Chapter 7: Day of Tragedy

Amon looked closely at a large scroll in front of him. It had been in the same place for the last two hours, and yet it still looked the same as it did almost two hours before, with the exception of a few stray marks. He looked over the large scroll really quickly, thinking of what his next would be in regard to the scroll, and took a deep breath, he thought he had it all figured out. His hand quickly moved over the large scroll making marks where the thought it would be needed. The speed of the placement of the marks increased as Amon began to put down more marks on the paper, and soon afterwards, he put down the brush next to the scroll and smiled at it feeling that he had really accomplished something.

"Hey Minato how this work, I think I got the seal right this time," Amon said to the Hokage.

Minato walked over, and sighed, he had been giving Amon a lesson on seals. You see, that was the main weakness of Amon Senju, he could not make written seals if his life depended on it. Looking at his work on this seal, Minato knew that even with two hours of practice he was not getting any better at all. It was pretty much usesless to teach him seals, even for him, the best seal jutsu shinobi around.

"Amon, let me just give you some of mine, they are already set so that you can use them with Eien, if she has problems with the demon inside of her. They will work perfectly, and you won't have to worry about anything."

"Alright," Amon replied feeling quiet down about the whole situation, "Thanks for the help anyway, I guess I will have to stick to my strengths, and hope those are enough to help my new village."

"Yeah, I am sure you will lead them with great skill, you are an impressive shinobi," Minato said to Amon with a smile, "I just wish that things would of turned out different, and you would still be one of us."

Amon smiled but decided to let the comment pass by him, understanding Minato's feelings on the issue. While he found he missed the leaf, he missed Taki more oddly when he was in the leaf visiting his old home.

The rest of the morning passed quickly with Amon working on details of the alliance with Minato, and also talking about the leaf village, and its clans. Especially the large problem ones like the Hyuuga, and the Uchiha, which were nagging problems. At the end of the meeting, Minato and Amon agreed to have their chuunin exams together for at least the next 10 years in a effort to bring the two villages closer together. Amon left the office just after lunch, so that Minato could go to the hospital to check on his wife. He almost went, but in the end he decided to get something to eat first.

Amon took a seat at the new Ramen stand, which had apparently opened why he was always in Taki. Sitting down he noticed a couple of familiar figures nearby, both had come to Taki with Minato earlier to thank them for their help against the Rock. Noticing who the two were, he braced himself.

"Amon, what is up, how is Taki, did you like it there? Are the shinobi strong, are their a lot of beautiful women there, what is like being a kage?" A young Uchiha said smiling brightly.

"Obito, shut up, I am sure Takikage does not want to hear your questions," Kakashi replied quickly.

"It is ok," Takikage replied, "I do like Taki, the shinobi are getting stronger, I do like being leader, and for the last question, you will have to come and visit sometime for longer then a day to find out," Amon replied to the curious Uchiha.

Obito looked like he had another question, but was stopped when Kakashi reminded him, that they were going to spar. Amon smiled as he watched Obito and Kakashi, the shinobi of the leaf were surely something, and those two teens would be really something for years to come. Obito then returned his attention to his own food, and started to eat when he noticed another familiar face sit down next to him.

"Oh, Lord Takikage, I thought you would be meeting with the Hokage," Shizune asked sitting down, "You don't mind if I sit here do you."

"You, nope, not at all, I am surprised you found some free time. Minato is with his wife now," Amon said with a smile, "I am sure that having a family will change him, it is a interesting thing, I am sure it will effect you life some day too."

Shizune brushed a small amount at the implication of Amon's comment, "Well, I doubt it, I do think I will ever have time to have a life. Not with having to help Tsunade and all."

Amon gave Shizune a very serious look, "Shizune, you have to stop this, if you do everything for her, it not going to help you or Lady Tsunade, I know she is your teacher, but I know she can handle herself. You have to start to live you own life, and do things to improve it yourself. I am sure that Tsunade things so as well."

"But, Amon, I am not sure what I would do, I don't think I could…"

"Bull, you are a top level jounin, you are an amazing person, and can do anything you want, and you know it." Amon replied cutting off Shizune's excuse.

"Hmm… maybe, but I just don't know if I could do it or not," Shizune replied weakly.

"Well, at least promise me, that you will think about it ok?" Amon said with a smile finishing off his ramen.

"Sure no problem."

"Well, Shizune, I better get going, I have to head back to Taki. You and Tsunade are always welcome in Taki, and I will always be glad to see you." Amon said before giving the short haired jounin a small kiss and leaving with a slight smile leaving a bewildered Shizune confused.

