Chapter Eleven
"Sir, the targets have entered the village. Attack now, sir?" The older man sighed. "I said to wait for the battle royale. But I guess we could have a little fun before we attack the other villages." The younger man grinned. "Yes, yes, sir! You are most grateful. I shall create beautiful art for all tonight!!" The older man patted his ward on the shoulder. "That is why I am a Kage, my young friend. A Kage knows best." They jumped from their place in the shadows and descended to the village, the young man cackling wildly.
"Kenisha-chan, are you in here?" "Hello?" The Sand Team + 1 were examining the park that they heard Kenisha's scream come from. They weren't getting anywhere though. "You're wasting your breath: Kenisha isn't here," Katie said, pushing her glasses further up the bridge of her nose. "Then where the hell is she?! She can't have gone far; you heard her yell last night," Temari yelled. "What a drag...searching for a kunoichi I don't even know," Shikamaru said dryly, crossing his arms behind his head. "Shut up, you hormonal pests. I knew that already, thank you. By the way, the only reason she's even here is for a mission, so she can't leave. That gives us an advantage," Katie said, walking toward the village.
3 minutes later
"Have you seen this kunoichi? Her name is Kenisha Kimochi, she's about 4 foot 10 and has very dark hair tied in a long ponytail. Have you seen her?" The team had found a ramen stand and had sat down to eat, not knowing it was the exact stand that Kenisha and Lee had eaten at the night before. "Yeah, I've seen her. She was here just last night with some green clad kid with bushy eyebrows. She talked to him non stop and finished her ramen in three minutes. Why are you looking for her?" 'This man can give Hermione a run for her money,' Katie thought. "She's our cousin; I'm sure you heard about the Kimochi massacre, at least that's what they're calling it now. She along with us and another cousin are the soul survivors." The ramen guy put his head down and took off his little white hat. (Me: Oh my God, if he wasn't paying respects..wait, HAHAHAHAHA!!!! Katie: 'punches me' Shut up. It's just a little white hat.)
"A sad day indeed, for not only were the Kimochi clan attacked, but the entire Village Hidden in the Sky. I had friends over there, some I've known for many years. I was so crushed to hear the place had been pillaged..." Temari and Emily snapped thier fingers after a moment of silence. "So, where is she? We can't have her dying off like the others," the two said together.
"I heard she went off to the bridge with three others; for some mission I suspect. Are you going to--" But before the man could finish, they were gone.
"Why on the bridge? The village is over here!" Kenisha pointed back at the village gates. "Because we were told to guard the village: that means being in there isn't an option; it won't be protected from danger that way," Neji said coldly. "Is Ice-man angry," TenTen said in a baby sing-song voice, pinching Neji's cheek. He gave her a death glare, but TenTen didn't seem to notice. "Is big, bad, Neji Hyuga angry at a fourteen year old asking a question? Awww, that's to bad." She walked further down the bridge, leaving Neji steaming and rubbing his cheek. Meanwhile, Kenisha and Lee were laughing there asses off.
"God, TenTen, you have to teach me how to do that!!" Kenisha wiped a tear from her eye and looked at Lee, who smiled. Her expression changed entirely, like this: > Lee did not back away, but went up to Kenisha and held her wrist tightly. "You have the nerve to be mad at me after all that has happened?! First you slap me, you drag me on the ground, then you get TenTen to pin me to a tree with her crossbow!! And for Youth's sake, you will not even talk to me afterward!! Do you not think I have suffered enough?" He let go of her and turned around with his head down. All eyes were on Kenisha, and she shrugged. 'Ah great, it's the "You'd better do something about this or I'll kill you," stare. Well, I guess I should go talk to him...damn.' She slowly walked over to Lee but was intterupted by a puff of smoke. "Nice to see you again, Kenisha-chibi." 'That voice!' Kenisha's head snapped around at the source of the voice. Her eyes widened.
"Hermione-chan!!" Hermione smiled and Neji gave her a look. "Who's the man with you?" Itachi came out of the smoke and everyone gasped. "Hermione-san and I have orders to take this village. Eliminating the enemy will be necessary. All except you, Kenisha Kimochi. You're special. But the boss is never against capturing someone that can't move." Hermione cracked her knuckles.
