Calling all Demons - Chapter 5
"Come Naruto...come to your sister that loves you..." Chitose held out her hands as the other demon beside her performed a jutsu. Naruto's eyes became blurred as he started to walk forward towards the demons.
"Sister...." he mumbled as he held out his hands, edging closer to the two demons. Sasuke couldn't stand there silent anymore. He walked towards Naruto, hoping that the blonde would recognise him at least.
"Naruto, you don't have to go, you don't have to..." He was soon halted by the Demon tiger, who stood in front of the Uchiha, ready to attack. Naruto had reached Chitose, hands grasped each other as Chitose led Naruto to the hole which was in the wall. She then looked at Sasuke, a blazing hatred burning from her eyes. She held her brother in her arms as she glared at the Uchiha.
"How dare you say that my brother should stay here," she hissed at Sasuke."I know how he is treated here...and now he will return to a peaceful existence...without YOUR HELP!!!" With this Mao-Neko attacked.
"REEEEEEEEOOOOOOWWWW!!!!" this would mean : Death Claws the Demon Tiger hissed as a tiger was seen above her head. With a move of the fist, Sasuke was thrown into the air, being hit by a slight, yet extremely strong force of Chakra. As he crashed onto the ground, Chitose stood at the hole with her brother in her arms, staring at the black haird boy.
Sasuke Uchiha, I could end your life now, but that is not the wish of my brother. She sighed as she held Naruto and disappeared into the wind with Mao-Neko. As Sasuke felt himself slipping into unconsciousness, he watched as his beloved Naruto was taken away.
Naruto....I'm so...sorry....
Iruka stood there, his nerves slowly giving way to the demon that was taking advantage of him. In his mind he cursed himself. He was a demon for heaven's sake. And the demon, although he looked around the Chuunin's age, was most likely far older. But the demon was so good with his movements, everything seemed so wrong....and yet....
This seemed too good to give up....
However the Demon stopped when a rustle in the bush signalled that there was someone nearby.
"You just stay put, my little morsel," Nakaziu whispered as he bound Iruka to the lampost with Chakra. Iruka could do nothing but watch as the demon shark walked away, stopping at the edge of the light that was coming from the lamp-post. A familiar voice echoed through the shadows, a strong, yet eerily calm voice that filled the Chuunin with assurance and care.
"You'd had better release Iruka now, or your future will be death," the voice said as Nakaziu stood there, his violet eyes brimming with excitement.
"Well well, if it isn't the prince, come to save his so-called 'princess'," The demon shark grinned as a kunai was thrown at him. The demon dodged it with ease, but at this point Kakashi revealed himself from the shadows. However his counter-punch was blocked by the perceptive demon.
"Now that's not very nice is it. I'm unarmed." The demon grinned as his nails became large claws. Kakashi knew then that a fight with the demon was imminent. The Jounin opened his pouch and pulled out a pair of Kunai to attack.
"Release Iruka-NOW!!!!" Kakashi almost yelled as he and the demon charged at one another, weapons and claws at hand.
The battle had begun.....
Sasuke slowly opened his eyes, the red moon's light shining onto the Uchiha as he slowly woke up. The last time he checked the clock, it was at least 5:46pm. And Now it was 6:10pm. His eyes darted around the room, looking for something, not even noticing the blood oozing down his neck.
NARUTO.....
"Naruto, are you there?" he called out, hoping, no, praying that the nightmare wasn't real. That Naruto was safe with the Uchiha and not in the arms of a demon. He slowly trudged through the carnage in a daze. "Naruto, it's me, Sasuk...." He caught his foot on something that felt somewhat like a rock. He turned to find that it wasn't a rock that he tripped on, it was a body. This is when his mind cleared up from the daze. Naruto was taken away, just like Mahomaru had foretold. He knees gave away on him as he collapsed onto the ground, his face embedded with shock with the realisiation of the situation.
"Naruto's....gone...." He slammed his fist into the ground, tears streaming from his face. He felt his face grow hot with anger, but in his mind, he was lost.
Without Naruto he was lost....
"Sa---Sasuke...." The Uchiha could hear a small whimper, a silent cry filled with pain and imminent death. Sasuke searched around the room, trying to find the location of the person who was crying out to him.
