Sabaku no Kitsune: Chapter 22
Snow Country: With Naruto and Temari
Naruto was standing next to Temari staring down the first 2 of a very long line of people he never wanted to see again; Asuka was gripping her twin hook swords and looking at Naruto with a face full of rage and hatred while Akeno was clutching her bow in her left hand and had several arrows in the other.
Asuka looked different than the last time Naruto saw her as she was now wearing a simple black muscle shirt showing off her arms which were wrapped in bandages; she also had on a blue combat pants, 2 pouches on her hips and a scratched Yuga headband on her forehead keeping her neck length brown hair from getting in front of her eyes. Meanwhile Akeno was wearing her old Yuga ANBU uniform which still fit her despite not being a ninja for such a long time.
Naruto felt his heart begin to race as he looked at the 2 women "h-how did you find me" Naruto asked nervously.
"We were watching the Chunin exams in Kiri on TV when we were in Kumo" Asuka said with a scowl "while we didn't see your face, we recognized that red head and that black haired girl you were with" she said. "We put 2 and 2 together and we made our way to Kiri and asked around" Asuka said "found out the Suna team was going to Spring country so we came here to see if we were right" she said.
"And we were" Akeno said "we were coming here to kill you when these 3 tried to stopus" she said pointing to the 3 dead root ninjas on the ground. "Emphasis on 'tried'" Akeno said "as you can see the results for yourself" she said.
Temari hearing all this decided to speak up "you don't have to do this; just walk away" she said trying to avoid conflict.
"No dice blondie" Asuka said "my purpose in life is to kill this prick and that's what I'm going to do" she said as she looked at Naruto. "You got away from me once; you won't do it again" Asuka said.
"Fine you want me" Naruto shouted as he brought out his gauntlet blade and took out a kunai"come and get me" he said; Asuka smiled and charged at Naruto. Temari grabbed her fan and was getting ready to assist Naruto but had to duck as an arrow flew over her head.
"Your fight is with me" Akeno said as she began to run while firing her bow at the same time at Temari; Temari opened her fan and brought it back. Temari swung her fan launching a wind jutsu at Akeno who went through hand signs 'Earth Style: mud wall'; Akeno slammed her hands onto the ground and created a mud wall which protected her from the jutsu. When it died down Akeno ran out and loaded an arrow onto her bow and fired it at Temari.
Temari dodged to the side to avoid the arrow which narrowly hit her leaving a tear in her shirt; Temari jumped back and began to counter 'damn it; this isn't good' she thought 'where the hell is everybody' she thought.
With Obito and Kurumi
Kurumi ran in with her sword and attempted to slice Itachi in half; however, Itachi brought out his own sword and blocked it with a resounding clang. Itachi twisted his blade bringing Kurumi with it and kicked her in the face making her spit up blood; Itachi was going to follow up but had to dodge a stab from Obito who appeared from behind using his vortex.
Itachi jumped back and went through hand signs 'Fire Style: Fireball jutsu' Itachi launched a large fire ball at Kurumi and Obito and Kurumi seeing this went through hand signs herself.
'Fire Style: Fireball jutsu' Kurumi launched a smaller fireball at Itachi's; both fireballs collided and Itachi's won out as it continued towards her. Obito grabbed her and dragged her behind him; Obito used his kamui to suck up he fire ball and send it to his pocket dimension.
When Obito was done he took off his mask and tossed it aside 'this is getting in the way' he thought; Obito reached behind him and pulled out a scroll 'never thought I'd ever need to use this' he thought as he opened it. A puff of smoke appeared and a Gunbai fan with a chain from the handle which wrapped around Obito's arm.
Itachi seeing this narrowed his eyes 'That is Madara Uchiha's Gunbai; how did he get his hands on such a sacred Uchiha relic' he thought.
"Pa, you had a fan" Kurumi said and Obito nodded.
"Uh… yeah I got it from an old man I knew from a long time ago" Obito said not getting into specifics.
Kurumi went over it in her head 'Temari, Naruto and now my pa have fans' she thought 'damn now I kinda want one' she thought.
