Nxh592: HEY! I am here! This story is still alive! Sorry for the very long wait. Today I have the sixty billion double dollar man, Vash the Stampede!
Vash: Goooood evening people! I am the great Vash! (sparkles)
Nxh592: Yes! Now I have a question. How's the desert?
Vash: Let's see, it's hot, it's unbearable, and there are doughnuts. As long as there are doughnuts, I'm good.
Nxh592: I agree, as long as the desert has dessert, we good. Speaking of which, how do you stay in such good shape?
Vash: Oh I run away from my fangirls all the time.
Nxh592: Liar…
Vash: No really! It's true they're outside. (opens window)
Fangirl 1: (squeal) It's him! He's poking his head out the window!
Fangirl 2: It is! It's him!
Vash: Hahah, no need to worry ladies, I'll be out soon!

Vash: huh?! But… my fangirls! Who doesn't like the red cape?!
Fangirl 2: Its been done!
Vash: Well then… how about (puts on sunglasses) my emo form.
Nxh592: (gasp) the trump card to any male anime character!

Obito sighed as he sat back on a rock. "Well that was fun for a while. D'ya agree Kakashi?"
Kakashi's eye seemed to smile "Yes, I must say it was fun. Just like old times."
"Yeah speaking of old times…" Obito said looking at Kakashi "you wanted to know how, right?"
Kakashi sat down next to Obito. "Yes that would seem like a good story to tell."
-----------------
Kakashi was catching his breath "Are you alright Rin?" he asked
"Yeah, thanks." She said "I was wondering if you were going to forget about me."
"No, It just took me a little while to get here." Kakashi said looking at Obito "It seems an old lady crossed my path."
Obito laughed so did Kakashi before grasping his left eye socket. What was left of his eye fell out.
"Let's get out of here and get you two back to the village for healing." Rin said
"Yeah, I believe that's the best choice." Kakashi said getting up. They were just a short walk from the entrance.
As the entrance was in sight, one of the stone ninjas bursted out of the rocks.
"I…I will not be beaten by a bunch of pests!!!" he screamed as Obito, Kakashi and Rin turned "Earth style: Earth Tremor!!!" Rocks fell as the earth around them shook. Obito only saw it for a moment. The cave wall collapsed around the stone nin and killed him. But not a moment sooner, the wall above them cracked under the pressure. Obito had only one choice. Without even thinking, he pushed Rin and Kakashi out of the way. As he did, something fell out of Kakashi's pocket, and a boulder crushed his body.
Kakashi got up again and ran toward where the boulder tumbled. He saw the mangled body of Obito crushed under the boulder.
"Obito, please…" Kakashi said "Don't you die."
Obito struggled "It's… al…right Kakashi. I don't…think I'll survive."
Rin followed Kakashi. "Obito…" She was stunned to see his mangled body
"R-Rin…" Obito said weakly "I… I want you to take my eye out."
"Wh-what?" Rin asked
"Just think of it… as a late present Kakashi." He said smiling weakly
Rin was hesitant to do so at first but she then cut out his eye keeping the innards intact.
"you…need to go… The… cave won't last much longer." Obito said "Goodbye…, Rin…"
Rin was crying silently "G-goodbye Obito." She cried.
"Kakashi…" Obito said "Don't worry, I'll see what you see from now on." He said smiling.
"Goodbye Obito." Kakashi said.
Another boulder came tumbling down with others.
"Obito!!!" Rin yelled as she saw the boulders coming down. Kakashi was holding her back.
Obito was lying down 'Am I…dead?' he wondered 'I don't feel much pain as I thought I would.' He slowly opened his eye. He saw a tree in front of him. He could hear birds. He got up and saw a Yellow haired man poking at a fire. "Sensei?"
"Huh? Ah! Obito, you're awake." Arashi said smiling
"Is this… heaven?" Obito asked
"Nah, it's just a couple of meters from the cave, see?" Arashi said pointing to the caved in ruins.
"How am I…alive?" Obito asked
"Well, y'know that rock that fell on you?" Arashi said
"Y-yeah," Obito said
"It was just a dirt clod. A heavy dirt clod, anybody would have thought it was a rock at first." Arashi said
"Y'mean… I wasn't dying?" Obito said incredulously
Arashi laughed, "Nah, but the rocks that tumbled afterward would have killed you."