"Sasu--ke....." he turned around a bit more, looking behind him as he did so. He then found the source of the cry. Under a mess of rubble, lying helpless on the ground, was Mahomaru.
"Mahomaru-san!!!" He quickly went to her side and removed most of the rubble, giving the mortally wounded nurse some ease. "How, how did this happen?"
"I....I was helping some staff out with the patient dinners....an explosion....I couldn't escape her--demonic claws technique..." Mahomaru muttered, the hands of death slowly gripping her. It was by this point that Sasuke noticed that her bones had been shattered in nearly all the areas of her body except for her neck. She slowly turned her head to Sasuke, who had his full attention to her. "Sasuke....You---need to save - Naruto...."
"How, how do I save him, please tell me Mahomaru-san!!" Sasuke sounded hectic as Mahomaru slowly turned her head back to the ceiling.
"In my desk, in the top left draw.....there are five shards of crystals tied---together, and there...is a scroll with them. That---that is your way...to the demon realm. The scroll---will make your appearance change....but that is---necessary, as the Demon world is---different----from this world... As long--as the red moon is up tonight...you will---get to---the demon world..." She slowly turned to Sasuke, her final smile gracing a face soon to be silenced with death.
"Go, Uchiha....he--needs you..." Sasuke nodded as he stood up. He was ready to go to her desk when he felt arms grasp around his waist. He turned to find that it was Sakura who was stopping him. He tried to move, however her grip was amazingly strong.
"Let go of me, Haruno..." So cold was his voice, it nearly killed Sakura inside, but she wouldn't let him go.
"NO!!! Why do you have to go anyways, why do you always have to fight!!!!"
"Naruto's in danger, I have to...."
"I don't care whether Naruto lives or not, he's where he belongs, with filth!!!" Once again the pink-haired had pushed Sasuke into a state of anger. He turned around and pushed Sakura hard, causing the pink-haired girl to collapse onto her knees completely. She looked up at Sasuke, who stood ready to leave. "WHY!!! Why is Naruto so important anyway!!!!??!?" Sasuke looked back, feeling some slight sympathy before turning back to the exit.
"Because Naruto belongs here, as long as he has people that care about him..." With this he ran off to Mahomaru's office, leaving Sakura shattered on the floor.
"Why...why does he want to risk it all....for him...." Sakura said to herself, her tears dropping to the ground. She heard a small laugh from behind, and she turned to find Mahomaru, smiling with eyes half closed.
"You don't---get it, do you?"
"What do you mean....?"
"Sasuke...and Naruto. Sasuke is--saving Naruto, because it's....it's..."
"It's what?" Sakura wanted to know what drove the Uchiha to save a low-life like Naruto.
"It's---Love..." And as Sakura's world shattered with those words, Mahomaru's world became dark....
Sasuke quickly reached Mahomaru's office where he practically threw open the top left draw. He saw the crystal shards and the scroll. He snatched them from their resting places and ran to the nearby window, jumping out of it, his destination - Hokage Mountain
Kakashi and Nakaziu took blow after blow from each other. When Kakashi thought he had defeated the demon with Random weapon attacks, the water demon would attack with something equally as powerful. Blow after blow, attack after attack. This continued for a few minutes, the fighting never stopping, the blood slowly being spilled. Afterwards, they stood there point blank, eyes fixed on each other, both energy levels from the fighters were low, but they were willing to die if they needed to. Iruka watched as the two fighters prepared to attack, his eyes swelling with tears.
Nakaziu.... The demon shark heard the familiar voice of his master calling him in his mind.
Lady Chitose....
Nakaziu, it's time to go, we have our target, now finish what you are doing....
The demon shark sighed. It was getting so interesting too.... He snapped his nail and threw it at Kakashi. Kakashi dodged it easily, however it came back, going through his right hip. A loud hiss of pain escaped the Jounin's mouth as Nakaziu grinned.