"That won't help you Obito" Itachi said as he closed his eye 'Susanoo' Itachi proceeded to summon out his Susanoo and looked at 2 of the 3 remaining Uchiha's left in the world "now then let me show you how futile it is to resist the inevitable" he said. Itachi brought back his Susanoo's arm and swung it at Obito and Kurumi.
Kurumi ran back and jumped over the arm while Obito used his Kamui to phase through Obito's arm; however, Obito was surprised when he was sent sailing when Itachi's arm connected him. Obito corrected himself and landed a few yards away.
'I'm glad my right side isn't real flesh' Obito thought as his right ribs began to reform due to his implanted cells from Hashirama.
"Pa, are you ok" Kurumi asked and Obito nodded.
"Yeah, I'm fine" Obito said "looks like my Kamui won't work against a Susanoo… ain't this a bitch" Obito said whispering the last part to himself.
With Naruto
Naruto moved his fight away from Temari and Akeno in order to not get in Temari's way or give Asuka any back up; bot Naruto and Asuka were in a grassy field with no cover which gave neither side and advantage.
Naruto ducked back an Asuka swung one of her twin hook swords at Naruto missing his neck by a few inches; Naruto went in and slashed at her with his gauntlet blade. Asuka dodged to the side and blocked with the crescent hand guard of her sword; however, Naruto threw the kunai in his other hand at Asuka's head.
Asuka moved her head to the side as the blade cut her cheek and cut a few strands of her brunette hair off; Naruto then kicked her in the chest sending her a flying. Asuka however corrected herself and landed and charged at Naruto again; Asuka hooked both ends of her twin hooks together doubling the length.
Asuka swung the swords at Naruto who was caught off guard; the blade at the bottom of the sword sliced Naruto on the stomach before swinging back around and Asuka grabbing it disconnecting both swords and now holding one in each hand again.
Naruto looked down at his stomach and saw a minor flesh wound; the sword cut through his jacket, his shirt and the mesh armor he wore underneath 'damn that's sharp' Naruto thought. Naruto's wound began to sizzle and heal until it was gone.
"Brat this is embarrassing" Kyuubi said inside Naruto's head "you have the strongest of the 9 biju inside you; yet you are wounded by a mere child" it said while chuckling.
'Screw you fox' Naruto said 'I'm not going to use you against her; I'm finishing this myself' he thought.
"What's wrong; you giving up already" Asuka said making Naruto look at her "well good, because I want to kill you as soon as possible; and then I'll kill your girlfriend next" she said. Naruto scowled at this spoke.
"No one threatens Temari" Naruto said "you miss your daddy so much; well good, because your about to see him" Naruto said pissing Asuka off. Asuka ran at Naruto once more with her swords at her side ready to take his life; Naruto using his free hand took out one of his small fans and opened it.
Naruto brought his arm back and swung it forwards launching a wind blade at Asuka who ducked under it; Naruto cursed as he closed his fan to use it as a blunt weapon along with his gauntlet blade.
With Temari
Temari was chasing Akeno through a surrounding forest trying to not lose her in the endless rows of trees; Temari stopped and brought back her fan "Wind Scythe jutsu" Temari swung her fan and launched a powerful wind jutsu at Akeno.
Akeno slid under a log and took cover behind a tree as the wind jutsu blew past her cutting the bark on the tree and making leaves blow around like a blizzard. When it died down Akeno ran out from behind the tree and loaded her bow and pulled back the string; Akeno while moving fired a shot at Temari before taking cover behind another tree.
Temari saw the arrow coming towards her and closed her fan using the blunt side as a shield; the arrow hit the fan with a *ping* before ricocheting into a tree. 'Damn it' Temari thought as she took cover behind a tree 'she's fast and accurate; we're both long distance fighters, but my taijutsu is nothing to scoff at' she thought. 'I have an idea; it just might work' Temari thought as she reached into her pouch and took out several smoke bombs.
Akeno was hidden among the vegetation scanning around for Temari 'where are you at blondie' she thought as she scanned around; as she did, she saw movement and saw a round object flying out. Akeno let fly and released her arrow; the arrow flew and hit the object making it burst into smoke 'a smoke bomb' she thought.
