The Shadow Wars
A/N: Someone has won the contest, but I won't say the answer yet. I'm feeling generous because of the high amount of responses (and not just about the contest) and will allow everyone who answers correctly between now and the next chapter (there will be a delay) to have their own custom character. However, one thing (to Kiyana Va Sala.) Your logic is good, but incorrect. The wardrobe of a character in a story may sometimes vary. Mizuki is a good guess, Godai, but also incorrect. I clearly stated that the character was killed, which rules out Mizuki (whose fate is unknown, since he wasn't shown after the first episode.)
Chapter 6
"Hokage-sama, Zasookage is trying to escape!" Karasa said.
"Good. I want to kill him myself." Hokage said.
"I have to get out of here. I can take on one Jounin, but I'm weakening!" thought Zasookage, frustrated that his village's defensive barrier wasn't enough. Suddenly, Hokage leaped in front of him.
"Zasookage, tell me one thing. Why have you kidnapped Uzumaki Naruto?" Hokage asked.
"The plan was to extract the Orb of Darkness from the boy." Said Zasookage.
"And who do you intend to revive, Zasookage?" asked Hokage.
"Harata Nikara, the Demon of Stone." Answered Zasookage.
"I will not let you!" Hokage shouted, throwing a powerful punch, which Zasookage blocked. Zasookage then countered with a sweep.
Hokage jumped over the sweep and then started to perform hand seals.
"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" Hokage shouted, instantly duplicating himself into twenty copies.
"Zasoo Bunshin no Jutsu." Zasookage said, creating many clones as well. Although there were less clones, they were all more powerful. They made short work of Hokage's Bunshins.
"You're slipping up, Takara-san!" Zasookage shouted. (Yes, Takara is the Sixth's name in this fic.)
"Not as much as you, Zasookage." Takara said, calmly, in contrast to his previous uproars.
"Takara-san, I was able to defeat you in your prime, when I was just an Academy Student. Are you telling me that you have a secret weapon?" asked Zasookage.
"Yes, I do." Takara said, performing hand seals fiercely. "Katon: Ho Tsunami no Jutsu!" Instantly, a huge wave of fire erupted from Takara's body and flowed toward Zasookage.
"That won't work against me!" said Zasookage, focusing his chakra to his feet. When the wave of fire reaching where he was, Zasookage was behind Takara. He instantly leaped and threw a kick into Takara's back.
Takara turned and blocked the kick, flipping Zasookage over his back. Zasookage countered with a punch to Takara's face, which hit.
Takara turned his face with the punch, killing the speed. He then countered with a hold, all the while readying a jutsu.
"Katon: Ho Te no Jutsu!" Takara shouted, as an aura of flame surrounded his left hand. He then drove his hand into Zasookage's stomach.
"Ah!" Zasookage shouted, coughing up blood. Takara then dropped Zasookage to the ground.
"You started a fight that you cannot win, Zasookage. You forgot that your village isn't strong. Most importantly, you set too high a goal for yourself. Did you not know that I would risk my life to save any member of the village, even the boy who acts as the medium for the monster that killed my parents? Did you!?" said Takara.
"I... Guess I forgot... What a sentimental fool you are!" said Zasookage, beginning his version of the Initial Lotus.
Takara dodged Zasookage's Lotus and used the remaining chakra around his hand as a kunai.
The flame kunai ripped through Zasookage's stomach. Blood spurted through the wound, weakening him. Three minutes later, he was dead.
Meanwhile, in the catacombs, Team 7 was fighting their way through toward the Research Catacombs. All three were fighting well, but they didn't have enough strength to counter the hordes of Stone-nins who were counterattacking.
"Kakashi-sensei, I have a plan." Sakura said, strangely calm.
"Yes, Sakura-san?" asked Kakashi.
"Yes, I'd like to know too." Said Sasuke.
"On the count of three, you two get into the surrounding rooms. I have a jutsu that will end this." Sakura said, beginning her hand seals.
"Die, you worthless corpse!" shouted Naruto, as he began throwing the body of Harata Nikara around, cutting it up with his kunai.
"No! Our plan! It's ruined!" one of the Jounin's that were fighting Naruto's Bunshins shouted as he dodged a punch thrown by one of the clones.
A/N: How did you like this chapter? I know it was short, but there was a lot of action and death. I know I didn't show Neji, Hinata, or any of the other Rookie Nine, but the battle isn't over yet.
Please note: Neji is one of my least favorite characters, so any Neji fans can feel free to skip his part (it won't be important to the story.) I'll also probably do something similar to Ino.
