Hello everyone. It's back to the Sixteenth chapter of The Moonlit Third Eye. The correct answer has come in once again from Deidarakiller, I mean come on, does no one out there want to compete? Anyways, this chapter's quote is tough, let's see if anyone can crack it.
"When a man learns to love, he must bear the risks of hatred"
Ok from now on, BOLD means that Ophania is speaking, BOLD ITALICS means Madara is speaking and only italics means the person is thinking ok?
WARNING: THIS CHAPTER MIGHT CONTAIN SOME BRUTAL SCENES AND MINOR VIOLENCE
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN NARUTO OR ANY OF ITS CHARACTERS, I ONLY OWN MY OCs
Deidara groaned and sat up wondering what happened.
Around him were strewn the unconscious bodies of the five kages, their guards, and the six Daimyo's
Then suddenly it all came back to him in a flash.
"Kimiko, oh no, damn that bastard Uchiha" thought Deidara getting up to his feet.
He went around shaking all the kages.
Soon they were sitting up groaning and rubbing their heads and wondering what happened.
The walls all around were charred and a dreadful smoky smell was coming from everywhere.
The water which had been pure and blue till then was a dull shade of grey and all the guards around the room were dead.
"What on earth happened?" asked the Earth Daimyo.
"We were attacked by Sasuke Uchiha, Tsukikage-Sama has been captured" cried Onoki.
"We have to send out a search party immediately, we can't afford to lose Kimiko" said Mei sitting up.
"I'm afraid that all connection to the outside world has been lost" declared Chichiyasu looking out of a small window.
"What the heck do you mean?" yelled Tsunade.
"The caravans that brought you here are destroyed, I can see the horses dead, and there is no way a messenger bird can get across in the gale outside" said Chichiyasu.
"Gale? But the weather was fine when we got here?" said A.
"Well it's not fine anymore, we can't do anything till the storm dies down" said Chichiyasu.
"The heck with a storm, I don't care, I'm going to look for Kimiko" said Deidara yelling.
"I agree we cannot sit around doing nothing" said Gaara.
"But how do we look in the storm?" questioned Onoki.
"We have to use a shield jutsu, the Barrier dome Jutsu may work" said Tsunade.
"It won't work" said Mei quietly looking out of the window.
"What do you mean it won't work? A powerful shield Jutsu…"
Tsunade was cut off when Mei said, "I know this water, I am the Mizukage, this is called the Acid Rain Technique, if we step out in it within thirty minutes all our chakra will be drained away, and if we get stuck without any chakra in this rain then it will be a bad situation"
Everyone stared desperately at her.
"Can't we use an umbrella?" asked Darui and got a whack on the head by the Raikage.
"This isn't the time to be joking, we're in a tight situation here" said A.
"Indeed, Sasuke has made sure that there is no loophole left for us to chase him" said Gaara.
"So what do we do now?' asked Tsunade.
"This technique feeds on chakra, so we should make sure that no one is caught out in the rain, the more chakra it feeds on, the longer it lasts, get it?" asked Mei.
"Right so first we should find out if anybody is caught out in the rain" said Onoki.
"And if we find someone then we should get them out of there" said A.
"Well what are you guys standing around for? Let's get moving" shouted Deidara.
Kimiko was imprisoned in the vault. Her hands and legs were bounds by super pressurized metal with chakra restrainers in them.
Her mouth was bounds and her Tsukigan was bound as well.
The cell was cold and damp and a foul smell hung around in the air.
"Wow, they certainly don't get an award for their hospitality skills" thought Kimiko.
"What are you doing silly girl, lying their when you can easily break out?"
"I can't, the chakra has been drained from me, probably when I was inside that tube thingy"
"Those lowlifes, wait till I get my hands on them, I'll scratch them so hard that their kidneys will show"
" I doubt you could show up now, not when I have such a low reserve of chakra, and all my soldier pills are gone as well"
"Well there must be something we can do; you don't mean to tell me that your planning to let them have their way are you?"
"My dear Ophania, I'll leave that up to you to guess, let's see how well you know me"
"Oh no my girl, don't you start getting cocky with me, I want answers now"
"Relax; look I'll tell you something, I have no intention of letting myself be captured"
"Humph, fine, but remember anytime you need advice to kick some guts out, I'm right here"
"If I ever want to do that, trust me you'll be the first to know"
"If I were you I would have got myself out of this predicament a long time ago"
"Yes, yes, but you have to realize that there were other lives at stake"
"My foot, the world would have been better without those useless Daimyo's and no doubt the Kages could have fended for themselves"
"Maybe if it was Sasuke alone but in this situation it was Sasuke and Madara together, no I don't think anyone but me would have survived in the long run if I hadn't consented to this"
"Oh yes, I forgot about Madara, he was always such a i-get-what-i-want type"
"Did you know him as well?"