Temari ran out from behind her cover and opened her fan and swung it; Temari made a more concentrated wall of wind and sent it in the general direction where the arrow came from.
'Oh shit' Akeno thought as she got up and tried to run only to be hit by the wind jutsu and sent flying into a tree several yards away; Akeno hit the tree and fell to the ground coughing as her breath got knocked out of her. As Akeno caught her breath, she looked up to see Temari above her with her fan closed.
"Got you" Temari shouted as she brought her fan down; Akeno rolled out of the way as the fan came down and slammed into the ground cracking it "damn it" Temari shouted as she recovered and swung again at Akeno who ducked under the fan.
Akeno dropped her bow and threw a punch at Temari which connected with her jaw and made her drop her fan; Temari quickly recovered and grabbed Akeno's arm and performed a judo throw slamming her onto the ground. Temari then mounted Akeno and began to punch her repeatedly; Temari punched Akeno 5 times before Akeno caught her hand.
Akeno pulled Temari in and rolled over and was now on Temari; Akeno wrapped her hands around Temari's neck and began to choke her. Temari began to gag and struggle as she felt her air and blood supply be cut off; Temari used her right arm to hit Akeno on her elbows making them bend and making her lose her grip. Temari using her flexibility kicked Akeno in the back of the head knocking her off.
Temari got up and went over to her fan and opened it while coughing "Bitch" Temari said hoarsely as she opened her fan; Akeno seeing what Temari was doing ran and picked up her bow just as Temari launched a wind jutsu which she barely avoided "you can't run forever" Temari said as she chased after her.
With Obito and Kurumi
Kurumi was going through hand signs getting ready to launch another attack at Itachi "are you ready pa" Kurumi asked and Obito nodded.
"Do it sweetie" Obito said as he brought back his gunbai fan; Kurumi stopped on her last hand sign and took in a deep breath.
'Fire Style: Fire ball jutsu' Kurumi unleashed over powered fireball towards Itachi; Obito seeing this swung his gunbai fan using it's wind abilities to increase the power of Kurumi's fireball. The result was a massive inferno traveling towards Itachi.
'Fools' Itachi thought as he brought his Susanoo Yata mirror; the fire storm went into the mirror before Itachi redirected it back towards Obito and Kurumi.
"Oh fuck" Obito shouted as he realized his mistake; Obito used his kamui to suck the inferno into his pocket dimension. As he did so his eye began to strain even though Hashirama's cells should be constantly healing his eye; when the inferno died down Obito fell to his knee huffing 'holy crap that took a lot of chakra' Obito thought 'luckily it all went to my dimension so no one was hurt' he thought.
Meanwhile in Obito's pocket dimension
"Gaaaaah" Black Zetsu screamed as he was engulfed in fire that seemed to come out of nowhere "Obito!" he shouted before he fell to the ground dying. After nearly 16 years of being stuck in Obito's pocket dimension in complete solitude black Zetsu finally died.
Back with Obito and Kurumi
Itachi was running towards Obito and Kurumi with his Susanoo's sword ready to strike; Itachi swung his sword at Kurumi and Obito who both jumped out of the way as the sword tore up the earth and smashed the trees surrounding the road.
Kurumi decided to flank Itachi and went through hand signs 'Fire Style: Phoenix flower jutsu' Kurumi launched multiple fire balls at Itachi's Susanoo in hopes of damaging it. However, when the fire balls hit they did absolutely nothing and Itachi shifted his focus on her; Itachi slashed at Kurumi with his Susanoo's sword.
Kurumi was getting ready to dodge when suddenly a wall of ice appeared in front of her stopping the sword surprising both her and Itachi 'what' Itachi thought. Suddenly Itachi's Susanoo was hit on the back and took some slight damage; when he turned around, he saw several chakra chains returning to its owner.
"Karin, Katsu" Kurumi shouted in relief; Karin and Katsu jumped down from the tree they were in and looked at Itachi.
"You guys can't go on a walk without running into trouble" Karin said adjusting her glasses "now then who is this guy" Karin asked as she looked at Itachi.
"Who cares" Katsu said "trespassing in Spring country, attacking guests of our lady Koyuki and damaging her country side; you will not get away with this" she said.
