Beasts Within

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or Prince of Tennis. I do not own anything besides the original characters that are included in the fanfic.

All the Jinchuuriki are around 12-15 years old to stay within the middle school category along with the rest of the PoT cast. I know that the ages are wrong; I'm just making them fit into the storyline. All of the canon characters will most likely be OOC considering I can't stay to a certain personality of a canon character no matter what I do. The Jinchuuriki have total control of their Bijuu but can still talk to them whenever. When they release the chakra of their Bijuu they become stronger of course and their voices are a mixture of their voice and the bijuu they contain, therefore 'Demon Enhanced Speaking' when they do activate their powers.

"Chat" Normal talking

'Chat' Thinking

'Chat' Telepathy between Jinchuuriki

"Chat" Demon enhanced speaking

Tail 27: Are Bonds That Important?

"Let's go Yuki!" a blue-haired woman asked while running towards another area of the forest. Looking over to the side, she saw her little white-coated fox friend giving her a slight nod before a light shined over the fox.

Continuing to run, the blue-haired woman noticed the fox becoming larger and more human-like. The fox's white fur turned into a white outfit with a tube top, a skirt, and a pair of slippers as well as a small jacket that made it below her chest. The jacket sleeves made it all the way to her wrists. The fox's eyes remained golden while her hair was also white. "Ready to go Estrella?" the fox turned human asked while catching up to the woman.

Glancing at each other, they both smirked before continuing to run towards the forest area they needed to be in. Little did they notice a group of people following them, shocked at the fox-turned-human's transformation.

Reaching their destination, the two women glanced around the area without moving their heads. They didn't want to try anything too bad. Turning their head toward the other, they both nodded before taking a deep breath. "Come out here you scumbags!" the two yelled out at the top of their lungs.

The group of people that tailed them had to cover their ears since they were hiding in the bushes near the two.

The group of tennis players could hear rustling in the bushes around them and glanced towards the areas.

Ten blurs sprang from the bushes and surrounded the two women in the clearing. "Well, well, well, if it isn't the little brat?" one of the blurs said.

"Itachi-teme!" Estrella yelled at the man who had spoken. She was furious at the man and wanted to kill him on the spot.

"Calm down," her partner said with a blank stare at the Akatsuki member.

Growling, Estrella took another deep breath before saying, "Right Rose."

The Akatsuki all smirked at the two women before bringing out their weapons. Before they charged however, Kisame launched something at the two.

Raising their hands for protection, Estrella and Rose never noticed how the object seemed to wrap around their hands until they were pulled toward each other. After colliding and falling onto the ground, they stood back up and took a look at their hands. "What the hell!" they both yelled when they took a look. Their hands were caught together in some sort of sticky substance that was able to stretch.

"What the hell is that?" Killer Bee commented while raising an eyebrow at the substance.

The Akatsuki started to laugh which made the two women turn to look at them. When the group saw the stares from the two, Pein answered their unspoken question by saying, "It's a very stretchy type of web that will only disappear within a few hours. You're stuck like that until then."

"You!" Estrella and Rose yelled in unison. They didn't care less about remaining calm; this was too crazy even for them.

Smirking, Itachi stepped in while saying, "You won't be able to use any jutsu, and how could you fight with just one arm?"

"You have to be kidding?" Rose yelled pulling her arm away from Estrella as far as she could before she was lifted off her feet and thrown back at Estrella who caught her.

The Akatsuki smirked before Itachi, Kisame, Pein, Deidara, and Hidan stepped up. "We won't need ten people to kill you…Jinchuuriki…"

The ones hiding in the bushes couldn't help but be surprised. The Jinchuuriki especially since they never knew about the girl…

"In your dreams!" Rose yelled before glancing towards Estrella. "You ready?" she whispered under her breath so that Estrella would be the only one to hear. Getting a nod in reply, she smirked before staring at the Akatsuki with narrowed eyes and a mischievous glint in her eyes. "Get 'em!" she yelled charging at the Akatsuki with Estrella by her side.

"They're crazy!" Sasori yelled before jumping away from the battlefield along with Konan, Kakuzu, Tobi and Zetsu. They all jumped onto the tops of the trees as they watched the fight.

The group hiding in the bushes watched the fight as well wondering what was going on and how Rose was a Jinchuuriki.

Rose ran one way while Estrella ran the other.

