I do not own Naruto or any of the characters. All I own is my own character Koei X, and the original plot that has been inserted in.

Number 5: I am the Frozen Snow

Saga: Darkness is All I Can See

"That's your father!" Sasuke spat angrily, glaring over in his direction.

"Why's your friend so rude?" Yuki asked, looking at Sasuke. His eyes left him a second later and rested on his daughter, her head still down, looking at the ground and her feet. "Do you still hate me that much, after all these years?"

Koei's hands tensed up at her sides and her eyebrows furrowed. Slowly, she raised her head so he could get a look at it. Her pupils had dilated and her faced was full of hate and anger.

"How could I not hate you!" Koei screamed.

Yuki flicked his hand in front of his face and held a kunai in it, inches from his left eye.

"I've seen you've gotten better," Yuki replied, closing his eyes, then snapped it in half.

Everyone stared at the two in amazement. Koei had managed to make a movement that not even their instructor could comprehend without the use of his Sharigan Eye.

"But you're still nowhere near my level," Yuki added, flashing her a smile. He cracked his fingers in and gave Kakashi a quick glance before slamming Koei into a nearby tree. His hand clutched her throat as she valiantly tried to escape.

"How does it feel Koei? To be killed by the hand of your father?" Yuki asked her, whispering. "You were hoping to take revenge on your mother… Yes? Hoping to kill lime because she could not?"

"Yeah, you sick bastard!" Koei choked out, glaring at him. "I hope you burn in Hell for everything you've done!"

"But your going with me," Yuki muttered, putting full pressure on the hand around her neck, snapping it. He snickered and then let the body drop to the ground. Turning his back away form her as it turned to smoke and vanished. "I see, you're a lot smarter than I took you for."

"Of course. I am being trained by Kakashi Sensei," Koei answered, jumping down from a nearby tree, landing cat like on the ground. Her eyes full of malice a she stared up at her father, meeting the same look. "What have you come here for? Surely not to kill me, you could have done that when I was a child."

"Smart as ever," Yuki answered. "I did not come here intending to kill you. I hoped you would seek me out on your own, yearning to se my blood, my dead corpse. But not today Koei, not today will I see death. I've come here for your escort. Ojiru, I want him to make a sword for me. Since it seems that you have mine…"

Kakashi looked over at Ojiru, as if asking for him to explain what was going on.

"I have no clue. This is still an escort mission," Ojiru replied. "I didn't have the faintest idea that he would be tracking me! Honest!"

Kakashi turned away from him and back to Koei, who was still glaring at her father.

"You're not getting a sword," Koei said, reaching for her own. "You're not going to create another demon! I won't allow it!"

"Stop me," Yuki replied, charging at her, kunai in hand.

She flipped out her sword and countered his kunai with a block, shoving her father and the weapon in his hand away from her with one quick push of the sword. Jumping into the air she slammed her sword down, in the position her father had been in seconds ago before quickly steeping aside.

Breathing heavily, mostly out of anger and frustration she jerked her sword out of the ground and took a stance. Sword in front of her and her knees slightly bent, waiting for him to make the first move.

"Pathetic! Can't you even manage to hit me!" Yuki taunted. "I don't believe that you're my daughter! What a disgrace!"

"But it's more of a disgrace to have you as my father," Koei replied. "For someone such as you should have never been born into this world. Creating more demons and anguish for others is not something to comprehend or be proud of…"

"I hate honorable people," Yuki said, looking at her, and then spat at her feet. "They get on my nerves… Almost as much as your bitch of a mother…"

Koei's whole face twitched. More anger was unleashing. Her charka was now glowing around her fiercely.

"You think some stupid trick is going to scare me!" Yuki screamed at her. "Am I making you mad Koei! Am I making you mad by insulting your mother! That bitch that you called mother for the first four years of your life! She should have meant nothing to you! She held you back from ever accomplishing any real goals!"

"No… Those were your goals," Koei replied. She felt like she was on fire, her charka had just taken another skyrocket. "You wanted me to follow in your footsteps. You wanted me to be your apprentice… To follow you to hell!"

"If it was hell, than so be it, but you're mother was not going to get in the way of my goals," Yuki replied, narrowing his eyes at her. "That's why she had to die. In order for you to become stronger, in order for you to suffer…"

"I HATE YOU!" Koei screamed at the top of her lungs, tears were already brimming her eyes. "You made my life a hell! You're going to pay for it! I'M GOING TO KILL YOU RIGHT HERE AND NOW!"

"Then do it already. Stop saying what you are going to do and do it!" Yuki screamed back. His charka was staring to flame along with hers.

Charging at him, she swung down her sword, only managing to get the blade caught by the hands of her father.

"You're weak," Yuki said, flipping her over his back, the sword still in his hand.

Koei let go of the sword as soon as she was slammed into the ground. A wave of pain rushed over her back as she tried to stand up, but failed.

