Wow, not too many reviews. Anyways, thank you guys for your support. This might be the semi-finale chapter. It's going out to everyone who supported me along the way. God bless you guys!
Please remember, Chapter 28
'I-I can't move!' she thought as the ball came closer, her vision moved towards her friends' bodies as they were disappearing into the flames as it was coming closer to her.
'Sasuke-kun, Naruto, Anyone, help me' she thought, closing her eyes, already feeling the heat which radiated from the fireball reaching up to her.
She squeezed her eyes as she felt it getting closer, she gasped once she felt herself being carried away, going to the side as fast as her body can.
"What's going on!?" she asked herself, noticing that she was floating in midair. Then all of the sudden, she found herself in Lee's arms and Naruto's hands were on her shoulders.
"Good. Go help the rest" Lee said, helping Sakura to her feet. She kept watching Naruto go back and forth between the others, forcing his Chakura into their system to get them out of the Itachi's illusion.
When they were out of it, everyone fell to their knees, exhausted of the experience they went through. Naruto stood in front of them, standing up against Itachi.
"You didn't see that coming, now, did ya?" he said, grinning victoriously. Itachi smirked, "You sure have improved, Naruto-kun" he said, looking at everyone else. Sasuke was the first to get up on his feet.
"Bastard, I'm going to finish you off" he said, taking his stance. Everyone managed to pull themselves together and take their stance against Itachi.
Sakura was behind them all, standing with Lee. The latter noticed the pink-haired girl's anxiety as she was spacing out. "Are you ok?" he asked, looking worriedly at her. She looked at him and nodded, "Yes, I-I'm ok" she said, looking at the ground.
"That's who you've always been, that's who you are and that's who you always will be, Sakura, a burden."
His words rung in her ears, making her look at the ground and narrow her eyes. "Sakura-san," Lee's voice brought her back, making her look at him, "whatever Itachi said, don't let it get to you. Everything he said was a lie, got it?" he said, reassuringly nodding at her. She stared at him for a while, blinked, then nodded, "Right!" she exclaimed, smiling before turning her head towards Itachi.
"Let's kick his butt" she said, both she and Lee took their stance.
"This is going to be one hell of a fight" Lee said, smirking. Everyone was prepared and ready attack, Lee and Sakura being in the back behind Kankurou and Temari. Shino, Hinata and Kiba stood in the front of them, behind Sasuke and Naruto who led the team.
"You'll pay for this, Itachi" Sasuke said, glaring at his brother and activating his Sharingan, glancing at Naruto who was smirking. "Everyone ready?" Naruto said, making everyone ready to attack.
"Finish him!"
Deidara was flying on his bird, taking a glance at Ino who was held by the bird's tail. He turned his head back to the front to see the hospital, not too far away.
"Are you ready to be dropped, cousin? Hmmm" he said, chuckling as he ordered his clay bird to fly at full speed.
Shikamaru, Neji, Tenten and Chouji were following Deidara on their feet, running and pacing, jumping from roof to roof as fast as they can.
"Damn it, Neji," Tenten said, "we're falling behind!" she exclaimed, glancing at Neji who was ahead of her and Chouji, trying as hard as they can to follow up with Shikamaru.
Both of them were out of Chakura, "We haven't got the chance to recover from our encounter with Gaara." Neji told Shikamaru who nodded, panting. "We have to get to Ino no matter what. I won't let her die" Shikamaru said, stomping his foot on one of the roofs, increasing his speed.
Chouji and Tenten were starting to catch up to the two. Tenten noticed that Neji was starting to get exhausted. "Neji, pull yourself together!" Tenten said, causing Neji to glare at her. "I'm okay!" he said, increasing his pace. She rolled her eyes and increased her pace, making Chouji do the same.
"Almost there!" Shikamaru mumbled, as he was a couple of buildings away from the hospital. Suddenly, he gasped, eyes widened.
"SHIT!" Shikamaru exclaimed, causing everyone to look where he was looking. Deidara was looking back at them. He raised his index and middle finger in a salute.
"Let's see how fast you are when it comes to helping a friend!" he yelled, ordering his bird to let go of Ino.
And it did.
"INO!" Shikamaru yelled, pacing as fast as he could. Chouji, Neji and Tenten sped up as well. To them, it was a horrifying scene, seeing Ino's body drop from hundreds of feet, towards the hospital.
"Damn, we won't make it in time!"
