Hi guys. Sorry to say that none of you got the right answer for the previous quote although you all were very close. The answer was 'Sakura Haruno'. She said it when Sai showed her his famous fake smile and insulted Sasuke. So better luck next time to all those who replied Sai. This chapter's quote is special; it's someone from the movies:
"Naruto, I will have an heir, will you help me with it?"
As usual BOLD means Ophania and BOLD ITALICS means Madara.
Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN NARUTOE OR ANY OF ITS CHARACTERS, I ONLY OWN MY OCs
A council of war was held in Konohagakure to discuss a surprise attack on Sasuke Uchiha.
All the Kages were seated in the secret meeting room underground, it was a very dark room lit only by the large candles in holders all around the room.
No body except the Kages was allowed in here. Their guards however were posted at every entrance with reinforcements, it was considered to be impenetrable, only the Hokage and the council elders had knowledge of this room.
Tsunade had suggested using it so that Sasuke would not be able to land another surprise attack like last time.
"Meetings, meetings, meetings, that's all we're doing. It's time we take some action, serious action" said A slamming his fist down hard on the table.
" I agree, all we've been doing so far is defending and resisting, meanwhile he's sent assassins after us, invaded Konoha, kidnapped Kimiko, tortured her and what not" said Mei.
"We have captured the two that Kimiko had defeated with Naruto's help when Konoha was invaded, their trial will begin in an hours time, we should be present there" said Tsunade.
"How does it feel for your own sister to be on trial Tsukikage-Sama?"Asked Onoki.
"Whether she is my sister or not is immaterial, she is an S-rank criminal and I shall expect her to be treated the same way they all are" replied Kimiko.
"Talk about cold, nice at putting up an act aren't are you?"
"What on earth are you talking about?"
"Don't play dumb with me, I can feel your panic and tension, not so immaterial is it?"
"Just keep shut will you?"
"Anyways, surely they will be interrogated Hokage-Sama?"Asked A.
"Indeed they will, I have already got our best interrogator on the job, you can be sure that they'll be talking in the hour that remains" said Tsunade.
"What about the surprise attack we planned?" asked Gaara.
"Yes, when it comes to that we have to be extremely cautious" said A.
"How do we find out where they are, knowing that Tsukikage-Sama has escaped they most likely will flee Earth Country" said Onoki.
"The neighboring land then will be Takigakure (Village Hidden in Waterfalls), Kusagakure (Village Hidden in Grass) and Amegakure" said Kimiko.
"Isn't the main akatsuki base at Amegakure?"Asked Onoki.
"It was but I will remind you that it is now a free country directly under my control" said Mei.
"And with an extremely trustable leader" said Kimiko.
"Very well if you two are so sure then we will rule out Amegakure, but that will leave Kusagakure and Takigakure" said A.
"I for one cannot see how the Uchiha clan could connect with any of those villages" said Tsunade.
"And I am pretty sure that there are no Akatsuki Bases in those villages which still exist" said Kimiko.
"Why don't we interrogate the two captives first then see if they can shed any light upon this matter," Gaara.
"That would be best in this situation, we might get some important leads" said Mei.
"Very well then, for now the meeting is adjourned, we will now hold the trial if you don't mind Hokage-Sama" said A.
They got up and soon were out in the sunshine.
They all went to the Anbu Headquarters. The place where the Third Stage of the Chuunin Exam was held was going to be the Trial Hall.
They seated themselves around the stadium alongside their particular daimyo's and elders. All the elite Jounin from their village were their as well, no chances were taken.
Sensou and Miko were marched in by Genma and Raido.
Immediately chakra repressors were placed around their hands, around their waists and legs. Three special Jounin surrounded them with a barrier Jutsu that would paralyze the first person to touch it.
Everyone seemed to be looking at Kimiko to see her reaction but if they expected to see any dramatics they were sorely disappointed.
She remained as calm and uncaring as ever talking lightly with Deidara and Ichijo beside her and ignoring the glares of hatred from Miko.
Tsunade cleared her throat.
"Miko Tsukiga, you are hereby charged with the crime of assisting Uchiha Sasuke in his ambition to assassinate the Six Kages, you are charged with the attempt to murder the Tsukikage, you are charged with the attempt to assist in the Invasion of Konoha, do you deny these charges?"
Miko ignored her completely but when her chakra repressor passed a large current of shock through her she gave Kimiko a look of hatred and spoke, "No I don't deny those charges you spat at me"
" Be civil young lady, you have no idea what a dire situation you are in, you are completely at our mercy, your precious Sasuke Uchiha will not come to save you now" said Onoki.
