy worst opponent, he hadn't even landed one hit on me and he's already panting…' Suddenly, Nakao Takabashi, smirked as his pupil slightly changed yellow and the veins in his eyes, which are usually red, were now slightly gold… Neji frowned. 'Bloodline Limit?'
Nakao laughed at Neji. "I'm your opponent, you can call me… Saber…"
Neji stared at Nakao unfazed. 'Saber?'
Suddenly, Nakao was above Neji and was quickly descending towards him. "Zaneiken!!"
Neji jumped away and watched as Nakao's fist dug a hole in the ground where he just stood. His Byakugan observed how the damage in the ground expanded towards him. 'What…?! Shadows?!' Shadows were approaching him from where Nakao stood.
Nakao rose to his feet and his features indicated insanity as he stared at Neji. "These Shadows will tear you apart by a single touch…"
'I don't think Kaiten will work against this. The shadows are still coming at me and spreading like hell… What to do?' Neji thought and quickly jumped to safety as the shadows reached him. 'On top of that, that guy is standing in the middle of these shadows. I can't get close to him. But he doesn't have a keen eye, ear or nose, so… Taiyuu Bunshin!!'
Neji hid himself and let his clone distract Nakao, while he prepared the Sanmai no Jutsu…
"Suiton, Hanrai Suigai!!" Kisame yelled and launched a gigantic tidal wave at Doro Odei, who in turn, performed difficult hand seals, probably to defend.
"Kuchiyose no Jutsu!!" A gigantic Hawk appeared with Doro on his head. The Hawk totally caught the huge Tidal Wave, but was immensely damaged by it. It seemed Doro didn't have another way to defend the attack.
"Oushu, are you okay?" Doro asked the Hawk. "Can you still fly?'
The hawk nodded its head and stared at Kisame, who had just ended a new set of hand seals. "Kuchiyose no Jutsu!"
A huge turtle appeared, with Kisame on its head. "Let's end this quickly, Shougakke! Oushu is already heavily damaged..' Kisame stated. 'I have to end this quickly, my previous attack almost drained all of my Chakra… When I'm out of Chakra, all I can use is Itsuha Chakra no Katana… But when I have to use all of it… I won't survive…'
Gaara was not having a lot of fun. This Spore guy was definitely something else… His attacks had little to no effect, but Gaara could feel his own Chakra quickly dropping. As he observed the others, he saw the same symptoms. 'This is not going well… I have to kill this guy as fast as I can… So far his attacks did not get past my Armor of Sand… '
"Kirimaku!!" Kinoko suddenly yelled out. Gaara was surprised he didn't have to do hand seals to perform the attack.
Gaara watched as Spores were all around him. 'I'm getting nauseous… and my Chakra is getting drained at a higher rate… Not good…' Gaara narrowed his eyes and growled. 'It seems I have to use Shukaku now…'
Kinoko, so far not showing any emotion at Gaara, be it pride, disappointment or fear, now showed surprise as he watched Gaara release Chakra from the inside. 'That should not be possible…'
Gaara smirked evilly and disappeared from view. Kinoko looked all around him and was suddenly hit by a massive amount of sand. Kinoko quickly jumped to his feet. "Meihoushi!!"
Gaara appeared several feet in front of Kinoko and narrowed his eyes. "Suna Shuriken Sukasshu!!"
Kinoko let the Sand Shurikens approach him and calmly watched them all dissipate into nothing. Gaara slightly snarled as he saw his attack fail in its mission. He continued with a new set of seals. As he finished the seals, he glared at Kinoko. "Now you will die… Shukaku Kai…"
Both Naruto and Gaara had found a way to let a lot of their demons' Chakra come out and be controlled by themselves. The first stage was a simple surge of Chakra, the second stage was a transformation, but they would still be completely their selves… Gaara now had Shukaku's tail, arms and legs, but Gaara did not grow in size at all.
"Die!! Fuuton Renkuudan!!"
Kinoko quickly jumped out of the way, to avoid the destructive wind blast that came his way. 'This guy has a lot of Chakra in him… These people are all very skilled. All of them should already have been out cold. I've fought that guy before…' Kinoko thought as he stared at Itachi, who was panting, and was finishing off with Aburame Turin. 'He was also difficult to fight… But this guy…' He looked back at the transformed Gaara. 'is even more complicated…'
Naruto was having fun with his opponent. She was really skilled and they had pummelled each other pretty bad already. But from the looks of it, Naruto had the upper hand. "Come on! Rasengan!!" Serra jumped to avoid the huge spiral. "Rasengan!!" Serra barely dodged the second and appeared behind Naruto, who in turn, disappeared and yelled from above: "Karm no Jutsu!!"
Serra watched as a huge beam was shot from Naruto's hands. She easily sidestepped the beam and waited for it to make its impact on the ground. She was surprised to see, the beam divide into four other beams, all directed at her. Serra's eyes widened and she ran as fast as she could… 'This guy is really good… So far he has easily dealt with all of my attacks… Any normal person would be lying on the ground, hoping to survive now… But this guy looks like he didn't even feel my attacks…'
The Karm no Jutsu dissipated and Serra stared at Naruto. 'Looks like I have to go all out now…' Serra closed her eyes and re-opened them, to reveal red irises.
Naruto looked a little better and didn't do anything just yet. 'Sharingan? But that can't be…'
"I call this my Ember-state… There is no way you can win now…"
Naruto grinned. "Is that so? Kyoubou Bunshin!!"
Naruto's Kyuubi Clones rushed forward, only to be ruthlessly slashed in half by Serra's hands, which were surrounded by Chakra. Naruto narrowed his eyes. 'Damn, I didn't think anyone could rip these clones of mine that easily apart… Looks like this one's a real challenge… However…' Naruto grinned and immediately made Kyuubi Chakra come out.
