Chapter 11: Why am I down here?
Okay so Kakashi and Gai are staring at each other in arena. I wonder who's stronger...I bet Kakashi wins this fight.
"Are you ready my rival?"
"Whatever..."
"Begin!" said Ibiki.
Gai ran at Kakashi and punched with his left fist at his face, but Kakashi effortlessly caught it with his right hand. Gai then brought his right leg up to try and ram his foot in kakashi's stomach, but Kakashi jumped back in time for gai to miss and be off balance. He capitalized and jumped forward punching Gai hard in the face.
"ugh!" Gai said as he staggered back.
Kakashi continued on his attack and kicked him in the stomach with his right foot, punched him in the face with a left hook, then a right hook, then a left jab to Gai's nose.
"Argh!" Gai began falling back, blood ripping out his nose.
Kakashi capitalized again by leaping in the air stepping on Gai's face smashing Gai head first into the ground ,while at the same time pushing himself more in the air.
"Uuh..." Gai was laying on the ground in a daze.
When Kakashi reached the peak of his jump he leaned forward in the air so his body was facing Gai's. He made some hand signs then screamed:
"Fire style: Dragon flame jutsu!"
Surprisingly a powerful beam of fire erupted from just in front of his face maske and shot at Gai.
"Wait, wait, hang on a minute." I said."Shouldn't his mask have been burnt through?"
"Shut up Itachi, I'm trying to watch the fight." Hana said.
"First we have computer's and now this? Nothing makes sense anymore." I said ignoring Hana
The fire reached Gai and engulfed him and the area around him.
Kakashi landed about 20 feet in front of The smoke now surrounding Gai.
"Oh no...did I kill him?" Kakashi said horrified with himself.
"YOUR FLAMES BURN QUITE BRIGHT!"
O_o
"Should of known better..."
Gai flew from the smoke at Kakashi at break-neck speed.
"Whoa!" said Kakashi as he barely managed to block roundhouse kick from Gai.
"How did you survive?"
"My flames of youth burn too bright for an attack of that caliber!"
"You substituted with something didn't you?"
Gai blushed at being found out.
"But there is nothing here for you to substitue with, so..."
"WHY THE FUCK AM I DOWN HERE?!"
I stared at Anko-chan out the corner of my eyes. I wanted to ask her on a date, but I don't know how she would respond...What am I talking about? I'm Itachi Badass Uchiha damnit! I'm Fearless!
I stood up straight turned to face her and boldy stated:
"U-um A-Anko-chan, W-would you c-c-consider going on a-a d-d-d-d-date with m-me?"
YEP I HAD THE MOST CONFIDENCE IN THE WORLD!
Anko turned to me and said:
"What I did'nt hear you."
O_o Damn that loud fire jutsu!
"I said-"
So first I was talking to Anko-chan and the next thing I knew I was laying down on the ground with a giant beam of Fire heading straight torward me!
"OH, SHIT!" I rolled to the side in a desparate attempt to keep from being burnt. Thank Kami, it worked. My clothes were still singed though.
I sat up and looked in front of and Who do I find? Kakashi and Gai struggling for power.
It is at this time I realize I had just been used as a substitution. So, I calmly asked them.
"WHY THE FUCK AM I DOWN HERE?!"
"Gai what the hell?" Kakashi siad pushing Gai's foot off of him.
"Sorry, I-I panicked."
"PANICKED?! YOU UNYOUTHFUL SON OF A BITCH! I'M GONNA BURN YOUR EYE-BROWS OFF AND MAKE YOU EAT THEM!"
Gai paled at the word unyouthful.
"NO SUBSTITUTING WITH THE OTHER CANDIDATES!" Ibiki yelled at Gai.
"Just wait till my match..." I said glaring at Gai. "Just you wait." I started walking back up the stairs. As I passed everyone else I heard snickers and laughter from the other ninja.
"Hahaha!"
"Only a kid would let that happen."
"I told you he was a baby."