"Geezers like you should pass on already and leave the world at peace" said Miko in a poisonous tone.
"Of all of impudence and check, do you know who I am? I am the greatest Tsuchikage who ever lived, I am Onoki of the Double Scales" cried the Tsuchikage.
"Too bad your life's scale indicates going to hell very soon" retorted Miko.
"Why you…" began Onoki when A stopped him.
"That will do Tsuchikage-Sama," he then proceeded to charge Sensou who agreed to the charges.
" We are now placing our terms in front of you, you will help us defeat Uchiha Sasuke by providing us with whatever information you know of, in return your lives will be spared" said A.
"Will you co-operate with the Six Kages? Or would you prefer us to force it out of you?" asked Mei.
Sensou began shaking, "I'll co-operate" he said.
"The hell I will, I'm not some low down traitor" cried Miko struggling against the chains.
"That's enough from you little pest" cried Onoki throwing a kunai towards Miko.
Just as it would hit Miko's shoulder a portal opened and swallowed it up.
Onoki turned his rage on Kimiko.
"What are you doing Tsukikage-Sama? Does your sisterly love need to kick in at such an inappropriate time?" he yelled.
"There is no question of sisterly love, but I will remind you this is a trial, not an interrogation session where pain or weapons maybe inflicted upon the captive at any point, unless they attempt to escape" said Kimiko coldly.
"I think it would be best for all of us if you could control your temper slightly better Tsuchikage" said Gaara.
" I'll have none of that from you, why the two of you are hardly even a quarter of my age and have zero experience compared to what I have" cried Onoki.
"Is it really necessary to fight amongst ourselves in a trial, we have two people waiting for us" said Kimiko eyeing her sister coldly.
Onoki sobered down and sat down in his seat.
"Now I repeat, will you co-operate with us Tsukiga-San, or do we have to use force" asked Mei.
"I'll never co-operate with you" said Miko looking away.
Mei sighed and looked at Kimiko apologetically
"Very well, return to your cell now, the other one is to go with the head of interrogation for some answers" said A.
Miko and Sensou were marched away in different directions.
As Miko sat in her cell with her head between her knees she heard footsteps on the stone passage outside.
"Who's there?" she asked as three Konoha guards stood outside her cell grinning.
They pretended to take no notice of her and began chatting amongst themselves.
"Funny how some bitches don't know when to give up don't they Komoru?"Asked the first guard.
"True, bitches like them deserved to be punished right?" replied Komoru.
"Yeah, bad girls must be punished after all" said the third guard giving Miko a sidelong glance.
"If ya ask me the elder one is a bitch as well, but a powerful bitch" said the first one.
"True, did you see the look she gave Tsuchikage-Sama just because he threw a kunai, really scary eh Ryujin?" said the Komoru.
"Totally murder, no doubt about, once an Akatsuki's filthy piece of trash, always an Akatsuki's filthy piece of trash" said Ryujin and all three of them began laughing.
"Grr, shut up you bulldogs, you're in no position to talk about her like that" cried a furious Miko from inside the cave.
The guards stopped talking and faced her smirking.
"What's the matter pumpkin? Can't stand elder sissy being insulted by big bad wolves?" he asked in a mocking tone.
"Or is your diaper troubling you, have you peed in your panties yet?" crooned Komuru.
Miko gave a furious scream and reached through the bars of the cell and gave a stinging slap straight in his face.
Komoru fell back in shock.
"Why you little bitch, we'll teach you how to behave" said Ryujin as they unlocked the door and went in.
The three of them pushed back Miko and Ryujin and Komuru held her down while the third one bound her hands and legs.
"Now let's have some fun" said Komoru aiming a kick at Miko.
She gave a cry of pain but didn't scream.
"Not feeling pain yet sweetie?" asked Ryujin putting his boots on Miko's face and pressing hard.
The third one gave her spine another kick.
This went on for another minute when suddenly three large stone hands appeared, slammed and pinned the three of them against the cell wall.
Kimiko appeared from the ground her Tsukigan glowing with anger.
"Having fun were you?' she said as the hands began thorny and spiky.
The three men began to scream and shout in pain.
"Feel pleasure in kicking and hurting someone defenseless do you?" she asked as the hands got tighter.
Miko gave a cough and spat out some blood.
Kimiko turned to her and released the three men.
