Chapter 22

Tsunade looked in horror as Akira shoved his elbow into Sasuke's stomach making the Uchiha lean forward where a fist was waiting for him sending Sasuke into the air and crashing on the roof 2 buildings away. Akira saw Sasuke get up with several black fire marks covering his face.

"Already using the curse seal huh?" Naruto heard Akira say. "2 can play at that game!" Akira screamed in rage and was consumed in a thin black aura that came from his own curse seal on his arm. Akira jumped several buildings and landed right next to Sasuke making a small crater.

Sasuke activated his sharingan before punching Akira who landed on the ground but in the process tripped the Uchiha and kicked him while they were both down making both teenagers split apart. Akira quickly flipped back onto his feet and faced Sasuke who had also recovered. Akira attempted to hit Sasuke but his attack was blocked and countered when Sasuke kicked Akira in the stomach but Akira stood his ground and struck Sasuke right back.

"Naruto must have told him about my sharingan…" thought Sasuke.

"Stop it both of you!" shouted Tsunade but the boys were too far away to hear her as they continued to hit each other. "We have to stop them…"

"Not even I'm stupid enough to go in the middle of that Oba-chan…" said Naruto. Tsunade was angered when he called her old. The hokage quickly grabbed Naruto's collar and punched him hard on the face making everyone stare in horror. Tsunade then began to shake the boy hard making his head go back and forth.

Akira quickly flipped backwards and struck Sasuke in the head sending him into the air. The raven haired boy flew up into the air and began to pummel Sasuke who tried to block the barrage of punches coming his way but they were in vain. Suddenly Sasuke blocked Akira's attack but was struck from behind making the boy land on another roof.

"What the hell!" thought Sasuke. "Two of him! Kage Bunshin?" Right in front of Sasuke were 2 Akira's but Sasuke cough up some blood as he massaged the attack from behind. "Felt like someone smashed a boulder into my back…I guess I'll have to step it up a notch! I still need to talk to that bitch about information regarding my brother!"

Sasuke gritted his teeth as he let his 2nd stage of his curse seal take over and change his appearance while Akira made his black aura grow even more…

"I'll just keep hitting him until he doesn't have any chakra left…" thought Akira.
"Katon Inferuno!" (Inferno) shouted Sasuke.

"Suiton Suijin heki!" (water barrier.) shouted Akira. A huge barrier of water soon came out and blocked the fire jutsu blowing smoke everywhere.

Sasuke looked around when he felt pain in his left rib cage as a hand from Akira's earth elemental slammed right into it making him yell out in pain. The Uchiha was then kicked in his right jaw making him stumble back by yet another earth elemental. But Sasuke quickly ran over to one of Akira's bunshins and kicked the head right off before jumping onto the second on and cracking its neck making both elementals sink into the group destroyed.

"Kage bunshin no jutsu!" (Shadow replication) Shouted Sasuke making 10 clones appear behind him.

Akira and his newly made earth bunshin got into their fighting stance while 8 Sasuke's ran towards him while the remaining 3 Sasuke's performed several seal's.

"He's insane!" said Naruto who had just recovered. "Doesn't he see all of the people behind Akira!"

Akira also just noticed that several people including children watching the fight between him and Sasuke.

"Shit…" said Akira kicking a kage bunshin making it disappear while his earth bunshin punched and kicked at the others. "He's just buying himself time!" All 3 Sasuke's soon finished his seals and aimed them at Akira so blinded by his rage that he didn't noticed the people behind the teenager.

"Katon Ryuuka no jutsu!" (Dragon fire)

"Katon Housenka no justu!"

"Katon Inferuno! (Inferno)

"Damnit!" cursed Akira. He knew the people behind him would never survive those attacks. His earth elemental soon took the Dragon fire blast melting it but still nullified the jutsu while the real Akira began to swipe at the fireballs destroying them instantly

"Suiton Suiyuudan no jutsu! (Water dragon no jutsu) shouted Tsunade.

A huge water dragon soon swept down at the teenagers and struck the line of fire nullifying that jutsu as well. Akira quickly kicked a fireball before turning around. He quickly threw 2 people out of the way and picked up 2 children and was about to jump away when he screamed in pain when a fireball struck his back. Akira gritted his teeth and took the pain before jumping high into the air. The remaining fireballs were soon blocked by Rock Lee who struck some of them down and Naruto who finished off the remainders of the fire jutsu. Akira landed on the roof when he was face to face with Sasuke. Akira who had both of his hands full was punched into the face and then grabbed on both sides of the head while Sasuke closed his eyes and slowly opened them surprising Itachi greatly who was watching from a distance.