"(COUGH) loser (COUGH)."
O_o I'm going to forget I heard that last one. I saw Shisui look at me sadly from across the arena on the balcony on the other side.
"Are you okay Itachi?" Anko asked me with pure care in her voice.
"Yeah even I felt that was a bit harsh." Hana said.
"Yeah I'm okay..."
"You sure?"
Why the hell are they pushing the issue. IM FINE!
"I said-"
"WINNER: KAKASHI HATAKE!" Ibiki announced.
''What-what happened?" I said.
On the other side of us was Kurenai and her team.
"Apparently." Kurenai started. "Gai felt so bad that you almost got hurt that he got distracted. Kakashi took advantage of this used his head hunter jutsu."
Wow Gai felt so bad that it cost him to lose? Wow he must be a good guy then...I just might feel bad while i'm ripping those giant black bushes off his face...might
Ibiki pointed at the screen.
COMPUTER:
Anko Mitarashi vs. Kurenai Yuhi.
OMG OMG OMG ANOTHER GIRL FIGHT! AND THIS TIME IT'S BETWEEN THE BEAUTIFUL KUNOICHI KURENAI AND ANKO-CHAN! I SOOOO GOTTA SEE THIS WITH THE SHARINGAN!
"Are you ready, Anko?"
"No Kurenai, the question is are you?"
"BEGIN!" Screamed Ibiki as he leapt back.
Kurenai jumped back and threw a kunai at Anko. Anko took out her own Kunai and blocked with it then ran at Kurenai and stabbed the kunai at her stomach. At the last moment Kurenai grabbed Anko's wrist and twisted causing her to drop her weapon then jammed her right heel in Anko's solar plexes.
"Urgh!" Anko skidded back 10 feet holding her stomach.
"Got you!" Kurenai said as she made some handsigns.
Anko tensed.
Surprising to all, Anko shimmered away from sight.
"What the hell?"
"That's some impressive Genjutsu your teammate has their Gai." I said to Gai, who as standing next to us with their other teammate.
"That's her specialty Itachi, such as yours but I think she is better with Genjutsu than you." Gai said to me.
Seriously...He thinks someone else is better with Genjutsu than an Uchiha? Or more important...ME?!
"I highly doubt that." I said smirking.
"Really Itachi, Your flames of youth don't burn quite as bright as hers."
...No comment.
Anko found herself wrappe dwith her back against a tree that seemingly came from nowhere.
"Damn how did I let a tree sneak up on me? They can't even move!" She said.
"Maybe you just suck that bad."
This voice came from inside of the tree. Anko looked up and sure enough he saw Kurenai's upper body protruding from the tree with a kunai in hand.
"Time to end it!" screamed Kurenai plunging the kunai at Anko's head.
Suddenly Anko disappeared.
"What?" Kurenai said.
Then even more surprisngly the tree sunk in the ground, Kurenai along with it.
"What is this?"
Kurenai's head was sticking out the ground and Anko was standing over her.
"Please Kurenai, I'm on a team with an Uchiha, and even more importantly that Uchiha is Itachi of all people."
Anko is so badass.
"Don't underestimate Itachi Gai." Kakashi said from Hana's and my other side.
"That's incredible Anko." Kurenai said. "You reflected my genjutsu back on me then used Head hunter jutsu."
Anko grinned.
"But I'm more experienced though."
Anko tensed. Kurenai exploded from the ground and lunged at Anko with a kunai in hand.
"Where do you get these Kunai's from princess?!" Anko said jumping back.
"Helloooooooooooo, my name almost sounds like Kunai."
"..."
"..."
"THAT MAKES NO SENSE!"
Kurenai slashed at Anko. Anko jumped back again.
"URGH!"
Anko didn't know what happen. She dodged the slash from Kurenai so why did she spit up blood.
"You didn't check your surroundings"
Anko turned her head to look behind her and sure enough she spotted Kurenai stabbing her in the back.
