Ok so I received enough reviews for a second chapter…barely haha but at least it was all positive or at the very least constructive I do apologize for misspelling Sasuke and would like to thank guest number three and Mac2 for pointing that out. And special thanks to Ayrmed even though it was a simple statement it made me want to actually continue this from a one shot. And for guest number 2 I hope I didn't disappoint you haha =P . ok so I actually have an idea to continue this into a full fic but not sure if I want to since this is a good stopping point and I hate writing more than one story at one time. But if I get say ten reviews and five favs or so in a week, I'll continue into a full fic. But be warned this is a tragedy and I Will be killing more people off than just Sasuke. Well it's up to all of you to decide. Thank you for your time.
Rock Lee cart wheeled from his crouch to the left as Jugo crashed down, fist destroying the ground where he had been. 'obviously this fighter has much greater power than my own, and his speed is quiet impressive as well. However, I do believe I have the advantage in maneuver ability so if I can just wear him down over time I should be able to beat him.' Lee thought to himself as he ducked under another haymaker swung blindly by an enraged Jugo.
Rock Lee landed a dozen punches to Jugo's torso in a seconds time before back flipping out of range of his back swing. 'although it may take awhile to wear this opponent down as he seems to be able to absorb large amounts of damage on top of his offensive capabilities. If I am going to do any damage to this opponent I will have use the gate's'.
thinking all of this through in a matter of seconds caused Lee to miss seeing Jugo's uppercut landing right in his stomach lifting him off the ground and digging all the way to his liver causing Lee to begin coughing up blood as he was dropped to his knees his head spinning, cursing himself for over thinking the fight and letting his guard down. Jugo was on him in a second dropping fists on him pummeling Lee hard enough to break the ground under him.
"Enough" Lee said as he unlocked the second gate, the gate of Healing. Lifting his hand and grabbing a hold of Jugo's fist in mid swing. Lee released the third and fourth gates of life and pain as he jumped from where he lay on the ground and flickered behind Jugo landing two dozen punches in the same amount of time it took his first barrage, each one leaving a crater on Jugo's body as he dropped low and kicked straight up at full force.
Using dancing leaf shadow he appeared behind the man and flipped their positions landing his heel directly on Jugo's xiphoid process shooting him straight into the ground. as the dust settled Lee could see Jugo in a half crouch, his eye's seemingly glowing yellow through the cloud, his half transformation changing appearances again as his arm swelled gaining several large hollow tubes at the end of them Jugo cackling like a maniac the entire time. Lee assessed the situation again deciding he would have to try it for any chance of success.
Taking off his vest and hand wraps Lee powered up to the sixth gate of view. The two stared at each other for a full ten seconds before stepping off at the same time running full tilt. Their fists hit creating a shockwave flattening every tree for a quarter mile with them at the epicenter, and when everything was silent for several minutes later only one of them was standing.
Karin and Suigetsu had been chasing whoever was in front of them for nearly ten minutes at full speed before finally managing to cut them off in a ravine between the two mountains, finding Naruto and Sakura waiting for them standing in the open as if they had lured their prey instead of being herded into a corner.
Suigetsu skeptically took a step forward grabbing his sword off of his back, reflecting sadly on how light it was right now being cut in half by that fucking eight tailed jinchuriki. He would need quite a bit of blood to reform the entire sword but with the way Sasuke was headed mentally it didn't seem long before he was allowed to cut loose and reform it fully.
"um Suigetsu I assume you will be able to handle both of them right?" Karin asked standing behind the last tree before the opening. "che, chickening out already Karin?" he said as he stepped forward slightly wary of any traps that may have been laid in expectation of them. "wh-what of course not, but we both know I'm not a combat type and I would just get in your way right?"
Suigetsu shrugged lightly never taking his eyes off the two figures just standing there staring at them waiting. "you sense anyone else around here Karin?" "no not within a mile radius, though I do feel Jugo's fight just ended but can't feel who won from here." She whispered as she slinked back to the next tree in the forest. "well I guess we will find out soon enough." Suigetsu rushed forward intent on taking both on at once.
Sasuke barley managed to call Susanoo's skeletal arms to protect him as Sakura's fist and naruto's rasengan made contact separately. Sakura completely shattering Susanoo's left arm and Naruto creating spider web fracture lines across his right. The force of the blows knocking Sasuke through the wall and earth behind him until finally breaking out of the mountain side and into the forest, before all three disengaged.
