Also, this is your last chance to get in who you think the spy because it will now be revealed who it is next chapter!

Happy readings!

NARUTO SHIPPUDEN

As we walked over to the hotel I couldn't help but feel nervous. We were going to meet one of the masterminds in the Akatsuki, Uchiha Obito. In the anime, his character always interested me and I enjoyed it when his plot started to unravel. But this wasn't an anime anymore, it was really life and I was actually feeling scared. What if he captured Naruto? What if Sasuke was found guilty? What if Killer B was actually dead?

I stopped walking, choosing to look at the ground.

Naruto noticed that I had stopped walking and turned around. "Akemi-chan?" He says.

I look up and see that Kakashi and Itachi had stopped too and were looking at me. Sighing I said. "Listen, there's something you guys should know."

Kakashi looks cornered. "What is it?"

"We may get visited by one of the Akatsuki members." I say, still looking unsure. There was a possibility that he may not even appear, but there was a higher chance that he would. If he did appear I would rather everyone be alert of what may take place.

Naruto waves it off. "We've dealt with others before, we'll be fine."

"Who is it?" Itachi asks, he could see my concern and was worried now himself. Only Kisame and Zetsu were left, but then there was Madara and Obito who masqueraded as Toby. Each one of them was deadly and would be a hassle if they appeared.

I look at everyone before I answer. "Obito."

Kakashi seemed to tense and even Itachi now looked apprehensive. Naruto didn't look any better, in fact now he looked worried.

"Should we head back then?" Naruto asks, caution in his tone.

"But then if we run into him on the way, we may be too tired if he wants to fight." Itachi says thinking reasonably.

Kakashi was still quiet. He had known for a while that his old teammate was alive, but he didn't realise he would be meeting with him so soon.

"Just be cautious and on your toes." Itachi tells us.

I nod my head. "I'm rooming with Naruto-kun then." I look to Naruto to see if that was alright, he gave me a toothy grin and nodded his head.

"Should we all sleep in the same room?" Kakashi asks.

I shake my head. "No, if we do then Obito may find it suspicious. Stay in a close room and if you sense something wrong, come to us immediately." For all I knew, Obito may decide that he doesn't want chat and wants to take Naruto.

With that in place we head into the hotel and book two rooms right next to each other. Luckily, there weren't that many people so there were enough rooms available. Getting settled for bed and also for an attack, I and Naruto lay on the floor. Laying in the dark, both I and Naruto couldn't seem to sleep. I knew that Naruto wasn't asleep because of his breathing.

"Are you alright, Naruto-kun?" I ask him, rolling onto my back to look to him.

Naruto shakes his head. "I'm worried for Sasuke."

I felt myself sigh, "I know how you feel." I knew the Raikage would make sure that Sasuke would pay if found guilty. He loves Killer B dearly and I can understand the feeling, I would make someone pay hell if anything happened to Haku. I would rather die in his place, as I obviously did when Pain was going to attack Haku.

Then suddenly, the hairs on the back of my neck stood on ends.

"Oi, why don't we have a chat? Uzumaki Naruto, Nakahara Akemi." Said a deep voice from the window.

Naruto and I jumped up from the floor. "You!" Naruto quickly summoned a clone and quickly formed the Rasengan. Naruto launched himself at Obito causing an explosion, the roof and a bit of the wall were blown away when the Rasengan connected.

Once the dust cleared, Naruto nor I could find Obito.

"Rasengan right off the bat, eh?" Obito says from his position on the rest roof above me and Naruto. Naruto's clone disappeared since it wasn't needed anymore.

I jump in front of Naruto. "Get back Naruto-kun." I say to him while keeping an eye on Obito in case he decided to actually capture him.

Obito looks at me with his mask. "You know it won't work, right?"

I send him a glare.

Itachi appeared in front of I and Naruto, he grabbed something out of his pouch and sent it towards Obito. The wire now wrapped around Obito bound him in place tightly. "Move and you'll regret it." Itachi warns Obito, his hand holding the wires and his Sharingan activated, watching the other Uchiha's every move.

Kakashi appears behind Obito, his own Sharingan on show and his Chidori activated.

Obito sniggered and said. "As expected from Kakashi and Itachi of the Sharingan. You two are fast."

"I won't let you get your hands on Naruto that easily." Kakashi tells him.

"No attacks will work against me." Obito says, also sparing a glance at Itachi too.

Itachi tightened the wires, causing the wires to cut into the Akatsuki cloak. "Wanna bet? I won't go easy on you." Itachi says, a blank expression on his face.

"I never thought that this was going to be easy." Obito says. "I too have a plan. But for now, I'd rather have a chat."

"And what would this chat be about?" I ask, looking at him with suspicion. Obito was a manipulator, completely different from when he was on Kakashi, Rin and Minato's team. Now, he readily used the Akatsuki to get what he wanted, which was the Tailed Beasts, if he really wanted to help the members, he would have saved them but he didn't.

Obito looks down, past Itachi and looks at me and Naruto. I could faintly see the Sharingan under the mask. I would have missed it though if I hadn't have known he already had it. I would have just assumed that he had red eyes much like Kurenai did.