"looks like Kurenai won." Asuma said.
"Don't underestimate Anko-chan, smokie." I said to him.
"Smokie?"
"So you attacking me head on was a genjutsu as well huh?" Anko said.
"Perceptive but too late." Kurenai taunted.
"You're never too late." With that said Anko bursted in a bunch of purple snakes.
"WHAT THE HELL?!" Kurenai eloquently said.
"You need to look underneath the underneath Kurenai."
Kurenai Turned around and came face to face with Anko's palm, with her sleeves hanging loose since the shirt was kinda big for her.
"SHADOW SNAKE!"
A bunch of snakes emerged from Anko's sleeve and engulfed Kurenai's whole body. She screamed but it was muffled.
"Wow... I was not expecting that." Hana said.
"Thats Anko-chan for you, unpredictable as ever." I said.
"I take back what I said." said Gai.
I turned to gai.
"That's right back. It's unyouthful to make assumptions."
O_o
"Winner: Anko Mitarashi!" Ibiki said.
"The next fight is..."
He points at the computer screen
COMPUTER:
Itachi Uchiha vs. Yamato
OMG FINALLY I GET MY TURN! I'ma wipe the flloor with that Yamato guy!
"Good luck Itachi-kun!" said Hana to me
Hana's been so nice to me and...why is Anko-chan glaring at Hana?
Whatever I need to get down those stairs. I plan in making a big entrance. SO I jumped...off the railing and landed gracefully in the center of the arena.
"Show off."
I heard this in front of me. It's that noob that is trying to be like the second hokage with his wannabe helmet!
"Hmph, Ibiki-san you might as well call this match off, Itachi's clearly outclassed."
I twitched.
"He's just scared cause he doesn't wanna fight me." I said in retaliation.
"So you're not going to quit? Fine have it your way."
"Itachi Uchiha vs. Yamato, BEGIN!" Ibiki said as he jumped out of sight.
"I'll end this quickly." Yamato said as he tried to rush me and catch me off guard.
He punched at my face but I ducked in the nick of time. He then tried to follow up with a knee strike to my head. But I crouched even lower getting on all fours to dodge his knee.
"Gotchu now!" He said as he lifted the same leg he tried to knee me with, and prepared for an axe kick.
I threw my self backwards as his foot plowed through the ground where I once was.
"I'll give it you, you're pretty fast...for an Uchiha."
I stood up from my crouched positiion and faced him.
"You don't even know the half of it."
Then I got into the Uchiha clan's famous hard fist stance.
"Bring it." I said.
Yamato fazed out of sight.
"Damn he's fast." I said.
Suddenly My Badass senses were tingling. They were telling me something was gonna make me less badass.
"HA!"
I barely managed to block a hard punch coming from straight in front of me. Yamato may be a noob wannanbe...but he's a fast noob wannabe.
He followed up and kicked me in the stomach to fast for me to block. I staggered back and he rushed in and hit me with a right hook, then a left hook, then a right uppercut. I flipped backwards and felled on my stomach.
"I knew letting Uchiha scum in the exams was a waste of time." Yamato said.
I staggered back up.
"Shut up."
"Itachi you know you can't defeat me. It's your fate to lose."
"I said shut up you dick."
I had my head down so he could not see my eyes.
"What's the matter are you getting angry? Show me your power Itachi. The Uchiha clan thinks they're so strong and I want to witness you're strength for myself. You know the rumors don't you?"
Up in the balcony with the hokage.
"Does Yamato suspect what I think he does?" Asked the third Hokage.
"I think he does, Lord Hokage." said Sakumo hatake.
"This is most troubling." said a guy about Sakumo's age. He had brown hair in a ponytail shaped like a pineapple.
"Indeed Shikaku." said the hokage.
"And even more because Yamato has the power of the Senju."
Shikaku's gasped.
"You mean he's THAT child?"
"Yes Shikaku." Sakumo answered.
"What rumors?" I asked.
