Political Alliance
Chapter 27: Breakout The entire complex was up in an uproar, there were explosions all about, fires were starting in several areas, men shouting out orders. It was pure chaos and it was the perfect cover for a group of ninja to infiltrate the complex. Sasuke and Sakura made good time as they traveled the hallway they entered. They did come across the occasional guards, but low grade criminals were no match for ninja. Even a genin knew more about fighting than the average criminal, as ninja train to fight and kill as children. Sakura was keeping up but she could tell that Sasuke was rushing things. Although she wanted to hope it was to find Temari. Sakura herself wanted to find the older girl quickly, although it had been only a short time since Temari had been place on their team, Sakura looked up to the older girl. Sakura really didn’t have anyone to look up to as a female ninja, there weren’t many that she even knew. But Temari was everything that Sakura wished she could be, strong, powerful and full of confidence. Since training with the older girl, Sakura had felt that she had become stronger but still had a long way to go. Also, Temari was someone that Sakura considered not only a comrade but a friend. There was no way she was going to let a friend behind either. Sasuke however was keeping an eye out for the enemy ninja. Although he was told not to engage if possible, if there was no other way to fight then there didn’t seem to be an issue with him. Plus he got the feeling that his group might be a strong group. It took both Naruto and Temari to defeat one of them, and in response both were defeated by another. To him that said that this group had to be strong and it was only fighting strong opponents that Sasuke could see where he was. He needed to test his strength and power, he needed to see how far he had come and how much farther he needed to go. He needed power to kill Itachi, as he was now he knew that he couldn’t do it. He was still too weak but he wouldn’t be weak forever. One day he would catch up to his brother and make him pay for killing their clan, their family. For turning his world to ash and darkness, he would ensure that Itachi paid tenfold for every agonising day that Sasuke had to live since that day. They soon found themselves into a large room, it looked to have been once been a meeting room of some kind only converted into some kind of room for the people that worked here. There were tables that looked out of place, like they were from some other room. Cups and dishes were still on the table. It looked like the guards used this to eat as well as relax. There were countless playing cards and dices. The place smelled of tobacco and alcohol, but there was oddly very little light around the area. The lamps were mostly blown out and heavy shadows filled the room. It was the perfect place for an ambush and Sasuke could feel the hairs on the back of his neck sticking up. Every instinct he had was telling him that someone was in here with them. “Sakura, get out of here as fast as you can.” Sasuke told her scanning the room. “What, but were told to stick together.” She protested. “Damn it get out of here now, hurry and find Temari.” He yelled at her thinking he saw movement in one of the shadows. He activated his eyes and got into a fighting stance. Sakura knew what was going on as she pulled a kunai, “I’m not leaving you.” Sasuke hissed out in annoyance. “Will you just go, you’re no help to me here. I’ll hold this one off but in case Naruto and Kakashi are busy then who will save Temari?” He figured using that would get the girl moving. He could see her hesitating. “Look you’re not strong enough to help me with this, you’ll only be in the way so get going.” He didn’t see just how hurt she was from his words, she had been trying so hard to get stronger but it seemed it wasn’t enough. He didn’t recognize her as strong, and she felt crushed that his view of her hadn’t changed at all. A part of her wanted to stay and fight and show him that she wasn’t as weak as she had been. But there was always that part of her mind, that part that was the little girl that had been bullied and would always have doubts about herself. The part that always said she wasn’t good enough or strong enough, and after hearing his words that part of her mind was louder than it had been in awhile. “Are you sure?” She asked him softly. “Yes, now go before it’s too late.” He said without hesitation. Sakura didn’t want to leave him but he had a point, they needed to save Temari. But she didn’t want to leave her teammate behind either. She knew that for a ninja the mission came first, but didn’t Kakashi tell them that those that abandon their allies are worse than trash? She didn’t have to