"What made Pain, or rather, Nagato betray me?" Obito asks. "Naruto, I've become interested in you."

"Who gives a crap?!" Naruto shouts at him.

Obito looks to me. "And Zero's hatred for you is intriguing." He looked to be considering something, something that I didn't know.

"What's your plan for Sasuke?" I demand, cutting straight to the point.

Obito hummed. "Sasuke huh?"

Itachi tightens his grip on the wires.

"Sasuke hasn't been corrupted by darkness," I tell the other Uchiha member. In the anime, Sasuke had freely joined the Akatsuki and was trying to get to Danzo at this point, but this time it's not like that.

Even with Obito's mask over his face, he seemed to be smirking. "That's what you think."

Itachi's tightened the wires on Obito, causing blood to slip out with how tight Itachi was pulling the strings. Itachi was looking at Obito with a murderous expression, almost asking for him to try anything so Itachi could fight him.

"How about we cut to the chase, Uchiha Obito." I spat out his name with as much venom I could produce.

Obito seemed to still at his real name. Itachi sent me a warning glance but I ignored him. It wasn't just Itachi sending me warning glance, but Kakashi and Naruto too.

"How interesting, you know my true identity." Obito mumbled.

Kakashi seemed to tense slightly, right in front of him was his old teammate, the teammate who gave him his Sharingan. Kakashi didn't know how to feel at this point. When he was originally told that Obito was still alive and working for the Akatsuki, he couldn't help but feel guilty. Why didn't he go back for him? Why didn't he do something? He thought he would be able to handle seeing his old teammate, but now he wasn't so sure.

"I know a lot more." I say, an almost smug look on my face that warranted more warning glares from my friends.

Obito hummed in response.

I study him. "Why are you here?" I couldn't help myself asking this.

Obito seemed to find this amusing. "I'm here to tell you about Sasuke."

"What about him?" Naruto asks, looking at the Uchiha with caution.

"That he will eventually come to me. That is the fate of hatred for the blood-stained Uchiha." Obito says, not seeming to mind that he was bleeding due to the tightness of the wire. "The curse that has, and will forever haunt us."

Itachi stilled, he knew exactly what he was talking about.

Naruto glares at him. "What curse?"

"The curse of hatred that started with the ancestor of all shinobi long ago, Rikudou Sennin." Obito says.

Kakashi sends Obito an incredulous look. "Did you say Rikudou Sennin? He's just a myth. The Rinnegan was just a mutation."

My lips curl inward. "Unfortunately, it isn't just a myth."

Itachi nods his head. "It's true"

Obito too nods his head. "That 'myth' was drawn from reality. At one time, Rikudou taught the ninja arts and tried to set the world on a path to peace, he was half-way to realising his dream when it happened. Rikudou Sennin entrusted the power and will of the ninja arts to his two children. The elder brother by nature bore the Sennin's 'eyes'. He was blessed with the Sennin's chakra and spiritual energy, he perceived power as necessary for peace. The younger brother by nature bore the Sennin's 'flesh'. He was blessed with the Sennin's life force and physical energy, he perceived love as necessary for peace. At Sennin's deathbed, he was forced to choose a successor. But that decision bred the curse of hatred that would live on forever."

Naruto looks to Obito confused. "What do you mean?"

Obito continued on with the story. "The Sennin chose not the elder brother who sought power, but the young brother who sought love as the most fit. The elder brother had believed, as the eldest son that he was the successor and was dissatisfied. Thus started the hatred conflict with his younger brother. Even as time went by, and their blood thinned, their descendants continued to fight. The elder brother's descendants were since known as 'Uchiha' and the younger brother's as 'Senju'. The fight between the First Hokage, Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara, were fated. I can tell Senju's Will of Fire swells within you. Even now I can see the First Hokage in you. Though dead, he still lives on. Senju and Uchiha, the Will and Fire and hatred, Naruto and Sasuke, you are the next two in line, chosen by fate." Obito says, looking at Naruto directly as he said this.

I clench my fists, he was wrong. Sasuke would not be consumed by hatred, they would not be next to fight. This rivalry will end with those two. Naruto didn't look any happier than I was. I never saw Naruto give people dirty looks, if he did it was only usually to Sasuke, but he gave Obito the dirtiest look he could possess.

"The Uchiha's are the clan destined for vengeance." Obito says, continuing the tale. "Sasuke carries all the hatred of the Uchiha Clan and will strike the world with that accursed hatred. Above strong weapons, above friendship and power, his hatred will exceed everything."

I take a step forward. "Sasuke will not fall into darkness, I will make sure of that."

"And so will I." Itachi says. "I didn't fall into the darkness and I will ensure my brother follows in the same path."

Obito's head turns to me, seeming to ignore Itachi's words. "How about a deal?"

I, Itachi, Kakashi and Naruto all share a look. Obito was asking for a deal? Whatever it was, I didn't like it already.

"I will leave Sasuke alone, if you join me." Obito says.

Kakashi looks to his old teammate. "Don't you want Naruto?"

If Obito could move, I think he would have shrugged. "I will have him eventually." He looks to me, "Well, what do you say?"

