Incredibly short chapter today, I couldn't put all that action shit into one chapter because that would only cause a cliffhanger.


Naruto

He was having a hard time believing what he was witnessing was not imaginary. That's saying a lot coming from a daemon cursed boy. Sure he's seen his best friend angry. He's even seen Sasuke punch a hole in a wall thus breaking a hand mad. Has he never seen Sasuke glowing purple, spouting humungous limb mad? No, Naruto can't say he has.

He rapidly got over his initial shock, Sasuke being his sworn rival shalt out do him! Naruto gleefully closed his eyes and ventured deep into his mind.

'Hey buddy!' Behind cage walls, a tired, rather large, fox lifted its head.

'Whatever it is, no.' the animal grumbled, lying back down.

'Come on! You can finally see some action!' Naruto coaxed.

'Shukaku is out there.'

'For an eight-foot, nine-tailed beast you sure are a whiney pussy.'

Kumara growled, 'what did you say, brat?'

'Whiney? Or pussy?'

'You win, this time, Uzumaki.' The fox relented, stretching a paw outside the bars. Naruto gave a victory smile and bumped his fist with the demon.

Back on the surface, golden and auburn fur blew in the tornado like winds. A growl broke through bared teeth as Kumara Naruto ran up to cleave the arm that held Sakura off, knowing Sasuke would be there to catch her. Naruto nearly dodged the swords Sasuke did not warn him about.

"Oi! Teme! Watch where you throw you sharp ass objects!"

"Hn." Sasuke called back. "Hold him there while I look over Sakura."

"Rodger!"


Sasuke

The purple monster lifted his Goddess, dropping her unceremoniously into his arms. He still didn't have great control on this thing.

She wasn't breathing. Did she breathe before? He couldn't remember. She didn't eat human food, so why would she need to breathe right? By that logic his heart should decrease in speed, yet it pounded against his chest. He didn't have medical supplies to heal her, nor did he even know how to start.

"Sasuke! Hand her over!" Looking down, Tsunade ran over. "I can help her."

He didn't have much of a choice, and he couldn't leave Naruto to deal with Kabuto. He commanded that the man give Sakura over, and it listened.

Turning to Naruto, he caught the fox boy as he was flung in his direction.

"Look at me, juts falling for you." The idiot blond hated heavy situations, as you can see from his tasteless joke. Anything to earn a smile from those around him Sasuke learned.

"On your feet loser." Sasuke dropped him on his ass.

"I knew it." Ranginui spat. "Susano'o rises again. My how I have not missed you..."

'How rude, Ranginui. And to thing I manifested just to see you again.' Its mouth didn't move, yet Sasuke knew what he was suspended in had to be Susano'o.

"Then why not be a good boy, hand over the Goddess, and drag your sorry ass back into my body."

'And miss seeing this runt clobber you sad excuse of a face? No thank you, front row suits me fine.' There was something akin to sarcasm coming from Susano'o. Confirmed when he laughed.

"Then allow me to drag you back myself!" Everything was in slow motion. Sasuke could see the moves he planed before Ranginui himself executed any. Was this the power Susano'o lent him?

"Sasuke! Throw me!" Naruto bounced into his arms.

"What?" Sasuke promptly dropped him.

"Throw me! Into him!" Naruto grabbed his friend's hand as Sasuke spun in circles. When Naruto gave the okay, Sasuke let go and Naruto flew into Kabuto's face, causing both to fall. Naruto caught his grounding first as he relentlessly struck the God.

Ranginui moved his arm lightly left, manifesting a black sphere. He pressed it to Naruto's chest. Naruto coughed a steam of red before spiraling into a rock back first. That gave Sasuke an opening to heave another bow into Maori King. Ranginui brushed it off like a bug, serpent slits now glaring at him. Sasuke didn't have the time to dodge the attack, but enough to pull a sword and jab it into his attackers throat. Ranginui put a single claw through Susano'o and ultimately through Sasuke's chest.

The Japanese God came prepared, shielding the boy's heart. He couldn't have him dead. Not yet.

Hey boy. Use some skill here. I can't continue to make up for you.

Trying here. Sasuke thought angrily. His tactician mind overrode anxiety, shooting a mile a minute. He needed some way to utilize this body to its full extent. The images implanted in his mind only scratched the surface of what Susano'o could do.

"Sasuke!" Naruto was by his side once more. "Try combining our powers."

"That is the dumbest idea I have ever-." Sasuke stopped to think a moment. Naruto must know something he doesn't to think this logically. To his knowledge, the Dobe rarely thought with a straight mind. Usually they all had to do with ramen or Hinata, even sometimes his family, but the two were almost always at the forefront.

"Where did you come up with such a thing?" He had to know this wasn't a gut feeling.

