I Need a Hero

Disclaimer: I do NOT own Naruto or Skillet

Pairing: somewhat Kakashi/Anko

Warning: None

I'm just a step away

I'm just a breath away

Losing my faith today

Falling off the edge today

A war-torn battlefield was all that the eye could see. Many fierce battles raged and in what seemed like the dead center of the action was a pair of ninja. A white-haired genius and a snake-wielding kunoichi.

I am just a man

Not superhuman

I'm not superhuman

Someone save me from the hate

The forearm of Hatake Kakashi burst forth with lightning chakra as the sound of a thousand birds chirping filled the air. While his partner, Mitarashi Anko, had snakes crawling from her sleeves preparing to strike a handful of enemies.

It's just another war

Just another family torn

Falling from my faith today

Just a step from the edge

Just another day in the world we live

Several more enemies met their ends at the hands of the Copy-Cat Ninja and Snake Mistress of Konoha. The two jounin steadily worked their way through the swathes of enemies that never seemed to end. But the two were finding their limits arriving a little too soon for their liking.

I need a hero to save me now

I need a hero, save me now

I need a hero to save my life

A hero will save me just in time

They both took cover behind a shattered building in the border town they were fighting in. After exchanging exhausted gazes the two elite ninja popped another soldier pill and felt the chakra exhaustion disappear. And just when they thought they had a chance to rest, a massive volley of kunai darted towards them.

I've gotta fight today

To live another day

Speaking my mind today

My voice will be heard today

A quickly executed Kawarimi no Jutsu saved them from the more fatal strikes, but it certainly didn't stop all the kunai from hitting their marks. Kakashi unleashed several destructive fireballs in the direction the kunai flew from, only to be rewarded with agonizing screams of terror.

I've gotta make a stand

But I am just a man

I'm not superhuman

My voice will be heard today

A rather large snake summon finished off the rest of the attackers as well as destroying several more buildings around herself and Kakashi. The falling rubble gave the Konoha ninja a chance to run for better cover and a better view of the situation they were in.

It's just another war

Just another family torn

My voice will be heard today

The countdown begins to destroy ourselves

They watched as the still massive enemy attack force destroyed what was left of their allies and all, but ended the battle. Anko laughed humorlessly before fixing Kakashi with a tired smile "Looks like this is the end for us… And to think that I'd wait this long to admit that I really want someone to save us."

I need a hero to save me now

I need a hero, save me now

I need a hero to save my life

A hero will save me just in time

Kakashi also chuckled a little despite the situation "Yeah, too bad that the last of the great war heroes died with the Yondaime and Sandaime. But who knows? Maybe my students can save us." Anko laughed a little louder at such a preposterous suggestion.

I need a hero to save my life

I need a hero, just in time

Save me just in time

Save me just in time

"So, shall we light the fuse one last time Kashi-kun?" Anko asked of her current teammate. Said teammate smirked behind his mask before nodding and lifting up his hitai-ate to reveal his Sharingan eye.

Who's gonna fight for what's right?

Who's gonna help us survive?

We're in the fight of our lives

And we're not ready to die

The enemy attack force found themselves hit with several kunai… kunai that had explosive tags attached to them! Powerful explosions ripped into the attack force that thought they had claimed victory only a moment ago.

Who's gonna fight for the weak?

Who's gonna make 'em believe?

I've got a hero, I've got a hero

Living in me

One of the enemy commanders spotted two human-shaped forms perched on top of the remains of a once mighty building. He immediately cried for his me to regroup and attack the offending Konoha scum!

I'm gonna fight for what's right

Today I'm speaking my mind

And if it kills me tonight

I will be ready to die

Kakashi took off down the building with a Chidori in hand with a pack of lightning wolves in his wake, while his partner summoned a massive three-headed snake. The enemy force had no idea what hit them.

A hero's not afraid to give his life

A hero's gonna save me just in time

With half of the force eliminated, the two Konoha ninja found themselves once again digging deep to prevent the impending defeat that they felt coming. The deepest part of their hearts and souls cried out for a hero to save them!

I need a hero to save me now

I need a hero, save me now

I need a hero to save my life

A hero will save me just in time

The enemy managed to get them surrounded forcing them to go back to back to dodge jutsu and projectiles just to stay alive. The end was near… it was only a matter of time until they fell to the overwhelming odds.

(I need a hero)

Who's gonna fight for what's right?

Who's gonna help us survive?

Suddenly there was a massive cloud of smoke all over the city signaling the arrival of long-awaited back-up. Several medium-sized battle toads met the enemies while a pink-haired kunoichi appeared before the two exhausted, injured jounin. Kakashi's two remaining students had come to his and Anko's rescue just in time.

(I need a hero)

Who's gonna fight for the weak?

Who's gonna make 'em believe?

I've got a hero

Kakashi and Anko finally had a chance to rest as Sakura healed them and Naruto made quick work of the remaining enemies. Kakashi heard Anko laugh a little before allowing her eyes to settle on Kakashi "Looks like your students did come, how about that?"

I need a hero

A hero's gonna save me just in time

Kakashi turned to grin at Anko "Y'know, I was sorta hoping that they would come to save us," he chuckled ", Because I was completely out of chakra and I know that you were too." Anko bowed her head before adding quietly "They saved our asses… they saved us just in time." Kakashi nodded "Those heroes saved us just in time."

A/N: Alright so no romance and certainly not as good as my previous ones, but at least it wasn't as emo. Still love the song and the pairing… don't know if they match but I don't care xD

You may request a pairing(or subject) and song if you'd like, I'm open to suggestions.