I smirk. "I'd say Zero was a lot smarter than I gave him credit for."

Naruto looks to me. "What do you mean Akemi-chan?"

I look to Naruto. "What I mean is that Zero hasn't told Obito or Madara everything and that's why he needs me. If Zero had told them everything, he would have been killed long ago, they wouldn't have needed him." I look back to Obito, "I'm right aren't I?"

Obito seemed to glare at me from behind his mask.

"My answer is no and I'll make sure Sasuke never ends up in your clutches again." I say strongly, feeling adrenaline rush through me as I made this vow.

Naruto steps beside me. "I second that, if I can stop you then I will!"

Obito's jaw seemed to clench. "You will regret this." His body disappeared in a swirl and into his mask until he was gone completely. With nothing to hold, the wires that Itachi had been using fell to the ground useless and Kakashi dispelled his Chidori.

I turn to Itachi, who now had charcoal eyes. "Is he right, are all Uchiha's always bathed in darkness?"

Itachi sighs deeply. "He's half right."

Naruto looks confused. "Huh?"

"Uchiha's are known for always choosing the darker choices. However, there are a few that have chosen the light." Itachi says.

Kakashi jumps down from his position on the roof, his Hitaiate now covering his Sharingan eye. "How is that possible?"

Itachi looks to me. "You know how to obtain the Mangekyou Sharingan?"

I nod my head. "Yes, you obtain it by witnessing a trauma." It was a very common misconception that you gained the Mangekyou Sharingan through killing someone close to you, though that is very traumatic experience and people often mistake the two.

Itachi nods his head. "There is however another way."

Kakashi looks at Itachi. "What?"

"That's impossible." I say, unable to believe what I was hearing. I knew nearly everything about the Sharingan, the anime focused on it very heavily. If there was another way then I would have known about it.

"I wouldn't have believed it either, but one night I was going through the Uchiha archives and found that only a handful of people in the entire history of the Uchiha Clan managed to obtain it through the light way." Itachi says.

"And who was that?" Naruto asks.

Itachi wets his lips. "Madara and Izuna younger sister, Sayuri."

My eyes widen.

Kakashi shakes his head. "I've never heard of her."

"You wouldn't have." Itachi says shaking his head. "Apparently, Madara and Izuna were very protective of her and often kept her away from everything and away from everyone."

"And she managed to find a way to get the Mangekyou Sharingan through 'light' means?" I ask him, a little unsure about this.

Itachi's already dark eyes seemed to grow even darker. "We don't usually get a choice, sometimes we experience the trauma against our will," Itachi had obtained his Mangekyou Sharingan through witnessing Shisui's suicide and Kakashi got his when Obito witness Rin's death, also activated Kakashi's since that eye belonged to Obito.

"And how would you gain the Mangekyou Sharingan the 'light' way?" I ask Itachi.

"Sayuri left behind some notes, most of them were destroyed but I was able to decipher what was left. You can gain the Mangekyou Sharingan if you readily sacrifice yourself for a loved one." Itachi says.

Kakashi got into a thinking pose. "It almost sounds too simple."

Itachi nods his head. "Apparently, you must sacrifice yourself and be ready for death, if you just jump in front of a killing blow because you know you'll get it, it won't count."

Naruto's lips curl inward, not liking the sound of the condition. "Sounds risky."

Itachi nods his head. "Very. Hundreds of Uchiha's have made that mistake and then Uchiha's witnessing this end up with the Mangekyou Sharingan through dark means. There are only a handful of Uchiha's who have succeeded."

"Anyone is particular?" Kakashi asks him.

Itachi smirks slightly. "Our mother."

My eyes widen, Mikoto Uchiha actually had the Sharingan and she had taken it a step further. Not much was known about her, heck no one ever knew if she had the Sharingan, but Itachi had just conformed it. All I knew about her that she was Jonin before she stopped and became a housewife to look after Itachi and Sasuke.

"Has Sasuke done it then?" I ask him.

Itachi smirks slightly. "Aah."

I felt kind of annoyed that no one told me but I accepted it. If Sasuke now had the Mangekyou Sharingan then he can also use Susano'o, just like Itachi can. You can only use Susano'o if you have two Mangekyou Sharingan eyes. Obito didn't have his two eyes and couldn't use it.

"When did he do that?" Naruto asks with furrowed brows, he had never seen Sasuke use it nor has he mentioned it.

"It was during the three years. We ran into some rogue ninja and they wanted our Sharingan." Itachi says.

Kakashi looks around the rubble. "I think it's best to head back to Konoha. If Tsunade found out we followed we would be in so much trouble."

With that agreed, we packed our stuff and headed back to Konoha. I look back as we ran to the tower.

'Please be okay, Sasuke.' I think to myself before turning back around.

NARUTO SHIPPUDEN

It was a dark room that looked like a prison cell. Sasuke had been waiting here for little over an hour and was starting to get slightly impatient, though he hid it well. He had many samurai guarding him and was in cuffs, chakra draining cuffs to be exact. He sneered down at them, he was getting treated like a criminal. Sasuke's head shot up when he heard the door rattle and another samurai enter the room, he walked over to the other samurai and they began to whisper to each other. Eventually they stopped and looked at him, one walked forward and opened the door.