Sasuke immediately repaired the damage done to Susanoo in a flash and fully completing him, while Naruto made a clone to go take care of Hinata. Pulling back his bow Susanoo took aim and fired, drilling a bolt straight into the ground where Naruto had been mere seconds before. Sasuke quickly dashed back as Naruto fell from the sky with a giant rasengan in hand blowing a crater into the mountain causing part of it to collapse on the ruins of the old hide out.
Sakura rushed in hands held low and to the left clasped in a hammer fist pumping chakra into the plates along her knuckles she raised her hands over her head as she jumped and hit Susanoo directly in the head breaking it all the way down as she fell with it to the ground her hands barley scrapping Sasuke while he jumped backs delighted smile spread from ear to ear. Suddenly his vision fogged and Susanoo dropped for a second. Naruto bolted into range immediately switching to frog kumite as to keep Sasuke from reforming his defenses.
Sasuke barely managed to dodge several chakra enhanced blows any one of which could put him out of commission as he sought a chance to counter attack. "So would you two believe me if I said I was sorry and wanted to return to the leaf village now?" Sasuke said in an attempt to distract them, but was met with a fist nearly skimming his jaw, the force of the near blow knocking him off his feet for a second. He saw the opening as Naruto finished his combo but as he landed and stepped in to end it Sakura appeared out of nowhere to catch his hand in mid air, twisting it she brought him to his knees, yet he was still smiling.
"Well this has been fun so far but I feel I need to wrap this up soon, so if you'll excuse me" he replied as he closed and re-opened his right eye shooting black flames as it went. Sakura's left boot caught on fire as she jumped out of his line of sight. Quickly kicking off both of her boots Sakura and Naruto reformed. Naruto put his right shoulder into her left one while Sakura bent at the waist as he rolled across her back hooking his arm through Sakura's landing on his feel he pulled, snapping Sakura around and releasing her to slingshot towered Sasuke before he could bring Susanoo back.
Keeping Sasuke distracted with blows strong enough to change the landscape noticeably, to no avail as he dodged the three shadow clones who had attempted to ambush him while the real one came through the loose broken soil that Sakura had caused with her attacks. Sasuke flipped his sword out and caught Naruto in the chest all the way up to his chin leaving a huge open wound on him as he put distance in between them yet again dropping the insane over confidant smile for a smug grin
"your too repetitive Naruto, you've been using that same combo for nearly four years now. Three clones attack while the real one comes from the bottom, it won't work on me and we both know it." Naruto just stared at him deadpan eyes not showing the slightest hint of emotion anymore other than a icy rage freezing his heart to do what had to be done. Crossing his fingers he summoned another army of shadow clones. Sasuke laughed as he pulled off his forearm protectors showing a summons matrix on the inside of each arm.
Over the course of a single minute thousands of kunai were thrown by both sides not one hitting Sasuke while he destroying every last shadow clone. But it had all been a distraction, Sasuke saw the scroll had been retrieved by another clone dispersing both, Naruto replenished sage chakra. Sakura and himself squaring up for a final charge. Susanoo was reformed in the blink of an eye as Sasuke dug in. Naruto lead the charge with Sakura a picoseconds behind him weaving in and out between each other closing the gap fast, Sasuke threw his sword straight towered them hitting Naruto across the shoulder gashing him along the trapezoid muscle as he locked with Sasuke's smiling eye's and found himself pulled into a Tsukuyomi genjutsu.
He and Sasuke just stood there staring at each other. There was nothing left to say between them Sasuke had finally destroyed their friendship and there was no going back, this was it. Surprising them both a raven forced its way from naruto's mouth and perched on his shoulder as he struggled to recovered. As soon as it made contact with Sasuke the genjutsu broke and Naruto found himself right behind Sakura, not noticing the blood dripping behind her to him as she was planting herself and thrust forward.
driving her fist forward with her right leg, every last ounce of chakra was gathered into her right knuckle plates and she hit susanoo with enough force to level every tree in a full mile radius putting anything Tsunade had done so far to shame, shattering the entire torso of Sasuke's susanoo. Naruto never hesitating for a second planted his foot on Sakura's back and leapt through the remains, a miniature raisen-shurakin in his hand. Sasuke stood there with chidori in hand bringing it to bare on Naruto when he froze wide eyed long enough for Naruto to push straight through the chidori shattering Sasuke's arm all the way up and plant the attack right into Sasuke's heart disconnecting the chakra threads from it and causing it to collapse.
