"I'm going to launch tornadoes at them to keep at least the preta path busy but force the others to scatter as he tries for each one." He stopped his plan, the animal path summoned a Cerberus. "I got the same summons you know!" Sean planted his hand on the ground to summon the same beast as her. "Use long range attacks, don't get close to the center or else we'll be blasted."

"Sage art; demonic claws." The claws on Miri's hand extended out. "Got it."

"Wind style; tornado scatter" Sean waved his hands as he blew out. A alley of tornadoes took control of the area and spun over to the Pains. "Thunder style; thunder clones!" Sean's arms was wrapped with lightning and shocked out small figures that rushed behind each tornado.

Sean's eye switched to the sharingan and opened a portal in front of him to jump through. With her partner gone, Miri fought alone with Sean's trap.

"Spirit style;spirit clones." Miri surrounded herself with a dozen clones. "I ain't got enough long range attacks. I'm sorry Sean." Miri ran toward the attack despite Sean's direct order.

The preta path was in control and defended against the jutsus Miri and Sean launched at them. Miri jumped on the barrier with her claw out in front. She lashed down with no effect. Her eyes met with the asura path's rocket launcher head. She only had a few second window to dodge. A portal formed in front of Miri and stopped her escape. Sean jumped through and sent the rocket through the portal. Sean pulled his sword out from the ground and chucked into the back of the head of the preta path. The barrier the preta path created instantly extinguished. This allowed Miri to rush in and slash her claws into his face.

Sean stopped and ran back for Miri, his summon's eyes saw the Cerberus the animal path created attack Miri. He grabbed on her arms and yanked her towards him just as the Cerberus bit down.

"White lightning; white bolt." Sean held out his arm and sent a invisible bolt of lightning through both of the cerberus's heads.

Miri was faced against the smile of the asura path. "Sage art; hell ball." Miri formed the ghostly ball in her hand. The path in response tore off his coat to reveal his structure, six arms and three faces.

Miri formed the entire size of her jutsu and ran for the path. Sean only turned around to shout her name. The asura path opened its back and launched a missile for her. Miri looked back and now noticed the human path behind her. He grabbed the back of her hand and yanked out a small part of her spirit. Her jutsu shrunk till it full disappeared. With no defenses, the missile struck Miri and exploded upon impact. Sean was sent back with the shockwave. He recuperated fast and attempted to run forward as his body continued to shove him back.

"Wind style; wind arrow." He formed a bow and arrow in his hands and shot out a quick arrow into the smoke. He didn't hear a response. "Did I miss?" Sean's eye switched over to the Byakugan. He slowly blew out the air he had. "She's still alive."

The smoke cleared. A piece of Miri's shoulder was missing with a few cuts. She didn't move, her hand was lodged deep into the asura path's chest cavity. With a shaky arm, she was able to rip it out. She chest pounded. Her entire hand burned red with popped blisters. The wings on Miri's back started to fade out, along with Sean.

"Get to your clone!" Sean yelled.

Miri turned her head behind to face Sean. "I can't move."

Sean's eye switched to his moygenko sharingan. "Kumai!" A portal appeared in front of Miri.

Sean pulled another arrow and launched it into Miri. The force struck and pushed her through. Sean faced the two clones Miri had up. The portal opened up behind one and dropped Miri into it. Her wings instantly grew back along with her will. Miri curled her fingers in the dirt and got up.

"Three down. Three to go." Miri rubbed the blood from her chin.

"Wind style; ultimate storm!"

The bright sky was quickly covered in a rotating formation of clouds. Thunderstruck everyone's ears, the winds picked up, a open center in the clouds formed. Sean's ultimate weather jutsu was in effect. The first bolt cracked through the ground near the animal path.

Sean jumped to the bolt and appeared in front of her as the yellow flashed out of her eyes. "White lightning!"

Sean's arm was slashed back before his strike landed. He faced down a large saw blade that led from his hand to the asura path.

"Summoning jutsu!"

The summon was below Sean's feet. The massive animal blasted through the smoke and lifted him directly into the storm. A large bird carried him but was barely able to do so, the strong winds took advantage of the creature and twirled it through the clouds. Sean pried his one arm free and reached back down to the ground. One of his swords flew directly in his hand and used it to slash at the foot to free his other.

Meanwhile, Miri ran through the smoke the summon created and dug her fingers into the animal path's hair. Miri noticed the storm pick up in strength, large pieces of rubble flew around the area. She watched one piece that slowly edged closer to him. She waited for the giant broken pillar to get behind her. She flapped her wings and tossed her and herself back to the pillar. Miri twisted her body and rammed the path's face into the stone. The amount of force she applied smashed it into two pieces. Miri grabbed one of the shards and drove it into her left eye.

"Sage art; Devil's chains!" She quickly wrapped the burning chain around her throat and pinned it against the rock.

Miri focused back on the group and jumped back into the last three.

Sean landed back from the group. Miri landed ahead of him but jumped back to his side. "Protect me." Sean demanded. He lifted his hands into the air. Two tunnels formed in the air and traveled around his arms.

Miri could tell Pain realized the jutsu Sean tried to perform. The asura path took stance with all of his arms opened and pointed to Sean. Pain stood right behind the path with both hands pointed straight.

"Just a little bit longer Miri!" Sean sucked in the weather at a faster rate, and more and more of the sky cleared.

"All mighty push." Pains jutsu went off just as every missile the asura path could launch.

Miri felt the subsonic speed missiles slowed down to the pace of a turtle. She focused deep in her chakra and expanded out a wall of clones. With each one her chakra drained expedientailly. She was forced to drop down to one knee. The missiles got closer to her clones, she wanted to close her eyes but couldn't. She would never forget the first missile collide with her clone.

"Forbidden art; ultimate storm missile!"

Miri's mind returned to speed just as the largest explosion she encountered went off. It only took a few moments for the entire battle scene to be covered in a thick layer of smoke and dust.
