Chapter 19
Kakashi slammed into the wall behind him, having just been thrown by an attack from the Akatsuki member. Various pictures that had been hanging up rained down around him. As he lay there, recovering his wind, he glimpsed a picture of Seyann that had landed on the floor beside him. The frame and the glass were cracked but that wasn't what mattered. In the picture stood Seyann with her long brown hair blowing in some invisible breeze. Her eyes were a greenish-brown-the color they had been before her trait had been unsealed. She was leaning against a man who had his arm around her-he could only assume he was her father. But seeing her…
Reminded him why he was fighting.
He reached down, deep down into his chakra storage container and scraped as much of it as he could use and still have enough left to live and preformed 3 hand seals Ox-Hare-Monkey… "Lightning Blade!" He yelled, sending waves of pure chakra at the Akatsuki nin.
"How could you just let her leave?" exploded Mika at her boyfriend. Michelle had been called over when Seyann had still been at Mika's house and she was berating her cousin as well. Mika paced the room anxiously; black hair swirling around her face, as Gaara just stood there and took the yelling. He understood just how stressed she was-her friend had vanished, gone to a place where she would be in certain danger…when she had been sent away from that place for her protection. When she finally stopped pacing and sat down on the bed, Gaara wrapped an arm around her shoulders and drew her into him for comfort. "Shh…if she's going where we all know she's going, she's going to be with Kakashi. She will be fine." He said in an assuring voice.
Kakashi fell to his knees, unable to move. Using the Lightning Blade had taken away the last bit of chakra…the enemy nin twirled a kunai between his fingers much as he had done earlier when he had been laughing at Kakashi. He said in a smirking voice "You know, I've always wanted to be the one who took down the Copy Nin, the infamous Hatake Kakashi." He stopped twirling his kunai and smirked. Lunging at Kakashi with almost more force than necessary, he yelled "YOU'RE FINISHED KAKASHI!"
Kakashi grimaced as the enemy raced towards him. 'Damn I've used too much chakra…' he closed his eyes as the nin closed in on him. 'This…could be it…'
'Seyann…' He waited for the killing blow.
But it never came. He heard the kunai slice something and heard blood splatter onto the ground, but he never actually felt the pain himself.
He cautiously opened his eyes…
Only to be greeted by a slender figure with long brown hair standing in front of him. The figure had her arms up in a blocking position and the blood was coming from where the kunai had been buried in her left arm.
He knew her… "SEY!" he yelled, panicked.
The enemy nin widened his eyes in surprise but then his eyes got an evil glint in them. He twisted the kunai viciously causing her to yelp in pain before he sprang backward, effectively ripping the knife out of her arm. Dropping her arms to her sides, with the blood in a spider web pattern down the left one, she lowered her head so that it was impossible to tell her eye color. She did, however, speak.
"I won't have it…I won't let you…even if I can't do anything, can't fight…even if my chakra control sucks…I will not let you…. I…"
She looked up, her eyes becoming visible. Instead of just being the normal angry red…. they were…fire. She was so angry; her emotions had come out as fire burning in her eyes. "I WILL NOT LET YOU HURT THE ONES I LOVE!" She yelled. The blonde nin in front of her scoffed. "What can you do? You can't even fight."
The scowl on her face darkened. Her body seemed to pulse as she lowered her head so that her bangs covered her eyes. The top of her mouth rose in a snarl and beneath it, the blonde nin could see her incisors growing and lengthening into fangs. Raising her left hand up to her face, the blood spider webbed down her arm as he watched her fingernails lengthen into claws. Kakashi looked at her right hand and watched the same thing happen. "Seyann…"
Suddenly the girl yelped and grabbed her right shoulder with her left hand, blood dripping onto the floor. From Kakashi's vantage, he could see that the back of her shirt was starting to sizzle and burn. "My…Back…It Burns…" growled Seyann, sounding more feral than human. Purple chakra began to swirl around her.
"Where's…this enormous chakra coming from?" Said the enemy nin, raising one hand to his face in surprise.
As her back stopped burning and Kakashi saw her shirt stop sizzling, she dropped her hands at her side. Suddenly, without any warning, it seemed as though a weight had been lifted as an enormous amount of purple chakra was released and it surrounded her, swirling around her like a freak breeze. She had her … the only word to describe her nails was claws…on both hands tensed and ready to strike…like an animal.
The times that Kakashi had ever seen anyone like this before was when Naruto went to Kyuubi form.
Then, through the swirling chakra, as her hair blew around, he glimpsed something on her back. He couldn't make it out however.
Until the chakra, as abruptly as it had released, stopped swirling around. She dropped to one knee, no longer having the support of the chakra and caught her breath. As her hair settled back down, she raised her right hand to just beside her head and cracked her knuckles. While she did this, he saw what had burned her back so much. His eyes widened when he realized what it was.
'That Kanji…'
'That's…the same kanji that Gaara of the Desert has…'
"What does this mean?" he murmured out loud. For, engraved on her back, was the kanji Ai.
Seyann snarled, seemingly incapable of forming sentences at this point. Cracking her knuckles again, she faced the Akatsuki nin and leapt towards him, fueled by a chakra that wasn't her own. A single slash with her razor-sharp claws…
A spurt of blood…the enemy nin was dead before he hit the ground.
Seyann stood over his body, staring at the blood on her hand with a delighted smirk that showed off her razor sharp incisor teeth. As she lowered her hand to her side, the blood from the gash on her arm mingled with the blood from the enemy nin.
She turned partially and looked back at Kakashi. The expression on his Seyann's face startled him-it was so unlike her normal happy expression. She was smiling…but her face was evil looking. Her eyes were red, as they were when she got angry but….a different kind of red. He had a feeling they were red now…from what ever had caused her fingernails to turn to claws and her teeth to turn into fangs.
Her eyes had also changed shape as well as color. They were now almond shaped and the cornea was red while the pupils…were slits, like a cat's. As she smirked, she growled out "Heh…" She cracked her knuckles and…her body pulsed and…
Suddenly, she blinked and she was Seyann again. Her teeth and fingernails shrank and her eyes went back to normal with normal pupils. Her eye color however, was an off gray. Almost right after she went back to normal, her eyes shut and she fell over backwards.
"SEYANN!" Forcing himself to move before she hit the ground, Kakashi was at her side just in time, catching her bridal style in his arms.
A/N-Yeah…Can you, my readers, figure out what in the heck just happened to Seyann? shifty eyes I sure don't…
