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.)
The spell was almost done… Soon Michiru would set Sasuke free of Nero's hold. She only needs one more chant before it worked. She hoped everyone could hold on that long.
Itachi's POV
Itachi readied his sword for Dragon's next attack as she rushed in on him. His Sharingan eyes watched her movement as she came closer and he blocked the dagger that she thrust at him as she jumped back a few feet. She pulled out her katana and went after Itachi again. He sidestepped her attack and brought his sword down at her neck. Dragon rolled out of the way in time and got back up in a fighting stance and stared Itachi down.
"You're getting old Itachi for someone who claims is the strongest ninja of them all. Or maybe Michiru made you too soft," she sneered.
"And all you do is attack. Is that only what the dead think of when they come back to life?" Itachi sneered back.
Dragon growled at the cold murderer as a dark energy ball flew past them. They stared at each other for who knows how long as the fight progressed around them. Another blast went pass and they both charged at each other until their swords clanged together. All they could hear was the swords singing their battle cries above the fighting behind them. Their sword clang against one another and Itachi gained the upper hand. He knocked her sword away from her hand and it flew in the air and was stuck in a tree.
"You are a fool Dragon. Now it's time I show you my real power," he said. His eyes spun as he activated the Mangekyou Sharingan. Dragon felt herself be trap in some kind of other dimension and fell to the ground.
Dragon's POV
She was back in the fields where she died for the second time. She got up from where she was laying and looked around to see if she could find Itachi. The wind felt so real on her face and then the pain hit her. She saw Michiru in front of her with her sword sticking in her stomach.
"Damn you! I will not let you kill me again Michiru!" as she yelled at the illusion in front of her. The Michiru in front of her smiled a cold smile and look at her.
"But sister don't you understand by now. This was your fate as it is mine. Your death will have no meaning to me. I'll be glad when you are dead," Michiru said.She dug in the sword more and pain went up into her body into her brain.
"I won't die… I can't die again… The power will be mine…" Dragon said as she collapsed to the ground. "I'm going to kill you and Itachi…" She felt something kicked her from behind and saw Itachi standing over her.
"You can try, but you cannot hurt me here like I can hurt you dear Dragon," Itachi said with a cold laugh. He waved his hand and kunai flew thru the air and landed all over Dragon's body pinning her to the ground. She looked up at Itachi as she felt her life slip away. "Oh I forgot to mention. If you die here you die in the real world," he said with another laugh. Dragon cursed him with her last breath and let herself sink into the ground and felt her soul being given back to the darkness.
Michiru's POV
The final moment was near. The spell was almost finished. Michiru felt her head clear up as the last of the words came to her mind and out of her mouth. Then the real battle would begin…
"1Ton donner alimente me frapper l'obscurité !
Aider m'épargne l'une que j'aime si cher !
Me permettre de contrecarrer le mal qui menace détruire tout nous aimons !
Le Dragon blanc m'entend !" she cried out.
A white light surround Nero and he screamed as it entered Sasuke's body. Sasuke fell to the ground passed out and out of his body came a wisp of fog trapped by the light in a small ball that was Nero. It shot towards Michiru and entered her body and she screamed from the pain it caused. Her mind went numb as she felt Nero trying to free himself from her. Darkness could not stand the light after all. She could see Kakashi take a hold of Sasuke and ordered everyone away. They left, but one person stayed. Itachi kicked Dragon's body on the ground one more time and tried to rush to Michiru's side before being blocked by a force field.
"Michiru! There is another way! Please don't do this!" he cried out in desperation. "Think about my brother please!" Michiru looked at him a smiled as she felt Nero starting to fight her with his soul.
"Itachi… I have to do this. Tell Sasuke that I love him. You helped me so much. Both of you did. Please go before you get hurt!" Michiru said as she pushed him back further by making the shield grow in size. He tried again but listened to her words and rushed off behind the others. Michiru smiled as she felt her life force ebb away. "You cannot win Nero. You know that I'm about to die. This is my vengeance against all you have done in your lifetime. Goodbye!"
Sasuke's POV
Sasuke opened his eyes just in time to see a white light form from the forest and blinded him as it grew in size then disappeared. He felt someone holding him and saw Itachi holding his hand.
"What are you doing here!" Sasuke yelled at him as he tried to get up, but Itachi held him down.
"I'm just doing a last request little brother. You are lucky I made a promise not to kill you now or you would be dead," Itachi said.
"What do you mean by last request?" Sasuke asked in confusion. "Where is Michiru and the others?"
"The others went back towards the battlefield to see if they could find Michiru," Itachi said, "Nero had a strong will over you and she drew him into herself. The light that you saw was her last attack against the evil. She told me to tell you that she had loved you," Itachi explained.
"What do you mean she had loved me? She is still alive!" Sasuke yelled.
"We will find out when the others return to see dear brother," Itachi said.
Kakashi appeared from the forest and shook his head at Itachi.
"We couldn't find no trace of her. It was like she disappeared," he said.
"Then she is still alive?" Sasuke asked.
"She might have been taken to another world, but for now the fight is over. You need rest Sasuke and the rest of us has to get ready and go where we belong," Snowfire Fox said as she came out of the forest. "The battle has ended. We have won.
Note: One more to go before the story is done. Yes Dragon is dead (again is you read A Life of Adventure… Not!) and she won't be coming back this time. Nero is dead for good so no worries about him. And still no reviews! Grr… Please review. Maybe you can tell me if you think Michiru is dead or not.
1 Give thy power to me to smite the darkness!
Help me save the ones I love so dear!
Let me thwart the evil that threatens to destroy all we love!
White Dragon hear me!