"SHUT UP, TENTEN!"
Shikamaru lost his patience for the first time in years. It was all in slow motion, as he was only two buildings away from her, but he calculated it.
She would hit the ground before he ever makes it to her.
"INO!" he yelled, almost reaching for her. Ino's unconscious body hit the building with a loud crash, making all three gasp and stop in their place, one building away from the Hospital.
Tenten was at the verge of tears while Chouji and Neji were in total shock. Shikamaru stood there, shocked of what just happened.
"INO, NO!!" he yelled, jumping towards the building. When he reached where she was, he narrowed his eyes.
"It can't be" he mumbled, the others joining him. "Shikamaru!" Neji said, looking at where Ino fell. Tenten and Chouji looked at where the others were looking and heaved a sigh.
"It's a miracle!" Tenten mumbled, looking at Ino who was lying on a cushion of sand. Shikamaru looked all around; there was only one person who could control of sand.
"Gaara." he mumbled, looking everywhere. The others started searching for a sign of the ultimate weapon. Deidara, who was still hovering over the area, cursed while looking at Ino's body.
"You had to ruin everything, ne, Gaara?" he said, angrily. He raised his vision from them to the space in front of him. His eyes widened once he saw what looked like a brownish spear coming at him from below. He bent backwards, dodging it.
"What the hell?" he mumbled, looking at the spear which flew a couple of feet away before falling downwards. The spear dissolved into grains of sand. 'It's made of sand' Deidara turned his vision towards the source of that spear.
"You." he mumbled, looking at Gaara who was standing a couple of buildings away from both Deidara and the others.
"Shikamaru," Chouji said, pointing at the building. "there he is!" he exclaimed, causing everyone to look at Gaara who was standing still, arms crossed.
He was glaring at Deidara while turning his head at the guys, quickly shifting his vision towards them.
Gaara was staring at Shikamaru all the time, as if he was trying to tell him something. Shikamaru wasn't quite getting what he was trying to say, but he knew what he wanted to do.
"Neji," Shikamaru started, not breaking the eye contact with Gaara. "make sure you stop Deidara." he continued, taking a couple of steps towards Ino's body, moving his arms beneath it and lifted her, watching the sand fly towards its owner and into the his gourd.
"I'm taking her to the hospital. Stop him with everything you can!" he said, looking at Deidara, before moving his vision at Gaara, nodding. Shikamaru jumped off of the roof and towards the hospital entrance. Neji, Tenten and Chouji looked up at Deidara, "Can I ask a question?" Chouji said, causing Tenten and Neji to look at him. Chouji kept his eyes glued at Deidara, narrowing them.
"How are we going to attack him from that distance?!" he asked, causing Tenten and Neji to look at each other, gulping.
"He's right, you know" Tenten said, looking up at Deidara. They all narrowed their eyes, putting their hope in the one they were originally after, Gaara.
"Finish him!" he yelled, forming his seal. "Kage Bunshin no Jutsu" he yelled, creating two shadow clones, helping him making Rasengan in both hands. He charged at Itachi with full strength,
"Rasengan!" he yelled, thrusting his palms towards Itachi, throwing the spheres at him. Itachi easily managed to dodge them and formed seals, exhaling small balls of fire towards each and every one of them. Everyone managed to dodge the balls, one of them was going towards Shino who made a bugs shield, protecting himself. The one going towards Hinata fell in front of her legs, not hitting her. She looked up at him and narrowed her eyes.
"That's it!" she said, activating her Byakugan, and ran towards him. "Jūken!" she yelled, sending her hands towards him. 'If I could only land one hit' she thought, thrusting her Chakura-charged hands towards him, but he was dodging it easily. 'Damn it, he's fast' she said, sending one last hit at him which landed on him. A puff of smoke appeared in his place.
"Kage Bunshin?" she said, turning around to find him. He was standing a couple of feet away from them. Kiba decided to finally join the battle. "Shikyaku no Jutsu" he said, transforming himself into his animalistic self; longer claws and on all fours
Akamaru jumped on his owner's back. "Jūjin Bunshin" he said, causing Akamaru to transform himself into a Kiba clone. They both jumped in the air and slapped their palms against each other's, giving both the torque to spin.
"Gatsūga!" he yelled, his and Akamaru's body turning into small drills which spun against each other, forming one huge drill. They charged at Itachi who couldn't avoid it and was sent a couple of feet away. They all looked at Kiba and grinned, giving him thumbs up.
