Chapter 18: Itachi Vs the Sound
After Ishiku and the group left the area Itachi began his chase on Orochimaru hoping to catch him before he got back to his hideout.
"hmm looks like I'm being followed, oh well if catches up to me he will have to face them first" Orochimaru quicken his past as fast as he could, but gaining speed was hard for him due to his lake of strength from the last battle.
Orochimaru arrived at his hideout and quickly got inside only to be greeted by his servants.
"Lord Orochimaru are you ok?" asked one of the servants.
"I'll be fine, but I've been followed I want you four to take care of the purser"
"As you wish Lord Orochimaru"
Shortly after Orochimaru arrived, Itachi approached the entrance of the lair. As he walked through the corridors of the lair he noticed that he was being watched but he kept on going. As he reached a large opening his followers appeared in front of him.
"Man if we knew that it would be him we were supposed to take care of we would of gotten more help, but too late for the now" Said one of the servants as the four of them came out f the shadows.
"So Orochimaru has sent his dogs to do his work for him them, how pathetic"
"Who the hell are you calling dogs you bastard" shouted the largest one of the servants who was ready to make the first move.
"Calm down fatty or you will get yourself killed" Said the female servant.
"Tayuya, Jirobo stop fighting or both of you will get killed" Said the servant with two heads.
"You guys are a useless bunch if you constantly keep fighting with each other" Said Itachi
"That's it I had with this guy I bags killing him" yelled Jirobo as he charged at Itachi.
"Useless" Said Itachi as he blocked Jirobo punch with ease and lifted him off the floor gazing into his eyes.
"Tsukiyomi" Itachi said as he trapped Jirobo in his Genjutsu, throwing him aside while he lay unconscious trapped in his nightmares.
"Dumb fat ass, that's what you get for charging in like that, come on you two let's just hurry up and finish him off" Said Tayuya as she pulled out he flute and summoned her minions.
"Kidomaru keep him at bay while i try to merge with him" Yelled Sakon.
"Got it" Kidomaru then shot several webs at Itachi as he just stood then not even trying to dodge the attack.
"Alright then Tayuya trap him in your Genjutsu quickly"
Tayuya then started to play a tune on her flute, but her Genjutsu backfired on her and trapped her instead.
"What the how did I trap myself" Tayuya screamed as her Genjutsu started to take effect as she started to suffer from hallucinations.
"Genjutsu is useless against me"
"Well then try reversing this" Sakon yelled as he begun merging with Itachi.
"Now you die" Sakon then begun destroying Itachi's cells and organs, but Itachi's body vanished leaving Sakon trapped in the web.
"Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu" Suddenly out of nowhere Sakon was hit head on by the flames leaving him to burn in the web.
"Dammit he's too strong, best get out of here then" But before Kidomaru could escape Itachi appeared in front of him. Kidomaru froze on the spot and fell to the floor after accidently gazing into Itachi's eyes.
"Pathetic bunch of fighters" but before Itachi could move on he heard someone approaching.
"Itachi Uchiha slayer of his clan, it is an honour to meet you but it seems I have been sent to finish you off" Said the stranger as he walked out of the shadows. His appearance was not like a normal person as he had bones growing out of his skin.
"And you are"
"I'm Kimimaro loyal servant to Orochimaru, and the strongest one of his servants"
"Well then let's see if any of that is true then"
Meanwhile back at the village Sasuke had finally woken up, looking around he noticed he was in the hospital and that Ishiku was sitting in the seat next to his bed. Realising what had just happened.
"Ishiku where's Sakura is she ok"
Ishiku sat there in silence until he finally looked at Sasuke to give him the news.
"I'm sorry Sasuke but Orochimaru got away taken Sakura with him"
Sasuke couldn't believe it, she was gone and he couldn't do anything to protect her, Tears begun to fall from his eyes. After pulling himself together he looked at Ishiku who was looking at the ground.
"Is there anyone out there looking for her"
"There is one person who went after him"
"Who"
"Your brother" Ishiku then turned his head towards Sasuke, as he angry look appeared in his eyes.
"Why the hell did he go after him, why is he trying to save her?"
"I don't know, but you should rest for now, after you have had some rest we will discuss with Kakashi on what we will do about it" Ishiku got up and walked out the room leaving Sasuke to rest. But Sasuke waited till the coast was clear. He got out of bed and got changed into his cloths. Jumping out the window and leaving the village.
"Sakura please be alive, I won't let Orochimaru or Itachi get their hands on you"