"What happened, how did I get here?" Obito asked
"Well…" Arashi said digging around his pouch taking out his three pronged Kunai he gave to Kakashi "You can thank Kakashi, dropping this. If it wasn't for Kakashi, you'd be dead."
Someone came from behind them.
"Ah Arashi." It was the third Hokage "Is Kakashi ready?"
"Kakashi, What does he mean?" Obito asked
"Hmm, Obito Uchiha?" Lord Hokage said, "I thought you said Kakashi, Arashi."
"Well I did, and I was ready to bring Kakashi here, but since all of them thought Obito was dead already, it was a better cover." Arashi said
"Cover from what?" Obito asked
"We believe there's a spy in Konoha," Lord Hokage said, " But we can't be sure."
"Why is there need for secrecy? What's going on?" Obito asked
Lord Hokage pulled out something wrapped in a cloth. He handed it to Obito "Obito, we have a SS Rank mission for you."
Obito unwrapped an orange mask "What is this for? The Double S rank mission?"
"Yeah, Obito, have you ever heard of the Akatsuki?" Arashi asked
"No, I've never heard of it." Obito said
"They are a group of rouge ninja. Right now, there are a confirmed five members now. You will be its sixth member, Tobi." Arashi said
"Y-you mean, I'll be a spy?" Obito asked looking at the mask.
"He catches on fast Arashi." Lord Hokage said chuckling
"Obito, I want you to watch for any abnormalities in the Organization." Arashi said, "You won't report back for some time. Unless the organization has disbanded or when they make a major move. For example, when every one of the organization bands together to take down a village."
"Al-alright, I can do that, but…" He looked in the distance. "Do I really have to keep Rin and Kakashi out of the loop?"
"Yes, it is essential to keep you're status secret." Lord Hokage said
Obito looked at the mask "Alright, I'll do it!" He said smiling
"Ah but first, here." He said handing him a round ball "It's a glass eye, looks a little creepy you having one eye and all." He said joking or not Obito couldn't tell.
"Right," He said putting it in and putting the mask over his face.
----------------
"So after that, I found the Akatsuki hideout, passed their tests, and I went under a guy called Deidara." Obito sighed "Thank god I don't have to call him Sempai ever again, or hear him say Un again, seriously the guy says it every three seconds."
"So why wear the gauze over your eye if you have a glass one?" Kakashi asked
"Oh," He said lifting it up showing a gash over his eye "I hate having it in there, feels weird." He said sticking his tongue out and closing his eye.
Kakashi chuckled "You are still the idiot I knew so many years ago."
"Speaking of so many years ago, I saw Rin 'bout a year or two back." Obito said
"You… did? Where did you see her?" Kakashi asked calmly
"Oh, she's at the whirlpool village, where Lady… Ku…Shina… was… born…" He froze "that's right!" he said as he put his goggles over his eyes.
"Huh?"
"We gotta get to the village!" Obito said running to the direction of the village. "I'll explain on the way!"
Kakashi sighed "I don't get him."
"Sasuke," Itachi said looking up
"Ah, so that's your little brother you talked about, you're right, He looks just like you." Kisame said smiling evilly
Sasuke jumped down from the tree holding out his sword. "You die here Itachi." He said in a low voice to an almost growl.
"And what makes you think you are even close to my level?" Itachi asked
Sasuke closed his eyes and opened them again. In his eyes was a complicated swirl that resembled a pinwheel.
"The Mangekyo Sharingan." Itachi said "I see, so you have killed Naruto Uzumaki already. This makes our job easier."
"Sorry to disappoint you Itachi, but Naruto is alive and well." Sasuke said "These were given to me by a different means." His eyes glowed fiercely.
"Let me kill him Itachi." Kisame said "He might prove a challenge with his eyes."
"Very well, make it fast Kisame." Itachi said
"Sakura, Now!" Sasuke said
Sakura came out from hiding and slammed a hard punch to Kisame.
"You're fights with me shark boy." Sakura said putting her fists out.
