Decisions of Love
Chapter 16
"Just gonna stand there and watch me burn, but that's okay because I like the way it hurts. Just gonna stand there and watch me hurt... but thats okay because I love the way you lie. Love the way you lie."
"Two down. Three to go." Sakura taunted with complete seriousness while she faced a large blue man and a emotionless Uchiha and a Masked man.
"Who's next?!" Sakura asked and took a step forward with her perfectly pedicured high heels covered foot. She smiled and pushed her hair out of her face. Kisame growled a few curses and walked forward towards the pink haired girl.
"You little brat! I promise I'll beat you in an inch of your life." Kisame growled before running straight at her.
"And here I thought you might be smarter than the last two." Sakura said with her eyes closed while he threateningly ran straight at her. She frowned and opened an eye and looked at him. He was two yards in front of her before he sharply turned and headed for a sweating and Vulnerable Naruto.
She moved before she could even comprehend what she was doing. In seconds Kisame jumped and was bringing his sword down on a surprised and defenseless Naruto. The large shark sword was an inch away from his head when a blur of pink flipped over the sword and grabbed the end. She pulled the sword away with Chakra and kicked Kisame in the face with enhanced Chakra.
Kisame went rolling away twenty feet into tree stumps, while his sword lay a few feet away from the tumbling girl, she rolled twice after a rough landing, but quickly popped up, aware of who she was in the presence of.
She flipped over Naruto, Kisame's shark sword in hand. She could feel the sword trying to eat at her Chakra, but getting nothing in return. She was a chakra depriver, and so was the sword neither would be able to eat away the others chakra. She did four fast back handsprings and a backflip before landing farther away from her blond haired best friend. She smirked and twirled Kisame's sword between her fingers like it was a senbon.
He growled and ran at her before he could comprehend his mistake. The real Sakura appeared behind him and swung the sword at the larger, bluer man. Instinctively Kisame caught his sword and ripped it out of the rosette haired girls hands. Her hair blew in her face. She was temporarily blinded.
He didn't wait another second before using that rather large advantage. He swung his sword. A splash noise was heard while everyone looked in horror, expecting to see tons of blood and guts on the ground. That's what the sound and Kisame's smug look made them think. Kisame closed his eyes and grinned a mad mans grin. Thinking he killed her.
His trained ears were met with a thud on the ground; thinking it was her body he turned away from the water clones wet remains and the log. A moment to late was when Kisame recognized his mistake. An angry looking Sakura snapped his Seven Swords Man Sword in half. The supposedly "indestructible" sword had been snapped by Sakura's monsterous ad inhuman strength.
Thank Tsundae for being my shishu! If she hadn't been I wouldn't have this incredible strength... And temper. Sakura thought absentmindedly with small sarcasm.
She stabbed a rather Shocked looking Kisame in the abdomen with the spiky blade, he let out a small cry of pain and bit his lip to conceal the bubbling sensation, the side with the handle pierced his front half, and some of his back half. She quickly twirled around Kisame's body and struck him with the other half in his upper torso; and chest area.
A sickening scream erupted from his body while his sword worked against him and sucked the Chakra out against his will. Ino whimpered and leaned into Shikamaru for support, while Tenten grimaced and looked away. Hinata fell backwards and look sick, Kisame's horrific scream reminded them how torturous their friend really could be... Especially when she got Angry.
Sakura mercifully kicked the back of his right knee making him fall to his knees, his body shuddered forward while he lost consciousness. Sakura mumbled a few snide remarks before looking at her more controlled teammates. Naruto had remained Naruto and most of the men were on their feet, Ino and Hinata stood shakily being supported by their team mates.
Sakura smiled at her friends and turned her back to her two enemies. "Promise me one thing." Sakura asked showing a real smile, while her shoulders tensed farther if that was even possible, her body was incredibly tense, she would be asking so much of them.
They all stood on the tips if there toes waiting for her to spit it out. Finally she met their eyes again after looking at the ground as if deciding her decision, her eyes were hard and emotionless, this battle she would have to be completely focused, skilled and smarter. But mostly she would have to be Emotionless.
