I know, I know, you've been waiting a long time to read the "epic" battle between Kagome and Gakuto and the others and I know I'm going off a lot of other battles like with Zabuza but this story is going to be super long so please just review and enjoy what I got in my little head with many imagination! :)
Chapter 11
Kagome fired her arrow loosely shooting barrages of arrows that were not purified to Gakuto.
Gakuto, not knowing she can purify arrows and send them flying faster than any normal arrow, just dodged the arrows and thought that the match was over before it even began.
He teleported behind Kagome to knock her out but she turned around and hit him in the gut with force he didn't know she had.
He flew back a few feet and landed on his feet next to a tree. He spat some silver blood out of his mouth.
"Damn…" Gakuto spat some more blood out.
"So you gonna let me help you and the others? Or do you want your ass handed to you?" Kagome asked with a smirk.
She walked towards Gakuto casually. She kneed in front of him.
Gakuto smirked behind his mask, thinking about her threat.
"Kagome you might be strong…but not as strong as me." Gakuto slowly raised his head revealing his light blue eyes.
The light blue eyes looked deep into the chocolate brown eyes. Kagome blushed a little.
"Umm…Kagome you're on my…" Gakuto began turning red thankful his face was behind his mask.
Kagome looked down and notice her knee was on his lap a little under his waist line. She turned even redder and got up. Gakuto breathed out and started panting.
"Who knew a girl like you can be so heavy…" Gakuto said regretting it after he heard Kagome turn around and run at him.
Gakuto jumped back and managed to see that Kagome hit the tree he was laying on before. She hit the tree with a sickening crack and fell back a little. She then began to cry and curl up into a ball.
"Shit! I'm so sorry Kagome I didn't mean to make you hit the tree!" Gakuto ran to Kagome.
Gakuto bent down to only see a snickering Kagome. It only took him a second to notice that it wasn't the real Kagome.
"Shit!!" Gakuto thought as he saw the shadow clone explode in front of him.
Gakuto landed on his feet and began scanning the area for Kagome.
He felt a faint presence behind him and…underneath?
Gakuto jumped up and threw something to the ground. Nothing happened at first but then a Kagome jumped out of the earth and ran to a nearby tree. 5 seconds later a fire ball came out of the hole. Gakuto chuckled.
"You think that was funny?!" Kagome yelled moving towards Gakuto who was still laughing.
"What do you think?" Gakuto laughed.
"I think you made the biggest mistake of your life!" Kagome yelled running full speed at Gakuto. Gakuto noticed this and jumped up again but Kagome was ready for him this time.
Kagome pulled out one of her already purified arrows and shot the arrow with full force.
The arrow pierced through the sky and made Gakuto go wide eyed at the arrow. He did not expect it and the arrow pierced his shoulder flinging him to a tree and getting him stuck on the tree like Inuyasha once did.
Kagome walked up to Gakuto and smiled at the still wide eyed mystic.
"How?" Gakuto said.
Kagome pulled out the arrow and put it back were it belonged. Gakuto slid down and hit the ground still looking at the miko.
"Easy. You got beaten by a girl!" Kagome teased.
Gakuto smirked behind his mask and moved fast tripping Kagome. Kagome didn't' expect the move and landed where Gakuto once lay. Gakuto placed his knee on Kagome making sure she couldn't move and he didn't hurt her at the same time. Gakuto thought it was finally over until Kagome exploded into a puff of some.
"Ugh! Not again!" Gakuto complained like a small child.
He felt a presence behind him but before he can turn around he felt an arrow placed behind his head, making him uncomfortable that he can be easily beaten by a miko.
"So you gonna let me go and help you or not?" He heard her voice behind him.
"Damn…" Gakuto thought giving in.
"Alright but you have to promise me not to get hurt and stay, always, by my side." Gakuto said and thought at the same time.
Kagome hopped on one foot and jumped up and down rejoicing in being allowed to help her friends. Gakuto smiled at her.
"She is… amazing…" Gakuto thought.
Inside the Minamoto castle…
"Sasuke what do you say we look around this place?" Naruto said looking around the amazing castle.
Sasuke just shrugged and walked with Naruto up a staircase. (A/N: If you seen Scarface the stairs look like that.) The stairs were under a golden carpet with silver designs in it. The designs were of animals and humans living together. The corners of the carpet had 4 big animals on them.
The animals were a tiger, snake, wolf, and a raven. The animals must be something like gods the two ninjas thought.
"Sasuke look at that!" Naruto yelled.
Sasuke looked at were he was pointing at. There were 4 big doors in front of them. Each door had one of the animals that were on the carpet. One door was obsidian black with crimson trim. Another was white with light blue trim. The next was a green door with golden trim, and the last was a gray with silver trim.
The doors reached the roof and were wide enough to fit 30 people! The ninjas stared at the doors with awe. Naruto walked up to the green and golden door. Sasuke just stared at his ninja partner.
"What the hell…" Naruto said as he touched the door and the door started glowing.
"Move dobe!" Sasuke warned pulling Naruto back from his neck jacket.
A wall came down in front of the doors and 4 shadows appeared.
One shadow came forward and revealed a huge golden tiger with green stripes. (Ghetto but I didn't have much to go on.)
The other animals came up and revealed a snake that was completely white with light blue eyes, a raven with gray feathers and silver eyes, and finally, the biggest of them all was of coarse the tiger, but the second biggest was the ever approaching jet black wolf with crimson eyes.
"Teme…wh…what do we do?!" Naruto backed up almost falling down the stairs. Sasuke just stood in front of the animals and threw a kunai at the wolf.
The kunai went straight through the animal and hit the door behind it making a loud clanging sound.