"Ah so I have to fight his little friend instead." Kisame said pulling out his sword.
"Let's go." Sakura said
Sakura moved at extreme speeds. She blasted punch after punch in Kisame's stomach. Kisame was moving away trying to get away.
"Do you think I'm weak little girl?" Kisame asked
"No, I don't think your weak, I know your weak." Sakura said punching him in the head.
"That gets annoying after a while pinky." Kisame said slamming his samehada down to make the earthquake.
Sakura dodged this quickly and made an earthquake of her own.
"Oh so its not just speed you have," Kisame said smiling widely. "You have the strength of a bull."
"Nah, its more than that. I have the power of a Sennin!" Sakura yelled as she made the earthquake larger.
"Ahh, so this is the power of Tsunade-hime, huh?" he said as he showed his teeth. "That's too bad, because I have the power of the shark." Kisame jumped into the air unaffected by the extreme strength of Sakura's earthquake. He went toward Sakura, but instead of using the Samehada, he came at her with his teeth. Sakura dodged his teeth and the boulder behind her had a huge bite mark out of it where she was standing moments ago.
"It's time for a shark frenzy!!!" Kisame said foaming at the mouth with a crazed look in his eye.
Sakura dodged his teeth and slammed her fist into his stomach. He recovered quickly and chomped again. He missed and Sakura punched the back of his head. He looked like he didn't even feel it and came charging again. This time, he took a chunk of skin off of her leg. She screamed in agony as she saw him eating her leg.
"Is that all you had girly? Well, that's a shame, I like it when my prey puts up a fight!" Kisame said "I guess its dinner time then!"
To his surprise she came running toward him unaffected by the massive skin and blood loss she suffered. She slammed her fist into his mouth and sent him flying.
Kisame got up affected by the blow, " but… how can you run, more than that. How can you even stand?" Kisame looked at her leg. To his surprise, it was like he never bit it. It looked as though it had never received any damage for that matter.
"Blood loss, Water: 2 oz Iron: 15 mil. Salt:0.3 mil. Skin loss: Calcium: 1.5 kil. Various elements that can be found here." She said
"What?! What does that mean?!" Kisame asked
"It's the amount I lost with that one bite. I've configured it to my chakra and regenerated my skin." She explained
"Oh yeah? Try that with this next bite!" Kisame said as he lunged at her. To his surprise, his limbs went numb. "Wh-what?!"
"You know, you should have kept using your sword, that way I can only effect your hands. But you went on that feeding frenzy and gave me the perfect opportunity to damage your central nerve system." Sakura said walking closer.
"St-stay away!" Kisame yelled
"You, know. Shark is the only seafood I don't like." Sakura said as she raised her foot way over her head and brought it down like a guillotine on Kisame's neck.
"Nooooo!!!!" he said as he could hear his own neck break.
Sakura breathed easy. She looked down the hill to where Sasuke and Itachi have yet to start their fight. She felt a raindrop on her nose. She looked up where storm clouds started rolling in.
"It seems as though Kisame has lost." Itachi said calmly as the rain fell hard. "She must be very strong to defeat him."
"Yeah, she is. And I'll beat you ten times more than she did your partner!" Sasuke said as he rushed over to Itachi "Katon: Hoken!" he said as his sword lit fire. He slashed at Itachi and he burst into ravens. Sasuke didn't seem surprised by this.
"Are you so weak you can't tell an illusion from reality?" Itachi said calmly from behind him.
Sasuke smiled "not really," Sasuke disappeared in a puff of smoke to reveal a log and appeared behind Itachi. He turned and grabbed the flaming sword. "Not likely." He said throwing Sasuke from him.
"You disguise your chakra well Itachi. But I can tell where you are no matter the circumstances." Sasuke said as his Sharingan spun in his eye.
"It appears that Tsukiyomi will not be of any use here." Itachi said, "So lets see if Ameterasu will be of any challenge toward you." His eyes strained "Katon: Ameterasu!" Black flames surrounded him and went toward Sasuke. The blast was so great there was no way of escape for Sasuke.
The flames engulfed Sasuke. There was nothing except black flames now. As Itachi thought he had won, Sasuke came from behind and slashed at him.
