Chapter 9: Sasuke's on his way & Elis's talk with Akuma

Sasuke was on the ground beating himself up inside. He couldn't believe what he had just heard. He was so upset with him self that he banged his head on the floor and he was bleeding.

"Sasuke stop it. Elis wouldn't want you to do that," Sakura said trying to stop Sasuke.

Sasuke started to slow down until he compleatly stopped.

"Your right," Sasuke said pulling himself together.

"We need to find them so we can save her and figure out what there plan is," Sasuke said standing up.

"Are you sure? Shouldn't we at least report this to Tsunade before making rash decisions?" Sakura suggested.

"Who cares? She will have to put us on the job know since we know so much," Naruto said.

"No. We need to tell her that we are going after them and I have a hunch of where they will be," Sasuke said.

Naruto got a bird while Sakura was writing down the things that they needed to tell Tsunade. Sasuke was looking at some books to see if there were any thing that could prove that his theory was correct.

"We just sent the bird," Naruto reported to Sasuke.

"Good. Take the books that are over there and make them smaller so we can use them," Sasuke said pointing at a small pile of books.

"Alright," Naruto said going to the books. "Um...How do you make them smaller?"

"I will do it," Sakura said sensing that Sasuke was getting mad.

"Thanks," Sasuke said apreitating what Sakura was doing.

Sakura did the seal to make the books smaller and placed them in a scroll so they could summon them when they needed it.

"Is this it?" Sakura asked a few minutes after.

"Yes. For know let's rest we will be needing all of our strenght," Sasuke said getting his sleeping bag out.

"Okay," Naruto said agreing with him.

Sasuke could hardly sleep that night. He was tossing and turning. So much things were going through his mind. He had this dream that Elis was stuck in this weird glowing ball full of water. Then he saw Itachi and Hiashi talking with there backs towards him.

"Is she really the girl?" Itachi asked.

"Yes. Her chakra is off the charts. That demon in her is more powerful then I thought," Hiashi said.

"So are you really going to kill her?" Itachi asked.

"I will. This girl is to dangeours even in the right hands. I must kill her," Hiashi said.

"Well let us wait until Sasuke comes. I want him to suffer even more," Itachi said in an evil voice.

Sasuke woke up imidiatly and he was breathing hard. After he pulled himself together he looked at Naruto and Sakura to see if he had woken them up. They weren't there. Then he heard some strange noise. He got up and followed the noise. As he got closer to the noise he saw clothes being flown everywhere.

"COULD YOU GUYS NOT DO THAT KNOW. FIND A ROOM THAT I AM NOT IN. OR EVEN BETTER DO IT AFTER THE MISSION," Sasuke yelled at the top of his lungs.

The next moring they went to find Itachi and Hiashi. As they were going Sasuke told them about his dream.

"So do you think it was really happening?" Sakura asked as they were running.

"I think so. But it seemed that I was a bit odd," Sasuke said.

"Well did you at least see where they were?" Naruto asked ahead of everyone.

"Barrly," Sasuke said.

"Well can you at least tell us what you saw?" Sakura asked.

"Well all I saw was that Elis was haning on this weird looking rock that had eyeballs on it," Sasuke remebering it.

"What?" Sakura and Naruto said at the same time.

"Are you sure it was a rock with eyeballs on it?" Naruto asked Sasuke.

"Postive," Sasuke said. "Why?"

"That is the thing that almost killed Garra," Naruto said bitting his lips at the memory of it all.

"What do you mean?" Sasuke asked confused.

"That thing is what takes the demons out of the person's body. Like Naruto," Sakura explained to Naruto. "The thing is that since the demon is so powerful and that the body is so fragile that the person dies becasue of the ceramony."

Sasuke was shocked.

"So are you saying that they might take the demon in Elis's body as well as Naruto's?" Sasuke asked trying to figure it all out.

"I am not sure," Sakura said.

"Great. We get our answers which leads us to more questions," Sasuke said getting mad.

"Don't worry Sasuke. We will find Elis and then we will kick Itachi's and Hiashi's butt," Naruto said looking over his shoulders to look at Sasuke. "Don't worry. I am willing to risk my life to save her as Hinata did."

"Me too. I don't want Hinata's death to all be in vain," Sakura asured Sasuke.

"Thank you," Sasuke said with all of his heart.

And so the race was on between life and death.

Meanwhile in the cave where Elis waits.

"Father, please don't come," Elis whispered to herself.

"Let him come," whisperd a spirit.

"Stay out of this, Akuma," Elis said knowing who it was.

"You must let him come. If not I will be in your body for ever," the spirit said.

"I will destroy you with my own body," Elis said.

"Wow so confident. You won't be so confident when you see your father die just like you mother," Akuma said.

Akuma had apeared infront of Elis's eyes. Well she could only be seen by Elis's Byakugan.

"I see that you can see me know," Akuma said knowing that Elis could see her.

"I have been working on it. It dosen't take a lot of my chakra because I use yours," Elis said happy that she was able to develop the teqnice so well.

"At least I have enough chakra to last me for 10 years of battle and that isn't even just for an ordianary fight," Akuma said prasing herself.

"I don't care. Once my father comes I will show him that I am old enough to do things on my own and that I can defeat a strong demon like you," Elis said confidently.

"Well I should tell you that your father bears my marking so I can control him when ever I want," Akuma said.

"I know that he will stop you from doing that," Elis said in a firm voice.
