Chapter 17
Silent Hell – Part 3
In Konoha, Hiruzen Sarutobi was eyetwitching, up to now, he has believed that the mission to Silent Hill was more like a vacation for the genins, for it was one of the most peaceful places of the land of fire, but now, as he was watching Ankiseth, the man that filled his nightmares, and Desmond, the one that gave the information to Edward, chatting cheerfully about the old times
"Desmond-san, didn't you say that you gave the information to Elric-sama BEFORE meeting this man?", Sarutobi asked to the young man
"Yes, I gave that information to the short blonde before meeting with my old and new employer here on Konoha", Desmond replied
"You never mentioned that you knew him from before", Sarutobi said, his voice denoted annoyance
"I assure you that it was a misunderstanding, a semantic issue, nothing harmful I swear", Ankiseth interjected with his foxy grin and sweet voice
"Is there any other semantic issue that I should be warned today?", Sarutobi asked sarcastically, while planning to send a rescue team to that town
"Not that I have knowledge of, by the way, did your honoured grandson mention the books I suggested for his enlightenment, I believe he will become a wise shinobi with that kind of books", Ankiseth replied, his smile still warm, while Sarutobi paled, now he started to doubt that coincidences really existed
Meanwhile, in some place of Silent Hill...
Kurenai, Shino, Kiba and Akamaru were exhausted, they had battled lots of creatures, they were slow and stupid, but they were just too many, and their blood and flesh was toxic, biting and clawing them was a bad idea, just as Kiba and Akamaru discovered, both had their claws burned, and Akamaru was poisoned by the flesh that he had just bitten, while Shino was starting to lose his calm, for his insects refused to come out, the Queen on his head was so scared that she refused to allow any insect to be used outside his body, while Kurenai found that the creatures were unaffected by the genjutsus, forcing her to fight straight forward, thing that she clearly didn't excelled at
"This is bad, really bad, who let the door to hell open?", Kiba joked, trying to lessen the build up stress of the group
"I don't know, but I'm going to shove a hive of enraged wasps up her ass if we ever encounter her", Shino replied the joke, whenever something bad happened, they blamed it all on the banshee, and Kurenai couldn't do anything about it, it was things like this that made her want to pummel whoever put the pink haired genin on her tracker team
"Boys, don't jump on conclusions so soon, besides she is already going to be punished for abandoning us, if she managed to survive on her own", Kurenai added, but the truth was, that if she manages to get a hold on her, she will strangle her to death
Suddenly, the sounds of growls startled them, and they noticed that they were surrounded by dog like creatures, too many to escape or get away unharmed, so, they turned to the only viable option
"Kiba, please tell me that you can reason with them", Kurenai stated very worried
"I can't, they only say two words, Hunger and Sinners, they had no mind, sorry for failing you", Kiba replied with sorrow, feeling useless was the worst for him
"Don't worry, at least we'll die like a team, did I ever told you that you are my best friend?", Shino asked, and soon, they entered into a battle stance, tired, injured, and with no hopes of survival, until...
BANG! BANG! BANG!
It was the unmistakable sound of Konoha's most deadly weapon, Casull, which could only meant that his wielder, Naruto, has just arrived to save their skins, and where Naruto was, the most beautiful Angel danced around, and just as they reasoned this, the multicolored blur passed among the dog like creatures, reducing them to pieces, soon, the horde of dogs were reduced to gridded meat, and Naruto and Hinata were now standing in front of them
"Kurenai-sensei, Shino, Kiba, Akamaru, are you ok?", Hinata asked with concern, while Naruto kept Casull unfolded, eyeing the surroundings in case something else lurked out of the mist, until team 8 fell to the ground, thing that forced him to look at them
"No, we are not, we are tired, battered, Kiba have his hands burned, and Akamaru is poisoned", Kurenai replied, she was too tired to stand up and look strong
"Naruto, don't you happen to have some of the rare medicine that your father sells, one of those that heals and fill with energy the body and mind?", Shino asked, the cool mask thrown aside
"Nope I don't have any of these with me", Naruto replied
"I guess such potion was only a rumor", Kiba sadly said
"Hinata is the one who is carrying them", Naruto suddenly stated, and this made team 8 to face fault, earning the snickering from both Naruto and Hinata
"JUST SHARE IT WITH US ALREADY!", Kurenai shouted, and soon, she and the boys got a strange seed like thing on their hands, before Kurenai or Kiba could ask about it, Shino eagerly eat it, and the effect was instantaneous, he was completely healed and refreshed, and upon seeing him, Kurenai, Kiba and Akamaru followed suit
"Goddamnit!, this stuff is of legendary legend!, why don't we carry a sack of these on our missions?", Kurenai asked, really surprised by the effects, and Naruto just smirked
"Because it's expensive", at Naruto's short explanation, Kurenai went stiff, she just didn't want to hear the price
Meanwhile...
