Let's get this show on the road shall we

Madara and Sasuke stood at the top of the mountain near the village watching as the demon fox attacked the village.

Madara looked down at Sasuke who was in a kneeling pose on the ground so he could watch the battle from a bit closer.

"Sasuke." Madara said softly.

Sasuke stood up and turned to face the man who reached out and caressed his cheek gently.

"Yes, what is it Madara sama?" Sasuke asked with a look of determination on his face.

"I have a special task for you." Madara said.

"What is it?" Sasuke replied.

"I would like you to go bring me Naruto Uzumaki, and kill anyone who gets in your way." Madara said grabbing hold of Sasuke's chin and leaning in and kissing the soft pink lips lovingly.

"Yes Madara sama." Sasuke said and turned around and hopped down from the ledge he had been standing on and continued down quickly.

~Konoha Main Plaza~

Naruto, Sakura, Kakashi, Neji, Kiba, Akamaru and Shikamaru all stood both staring in shock at what stood in front of them and ready to fight what was in front of them.

The nine tails was a good distance away and they were far enough that they could form a battle plan. They were just about to head out and fight it when Naruto suddenly shouted a certain someone's name.

"Sasuke!" He yelled excitedly. Sure enough there stood Sasuke, but what surprised the younger shinobi was that he was wearing an Akatsuki cloak and he his eyes were full of ice and hate. "Sasuke...why are you...are you helping the Akatsuki?" Sakura asked fearing the answer. Sasuke didn't answer he just looked at Naruto. "You." He said pointing at Naruto with his sword. "Are coming with me, and I will cut down anyone who tries to stop me." Sasuke said in a calm but yet sinister voice. Kakashi took a step forward. "Naruto you guys go on I trust you can do this. I'll hold off Sasuke. Madara is messing with his mind somehow I can tell Sasuke isn't himself. He would never give in to Madara no matter how much he hurt him." Kakashi said taking a step towards the young raven. "But Kakashi sensei..." Naruto started. "Naruto there is no time! Go! Now!" Kakashi said raising his voice. Naruto nodded and the rest of the proud ninjas followed as Naruto led the way into the fight. Sasuke ran at Kakashi with a Chidori charged, Kakashi waited until Sasuke was close enough then used a shadow clone jutsu and kicked Sasuke away from him while Kakashi charged up a lightning blade. He lunged at his student and struck him in the chest.

"Lightning Blade!" He shouted.

Sasuke cried out in pain and stabbed Kakashi in the shoulder with his sword making the white haired man back away afterward to pull it out. Sasuke then started to perform multiple hand signs.

"Fire Style: Dragon Flame Missle!" A large amount of flames with intense heat streamed from Sasuke's lips towards Kakashi but the jonin used the substitution jutsu to escape the blast and appeared behind the boy.

Sasuke was confused for a moment, then he turned around and got back on track again, but Kakashi formed a lightning blade that took the shape of a hound and the dog lunged at Sasuke the lightning dog hit Sasuke in the chest and cried out in pain as the lightning made animal crashed into him and knocked him to the ground also causing him extreme pain when the lightning hit him.

Sasuke's eyes turned to slits and he suddenly appeared behind Kakashi and knocked him out with a powerful blow to the back of the head.

Then he left to go after Naruto.

~Konoha Down Town Area~

Naruto grit his teeth they were all getting beat, he didn't have the kyuubi's powers anymore to back him up, but he did have his Sage Mode. Jiraiya had once showed him out to use it, but it wasn't doing much good. Kiba had taken Akamaru back to get reinforcements and Shikamaru and Neji had been defeated knocked out cold after being thrown around by the fox's tails viciously.

Naruto looked over at Sakura who was looking at him nervously.

"Naruto...we need to retreat." She whispered softly, looking at all the destruction around them.

Naruto shook his head. "No! I won't leave this village to go to it's destruction!" He shouted, then just as he spoke one of the Kyuubi's tails slammed down on top of him knocking him unconscious.

Sakura screamed and the fox slashed his claws across her shoulder making her kneel clutching her shoulder in pain.

Sasuke stood on top of a ruined building watching the fight between the other shinobi and the nine tailed fox, Sasuke watched as the fox threw the them around like they were nothing then finely he saw the fox knock Naruto down.

For some reason something in Sasuke's mind clicked, he kneeled and screamed in pain as the pain returned to his head.

He then looked back up at the scene before him and his eyes widened in surprise.

His eyes narrowed and he jumped down off the building and ran towards the fight.

Sakura watched as the fox continued to destroy everything around it, its tails lashing about everywhere and the giant paws crushing what was bellow them.

Sakura watched as the fox snarled down at Naruto and was about to kill him, she screamed.

"Naruto! No!" She cried.

Then she heard someone yell, "Fire Style: Grand Fireball Jutsu!"

Then a giant fireball hit the fox's paw that was about to crush Naruto was hit and the fox cried out in pain and withdrew its giant clawed hand.

Sakura looked and saw Sasuke standing there with a scowl and mixed with a determined look upon his face.

"Sasuke!" She cried.

"Sakura...get Naruto to safety." Sasuke spoke firmly.

"But Sasuke...you can't fight this thing alone!" Sakura yelled.

"You do not have a say in this. I do. And I am going to fight it. Now get Naruto out of here."

Yay! Go Sasuke!