"The rumors about what happened 4 years ago when the Kyuubi attacked."
I looked confused.
"What about it?"
"You know the tailed beast are virtually indestructible right?"
"Yeah..." I said clearly confused on where he was going.
"But they can also be summoned."
My eyes went wide. Could someone be that powerful to summon the kyuubi?
"And it is a known fact that the Kyuubi could only be controlled by a sharingan."
I blinked. So the Kyuubi could be controlled by the Sharingan... and it could be summoned...where is he going with this?!
"Therefore Rumors have started about the Uchiha being the ones responsible for the Kyuubi's attack."
Now I lost it. My eyes went wide with terror. I started trembling. Everything made sense now. Why people were indifferent torward the Uchiha. WHy people were openly hostile torward us. Why my clan didn't like socializing with anyone else but themselves. It all came together!
"When the village was first formed it is said that Madara Uchiha battled Hashirama Senju for title of Hokage. Madara summoned the Kyuubi, but he didn't count on The senju being able to tame the Kyuubi aswell."
"But wait if the Senju can control the Kyuubi, how come you don't think they attacked the village?" I said pointing that fact out.
"The Senju were a kind people and the first hokage is proof of that. Plus...there is only one more Senju left and she does not have her bloodline."
"So you think the Uchiha did it?"
He nods.
"But we didn't."
"Say what you will but you will lose. It is fated." He said clasping his hands together.
All of a sudden a giant tree shot out the ground underneath me.
"WHAT THE F-"
My pervert killing was cut off because Now I was in the top of the giant tree. The top branches were pushed against the ceiling and from the ceiling to the floor was about 60 feet. I was caught in the top of the tree with branches restricting my movement visible to everyone in the room.
Yamato was standing on a branched that raised from underneath him way up to my eye level.
"Hashirama Senju had a blood line called Mokuton. The ability to freely grow trees, and wood and manipulate them how he wanted."
My eyes widened in shock.
"Are you a Senju?" I asked him.
"No...This ability was implanted in me when I was a baby... by Orochimaru."
Now that really slapped me in the face.
"And you're an Uchiha. It is fated you lose to me because I have the power of mokuton. You can not win. Accept your place beneath my feet."
I was trembling with rage. My head hung low so my eyes were not visible.
"Who do you think you are?" I said in a low voice.
"Do you know how it feels to be hated by something you don't understand? Do you know true pain? The pain being ostricized without the knowledge of why?"
"Can't say I do Uchiha scum."
"You feel as though you are above me, because of your Mokuton abilities. And yet, it's not even your birth right. You don't deserve it. You're a wannabe" I said smirking
I have this feeling in my body and I don't know what it is. I feel like I want to destroy Yamato, rip him apart, make him suffer. He does'nt know my pain, Urgh...My head...
"I will win because unlike you My bloodline is my birth right."
My head shot up and I looked at him. Sharingan blazing bright red with the three tomoe. Although I felt the tomoe shifting...
"I assume you will not quit?" Yamato said.
"No"
"SO be it. Today you will die."
He raised his hand.
"Before that I want to show you something."
I don't know why I said this, The voice in my head told me too.
He paused as his hand was in the air.
"The pain...the pain that I felt...I -I want to share it with you...FEEL MY PAIN!"
My left eye was hurting like fuck! But even in the pain I felt power rush through my left eye. The voice in my head whispered something to me...What was it...
"TSUKIYOMI!" I shouted looking dead in Yamato's eyes with my painful left eye.
"What a battle..." Kakashi said in awe.
"Yamato has him on the ropes." Kurenai said.
"Wow...I don't think I can kick his ass anymore." Iruka said.
"Ditto" Kotetsu and Izumo said in unison.
Yugao was awe struck...
Hayate and Genman were awe struck...Hayate was coughing.
Yamato's body went frighteningly still.
Up on the hokage's balcony.
"Dear lord...what happened in that forest?" asked Hiruzen.
Please review...or even longer to update