Amon felt good about himself, feeling that he should go and look at one of his old training areas before heading to his room and getting some sleep. Amon walked up the long rout to the far out training area which he had used when he was a gennin himself. The walk was long, but it gave him time to think of everything that had happened to him. His life was far different then ever, and he was happy about, more happy then any moment since his father died during the second great shinobi war. He reached the training area as the sun was just about to start lowering in the sky moving past its high point. Amon, took out some kunai and threw them at the targets, each hitting every target perfectly. Amon still had the skills at this at least even if he couldn't do a written seal. Amon continued to throw kunai when he heard a low pitched sound from nearby.

Amon decided to see what the noise was, figuring it was some small little animal that had wondered into his area. Amon quietly moved towards the sword, but when he saw the cause, he did not see a cute little rabbit or raccoon. No it was a odd looking shinobi with a mask with one eye opening. Amon also noticed that he had a sharingan. Something was wrong with this, something very seriously was wrong.

Moving out of the clearing, Amon looked towards the sharing an user making sure he didn't look him in the eye.

"So who are you, I know every shinobi in this town, and your not someone I know," Amon said preparing himself for this foe.

"Nothing, really, I am just here to kill of Konoha, something, I would think Amon Senju would be against this. Remember the village did turn its back on you, and even tried to kill you," The Uchiha asked with a interested look, "You know you can have waterfall gain a lot with the destruction of Konoha, you could then have a chance to become the most powerful village."

"No, I can't and you know I can't, this is my grandfather's village, they are flawed, but my friends life there, and I can't help someone like you out."

"Then you will die tonight as well."

Amon pulled out his sword and leveled it at Madara,, "Then I will die for what is right."

"Water release: Water stream jutsu," Amon yelled out slamming his sword into the ground, causing the ground to split in it path, with a large stream of water flying out of the crack," now Wind Release: cold wind jutsu."

Amon pulled his sword out of the ground and as he moved his sword, created a wind that caused the water that was coming out of the ground to freeze solid.

'That's it, well the senju have become useless haven't they," Madara said laughing, "I could kill you in a instant if I wanted too."

Amon slide his own sword away, he didn't have a choice he had to use the other one, "Then eat this."

Amon pulled out the thunder god sword, which send out lightning which went right after Madara. Madara was forced to move visibly to doge the attack, and Amon could see that the edge of the attack actually managed to hit him.

"That cursed sword, you are the second grandson for sure, he would be proud. Still now you die."

As Amon prepared a defense, he wondered just what type of attacks this shinobi would use against him. It could be pretty much anything. Suddenly, Minato appeared striking Madara into a tree.

"Well seems you found him first, good one Amon," Minato said prepared for his new threat.

"Ahh, the Hokage, and Takikage, at the same time, this will be fun, but if you two are here, who will protect Konoha."

"What are you taking about Madara?" Minato asked very seriously.

"I summoned the fox, Minato, your village is dead," Madara said with a wicked laugh.

"Then we will have to deal with you quickly," Amon said charging Madara, who dodged his attacks with ease.

Minato managed to attack at the same time, to keep Madara from using any real attacks on either of them. The attacks continued at Madara as he was forced on defense. With one step though, Minato, and Amon nodded to each other. Amon used a slash with his sword and was again dodged by Madara, but this time how he dodged allowed Minato to slam Madara with a Rasengan .

"Impressive, to bad that at this rate you two will be two late to save your village," Madara said disappearing.

"Damn this, why did this have to happen," Amon said hitting the ground, Minato looking on.

"I have a plan, but we have to hurry, lets move Amon," Minato said moving quickly back towards Konoha.

The two could see the fox moving near the gates of the town.

"Amon, help where you can, I will be their in a second."

Amon nodded as he moved towards the sight. Amon could see the amount of death around. The whole field was covered in dead bodies, and dying bodies. Amon could see how tired the shinobi looked, and he knew that they had to have Minato's plan to work or they were doomed. Looking at the battlefield, he noticed Shizune healing one of the wounded shinobi. He noticed that the fox was looking towards her. He quickly increased his speed and landed in front of the group and raised his sword. Amon watched as a blast from the fox came at him. He had a plan, but he had never actually done it, it was something he hear his grandfather did once. Amon pushed most of his chakra into the sword, and he held the sword right up and as the blast his sword, Amon yelled and actually managed with his thunder god sword to deflect the fox blast back at him with his sword. Amon fell to one knew, he was done for, the fox was mad at him. He knew he was dead. Suddenly, he noticed that Minato appear, Minato was on the back of one of the Frog summons. Amon watched the next scene in amazement and horror as Minato used a seal to defeat the fox, but also giving his own life to do so. It was over, the threat to Konoha was gone.