"So, you've escaped." Itachi said grabbing the sword tip with his fingers.
Sasuke backed off. "Yeah, I have to remember to thank Naruto for the move."
"Kage-bunshin, I see," Itachi said
"Lets stop screwing around Itachi." Sasuke said "I have had enough of you going easy on me."
"I believe your right. The warm-up is finished." Itachi said
Sasuke reached behind his back and brought out a small scroll with a small flame sealing it.
"I see, so you've made the deal with the dragons." Itachi said bringing out a similar scroll with flame sealing it as well.
"Kichiyose no Jutsu!!" They both said as they lay both of their scrolls on the floor. They both burst into flames.
A huge roar echoed from each end of Konoha. The conjoined roar of the two legendary dragons, Shenryu and Shouryu.
Shouryu was a Black dragon whose horns were straight and sharp. His red eyes were large and threatening. He stood on two of his feet. On his head was Itachi, who had murder in his eyes.
The other Dragon was Shenryu; he was much different from Shouryu. He had no legs and floated in the air. He was a dark blue and fierce looking dragon his yellow eyes could shine through even the darkest shadows. On his head was Sasuke.
"Well, it's been a long while since I was summoned." Said Shenryu "Oh, is that you Fugaku?" He asked Sasuke
"No, I'm his son, Sasuke." Sasuke said to the Blue dragon.
The dragon laughed, "Well, you look like your father a lot boy. The name is Shenryu."
"Good to meet you, Shenryu." Sasuke said looking only at Itachi
"Hmm, It's been a while since I have been out, you have found little use for me Itachi." Shouryu said
"Know your place Shouryu." Itachi said
"What's with the new attitude Itachi?" Shouryu asked
"Silence dragon," Itachi said, "You are used as a weapon primarily."
"Fine, we'll play it your way." Shouryu said
Shenryu was quick and fierce, barreling through the sky at mach speeds. Shouryu, even though his size was by far larger, was able to keep up with Shenryu without much trouble. Shenryu opened his mouth and belched blue flames at Shouryu. Shouryu countered with black flame that was much larger. It consumed Shenryu's flames and ricocheted it back. Shenryu was able to dodge easily. Shenryu smiled, as did Shouryu.
"I haven't felt this exhilarated in years!" Shenryu said laughing.
"Neither have I!" Shouryu said laughing as well. Thunder was louder, Lightning was closer. The storm had begun.
Both clashed and bit each other and sunk their teeth into each other. Their blood ran down each other's faces. As they did Sasuke ran up Shouryu sword in hand to his head. Itachi doing the same with a kunai in hand. Their weapons clashed, making an incredible impact. As the dragons fought, the brothers fought on their backs, each using incredible taijutsu, genjutsu and ninjutsu both cutting each other, smashing fists and tricking their senses. Sasuke swung his sword with all his might as he kept missing and hitting a clone. Though he knew he was just missing. Itachi was no longer taking this fight lightly; he came at Sasuke with all of his strength. Both covered in their own blood, their opponent's blood, and the dragon's blood. Sasuke knew there was only one way he would win. The fire dispersed from the sword. Sasuke threw the sword in the air. He ran at Itachi while doing hand signs. An electric current gathered in his hand formed into a ball. As it did, a chirping sound could be heard. As he had his hand down, his sword dropped into his hand, the electric current swirled into the sword itself. "Chidoriken! One thousand birds blade!!!"
The blade went right through Itachi's stomach. Itachi coughed up blood. Sasuke removed his sword. As he did, both of the dragons disappeared. Sasuke was panting heavily, out of breath.
"I…I am not weak…" Sasuke said as rain fell onto his head. He dropped his sword to his side.
In the shadows, another unknown entity to the two brothers and Sakura was watching. He laughed evilly "It seems you were useless after all, Itachi." He said as he brought out a small scroll that had ITACHI UCHIHA scribbled on it. He ripped it in half with his finger. "I was hoping you wouldn't disappoint me." He said as his yellow snake-like eyes glowed.
Itachi's eyes flashed. He was on the floor.
"Sa…Sasuke…" Itachi said trying to stand.
