Chapter 10

Kisame grinned and swung samehada at a group of leaf Nin, tearing them to shreds. Blood splattered his face as he continued his onslaught. He looked over and saw an explosion of purple chakra near the gates and large spikes of ice shoot up from the ground near where hinata had jumped from the large clay bird deidara was on. He saw people flying in shiru's direction and he saw the clear ice spikes become stained red with blood in Hinata's direction.

He looked over to zetsu and his face went from sadistic to disgust. Zetsu bit the head off of a leaf ninja. "Man that's just nasty zetsu…"he said with a look of pure distaste as zetsu licked the blood from his lips. Zetsu just grinned at the shark man. "Don't knock it." His white side said. "Until you try it. "Dark zetsu said.

Shiru was slung in their direction and she hit the ground by kisame. "yo, zetsu-san, kisame-sempai. How's it going?" she asked as she pulled herself from her crater. Kisame blinked. '' what happened?" kisame asked, confused about why shiru had literally flown over at them.

"Sasori's chakra strings were cut from me while I was playing human puppet. Well I gotta get back to sasori now. See ya!" she said then ran back to sasori. Zetsu's head tilted to the side while he devoured yet another leaf ninja.

"That's still nasty." kisame said, hearing the crunch of the bones, the swish of blood and the tearing of the muscles from Zetsu's mouth. Kisame suppressed a disgusted shiver at the sound, which caused zetsu to grin.

Kisame grinned, seeing more ninja appear. He did a few hand signs and his cheeks began to swell then he spat out large amount of water, flooding the area and drowning enemy ninja, causing zetsu to frown at him.

"What?" kisame asked him with a grin. "Humans taste awful when drowned. I refuse to eat them now." Zetsu pouted. Kisame narrowed his eyes then used his water shark jutsu. "Not a problem, my sharks will eat them then." Kisame said with a shrug.

Zetsu sunk into the ground and snapped the neck of an unsuspecting lightning ninja that had jumped at them from the rooftops.

Kisame noticed his water draining away then he looked over at shiru when she screamed sasori's name and noticed that it was trailing across the village to her. She was in mid air, the water forming a sphere around her. She mixed her poison in with the water and began sending spikes of pale bluish purple ice at the enemy ninja. It wasn't hard to see, she was only about a few hundred yards away now.

It was happening slowly but surely, they were all about to clash in the center of the village, well him zetsu deidara hinata shiru and sasori were, pein and konan were off looking for the kyuubi.

-:-:-

Konan felt her paper clones being eaten by the aburame clan's insects. She could also feel her paper wings getting devoured by the insects also.

She saw hinata up ahead so she dove towards her. "konan-sama, I will handle them, please go help leader-sama." hinata said and konan nodded. Hinata soaked her wings, drowning the insects eating away at her transportation means.

Konan uttered a silent thank you and rebuilt her wings then flew away, watching as hinata drowned the aburame clan within minutes.

Konan smirked slightly then took off towards where pein was. Konan saw shiru with sasori on her back. Konan flew beside shiru and frowned.

"What happened to him?" she asked. "Lightning ninja. They found his weakness and they used it. The haruno girl said she would heal him if I gave up. I nodded at her and she healed him, I think he is human…" shiru said looking at sasori's face.

"Get him to safety then create a distraction. Pein is going up against the hokage now. She has released all her power so I must go help. The other five paths are wreaking havoc elsewhere. Keep an eye out for the kyuubi, he should be returning anytime now. Be careful, make sure all other members are safe and we don't lose any because we will need them when the demon arrives." Konan said as she dodged random trees. Shiru nodded and jumped from tree branch to tree branch.

Shiru ducked into a hollow tree with sasori and konan took off to help pein. Shiru set sasori down and covered him with her cloak. She watched as konan left and she moved to turn to leave a large warm hand grabbed her wrist.

Shiru looked at sasori and saw it was his hand. "You aren't cold anymore." she muttered and he released her wrist only to pull her to him. "please be careful. I will return to the battle when I have regained my energy. If you need help send your summon to get me and I will be there, I promise." He said and she nodded. "I will sasori." She said and he released her. She smiled and took off from the tree.

She hoisted herself over the wall and met up with kisame and zetsu. "Help me keep an eye out for the demon brat. Konan said so." Shiru said and looked at the large shark man and the plant.

Kisame nodded with a feral sharp toothed grin. Zetsu just sighed in boredom. Shiru looked up and waved for deidara who was flying over head. He nodded then he and hinata landed beside them.

"So what now UN?" deidara asked. Shiru looked around and grinned. "While pein and his paths destroy the hokage and that side of the village I say we destroy the hyuuga estate and level the village as we were told." Shiru said with a wicked grin.

Hinata smirked darkly. "Lets go give my papa a little visit now shall we? I mean it was because if him I had to kill my dearest cousin neji." Hinata said and deidara chuckled. , then looked around. "Where is sasori-no-danna?" he asked.

Shiru rubbed her arm and looked at him. "He has to regain his energy. We had a mishap with a lightning Nin and he got hurt." Shiru said and deidara looked at her sharply. "Is danna alright?" he asked. Shiru frowned.

" Well he is sorta well… umm-" shiru started, not sure how to word it. "I'm human. That's what she is trying to say." Sasori's voice rang out smoothly. Deidara turned around and his jaw dropped, sasori was taller than him now.

"Danna… you grew about two feet. You aren't shorter than me anymore, yeah." Deidara said looking up at the taller male in shock. Sasori was now about six foot seven, not his normal five foot four. Deidara was now looking up at his danna."I think human danna is taller than tobi…" deidara murmured. Shiru blinked. " well… I knew something was different about him. Anyways we have to follow leader's orders, level this place to the ground." Shiru said and they nodded.
