"Kakashi-sensei, glad you could make it." Ayato spoke as Kakashi entered the grounds. "Is that Yami or Ayato? I can't tell this time." He said coolly. "It's both of us." He looked very pleased as he lifted his headband from his left eye, revealing his sharingan. "By the way, I'm not your sensei unless you win. So what will it be this time, your sharingan or the byakugan?" Yami Ayato smirked and laughed. "Both…" This took Kakashi by surprise, until he heard, "Byakuringan!" The Byakuringan… it's a combination of the byakugan and the sharingan. By appearance, the byakuringan has the red eyes of the sharingan and the power veins of the byakugan. It can track an opponent's moves, mirror them, and counter them. This is from the sharingan's side, but on the byakugan side… It can actually see an opponent's chakra network, read their emotions, and generate fear into an opponent.
"Where did you learn to combine your kekkei genkais like that?" Kakashi demanded. "We just did when we learned to work together. As one… as Yami Ayato!" Kakashi just scoffed. "Right, shall we begin?" "We're—I'm ready when you are." They went charging head on. Kakashi started out with a strong uppercut with a sidekick follow-up. "But Yami's speed provided for an excellent block. "Too slow!" Yami said as he lunged for a kunai slash. It hit its mark and Yami kicked Kakashi to the air with a combo of kicks and punches. Only to be fooled by a substitution… Where did he go? His question was answered by, "Earth Style! Headhunter Jutsu!" Yami was pulled under, but instead of being buried, he got kicked straight out of the ground. "Ahhhh! I'm far from finished!" He began to make hand signs. "Thunder Style! Thunderbolt Jutsu!" Kakashi was able to dodge the direct attack, but suffered a leg scorch. "You've gotten better, Yami. You're not as reckless." Yami smirked. "Not so bad yourself, Kakashi." "Let's finish this!" With that Kakashi took to the air, throwing kunai. Yami easily dodged. However, that was Kakashi's plan. With Yami off guard, he slid underneath which knocked him off balance. Kakashi then kicked him to the skies. "Take this!" he then created shadow clones, one had punched him square in the chest. The other three had kicked simultaneously into the air, where one was waiting for him with an axe kick that slammed into Ayato's face. "Uzumaki Barrage!" That slammed Yami to the ground. "You must've copied that from Naruto…" He said softly and then he melted. That Yami turned out to be a water clone. "That's impossible." "Earth Style! Headhunter Jutsu!" Kakashi was pulled under but instead of being kicked, he was left in the ground. "Now then. Let's try this again… Thunder Style! Thunderbolt Jutsu!"
The blast hit Kakashi directly this time; it obliterated the ground around him and sent Kakashi flying out of the ground. "My turn now." Yami yelled. He unleashed a powerful combo of his own. Another kunai slash, uppercut kick even further to the air, followed by a backhand blow to the back. A punch to the stomach, sidekicks to both of Kakashi's sides, and an axe kick to the head. Yami finished it off with a swooping lightning kick from the air, "Chidori Barrage!" Yami flipped off of Kakashi, panting heavily in the process. (Cough, cough, cough) "Alright, time to end this." Kakashi said as slowly got up. Yami couldn't believe it. "No one's ever been able to get up after that attack." "There's a first time for everything." Kakashi replied coolly, "There's only one last way to settle this, now." "The lightning blade…" "You read my mind." They both took a deep breath… and then, "Raikiri Summons!" Lightning began to surge from the grounds to Kakashi hands and lightning came from the skies to Ayato's. "This ends here, Yami Ayato!" Yami just smiled, "It doesn't matter, I've proven I'm not a kid…" Let's just finish this. As you wish, Yami Ayato… They both start to charge. "Lightning blade!" They ran right past each other, both standing strong until… (Cough, cough, cough) It was Kakashi, coughing up blood. "You've made me proud, Ayato." Kakashi spoke. Yami smirked, but fell to the ground unconscious. His hair returned to normal and his headband fell back over his eyes. The battle was over…
Three weeks later…
Ayato woke up later at Tenten's apartment, with an extreme headache, but surprised to see all of his friends around him. "SURPRISE!" they all yelled. "Ahh. Not so loud. What's goin' on?" They all smiled, but only Kakashi spoke, "I think 'she' should tell you, Ayato." Kakashi was pointing to Tenten. "Ayato… I'm… uhhhh… I'm pregnant." Ayato looked in shock. "What!" They all started to laugh. "You were great, Tenten!" Naruto said as he fell over backwards laughing. "Oh, very funny, Naruto. I guess this was your idea, Tenten?" "How did you know?" Ayato smirked. "'Cause I know you all too well…" It would be another week before Ayato could move normally again. In the meantime, he stayed over at Tenten's. He didn't expect any special treatment, but Tenten did attempt to nurse him back to health. "You don't have to do this, ya know." She only sulked. "Will you let go of that stupid pride of yours? You sound like Sasuke." It was his turn to sulk. "You're just lucky I can't move right now." Tenten brightened up. "I've already seen all you 'moves' Ayato." He let out a fake laugh. "You are such a freak…" "And proud of it!" she retaliated.