"So, Itachi-kun, who should we knock out first: the ugly tree, the panda girl, or the sexually confused freak?" 'Oh shit: major problem now,' Kenisha thought. "Ugly tree? I am taking you to hell and back!" "Panda girl? It's on now, bitch!!" "Sexually confused freak? Who the hell do you think you are?!!" Kenisha held her arms out, stopping them from charging. "This isn't you, Hermione!! You love everything, you're the present generation wind user of the Kimochi clan!! Who did this to you?!" "No one did this to her," Itachi said. "She changed of her own free will. There's nothing you can do about it." He laughed evily. "You--you.." Kenisha was shaking her fists at him. Then she got an idea. "Hey guys...I'm going to let you get Itachi, but keep off Hermione. She's mine."
"Awesome!" "Yosh!!" "Time to end this!!" "Ready? Let's kick some ass!!" The four of them charged at Hermione and Itachi. "Sharingan!!" "Wind Style: Hurricane of Needles!!" Hermione and Itachi did the same jutsu and knocked their attackers backward. But not without slicing them with tiny pricks to their muscles. "Damn, she's powerful," Neji yelled as he regained his footing. "Byakugan!!" He charged at Itachi and yelled," Eight Trigrams: Sixty-Four Palms!!" He aimed at Itachi's heart (Emily: Does he have a heart? Katie: He has to have one to live. TenTen: She doesn't mean it like that! Like emotionally.. Katie: Oh, then no.) and blocked his Chakra points. That is what it appeared to be until he dissappeared. "A shadow clone? Damn!"
Meanwhile, TenTen was fighting the real Itachi. "Dragon's Barrage!!" She raised her gigantic scroll over her head and threw it up in the air. She jumped through it and sent a flurry of weapons forward. Then she spun faster than the speed of sound and moved toward Itachi. He couldn't block all of them: a mace hit his right shoulder and a couple scythes hit his legs. 'Goosh' (Me: Told you I like creating words!) Blood went everywhere. "Yeah, you kick his ass, TenTen!!" Kenisha yelled over Hermione's jutsu. "Will do!!" Kenisha turned back to Hermione, who was charging at her with a kunai. Kenisha smirked. "Water Style: Tears of Atlantis!!" Clouds hovered over the already misty landscape and needle-like rain poured from their depths. She then dissappeared from sight amongst the rain.
Hermione's eyes widened. 'She perfected the jutsu?! 'deep breath' It's okay, calm down. Kenisha-chan isn't enough to beat you. Not here.' Hermione smirked at the air, not knowing where Kenisha was at that moment. "Nice rain. Sadly, all I have to do is dispell the clouds and poof: bye-bye jutsu," Hermione said, hoping that Kenisha gave in to her bluff. She didn't. "You like the rain, Hermione-chan? 'Cause you're going to get aquainted real fast: you can't dispell this jutsu. The water in the clouds is infused with my Chakra, thus making the clouds impossible to dispell. I have to end the jutsu or use a more powerful jutsu to make the rain go away. You feel like singing?" Hermione looked around frantically for the source of Kenisha's voice, but it seemed to be coming from everywhere.
"Damnit, I can't see anything here!!" "Stop complaining; come on!!" Temari was dragging Emily through the dense cloud cover, clearing a path with her fan. "Rising Twin Dragons!!" 'That jutsu!' A volley of weapons went toward them and Temari blocked them with her fan. "TenTen, it's me!!" They bounced off and were dragged back by metal threads. The caster of the jutsu landed on the ground and rushed toward them. "TenTen!!" "Temari!!" They gave eachother a brief hug and TenTen explained the situation. "...So now we're fighting Hermione Kimochi and Itachi Uchiha for possesion of the village or something. You want to help?" Temari grinned. "Anything to get the rust of this thing." She ran alongside TenTen into the battle, leaving Katie and Emily dumbstruck.
"Do you understand what I've just witnessed," Katie asked Emily. "I didn't understand that sentence," Emily replied. Katie sighed heavily. "Nevermind; let's go!" Katie tried to grab Emily's hand, but Emily shook it away. "I can kick peoples' asses on my own: I don't need anyone leading me into battle!! I should be leading you!" She grabbed Katie's hand and threw her toward Temari, who caught her just in time. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TRYING TO PULL??!! She could've hit my fan and bye-bye twin!! You dumbass!!" Emily got mad. "You make me--urgghh, urggh--Fire Style: Scorching Ring Prison!!" Her justu missed and hit Itachi square on. A ring of fire erupted around him. Katie gave Temari a high-five. "Told you getting her pissed would work."