"Good job, Kiba" Naruto said, turning back to face Itachi who was slowly getting up, looking at all of them. 'That's impossible!' he thought, not believing that he's not able to defeat a couple of teenagers.
Kankurou opened two of his scrolls and laid them on the ground. "Come out, Karasu! Kuroari!" he yelled, causing the two puppets to appear in a puff of smoke.
"Dokugiri Zuyoku, Baribari Shikaku Renpatsu" Kankurou said, performing the two's technique, Poison Fog, Blind Spot Destroyer, As Karasu fogged the area where Itachi stood with smokescreen, blinding him.
'What's going on?' Itachi asked, looking around. 'This is bad' he thought as he noticed Kuroari's poison needles heading right towards him, causing him to smirk. 'I guess he's forgotten that I possess Sharingan' he said, flash-stepping a couple of feet to the side.
Kankurou narrowed his eyes, "That didn't work!" he said, turning his attention towards Sasuke who was forming seals and standing a couple of feet away from his brother.
"Katon, Ryuuka no jutsu" he yelled, exhaling a dragon of flames towards his brother who managed to jump, dodging the attack; however, while Itachi was in midair, he noticed Temari running towards him.
"Daikamaitachi no Jutsu!" Temari yelled, sending sharp winds towards the Uchiha with her huge fan, cutting him in several places. Itachi's eyes widened, while he was recovering in mid air, he felt someone's presence behind him.
"Kage Buyo!" Lee yelled, doing his famous Shadow dance, appearing beneath Itachi's body in the same trajectory. Itachi turned his head to the side, eyes widened.
"You couldn't see it with your Sharingan, did you?" Lee said, wrapping Itachi in his arm bandages. Lee grabbed Itachi in a bear hug and pile-drove him to the ground, spinning rapidly.
"Omote renge!" he yelled, before hitting the ground with a huge crash, causing the sand to dust the area, making it almost foggy. The rest of the gang stood still, watching whether Itachi was finished or not.
"Did we do it?" Sakura asked, narrowing her eyes at the scene. "I can't see a thing." Kankurou exclaimed, using his hand to protect his eyes from the sand. Hinata activated her Byakugan and looked around.
"He's not there!" she looked all over the place; there was no sign of the Uchiha, causing everyone to be in total shock. Temari opened her fan and swung it, clearing the area from the dust. When it was cleared, they all noticed that Lee was the only one standing there.
"He's gone!" she mumbled, holding the fan to the side. Lee was as surprised as everyone else. He was sure he attacked Itachi, but he was nowhere in sight. Sasuke gritted his teeth.
"Itachi, C'mon out!" he yelled, turning around. "Are you afraid of your own little brother?" he yelled on top of his lungs. Everyone was on full alert, taking on different sides of the area.
Sakura was looking around when she looked at Lee who was already exhausted. "Lee, are you alright?" she asked, narrowing her eyes. He looked at her, grinned and gave her a thumb up. "I'm fine, don't worry" he said, reassuringly nodding at her. She nodded back, before turning her head to the side, looking for Itachi. Lee smiled and turned his head the other way, but something in Sakura's direction caught his attention, causing him to quickly turn his head towards her. He ran towards her, warning her.
"Sakura, Watch out!" Lee said, causing Sakura to look at him. Itachi was right behind her, swinging his hand down at her. Everything happened so fast as Sakura turned around and blocked his attack. Lee stopped in the middle of his movement and gaped.
"When you said I didn't save everyone," she said, smirking, "you were wrong" Sakura said before pushing Itachi away from her and doing a couple of back flips to stand a couple of feet away. She raised her fist and hit the ground which cracked at impact, the cracks moving towards Itachi. To his misfortune, he was standing near the cliff. Itachi took a glance behind him before looking at Sakura, smirking.
"See you around" he said, falling backwards down the cliff. Sakura gasped and looked down the cliff to see him falling down.
"Oh no, you won't!" Sasuke yelled, running towards the cliff. Sakura turned around just in time to see him jump down the cliff towards his older brother.
"Sasuke, no!" she yelled, trying to prevent him from following his brother but no avail, he was already down the cliff.
