12 Ways to Kill Sasuke
Plan 6 Sasuke-kun, I Will Try My Best to Defeat You!
Rock Lee's Point of View
Previously…
"WHAT?! ME?! Oh I am honored Shikamaru-kun! I will do my best to not fail you." He said shaking Shikamaru's hand. "First I must start training. I will be practicing my Taijutsu for the next few hours but fear not, for I will be back tomorrow earlier than anyone else."
"Um, that's not necessary Lee really." Shikamaru reasoned.
"No." Lee held up his hand. "I must. I am off!" and with that the idiot left the house.
Now…
I ran into the darkness of the night. I decided that my goal for the night would be 400 laps around the village backwards on my hands. It was already 9:00 pm so I would have to work fast.
I made it to 250 by 1:00. It would only be a matter of time before I was done. I sped up a little. I was starting to get the hang of it.
"389, 390, 391, ……OW!" I bumped into something and that something had just pushed me flat on my face. Now I would have to start all over and I was running out of time. I looked up to see who had ruined all of my progress. It was Sasuke.
"Lee." He said
"Um, can I help you Sasuke? I am on a very important mission right now."
"You better not be thinking of bothering me today. I know you guys are up to something and I don't know what it is or why me but you better stop. I don't feel like being annoyed everyday by idiots like you."
"I will take that as an insult if you don't mind. My friends and I are not idiots and I will prove it! With fierce determination I can accomplish anything!" He gave me a dark glare and spun around in the other direct. He walked away from me without another word. I wasn't going to let him insult my friends like that.
I charged at him. My fist was ready to clash with the back of his head. He turned toward me, quickly, not wasting anytime, he threw a punch at me. I dodged it easily. I kicked at him and he blocked it with his forearm. He backed up. I remembered that Uchiha's were long distance fighters. I would have to get closer. I ran towards him as fast as I could my punches were all blocked and so were his. I managed to kick him in the side of his head. He staggered backwards in pain. I didn't intend to kill him just yet. I had to prove myself to him first and win our small confrontation. He had other ideas though. I saw that familiar ball of lightning form in his palm. He charged at me full speed. I felt the electrical surge as his hand went straight through my chest.
When I came to I couldn't feel anything below me. I remembered my hard impact on the ground but now I could no longer feel the ground. Only cold eerie air that surrounded me. I opened my eyes slowly. The sunlight blinded me as I peeled my eyelids apart. I was still in the park where I had met Sasuke. Only he was nowhere to be found and I could tell it had been hours since hour fight.
I couldn't feel my arms or my legs. I could only feel my now lightweight head. I looked down at myself. I saw my translucent body and my see through hands. I realized that I was now a ghost. I lowered my head. What would Gai-sensei and Neji and Naruto and everyone else think. Shikamaru had faith in me. I floated to the Hyuuga Estate slowly. I took my time to come up with something to say.
Just then I got an idea. "BINGO!" I was going to kill Sasuke today after all. I would not let them down. I knew that I would have to break my promise to Shikamaru. I could not return to the house without completing my mission. I would not be the first one there but I would accomplish something.
I decided to um float as fast as I could into town. It would be risky to let people see me. After all, we were doing this in secret. "Gai-sensei. SENSEI!" I saw Gai-sensei coming down the street. It was still pretty early and it was sort of dark. I kept the side of the buildings in the shadows as he ran up to me. I was forced to explain my misfortune to him. "…and then he used his chidori on me and that's how I ended up like this. Please help me Gai-sensei."
"Oh Lee that's terrible. Of course I'll help. What do you need me to do?"
"OH THANK YOU SENSEI! I AM TRULY IN YOUR DEBT!"
"Aw don't worry about it Lee. You are my student after all." I rushed forward to hug him but fell right to the ground behind him. "Don't worry Lee we will definitely get you back to your original being."
I sighed. "Lets go find Sasuke." I said as I drifted slowly back to the dark shadows.
"Ok then lets go Lee." Sensei immediately started running. I went as fast as I could after him. I was going slower than a snail. It turns out that ghosts can only float at 2mph, tops. I thought 'Ug this is going to be a long day.'
We finally found him sitting by a tree in the park, about a quarter of a mile from where we fought. How horrible. Who wastes all that time sitting when they could be training.
"Ok Gai-sensei." I whispered. "You have to go over to Sasuke so that we can challenge him to a fight."
"Ok Lee."
"Now, IKU." We charged into action. Well, he charged, and I swayed in the wind pitifully towards them.
"Sasuke, I am here on a mission. There is no way that I will back down. You might have destroyed my body but even you can't take my soul. I might not be able to fight anymore, but someone else can do it for me. I am determined to complete my mission some how even if it means just watching. I believe that I can transfer my determination to Gai-sensei and that he will channel it into his abilities and that will double his power. WE CANNOT LOSE WITH THAT KIND OF DETERMINATION!!"
"Enough with the damn speech Lee. It sounds like your trying to write a persuasive essay. So annoying. You really think that you and your sensei can beat me just because your both determined?"
"OF COURSE WE CAN BECAUSE WITH DETERMINT…"
"SHUT THE HELL UP!" He snapped at me.
"Ok Gai-sensei GOOD LUCK!" I gave him a thumbs up and he was off but before he even got there Sakura was in his way. He stopped suddenly.
"I'm sorry Gai-sensei, but I CANNOT LET YOUR HURT SASUKE!"
"S-s-sa-SAKURA-CHAN!" I was surprised that she came.
"I'm sorry Lee. I know that you want to complete this so called mission but I cannot let anyone harm Sasuke. So, Sensei punch me instead because your going to have to finish me off first."
"Sakura, move I can fight my own battles." Sasuke hissed in her ear.
"Sorry Sasuke but I know Naruto's plan and I can't let him succeed." She said back in a calm even tone.
"I cannot, no, I refuse to hit an innocent female." Gai-sensei decided to quit. I thought that was a good idea because I didn't want to involve anyone else especially if it was Sakura-chan. We retreated. Gai-sensei and I said our goodbyes and I promised that everything would be alright. I decided to go back to the estate.
When I got there I floated through the door. "I'm so sorry everyone! I have failed you all. I deserve to be banished and hated by all of you."
"Its ok Lee. This is a trail and error process. If you messed up we will find a way to fix it." Shikamaru tried to comfort me.
"No its not ok. I gave you my word and now I can't fulfill my promises."
"Did you find out anything?" Naruto asked.
"Actually I found out that Sasuke doesn't just suspect us anymore, he knows that we are planning something. In fact Sakura-chan just left with him. She'll probably tell him everything she knows."
"Well looks like we need to send in more people. How about you, Tenten." Shikamaru suggested.
