Chapter 30: Showdown!!!!! Part 2: Shadow Assault! Tayuya vs. Sidestep!
"So, little hot head. You going to move, or do I get first strike?" Sidestep asked, as Tayuya smirked. She brought her flute to her mouth, and began to play. As her song rang throughout the battle field, three demons appeared.
"A Summoning Jutsu?" Sidestep mused, as the giant grey demons charged at him. One swung, holding three giant Senbon in its grasp. Sidestep jumped out of the way, and back flipped to land onto a palm tree. (That flute, it's too loud. I can't concentrate on my music.) Sidestep mused, as the flute's music reverbertated all around.
(Hn. Guess I have no choice but to get rid of that annoying instrument.) Sidestep pulled out a few shuriken in the shape of disco balls, and flung them. Tayuya played a tune, and a Doki Summon popped in front of her, and blocked the attack. (Ah son of a bitch!) Sidestep screamed in his mind, as a giant Doki wielding an axe sliced the tree he was in in half.
A whistle of amazement was all Sidestep could say. He hopped back, and growled annoyed. (I won't use my Soul Weapon! I don't want them to know any more than what is necessary.) He commanded himself in his mind.
Sidestep ran along the streets thinking. He then came to a toy store, and caught a flash of dreadlocks. (Eh!? Hyosuke is in there!?) Sidestep mused on it for a few seconds, before a gang of these weird things that looked like cut up intestines with teeth charged at him. (You know. Those weird things that drain chakra.)
Sidestep tossed some kunai at them, and was miffed when they flew right through them. He jumped to avoid them, and pulled out a disco shuriken. He was about 12 blocks away from Tayuya, but he could see her. He spun, and tossed it with all his strength.
The thing flew amazingly, and Tayuya actually jumped to avoid it. (The fuck!?) The thing, though thrown 12 blocks away, damn near took her head off. The moment her tune ended, her Doki Summons stopped moving altogether, and Sidestep caught that.
(The damn things move when she plays!? Ain't that something.) Game plan! Take the flute, and you got her beat. Time to kick ass!!
"This doesn't look good." Kidomaru said. "Why is that?" Sakon asked. "He figured her out." Jirobo said, and Sakon smirked. "Then she can fight her way out! She is the smart one." Sakon said.
"But she's also the tempermental one. All it takes is one time for her to unhinge." Kimimaro said. "If something goes wrong, you are bailing her out." Sakon said. "Why me?" Kimimaro asked. "Because, if any of us try, she'll skin us alive. And besides, she'll listen to anything you say." Kidomaru said, smirking.
"I am the leader, right? It makes sense for her to follow my commands." Kimimaro said. "Even if you weren't, she would follow your words." Sakon said, and they all smirked. "What's so funny?" Kimimaro asked. "The sheer denseness you have." Kidomaru said.
Sidestep was running and dodging the attacks of the giant Doki Summons, and began to plot the downfall of everyone's favorite foul-mouthed Shadow Blade.
Sidestep ran along the streets, as he pulled out 5 kunai. He then jumped into the rooftops, and smirked. He then changed directions and charged towards Tayuya. Tayuya's eyes widened in surprised, before the Doki wielding the axe stood in front of her, and Sidestep smirked.
The giant Doki swung, and Sidestep hopped over it, tossing a kunai. Tayuya jumped out of the way of the attack, but was surprised when Sidestep appeared next to her, a kunai in hand. He swiped, and knocked Tayuya's flute away. If that wasn't enough, he tossed his 4 remaining kunai, and they got caught in the holes in the flutes. The instrument flew through the air, until it got stuck along a tree. Tayuya muttered some colorful words, before the Dokis disappeared, and Sidestep's smirk grew even wider. (Got her!)
Tayuya ran to the tree (palm, just so you know), annoyed that it was lodged in their quite hard. She managed to pull it out, and was happy that it wasn't broken. She smirked, and was about to bring it to her mouth, but the whole area then turned into what looked like a giant disco danceroom.
Tayuya turned to look around in confusion, before an area lit up, eminating an 'OH!' sound from somewhere. Sidestep was in that lit area, holding a pose, and smiling. "Now it's time for my move. Let the dance begin!!" Sidestep said, as a technotronic beat started up, and Sidestep began to dance.