Itachi's eyes widened once he saw his brother coming down at him. "Sasuke." he mumbled, narrowing his eyes, looking at his brother who was coming down at him
"It's not over yet" he yelled, getting a grip of his brother's ankles, "Hayabusa Otoshi!" Sasuke yelled, still holding his brother's ankles. He wrapped his ankles around Itachi's waist and drove him head first into the ground. Everyone gaped once Itachi hit the ground with a loud crash. Sakura feared the worst.
"Sasuke-kun!" she yelled, getting up and going to the side of the mountain where the main walkway to the mountain was. Everyone followed her quickly as they were all worried about Sasuke.
Sasuke struggled to get up; the power of the impact was strong enough to hurt him. He leaned on the rocks beside him, looking at his brother.
"It's over" he mumbled, looking at Itachi's unconscious body. He leaned against the rocks, panting. 'I'm out of Chakura' he thought, letting his body slide against the rocks and to the ground, causing him to grimace; the rocks probably hurt his back.
"Sasuke-kun!" he heard a familiar voice calling his name, making him turn his head to the side. "Sakura" he mumbled, smiling as he saw her running towards him, her usual worried expression was on her face. Naruto was the first to get there after Sakura, followed by everyone else.
"Is he dead?" he asked, looking at Sasuke who was already in Sakura's arms. He shook his head, closing his eyes as Sakura hugged him. Hinata took a couple of steps towards Itachi's body and activated her Byakugan.
"No, he's not dead. But he's out of Chakura. I bet his Genjutsu made him lose all the Chakura he had" Hinata exclaimed, causing Naruto to look at Lee and grin.
"Ha, what did I tell ya?" Naruto said, punching Lee in the shoulder. The latter yelled. "HEY, Watch the shoulder!" he said, rubbing his shoulder. Naruto gave Lee a quizzical looked before shaking his head and turning his attention towards Itachi's body.
"Why didn't he avoid your attack?" Kiba asked, looking at Sasuke. The latter smirked and looked at his brother. "By the time he fell off the cliff, he was, like Hinata said, out of Chakura. Not to mention that overusing Sharingan would hurt your eyesight. He was practically blind and couldn't calculate when the impact was to happen" he said, closing his eyes and sighing heavily. Sakura held him closer to her.
"What are we going to do now?" Sakura asked, looking up at Naruto. The latter kept looking at Itachi before turning his attention at Sasuke who was glaring at his brother.
"What's your suggestion, Sasuke?" Naruto asked, deciding to give Sasuke the decision of what to do with his aniki. Sasuke looked up at him, and blinked a couple of times before turning his eyes towards his brother.
"We'll take him to Tsunade, she might figure out what to do with him" he said, getting up with the help of Sakura, leaning his arm around her shoulder. They all went quiet for a minute, before hearing a loud crash in the distance.
"What was that?" Kankurou asked, turning around. They all widened their eyes, remembering:
"I'll make sure Ino is dropped at the hospital" he said, laughing as the bird flew away.
Naruto widened his eyes, looking at Lee. "Ino!" they both said, running off towards the sound. Sasuke decided to join them, but was stopped by Sakura. Temari, Kankurou and Hinata looked at him.
"Sakura, I have to go!" Sasuke said, leaning off of her. "No, If you go like this, you'll be a burden to us" Temari said, following Naruto and Lee. Kankurou and Hinata followed her, leaving Shino and Kiba with Sakura and Sasuke. "C'mon, man," Kiba said, walking towards Sasuke, taking him from Sakura's arms and helping him to walk.
"let's take you to the hospital!" he said, stopping in his tracks when he noticed Sasuke's smirk. "No, we're not going to take you to the hospital" Kiba exclaimed, causing the three to gape at him.
"He's hurt, and he must go to the hospital" Sakura said, angrily. Kiba shook his head. "Deidara said that he's going to the hospital, that's where the fight is. Going there is what Sasuke wants" he said, looking at Sasuke who was dumbfounded. Shino looked at Kiba and nodded, "For the first time in years. We agree on something" he said, keeping his face stern.
Kiba nodded and looked at Sakura, "You're a med-nin, right? You can help him. See ya!" he said, running towards the fight with Shino, leaving the two alone.
Sasuke was glaring at the two as they ran off, "Sasuke-kun, I know how bad you want to go and help, so do I. but you're hurt, and I can't leave you behind" she said, helping him to sit down on the ground.
"I'll heal you as much as I can, then I'll take you later to the hospital" she said, starting the procedure. Sasuke looked at her and nodded, closing his eyes.