"Shikamaru, can you help--SHIKAMARU!!!" He was asleep standing up. She slapped him and he woke up, startled. "Are the deer on fire?!" "NO!! Damn, and you call yourself a genius. Capture Itachi for me." Shikamaru muttered something that sounded like:" Damn troublesome woman. What a drag..". He put his hands in front of his face so she couldn't hear, but Temari heard anyway. A split second later, Shikamaru was rubbing his head from Temari's smack to it. "Fine, damn...Shadow Bind Technique!" He captured the unsuspecting Itachi in a shadow, but was having a hard time keeping hold of him. "Hurry up!!" "In that case: Wind Style: Severing Pressure!!" Temari swung her fan and caught Itachi in a whirlwind, slicing him repeatedly.
"Sir, the battle is heated enough. Can I please step in?" The young man had become impatient with his leader: keeping him from creating beautiful art after such a long time was taking its toll on him. The Kage sighed next to him. "Fine, Deidara. You may go, but don't hurt them too bad, we need them for later." Deidara grinned.
"Yes, sir. I won't be long." He put a hand in his pouch of clay and the mouth on it chewed it up and spit out the remains. He molded them into an owl and threw it into the air, making it gigantic. Deidara was about to take of when the Kage said," Oh and Deidara: It doesn't matter how long it takes, I'm not Sasori. But make sure it happens within three days, alright?" "I can do even better: They'll be on my mount by tommorow morning. Now, to create glorious art!!" He took off, and the Kage smirked.
Lee had sat back with Neji and watched the fighting, but he was getting restless. "Neji, I feel someone else coming. It feels like a member of the Akatsuki; an enormous Chakra." Neji got the message and activated his Byakugan. He stiffened. "It's the one who killed Gaara, Deidara. We should deal with him before he gets near the village or the girls." "Y-yes, Neji. We should." Neji noticed his stuttering, but decided to ignore it and ran toward the large clay owl. 'Damn, he's too high for any of my jutsu to reach. Lee could hit him but...Only TenTen can throw that high...' "TenTen!!" He spotted her running toward him through his Byakugan. "Hey Neji, Lee. What do you need?" "Throw everything you can at that owl and the man sitting atop it." He pointed at the flapping monstrousity. TenTen smirked. "Alright, just stand back." They did so and TenTen pulled out her huge scroll. "Heaven's Deadly Ascent!!" She did some handsigns and the scroll flew in a spiral up in that air. She jumped through the middle and sent weapons flying at the giant bird.
Up in the air, Deidara got freaked out. "WHAT THE HELL ARE FREAKIN' WEAPONS FLYING AT ME FOR?!!!!" He tried to maneuver away from them, but by that time, TenTen was at the same altitude he was and aiming all her attacks at him. "You ever encountered a weapons specialist before? If not, here's a taste: Heavenly Dragon's Barrage!!" She spun towards Diedara and sent spiked bombs flying at him. They all exploded in front of him, and Deidara's eyes watered. "That was beautiful!! Who knew that weapons specialists could create such exceptional art!!" He wiped his eyes and put a hand in his pouch again, this time creating little birds. They all flew around TenTen's spinning scroll of death (Me: It was my idea to call it that!! Katie: Everything in this fanfiction is your idea. Get on with it!) and exploded with a "Katsu!". The weapons she threw absorbed some of the blow but TenTen couldn't withstand the extreme friction of the bombs and her weapons and plummeted to the ground.
"TENTEN!!!" Neji ran across the bridge to see TenTen land in a boat outside the bridge. (Emily: Ssssss...ow. That's gotta hurt.) "TenTen!" Neji jumped into the boat, rocking it a little, and shook TenTen. She stirred and grabbed her right arm. "Damn him, I won't be able to use my arm for a while." "Why? What's wrong with it?" TenTen slapped him. "You idiot; you've got to stop worrying about me at one point in your life. Besides, it's just broken and bruised--You okay?" Neji had turned away from TenTen and something was glistening down his cheek. "Neji, are you crying?" He turned around and faced her. "I'm not crying!! These tears are of joy! You're not dead and thats all I care about!!" TenTen blinked. "Aww, thats sweet. But you were crying over me." "NO I WASN'T!!!"