Itachi did not say anything as he observed the 2 new enemies who arrived 'red hair and chakra chains… must be a survivor of the Uzumaki clan' Itachi though before looking at Katsu 'and if I'm not mistaken, she's Koyuki Kazehana's personal bodyguard' he thought. 'Best not use my Mangekyo anymore unless I run the risk of straining my eyes' he thought as he canceled his Susanoo.
"Karin, Katsu; be careful he's no ordinary ninja, he's Itachi Uchiha" Obito said making both girls eyes widen "he's the one who killed the entire Uchiha clan in a single night; and he was also Konoha's youngest anbu commander at only 13" he said.
"Who cares we're gonna kick his ass" Katsu said as she got into a fighting stance.
"More pests coming to die" Itachi said as he drew out his sword "fine with me" Itachi said as he charged Katsu; Katsu seeing this went through hand signs.
'Ice Style: Ice claws' Katsu created ice claws on her hands and charged at Itachi; Katsu swung her claws at Itachi who blocked with his sword. Katsu kept pressing on with her attacks making Itachi step back in order to keep from being still; as he did so Obito came up from behind in an attempt to strike Itachi with his gunbai, but Itachi dodged and attempted to slash him. However, Obito used his kamui to phase through the attack and land punch on Itachi's face; Itachi recovered and kicked Obito in the chest before he had a chance to use his ability.
As Itachi's back was turned Katsu attempted to slash him with her claws; however, Itachi jumped to the side avoiding them. Kurumi not wanting to be left out ran in with her sword at the ready and engaged Itachi; Kurumi slashed at Itachi with her sword and Itachi using his sword parried and knocked her sword to the side.
Kurumi however recovered and began to advance slashing and stabbing at Itachi who effortlessly countered and blocked her attacks; Kurumi was getting frustrated as she wasn't able to land a single hit. Kurumi went in for a stab but Itachi expected this; Itachi sidestepped and let Kurumi come towards him while bringing his sword up.
Kurumi saw the blade coming towards her face in slow motion due to her 2 Tomoe sharingan; as it came towards her face, she had a thought 'this is it' Kurumi thought.
Before Itachi's blade could slice her head off Itachi felt his arm get yanked back and he fell backwards; Itachi looked and saw a glowing chain around his wrist.
Karin used her chakra chain to stop Itachi from slicing Kurumi's head off 'can't use you eyes to see what's behind you, asshole' she thought; Itachi looked at her and activated the MS in his right eye activated 'Amaterasu'.
A violent black flame began to run up the chakra chain and back to Karin; Obito who was getting up the ground saw this and yelled "Karin cut off your chain and get away" Obito shouted. Karin hearing this cut her chain off as it fell to the ground engulfed in black flames a few inched away from her; Karin jumped back and saw that the flames were now on the ground burning the grass and spreading with no sign of stopping.
Obito got back up and looked at Itachi who was now standing once again "damn it; where the hell is Naruto and Temari when we need them" he said.
With Temari
Temari was running from cover to cover avoiding Akeno's arrows that were flying past her head; Temari was running to another tree when an arrow found its mark. One of Akeno's arrows hit Temari in her left calf making her fall onto her face and getting a mouth full of dirt; Temari looked down with gritted teeth as she saw the arrow halfway through her muscle.
"Shit" Temari said as she got back up; Temari only had to hobble a few feet to the next tree where she took cover "fuuuck" Temari groaned as she looked down at her leg. Temari snapped both ends of the arrow and took off her head band from her forehead and took off the plate and used the cloth to wrap her wound; after trying the cloth around the arrow shaft still in her leg she let out a sigh of relief.
'Ok Temari calm down and think' Temari thought to herself 'I can't run anymore and she has my position' she thought. 'What can I do to get out of this situation' Temari thought; Temari was going over every angle as she had no margin for error so she decided no holding back 'ok then… fuck it' Temari said as she stood on her one good leg.
Temari opened her fan and reached down to her wound dabbing her hand on her wound to get some blood; Temari then dragged her bloody fingers across the fan making a long red line "ok lady… lets see you get up from this" she said. Just before Temari stepped out she made a hand sign "Naruto; looks like I need to borrow your jutsu" she said.