'I'm counting on you, guys!' he thought, worried about his friend as he felt Sakura's Chakura heal his body.
Gaara and Deidara were having a staring contest for they were staring at each other for the past couple of minutes.
"What? You're afraid to attack, Gaara? Hmmm" Deidara said, smirking. Gaara narrowed his eyes, his lips curving into a small smirk.
"I'm not the one standing up high, afraid to come down" he said, causing Deidara to grit his teeth.
"You little…" he mumbled, glaring at Gaara who didn't flinch. "Alright, it's between you and me, Monster!" Deidara said, causing Gaara to glare even more at him. He looked at Neji, Tenten and Chouji. "Only you and me" he said, as his bird disappeared in a puff of smoke, dropping him from a distance and landing swiftly on one of the roofs.
"Meet me at the field, two kilometers from here" Deidara said, running towards the Konoha forest. Gaara knew that green field in the middle of the forest, realizing what a great mistake Deidara just made.
Gaara skipped his steps, jumping from roof to roof following Deidara. He had no idea why he wanted to fight him so bad, probably because he was the reason everything's messed up, maybe because Deidara was the reason behind him breaking Ino's arm, or maybe because he's injured her so badly with his clay specialty.
'I'll make sure you pay, Deidara' he said, doing a flash step to transport faster into the area he was supposed to meet Deidara at.
Neji, Tenten and Chouji stood in their places, watching Gaara make his way towards his destination.
"Do you think we should help him?" Tenten said, looking at her mates. Neji shook his head. "No, you heard him" he said, looking at her, "I think it's personal" he said, causing Chouji to nod.
"You're right, I don't think we should get in between, besides," he said, walking to the edge of the rooftop. "Gaara has his sand to protect him, he'll never lose" Chouji said, jumping down. Tenten sighed and looked at Neji.
"I thought we were after Gaara" she said, crossing her arms. Neji sighed and looked at the ground. "Well, perhaps we were after the wrong guy. C'mon, let's go tell Shikamaru" he said, following Chouji. Tenten sighed frustratingly and scratched her head.
"Eh, this is complicated" she said, taking a couple of steps towards the edge and following her friends.
'Where is he?' Gaara thought as he stepped onto the wide green area. He took a couple of steps into the field, standing in the middle.
"Deciding to back out?" he mumbled, knowing that wherever Deidara was, he'd be able to hear him. A breeze blew from the side, making the trees whiff and the grass beneath him move along with it. He smirked when he felt a familiar presence, a couple of feet behind him. Gaara turned around and narrowed his eyes once he saw Deidara, standing still in front of him with a smirk on his face.
"So, here we are!" he exclaimed, spreading his arms to the side. He smiled once he saw the sands float around Gaara's body, knowing that the latter couldn't wait to fight.
"It's in your blood, isn't it?" Deidara said, smirking. Killing people. You live for it!" he exclaimed, chuckling. Gaara narrowed his eyes,
"When it comes to killing people like you, I can't help but love it" he said, ordering his sands to move towards Deidara who threw a ball of clay in front of him which grew into a huge wall standing between the two of them. The sands hit the wall, but that wasn't enough. The sand traveled around it, going towards Deidara.
"You should know that you're very slow, Gaara" Deidara said, causing Gaara's eyes to widened, realizing that Deidara used the wall to cover for his transportation. Deidara grew a clay snake out of his sleeve. It quickly moved from his sleeve towards Gaara's ankle and upwards, moving up his body until it surrounded it completely, choking him.
Deidara smirked and raised two fingers in front of him, "Squeeze him to death" he said, ordering the snake to squeeze harder around Gaara who was smirking. Deidara's eyes widened when Gaara disappeared into grains of Sand, leaving the snake on the ground.
'Expected' Deidara thought, scanning the area; in front of him, behind him, on the sides. 'Nothing' he thought, looking at the ground. His eyes widened when he noticed a shadow forming on the ground, a round shadow which was getting bigger by the second. Deidara looked up to see a huge boulder coming down at him.
Deidara gasped, before it crashed down at him. Gaara, who was standing between the trees in the forest, took a couple of steps into the field and towards the boulder.
"Physically, it would crush you if you stayed beneath it" Deidara said, laughing. Gaara swore, looking at the sky. Deidara was flying on his clay bird with his arms crossed.