"Come with us. Your trial is about to begin." The samurai said in a low and gruff voice.

Wordlessly, Sasuke stood up from his sitting position and walked over to the open door. The samurai surrounded him and they escorted him to the main room where the Kage Summit was being held. Walking into the room, Sasuke saw all the Kages. Tsunade sent him a smile and Gaara nodded at him discreetly, while the others looked at him with neutral expressions, except the Raikage who was glaring at him.

Sasuke was made to stand by the side with two samurai's at either side of him.

"Uchiha Sasuke." Mifune spoke, gaining the younger Uchiha's attention. "You are here because you are being charged with capturing the Eight Tails, Killer B, how do you plea?"

"Not guilty." Sasuke says, his voice clear so everyone can here.

Ay slammed his fist onto the already broken desk. "This is bullshit!"

Mifune sends the Raikage a scolding look before turning to Tsunade. "As his Hokage, do you agree with his plea?"

Tsunade nods her head. "I do."

Ay seemed to growl at this.

Sasuke looked around the room. He knew that he already had at least two votes to back him up from Tsunade and possibly Gaara. Sasuke wasn't stupid when he knew that the Raikage wanted his blood so there was no point trying to convince him. However, that left the last two Kages and hopefully he would be able to convince one, one more was all he needed.

Mifune addresses Tsunade. "Could you please give us an account of what took place?"

Tsunade nods. "Sasuke was on a simple mission with his team. On the way there, they were ambushed by two Akatsuki members and four other people. The Akatsuki at the scene were Konan and Zero. While the team fought them off, Sasuke got separated from the other two and was ambushed. He was the put under control by Zero and was made to join the Akatsuki. There, Sasuke would be forced to do what Zero ordered him to, like capture the Eight Tails." Tsunade sent a pointed look to the Raikage.

Mifune looks to Sasuke. "Is everything she said true?"

Sasuke nods his head. "Yes."

Ay jumps up. "She's just saying this to get him off the hook!"

Tsunade sent Ay a scathing look. "I would also like to point out that the day I was leaving for the Kage Summit, two of his ninjas came into the village and demanded information about Sasuke, wanting to know everything about him so they could kill him. It specifically said that he was not to be touched."

Mifune sends a look to Ay, "Is this true?"

Ay sits back down and crosses his arms. "You can't prove anything."

Tsunade glares at him. "Don't think I don't know what goes on in my own Village."

"Is it true you had absolutely no control when Zero put you under his control?" Mei asks Sasuke.

Sasuke nods his head. "It is."

"How was control broken?" Ōnoki asks.

"By watching a close friend of mine die." Sasuke says, looking to the ground. If Sasuke hadn't already had the Mangekyou Sharingan he would have developed it them, that he was sure about.

Gaara looks to the Raikage. "I don't see how he is guilty as he did this against his will."

Ay growls. "Too many criminals have come from Konoha: Orochimaru, Itachi and now him!" He points an accusing finger to Sasuke.

"All besides Orochimaru have come back to Konoha and are very much trusted." Tsunade argues back.

Mei looks over. "I couldn't help but notice that a rogue ninja from my country is among you." Referring to Haku, said person tensed under Mei's stare from between the banners. He really hoped that he wasn't going to be brought into this argument.

Tsunade nods her head. "Haku came to us nearly four years ago and has proven himself to be very loyal."

"You're accepting too many strays into your village!" Ay shouts.

Tsunade sends him a scathing look. "None of the people in my village are 'strays' as you call them. If someone comes to Konoha wanting redemption then we will give them it."

Mifune clears his throat, getting everyone's attention. "I believe that this trial is about Sasuke, not another excuse to squabble."

Tsunade nods her head. "You're right, I apologise."

Mifune turns to Sasuke. "Is there anything you would like to add?" He asks.

Sasuke nods. "There is." He looks to the Raikage. "I am extremely sorry for what happened. I had no control of what happened and I deeply regret being caught in the situation and I regret any grief that I have caused."

The room was silent for a moment. Tsunade was looking at Sasuke proudly and Gaara looked slightly happy.

Mifune breaks the silence. "Those who deem him innocent, please raise your hand."

Tsunade and Gaara raised their hands.

But no one else did.

Sasuke's heart sank, he wasn't able to convince them.

Mifune looks to Mei. "And your reasons are?"

"Sasuke is from the Uchiha Clan and therefore very capable. He is obviously capable if he was able to take down Killer B. The fact he was able to be put under control seems like a weak excuse." Mei says with a straight face.

"I agree." Ōnoki says.

Just as Mifune was about to open his mouth, something cut him off.

A figure appeared in the middle of the horse shoe table. "Hello!" Screamed a ridiculous voice. The figure couldn't be described as human but it had human-like facial features with green short hair and one proper eye, as well as unusually rounded teeth. The rest of his face however was deformed and didn't look like it was there. The figure didn't wear clothes and seemed to have a Venus flytrap-like protrusions which was not fully formed, being white in colour as well as sticking out all along the right side of his body. This was White Zetsu, he seemed to be moulded to the ground too.