Sakura and Naruto jumping back as it imploded into his chest cavity, they slowly approached as Sasuke sank to his knees still wide eyed and frozen his last words a whisper "what have I done" as he rolled to the side his light faded from his eyes as he stared at Sakura's horror filled emerald eyes and finally to naruto's stone cold blue's as his sight faded, and with that he himself faded to nothing. Sasuke was dead.
"Dammit" Suigetsu said mostly to himself as he jumped at the pink haired woman again while she dodged out of the way "I've been attacking them non-stop for five minutes straight now, something is wrong here. All they do is dodge, it's like they're just trying to (poof, the two of them disappeared in puffs of smoke)...shit that's what this is, their stalling us" he said louder so Karin could hear him. "What the fuck Suigetsu, you couldn't beat two shadow clones?" Karin said as she bravely stormed out from behind the tree she had been currently using to hide.
"Seriously Karin, your dumbass couldn't sense the difference between shadow clones and the real one's?" Karin blushed as she yelled back, "they both had high level chakra, how was I supposed to tell." Suigetsu slammed his palm into his face and spoke as he dragged it down his face, "the blond one is the jinchuriki of the nine tails therefore his chakra should be ten times hers if they were equal then that should have warned you right there."
Karin went from a blush to full nuclear meltdown red as she tried to stammer back a response and failing miserably until she shot up straight "if they aren't here and only two people just fought to the west then that means those two went to where Sasuke is." Karin said turning from red to pale as she began panicking.
"Don't worry" Suigetsu said crouching down and taking a drink from his bottle "Sasuke is strong enough that anyone who fights him is going to change the landscape real fas...(boom) both of them heard the noise in the distance and saw several pullers of smoke raising as they felt the mountain underneath them shake enough to feel like it would collapse. "Well as I was saying" Suigetsu said standing up and retrieving the executioner blade.
But Karin was looking the opposite way of the fight and so Suigetsu waited as well already guessing it was the winner of the one on one Jugo had been in earlier. Walking out of the woods silent as a ghost came Jugo, calm and collected with a leaf ninja in a green jumpsuit and black hair across his shoulder. "What's with the freaky carry on Jugo?" Suigetsu said laughing at the sight. "I thought our secondary mission was to leave Naruto a message if we couldn't fight him here and now, so I brought this one back alive just in case". Jugo said in a quiet voice.
"Well the fight has already started and were going to miss it because of you two", Karin yelled as she pointed towered the pillars of dirt raising up as more booms and shaking followed "now let go, Sasuke might need our help" Karin said and took off, for once leading the group. They arrived to find Sakura bending over checking Sasuke's body making sure it wasn't genjutsu or some form of trickery.
The first thing they noticed was her left eye and slashed hair which was a mass of clotted blood a slash mark running horizontally from the bridge of her nose to her temple slashing right through where her eye used to be. Finding nothing she stood up and looked over to the frozen trio standing in shock. Naruto released his final sage clone and turned to confront them, "He is gone, and unless you give me a good reason not to kill you then I'd start begging if I were you".
The trio all blanched as the killing intent rolled off him in a massive wave combining with the number of scars on both of them proving it was them who defeated Sasuke made them second guess starting something. Suigetsu was the first to recover enough to speak up as Naruto took a step forward. "Wait wait, we have your friend in the green jump suit here and he is still alive, we give him to you and you let us take Sasuke's body and go, sounds fair right?"
Naruto just stared at them for a good minute, Sakura stayed beside Sasuke's body protectively. Finally Naruto sighed and stated "put lee down and leave before I change my mind" Jugo gently sat lee against a tree nearby as Suigetsu stepped forward towered Sasuke but froze as Naruto stepped in his way. "Wait we had a deal" Suigetsu said as he places his hand on his sword.
"No, I said put lee down and leave, I never promised Sasuke to you and I'd rather take the chance of killing you three before handing him over." Suigetsu and Karin exchanged glances before shrugging and backing up. All three disappearing in a second. Naruto created a two clones to carry Sasuke's body on a stretcher while he picked up lee himself and they started back to the village. His first clone already halfway there with Hinata, it had been a long day with everyone receiving grievous wounds, Sakura's being localized but the worst next to Hinata's, but at least it was finally over Naruto thought grimly.
How I plan on continuing was to have Hinata and Naruto help each other through there trials and struggles during the great shinobi war and develop a closer bond with each other...if I even continue the story that is. Any ideas would be great and highly considered. Leave them in reviews or pm.