"I'm thankful for being created with two special qualities: quick and wicked" he said, laughing. Gaara kept glaring at him while sending his sands up to him, attacking him from every direction. Deidara's bird maneuvered between the sands, flying to the sides, flipping and turning around, causing Gaara to get full control of the sand with his hands. He thrust his palm towards Deidara and closed his hand, trying to get his sand to get a grip on the flying bastard.
"Keep your eyes to the ground, Gaara. Don't look up too high. You might miss what's going on down there" Deidara commented, laughing wickedly. Gaara narrowed his eyes and looked at the level of his eyes which widened at the scene.
Gaara looked in front of him, turning his head to the side, looking behind him and turning around again, surprised of what surrounded him in a matter of seconds
"Don't look too surprised, you're killing the fun" Deidara said, pleased to see Gaara's expression.
He was surrounded by clay creatures; he was in the middle of a circle formed by explosive clay two-meters-high, faceless-legged statues created by Deidara. He stood still once the statues started moving towards him, closing in on him.
"As you know, I believe that Art is a blast" he said, smirking as Gaara was completely surrounded by the creatures.
"There's no place to run." Gaara mumbled, looking around him for a way out, for an opening between them, but they were well organized, making sure no gap is left between each statue. Gaara sighed, crossed his arms and closed his eyes, knowing Deidara's next move.
Raising his index and middle finger in front of him, Deidara smirked, "Katsu!" He said, causing the creatures to explode, wiping out everything at a 50 meters radius.
He watched from above as the area was wiped out clean, no sign of anyone in the area, except for a lying figure on the ground. "C'mon, Kazekage, you really want me to believe that this is your end, dying without a fight?" he said, narrowing his eyes at the figure. He noticed that it was Gaara. He glared at him, noticing that he wasn't moving. He used his scope to zoom at his chest.
"He's not breathing" he exclaimed, noticing that Gaara's chest wasn't moving. Deidara jumped down off of his bird. He walked step by step towards the Kazekage's body, looking patronizingly at him.
"So," he said, kneeling next to his unconscious body. "this is the end, eh?" he said, smirking. He widened his eyes when in a sudden; Gaara opened his eyes and got a grip on Deidara, strangling him.
"Do you think something like this would finish me off?" he heard Gaara say. Deidara looked up ahead, noticing that there was another Gaara standing in the distance, realizing that the one holding him was a Shadow, probably a sand clone. The one in the distance looked back at him, smirking, before raising his arm in the air, kneeling and slamming his hands against the ground.
"Ryūsa Bakuryū" Gaara yelled, forcing his sand to turn into Quicksand in the Style of a Waterfall, covering the entire area in an ocean of Sand. Deidara, horrified with the scene, tried to break lose from the Gaara clone's grip, but Gaara used his sand to surround him and completely hold him in place.
Gaara took one last look at Deidara before raising both his arms towards him, "Sabaku Taisō!" he yelled, closing his hands. The ocean of Sand started moving towards Deidara in a wave-like motion. He screamed once the Sand covered his body entirely, crushing him beneath.
Gaara stood up, panting. That technique forced him to use a great amount of Chakura, not to mention the amount of Chakura he used earlier that day. He panted, looking at his ocean of Sand, looking for any sign of the blonde.
"You really want me to believe that this is your end," he said, taking a deep breath and exhaling it. "dying without a fight?" he continued, using the same phrase that Deidara used to mock him earlier. After the sand dissolved to the ground, Gaara noticed Deidara, lying down, unable to move. Deidara turned his head to the side, looking at Gaara with widened eyes, trying to move his hand but no avail.
"G-Gaara," he mumbled, grimacing. "why are you fighting?" he asked, breathing heavily. Gaara narrowed his eyes, "She was hurt." he started, talking about Ino. "I won't forgive myself. I won't forgive you for what you've done as well" he said, glaring at him.
Deidara chuckled, "Y-You," he said, taking his last breaths and pointing at him. "y-you won!" he said, his hand falling to the ground. Gaara took a couple of deep breaths before secretly smiling.
"It's over" he said, gulping. He closed his eyes, touching his head. The area was starting to look blurry to him. He blinked a couple of times to clear his vision, but the headache was giving him a hard time. 'I'm completely out of Chakura' he thought, closing his eyes. He tried to keep himself standing but couldn't. Gaara fell to his knees, taking a deep breath.
"Ino," he mumbled, falling face down on the ground. "I-I'm sorry" he mumbled, closing his eyes, going into complete darkness.
To be continued…