The Kage's escorts jumped out from behind the banner to protect their Kages.

"We've come to get Sasuke!" White Zetsu sang.

Ōnoki sends an accusing look to Sasuke. "So you are part of the Akatsuki!"

Sasuke shakes his head. "I'm not." He had felt just as surprised as everyone else when White Zetsu appeared from the floor.

"He left us and now we've come to get him!" White Zetsu sang looking pretty happy with himself.

"Okisuke, Urakaku, send out an order to search for anyone who doesn't belong here immediately! Also, set the Battle Condition to Level two." Mifune orders the two samurai standing next to him. They nod their heads and communicate with the other samurai using a radio.

"Yes sir." They said together.

Ay jumps up from his seat and grabs White Zetsu by the throat. "Tell us where the others are?!" Ay demands.

White Zetsu just laughs like it was a game.

Annoyed, Ay snapped its neck. White Zetsu fell to the ground limp.

Mei sends him a scolding look. "We could have captured him and got information about the Akatsuki from him."

Tsunade and Sasuke share a look, they decided to be kept quiet. If they mentioned what they knew about this member they could be put under scrutiny. Zetsu was a very mysterious member of the Akatsuki. If they tried to use Itachi as an excuse of why he was here then Tsunade hardly doubted they would get away with it this time. Tsunade and Sasuke now understood why Akemi got so stressed at times, it was hard keeping in all this information and then trying to find an excuse for it.

Gaara looks to Mei and shakes his head. "There is no one in the Akatsuki that would talk. They're a pretty hard core bunch."

C, who had been concentrating locating the intruders looks up. "Raikage-sama."

Ay nods his head. "Let's go!" He stands up and goes over to the wall, he the punches through the wall making a massive hole. With an entrance secured, he runs out of it.

Darui turns to the rest of them. "Sorry about the wall and the table."

C sends him a scolding look. "This isn't the time for that."

Darui looks at them with a sheepish expression before turning around and running out of the room along with C to catch up with their Raikage.

Ōnoki immediately look to Sasuke. "What are they planning?" He demands.

Sasuke shakes his head. "I don't know." He was starting to feel pissed off that no one was believing him, but one glare from Tsunade made him calm down. If he lost his cool and got angry, that would look bad and go against him.

Mei interjects. "Surely you must know something?"

"I was told to go on missions and that was it." Sasuke says looking at Mei directly in the eyes.

Ōnoki sent him a scrutinising look, not believing what was being said.

One of Mifune's escorts leans down and whispers in his eye. Once done, Mifune lifts his head and looks to Sasuke. "There are three people, one white haired, another red and another orange. One is carrying a big sword and the other has transformed into a demon, do you recognise these people?" Mifune asks.

Sasuke nods his head. "Yes, they were my 'team' when I was forced into the Akatsuki."

Mifune stands up and walks over to White Zetsu, he takes his sword and stabs him through the head, just to make sure he was dead.

There were loud crashes, explosions and a lot of screaming but then it went quiet all of a sudden. They all knew that the battle was over, especially when the Raikage, Darui and C walked back into the room, except there was another person with them. Karin was being dragged into the room by both C and Darui, making sure she didn't escape.

"What happened?" Tsunade demands standing up.

"I knocked the two punks out that's what!" Ay exclaims and then looks to Karin, "She willingly gave herself up."

"Please!" Karin says looking at everyone frantically, "We didn't want to come here!"

Ay glares at her. "Shut up!"

Tsunade sends Ay a scolding look. "Just hang on a minute. What do you mean by that?" Tsunade asks Karin, looking directly at her.

Karin raises her head, tears in the corner of her eyes. "We didn't want to come here, but he made us! He said if we didn't get Sasuke then he would kill us!"

Ōnoki didn't look like he was believing this. "She's lying."

Tsunade ignores them all. "Who's he?" Tsunade asks. She could see how terrified the girl was, Karin was shaking like a leaf, and she obvious wouldn't lie in this situation.

"I believe she would be referring to me." Said a deep voice.

Everyone in the room stills and then they all turn their heads. A few levels above them stood Toby, or Uchiha Obito to some. In that room though, only Sasuke and Tsunade knew the truth about who he really was. What disturbed everyone though was the fact that no one noticed him slip into the room or felt his chakra signature. Everyone who wasn't on their feet was now when they saw the Akatsuki cloak, even the samurai's guarding Sasuke got their two swords out.

Suddenly, the Raikage flew at him at full speed, but he just fazed right through him and destroyed the wall behind him. Ay removes his fist lodge into the wall and turns around to glare at the Akatsuki member.

"Leave, now." Ay growls at him threateningly.

Obito looks to the Raikage. "Then listen to what I have to say. Depending on your answer, I might."

Ōnoki appears beside him, floating in mid-air. "Calm down a little, Raikage. Let's hear what he has to say first."

Obito jumped to a higher level, one that didn't have a destroyed wall behind him. "So ladies and gents, have you decided to listen to what I have to say?" He asks.

"Why are you here?" Mei asks him calmly.

He shrugs. "I'm here for Sasuke of course." Obito answers simply.