Akeno was in a tree aiming at where Temari was waiting for her to pop out in order to shoot her; she purposely shot Temari in her unprotected legs in order to slow her down. Now with her injured it was a waiting game 'come on out girl' Akeno thought 'I have an arrow with your name on it' she thought.
Suddenly Temari ran out from behind her cover 'there' Akeno thought as she led Temari; Akeno released her bow string and let her arrow fly. Akeno looked on as the arrow went sailing towards Temari; the arrow embedded itself into Temari's temple and out the other side of her skull. Akeno smiled as she saw the blonde Suna kunoichi fall.
Her smile faded however when Temari burst into smoke making her go wide eyed 'what' she thought in a panic. Temari popped out from behind her cover with her fan cocked back.
Temari used the shadow clone jutsu to make a decoy in order for Akeno to give away her position 'Naruto, I owe you a bowl of ramen for teaching me that jutsu' she thought; Temari then swung her fan forward with a great speed "Summoning Jutsu: Quick Beheading dance" Temari shouted.
Temari swing her fan and summoned her weasel summon Kamatari; Kamatari wielding his giant Kama and using the wind from the jutsu began its attack. The wind jutsu cut down the surrounding forest creating a giant cloud of sawdust and dirt; Temari covered her eyes and once he jutsu died down she opened them and saw the devastation her jutsu created.
Miles and miles of bisected trees scattered the once beautiful land scape; Temari looked and saw red out of the ocean of green. Akeno arm was the only indicator of where she was as her entire body was crushed under the trunk of a tree; her blood splattered like a paint can bursting open with only her arm remaining showing she was once a person.
Temari let out a sigh of relief and began to slowly jog her way back to where she last saw Naruto 'hold on Naruto; I'm coming' she thought as she hobbled her way back to her boyfriend.
With Naruto
Naruto chased after Asuka as she led him along the edge of a small ravine with a roaring river underneath; Naruto took out both of his small fans and began to fire wind blades at the running girl "Stay still you little shit" Naruto shouted.
Asuka seeing the wind blades coming towards her jumped down and ran along the walls of the ravine using the 'walk on walls' technique; Asuka put both of her twin hook swords on her back and began to go through hand signs.
'Earth Style: Rock slide' Asuka stomped on the ravine wall and the wall began to shake; Naruto feeling this lost his balance as the wall of the ravine broke and crumbled. Naruto began to fall down the 100 foot or so drop down to the river down below.
Naruto quickly let go of his small fans letting them fall down to the water below and grabbed his medium sized fan; in one swift motion Naruto swung it and created a powerful gust of wind sending him flying back up to the top of the ravine.
Naruto landed in a crouch as he got his footing and looked at the edge of the ravine just as Asuka came back over going through another set of hand signs 'Water style: Water spouts' Asuka created several water spouts from the river down below and sent them towards Naruto.
Naruto cocked back his fan 'Wind Style: Wind Sickle jutsu' Naruto swung his fan creating multiple wind blades that collided with the water spouts; both jutsu collided and canceled each other out and Asuke drew both of her swords and rushed at Naruto quickly closing the distance.
Naruto seeing this closed his fan ready to use it as a melee weapon; Naruto swung the fan using its steel plated sides at Asuka who ducked before it could contact her head. Asuka swung her sword at Naruto stomach and missed when Naruto hopped back as it once again tore his jacket; Asuka pressed on and aimed another slash at Naruto's leg scoring a cut right above his knee.
Naruto yelped as blood sprayed out from his leg but gritted his teeth and swung his fan down in an axe like chop; Asuka brought both of her swords above her head to block the strike with a loud clang that shook her bones.
Asuka used the hooked ends of her swords to catch Naruto fan and with a solid yank stripped Naruto of his weapon and tossed it to the side. Naruto now having his fan stripped away brought out his gauntlet blade once again and swung it at Asuka's head who hopped back to avoid being cut; Naruto chased after Asuka pushing her closer to the edge of the ravine.
Naruto slashed at Asuka and Asuka brought up her sword in order to protect herself; Naruto's blade clanged against her handguard and Naruto kept on pushing. Naruto kicked her wrist making her lose her grip and drop her sword; Asuka not letting losing one of her swords slow her down brought up her other sword and slashed at Naruto.
Naruto was slashed across his back cutting through his muscles and cutting one of his kidneys; Naruto screamed in pain as the burning sensation rushed up his back. Naruto kicked Asuka I the chest sending her even closer to the edge of the ravine. Naruto feeling blood run down his back like a river knew he had to finish this with his next attack.
Naruto charged in with his blade at the ready and Asuka waiting for him; Asuka swung at Naruto who ducked under her sword. Naruto came up and slashed her arm cutting her triceps in half; Naruto followed up with a stab to Asuka's chest.
Asuka in a moment of desperation used her other arm to redirect Naruto arm stopping the blade from piercing her heart and instead going into her shoulder just an inch above her heart; Asuka coughed up blood as she looked into Naruto eyes.
Asuka was falling back into the ravine when she grabbed Naruto's arm and pulled him down; Asuka decided if she was going to die, she was taking him with her. With how fast the water was rushing down below anyone who fell in was going to drown as it was moving to fast to use the 'walk on water' technique.
Naruto was now dangling over the edge as Asuka tried to pull him in 'little shit' Naruto thought as he tried to pull his blade out of her shoulder but Asuka had a firm grip on his arm. Naruto then realized she wasn't grabbing his arm; she was grabbing his gauntlet "have a nice trip" Naruto said making Asuka's eyes widen.
Naruto swiftly reached with his other hand and snapped the latch securing the gauntlet on his hand; Naruto fell backwards onto the ground while Asuka fell backwards into the rushing river down below.
Naruto heard her scream and then a splash; Naruto rushed over to the edge and saw Asuka struggle to keep her head above water. After a few seconds her screams stopped as she was submerged under the fast currents and carried away with her blood leaving a red trail in the white water.
"I-I did it" Naruto said weakly; Naruto then fell to his side as he began to feel light headed.
"Kit I'm healing your wounds but you lost a lot of blood" The Kyuubi said "you need to get to a doctor or you'll die" it said and Naruto nodded.
"Naruto" came a voice; Naruto sat up his vision shaking as he saw Temari making his way towards him "Naruto; are you ok, where is the other one" Temari asked skidding to a stop beside Naruto on alert.
"I-I stabbed her and she fell into the river down below" Naruto said groggily "b-babe how's my back" he said turning over; Temari looked and nearly vomited as she saw Naruto's wound heal. She saw his kidney reform and his muscles begin to reconnect making a sizzling and squishing sound.
"It's healing; is the fox doing it" Temari asked and Naruto nodded.
"Y-yeah, but I lost a lo- "Naruto began until he passed out and Temari picked him up.
"Naruto" Temari shouted as she grabbed him "don't worry; I'll get you help" she said putting him over her shoulder. 'Lady Koyuki's castle is a few miles away' Temari thought as she stood on her injured leg 'this is going to suck' she thought as she began to run off in the direction of the castle ignoring the searing pain her leg was in.
With Kurumi, Obito, Karin and Katsu
'Ice Style: Ice spikes' Katsu slammed her hands onto the ground and ice spikes began to shoot out making their way towards Itachi; Itachi seeing this went through hand signs.
'Fire Style: Fire ball jutsu' Itachi launched a fire ball at the oncoming ice spikes; the fire ball collided stopping the jutsu but not stopping Katsu who was going through another set of hand signs.
'Ice Style: Ice sparrows' Katsu launched dozens of ice sparrows towards Itachi the began to run while going through hand signs.
'Fire Style: Phoenix- 'Itachi began until he had to dodge a chain that flew by his face; Karin was using her chakra chains to try and slow down Itachi so that Katsu's ice sparrows could hit him. However, Itachi using his sharingan and his superior skills was avoiding her attacks like they were nothing; Itachi slid under another swipe from Karin's chains avoiding them.
However, as he did so Katsu's ice sparrows closed in and Itachi got into a stance; Itachi used his sharingan and his sword to destroy the oncoming ice projectiles before they could hit him.
