I do not own anything except Samuru, Chii and the Village Hidden in Blaze

On the land between the land of Fire and Wind, there was a battle about to rage. Nako, leader of a small village on the unnamed land and father to Chii and Samuru, let their village shinobi to the desert where the battle would be. They wanted to try to prevent the battle even though they had no hope of success. The fouteen year old Samuru to his left and his thirteen year old daughter stood to the right of Nako as they saw the two nations on their way. Several shinobi came towards Nako and he walked out to meet them, his children flanking him, ready to attack if they were going to trick them.

"Nako of the southern clans, why are you here?" a shinobi of the leaf spoke.

"We came to try and stop this battle. Why are you wanting to fight anyway, can you not decided matters politically?" Nako asked.

"Our opinions do not concern you and children," a sand shinobi snapped and started to draw a kunai when Chii moved and used her sand to take the weapon. "What the...?"

"We do not want a battle on our land," Nako spoke, holding a warning in his voice.

"This is no man's land, you cannot tell us what to do. How do you have an ice user?" the second sand shinobi snapped.

"The techniques we have within our ranks do not concern you. Just let me warn you now, we many not have as many as you but we can defeat you if we need to," Nako spoke, signaling to his children to move back to the ranks.

"Let it be war then," the other leaf shinobi growled and the returned to their ranks.

"Chii, take the sand, Samuru take the leaf. Release your twin dragon blizzard jutsu," Nako spoke as he reached them.

"Snake - rat - dragon - monkey - tiger - dog. Ice Release: Twin Dragon Blizzard!" the two children spoke and activated the jutsu.

Sand started to swirl around and turned into a tornado and turned to ice. Two dragons appeared from each tordando and the children directed them into the two nations. All that were hit by the dragons got thrown around and killed as the dragons breathed ice fire. The others around the children activated their own jutsus and the battle went underway. Fire, water, lightening, earth, wind, and the ice elements tore through the ranks of the Leaf and Sand as they started running forward meeting each other. Samuru stayed near Nako and Chii ran into the sand ranks, forcing her dragons to move faster and she jumped onto the head of one of them and started inflicting more damage than before.

Chii knew that Samuru was getting weary and moved the dragon she was on to the Leaf as the other two dragons disappeared. His chakra was wavering on the edge of losing control. She heard screams as she lowered her dragon so that her was flying through the ranks and people saw her.

Something pierced through her shoulder and the two dragons disappeared and she felt all her chakra scramble up from the attack. She was thrown to the ground and several shinobi tied her down then she was lifted back into the air, each of her himbs tied by a rope and she felt the chakra of several people holding her up as several whips met her back. When she opened her eyes, she saw her friends and family looking at her in horror. Samuru's face narrowed and Chii started struggling. He was surrounded by comrades and was about to loose control.

A scream pierced the air and all the smaller fights stopped to figure out what was going on and then Samuru let out another scream and released the Shattering Ice Spears and everyone within 200 yards of him was killed instantly. Ice came around the cage Chii was in and it was pulled apart then wrapped around Chii and brought her back to the ground then the sand and leaf shinobi were retreating in their few numbers.

Samuru started shaking from the sudden loss of control as he pulled Chii onto his back so she didn't have any extra pain and then headed back towards the village was. Samuru heard Chii gasp as they got closer to the village and he looked closer and saw lumps in the streets and a few houses on fire. He dashed forward, ignoring his energy loss and entered the village.

The bodies of the women and children where torn apart and tossed through the streets. Chii whimpered and samuru felt her bury her face against his back. Samuru ran to their home and saw their mother on the wall inside, spears in her shoulders and heart while their five year old brother lay broken at her feet. Samuru hurried into a bedroom and was relieved to see that it was left untouched. He laid Chii on the bed on her stomach and started to heal her back.

"Why...?" Chii's voice broke. "How could someone do something like this...?"

"I don't know..." Samuru whispered, trying to keep in control.

"Leave it," she whispered. "After you regain some chakra then you can finish healing me."

"Alright, then just hold still so I can bandage it." He pulled the medical kit that was in the closet and bandaged her whole back then sat on the floor exhausted.

Chii woke up, feeling no pain in her back and looked around. The sun was coming up and there were soft grunts outside. She changed into a clean shirt then walked out of the house, trying to ignore the body-shaped blood pools on the wall and floor and walked outside. There was a huge bonfire in the center of the town but she didn't see any bodies littering the streets.

She saw Samuru sitting to her right with his back to a house watching the fire. She sat next to him, realizing that he had piled up all the bodies of the villagers and set the pile aflame. He looked at her and she saw a fresh cut on his left cheek that went froYethe middle of his bottom eyelid and went down and started to curve away towards his ear.

"What happened?" she asked touching the wound.

"I was pulling mom down from the wall and one of the spears gouged me," he whispered. "Don't heal it, I'll let this scar to remember her and our fallen comrades."
