Chapter 10

The sound woman was now following Awaii further away from Kiba and the twin Sound brothers. While running Awaii was trying to figure out what her next move was going to be, kill this woman, or capture her for questioning. Either way she had to think fast, so she could get back and help Kiba.

Awaii finally stopped running and faced the woman chasing her, "You finally stopped, and realized you were no match for me" The woman smirked, then pulled out an enormous sized sword, making Awaiis 2 Katanas looking like chop sticks, "Lets see who's the better fighter, a Samurai or a Ninja"

Awaii and the woman charged at each other, the sound woman-whom is much taller than Awaii- slammed her sword down on top of Awaii, but Awaii blocked it with both her Katanas just in time, then smiled, "Just…f-from that first attack….I noticed you…your swing with that enormous sword….le-leaves you wide…open"

While still holding the woman's sword with now only one of her Katanas, she quickly used the other one to stab the woman in the stomach. The sound woman dropped her sword, placed her hands over her stomach, looked up at Awaii, and smiled, "Y-you think….you've won" The woman's hand began glowing green, and she started healing her wound while laughing.

This woman's laugh was very high pitched, almost deafening….That was when Awaii noticed it, this woman wanted her to block her giant sword, "Damn it" Awaii mumbled, now rubbing her eyes. Awaiis vision was becoming very blurry, "You…you used-"

"Yes, I used the sound" The woman walked closer to Awaii, whom was now on the ground rubbing her eyes, her Katanas on the ground beside her. The sound woman grabbed Awaii by her long black hair, "you noticed it too late, and now your going to die" She pulled Awaii close to her so she could whisper, "But don't worry, I'll take care of your dog friend" After that she threw Awaii against a tree, "and here I thought you were going to be a challenge"

Awaii was laying on the ground, struggling to get up, "y-you….wont…t-touch him….I-I'm not…finished" She was now standing, her vision still blurry, but that didn't mean she had to give up.

"So you still wanna fight" The woman laughed, "Well I guess it couldn't hurt to play with you a little longer" She picked up her sword, then reached down for Awaiis Katanas, but they suddenly flew over towards the black haired Samurai, "How the hell?"

Awaii smiled a sly smile, "Y-you see…these aren't n-normal daggers, not only cant hey transform, but….they are also picky as to whom uses them" Awaii looked at the blurry woman. Awaiis injuries were only minor, at worst some broken ribs. That was nothing compared to what this bitch was going to have.

"Heh, this should be very interesting, but before we go any further you should probably know that name of your-"

Awaii could care less what her name was, so she ran up to the woman and jammed her Katanas into the woman's chest. As she did this, the woman used the back of her weapon and hit Awaii across the face with it, causing her to fly back again….but this time she didn't hit a tree, or even a rock, someone caught her, and was now holding her.

Awaii looked up, to try and see whom was holding her, but her vision was still blurry. She couldn't tell whom was now holding her, all she knew what that there were 2 of them. Maybe it was Kiba and Akamaru just transformed….she hoped that was who it was.

"Think you might of gone too far with this fight Ayumi" The man holding Awaii asked

'wait…if this guy knew the enemies name, does that mean he wasn't…SHIT! I need to get out of here fast!' Awaii thought to herself. She then began to struggle to get out of the Sound guys arms. She didn't care if this guy just saved her ass, she had to get away…

"Whoa, if you fall you'll get seriously injured" a different yet similar voice said. He seemed to be standing behind the man holding Awaii. "Shesh Ayumi you must of made us look like we were really bad people for her to want to get away from brother"

Ayumi pulled out Awaiis Katanas from her chest and threw them on the ground. She began healing herself, "Rei, Kei you both act as though this woman is something special…when she is only a simple Samurai" She scoffed

Awaiis vision was finally becoming clear enough to see whom was holding her. She looked up and saw that the guy holding her was the guy Kiba was suppose to be fighting.

"You idiot Ayumi….did you even pay any attention to Lord Orochimaru, this woman is no simple Samurai, she is the leader of the Samurai Warriors in Alabasta, meaning if we have her…they stop fighting" One of the brothers said.

Awaii finally got out of the guys grip, her Katanas-once again-shot over towards her, and she held them up pointing her blades at the brothers necks, glaring at them, "What have you done…to Kiba?"

Rei and Kei looked at each other, then back at Awaii and shrugged, "he's dead"

Awaii could feel tears forming in her eyes, "your lying" She didn't care what pain she was in, she jumped up and swung her blades at the twin brothers, slashing them both at the throat.

Blood squirting on her face, she turned and looked at Ayumi, whom looked both shocked and scared, "You will come with me, and heal Kiba or I will make you suffer a hell of a lot more than these two did" Awaii warned

Ayumi nodded, and both women headed to were Kiba was. He was leaning on a tree tied up, and unconscious.

Awaii ran over to him, "Come on…Kiba, wake up!" She looked back at Ayumi, "Heal him NOW!" She shouted

Ayumi walked closer to Kiba, kneeled down and began healing him. Awaii watched her closely, she might not of been a medic, but she could tell the difference between healing and killing someone.

