Fallen Leaves

Chapter 11

Final Chapter

Naruto got out of the water and stood up facing Orochimaru. "Your going to regret ever stepping foot out of your little hole." naruto said calmly but harshly. He swore he could have seen Orochimaru swallow nervously, but there was no way in hell that he was going to forgive him for what he did. Naruto jumped back three or four meters to put a small distance between them. Orochimaru seemed to think all was clear now that Naruto had backed up, but he was he was very wrong. The ground underneath Orochimaru exploded and sent him flying high into the air, as he was soaring threw the air, Naruto jumped up behind him and jabbed a powerful Rasengan in his back making him fly higher into the air. He then took this chance to grab Orochimaru with a small but powerful wire and throw him to the ground, causing the dirt underneath him to crumble into a huge crater. Naruto landed softly on the not so sandy ground and watched the brown mist of dirt clear away from the crater Orochimaru had created when he had fallen.

"Ooo, well done, not as weak as you seem eh brat?" Kyuubi semi-congratulated him in his head.

"Its not over yet Kyuubi." Naruto replied as he looked into the empty crater, Orochimaru was gone.

"Heh, obviously he's going to be behind you so turn around!"

Naruto did so and just in time too, Orochimaru had his long sword out and was about to decapitate him when Naruto ducked, and felt the sword graze off the tiptop of his hair. "I better not be bald old man!" Naruto roared and stabbed a kunai threw his stomach, causing him to yelp in pain as he jumped back holding his wound. The battle went on for ages; Naruto lost track of time as he fought against the Hebi.

----------------------------------------------------

"Hey Ino, Choji! I finally did it! I'm dead! YIPPEEE!" Shikamaru said happily and started to dance around a field of flowers.

"That's nothing to get exited over Shikamaru." Ino said and sweat dropped. Choji was eating a bag of dill pickle chips and was watching the forever sunny and cloudy sky's, while lying on the grass.

"You know how hard I worked to get here? Man, you would never expect how hard it can be to die. All my troubles are gone!" Shikamaru said and flopped down onto the green flowering grass, looking up at the clouds. Ino put her hand on her face and shook her head. As Shikamaru watched the clouds he thought of the way he had died, fighting Gaara. The reason was really stupid, because he knew that Gaara would have never killed his own sister. But at the time, he just couldn't think strait and that's what killed him. He sighed and grabbed a chip out of the bag Choji was devouring, he closed his eyes and smiled, thinking about the life he could now start in his after life. It then suddenly got really dark and he opened his eyes to find Temari staring down at him from behind his head that was currently on the ground.

"Yo, Shika, how's it been?" She asked casually as he got up.

"TEMARI!" He screamed and jumped on her, that's when he finally gave her his sloppy kiss.

------------------------------------------------

"Gaara, I think were there." Kankuro said as they walked threw a long hallway towards a door. They had just gone through the big warm gates and it had led them here, In a dimly lit hallway, with red carpet, doors on all sides, but they some how knew which door to open. "I hope it leads us to Temari, I want to see her so bad." Kankuro said under his breath.

Gaara smiled, he too wanted to see her, along with Shikamaru. He wasn't mad at him for fighting to the death, matter o fact, he was happy with him. It wasn't every day Gaara was beaten in an all out battle by somebody. When they stepped through the door at the end of the hall way they met grassy fields full of flowers and the sky was bright and blue, just enough clouds were in it to sit and watch them float by. Birds were chirping in a tree nearby and a rabbit hopped by Gaara as they walked through the rich grass and flowers. He heard somebody scream out the name Temari and shortly afterwards heard laughing. They rounded a corner of a small forest and sure enough, Temari sat on the ground, locking lips with Shikamaru. Ino and Choji were rolling on the ground laughing their asses off at the sight. Gaara couldn't help but laugh too. Temari was blushing like wild and Shikamaru looked like he could just die and go to heaven…. Which was kind of impossible, since they were already in heaven.

-----------------------------------------------

Naruto kneeled on the ground gasping for air, in front of him, Orochimaru did the same. -Huff, huff- "Heh, wow, you haven't even used Kyuubi yet and your this strong. Have you been training or something?" Orochimaru asked him as they both straitened up, ready to clash again.

-Huff, huff- "Feh, I don't need to use that over grown fur bag to beat you!" Naruto barked and ran at him with his kunai at the ready.

"I heard that you skinny little shit ass!" Kyuubi snarled angrily at Naruto's last comment.

Orochimaru swung his sword, nearly slicing through Naruto's neck. Naruto ducked and conjured up a naruto clone that he got to grabbed hold of Orochimaru, while naruto created a Resengan with another copy of himself and jabbed it into his chest. As Naruto did so however, Orochimaru was able to impale him through the stomach with his sword as he flew backwards because of the Resengan. "AAAHHH!" Naruto screamed in agony as he stumbled backwards and coughed up blood. He fell backwards and fell into a shallow part of the lake, turning it red from his blood. "Damn him, this will be hard now that ive been hurt." Naruto thought angrily and winced as the water lapped at his injury.

"Suck it up brat, its just a small flesh wound." Kyuubi said angrily. "Now get up and destroy that damn snake, I can't have you dying on me. I don't want to go down with you!"

Naruto sighed, he knew he would have to finish this quickly if he wanted to keep on living. He just needed a bit more help though, but everyone was now dead. Or so he thought. Just then that miraculous little dog, Akamaru, flew out of the sand next to Orochimaru and bit the hand holding his sword so hard he let go of it by shock, then ran off with it. Naruto took this opportunity to charge his Rasengan, full force. Orochimaru had created his Chidori and was running at him full force too. This move reminded him so much of the battle against Sasuke three years ago. As they clashed their Rasengan and Chidori together for the second time, a new presence, Naruto noticed, had formed around them. In the purple light of their attacks, Naruto could just make out a couple of figures holding onto his shoulder. Shikamaru smiled and put all his chakura into naruto's arm, Temari, Ino, Choji, Gaara, Kankuro and other figures too, Sakura, Hinata, Jiraiya, Lee, Kakashi, and even Sasuke, all did the same. Then Naruto pushed with all his might to force the Chidori back at Orochimaru himself, sending him splattering to the ground. Blood flew at Naruto as the force from the impact, even sending him flying downwards too, but he fell softly in the floating sand, Gaara's last move to help his dear friend. With that, they all vanished and Naruto fell unconscious.

When he awoke, it was early morning and the sky could be seen clearly above all the sand. Everything was calm. He got up and looked around to see what might have been, Orochimaru, lying on the ground, but there was too much blood and guts to tell for sure. Naruto crawled over to his friend's bodies and took them off one another. They all had peaceful faces, like they hadn't a care in the world anymore.

"Wow kid, I think ive just gained a sandy bit of respect for you after that performance." Kyuubi said to him as Akamaru jumped onto Naruto's lap and whined sadly as they looked at the dead bodies of their late friends.

Naruto sighed and smiled, he knew his friends were always with him, always helping him. He looked into Akamaru's small beady eyes, which looked back into his own multi colored ones. "Well Akamaru my furry little friend, you and I are the only ones left from the hidden village of fallen leaves."