Gaara jumps in. "Why?"

"A Sharingan capable of awakening Susano'o is rare. I want to stock up on good eyes." Obito tells them, sparing a glance to Sasuke.

Sasuke glares at him with hatred.

"I sent Karin, Suigetsu and Jugo here to get Sasuke, but they were unsuccessful." Obito says, almost with a sigh in his tone.

Karin fell to the ground. "Please! Please don't kill m-!"

A kunai was thrown and landed in Karin's heart. It was thrown from Obito, who didn't seem to care. Karin looked down and saw the kunai imbedded in her chest, she could have easily healed it weren't it for the poison that the kunai was dipped in. Karin fell to the ground, blood pouring from her mouth and her gasping. Everyone watched at this happen in horror with wide eyes.

"Yukiko." Tsunade ordered.

"Hai." Yukiko says, jumping over to Karin to heal her.

Gaara look to Obito. "Why would you kill her?"

"She is off no use anymore." Obito answers simply.

Haku glares at him from where he was standing, right in front of Tsunade.

Obito seemed to sigh. "I was hoping to weaken the Five Kages and take them hostage. But I guess that won't be happening any time soon."

"Hostage? For what?" Mei demanded.

"So that my 'Eye of the Moon' plan could be carried out without complications." Obito explains.

Ōnoki sends him a glare. "I'm really surprised that the Uchiha Madara is still alive. Why would a man of your calibre choose such an indirect approach? With your strength you could make any plan go the way you'd want it to."

Tsunade speaks up. "Unless you're not at full strength."

Obito looks at her. "She is right. The wounds I suffered from the First Hokage, Hashirama, were too deep. Currently, I don't possess much power. My existence now is merely a shell of my former self, so to speak." He says, only half lying. He may not be Uchiha Madara but he did know him.

Tsunade, Sasuke and Haku share a look, they knew he wasn't Uchiha Madara.

"So, this is a plan for you to return to your original self?" Haku asks, playing the part that he was as clueless as everyone else.

Obito nods his head. "You could say that, but that's not all there is to it."

"What are you planning?" Mifune demands. "What in the world is the Eye of the Moon plan?"

Obito seemed to sigh under his mask. "I want to explain this thoroughly, so let me sit down for a bit." He says as he sits himself down.

Kankuro sneers impatiently. "You heard him, what kind of plan is it?!"

Obito holds his hand up in the air with his index finger pointing upwards. "Everything will become one with me. A complete being where all is unified."

Everyone's eyes widen, all besides Tsunade, Sasuke and Haku.

"What do you mean?" Ōnoki asks.

"The Uchiha have a stone tablet that has been passed down for generations. It still exists, underneath Konoha. On it, a secret that has been written by the Rikudou Sennin ages ago." Obito says. "To read it, you need a special ocular power. By using the Sharingan, Mangekyou Sharingan and the Rinnegan, in that order, you can decipher it."

Ōnoki glares. "Now your story just got more unbelievable. Like about Rikudou Sennin."

"This is the truth." Obito tells them. "He existed, and he left behind a stone tablet."

"That's it!" Ay shouts jumping down to join everyone else. "What does your plan and the Rikudou Sennin have to do with each other?!"

Obito leans back, relaxing himself. "Well, do you know why became a legend and is worshipped as a God among the shinobi? This is where you can find the connection between him and my plan."

Mei speaks up. "Uchiha Madara, you possess the Mangekyou Sharingan and there is the member of the Akatsuki with the Rinnegan. You know everything, don't you?"

Ōnoki jumps down too, joining everyone else. "Let's hear it." He says.

"A long time ago, he saved the world from a certain monster." Obito says, beginning the tale.

"Monster?" Gaara repeats.

Obito looks to the Kazekage. "Gaara, a part of this monster was once sealed within you. This being a combination of all existing Bijuu, as well as the strongest chakra. The Juubi."

All Kage's eyes widen.

"Aren't there supposed to be only nine Bijuu?!" Temari shouts out.

Obito seems to glare at her from under his mask. "I told you, it was a combination of all existing Bijuu. All Bijuu, from Ichibi to the Kyuubi are no more than beings created by dispersing the Juubi's chakra. By the hands of Rikudou Sennin himself."

"I'm not liking where this is going." Kankuro mumbles. "So that's why you're collecting the Bijuu."

Obito continues on. "The Rikudou Sennin developed a certain Ninjutsu in order to protect the world from the Juubi. The Ninjutsu is still being passed down in secret, the system of the Jinchuuriki sealing technique. The Rikudou Sennin was the Juubi's first Jinchuuriki. To immobilise the Juubi, he sealed it away within his own body. By the people who had been suffering due to the Juubi, he was considered a God. But when he died, the seal would break, and the wicked chakra of the Juubi would be released once again. Fearing this, before his death, the Rikudou Sennin used the last of his powers to disperse the Juubi's chakra into nine pieces, and spread them all over the world. He then took the chakra-less body of the Juubi, sealed it away and threw it into the sky. There, it became the moon."

"That's too tall of a tale." Darui says. "As if a human would be able to do something like that!"