"You want another hole in your stomach?! Than stay down!" Sasuke yelled
"Please…Sasuke…Listen to…me…" Itachi pleaded as he held his wound. "Listen…to what I have to tell you."
"Why should I listen to a murderer like you!?" Sasuke yelled "You've taken everything away from me. You have taken all of the people that were close to me and killed them!"
Itachi looked at the ground "You're right. I killed them… Mother, Father, everyone." Itachi said "I can't take that back Little brother."
Sasuke snapped "YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO CALL ME YOUR BROTHER!" Sasuke was about to finish it once and for all. But there was something holding him back. It could have been someone was behind him, or it could have been he was snagged somewhere, but he knew. It was Itachi's eyes. His eyes didn't have the carelessness they had before. They were the eyes of a brother pleading for forgiveness.
"Please listen…" Itachi pleaded again "I… I was weak…I followed his orders…"
"Who's orders?" Sasuke asked still angry
"The one they call the deserter, Orochimaru."
Sasuke's eyes widened.
"He told me, he would give me the power of the Mangenkyo Sharingan. I wanted anything to have more power… He made me put my name on a scroll. Once I put it on, it felt like a nightmare. Shisui was by the lake… he didn't suspect anything. I…I killed him there…I regained my own consciousness, thinking it was a dream, but I couldn't deny his body floating down the lake and the note I made to make them think it was suicide by the lake.
"After I left the house that day, it happened again… a feeling of helplessness. I felt like a puppet. I could hear…all of them screaming…I couldn't stop myself…they tried there best, but none would stand. When you arrived, I thought I would kill you too. I… I was able to break free. I told you to run and cling to life. I thought I'd be free, but I wasn't… five long years in the Akatsuki… I couldn't leave. Even when he did. I killed many people, destroyed many lives for no apparent reason. And now, I'm trying to destroy yours again Brother." Itachi gathered himself and got up limping. "I… can finally say…I'm sorry for your older brother's foolishness… If I never agreed to his demands…all of them would be alive."
"How do I know you're telling the truth?" Sasuke asked
"Orochimaru… He can never rid himself of the scrolls of the ones he controls…" Itachi said, "Please…save Uzumaki…"
"Why what has happened to Naruto?!" Sasuke asked
Itachi laughed "Wrong…Uzumaki. I mean the leader and the other…Kazuma…and…and…" he coughed up blood.
"Itachi? Itachi, speak tell me who he other is!" Sasuke said
Itachi raised his blood-drenched arm. He placed two fingers on Sasuke's forehead. "A…ah, sorry little brother…" his hand fell "Maybe…some other time…" Sasuke had his blood all over his face.
Itachi fell, Sasuke stood still. He was shocked. He didn't know what he could do. The sound that broke the silence was Sakura coming back down the mountain.
"Sa-Sasuke? I…I heard."
Sasuke yelled he shouted at the skies as tears ran down his face. He slammed his knees to the floor and stated beating the ground beneath him. He swore at himself, he swore at Orochimaru, the only thing to comfort him was Sakura coming down to hug him. Sasuke held her hand and picked his head up.
"Sakura… I want you to stay here with Itachi. If you can, fix him up. I want to be the one to bury my Ne-san when I get back." Sasuke said
"Where are you going?" Sakura asked
"To find Orochimaru…and kill him." Sasuke said "I don't know if I'll be back."
"You will, I know you will." Sakura said smiling
"Goodbye Sakura. Goodbye Itachi."
Kyuubi sniffed the air again. "That's plenty far. But…" he sniffed the air again "What the hell is that smell? Smells like, two dogs, metal, sweat, wood, bugs, hairspray, barbeque chips and…Shukaku?"
----------------------------------
"Kazuma!" Arashi yelled
Pein turned "Well, if it isn't my brother."
Meanwhile, at the village
"What d'ya mean Sensei is back in the forest?! I need to speak to him!" Obito yelled
"If would have explained it I could have told him that." Kakashi thought
"I understand you need to see Arashi, Obito, but he'll be back." The Third Hokage said
"Sir, You don't understand! It's about Lady Kushina, She's alive!!!"