"What the hell? My kunai had no effect!? What if it's a…" Sasuke thought as the wolf pounced and bit into Sasuke's shirt and tearing off a piece of the cloth.
"Naruto these things…Their Guardians!" Sasuke explained dodging a claw from the tiger who also tried to rip Sasuke apart.
"What the hell are Guardians?!" Naruto exclaimed dodging the raven's talons that could easily tear of your head because the talons were the size of a small car! He didn't see the snake slithering closely to his legs.
"Sasuke…Aghh!" Naruto yelled.
Sasuke looked at his friend and saw that the snake was wrapping itself around his legs and reaching his head in a matter of seconds.
With Serikuna…
Serikuna was showing the villagers were to go when ANBU appeared and started helping her move the villagers go faster to the village.
"Thanks." Serikuna said behind her snake mask to the leader ANBU.
"Don't mention it." The ANBU said looking at the hidden beauty behind the mask.
"I got a question for you." The ANBU said picking one of the villagers up when he tripped and showed him where to go in the dark forest.
"What is it?" Serikuna asked also leading a villager to the castle in the forest.
"What are you and why do you wear a mask like us?" He asked going into a sprint.
"You said one question…" She joked.
The ANBU just stared at her and was about to retort when Serikuna answered the questions.
"First I'm a mystic, a being of high power 2nd to gods and second I wear a mask for…" Serikuna looked for the right word.
"Protection." She finished.
"Protection? Why do you need protection if you are so powerful?" The ANBU asked.
"Not that kind of protection." Serikuna pointed out.
"So what kind of protection?" The ANBU asked.
"Pervert protection." Serikuna said.
"Are you that beautiful?" The ANBU asked.
"Why do you like to interrogate me?" Serikuna said moving faster then the ANBU.
The ANBU caught up and reached her with a little effort.
Serikuna was about to go faster but thought against it.
"Sorry. I didn't mean to interrogate you. I was just…Curious." The ANBU halved laughed at his comment.
"Curiosity killed the cat." She grinned behind her mask when the ANBU started slowing down and getting nervous.
"I guess since his mask is of a cat he should be scared." Serikuna giggled in her head.
With Kakashi, Karakuto, and some elite ANBU…
"So Kakashi how many of these people do you think we have to fight?" one of the ANBU asked, clearly a man since his voice was husky.
"Hmm… If it's as bad as I think it's probably all of them." Kakashi answered looking at their "leader".
Karakuto was ahead of the group which was a 4 man group and an ANBU that was clearly a female making the group number being 6. There were 5 people heading to stop an elite group of missing nin that could easily over power all of them, but at least they had their leader with them.
From what they heard, well the only thing they've heard was that he was a mystic here to help the village. They never found out what their true objective was.
Karakuto jumped of another ledge heading towards the village center when he looked to his left and stopped. Everyone else stopped but the female ANBU and Kakashi, which were right behind Karakuto.
They slammed into Karakuto ANBU first, Kakashi second, but he didn't even budge or flitch. The mystic looked behind him and picked them up with ease.
Karakuto then turned his gaze back to where he was looking.
"What's up?" Kakashi said rubbing the back of his head and looking at what Karakuto was looking at.
Before Karakuto could answer he took of his giant green and gold sword from his back and blocked a fast moving kunai heading for the group. The kunai exploded but did not harm anyone in the group because of the swords size.
"Everyone get ready to fight like hell." Karakuto warned jumping to where the kunai was thrown.
Karakuto hit something and 5 minutes later he came out with a small person wearing an orange, swirl-patterned mask that revealed only his right eye.
"That was easy." An ANBU said letting his guard down for a second.
A very serious Karakuto with a knocked out Tobi then appeared right next to the ANBU and placed his sword at his neck.
"Karakuto what are you doing?!" Kakashi yelled taking out his kunai. The ANBU also took out their weapons and were about to throw them when Karakuto interrupted.
"This is not who you think it is Kakashi…Isn't that right Tobi?" Karakuto said.
The ANBU laughed a childish laugh and transformed to his real form.
"Yup!" Tobi said.
Back with Gakuto and Kagome…
"Hey what's that noise?" Kagome asked Gakuto as they moved toward the village.
Gakuto listened closely and heard 2 different things one was the two ninja at the castle screaming their heads off because of the harmless guardians and a pulsing hum coming from his pocket. He eliminated the idea that Kagome can hear the two ninja from here so he reached into his cloak and pulled out a small jeweled dragon. The dragon was beautiful. It had two handles the shape of a dragons head. The entire small box had decorations and writing in a language that no one could understand.
"What is that?" Kagome asked looking at the pulsing beautiful box with awe.
"This, Kagome, is the Tama no chiisai ryuu or little jeweled dragon." Gakuto explained holding the box up so Kagome could see it more clearly.
Kagome tried to pick it up but Gakuto pulled it away getting a confused look from Kagome.
"What is wrong?" Kagome asked backing away.
"Nothing, it's only that if you pick up this box, the first thing that comes to mind will come true." Gakuto said holding the box closer to him.
"So why can you hold it?" Kagome asked getting curious.
"I'm not human. I don't need human needs." Gakuto simply explained.
Kagome was going to complain when two men in Akatsuki coats showed up. The two men looked at Kagome, then the box, and then the mystic holding the box even though he looked like an ANBU and Kagome just looked like a civilian.
"What do we do these ones?" one of them asked.
The other one just kept staring at the group and then shrugged.
"Kill them." He said.
Hehe. I know this took a long time and the battle with Kagome and Gakuto weren't epic but I don't hit girls okay. Anyways please review.