"You're dead," Yuki said, silently to himself as he turned around. He stared down at her body and then slammed the sword down, right through her middle.

Screaming in pain, she gripped the ground around her, trying to suppress it. Blood was being forced up her throat and out of her mouth. Eyes wide she looked up at her father scared, more scared than she had ever been in her life. Death was flashing before her eyes.

"So this isn't a trick then," Yuki asked leaching sown, close to her face. A new smile was on it. "Then you are dying, right here? Without your revenge? Pathetic…"

"KOEI!" Naruto and Sakura screamed in unison. Their comrade was going to die right before their eyes if they didn't do anything about it.

Sasuke flinched as more blood came coughing out of her mouth. SH was just the same as him. Trying to seek revenge against a family member for deaths of the people most important to them. She was trying to get her revenge. And now right before her eyes it was crumbling.

Sasuke jumped away from where he was standing and came charging at Yuki. A second later he was slammed into a tree, blood coming from his own mouth as well.

"Don't interfere, she's going to die wither you like it or not!" Yuki screamed at him.

"SASUKE!" Sakura screamed, her hands pressed to her face.

Naruto frowned as his hands tensed. Everyone was starting to go from bad to worse. One person was dying right before his eyes, and another was hurt. He had to do something.

"Stay right there Naruto!" Kakashi screamed, holding his hand out in front of him. "Don't move or he'll kill you!"

"I don't care! What about Koei? She's dying!" Naruto screamed back, making another attempt to press forward. But was again stopped by Kakashi. "MOVE, NOW!"

"Will you just shut-up for a minute!" Kakashi yelled.

"I won't let you kill her!" Sasuke spat at Yuki, he was still being pressed up against the tree. "I'm not going to let her die because of you!"

"You're pretty pathetic yourself, for being of the Uchiha clan," Yuki replied, glaring at him. "There's nothing you can do to stop me… Nothing at all… You're going to die here, now-…"

His eyes bulged just as he was cut off. Spitting blood all over Sasuke shirt, he finally let go of him and slide down. He came to a top at Sasuke's feet. Blood poured out of his mouth, nonstop. He was bleeding from the inside.

Koei stood over him, the sword that was in her stomach now in her ands and twisting around in Yuki's back.

"Just die demon! Just die!" Koei screamed, giving the sword another sharp push as it finally broke through to the other side. Collapsing to her knees along with her father she begun to lose more blood, both through her mouth and the gaping wound in her stomach. Her black kimono was stained and oozing with blood.

"Yo… You… No…" Yuki said coughing. He fell down on his stomach. Eyes as wide as they could manage to go. "You've finally… Got your r-revenge I… See…"

"Good-bye gather," Koei muttered, falling on her back a few inches away from him. "just die already so you don't have to suffer anymore."

Sasuke got up and looked at the dead body before him. Yuki had finally died, in a pool of his own blood. Koei was a few inches away gasping for breath.

"Koei?" Sasuke asked, sitting down beside her body. "Just calm down, you're losing a lot of blood and you might be going into shock. You have to maintain your breathing Koei… Or else you're going to die…"

"I died with my mother a long time ago," Koei whispered as he opened her robe and pulled her shirt up off of her wound. "There isn't a point in saving me now… Not when you all know I'm going to die… Sasuke? Thank you… Thank you listening to me… Good luck with your revenge… Tell… Tell Naruto that if he doesn't become Hokage then I'll haunt him forever with my spirit…"

"Just shut-up! You're not going to die!" Sasuke growled towards her as he tried to stop the blood flow. "You're going to live dammit! I'm not going to let you die!"

"Sasuke…" Sakura whispered as she walked over to the two of them, Naruto and Kakashi at her side. Bending down slowly she put her hands over his and pulled them away. "Sasuke… She's already dead…"

"No…" Sasuke moaned down at her body in horror.

Koei's eyes were closed and her mouth was open slightly. Her breathing had stopped and she was starting to grow cold.

Getting up slowly he stumbled away from her body and crashed into a nearby tree. Holding onto it with one of his hands as if for dear life he screamed in pan and anguish. A second latter he was puking.

Naruto stared down at the body bellow him sadly… Why did this happen to her? Why did this have to happen?

You could still hear Sasuke's screams of agony.

Sasuke looked down at the grave below him. A huge, out of bloom cherry tree soared above him. Kakashi and his two other teammates stood at his side as the Hokage spoke to them and a few others that had come to her funeral.

As soon as everyone finished saying their words they left, Sasuke was the only one left standing there. Alone.

Staring down at her grave he opened his mouth to speak but closed it again. The words just wouldn't come to mind. He didn't know what to say to her now…

Slowly snow begun to fall. Frowning, he looked up at the sky. It was just now the second day of winter… Why was it snowing this soon into the season?

Giving the grave another glance the words finally came to his mind.

"I will forever remain the frozen snow, in order to save the memory that we shared together," Sasuke whispered, his face emotionless.

Turning his back to the tree and grave he begun to walk away.