"Kumara said it'd work..." Naruto scratched at his sunny hair. "So I'm making it up to him by listening to whatever plan he has."

Ranginui wouldn't allow them the time to pair up, though, having charged the boys. Sasuke leapt back as did Naruto, evading the swing of talons. They needed a plan that worked quickly, if not faster, than their assailant.

"What ever it is you thought of better work." Sasuke took to the sky, avoiding near death by divine being, to reach his best friend. Kumara reached out to take Susano'o's arm, pulling him to the ground.

'Watch it fox...' The God seethed.

'And miss the look of surprise on your smug face, sure.' Kumara sneered back, letting his power seep into his long time friends.

'My, it's been centuries. Don't fuck it up.'

'Just do your part, pretty boy.'

Susano'o's armor wrapped tightly around the Nine-Tailed beast, wings still intact. A brilliant lavender covered golden rays, only the tails and right muzzle visible from the shell. Naruto took his place next to Sasuke and smirked, a trait adopted from said man. A small tap of fist had the ground erupting from under Ranginui.

The God stumbled, giving the team enough leverage to lodge teeth into his throat.

"That was for Sakura-Chan!" Naruto bellowed.

The transformed beast/God sung a sword to his arm.

"And that was for lying about that child." Sasuke growled.


Ranginui

He was growing tired of these two idiots ruining his ultimate plans. Even more peeved about the God's slip from his power. He wasn't strong enough without the Japanese God. Although, he had managed to tear some of Uranus' essence from his beloved Goddess. Utilizing that could crack this world in half, explode stars, or even make the sun fall to the earth.

"GallĂ»! Leave those half-wits and help your master." He commanded in Arabic. The winged leviathans, pulling at one of Sasuke's wings. Once one of the larger creatures, Asag, had a proper grip, he tore off the wing, causing Susano'o's energy to waver. Sasuke fell to a knee, caught by Naruto.

"Enough!" Ranginui struck the neck, holding tightly. Blood seeped through his fingers as gold and purple were drawn into his palm. "Come back, now, Susano'o. I have endless torments to bestow upon you."

Poseidon interfered, using his katana to sever the outflow. "Move, Sasuke."

"You are really starting to piss me off, Sea God." Out the corner of his yellow gaze, he saw the two make a retreat, the gorgeous overflow of power fading. He had absorbed enough to render them useless. The God and Beast would need time to recuperate, time he would not lend. Ranginui threw the Greek off him. He landed some feet away.

"I grow tired of games. Uranus, I call upon thee, lend thy hand to me, allow me victory."

Zeus took swift action, calling on the last of his power to shield him and his allies. Lightning rained in droves. Zeus fell to his knee by its force. The other God's linked their power to king of the Greek Gods, relieving trauma that would later show on his soul.

Ranginui set his sight on Sasuke. If the boy were eliminated, he'd have it all. The Goddess, the world, the universe.

Cannon fire distracted him. He had forgotten about the weak race known as humans. He gestured Asag to dispose of them. A mighty swing from his wing covered them in dust and their own equipment. Now there was no stopping him, he would rid the world of that pest.

Ranginui made his way leisurely toward the young Uchiha. Almost comically plucking him from the God's hold to toss him into the sky. He lifted a claw, ready to impale his small form and be done with it. Kumara wouldn't let that happen, throwing his self into the arm to have Naruto be pierced through his stomach.

"So many distractions!" He cried. Poseidon snatched Sasuke from the sky. "Why wont you all stay down?"

Naruto chuckled, twisting his body to snap off the nail off into Kumara and himself. "Because people like you exist." Naruto pried the nail with the Tails' claws, ramming into its owner's chest.

The boy with Golden hair fell to the ground, being caught by his mother.

"Minato! Help me out here!" She screeched, tears threatening to fall.

Ranginui ignored them; his goal was Sasuke, who was being protected by that other nuisance. "Hand over the boy, Poseidon."

"Sure thing, would you also like world damnation with that?" Madara frowned.

"Then die with him!" Asag launched from them, wiping Sea King off his feet, into the ground. The strike left the earth with a crater large enough to serve as a grave. The Maori King picked up the unconscious Sasuke, squeezing him with his fist. The boy heaved, air rushing from his lungs.

"Die boy." Ranginui smiled once the cracking of bone reached his hungry ears. Uchiha's screams were so melodic he could dance. "Die!"

Sasuke looked up, one eye being closed due to pain. "You first."

Fingers protruded from his throat. Contorted words fell and spattered indigo into his victims pale cheek. Craning his neck, there she was. That damned Goddess in her damned dog alter ego.

"How did you-?"

"Leave my human alone." Those black, soulless, pure unadulterated evil orbs forever marred his mind.


Oh look, a cliffhanger. Oops.