Obito ignored him, as if Darui had never spoken. "When the Rikudou became the Jinchuuriki of the Juubi, he came more than just human."

Mifune speaks up. "I understand that you are collecting those nine chakras, in other words, all the Bijuu to obtain that inhuman power. But what will you do once you have that power?"

"Resurrect the Juubi then I will become the Juubi's Jinchuuriki." Obito answers. "By using the power, I will strengthen my ocular powers, and invoke a certain technique."

"Which is?" Tsunade asks.

Obito crossed his legs and leaned forward. "A great Genjutsu, using the moon to project my eyes. Eternal Tsukuyomi!" Obito tells them. "I will cast a Genjutsu on all humans in existence. I will control all human with that Genjutsu and unite the world! A world with no reserve or dispute, everything will become one with me. Everything will become one unity. That is my Eye of the Moon plan."

"Stop screwing around!" Ay yells out. "We'll never hand the world over to you!"

"An illusionary peace is just a deception." Gaara says.

"It will hold no meaning if it happens in the real world." Tsunade says.

Mei nods her head. "And what would be inside that?! There will be no dreams, only running!"

"Instead of uniting the world it seems like you want to rule the world." Ōnoki says.

Obito chuckles. "Then what have you Five Kages been able to do? You should be able to understand this the most."

The Kages all look at him with intrigue.

"There is no such thing as hope." Obito says. "Hope is the same as giving up. That's why there is no other wat than to make it a deception."

Tsunade glares at him from where she was standing.

"Hand over Sasuke, Hachibi and the Kyuubi to me and co-operate with my plan. If you don't, there will be war." Obito says.

"War, you say?" Gaara says.

Ay looks to Obito. "Hachibi? You already have him!"

"The capture of the Hachibi failed and he got away." Obito tells him. "Being a Jinchuuriki and the perfect shinobi, only your younger brother is capable of that."

Sasuke glares at the Raikage, who was starting to look nervous now. After a moment of confusion, anger took its place. "That's idiot! He used this chance to get out of the village and have some fun! I won't forgive him for this! He'll taste my Iron Claw!" Ay yells, waving his fist around.

"I will not hand over Uzumaki Naruto over to you." Tsunade yells defiantly.

Gaara nods his head. "Neither will I."

"I feel the same." Mei agrees.

Ōnoki looks to the Raikage. "What about you?"

"Of course I'll never hand over my little brother!" Ay yells out, a vein throbbing on his forehead, he was still angry with his brother.

"I might not have that much power," Obito says. "But I still have the power of the Bijuu I've gathered so far. You won't be able to win."

Tsunade glares at him. "We will not give up hope!"

"So be it." Obito says, "I hereby declare the Fourth Great Ninja War!"

Ōnoki jumps in. "Are you serious?"

Obito stares at everyone, lingering on Sasuke, Haku, Tsunade and Yukiko before standing up. "Next time, we will meet on the battlefield." With that, he disappeared.

"So, now what do we do?" Ōnoki asks.

"Isn't it obvious?" Tsunade says "We must form the Allied Shinobi Forces."

Gaara nods his head. "There is no other way for us to match the power of the seven Bijuu."

Mei speaks up. "I believe you were originally against the idea, Raikage-sama?" She says looking at the Raikage.

"Tsunade."

Tsunade turned her head and saw Yukiko. The woman shook her head, indicating that she wasn't able to save Karin. Tsunade couldn't help but feel disappointed but she knew there was nothing that could be done. Whatever Obito had covered the kunai was lethal.

Tsunade turns back around and cleared her throat, making everyone look at her. "I believe we have forgotten about Sasuke." Tsunade says, arching her eyebrows.

Ay looks at Sasuke. "It looks like my brother is safe, I withdraw the charges!" Ay announces looking around the room in case someone objected.

Tsunade looks around. "Does everyone agree with that?"

Gaara, Mei and Ōnoki nod their heads.

Sasuke sighs in relief, he was now off the hook.

Ay cuts in. "We cannot continue to let the Akatsuki do what they want. We'll form the Allied Forces and end this once and for all." Ay looks to Tsunade. "You were appointed our leader."

Tsunade bows her head slightly. "I will do the best I can."

C steps forward. "Raikage-sama, we should assemble a search for Killer B right away. If the Akatsuki is still after the Hachibi and the Kyuubi, they must still be hunting Killer B down."

Ay nods his head. "Right. Send word for the village to assemble a search party to find B."

C nods his head. "Hai."

"We should let Samui's squad know about this too. Omoi and Karui were pretty down about this." Darui suggests.

Tsunade turns to Haku and Yukiko. "Send word to hide Naruto, I will not let the Akatsuki get their hands on him."

Haku and Yukiko nod their heads. "Hai." They say in chorus.

"If you're looking for Naruto, try the Iron Village, he and a girl caught me on the way to speak with me." Ay says to Tsunade.

Tsunade pinched the bridge of her nose, of course he would follow. Haku sighs, knowing his sister well, she would have followed Naruto too. Sasuke felt slightly worried, Obito was around and so was Naruto, where they alright?