"Well, it seems that I have to go, but I have to take something with me as a memorabilia," He smirked as a star headed towards the battling pair. However it wasn't a star that crashed into the battle scene, it was Chitose and Mao-Neko, as well as an unconscious Naruto. Nakaziu walked to the small group, and turned to Kakashi. "I did have fun though, so be proud..." The demons figures started to become transparent as they disappeared. Kakashi thought it was all over, however he heard a shout from Iruka that told him otherwise. The jounin turned to find the Chuunin becoming transparent as well.
"IRUKA!!!" Kakashi shouted as he ran to the disappearing Chuunin.
"Kakashi!" Iruka's faint voice shouted as he disappeared. Kakashi turned to the sky, pure rage burning within him.
"How DARE YOU!!!" He shouted as a laugh followed the Jounin's cries. "YOU BRING IRUKA BACK, YOU DEMONIC BASTARD!!!" The laugh of the demon shark became louder as Iruka disappeaed completely.
"I said I was taking a memorabilia item, I didn't say what it was, did I?" As the laugh faded to nothing, Kakashi was left in the spotlight caused by the lamp-post. He turned and smashed his fist against the lamp-post, his anger swelling from within.
This isn't over, Demonic Bastard...... He turned when he heard footsteps. The jounin instanly took out his kunai and aimed it at the intruders throat, only to find that it was....
"Sasuke, what are you doing here??" Kakashi asked as he withdrew his weapon. Sasuke knelt to the ground and read the scroll as he placed the shards onto their designated spots. He scribbled some Kanji onto the ground as he rolled the scroll up again, placing it into the middle of the shards. He formed a seal with his hands, looking at Kakashi at the same time.
"I'm going to save Naruto, by going into the demon world," the Uchiha answered as Kakashi went to Sasuke's side.
"I have to go too. Iruka's been taken and there's a certain 'demon' I have to kill...." Kakashi said, his voice dangerously low. Sasuke just sighed as Kakashi mimicked the seal using the sharingan. It's not like Sasuke hadn't noticed the slight wound on Kakashi's hip.
"Okay then." Was all that the Uchiha said before calling out the sacred words. "DEMON WORLD OPEN!!!!" An enormous rumble was heard followed by a giant flashing light.....
Sasuke felt like he had the wind kicked out of him. He slowly woke up, hearing Kakashi's voice in the background.
"Sasuke..."
"mmmmnnnn....." Was all that the raven-haired youth could say.
"Sasuke, I think you'd better look at yourself." Sasuke slowly pulled himself up and wearily crawled to a nearby creek. However the reflection that faced the Uchiha was not of the normal Sasuke, but something totally different. A boy with black hair, with extra blue streaks on his bangs, his eyes changed from black into a neon green. Deep green lines etching his face, and what he was wearing was not the same either, a black leather coat. Despite this though, Sasuke wasn't phased by his change of appearance.
So this is what you meant Maru-san when you said my appearance would change. Thankyou.
The Uchiha turned to where Kakashi was standing. The jounin's appearance had changed as well. For once he had the same coloured eyes, purple in coulor and his face was etched with white lines. He was also wearing a trenchcoat that looked like Sasuke's. However what phased Sasuke was the surrounding area. Around them the landscape was eerie and dark looking. A crimson sky with a purple orb in the sky. The grass was a golden colour and in the distance, there was a city, a city that was sounded loud, unruly and strangely enough...free of any trouble.
"This is the demon world...." Sasuke whispered as he walked towards the town, Kakashi following close behind.
"Come Naruto...come to your sister that loves you..." Chitose held out her hands as the other demon beside her performed a jutsu. Naruto's eyes became blurred as he started to walk forward towards the demons.
"Sister...." he mumbled as he held out his hands, edging closer to the two demons. Sasuke couldn't stand there silent anymore. He walked towards Naruto, hoping that the blonde would recognise him at least.

NARUTO.....
"Naruto, are you there?" he called out, hoping, no, praying that the nightmare wasn't real. That Naruto was safe with the Uchiha and not in the arms of a demon. He slowly trudged through the carnage in a daze. "Naruto, it's me, Sasuk...." He caught his foot on something that felt somewhat like a rock. He turned to find that it wasn't a rock that he tripped on, it was a body. This is when his mind cleared up from the daze. Naruto was taken away, just like Mahomaru had foretold.