make the final choice however when a shadowy figure came out of the darkness and attacked her. Sakura jumped back as her back was close to one of the doors that led out of the room. The figure looked like a cloak wearing person with white and red face paint. She couldn’t make out much more than that. But she also didn’t have time to, the figure fired several kunai at her nearly missing her. “Sakura get Temari and then come back, I’ll hold this one off now get going!” Sasuke said angrily as he used a fire jutsu to try and burn the ninja from behind. Sakura saw it coming and had to run through the door and immediately turned and hid behind the wall. She saw the flames and felt the heat from the attack. She was about to see if he was okay, but the door suddenly slammed shut. Sakura was surprised, she went to try and open it but it was a thick door and it seemed to be sealed shut. Sasuke however was already looking to see if the ninja escaped or not. He didn’t think that they had time to use a substitution jutsu but you could never be too careful. The flames were still there slowly dying but nothing else was scene, except for a burnt out cloak. He felt a rush of air and quickly dodged to the side to avoid the woman attacking him from behind. He leaned back to avoid a blade coming out of the dark cloak nearly decapitating him. He threw a kunai through the cloak and it should have hit the body. But instead it seemed to pass through it. She quickly went into the shadows and then appeared out of the opposite end of the room. That black cloak and dark hair made sure she blended into the darkness really well. She seemed to glide forward towards him. He got ready with another kunai as three more forms came out from opposite ends of the room, to his left and right. He had to fight three of these phantoms at once. They moved quickly and he felt a cut form on an arm, it wasn’t deep and it would sting later but he could ignore it. The thing was, they felt off. The blows didn’t feel normal and when he kicked in, it was like there was nothing there. Finally he managed to get out of the way and got some breathing space. The figures seemed to move back and merge back into the shadows. “How does it feel little boy? Do you like my genjustu?” “Genjustu?” Sasuke repeated as he looked around. That didn’t make sense, his eyes should be able to see through any and all genjutsu. How could she use one? Plus he couldn’t see their movements like with a normal person, so they weren’t people with the same look. Something was off here, and he wasn’t sure what. “That’s right my genjustu allows me to attack you but you can’t attack me.” The ninja Yoko said to him. She started to attack again as more and more versions of her seemed to come out of the darkness. Sasuke fought on, trying to keep ahead of her. It wasn’t easy, he could only make out attacks just as they were coming but he couldn’t see past this genjustu of hers, which should be impossible. As he fought on, he realised that she was starting to wear him down. Then a strange thing happened, music filled the air and not just any music either. Someone was playing a flute by the sounds of it. “What the hell, whose there?” Yoko demanded to the darkness. A young woman’s laughter was heard as the music stopped. “And here I thought the great Uchiha would have seen through you’re trick.” Said the voice echoing off the walls. “Haven’t you seen past her trick yet you moron? Here’s a tip, she’s not using genjutsu at all.” “What?” Sasuke looked again at the figures. They all looked the same but it was true that a genjutsu he should have seen through. But the woman kept insisting it was a genjustu, which meant that she was lying the entire time. Sasuke felt like kicking himself for letting himself fall for one of the ninja basic fundamentals, deception. So the question was, besides who the hell was in here with him, was how this woman was doing it. “Oh come on, it’s easy once you think it through.” “Shut the hell up!” demanded Yoko into the darkness. She didn’t like anyone pointing out how her trick worked. “Bite me you bitch.” “What did you say!?” Yoko yelled out getting distracted. Sasuke took advantage of this distraction and threw out half a dozen shuriken. Although they weren’t normal ones, these had ninja wire attached to them. They flew over the area, some going through the figures while others went close to them. Yoko wasn’t sure what he was up to as one of her forms had to dodge one of the deadly little blades. Sasuke grinned, that was the one he wanted. With his one hand he put the ends of the wires into his mouth and used a flame jutsu. The flame travelled with the wires, one wire had at least pierce the ‘chest’ of one of the ‘illusions’, but he knew these weren’t illusions. The