"If I ever catch you doing anything like that to anyone again, I will kill you in the most painful way possible" said Kimiko in a deadly tone.
The three men got up and ran for their lives.
Kimiko knelt down beside Miko and began healing her wounds.
"What the hell are you here for?" said Miko angrily.
"My being here is inconsequential but you have to agree, it did you more good than bad right? And therefore you have no reason to be angry" said Kimiko.
Miko seemed a little taken aback by this reply but then quickly regained composure.
"No reason to be angry? Sure I do, I've more than a hundred reasons to be angry with you" she retorted.
"Really? Care to enlighten me?" asked Kimiko untying her sister.
"Well for starters all members of the side branches have always hated the main branch, secondly you oppose my master, thirdly you hate me, fourthly you side with those phony kages and their bribed ways, fifthly..."
"Ok, ok that's it, enough" said Kimiko, "Lets discuss these four reasons individually, firstly the branch members have a grudge against the main clan, well Miko-Chan? Which clan? There is nothing left of the Tsukiga's except you and me, don't you think its best to put the past behind us?" asked Kimiko.
"Who said you could call me Miko-Chan?" cried Miko, her voice wavering.
Kimiko ignored her and went on, "Secondly you claim that I oppose your master, well Miko-Chan don't you think anybody would oppose someone who was trying to take your life?" asked Kimiko.
"Take your life? What are you talking about? He just needs your chakra" said Miko genuinely surprised.
"Just as I thought, Uchiha has told you nothing, he needs my Tsukigan Miko, he needs the entire reason why I am alive, and the only way he can obtain it is by killing me," said Kimiko.
Miko looked shocked, "No, you're lying; Sasuke-Sama said that he only needed a large potion of your chakra so he would require you"
"Sasuke was lying to you, believe me Miko, he needs the Tsukigan, and as a wielder of the Tsukigan yourself I ask you, would you be prepared to give it up?" asked Kimiko.
"Why should I believe you?" cried Miko pushing Kimiko away.
Kimiko sighed and took out some papers from her pouch.
"Here, take a look at this" said Kimiko handing the papers over to Miko.
Miko took the papers and began reading them, her eyes grew wider every minute and finally her shoulders sank down in a defeated slump.
" A-a-all this t-time I've been helping him catch you because he said that we would create a new world where everyone could live happily, and he said that in that world I could live with you and prove myself to you" stammered Miko.
"I'm afraid the new world is something fir only for the likes of Madara and Sasuke, their warped ideas will be practiced in this new world, and the world will become some sort of twisted haven" said Kimiko.
"No, it can't be" said Miko dropping the papers like they were on fire.
"I'm afraid it's true Miko, these papers were taken from Sasuke's private room" said Kimiko.
"He deceived me, I'm telling the truth, I tell you he deceived me, I had no idea, I didn't know" said Miko crawling into the corner and pulling her knees to her chin.
Kimiko went over to her and gave her a hug.
"Don't worry, I believe you, and after you co-operate with the Kage's everyone else will as well, trust me, leave everything to me Miko-Chan" said Kimiko.
"You're not doing this to make me co-operate are you?" asked Miko.
Kimiko shook her head and for a moment the two sisters's merely stared at each other.
" Now you see why an alliance with the Kages is necessary, and as for hating you, that's absurd, do you know how happy I was knowing that I had a surviving relative, yet how sad I was that I might have to kill or harm you" said Kimiko.
Miko moved closer to Kimiko, "I-I didn't know, I'm s-sorry" she stuttered.
"I know you didn't know Miko-Chan, will you co-operate with us? Will you? Then when all this is over we can go back to Tsukigakure with me, you can meet Jyou-san, who knew our great-grandmother, you can see our palace, yes, our palace" said Kimiko grasping her sisters hand.
Miko sniffed, "I will, I'll do whatever you say, I'll co-operate"
Kimiko gave her a last hug, "I have to go now, but in a few moments I'll come back and take you to the room where we'll ask you some questions ok?"She asked.
Miko nodded and as Kimiko turned to go she grabbed her hand.
"Arigatou... Onee-San (Thank you, elder sister)" she said in a low voice.
Tears threatened to burst from Kimiko's eyes as she gave Miko's hand a last squeeze and left the cell.
Aww, Kimiko's finally patched stuffed up with her sis. To know what happens next stay tuned to the nineteenth chapter of 'The Moonlit Third Eye'. Best of luck with the quote and see you next time. Bye~nee.
