They did make it to the front gates of the Hidden Leaf village by the cover of night. Signs of a fight took place at the entrance. The one trail was split in half with a giant crater down the split. Rock spikes were scattered around the set. But for the first time they left the village rightfully and came back no one opened the gate for them. No one specifically said anything about someone will open the gate upon their arrival but they assumed something would be there for them. Not a single light was on in the village, even the night most lights are turned off but at least the city streets were on and the late night shops. A large barrier surrounded the entire village.

"Miri, you know what to do." Sean said.

Miri was already through part of her hand signs. "Already on it." She finished. "Spirit jutsu; spirit body." Her body became nearly translucent. She pressed on the gate but didn't go through as she hoped. She put pressure on her push but to no avail. "It's no use. Hoped to save a little chakra from this but Sean."

"Already on it." He mimicked. Miri's face went smug, she didn't feel any hate from it but saw it as a big brother mocking his little sister.

Sean pulled another needle from his strap. "You sure you need that?" Amari asked. Orochimaru's words of unregulated doses went through her mind.

"Miri couldn't even get a hand through, this is a very strong barrier. I don't think I can even break it." His hands started at a single point above his head. He stretched his arms diagonally down to the ground of the barrier. "Hidden jutsu wind style; barrier pathway." The inside of the drawn out shape shattered and a strong wind current pressed against the edges. "Run in!"

Amari and Miri ran inside the barrier. They both turned to him, he was still in the same position as when they ran. "Forgot you can't move." Amari reached for Sean's shoulders and yanked him inside the barrier. His feet dug through the ground as she pulled.

The moment Sean saw his feet pass through the barrier he released his jutsu. The wind released from the edges of the opening and the barrier gained back its lost part. "Good thing you didn't completely forget about me." Sean awkwardly laughed it off.

"I'm sorry, it's been a long time since we've encountered a barrier jutsu. I just don't remember all the little things about your jutsus, like how this one turns your body into basically stone and immobile." Amari playfully punched his arm.

"Okay pouting aside, lets look what's going above the walls." Miri clapped her hands as she talked.

"Wow, never thought I'd see my sister so leading."

Miri growled before she screamed and ran up the walls. The action placed the other two in shock before they ran up after her. The scene inside the wall was like a horror play right before their eyes. The ground was uneven and completely destroyed. A swarm of villagers whose skin was gray and purple with solid white eyes attacked the shinobi of the leaf. Sean clenched his fist, he wanted to use his tornado scatter jutsu but the chances of friendly fire were too high for his likeness.

"Couldn't we just use a combined shockwave again and send waves after these guys?" Amari asked.

"No, that jutsu was a once thing. The sharingan isn't implanted in my eye enough. The jutsu's I used, I completely forgot how to use." Sean twisted his headband to his Tozoto. "Take a sword, we'll get in close and conserve chakra unless necessary."

Amari and Miri pulled a sword from Sean's back. They both jumped from the rooftop into the heat of battle. Sean connected the two ends of his sword and stretched it out with the connection of chakra. "Family wind style; wind arrow." A quiver grew on his back with a set of arrows. He pulled out three and necked them in. He pulled them back and shot them out into the crowd. Miri looked back at the strike. She sliced one of the arrows and made the one strike into two.

A man grabbed hold of Amari's shirt and pulled her to him. He had a toothpick in his mouth and his bandana covered his entire head. "Who are you and how'd you get in?" he yelled.

Amari slapped the hand off of her. "We're the fucking backup asshole. You saved us from Orochimaru and we're saving you."

"Oh you're them. We don't know anything that's really going on."

Amari flew back to them. "Obviously. Spirit style; hidden figure." A black figure grew from her body and stood next to her. He mimicked her hand sign. "Spirit style; spirit clones." A large set of black and purple clones surrounded around her area. All of them carried the same sword as her. "I know Sean didn't want us to use our chakra but right this seems best."

Sean landed in front of Miri. "You don't listen at all." He pulled more arrows from his quiver and shot at a few of the oncoming walkers. "It's too late to stop you now. Do whatever it takes to keep them away."