"You will not interfere in this fight..." Sakura was interrupted by everyone's protests.
"Sakura-Chan your crazy! Ill let to you fight two Uchiha's when hell freezes over!" Naruto protested making the Kunochi fume.
"You've already fought three Akatsuki members, rest." Neji ordered.
"You didnt let me finish!..." Sakura snarled angrily. She breathed in and out before her defiant green eyes flicked over onyx, bright blue's, pure white, chocolate brown, grey, and Red.
"What makes you think you could stop me anyways! You would still be in that damned Genjutsu if I hadn't released you... Don't interfer ...until I give the sign." Sakura said anger flashed across her beautiful features before she whirled around, her face conveying a emotionless mask.
Naruto stepped forward to protest but Kakashi's hand rested firmly on his shoulder halting him from stopping the angry kuncohi. "Naruto you know Sakura as well as I do... If not better..."
" Put your faith in her like she always did to you... All of you, she wouldn't have second guessed your actions, she would have been there to back you... Us up we must back her up!" Kakashi gave a short speech and Sakura smirked at her former sensi. He knew her so well... We'll have to see how well he knows me, maybe he won't fall for it. Maybe just maybe.
She smirked more to herself Before she caught the small barley noticeable movements of Itachi Uchiha. In seconds large fireballs sprouted from his poised hands towards her slack form. When the flames and smoke cleared she was well hidden in the trees. She had practiced with Tsundae and Kuriena-sensi for hours on this special Genjutsu.
It copied the area exactly and would switch off and on, subtle differences would be noticed but this Genjutsu was created by herself, it took lots of focus. The jutsu worked on Neji and Kakashi, she fooled the Sharingan and then the Buyakuugan.
She smiled to herself and crotched out of sight. She focused and made a circle hand sign with her middle fingers and poised the other fingers in weird positions, before doing eight rapid hand signs.
Boar, Tiger, Dragon, Rabbit, Dog, Ram, Bird, Ox.
A small breeze blew past her and into the clearing where all the Shinobi were waiting, the Genjutsu would now switch on and off between real and unreal, she would only stop and use the element of surprise in the needed moment.
She used Kage Bushin and let a small layer of Genjutsu cover her real Genjutsu. She smirked at her Guinness plan that Nara Shikamaru would be proud of. She let harmless cherry blossoms fall from the trees it only looked suspicious when the circled around the clearing.
In seconds the beautiful flower petals turned to sharp Shuriken and long Senbon mixed with a few petals as disguise. Both Uchiha quickly jumped up onto higher tree branches trying to evade the attack.
Sakura appeared behind the despised Uchiha that primarily ruined Sasuke's life. She grabbed his body and started pulling him into the tree before the tree was Shattered and her clone popped. He ripped his foot out of the once closing tree branch, he growled a low unheard growl.
Madara stood alert and ready for her attacks, not underestimating her but not thinking highly of her either. She never appeared to attack him. He saw Itachi's ever more so frowned face and knew she had made an advance on him.
While Madara searched Itachi's face for an sign of what she had attempted to do her so slightly let his guard drop and found himself flying across the clearing. The girl mockingly standing in the shade of the tree he had been poised on.
"Oh and I thought Uchiha's were suppose to be Prodigies? How wrong I was! Your nothing but idiots, you have enough knowledge to attack as a team but not enough patients to stay on guard." She mocked, her eyes cold. "Tell me is it just the Uchiha I know, or were they all custom to Betraying the village!?" Sakura asked and earned a spark from all the Uchina in the clearing.
"Sakura..." Sasuke hissed not very loudly but her trained chakra enhanced ears caught it.
Itachi's cool denomour dropped for a split second before his emotionless blank face took over again, but the anger was still throbbing inside of him, that's what his oncoming attacks told her anyways.
