True Power
Chapter 25: Kisame, Expensive Cat Food
"Ever since Derilk joined the Akatsuki, he has gotten two of his former partners killed. Each time he has returned with a Biju."
Leader of the Akatsuki
One week after the Sound/Sand War
"Hey, brats!"
Team 7 looked up from their places in the hot springs, to see Jiraiya approach them.
"Hey, Ero-Sannin," Naruto greeted cheerfully.
"Don't call me that," Jiraiya retorted. "I need you three to accompany me on a mission."
"What kind of mission?" Gaara asked suspiciously.
"Were going to bring back the new fifth Hokage, and gather more information on the Akatsuki, well we are at." Jiraiya explained. "Just meet me in this Inn when you are ready."
When Team 7 was packed they went to the Inn in question. Only to see Jiraiya walk out, two very attractive women attached to his arms.
"Sorry, I might be a little longer, brats," Jiraiya yelled out as he strode down the street.
"Perverted old man," Naruto muttered under his breath, as team 7 sat down in the Inn.
"Naruto," Haku said suddenly, "What should we do if we are attacked by the Akatsuki? Feneris said that, the seal disrupter affected our seals in such a way that we can only access enough demonic chakra to get to level 2 forms. We could not even scratch Derilk with our level 1 forms."
"That jutsu also caused a whole bunch of havoc with the Hyuuga," Gaara pointed out. "The Cage Seals on about 80 of the branch house were erased. Now the Main House is on hot nails, trying to prevent civil war."
"Hey losers." Team 7 heard the voice of Sasuke sound from behind them. "What do you mean when you said…"
"HIT THE GROUND!" Haku boomed.
Team 7 and Sasuke hit the ground, as a familiar windmill shurikin burst through the wall and started to slice the support pillars. With a rumble the Inn collapsed.
Derilk levitated above the rubble and caught the returning shurikin. Then Gaara's dome of sand burst outwards scattering rubble.
"Well, we can't expect a collapsing Inn to stop three Jinchuuriki can we?" Derilk mused to himself. "And we have a weakling Uchiha. Can't expect much from a clan with a flawed bloodline."
"Why you…" Sasuke growled, as he launched himself at Derilk.
Derilk reached out and caught Sasuke's foot, as the Uchiha tried to kick him.
"Pathetic," He muttered, as he tossed Sasuke aside like a rag doll.
"Take this! Demonic Windmill Shurikin!" Sasuke bellowed; his Sharingan eyes on.
Derilk absently tossed his own shurikin behind his back. The two weapons collided turning Sasuke's into a pile of scrap. "Pathetic human construction," Derilk said to himself. "Now Uchiha, time to see why they call me the Copier of Bloodlines."
Derilk began to go through a series of hand seals.
"What in Hell's name?" Sasuke thought alarmed. "He's making hand seals so fast, even my sharingan cannot see what they are!"
"Mimicry Jutsu! Sharingan!"
Sasuke stared a Derilk in shock. Derilk had raised his hat, so that his eyes were visible.
They were red, with three comma's rotating around the pupil.
Suddenly, Derilk was gone.
"Stab of Pain." Was the only warring Sasuke got, before a sword stabbed him in the side. He kneeled over in pain as the sword wound began to glow black.
"Now on to you three," Derilk said turning around in midair. "Bolt of the Sky Jutsu!"
Gaara's sand acted as a lighting rod and intercepted the colossal electrical bolt. However, the shockwave blew Team 7 backwards. There was a poof of smoke below Derilk and there Kisame stood.
"Damnit, Derilk you always leave me behind!" Kisame growled. "What the hell happened to your eyes?"
"The Sharingan," Derilk answered. "Watch out for the fire."
"Wha…?"
"Grand Fox Fireball!" Naruto yelled, taking advantage of distraction Kisame provided.
Kisame and Derilk dodged out of the way of the monstrous fireball that Naruto launched. The fireball turned around and headed right for Derilk's exposed back. The fireball exploded on contact. Flaming bits of black cloth rained down from the sky.
To the shock of everyone Derilk dropped out of the blaze completely unharmed, and without his clock and hat.
He had black skin like other dark elves, but his white hair had a metallic sheen to it and was cut to an even shoulder length. The black concealment cloak that other dark elves wore was draped over his shoulders. He also wore a suit of armour that was made of black dragon hide, with a gold trim. A forehead protector with a rune on it was covering his forehead.
"Good thing I made the important things fire proof, huh?" He remarked. "Ice Dragon Jutsu!"
A giant dragon made of Ice formed and attacked Naruto, Haku, and Gaara. He then turned to Kisame. The Shark-like ninja had a look of surprise on his face.
"Your, that dark elf that trying to take over the sound!" Kisame stated.
"Good, the shark has a brain," Derilk remarked. "But, I cannot let you tell anyone about this."
In a flash he was in front of Kisame. The former mist ninja brought Samehada down. Derilk blocked the giant sword with his shurikin and with a quick swipe of his sword, he decapitated Kisame.
Making a quick hand seal he summoned an Akatsuki clock and a straw hat. Just in time to see Haku destroy the ice dragon.
"As much as I would love to kill you three, I must go," Derilk said, as he sunk into the shadows.
Team 7 glanced at stared at the spot where Derilk had stood moments before.
"Why the Hell did he attack and then leave?" Team 7 collectively thought.
"Hey brats, what the hell happened?" Jiraiya said, as he ran down the street.
"We were attack by the Akatsuki, while you were out doing Kami knows what," Gaara explained. "We're going with you on that mission by the way."
Jiraiya was going to asked more, but he was interrupted by the arrival of the ANBU.
On a windswept peak out side the Hidden Cloud Village…
Derilk slid out of a shadow and was greeted by another figure wearing an Akatsuki cloak. The other individual hid his face with a mask similar to what ANBU wear, only the mask was covered in what looked like dried blood. Blood red elven eyes peered out through the mask's eyeholes, and he had blood red hair that was cut in manner similar to Derilk's, only in a rougher fashion. He also carried two kamas attacked to his belt, one had a smooth blade with a red streak, and the other's blade was serrated.
"Derilk Darkblade, I am your new partner Gerian Bloodreaver."
"Good to see you again Gerian," Derilk replied. "I take it everything is going according to plan?"
"Of course, we have elves hidden within every level of the Hidden Sound, we should be ready for the take over in about 4 years, give or take."
"Good, for now we will just find the Fire Nekomata hidden in the Cloud Village, and wait." Derilk finalized.
"Oh Derilk, when do you think the Leader will figure out you have been giving him fake Biju?" Gerian asked, smirking under his mask.
Derilk smiled evilly, behind his cloak. "When it is too late, Gerian, When it is too late."
Authors Note: A little insight into Derilk's plans
Also Sasuke is supossed to take a major ego beating, for the sake of the plot
Writers Question: OCs, are they okay? The Elves, Feneris, Derilk, Gerian, are supposed to be powerful.