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

Hissori and Red were finished mixing herbs, and Red was beginning to heal the wounded, leaving Hissori out in the hallway, with nothing to do….She hated not having anything to do…

Hissori sighed, "this sucks…" She then looked down at her stomach, it wasn't showing or anything, but it was because of what was inside of her stomach that made her unable to fight in this war.

"You cant still be mad about that" Hissori looked up and saw Shikamaru sitting down beside her, also sighing

"Shikamaru…I understand why you don't want me in the battlefield….but to do nothing, you know I'm definitely not the type of person to do nothing" Hissori said looking at Shikamaru with an annoyed look on her face.

Shikamaru nodded, "Yea I know….that's what makes you an extra troublesome woman"

"I'm serious Shikamaru" she said to him.

He smiled at her, "So am I…but that doesn't change what needs to be done…and what was already done"

"your only saying that because you are-" Hissori stopped talking when she heard a lot of sound coming from outside the hospital doors. She quickly stood up when she realized who's voice it was.

The hospitals doors swung open, and Awaii ran inside them with Kiba on a stretcher, he seemed to be unconscious, and Awaii seemed both pissed and scared.

Kiba was rushed into a hospital room, and Awaii had to wait outside, she looked pretty beat up also, but refused any help. She looked at one of the Suna ANBU, "There is a woman, who is from sound…I brought her here for questioning, there are also a pair of twin brothers still in the forest, they are close to the Sound village, but they are both dead, I want to be there when you question the Sound woman"

Even though Awaii didn't live in Suna, she was still respected in the village, for many reasons, but mainly for bringing Kankuro back to the village after everyone thought he was dead. The ANBU nodded, then left.

Hissori and Shikamaru ran over to Awaii, "What happened?" Hissori asked

Awaii looked at Hissori, her eyes still red from the tears she tried to hard not to shed, and shook her head, "…it was my fault…he was attacked because I wanted to stop this war"

"Awaii, we all want to stop this war, but how is that your fault?" Shikamaru asked, he was concerned for his friend Kiba.

"I wanted to go to Sound, and I was almost there…but we were attack, I had to fight some woman named Ayumi…I think that was her name, while Kiba fought these brother…Kei and Rei, I thought I could kill the woman in enough time…" She looked down, "But I couldn't, then somehow the brothers attacked Kiba…and tied him up to a tree"

"are you okay? Did they hurt you?" Hissori asked, completely worried for both Awaii and Kiba.

Awaii nodded, "I'll be fine…as long as Kiba is okay" She answered.

Awaii went and sat down on a bench, doctors kept coming up to her, to ask if they could check her out, to make sure she wasn't injured too badly, but Awaii being the stubborn person she was, she refused them all and told them to work on Kiba, and not worry about her. After a little while, Akamaru ran into the hospital, he seemed as though he was also injured a little, but not as bad as Kiba.

Akamaru ran over to Awaii and barked, he seemed like he was trying to tell Awaii something, but she couldn't understand what he was saying…or trying to say. But it seemed like Shikamaru knew, because he quickly stood up and nodded. Without saying anything him and Akamaru ran out of the hospital. Awaii was about to follow them but was stopped by Hissori.

"You are in no condition to be fighting anyone….your staying" Hissori said, in her demanding voice…

" I cant stay here, we should go and help…." Awaii said, but Hissori just shook her head.

As much as she wanted to go, she couldn't, she knew that Shikamaru and Akamaru worked well together…they were no Kiba and Akamaru, but they still could understand each other a little, well enough to know what to do.

"Why aren't you wanting to go out there, that is your fiancé who just lef-"

"I do, but I cant" Awaii looked at Hissori confused, and Hissori added, "I cant because….it wouldn't hurt just me…" She then looked back down at her stomach

Awaii kinda understood what she was saying…a little, well maybe…Awaii was a little slow when it came to stuff like this, "what do you mean….of course you wont be alone, I'll be going with you, and I wouldn't let anything happen to you, if you don't want to come, you don't have to, but you cant hold me back"

Hissori sighed, "You really are slow…" She looked back up at Awaii, "I cant go, because I'm….well I'm gonna have a baby"

Awaii nearly fell to the ground when she heard the news, " Are you…serious" She then realized what she had said earlier, "I'm so sorry Hissori, I didn't know, and well didn't mean it….I shouldn't of said that, it was completely out of line"

Hissori smiled at Awaii, "its okay, your just upset…about Kiba, which is why you cant leave, you have to stay here and stay with Kiba…he's gonna need you when he wakes up"

Awaii nodded, still kinda dazed about Hissori having a baby, but she decided to stay back…and wait, only because she had to.

-End of chapter, okay, will Kiba be okay…what kind of information will Ayumi have, and how did the twin brothers injury Kiba so badly….they MIGHT be answered in the next chapter….so until next time, sorry once again if this chapter sucked…but its my story, and I'll make it how I want…just kidding, well kinda…anyways, until next time-