Serra looked surprised to see red Chakra surround Naruto's body. "I call this my… Kyoubou-State…"
And then Serra was ruthlessly grabbed by the neck by Naruto's left hand in less than an instant and felt the awesome punches from Naruto's right fist. Serra qcuikly kicked Naruto away and performed "Toraryuu Rendan!!"
Naruto found himself being burned by all sides as Serra punched and kicked him with all she's got and with Chakra surrounding her entire body. As Naruto landed on the ground, he found himself with gashes all over his body… 'Damn… That was a real good combo… if it wasn't for Kyuubi's healing ways… I'd be dead now…'
Serra landed several feet away from him and stared dumbfounded as the wounds on Naruto's body began to heal immediately. 'That can't be!!'
Naruto jumped up on his feet and grinned. "Looks like even this won't be good enough for you, ey? Well…" Naruto sighed and did a single-handed seal. "Kyuubi Kai!"
Serra gulped loudly as she watched Naruto's eyes turn blood red, his hands turning into vicious claws and his teeth razor-sharp.Despite all these new aspects, Naruto didn't grow in size at all. "I never expected that I would be forced to use this Jutsu on any opponent… Where have you been all this time?! I've been wanting to try this on someone other than Gaara…"
Gaara was panting on his knees. So far Kinoko had not been able to even attack Gaara, since he was too fast in this transformed state. Kinoko did not even have time to utter words. So he wished Gaara would soon grow tired. Kinoko was now completely focused on letting the spores that were filling the air around everyone drains the Chakra. The main problem was that the other Akatsuki members' Chakra also was getting drained.
Kinoko looked at the panting Gaara and watched how Gaara transformed back to his normal state. 'It is done…' Kinoko looked up to see Naruto was easily defeating Serra in his transformed state. 'Hmmm, that one is even more skilled, it seems… His ability is to have an enormous amount of Chakra… How long will it take before he runs out?' Kinoko looked at the others…
Kisame and Doro's summons had already vanished from the scenery, Kisame's summon had the Hawk cornered. The Hawk disappeared and Kisame made his Turtle disappear after that. Both Doro and Kisame were too exhausted to go on. Itachi was too tired to go on, but had killed Turin. Before him, Gaara was panting like hell and was glaring at him. Kinoko glared back. 'These guys are definitely something else… The second time we meet, they will probably know how to fight me…'
Kinoko observed the others. The two Hyugas were still standing, but were already low on Chakra, they had beaten their enemies, but had not yet killed them. This meant that after the battle was over, he had to carry a lot of people… So, he had to create a few clones… Kinoko watched Sinobi and Baeda, who were both already unconscious. 'Those two don't have much Chakra compared to the others…' Suddenly, Kinoko was forced to jump away from a huge hand of sand.
"You still have Chakra?" Kinoko grumbled, but was suddenly slashed in the side by an attacking Naruto. 'Shit..!' Kinoko fell to the ground. 'These two are the strongest it seems…' He looked to the side to see the youngest Hyuga fall on his knees, while the other Hyuga was already unconscious. 'Damn…' A still transformed Naruto and Gaara were staring at him. Naruto rushed forward, while Gaara was almost out of Chakra.
Kinoko couldn't keep up with Naruto's speed and the air got knocked out of his lungs as Naruto dug his right fist in his stomach. Naruto's left fist slashed a big wound on Kinoko's chest. Kinoko fell backwards and during his fall he spitted out several spores on the ground. He slammed against a tree with his back and quickly and desperately performed hand seals… "Daitakegari!!"
Naruto and Gaara watched as five huge mushrooms appeared on the ground. Instantly, the entire area looked like being sucked dry. Naruto and Gaara both also fell their Chakra being drained at a very high rate. Even Kinoko fell on his knees, but for a different reason.
Naruto changed back to his normal state and heavily breathed. Kinoko watched with awe as Naruto was still standing on his feet. "You can still stand?" Kinoko stared at Gaara, who was still conscious, but wasn't able to fight on and was lying on the ground. He turned back to Naruto. "You're really something else…" Naruto rushed forward to viciously punch Kinoko in the face. Naruto did a few hand seals, but found himself unable to do his Kage Bunshin…
Kinoko grinned as he panted. "Any Jutsu… Any seal.. wil be deactivated immediately because of the mushrooms…" Kinoko narrowed his eyes. 'I'm too exhausted to continue on any longer. I hope he faints soon… if I go unconscious, than he will surely recover… because all of my Jutsus will be deactivated if I go down. I can still…' Kinoko smirked. "However, I can still use my Jutsu, because these summons are mine! This element of fighting is completely mine…"
"Kindokuya!!"
The Mushrooms all started shooting poisonous arrows at Naruto, who was dodging for his life. Soon, though, he fell face down on the ground as his Chakra was out…
Kinoko sighed heavily as he deactivated the Summoning and fell to his knees. He watched Gaara and Naruto. 'What Shinobis… To think people like them are present in this world… I never thought it was possible for anyone to stay conscious that long around me when I have my spores activated…' Kinoko rose to his feet, walked over to Naruto and grabbed the Scrolls. 'I have to get out of here… I can only manage a single ordinary other clone, but no Spore Clone… I can lift two people, three if I feel like it… and my clone can also…'
Slowly, Kinoko performed a hand seal very tiredly and a Clone appeared beside him. He made the clone carry the Takabashi siblings and Doro Odei. He himself carried Hiraga Matsu, Baeda and Sukumi Tachi. 'I want to kill them for being so strong… but I'm too tired and can't risk staying any longer… I must heal… Even a normal villager would be able to beat me now…'
And then they jumped away, leaving the others