"SO he has finally acquired it…" thought Itachi.

"Mangekyou sharingan.(Advanced Sharingan) " Said Sasuke and opened his eyes looking directly into Akira.

"Shit don't look!" Shouted Kakashi who just arrived but it was too late for Akira dropped both kids and became still. Neji went up to the crying children and jumped off the roof handing them to their parents who hugged them tightly. "I didn't know he had the mangekyou sharingan Hokage-sama…"

"Neither did I…" she said waiting for something to happen.

"Akira!" shouted Naruto who went up to both teenagers… He was afraid of what would happen to his best friend knowing the destructive power of the sharingan dou-jutsu.

Scene change

Akira was calm although there was a red moon above him and Sasuke and the teenager was also tied up to a large cross. Sasuke smiled and held a sword.

"About time I got you…" said Sasuke. "You really thought a weakling like you could beat me?"

"That's why you have that swollen eye right?" asked Akira. "I can't believe I missed the part when Naruto put you down like a dog…" Sasuke's eyes widened in anger as he shoved the sword into Akira's stomach but was surprised when he got no reaction but he knew it hurt for Akira gritted his teeth making him smile.

"Well it seems I have the upper hand…" said Sasuke. "Looks like your all talk in here… 3 day's of torture is going to be fun… I remember it took me a while to gain the mangekyou… And looks like it paid off…" A screen like image soon appeared in front of Akira who guess it was Sasuke's thoughts.

Flashback

Sasuke was walking in semi busy street of the sound village with his partner Kazuya.

They had both been partners for the past year and had actually grown a strong friendship for they saved each other's lives countless times.

"Hey Sasuke how are your lessons with Orochimaru going?" asked Kazuya.

"He's being more and more strict everyday day. But I'm gaining more power so that's all that matters to me." Replied Sasuke looking around.

"I hear that leaf nin's have been patrolling our boarders lately… Looking for you…" said Kazuya. Sasuke looked at his friend and then looked forward where 2 elite sound nin's appeared.

"Orochimaru-sama wishes to see you both." Both ninja's nodded and went into the Sennin's lair where he was waiting.

"I want both of you to go south here and gather information on a leaf squad that is stationed there." Said Orochimaru. "Find out as much information as you can and get back to me. Don't fail me on this… I want to know why they are moving so aggressively here…" They both nodded and disappeared.

The next morning Sasuke and Kazuya were watching the road as 4 leaf jounin's walked towards them slowly. Sasuke's eyes widened when he saw who they were. The first leaf ninja he recognized was his very own teacher Kakashi, second was Neji, the third was Genma and the last one was Sakura!

"Damn… Why is the hokage sending such powerful ninja's on a scouting mission?" wondered Sasuke out loud.

"Maybe it's a raid…" said Kazuya. Sasuke nodded knowing that the only possible explanation.

"Found you…" said a voice making both sound nin's eyes widen. They turned around to see Shikamaru and Rock Lee looking down at them. Sasuke was about to jump at them when he suddenly found that he couldn't move!

"Sasuke…" said Kakashi who had just appeared. "You're coming with us…"

"I don't think so Kakashi…" said Sasuke.

Suddenly several kunai's flew towards Shikamaru who quickly released his shadow bind on the sound nin's so that he could evade the weapons. Suddenly 2 Sasuke's appeared from their hiding spots. Lee quickly vanished and kicked both of them making 2 clouds of smoke.

"He's gotten smarter having Kage bunshin's watch his back." Thought Kakashi.

Sasuke quickly tired to kick Neji who easily blocked it and was about to counter attack when Kazuya got a hold of Neji's hand and threw him onto the floor. Kakashi went in between both ninja's and kicked them away before Neji could be harmed.

"Sasuke-kun please come back with us!" cried Sakura.

"Oh give it up already…" said Sasuke who had just dodged Shikamaru's kick and struck him right back in the chin making the shadow user grunt in pain. Rock Lee soon jumped into the battle and struck Sasuke in the chest so hard that the Uchiha actually coughed up a little bit of blood and flew away. Sasuke quickly performed several seals.

"Doton Doryou Dango! (Mud cannonball)

Lee's eyes widened when he had to go on the defensive and dodge the powerful projectiles when he was struck several times knocking him onto the floor with about 6 more mud ball's headed straight for him.