"Of course, so jealous of Hashirama and Tobirama, he didn't want peace, he wanted power, but the villagers knew him, they chose peace over tyranny, they chose Hashirama over Madara, and for that he bore a huge grudge"
"Didn't his clansmen desert him as well?"
" True, they wanted a break from battle, it was war today and spying tomorrow and murder the day after, that was life for the Uchiha clan during those days, they didn't like it so they seized the chance to get rid of it"
"I guess one could say you reap what you sow, but it seems that now the descendant is getting the same treatment"
"Kimiko, whatever you do, you must not take Sasuke Uchiha lightly, once he has complete adjustment with Madara in his body they will be able to work as efficiently as you and me"
"That ought to make it, Kimiko and Ophania versus Sasuke and Madara, 300 ryo bet that the Kimiko-Ophania team wins"
"Stop joking, this is deathly serious"
"I realize that Ophania, I only wish you would stop reminding me about it every two seconds"
There was a long pause after this.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be rude to you, it's just that I'm trying my best and I wish you could see that" said Kimiko quietly.
"No, I'm sorry, I've been putting too much pressure on you, please forgive me"
"Don't be silly, let's forget all this and work as a team all right?"
"You got it"
Sasuke smirked victoriously in his room holding a glass which held some sake in his hands.
Three doctors stood before him, they all looked slightly nervous and fidgety.
"Finally my ambitions will come true, now I can kill Tsukiga" said Sasuke.
"Don't be a fool, if you killed her how would you use the Tsukigan?"
"What are you talking about? I can easily get it transplanted, those who stand before me are the best doctors in the Earth Country" said Sasuke as the doctors smiled weakly.
"You've got it all wrong, didn't you think? If I wanted Tsukiga dead then I would have killed her when she was a child, why should I wait till she's a potent threat? We need her alive"
"But why?" asked Sasuke.
"Because the Tsukigan is not like the other eye techniques, it is one of the oldest and most powerful techniques equaled only by the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan or the Rinnegan"
"So what you are saying is that all the time you were trying to persuade her to give us the use of her Tsukigan?"
"Of course you fool, and we can't do anything hasty because her Tsukigan is the only one"
"No its not, there's Miko…"
"That girl is from merely a side branch, even if she brought her Tsukigan to the Fourth Stage it would not help to break to cage"
Sasuke frowned a little and waved his hand in a dismiss signal to the doctors who rushed out thankfully.
"So we have to persuade her?" asked Sasuke.
"Yes, or blackmail her, or put her under some powerful Genjutsu to do our bidding, and if we don't take this properly she might sacrifice herself you know, if that happens its all over"
"So all this time, if she just came to know of this she could have wrecked up the entire plan in the blink of an eye, that's a terrible chance to take"
"A lot depends on chance yes, but why should she come to know of our plans, and I don't think she would destroy her Tsukigan till she absolutely needed to"
"So what do we do now?"
"She won't be persuaded, nor will she be bribed, so that leaves blackmail or genjutsu"
"I vote for genjutsu,"
"As well as me, come, let's pay her a visit"
Sasuke got up from his chair and walked out of the room after locking his door shut.
He walked down the entire length of the hallways before turning down towards the dungeons.
He arrived after nodding at the guards and walked in front of the cell absolutely bounded by Genjutsu and chakra receivers.
"Kai" he said dispelling the Genjutsu as walking in after opening the lock.
Kimiko looked up as he came in.
"Finally decided to drop by I see, Sasuke? Or is it Madara?" asked Kimiko.
"I hear that you've been made Tsukikage and accepted by the other kages, congratulations Kimiko Tsukiga"
"A feat that you never were able to achieve and probably never will either" said Kimiko.
"Enough talk, I'm here to warn you, give us the Tsukigan's vision and we shall release you unharmed, fail to do so, and I will blind you" said Sasuke in a murderously cold voice.
"Blind me? Why I thought you required the usage of the Tsukigan to complete your little plan? Aren't I right? Well I can tell you this, I have no intention to co-operating and I believe that you know that very well, so quit wasting my time and get to the point" said Kimiko.
Sasuke half reached for his sword when a voice called for him to stop.
"There's no need for violence Sasuke, lets go back for now"
Sasuke huffed and turned around. He restored the Genjutsu's on the walls and locked the door again.
After walking a few steps away Sasuke stopped.
"Right, she believes you're gone, so do it now, make her feel the pain"
Sasuke nodded a little and activated his Mangekyou sharingan.
"Demonic Illusion: Hell Viewing Jutsu"
Immediately a flop could be heard from one of the cells.
The world was becoming black for Kimiko.
"A genjutsu huh? Well that's a cheap trick"
"No worries, they don't work much for me" said Kimiko when the image of a mangled body appeared before her.
Kimiko looked at it startled and then she made out the face and saw it was her father.
"D-d-don't worry, it's just a genjutsu" shethought back away as the corpse started moving.