Kurumi seeing Itachi distracted charged in with her father towards Itachi to attack him from behind in order to take him out; Kurumi had her sword at her side ready to strike while Obito had his gunbai fan.
Itachi destroyed the last of the ice sparrows and turned around to see Obito and Kurumi; Kurumi slashed at Itachi who brought up his sword to block her blade. Obito came up and swung his fan at Itachi who backflipped over the fan; Itachi landed in a crouch and began his counter attack.
Itachi rushed in and slashed at Obito who used his gunbai to block it; Kurumi rushed in to help her father raising her sword in an attempt to kill Itachi. Itachi seeing this kicked Obito away and spun around; with a quick stab Itachi sunk his blade into Kurumi's left shoulder about 3 inches deep.
Kurumi felt the cold steel enter her shoulder and jumped back; Itachi strike was precise as Kurumi's wound began to bleed heavily. Itachi using his sharingan and his expert blade skills hit Kurumi's artery making a small but potentially mortal wound.
Kurumi dropped her sword and placed her hand on her gushing wound as her left arm "oh, oh god" Kurumi said as she began to lose feeling in her legs; Kurumi fell onto her butt as her she began to grow paler.
"Kurumi" Obito shouted "Itachi you bastard" Obito shouted as she charged Itachi swinging his gunbai; Katsu seeing Kurumi fall down ran over with Karin both skidding to either side.
"Kurumi are you ok" Karin asked.
"M-my arm; I can't feel it" Kurumi said as tears began to well up in her eyes and she began to breath heavily.
"Karin move; Kurumi move your hand" Katsu said; Kurumi moved her hand exposing her gushing wound. Katsu placed her hand over the wound and used a simple ice jutsu to freeze it "ok that should slow the bleeding, but we need to get her to a hospital now" Katsu said.
Obito and Itachi were still fighting as Obito's strikes became wilder and more forceful; Itachi began to feel his eyes burn and his vision getting worse 'I'm at my limit; I better retreat while I still can' Itachi thought. Itachi jumped back from Obito and made a hand sign.
"I'm taking my leave Obito" Itachi said as a murder of crows surrounded him "until we meet again" he said as he disappeared.
"Hey get back here" Obito shouted.
"Daddy" Kurumi shouted; Obito immediately lost his anger, now replaced by worry as he turned around and saw Kurumi still on the ground.
Obito ran over and slid next to his daughter "Kurumi, baby; I'm here" Obito said trying to calm his daughter; Kurumi smiled until her eyes began to roll to the back of her head "Kurumi? Kurumi!" Obito shouted as he grabbed her.
"She passed out" Karin said "we need to- "she began.
"Obito sensei, guys help" came the voice of Temari; everyone looked and saw her carrying an unconscious Naruto "we got to- what the hell happened here" Temari shouted.
"No time come here" Obito shouted and Temari ran over; the next moment Obito used his vortex to transport everyone away.
With Asuka
A soaking wet Asuka was walking through the woods looking for her aunt Akeno, while trying to not pass out from blood loss; she was holding her bleeding wound as she limped along the forest floor. As she did so she stumbled upon a large forest that seemed to be chopped in half.
"What happened here" Asuka said as she walked along the fallen trees; after walking for a few minutes Asuka saw a sight that shook her to her core. The arm of her aunt sticking out from under a fallen tree; she knew it was Akeno because she could recognize the color of her old Anbu uniform.
Asuka walked over and reached down and grabbed the cold lifeless hand of her aunt; Asuka began to tremble and cry as she held her dead aunt's hand. 'Daddy, Auntie' Akeno thought; now she was all alone in the world.
Suddenly there was the sound of a branch snapping from behind her; Asuka turned around and pulled out a kunai. Asuka saw a handsome man with black hair and onyx-colored eyes wearing what looked like anbu armor and a slashed Konoha headband.
"Do you require any help" Itachi asked the injured girl; Asuka then passed out as the blood loss and coldness of her wet cloths finally took effect. Itachi walked over and picked the girl up "I guess I can take you to lord Danzo" Itachi said as he disappeared with Asuka in a murder of crows.
