Sasuke: Michiru doesn't own Naruto…

Nero: She doesn't own me either…

Michiru: Yes I do!

Nero: Prove it!

Michiru: -pulls out copyright document on Nero-

Nero: Damn you!

Blah Thought or Dream, Song

Blah Scene Change or Point of View Change

(Blah) Inner Sakura

Blah Chanting of Spells (Spells are in French, translations are at the end.)

Just then the front door slammed again and Michiru's brother stood there with a grin on his face. Blood was streaming down the sides of his forehead and he fell to his knees.

"Michiru… I'm glad you're alright…" he said.

Nina's POV

"Bug!" Michiru cried out as she went to her brother's side. "Bug… What happen?"

"It was Dragon… She caught up to me when I escape from Nero's gasp after saving the big forehead girl," Bug said.

"Watch it buddy!" Sakura fumed.

"Sakura shut up!" Nina yelled.

"Bug where is Nero?" Michiru ask.

"Follow the river upstream. You should be able to come to a clearing that is hidden from view from the training grounds," Bug said. "I'll be all right; it's just a flesh wound."

Michiru nodded at her brother and got up from his side. She looked at the group with a flame burning in her eyes.

"I'm going after both of them. Nina, Snowfire Fox I want you two to take Bug home. Don't wait for me to get back," Michiru said.

"We are not leaving you to deal with the situation itself Michiru! You can't take them both on alone!" Nina yelled.

"She isn't going by herself. She will have me with her," Itachi said.

"We are going too!" Naruto said. "We are Team 7 and we shouldn't leave a team member in danger!"

"I'm in if Naruto is in," Gaara said.

"I'm not leaving you Michiru. Why miss all the fun?" Snowfire Fox said sternly.

"Fine then. If you all get killed it won't be on me," Michiru said heading out the door. Nina watched as the group left and cursed herself, but she couldn't leave Bug alone. Bug stopped Michiru before she headed out and put something in her hand. She closed her hand around it and disappeared into the sunlight. Nina took Bug and made a portal and went though it to go back to their world.

"Come back to us Michiru…" she whispered before they disappeared.

Michiru's POV

Michiru and the group stopped outside the woods and looked into the dense forest. It seems peaceful, but inside was an evil Michiru had been battling for years. The evil in her own heart she always thought to herself. She turned to everyone and saw the determine look in their eyes to win the battle. Michiru was glad to have friends, even if she wasn't going to see them again.

"I don't know what we will find, but keep this in mind. Nero has Sasuke's body but he isn't Sasuke at the moment. I will have to draw Nero out and I trust you guys to get Sasuke out of there. And watch out for Dragon, she is an expert assassin from her world. There is no telling what she can do," Michiru said.

"You let me deal with Dragon," Itachi said. "I can handle her."

"Then our job will be to hold of Nero until you can free Sasuke from his power then," Kakashi said.

"I'll agree to that!" Naruto said.

"My fireballs will stop him!" Snowfire Fox exclaimed.

"Then let's go!" Michiru shouted as they jumped into the trees and quickly went to their destination.

They got to the clearing to find it deserted. It was too quiet to be safe though. The group readied their attacks and waited. Michiru clapped her hands together and readied herself for the spell that would release Sasuke from Nero's grip.

"Don't let Nero get to me… If the spell breaks then we are all fucked since the backfire will kill me," Michiru said. She kneeled to the ground and waited.

It all seems quiet and then the attack began. Daggers and Kunai flew in the air aimed at the group. Naruto put his hands together and made the signs and activated the Kage Bushin no Jutsu. Seven copies of himself appeared and blocked the attacks. Several Sasukes appeared around the clearing with a kunai in each hand.

"So the bitch came at last," said a voice that wasn't Sasuke's, but Nero's. "You can try all the spells you want, but they won't be able to affect me Michiru Silverfayt!"

"I'll be able to affect you bastard!" Itachi yelled, but another dagger appeared out form the forest and Itachi blocked it.

"Your fight is with me Itachi," Dragon said as she jumped into the clearing.

Then the fight started. Kakashi raised his headband so both of his eyes showed. His Sharingan eye went to work in trying to figure out which one was the real Nero. Snowfire Fox started blasting fireballs at Nero and Gaara crushed the copies with the Sabaku Kyuu

"Le pouvoir du Dragon Blanc me vient!

Échangez ma vie pour le pouvoir que vous tenez!

Aidez-moi à libérer une personne dans le besoin!

Démontez l'âme qui n'appartient pas!1" Michiru started to chant as the fight went on.

Nero made more clones appear and fire black energy balls at the group surround Michiru while she was chanting. Gaara moved fast and put him and Michiru in a sand cocoon trying to hold the blasts back as the others avoid them. Naruto tried to gang up on one of the shadow clones only to be catch in one of the energy blasts and slammed into a tree. Kakashi was trapped in a energy trapped that blocked all his attacks and reflected them back on himself. The group was losing and they hoped that Michiru could get the spell done it time.

"Apportez celui qui est mon ombre en arrière dans moi!

Piégez l'obscurité dans mon coeur,

Rejoignez-nous ensemble où nous appartenons!

Écoutez-moi le Dragon Blanc!2"

The spell was almost done… Soon Michiru would set Sasuke free of Nero's hold. She only need one more chant before it worked. She hoped everyone could hold on that long.

Note: The final chapter is coming soon. I think there are two left. Look below for translations for the French. The fight between Itachi and Dagger begins next chapter! R&R!

Translations:

Power of the White Dragon come to me!

Exchange my life for the power that you hold!

Help me free a person in need!

Take apart the soul that doesn't belong!

2 Bring the one who is my shadow back into me!

Trap the darkness in my heart,

Join us together where we both belong!

Listen to me White Dragon!