"Shit! He's about to start fightning for real!" Kidomaru said. "You sure?" Jirobo asked. "This weird song. It started up the moment he was fighting to win!" Kidomaru said. "Then he get stronger when he moves to this disco music?" Sakon asked.
"Yeah." Kidomaru replied. "Back me up. If something goes wrong, save Tayuya and let me handle him." Kimimaro said, as he disappeared in a poof of leaves.
(My music. I can't hear my songs…) Tayuya muttered. "Can't play what you can't hear?" Sidestep asked, and Tayuya smirked, and began playing. He jumped when a tomahawk flew through the skies, and landed where he was standing/dancing.
"You're getting serious!" Sidestep said, as the Doki wielding the three needles charged. He danced out of the way, and began to moonwalk towards Tayuya. She put her Doki on stand-by, and charged towards Sidestep. He was dancing and grooving out of the way of Tayuya's swings, and Sidestep twisted out of the way, and kicked her dead in the jaw.
She flew in the air, and landed on her feet. She then growled in irritation, and wiped her mouth off. (He isn't moving in a pattern at all.) Tayuya thought to herself, as she dodged the kicks that he was throwing, a lot of them nearly hitting her. She jumped back, and began to play her flute. Sidestep twisted and turned to avoid the attacks coming from all over the place, but he still managed to kick Tayuya a few times, in the jaw, in the exact same area.
Tayuya hit the ground hard, and spit some blood out. (The orthodontist is going to have a heart attack.) Tayuya joked lamely in her mind, as Sidestep spun in place. She jumped up, and charged, and while he was spinning, his foot shot out, and caught her in the gut, and he roundhouse kicked her in the side of her face, knocking her out.
Sidestep stopped spinning, and smirked. "Sorry girlie, it's high time you die." Sidestep said, and hopped back when a Bone Knife landed where he was. Sidestep looked on, as Kimimaro landed next to Tayuya.
"What are you, her boyfriend?" Sidestep asked. "We don't have that kind of relationship. I am the leader of our group, so her life is in my care." Kimimaro said. Sidestep shrugged, and turned to walk away. "Tell your girlfriend that she should learn to not underestimate her enemies. I'm sure she had something like that Spider Boy." Sidestep said, as he walked into his portal.
"She got her ass kicked!" Kidomaru said, as Sakon smirked. "Maybe it will knock her 'I'm better than you' mindset down a few blocks." Sakon said, smirking. "Guys!!" The 4 conscious Shadow Nin turned, and saw Zaku, Kin, Dosu, and Sanosuke coming towards them, looking like they were in a fight.
"You three look like you had fun." Sakon said. "Can it, Lipstick Boy!" Zaku said, and Sakon glared at him. "Just because he wears green lipstick doesn't make him any less normal than us." Dosu said, adding to the insult.
"Maybe he's suffering from 'Moss of the Lip' or something." Sanosuke snickered at that comment, as Sakon punched the hell out of Zaku. "What's so funny punk?" Sakon said.
"Zaku is." Sanosuke replied, in a smart ass-like tone. Sakon's glare became fierce, and Ukon appeared on his stomach. "I say we kill him now brother!" Ukon said. "Hn. Either a crazy Kekkei Genkai, or you bring a whole new meaning to the term Siamese Twins." Sanosuke commented, and Jirobo had to restrain Sakon from attacking.
(WHY THAT NO GOOD, DIRTY MOTHER FUC-) "Why is your face red?" Kidomaru asked. Kin blushed bright red, and Sanosuke groaned. "Long story." Both said at the same time.
ShadowRonin: So in the end, Tayuya loses, but keeps her life. Had she not underestimated the dancing fiend, she could have won, but then again, maybe she wouldn't. We will never know now. The new questions is what the heck Sanosuke is doing with the Shadow Trio? Maybe next chapter will answer that. Maybe.
Next Chapter: Zaku, Kin , and Dosu are caught in the middle of a giant assault by the Skeleton things that are attacking in groves. Sanosuke is somehow dragged into the battle, searching for Koji. How will this 4-man Squad fare? Find out on:
