-Fayre-

"Fay, are you sure you're up for this?"

Temari asked and I looked at her before nodding.

"I'm positive. I'm going to kill that bastard."

I said and she nodded before falling silent as we reached the gate. I knew exactly where Pein and the other remaining Akatsuki members were. They had actually gone to the cave where I'd killed Orochimaru and the others. I looked at all the people that were coming with. Kankuro was standing behind Kiyomi with his arms wrapped around her waist. Temari was standing next to Shikamaru, but their hands were laced together. Naruto stood next to Sakura with Hinata in between both of them. And somehow, Kiba got dragged into this as well, but I wasn't complaining. As long as I was able to get a clear shot at Pein I didn't care. I knew the others could handle themselves.

"You guys ready?"

I asked, but I was looking straight at Gaara. He was leaning against the gate with his gourd on his back and his arms crossed over his chest. I could clearly tell he didn't like this plan one bit, but he was willing to bite his tongue so that I could do this. He knew I had to do this and I was going to, with or without him.

"Kiba, Hinata, lead the way."

I said and Akamaru barked when Kiba said 'right' and Hinata nodded before activating her Byakkugan and both led the way out of the city. I followed everyone, but I stayed in the back with Gaara. I laced my hand with his and he turned to look at me as we headed for the cave.

"It's alright Gaara. I promise, I won't leave you this time."

I said, but he didn't say anything. Though I did feel him slightly squeeze my hand.

It took us less time than I'd expected to reach the cave and there were barely any trees to hide in, but there were plenty of sand dunes. We all laid on our stomachs and watched as they switched the guards. I recognized Deydara take Tobi's place. I turned to look at everyone.

"Alright. Itachi is pretty strong, so Naruto, Sakura, and Hinata, you guys think you can handle him?"

I asked and they all nodded.

"Temari, you and Shikamaru should be able to handle Tobi, but be careful. He may seem childish, but he's strong."

I said and they both nodded though Shikamaru started to say this whole thing was nothing but a drag.

"Kankuro, Kiyomi, Deydara's all yours."

I said and saw Kiyomi smirk at me. She had a personal score to settle with him since he was one of the ones that attacked her.

"Gaara, I trust you to handle anyone who gets in my way."

I said and he nodded. If anyone could make sure I got to Pein it was him.

"Kiba, Akamaru, help out where you can, but leave Pein to me."

I said and everyone looked at me.

"He's mine."

I said and they all nodded.

"Alright."

I said as I turned back to the cave.

"Move!"


-Kankuro-

We all jumped towards the cave when Fayre gave the order. I could feel the bloodlust coming from Gaara, but Fayre seemed to be able to hide hers a little bit better. I was slightly scared of losing my sister again, but I was willing to help her get revenge on Pein and the Akatsuki. I wanted to kill them for what they did to Fayre and to Kiyomi. The others waited until Kiyomi and I had Deydara distracted before running into the cave. This was the same cave that Gaara had lost Shukaku and died in, but Fayre told me herself that she destroyed that machine, but that didn't mean I had to like being here again.

"Hahaha, come back for more girlie?"

I heard Deydara say to Kiyomi and glared at him.

"You're going to pay for what you did to me."

She said and I watched as she pulled out a kunai and charged at him. He was barely able to block her attack before I sent Crow after him. He tried to jump away from the both of us, and I smirked when his eyes widened as he realized he couldn't.

"What the-?"

He started and I flexed my fingers, pulling at the chakra strings surrounding him.

"I am a master puppet ninja, trapping you with my chakra strings was something I could have done in my sleep."

I said and his eyes widened again as Kiyomi and I both advanced on him. He tried struggling, but I just pulled tighter on the strings trapping him until his arms were pinned down at his side.

"This is going to be fun."

Kiyomi said as she spun the kunai in her hand and walked closer to Deydara.


-Gaara-

I watched as Naruto and the others branched off as soon as we entered the cave. I could sense the other Akatsuki members somewhere inside and realized just how big this cave really was. It wasn't as big as the one where we found Fayre, but it was still pretty big. I heard familiar laughter and turned to see a black haired boy a few years older than me. His eyes were blood red, much like that of someone with the Uchiha's Kekkai Genkai but I could tell he didn't have it. He was a few inches taller than me, but that didn't matter.

"Come back for more pain I see."

He said with a smirk and I growled at him before having my sand come out of my gourd.

"Hahaha, you may have found a way to bring your little bitch back last time, but Pein's going to make sure you can't do that again."

He said as he drew his sword and I waited for his first move.

"This is going to be too easy."

He said before charging at me. My sand blocked his attack and he had to jump back to avoid being caught by it.

"You're pretty cocky. Who are you?"

I asked and he smirked at me.

"I guess I can tell you my name, since you won't live much longer."

He said and I resisted the urge to roll my eyes. Now was not the time.

"My name is Vincent."

He said with a smirk still plastered on his face.

"Well, Vincent, you picked the wrong day to fight me."

I said before wrapping my sand around his feet to hold him in place before charging at him.


-Fayre-

I could feel Pein's chakra from somewhere in the cave, but I couldn't find him. I looked around and saw Naruto, Hinata, and Sakura fighting against Itachi. I could heard Kankuro and Kiyomi outside fighting Deydara. Temari, Shikamaru, and Kiba were fighting against Tobi who seemed to always manage to stay out of Shikamaru's range and avoid Temari's attacks, but I smirked when Kiba and Akamaru got him with their claws and Fang over Fang jutsu.

'Where the fuck is that bastard? There's not really many places he could be hiding.'

I thought as I continued to look around. I suddenly heard the sound of metal flying through the air behind me and blocked the shuriken that were thrown at me and turned to see they had been thrown by the black haired boy Gaara was fighting.

"Not your smartest move boy."

I said before using my sand to throw them back at him with greater speed. He tried to dodge them, but Gaara's sand held him in place and they sank into the boy's shoulders and stomach.

'Fine, since Pein wants to hide I'll just fight this guy.'

I thought before charging at the boy. He managed to get free of Gaara's sand, but wasn't able to move fast enough to dodge my fist. He growled as he stood back up and drew a second sword. I smirked at him before looking at Gaara. He nodded and we both charged at the boy. Me from the left, Gaara from the right. He blocked both of us and just as I was about to move in and hit him again, he spun and slashed Gaara's left arm making him stumble back some. The boy used that to his advantage and started to advance on him, but I ran infront of Gaara and stopped the boy's blade with my forearm.

"Don't even think about it."

I said as I pushed him back, ignoring as the blade of his sword cut deeper into my skin. He stumbled, but glared at me and Gaara before charging at us. I moved to attack, but Gaara beat me to it. I watched as Gaara fought. He dodged the majority of the boy's attacks, but still got nicked by his two swords.

'I don't want to lose him in this fight and if I am to die while fighting Pein I want to go being his completely.'

I thought as I watched Gaara's sand shield block one of the swords while the other got through and cut his side. The boy was fast, faster than Lee and Gaara's sand was having a hard time keeping up. Gaara went to hit the boy, but he side stepped him and managed to get behind him and was about to slash his back when I charged at the black haired boy and wrapped my arms around him, pinning his hands to his sides. Gaara turned and stared at me in shock as I restrained the boy.

"Fayre…"

He said and I smiled at him as I struggled to keep the kid's arms pinned down. He was quite the wiggle worm.


-Gaara-

I turned around and was shocked to see Fayre pinning Vincent's arms down with her own. She smiled at me and I realized that if I were to lose her again without having made her mine completely I'd regret it. I wasn't naïve enough to think nothing would happen in this fight. Vincent slammed his head back into Fayre's and she let him go.

"Fayre!"

I cried and ran to her, but got stopped by Vincent who smirked at me.

"You should worry about yourself."

He said as he charged at me with his swords. I dodged him and used my sand to grab one of them out of his hand and kicked him in the back so he stumbled forward. I turned to Fayre to make sure she was okay. She was bleeding from her forehead, but other than that she was fine.