"That won't work…" Deidara taunted with a smirk.

That smirk was lifted off his face when Estrella suddenly jumped back from her position as Rose swung her arm around. Rose used Estrella's momentum in order to swing Estrella at one of the fighting Akatsuki members. Estrella kicked Deidara in the face before jumping off of him and lifting Rose into the air. Rose caught an overhead branch and swung on it until she was able to swing both her and Estrella onto the branch.

Smirking, Rose jumped off the branch away from the Akatsuki before gently landing on the ground.

Estrella was holding her position on the branch as best as she could considering the fact that the web was starting to stretch to its limit before it would bounce back.

Rose jumped up and flew over the branch dragging Estrella with her as they headed for Itachi.

The man released his Sharingan and used Tsukiyomi on the two while they flew at him.

Closing their eyes, Estrella and Rose used their senses as best as they could to fend off against the attacks that the Akatsuki threw at them including dodging by using the web as support for some attacks.

"Seems that you are a bit weak aren't you?" Itachi said with a smirk on his face as he evaded another one of the duo's attacks. The battle had been going on for about an hour, and the two sides were still fighting strong.

"What's it to you?" Rose asked lashing out a leg at the person next to her which happened to be Deidara.

"Maa," the blonde said before catching the leg and swung her around. "We were just wondering who you gave Jinchuuriki blood to…"

"After all," Konan whispered under her breath, "As soon as you die, the person you used the blood on might die if their condition was severe enough before it…"

"What would you do if I told you?" Rose asked with a sneer as she lashed out again at Pein. She opened her eyes to glance near Itachi to see that his eyes were bleeding once again. Even though the two were enemies, she couldn't help but feel sorry that the boy was speeding up the curse's effect of turning him blind.

Looking towards each other, the five non-fighting Akatsuki agreed on one thing, "As long as it was not another Jinchuuriki, we won't do anything to the brat…"

Estrella and Rose both opened their eyes once they felt that Itachi stopped using Tsukiyomi. Rose's eyes drooped, and she gave a small smile as she looked at the ground. "Thank goodness," she whispered. Looking up at the group, Rose asked, "So you promise not to hurt the human?"

"As we have said," Pein started while staring at the girl, "We will not harm them as long as they are not Jinchuuriki."

Rose looked towards the side of the battle field and silently muttered, "At least Yukimura-senpai will be safe then," before she closed her eyes.

The group hiding in the bushes could hear her as they were hiding in a bush that was close to her. They couldn't help but wonder how the girl knew Yukimura and even got close enough to give him any of her blood. Something was poking at their minds, and the group slowly let the object inside of their thoughts…

"Are bonds that important to you?" Konan asked with a thoughtful look as she stared at the Jinchuuriki of all Bijuu.

Rose looked up at the blue-haired woman and gave her a small smile. "I guess you could say so…couldn't you?" she asked while tilting her head to the side. "Now then will you please leave?"

"Why should we?" Sasori asked with anger in his voice as he stepped out towards Rose.

"I know you are criminals," Rose said with a small smile at the red-haired Sand Village traitor. "But even you guys have some state of honor, do you not?" she asked while looking at each of them.

The Akatsuki growled before saying, "Fine…one month. Just one month until we can get you in a proper fight with no tricks girl." They left with sneers on their faces as they looked at the two women.

"I cannot believe that they actually left," Estrella said with a sigh of relief. "You were really taking a chance there weren't you?"

Rose flopped onto the ground before sighing as well. "I'm glad they left though…I didn't know how much more I could take," Rose said with a groan as she gripped her stomach.

"Are you alright?" Estrella asked scooting over closer to the girl.

Rose opened one of her eyes to glare at the older woman and sneered, "If you got kicked in the stomach, cut along your back and legs, punches at your arms, swung into a tree, and had someone land on top of you from the top of a tree, how would you feel?"

Estrella backed away quickly and said with a sheepish look, "Sorry, sorry. Didn't realize it was that bad. Let's get you up." Estrella stood up carefully, and Rose used her Jinchuuriki tail to break the web bond between their hands. Estrella tried to get Rose to stand up. It was pretty difficult considering Rose's legs kept buckling to make her fall.

"Want some help?" a voice asked from behind the two.

The two woman looked behind them only to widen their eyes before yelling, "You!"