Itachi flipped his body around the pinkette. His movements were so fast they either were blocked or made contact, that was the only Time you saw them. Sakura significantly blocked his attacks a few hits were made on her shoulder, but she dodged vital hits and pressure points.
Madara was performing handsigns and moving rapidly at the dou fighting.
"Gunbai Fanned Wind." Madara whispered while he pulled out to large Genbai fans and swiped them back and forth again while he leap in the air and sent three strong wind gusts at Sakura. Itachi had leap back in time to avoid the hit, while Sakura popped and and a dark brown and black liquid fell to the ground.
In seconds the liquid rose and twirled into a dragon, pushing through the strong wind. Sakura appeared a few feet back from where she stood in while fighting Itachi. She did four rapid hand signs- Boar, Ox, Monkey, Tiger. The oil burst into flames and wrapped around the wind.
Like Sakura predicted the wind was eaten by her fire. The red hungry flames enfolded the clearing, Sakura took advantage of the moment of their blindness and created a water clone.
She ran up a tree and put a explosive tag under the branch. She pushed off and flew through the air, she forced little blue foot squares to appear in the air so she could walk in the air without waiting a lot of Chakra. She poised on one large square and sighed.
"here goes nothing." Sakura whispered to herself before she pulled out five large windmill shuriken. She smiled to herself and let the blue Chakra deplete. The sensation of falling filled her stomach before she twirled four times and threw the large weapons.
She used the Genjutsu to cover herself up until the point of her fourth twist and weapon aim. Itachi had been throwing weapons at her clone. And got his arm caught with her windmills shuriken.
She saw the blood spirt out of his large arm wound, her medic instincts told her to heal while her hatred and fighting instincts told her to use this moment wisely. She choose the later option. She launched two Windmill Shuriken at Madara, he easily dodged and snickered.
"Is that all you have little girl." Madara snarled mockingly.
"Nope!" Sakura whispered in his ear before forcefully doing a roundhouse kick to his lower back. He flew forward and tumbled before slowly getting up. Itachi appeared right by his side.
"Seems like your finally understanding." Sakura said with a smirk and took a defensive stance while the both spilt and charged at the same time, Itachi Katana poised in hand. Madara had a jutsu starting in effect, something with fire.
Itachi swung his sword at her neck, she easily crouched, a few centimeters of her hair was cut off, but better than her life. Madara appeared behind her trapping her in.
"You have nowhere to run Kunochi." Madara spoke with a dark twisted voice.
Sakura stuck her Kunai in the ground and flipped around the kunai, kicking an oncoming Itachi under the chin. She got a small but deep cut on her right leg. She continued with spinning on her kunai to dodge Madara's sweltering fireballs.
She smirked as she extended her hand and caught a ball of flames, she sent it to Itachi. While Itachi was distracted she grabbed the corner of his cloak and slid underneath it, and him. She pulled the cloak until it loosened and released his body.
She swirled it in front of her, covering her body. Madara sent more fireballs at the swirling cloak. When the cloak fell she was gone. She appeared in front of Madara and sent a Chakra enhanced punch at his pretty basketball like mask. He didn't have time to dodge her attack.
Her fist connected with his mask and he went soaring backwards. She didn't have time to dodge Itachi's sword and got sliced through her arm, the blade skimped on the bone before it was pulled out.
She bit her lip to keep from crying out in pain. Instead she smirked and caught his sword with her hand, the blade sliced her palm and fingers wrapped around the blade. Blood poured out of the wound. She wouldn't let go and in seconds she sent electricity through the blade into his body before Unclenching the blade and jumping away out of breath.
Madara appeared out of the line of trees he destroyed, all three were breathing laborious breaths, before Sakura made one hand sign and the Two Uchiha's bodies froze. She made quick attacks, hitting pressure points and Chakra releases.
The Two Uchiha's cursed themselves silently for being tricked. She worked fast on there bodies doing as much possible before getting thrown back. One thing Itachi Uchia did not realize she did, was attach Chakra strings to his body, he could be her puppet for the oncoming fight.