Miri's clones spread out around the area. After each clone that attacked the zombies, they shattered away but always came back in larger numbers. Amari watched several of the zombies take control of one of the shinobi. Her eyes went up, she debated what to do. A simple strike would not do, and a jutsu could hurt him.

"Earth style; boulder strike." She pounded her feet on the ground and caught hold to the rubble with her arms. She chucked the rocks forward and sprinted after. The top few dead were knocked off and destroyed. She flipped over the man and grabbed his green vest in the process. She pulled him from the ground and the few that still held onto him. His head whipped harshly around when Amari landed. "Be happy you're alive."

"Thank you for saving me." He groaned. Amari reached in his vest and pulled a kunai. She proceeded to wrap the blade grip in his hand and look him straight in the eye. "Right."

Amari didn't notice one of the dead grab her forearm. Her fist quickly jabbed at it and killed it. One of Miri's clone slid in Amari's view and tossed its sword past her neck. She turned in time to see the blade impale another one. Amari's eyes wandered for Miri's, when they did Miri just brushed her finger on her temple and flicked it forward. She gave along a look of 'I told you so' and continued her own beat down to the dead walkers.

Miri's clones kept a close circle around her. Miri's clone held themselves against the few that would press on one at a time. A simple sword attack against two or three would be easily killed. The horde drove in at waves at a time, up to two clones smoked off. Miri's clones didn't die easily but the endless and timeless walkers overwhelmed them. The dozen of clones that appeared at the start dwindled down to four plus the original black clone.

Sean noticed his team's defenses collapse under the weight of the horde. He stretched out the connection between his swords and twirled the two blades around against the onslaught of walkers. The walkers seemed to gain attention to him and target him specifically. His twirlin' blades wiped out the initial waves. More and more joined in around him, right after his blade past one side the side doubled in numbers. Sean slammed his sword into ground across from him.

"Family wind style; underground wind system." Sean pressed his fists on the ground. A blast from both of his palms ejected into the ground. Inside the wind darted around the ground, quickly created paths in the ground and jumped out at random points to the surface. "Wind style, kinetic wind!" His palms sent a long lash of wind through the holes. The wind went through the surface holes into the dead that went past them. "Kinetic wind!" He sent another wind shot around the ends of his blades.

He created himself a perfect barrier around the horde the chased him. The only weakness in his strategy was the stream of chakra he has to release. His eye caught a different sight from the constant ones. His eyes witness a woman with long blonde hair that covered half her face. Her small purple clothes blended into the ground but her light skin and bright hair stood out. She ran right for him. He couldn't promise her safety from his defense. He had to end it, both of them. He pulled the blade from the ground, sent one end into the wall behind him and held the other end. He yanked on the connection and pulled it in tight. He launched from the horde over to the woman. He grabbed her waist and pulled her with him. He landed on Miri's position.

"So your Sakura's boy toy." The blonde giggled. "You know you could do a lot better than her, like me."

"What the hell is a boy toy!" Sean yelled at her."

"A boy toy is a boy for sex!" Miri laughed.

"New strategy." Sean jumped from the circle over to a different Shinobi group. "Hey you with the bandana."

"What is it?" The man flipped one of the walkers over and stabbed it.

"Get everyone to smash as much of the ground as possible. I have a way to buy us time. But I'll be on the ground from it!"

"You seemed to be able to fight strong with your chakra. Choji, Kiba, attack the ground and create as much large debris as possible."

"On it, human boulder!" Choji went off to expand himself into a giant ball and rolled around the ground.

"Come on Akamaru, we got a job. Fang over fang!" the two barrel rolled the ground.

"Now's your chance." The man with the tooth pick nodded at Sean.

"Wind style; multi tornado scatter." Sean circled his arms in front of him and launched served tornado after tornado from him. Each storm driven creation lifted the rubble the trio and the battle created. The series of tornados scattered the rubble into powerful and deadly strikes into the zombie horde. Many took notice the scene and ran from the path. A few didn't and were struck while too distracted in combat. Sean lost control of his arms first, they dropped to his side. Then his eyes rolled to the back of his head. Finally he toppled over to the side.