"Lee-kun!" shouted Sakura. She quickly picked up a boulder half her size and threw it at the mud ball's making them all useless.

"You've gotten stronger Sakura…" said Sasuke from behind her…

The Uchiha was about to hit her when Genma threw his hand back and kicked him before throwing a shirkien at the boy.

"Kage Shiriken no jutsu!" (shirkien shadow replication.) There were soon at least 40 shiriken's headed for Sasuke who blocked several of them with his kunai.

Kazuya on the other hand was having a much harder time fighting off Kakashi and Neji.

Kakashi had just thrown a kunai at Kazuya who easily dodged the project tile while throwing his own at the copy ninja who also dodged but when Kazuya turned around he was faced with white eyes as Neji struck the sound nin 5 times closing his major chakra holes making Kazuya cough up some blood. The sound nin quickly kicked Neji back and jumped backwards only to meet the copy ninja who shoved his kunai deep into Kazuya's stomach making him scream out in pain. Sasuke looked at his comrade get beaten and quickly bit his thumb.

"Ninpo Kuchiyose no jutsu!" (summoning technique) shouted Sasuke. A huge snake suddenly appeared and slammed the ground causing dust to fly everywhere. By the time the smoke cleared Kakashi only saw his comrades around and a medium sized snake in front of them…

"Sasuke…" coughed out Kazuya. "I'm sorry."

"There's nothing to be sorry about…" said Sasuke wrapping Kazuya's stomach. "Those ninja's are probably going to be the best in the village soon…"

"Now what?" asked Kazuya weakly. "I don't think I can move…" Sasuke was about to pick the sound nin up when a idea came up to him…

"I can't forget my objective…" thought Sasuke. "I'm here to gain more power to defeat my brother… He has the mangekyou something that I don't! But not for long… My brother killed his friend to acquire the Mangekyou. In order for me to gain that power I have to do it too… But was it this hard for my brother as well?"

Kazuya looked at his friend who was staring off into space.

"Sasuke…" he said softly. "What is it? Do you sense-"

"I'm sorry…" said Sasuke quietly before taking out his kunai and slicing his friend's head off killing him instantly and without any pain.

Sasuke waited until suddenly he felt a huge surge of pain in his head making him grunt in pain and fall onto the floor. Sasuke suddenly had the urge to activate his sharingan. Once activated he didn't feel any different but he knew… He had just gained one of the most powerful moves in the Uchiha clan… The one that everyone feared…

Sasuke was walking down a dark hallway towards Orochimaru's room ready to tell his master what he had acquired. He wanted Orochimaru to give him even more power and teach him his best jutsu's… He soon arrived at the door and was about to open it when he heard voices coming within the room. They sounded like Kabuto and Orochimaru.

"So when do you think Sasuke will be ready?" asked Kabuto.

"Very soon maybe in a few days…" said Orochimaru.

"I can already defeat my brother?" thought Sasuke. "Orochimaru would know since he was in the same organization as my brother…"

"How are you feeling Orochimaru-sama?" Asked Kabuto.

"Weak… I need Sasuke-kun's body now…" snarled Orochimaru. Sasuke was shocked by this. "I have waited too many years." Sasuke's eyes widened when suddenly the door flew opened revelaing himself to Kabuto and Orochimaru. "Sasuke-kun… How long have you been there?"

"Long enough…" said Sasuke angrily. "I should have known…" Orochimaru began to laugh but it was cut short when Sasuke sped out of the lair. "After him!"

Sasuke quickly ran into the forest as fast as he could knowing that sound nin's would be onto him very soon. Within 30 minutes of constant running he felt 2 people behind him catching up.

"Must be special runners because very few people can keep up with me…" thought Sasuke.

Within moments 2 sound nin's appeared right in front of Sasuke.

"Orochimaru-sama wishes for you to come back with us immediately." Said one of nin's. Sasuke just laughed at them.

"For what? So he can take my body and take away my quest for revenge! I don't think so!" shouted Sasuke. "You weak chuunin's better leave now if you value your life!"

"There are 2 of us!" shouted one of the chuunin's jumping into the air followed by his partner. Both chuunin's attempted to hit Sasuke who simply dodged every single attack when one of sound nin's scratched Sasuke's cheek making him smile. Both of the sound ninja's eyes widened when Sasuke disappeared in smoke! "Kage bunshin!"

Sasuke smirked when he sensed that his Kage bunshin had been destroyed.