flames spread out in a web, making it nearly impossible to avoid. The figures went up in flames as only one of them cried out in pain. She held her arm as she had been burned by the flames. What he saw was that the heads were puppets with slim skeletal structure. That’s why they moved so fast, they hardly had any weight to them. Plus with so little to hit under the cloaks, it would be easy to miss the actual body parts. “So looks like you did figure out her little trick,” came the female voice again. “I do have to admit, using puppets to pose as a genjustu is a nice little trick you got there. I hope that you at least have a backup because that boy will kill you otherwise.” “Whose side are you on?” Yoko screamed as she threw away her cloak. She saw that half of her puppets were useless and she couldn’t use her burnt arm. “I’m on my side,” The girl returned. “I don’t care if you live or die. I’m only here to make sure he doesn’t die and the rest...well it’s not your fucking business anyway.” Yoko cursed the girl out as she called her remaining puppets. They detached apart, each one having the disguise fall away leaving the wooden true forms appear. They seemed to attach themselves to Yoko, almost like body armour against her body. Blades stuck out in key places as her entire body was covered. “I’m going to kill you, after I kill him,” Yoko said taking a step forward. “Now that I’m not going to be subtle I can use my Puppet Armour. The armour is thick enough to take a lot of punishment boy and if you think this makes me slow, think again.” She moved at Sasuke with incredible speed, he couldn’t avoid the kick as it sent him flying off into a few tables. Yoko laughed even though she was in pain, the downside to this jutsu was that using the enhanced speed and strength. She was using her puppet skills to move the armour itself at the speed. Her body was just going along for the ride but the strain it put on her body was hard. Too much and she could injure herself even more. “Face it, you’re not strong enough to beat me boy,” Yoko laughed but then the tables seemed to explode outward. There stood the boy but with strange black markings covering half his body. The sound of birds chirping could be heard as Sasuke had a chidori ready for her. She would have to take the hit and then counter attack with her fist. Given that with the armour her fists could hit like sledge hammers, one good hit to the head and that’s all she needed. Unfortunately she didn’t know that the chidori was an assassination technique, designed to pierce through practically anything. Sasuke ran forward and then ran her through. She gave a surprised outcry before her voice was cut off. She tried to move but her body refused to. Sasuke pulled his bloody hand out of her chest leaving her to fall to the floor dead. He stood there catching his breath as he heard clapping. He looked to see a girl, about his own age with red hair walking towards him. “Well I hate to admit when I’m wrong but you actually might not be totally worthless after all.” “Who are you?” Sasuke demanded. “Someone that can teach you more about the curse seal,” She answered as black markings of her own showed up on her body. “You’re doing well do far but you have only just scratched the surface. There is a lot more power in it than you know.” “You’re with Orochimaru.” Sasuke stated fitting it all into place. “You’re the one that was following me earlier in town weren’t you?” She paused for a moment, caught off guard by that. She thought she had been pretty good to not let him see her. “Well yes that was me. Tell me, do you truly want real power? Because I can help, I can show you everything I know about that seal and then some. I was sent to offer you a choice.” “You can learn to do this on your own, or I can teach you things you’ll never know on you’re own.” “What’s the catch?” Sasuke asked knowing that Orochimaru wanted him. “I’m only to show you what’s possible under Orochimaru-sama. If you want more power then I’ll lead you to him. But that means you have to leave the village, if you’re happy being compared to that orange wearing idiot fine by me. At the rate he’s going he’s going to surpass you.” Tayuya smirked seeing the dark shadow that seemed to come over Sasuke’s eyes. “So...what do you say?” Tayuya asked him. -Lower Cells- Temari heard the sounds of battle outside her cell. She knew that her team would come but she had to work harder to get out of the cell. It had taken a good half an hour to cut her hands free. Although she still had manacles on her wrists, at least she wasn’t chained to the wall anymore. Thankfully they hadn’t chained her feet together. Now she just had to pick the lock of her cell, this time it was something she had picked up. She reached