D: Good news: This is the last chapter of the fight. Again, I apologize for the short chapter and the cliffy. Anyways, this is the end of the fight, but that also means this story is almost done.
K: Well, we'll miss you until you get the sequel out.
D: I'm not really in the mood to put anyone in this authors note, so, I don't own Naruto. On with the story.
Chapter 19:
Epic Battle Part 3
Hidan and I charged at each other. This was it.
I hoisted his scythe up higher, preparing to swing. I jumped back, scythe still ready, and waited for Hidan to get closer.
Wait. Wait. Wait. Okay, now!
I swung. I was aiming to decapitate him, and then keep Kakuzu away from the body and the head. But it seemed my aim was off. Instead of slicing his head, I ended up making another large gash on his other arm. He jumped back crying out in pain.
"Damn it, bitch, give me my scythe back!" He ordered.
"Um, I don't think so," I said. "Besides, I thought you liked the pain."
"That's only when I inflict it on myself," he said.
"Okay, that's just creepy," I said. "Now I see why you don't like him, Kakuzu."
"Give me back my scythe!" He repeated.
"What are you, a broken record?" I asked, preparing to swipe the scythe again. This time, I wouldn't miss.
He saw me getting ready to attack, and, instead of being logical (for sadistic killers are not normally logical) and trying to think up a plan, do you know what he did? That's right, he ran for the hills. Hahahahahahahaha NO! Of course he didn't, he ran straight for me.
So why did we fight this guy again? It was because he almost killed us. It was your idea, remember? No, not really. *Silence (if there can be silence in ones head* How did I get stuck with you? Because we're the same! Oh boy, lucky me *note the sarcasm*
I swung the scythe. And this time (thank goodness) I didn't miss. His head came clean off.
"Ha! How was that?"
"Damn it! Kakuzu, sew my head on!" Hidan shouted. Just as Kakuzu was about to help him, there was a big puff of smoke in the middle of the clearing as if someone had summoned something.
Just as I was about to accuse Naruto of summoning Gamabunta (did I get the name right?) when he shouldn't have when the smoke started to clear. And who was there, you might ask. Yes, children, it's Santa Clause. No, I'm kidding, Christmas isn't for another couple of months. In fact, it was Tsunade, Shizune, and Jiraiya.
"Lady Tsunade, Shizune, what are you doing here?" Sakura asked in surprise.
"And you too, Pervy Sage, what are you doing here?" Naruto asked.
"We're here to get you guys," Tsunade said simply.
"But how did you figure it out?" Sakura asked, approaching her sensei.
"We created a Summoning Jutsu, and we used a Reverse Summoning," Tsunade explained.
"That's so cool, will you teach me?" Sakura asked.
"Maybe," Tsunade said. Then, projecting her voice, she was talking to everyone. "Now, I don't know what is going on here, but I am ending it. If there are any objections, I will personally beat the shit out of you." The glare she gave everyone was enough to stop everyone, Akatsuki included.
"You crack me up sometimes, Tsunade," Orochimaru said.
"Orochimaru," Tsunade said. Then she turned to Kakashi. "What the hell is he doing here?"
"Can we explain that later?" Kakashi asked.
"Fine," Tsunade said. "Shizune, take the Akatsuki back, I don't want them near Naruto."
"What makes you think we'll go quietly?" Pein asked.
"Because we are your only way home," Tsunade said.
"Ah, touché," Pein said.
"Get your own damn line, Pein," Kye said. Everyone looked at her. "What? That's what Iruka would say."
"What is she talking about?" Tsunade asked.
"Two words: Naruto Abridged," I stated.
"Whatever, Shizune, you know what to do," Tsunade said.
"Right, milady," Shizune said. "Let's go, everyone." She walked over to Pein and everyone gathered around them. Kakuzu picked up Hidan's body and started to walk back.
"Damn it, Kakuzu, get my f***ing head!" Hidan shouted.
"Oh, I almost forgot," Kakuzu said, sounding as if he meant to leave Hidan's head behind.
After a few moments, everyone had gathered around Shizune.
"I'll see you back in the village, Shizune," Tsunade said.