One more week later…
Ayato found himself summoned to the Hokage's office. Ayato was very nervous. "You wanted to see me again, ma'am?" Lady Tsunade stood up and walked over to Ayato with a piece of paper in her hand. "Ayato… congratulations!" He looked confused. "Under Kakashi's recommendation, you are now a registered jounin of the Village Hidden in the Leaves. Also… you are the newest member of Special Squad Sixteen." "What's the Special Squad Sixteen?" "Allow me." Kakashi said as he walked in. "Over the years, we've had more and more chunins become K.I.A. Lady Tsunade has decided to assemble a crack team to accomplish more dangerous missions." The Hokage just smiled at Ayato. "You'll meet the rest of your team outside." With that, Kakashi took Ayato outside to meet the team. "Oh, you've got to be kidding me." His team was none other than Naruto and Hinata, Sasuke and Sakura, and Kakashi and Anko. "In the squad, there are certain partners. There's one more, but it looks like she's…" "Wait! I'm here, Kakashi-sensei!" Ayato whipped around to see Tenten. "Well… like I was saying, in the squad, there are certain partners on the team of each member's own choice. You and Tenten are the only ones left without partners. So you two will now work with each other." Tenten was actually ecstatic, but Ayato wanted to mess with her… "Oh man, I should've gotten here earlier." He started to laugh, until he saw Tenten crying. "Tenten I didn't mean it like that—I'm—I'm sorry!" Gotcha! He actually fell for it! What a blind loser. Tenten just lifted her head to reveal a big smile. The whole squad, except Ayato, was teasing. "Awww. You really do care…" In retaliation, Ayato said, "No I don't, leave me alone!" But Tenten ran up to hug him. "I know you don't mean that. I wonder if there's any room at the hidden rock village. A little late for second guessing, Ayato…
It's been three years since Ayato came to the Konoha, the Village Hidden in the Leaves. Squad 16 has been making a name for themselves being the most successful squad in Konoha. They haven't failed one mission. But again, their team may have changed, but their attitudes haven't. Sasuke Uchina, heir to the most powerful clan in the hidden leaf village, still has all of his pride and his cool, calm attitude. His partner is Sakura Haruno, a konoichi, which is a female ninja. She IS, the brightest mind of the hidden leaf village. Sasuke still uses his favorite word when talking to Naruto, loser… it seems Sakura got her wish to be with Sasuke; she's now 2 months toward pregnancy. Naruto Uzumaki and Hinata Hyuga… the number-one, hyperactive, knucklehead meets the quiet heiress. Thanks to Naruto, Hinata's now 4 months into pregnancy. Their leaders, Kakashi Hatake and Anko, are now recognized as the most skilled jounins in all of Konoha. Kakashi still wears that headband over his left eye and he still covers most of his face. Anko is still very stern, but does keep Kakashi in check. Last, but not least… there's Tenten and Ayato Yami. Still as a chunin, like Naruto, Sakura, Sasuke, and Hinata, Tenten is still the most skilled weaponry expert. Her boyfriend, Ayato is still fighting strong right beside her. But unlike the other girls, Tenten has already had hers… her name is Ayame.