into her hair and pulled out a couple of hidden metal pick she kept there. If people only knew the kinds of things she could hid in her hair like that. After all, a ninja made full use of everything, even their appearance usually had some meaning or reasoning behind it. She was already working on trying to pick the lock. She could had tried for the shackles on her wrists but if the metal broke she would be screwed. So first the door, although it wasn’t easy, she had only done this enough times to get the basic idea out of it. She hadn’t kept up the practice or learned about more complicated locks. That was something she would look into after this, if this ever happened again, she vowed to be more prepared. She was just lucky they hadn’t searched her hair or taken her shoes. Hell, some times a prisoner would be stripped naked to ensure nothing was hidden on their bodies. Thankfully that hadn’t happened. Only her husband would ever get that privilege. A bang of worry hit her, was Naruto alright? He had taken a large hit and although she had faith in him, she was still worried. Temari shook her head and berated herself for doubting him, she told herself that she would get out of here and see him again. She went back to work and finally after a lot of effort and swearing she managed to get it open. So now she was free, now she needed to find her fan, her equipment if possible, and meet up with the others while avoiding detection. Sounded like a challenge to her, she grinned at that thought. She did so love a challenge. -Courtyard- Kakashi and Naruto were taking a short cut over open ground. Sure it was risky but with everyone attention looking outside it made it easier. They were heading towards the main building. The courtyard was mostly grass with a stone path. There were a few decorative statues but nothing worth noticing. A few low hedges and just the usual stuff you’d expect in one of these places. Although when they got near the door they found that it was already someone waiting for them. There in the door way, with two torches on either side for light, was standing a huge man with a cape and a nasty looking weapon. Kakashi saw that the weapon was a Kanabo, a large eight sided club made from solid oak with metal studs all over the sides. It was a heavy but brutal weapon, something that would shatter bones and organs with a single hit. And given the size of the man and the force that could be used behind it, Kakashi was going to have to make sure to keep his distance. Kakashi threw several smoke bombs quickly to give Naruto some cover. The large man swung his weapon in an arc through the smoke. He felt a few hits, which was odd since there were only two of them. That is until a few Naruto clones came out and grabbed the man. The real Naruto jumped up high, stepping on the man’s head and using that to spring himself over and through the doorway. Goro easily managed to get the clones off him as they dispelled. At least Goro had an idea as to why there were so many attackers, but all of those from just one boy? He didn’t think that was possible, if it was then the boy’s chakra would be higher than most ninja in the entire world. But regardless he would have to get the boy later if the rest of his team didn’t. Now he had to deal with Kakashi first, that man was the most dangerous out of the group. Goro calmly waited for the first move, as the smoke cleared he saw a few shuriken being thrown at him. Most likely thinking that would work but there was something that Kakashi didn’t know. Goro swung his weapon as easily as though it weighed nothing, smashing the small metal objects. He saw that Kakashi was finishing up a jutsu of his own as those had just been a distraction. Well Goro had a surprise for him, he dropped his weapon as he started his own hand seals. Thankfully he could do this jutsu in his sleep. Kakashi let loose a large blast of fire, he knew it would be seen from the walls but battling this man would get anyone’s attention anyway. So it would be best to end this quickly, as he could and then get inside out of the line of sight before that happened. The flame enveloped a wide area, there’s wasn’t much in the way of getting away from that kind of attack. As the flames died down he was surprised by what he saw. There was now a large wall of red hot rock protecting the ninja. For a moment nothing happened and then Kakashi felt a small tremor in the ground. He knew this jutsu that was about to happen, with only a split second to get himself save he jumped out of the way. He just managed to make it when a large hand came out of the ground just missing his foot. Soon the large man erupted out of the ground and swung his massive weapon at Kakashi. The large weapon passed by so close that he