The corpse lifted itself off the floor and gave a very twisted grin with whatever face it had left.
The teeth were all yellow and rotting, his skin was peeling of like wallpaper and in his hand he clutched a rusted kunai.
Just then a hand grabbed Kimiko from behind.
She screamed and turned back to see the mangled corpse of her mother.
"S-stay away f-from me" she stammered trying back away.
"Kimiko, you do realize this is a genjutsu right?"
"No-no get away from me, get away from me" screamed Kimiko as the corpses cornered her into a wall.
"Snap out of it Kimiko, it's just an illusion, they're not real, it's just an illusion"
Just then a third corpse appeared on the floor, it was Deidara, all his hair strewn in a mess, a large katana emerging from the heart, all his fingers broken and his face slashed and bruised and cut brutally.
And finally behind him appeared some more corpses consisting of Mei, Tsunade, Yuji, Jyou, Ichijo, and Emiko.
They all surrounded Kimiko and then a frightening voice spoke.
"We hate you Kimiko Tsukiga, you abandoned us, you are a witch, you are the reason we're suffering so much, we will kill you Kimiko Tsukiga, we will kill you and crucify your body and then burn it with great pleasure"
"N-n-o, leave me alone, I didn't do this to you, Mom, dad, Deidara, everyone, let me go, I don't want to die" screamed Kimiko clutching her knee and grabbing her head.
"Kimiko why can't you see that it's just an illusion"
"We will kill you, we will kill you, we hate you, we hate you" chanted the voices all around Kimiko and the corpse of Deidara grabbed her neck.
"How does it feel for you to be choking nearly to death?"
"L-let me go please, please, I beg you" gasped Kimiko trying to push Deidara away.
Just then Ichijo's corpse stabbed Kimiko in the stomach, in a non-fatal area.
"How does it feel to be stabbed over and over again?"
Ichijo brought down the kunai on the same area again and again.
Mei grabbed a katana and began slashing away and Kimiko legs and thighs making a pattern of the Hades (the realm of the dead)
" No, no, no, let me go, let me go" cried Kimiko as a huge wave of chakra emerged from her.
It was a very vicious and dangerously corroding chakra.
"I didn't do anything; I didn't do anything, I didn't do anything," cried Kimiko as she sent the waves of chakra all around her.
Sasuke watched in awe and terror as a huge wave of absolutely vile chakra swept out from Kimiko towards him.
"I can't keep the genjutsu on" he said trying to ignore the vile chakra's effect.
"Why ever not? It's just a normal wave of chakra"
"No it's not, you can't sense, it's absolutely vile, even worse than the Nine-Tails chakra I felt" said Sasuke when the wave of chakra ignited into violet flames and a huge explosion shook the place.
Sasuke was thrown back so hard against the wall that it knocked him unconscious immediately
The corpses faded around Kimiko as the explosion effect died down.
"This is you chance Kimiko, get out of here, everyone's been knocked unconscious"
Kimiko fell to the floor sweating and panting.
"I can't move, too tired, "she panted.
"Can you summon the Staff of Heaven? Please, please try to summon, it dear"
Kimiko gulped and slowly got into a sitting position.
She brought her hand together and tried to summon the staff.
"Weapon Summoning…"
Her hands fell uselessly.
"Oh dear, try, Kimiko, try, remember, Deidara is waiting for you, everyone is waiting for you, the Citizens of Tsukigakure are waiting for their Kage to return to them"
With this something snapped within Kimiko.
She tried her best to pull her hands up and with the greatest effort it ever caused her, she bit her thumb and said, "Weapon Summoning: Staff of Heaven "
In a poof the large white staff appeared in her lap and reacting with Ophania's chakra it began healing Kimiko.
The healing took around thirty minutes because even with the amazing speed of the staff Kimiko had lost a lot of chakra and needed some time.
When her wounds were all gone and almost all her chakra was restored Kimiko stepped out of the cell and went upstairs.
"All right, time to revert to the old tricks again" thought Kimiko as she did a transformation jutsu and turned into Sasuke.
Then she strolled forwards and went into the infirmary.
The nurses sitting there gasped and rose up.
"I want the three of you two stop chatting leave right now" ordered Kimiko in Sasuke's cold voice.
"Hai Sasuke-Sama" bowed the nurses and went out.
Kimiko smirked and went over to the information cabinet.
There she quickly pulled out all the files and did some hand signs, "Fire Release: Flick of Cinder Jutsu"
A quick flash of light could be seen as the files set on fire.
"Hurry up; I think Sasuke's coming to"
"All right then, Teleportation Jutsu" said Kimiko disappearing from the room and appearing outside the base.
"Hmm, this feels like Earth Country, well I had better try and head for Iwagakure, where the Tsuchikage will be" she thought as she summoned a dragon and flew high into the skies.
Whew, took some time to get that one done. Anyways best of luck with the quote, please try and answer, and don't forget to review. Bye~nee.