"Fayre….marry me?"

I said and she suddenly looked up at me in shock.

"W-What?"

She asked and I growled when Vincent decided to charge at us. I blocked his sword with the one in my hand and used my sand to throw him across the cave.

"You heard me."

I said and noticed she blushed but was looking at me like I was insane. Hell, I probably was.

"I don't think now's the best time."

She said as Vincent charged at us again, but before I could react her sand wrapped around his waist and threw him over my head.

"Now may be the only time. If I'm going to lose you again-"

"You're not."

She interrupted but I shook my head at her.

"Yes, but if I do, I want to have you mine for all of eternity."

I said and she smiled at me.

"I already am, but okay."

She said and I blinked in surprise.

"What?"

I asked shocked.

"Yes you idiot."

She said with a smile and I couldn't help but smile back at her. Her eyes suddenly widened as she stared over my shoulder.

"Duck!"

She shouted and I did so on instinct. I turned so I could see what was happening and saw her punch Vincent in his nose and he stumbled back with a hand to his face. I stood back up and she suddenly turned to look over her shoulder.

"Naruto!"

She called out and I looked at her confused. Why was she calling his name?

"What!"

He called back while he continued to fight Itachi with Hinata and Sakura.

"Marry us!"

She yelled and everyone stopped for a minute and stared at us in shock before going back to their fights.

"What!"

He called out in shock as he turned to look at us like we were insane.

"You're the only one who can, please!"

She called and I realized what she meant. Naruto had become Hokage, and even though I was the Kazekage of Suna I couldn't very well marry myself off.

"Fine!"

He yelled as he dodged a shuriken from Itachi.

"Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today….um….what comes after that?"

He asked as he blocked Itachi from attacking Hinata.

'I forgot, Naruto's an idiot.'

I thought as I turned to look at Fayre.

"Do you, Fayre take me to be your lawfully wedded husband? To love and to cherish, though sickness and health, until the day you die?"

I asked and we both jumped away from each other as Vincent charged at us, making him stumble and lose his balance.

"I do."

She said as I ran over to her.

"Do you, Gaara no Sabaku take me to be your lawfully wedded wife? To love and to cherish, through sickness and health, until the day you die?"

She asked with a smile and I couldn't help but return it despite the situation we were in.

"I do."

I said and her smile widened.

"Great."

She said and I shook my head at her.

"By the power invested in me by the late Lady Tsunade as the sixth Hokage of Konoha…."

Naruto said as he dodged another attack from Itachi.

"I now pronounce-"

He said, but got cut off as Sakura was knocked back and he had to catch her. Fayre ducked as Vincent tried to hit her and I stabbed him in the shoulder with a kunai making him jump back.

"I now pronounce you-"

Naruto tried again only to have to stop and jump away from Itachi with Hinata in his arms.

"Aw fuck, just kiss her already!"

He cried out and I smiled at him before wrapping my arms around Fayre's waist and pulling her to me as I kissed her for the first time as husband and wife.

"Aww, isn't that sweet?"

Fayre and I pulled apart at the sound of Pein's voice. We turned to see him standing on a rock a few feet away from us and the others fighting.

"Now it'll hurt twice as much when I kill you."

He said, smiling at Fayre who growled at him. I moved to take a step forward, but was suddenly knocked forward. I turned to see Vincent had tackled me to the ground. I growled at him and used my sand to wrap around him as I grabbed one of the kunai in his stomach and pulled it out. He cried out and I punched him in the side of his face making him get off me. I got to my feet and looked up to see Fayre and Pein already engaged in a fight.

"You should pay more attention to your enemies."

Vincent said from beside me and I turned just in time for him to stab me in the leg with a kunai. I clenched my teeth together and growled at him as I wrapped my sand around his waist and threw him against the cave wall. He gasped on impact, but I used my sand to keep him pinned to the wall so he couldn't move.

"And you should learn when to quit."

I said as I moved towards him. Fayre could handle herself, she just had to.