Lee was trying to get at Deidara. "There's no way your puny Taijutsu can get at me. There's nothing beautiful or artlike about it!!" "You shall see, Deidara!!" Lee kneeled down and removed his weights 'BOOM', resulting in a loud crash and two large craters forming in the ground. "You shall see what my Taijutsu is made of!!" He jumped in the raining sky and pulled a chain out of his vest. "Fifth Gate, release! Strong Thunder Reverse Lotus Chain!!" The chain was wrapped around Deidara and the bird and they were spun around at speeds faster than sound and punched repeatedly in midair. "One more punch," Lee screamed and punched Deidara in the face which sent him crashing down to the bridge below "Not without these!!" Deidara sent clay birds at Lee, but they went past him. 'BOOM' The bridge cracked a little bit and then a piece broke off, sending him down into the sea. "Alright Lee!! You got him!!" Lee heard Kenisha yell in the distance. 'She is talking to me again. That is a relief,' he thought. Then he noticed something white coming close behind her. "Kenisha-chan, look out!" She turned around just in time to jump in the air, but the blast blinded her, which gave Hermione an opening. "Wind Style: Knives of the Burning Wind!!" Hermione hit Kenisha all over her body with searing hot kunai, cutting and burning the flesh they touched. Kenisha's screams sickened Lee to his stomach.
"KENISHA-CHAN!!!" He ran toward her and jumped into the jutsu, injuring himself in the process. 'How does something so hot survive in the rain?' Lee asked himself as he grabbed Kenisha's hand and dragged her out of the jutsu. "Not so fast," Hermione yelled, sending the jutsu after them. "So the knives are controlled by her Chakra strings...this is going to be a problem," Lee said to himself. "Leaf Hurricane!!" He kicked some of the knives away, but the others closed in and attacked Kenisha and him. "You can't stop this jutsu with that," Hermione said, "You have to put the exact amount of Chakra I have running through them in to the knives and then they'll stop responding to my Chakra, but reading your profile at the base I realized that you have undeveloped Chakra coils: thus being unable to send Chakra into anything but yourself." 'Damn, she knows!' "That may be true, but I do not care!!" "You can't escape this jutsu!!" Hermione caught Lee's exposed leg and sent him into a kneeling position. "Lee...-kun..." Lee's head snapped towards Kenisha's. 'Lee-kun? Kenisha-chan...' "Lee-kun, I'm sorry..." "You have nothing to be sorry about!! You would not have fallen for the jutsu if I had disposed of those bombs!! I should be sorry!!" "Pay attention!!" The knives attacked them again and Kenisha coughed up blood. "Kenisha-chan, hold on. I will get us out!" "You..need Chakra. Take this." She reached into her pocket and got out a necklace with a sea blue pearl pendant on it. "What do I do with this?"
"It's a Chakra amplifier but it also doubles as I place where I store my Chakra for big jutsu. If you use it, you--" "Will be able to break free of the jutsu," Lee finished. "Just put it on, there's not much time!!" Lee doned the necklace and an ice blue Chakra was emitted from it, forming a giant wolf. He howled and swiped his tail at the knives, which disintegrated them along with Chakra strings attached to them. 'My Chakra...it's being taken from me!!!' Hermione ran to Itachi, who was being forced to the side of the bridge by Temari, Emily and Katie. "Bye, bye, Itachi Uchiha," Katie said," Earth Style: Upcoming Pillars!!" Itachi was flung off the bridge by thousands of stone pillars coming out of the ground. Hermione watched him fall into the water and not come back up. "Itachi-kun...Damn you, Katie-chan!!" She used the last of her Chakra to teleport away.
"Kenisha-chan..." Lee did not realize that Kenisha had experienced some of the blast of Chakra as well, so there she lay, her hair splayed across the ground, eyes closed. "Hey, you, dude in green," he heard Emily call. "Damn, that was tactful," Katie said sarcastically. "Shut up. Anyway, what the hell did you think you were doing?! You could've killed poor little Kenisha-chan--whoa..." Emily had just spotted Kenisha on the ground. "Oh shit," Katie said and ran to Temari, who hid behind her fan. "YOU BASTARD!!!!!" Emily's Chakra was burning around her like the fires of hell but Lee did not flinch. "WHO THE F--K DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?? SHE'S BARELY ALIVE BECAUSE OF YOU--" "What the hell are you yelling about?" TenTen and Neji made there way toward them. "Lee nearly killing Kenisha, the dumbass," Temari said from behind her fan. "I'm sure it wasn't all his fault, but you've got to sotp yelling at him and get her to a hospital!" With that, she allowed Lee to pick Kenisha up (Me: Bridal style, no less. Emily: You're supposed to be barely alive. That means not talking. Me: Damn 'goes back to being unconcious'). "Come on!" The rest of the group followed them to the entrance to the Land of Waves village.