"What are you going to do to me?!", Al shouted to the very tall woman that was holding him
"I think I was clear enough, I'm going to use your blood to get us out of here", the woman replied
"But I don't want to die!", Al shouted again, without his alchemy, he was pretty much defenceless, not that he was bad at martial arts, but in his human form he wasn't strong enough to fight back
"Who said something about killing you?", the woman asked
"RETURN MY BROTHER TO ME, YOU UGLY BITCH!!!", Ed shouted, earning the attention of both the woman and Al
"BROTHER!", Al shouted, really happy to have found his dear brother, and ignoring the two girls acompanying him
"WHO ARE YOU CALLING SO UGLY THAT NOT EVEN HER MOTHER WOULD ACEPT TO CALL HER DAUGHTER IN PUBLIC!", The tall woman ranted, and Al had a dreadful feeling about this
"Master Ed did not say that", Ashlotte interjected, making her presence acknowlegeable
"Who do you think you are?, do you know with who are you talking?, I'M HELA, GODDESS OF THE DEAD, KEEPER OF THE GATES OF HEL!", the woman introduced herself
"Gezz, another Uchiha-like-attitude idiot", Ed replied with disgust
"DON'T TALK LIKE THAT OF SASUKE-KUN!", Sakura shouted, not missing the chance to show that she was a fangirl of the chicken butt hair bastard
"SHUT UP!!!!!", Everyone shouted at her, making her cower on fear
"Whatever, just hand over my little brother!", Ed demanded, and Hela looked at both boys quizicaly, and Al braced himself for what he knew was going to happen
"Little brother?, curious, for you height difference, I thought you were older than him", Hela said to Al, and then Ed exploded
"WHO ARE YOU CALLING A MIDGET PIPSQUEAK THAT CAN'T GO TO THE BEACH BECAUSE HE WILL SINK ON THE SAND, BUT WHEN THE TIDAL WAVE COMES HE DON'T HAVE TO WORRY BECAUSE HE CAN BREATH THE OXYGEN MOLECULES DIRECTLY FROM THE WATER!!!!!!", Ed shouted with his unholy rage, and neither Hela or Sakura could decide if laugh at the long short rant, or cower in fear, until a hiss interrupted the reunion
"OH SHIT!, NOT AGAIN THOSE!!!", Al shouted on fear, noticing the spiders, but unlike last time, this was a whole hive, houndreads of the hellish insects were heading toward them
"Too many...", Hela said, not sure if she will be able to maintain alive her key to freedom
"TO THE HELL WITH ALL OF YOU!!!", Ed shouted, he was angry, and he just found who was going to pay, he raised one of his hands toward the incoming spiders, in a well know stance that Al recognized instantly
"It can't be, that's Mustang's...", Al managed to say, and then, Ed snapped his fingers, and a truly raging inferno engulfed every one of the spiders, consuming them all instantly, Al, Sakura and Hela stared with bulged out eyes, and if they were paying attention, they could have noticed a very slight smile on Ashlotte's lips
"That's the true power of the Elric Clan?...", Sakura said with a low voice, she once saw her precious Sasuke breath fire, but it looked like a joke against that technique, that didn't require hand seals
"How can it be, how did he activate the Alchemy on this world, and how he managed to use the Colonel's style at that degree?", Al muttered
"No way!, not even my father can cast such flames so fast!", Hela said, maybe she wasn't the most powerful out there after all, maybe she should call a truce with these humans
"Now, let my brother go, before I lose my patience", Ed threatened, and Hela decided to accept, tu not before explaining herself, in hopes to not lose some valuable allies
"Ok, but I wasn't going to kill him, I just needed him to spill a droplet or two of his virginal blood at the gate that is blocking the way out of this town, I hope you still come with me to the gate, since I believe you are going to want to get out of this place too", Hela explained, and then allowed Al to go to his brother
"I see, still, you shouldn't have forced him that way, I really thought you wanted to harm my brother", Ed stated, incinerating some foes really helped him to calm his nerves
"Humm... before we jump to conclusions, I think we should reconsider the source of the required blood", Al suddenly stated, while fidgeting just like Hinata used to do
"Al?", Ed asked with a raised eyebrow
"Explain yourself, please", Hela asked with a feeling of dread
"What, you can't withstand blood?", Sakura asked
"No, is not that, is just that I... don't qualify for the task...", Al replied while blushing madly
"WHHHAAAAAATTTTT???!!!", Ed shouted while grabbing Al from the collar of his coat
"I SWEAR IT WASN'T WINRY! I SWEAR IT WASN'T WINRY!", Al shouted in hopes of escape from the wrath of his brother
Meanwhile...
Anko was in front of a mansion, she didn't knew how she get there, last thing she remembered was being attacked by a massive horde of bird like creatures, she got surrounded, and then blacked out, however, something seemed wrong about the place, for there was no mist, or signs of life, until she heard a voice
"Come in, Anko Mitarashi", a female voice commanded, and she did as she was told, once inside, she found herself in front of a quite beautiful woman, but instead of being relieved, she was feeling terror, for the nine fox tails were swinging playfully at her back
"Kyuubi", Anko managed to say
"Yes, The Kyuubi no Kitsune, but you are here because you are about to die, unless you accept to work for me", Kyuubi stated, while grinning with evilness
At another point of the town...
There was one man who didn't minded to fight all the demons of hell, a man who found his home in the war, in the battle fields, war was his religion, war was his life, up to now, no human, demon or animal has been able to hurt his skin, the skin of a God, no one has been able to surpass his strength, for he was the strongest of his kind, his smirk made entire armies to stampade over their comrades while running away from him, but today, this very man was eager to scape from his pursuers, who the last thing they wanted was to do physical harm to him
"Come back here, we are tied by fate!", Urd shouted
"Come one, you know you want it!", Verdandi voiced quite seductively
"I swear you are going to enjoy it!", Skuld yelled with her cute voice
"STAY AWAY FROM ME! THOR! BALDUR! HEIMDAL!, WHERE ARE YOU IN MY HOUR OF NEED?!", Lee shouted, despite his godly speed, the norns were getting dangerously closer, and the last thing he wanted, was to fail to the promise he made to Reiko, to be only for her, and certainly, he wanted to keep that promise for both love and fear, for hell know no fury like... well you know how it goes