could feel the wind as it passed by his face as he dodged it. “Not bad but let’s see you dodge this,” Goro said as he thrust the top of his weapon into the ground. Suddenly a dozen sharp sword like objects, that were made from the earth itself came from the ground. Kakashi guessed that the weapon could be used to make earth type jutsus like how Temari used her fans. But this created more and more of these earth blades from the ground. Kakashi had to keep moving or else suffer being impaled. Already he felt two of the blades cut into him. One grazed his thigh, thankfully it didn’t get a clean hit but the one that got an arm had been better. He gritted his teeth feeling the sharp stone and earth cut into the flesh of his left arm. He needed to end this a lot quicker if he wanted to survive. Already he could hear shouts from the walls as the guards were noticing what was going on. Goro grinned to himself, his earth spires were a very nasty jutsu when you were stuck on the ground. That’s why he picked this wide open space, there was no high ground to escape. He saw Kakashi moving through the gaps, and he was injured. With his weapon he smashed through his rock spires as he made his way to Kakashi. He jumped on top of a flat edge to gain some height. Goro had managed to get just the right angle as he came down on top of Kakashi. The masked Konoha ninja only had time to turn and face him before the weapon crushed in his skull. Or at least that was what was supposed to happen. Instead, Kakashi turned into smoke and it was only then that he realized his mistake. He had lost sight of Kakashi long enough for the man to make a shadow clone. It was then he felt the cold steel on his neck. Goro chuckled a bit, “Damn I never even heard you coming up behind me. You really are deserving of your reputation.” “Last requests?” Kakashi asked, he didn’t normally give them but this guy had surprised him with that jutsu. He was glad to have copied it, it might come in handy later on. “Just tell them that Goro of the Broken Earth died well.” He simply stated before Kakashi cut this throat. It didn’t last long as Kakashi quickly turned the kunai and plunged it into the base of the neck. Making sure to kill him as quickly as possible, there was no need to prolong death in such a way. He could only hope someone showed him the same mercy if his time came. -Naruto- Naruto had no idea where he was going, any enemies he came across he just beat up and left behind him. He sent out a few clones in other directions to show him where things were, but all this use of clones was starting to put a strain on him. The clones outside attacking were at half strength, the enemies had been attacking his clones with whatever they could find. Granted most of the criminals had been beaten but Naruto was starting to feel it. He hadn’t really used this many shadow clones for this amount of time. Normally he used a lot for short periods or a small number for long periods. All the stuff they had been doing was catching up to him. Looking around the place it all seemed the same to him, the same wooden floors, the same red pillars with gold trim. Nothing really stood out and he was just taking one turn into another. He finally seemed to have found his way into some central area. There were some large stone statues of some kind of figures. He didn’t know who they were supposed to be, then again if it wasn’t about ninja in school he never did pay much attention. There were two stair wells next to each other going up, and a gap between them going down. It looked like some kind of large meeting hall of something. So now he had a choice, to go up and down. Kakashi said that they might have dungeons so maybe down was the best route. If not, he could always come back and then take the other way up. He was just about to run to the stairs leading down when a huge gust of wind hit him. He flew back slamming into one of the statues. “Damn, you’re still alive?” Kimi said as she had been hidden behind one of the large statues waiting. “I’d have thought that those trees would have killed you. Buddha or kami must smile upon idiots and fools, that is if you believe in that kind of stuff.” “Where’s Temari-chan?” Naruto said as he struggled to get up. His back hurt but he had been hit a lot worst that than. He could feel the metallic taste of blood in his mouth, most likely he got a cut lip from his teeth or something. “Oh so it’s Temari-chan, huh? So you two are together that way.” Kimi stated as she slowly moved forward with her own fan. “What if I said she was already dead?” “You’re lying, she’s not dead!” Naruto shouted out at her. “Then I guess you’ll have to see for yourself, that is if you think you can beat me.” Kimi stated as she got into a fighting pose.