"Yes, ma'am!" Shizune said, and preformed the jutsu.
"Okay, is everyone alright?" Tsunade asked. Everyone nodded, and Kakashi gave a report to Tsunade.
"And those three girls are the ones I trained," Kakashi said. "Wait, where's Kelsey?"
"It seems Itachi brought her with him," I said. "Good riddance is what I say."
"NOOOOOOO!" Everyone looked at Kye. She had fallen to her knees on the water. "Why, Itachi? Why do you betray me so?"
"Um, Kye, I hate to burst your bubble, but I don't think Itachi liked you," I said, kneeling next to her.
"Anyways, how did their training go, Kakashi?" Tsunade asked, ignoring the crying girl on the water.
"Excellent, in fact, didn't you say you made a, um, 'killer combo'?" Kakashi asked me.
"Aw, damn, we didn't get to use that combo," I complained.
"Let's show it to them right now," Kye said, immediately perking up.
"Who should we use it on? Sasuke?" I asked.
"No! Sakura!" She shouted.
"No," I said, defending the terrified girl. Then we exchanged a knowing look. "Should we?"
"Let's," she said, grinning evilly. We stood up and got ready. "Okay, can everyone except for Jiraiya move to the side?"
"Okay, but why everyone except for Jiraiya?" Tsunade asked, moving into the trees with all of the other ninja.
"You'll see," I said. I preformed the necessary hand seals, and then exclaimed, "Water Style: Giant Vortex Jutsu!" The water rose up creating the vortex, and that's when Kye added her lighting jutsu.
"Chidori!' She shouted, after performing the necessary hand seals. He stuck her hand in the water. The electricity wound it's way around the vortex of water, and the lighting/water jutsu combo hit Jiraiya, who didn't suspect a thing.
"I hope we didn't kill him," I said.
"Don't worry, I didn't put my Chidori at full power," Kye said.
"What was that for?" Jiraiya asked weakly.
"For being a pervert, I hope that teaches you not to peep on girls," Kye said. Tsunade was trying to hold in her laughter in while she examined him.
"I guess you'll think twice before you look in a girl's bath house," Tsunade said.
"Not likely," I said.
"That was impressive," Kakashi said. "I've taught you girls well. I'm very proud of you."
"Thank you, Kakashi Sensei," I said. Kye just smiled.
"Well, I can say proudly that, were you born in the Leaf Village, you would be amazing Chunins, possibly Jonins," Tsunade said. "Okay, say your good byes, and then we'll move out." The second Tsunade said that, Kye rushed to Sasuke giving him a huge bear hug.
"SASUKE! I'LL MISS YOU!" She cried out in anguish. I just stood on the water. I wasn't sure what to do, I had only kissed Gaara in private, and I didn't think he wanted me to hug him, so you can imagine my surprise when I felt his arms around me.
"I'll miss you," he said, kissing the top of my head. I looked up, and our lips met for probably the last kiss I would ever get from him.
"Will I ever see you again?" I asked.
"Who knows," he said. "We might need help from you two when the Akatsuki are ready to attack us again." I hugged him tightly, and when we parted he hurried back to the group before Temari could yell at him. Kye and I stood alone by the trees and waved as Tsunade took them all home.
It wasn't until when Kye hugged me that I realized I was crying.
"I'll miss them," I said.
"Me, too, cous," she said. "Me, too."
D: Well, there we go. I'm going to put an epilogue in, and after that, I'm done with this. There will be a sequel. In fact, I'll post it when I post the epilogue so that you guys know when it's out.
K: I'm going *sniff* to miss *sniff* you *sniff* sooooo much! *starts to bawl her eyes out*
D: *hugs Kye* I'll miss you, too, but I'll be back in the epilogue and the sequel! Speaking of which, I'll probably have the epilogue up in two days instead of one because I'll be working on the first chapter of the sequel. Also, I'm thinking of posting a Mulan/Naruto Xover, I've started working on it, but I want to know your opinion, do you think I should do it? There are two Mulan/Naruto Xovers already, so I think it'll work, but I just want to know if you'd like to see one. I'd like to know if that'd be something you'd read. See you in the epilogue!