"If we have any hope of stopping Madara's Eye of the Moon plan, we cannot let him obtain the Hachibi and the Kyuubi." Mei says looking serious. "That's why I think it would be best to find them and then hide them away."

"T-that's right!" Chōjūrō, one of Mei's escorts, says. "If something like the Juubi was revived…"

Ōnoki jumps in. "Still, we do not know what kind of power Madara has obtained after amassing the seven Bijuus already. He may even have some kind of secret technique that utilises their powers."

Tsunade looks to the smaller Kage. "What are you saying?"

"Wouldn't it be favourable to our Allied Shinobi Forces if we used the Hachibi and Kyuubi in battle?" Ōnoki suggests.

Mei shakes his head. "We cannot do that."

"It would be best to protect them in this war." Haku says.

"It's no wonder why Madara has decided to ignite war with the seven Bijuu he had." Gaara says. "It's likely that both Madara and the remaining Akatsuki members, in their weakened states, cannot easily capture the Hachibi and the Kyuubi. Even if they could, he probably felt the risk was too high. That is why he may be using this as a way to lure them out. At any rate, using the Hachibi and the Kyuubi in battle is not a good strategy."

"I believe so too." Mei says.

Tsunade nods her head. "Agreed."

"I also agree with the Kazekage." Ay says in a gruff voice, "Knowing the risks it carries, we cannot simply present the Hachibi and Kyuubi right before the Akatsuki's eyes. Besides, the Hachibi, my brother is not likely to follow any kind of strategy. I don't know what he might end up doing. He may even create more chaos on the battlefield." Ay grimaced at the much thought.

Tsunade sighs, knowing what Ay was feeling at this point. "Naruto would do the same."

Haku smiles at this.

Kankuro sniggers. "You can say that again."

Temari grins. "Yeah."

Mei steps forward. "Alright. Well then Tsuchikage-sama, what do you say we strive to protect and hide the Hachibi and the Kyuubi?"

Ōnoki nods his head. "Okay."

"Information regarding your brother will be given to your villages." Tsunade says, switching to her commanding voice. "Use it to assemble search parties. If you find him contact the Raikage immediately."

Ay nods his head. "My brother will only listen to me."

Ōnoki looks around. "Are you all okay with this? We do not know what kind of power the seven Bijuu will have under Madara's orders. If our Allied Shinobi Forces is destroyed in its attempts to hide and protect the Hachibi and Kyuubi, everything will have been in vein. This is why I believe that it would be advantageous of us to use the two of them right from the offset of war." Ōnoki turns and looks at Ay and Tsunade, who didn't look convinced.

"Is that so?" Mifune says stepping in.

Everyone looks to him.

"The world's first Allied Shinobi Force is being formed right before our very eyes. Its power is also unknown. Madara himself is taking a big risk relying on the seven Bijuu. Why else would be come all the way here to try and negotiate with us? He too, must be feeling at a disadvantage. Also, we samurai shall also participate in this war. Tsuchikage-dono, have I alleviated your doubts?" Mifune says looking at him.

Ōnoki sneered slightly but nodded his head anyway.

"This Kage Summit is dismissed!" Mifune announces.

NARUTO SHIPPUDEN

I, Naruto, Kakashi and Itachi had returned to Konoha that night. None of us wanted to risk Obito coming for Naruto so we all disguised ourselves with a jutsu and travelled as quickly as we could back to the safety of Konoha. It took a few hours and it was nearly morning by the time we got back. As soon as we got back to the house, we all crashed. Itachi hadn't even went home, he just crashed in the spare room and was asleep in seconds. It was then around two o'clock in the afternoon by the time Haku and Sasuke got back to our house.

I was in the kitchen cooking a lunch, but it would all be our breakfasts when I hear the door creek open.

"We're back!" Haku announces walking into the house with Sasuke close behind.

I smile at them. "Great to see you back!"

Naruto, who had been nearly asleep on the couch jumped away. "Oh, hey!" Naruto smiles at them.

Haku looks at us closely. "You followed us didn't you?" Haku says with a blank look.

I and Naruto share panicked looks, how did they know? Then I remembered Ay telling them that Naruto was in the Land of Iron.

Dammit Raikage!

Sasuke sighs behind Haku. "Idiots…" He mumbles under his breathe.

"I think you'll find that your brother allowed us to go." I say crossing my arms over my chest.

"And who are you calling an idiot?!" Naruto yells jumping to his feet. Haku went over to Naruto to calm him down.

I look to Sasuke, "Well how did it go?" I ask him.

Sasuke rolled his eyes. "Isn't not obvious?"

I glare at him. "Don't get mouthy with me."

Sasuke smirked at me.

"Well since it went well, why don't I give you a hug?" I say, a mischievous grin making its way onto my face.

Sasuke froze as a blush appeared in his face.

I open my arms wide and walk towards the young Uchiha who looked like a deer caught in head lights and ran like the wind.

"LET ME HUG YOU!"

"No!"

Itachi came downstairs looking at the chaos that was happening before him. I had managed to get Sasuke in a hug, though he seemed to be struggling, Itachi could tell Sasuke liked the hug from the way he wasn't fully trying to get out of the hug and the slight blush that was on his face.