"Good thing they were chuunin's or else they might have known it was a kage bunshin." Thought Sasuke. "I better get going before more ninja's come back."

2 days later Sasuke landed on a tall tree and looked at a huge city.

"Look's like it got a lot bigger…" thought Sasuke. "It's the only place that's safe for now…"

He was about to jump towards the city when a kunai planted itself into his shoulder while several shiriken's cut his skin everywhere.

"Shit." Cursed Sasuke jumping off the tree. He sensed at least 10 jounin's. "Orochimaru must have known I would come back here…"

Sasuke quickly threw 6 kunai's in different direction's each with an explosion tag on them. The result was a huge explosion making several trees' catch on fire. Sasuke quickly back flipped away to dodge several more kunai's and then began to run full speed towards the village.

"You won't get away!" shouted the sound jounin captain. "Attack!"

Sasuke stopped his running when 2 jounin's blocked his path. He was way too tired to even fight 3 jounin's and it seemed like he would have to deal with 10. Sasuke quickly jumping into the air activating his curse seal and formed several hand seals.

"Katon Ryuuka no jutsu!" (Dragon fire). A huge line of fire shot towards the jounin's blocking his path and struck one head on while the other flew away. Sasuke then screamed in pain when someone made a huge gash on his back with a kunai making him fall onto the floor. Sasuke looked up weakly to see the ninja's beginning to advance on him. "Shit…"

Suddenly all 9 of the ninja's froze in right that second.

"What the hell!" shouted the captain. "I can't move!"

"Duh…" said a lazy voice. All nine of them saw a tall lazy ninja a few feet away with a black shadow extended towards them divided into 9 other dark lines. They soon noticed that the sun's light was begin blocked and looked up too see a huge green ball headed for 3 of them!

"Shikamaru…" whispered Sasuke.

Shikamaru quickly released his shadow bind on the three jounin's just as Choji crushed them into the ground. A new figure soon appeared and jumped right into the middle of the jounin's getting into his attack stance.

"Ready Neji…" said Shikamaru. Neji nodded crouching a bit.

"Jyuukenhou Hakke Rokujyuu Yonshou!" (64 points of divinity) shouted Neji he dashed towards the nearest jounin and right when his hands were about to strike Shikamaru took off his shadow so he wasn't affected by the attack.

Neji soon knocked the jounin unconscious and got into his divination stance once again while Choji knocked out 4 more jounin's. Neji used his 64 points one more time and killed the captain. Sasuke was amazed by their strength and saw them beginning to advance towards him.

"Uchiha Sasuke. You are herby under arrest for betraying the leaf… And by the way… This is for Naruto!" With that said Shikamaru punched Sasuke knocking the Uchiha out instantly.

End of Flashback

Akira looked at Sasuke after the bright screen disappeared.

"Hmmm. Look's like you have nothing better to do then betray others…" said Akira calmly.

"Shut up!" shouted Sasuke stabbing Akira again making the boy grit his teeth harder. "I know it hurts…" Sasuke smiled. "Come on you can scream it's just us 2…" Sasuke stabbed the boy 2 more times but was still unable to get a sound from him. Sasuke then began to walk back and forth looked at Akira who bled from his sides. "Why would you protect an Akatsuki? They are our enemies… All of them! So why?" Sasuke then smiled. Soon an image of Yumi who was tied against a cross appeared. She whipped her head around until she saw Sasuke and Akira.

"Akira!" she shouted.
"You really can't expect me to believe this is real…" said Akira.

"What?" said Yumi. Suddenly Sasuke stabbed her making her whimper in pain.

"Is she something more to you?" asked Sasuke seeing Akira stare at Yumi painfully.

"She isn't real…" thought Akira.

Akira struggled to break free from his chains making Sasuke walk up to his prisoner.

"There is no escape from my hell…" said Sasuke. "I was wondering since the first time I saw you… Why do you wear those sunglasses? A scar? Just trying to be cool?" Sasuke then began to reach for the boy's glasses when Akira moved his head forward until he was only a few inches away from Sasuke face…

"Do it and I'll break you…" said Akira.

"I'll take my chances…" said Sasuke. He then grabbed Akira's glasses and pulled them away from the teenager's eyes. Sasuke's eyes widened when he looked into Akira's eyes making him step back. "What the hell are you!" Akira's face came forward an inch more.

"I told you… Now you'll see your mistake" Akira shouted.

Sasuke suddenly heard hundreds of different screams making him cover his ears.

"What is this!" shouted the Uchiha.
