Last Time:
To his horror they were being attacked by Mist ninjas and the attack was sending boulders into the water right over where the submarine would be. If something wasn’t done then those inside will drown or be crushed …

Two shadows very carefully approached the Yamanaka compound in the dead of night. The figures silently crept up to one of the windows on the first floor and very carefully slid it open just enough to reach an arm through the gap. A slender arm did indeed take advantage of that gap and silently moved the closed curtain aside just enough to see inside. When the figures seemed pleased with the lack of people they opened the window all the way and silently crept inside the kitchen. There directly at their feet and glowing slightly in the moonlight, which slipped by courtesy of a passing cloud, was the puppet.
One figure gasped in horror at the broken state of the puppet, which still had the henge on it even if the clone controlling it was gone. It looked like a dead and violated naked Tori was lying on the floor and that would startle anyone. However, the other figure clapped a hand over his mouth. For a moment both figures, who were revealed by the slight moonlight to be Shikaku and Tori, froze in silence. They both hoped Inoichi didn’t hear them. It wasn’t until the moonlight was blocked off by another meandering cloud and darkness covered them that they felt safe enough to continue with their task.
Even though the henge was removed Shikaku felt sick at the sight of the puppet that Tori was carefully fixing. To think his friend would hurt Tori in such a way and allow others to do the same. As he dwelled on the subject it became less surprising. Not less disturbing. It was just truly becoming clear who his old teammate really was.
Tori finished quietly fixing the puppet and proceeded to put her own clone back in the puppet. Of course, Shikaku immediately mouthed the word ‘why’ before following her out of the compound. Right before they were gone he looked over his shoulder and spotted the puppet standing up. The puppet reapplied the Tori henge and went back to pretending to be the controlled housewife.
“Why did you do that? We could’ve found another way.” The Nara clan head asked not sure why she would want to take that hellish role as Inoichi’s civilian wife and when anyone could control the puppet.
“You saw …” Tori said softly as they raced away. “Shikaku, that puppet was me for years … I know I can’t handle another meeting and I owe Shibi so much for sparing me that, but this’ll end before then. I’ll make sure of it and if that means putting up with Inoichi so no one else has to then I’ll do it. I can handle what comes between the meetings.”
Shikaku frowned, “You won’t have to for long. Just don’t kill him.”
Tori scoffed, “I may hate the man, but I have enough control to keep him clueless and alive until he isn’t needed.”
“Makes you better than me.” Shikaku muttered, making Tori ever so slightly curious about what Inoichi did. In the end she decided to drop the subject and they continued to the compound hidden by the waterfall.

Kankuro’ s eyes widened once he saw his father floating on the cloud of sand over them, but he kept his focus. In one fluid movement he grabbed his sister around the waist and pulled her as far back as he could go.
“Kankuro! It’s just me-“ Rasa started saying, but was immediately cut off by a deadly water jutsu. He dodged the pillar of water and turned to his opponent. “Guess you’re first.” He said as his sand was used to block the powerful punch from the cloaked figure who emerged from the dark water. The punch still ended up sending him back a good distance away from his kids despite the sand shield.
Another person out of the darkness sent a kick to the kazekage’s face. However, the sand came to block it. A much larger blast of water followed, taking most of the sand into the lake. The kazekage was forced to stand on the surface of the water because so much of his sand was being dragged down to the watery depths.
Unfortunately for the kazekage there was a little something extra in that last water jutsu. The second the water hit him a glowing substance was splashed on him as well. With the darkness of the night cloaking most of everything around them, that meant that Rasa was very easy to see.
Rasa glared at his children, “You fools!” He snapped furiously when he jumped towards where he thought his children were and saw Kankuro placing a seal on a spot under Temari’s breast before healing her wound using his own glow to see. He realized it was a trap and his own children were behind it. “What do you-“ before he could get any closer or say anymore he was forced back by a water jutsu as a third opponent emerged from the water. The blast sent him flying and he effectively lost sight of his children.
“Fuck you!” Temari snapped and watched as Tenzo, Itachi and Orochimaru, it was hard to tell which was which in the darkness, continued attacking.
Even without any sand left to help Rasa with defense and offense he was still strong. Despite the disadvantages still fought back and even caused some damage of his own. When she heard a bone break after Rasa threw a punch she was sure that either Itachi, Tenzo or Orochimaru was injured and decided to try and distract her father.
“You let him molest us!” She screamed and scowled when her glowing father’s face looked surprised for a moment before becoming annoyed. “You knew!” She yelled and watched one of the ninjas in the darkness manage to badly injure the glowing Rasa’s arm.
Rasa held his bleeding arm and tried to track the ninjas around him, “It was a small sacrifice that would’ve led to something big-…” A wave of dizziness hit him and he realized he was bleeding much more than the gash on his arm should allow. “Dammit.”
“Like the blood thinner? I would’ve used a poison, but I wasn’t sure what you were potentially immune to.” Orochimaru’s voice taunted in the dark.
The kazekage barely rolled out of the way as he dodged a spear of wood, “Orochimaru-ah!” Rasa gasped in pain as the water under his hands and feet allowed sea snakes to get right up to him and sink their fangs in the openings of the classic ninja sandals. “You … can’t stop us.” He stuttered slightly as he flared his chakra and killed the snakes chewing on him. Unfortunately, the bite wounds were now bleeding freely.
“You will be stopped first.” The eerie voice of the snake sage said. “Then Obito.” He murmured in the seemingly disembodied voice. What was said took Rasa by complete surprise and allowed a kunai to hit the kazekage’s side, which was exposed because Rasa decided to try to stop the bleeding in one hand by holding it with the other hand. “Then Hiruzen and Inoichi. Definitely Inoichi. I hear he’s a serious scumbag.” Orochimaru said tauntingly, taking Rasa by surprise again. “Madara will be next.”
“How-“ Rasa screamed and fell to his knees when a small sphere of water blasted him in the gut. He was weakening to the point where he started sinking slowly into the water he was on. The eerie pale visages of Orochimaru and Itachi were revealed as the two ninjas stepped very close to the glowing kazekage.
“Like I said, you’re first.” The snake sage said before making a hand sign.
Barely a second later the water under the kazekage rippled as the tips of something breached the water’s surface. It turned out to be the open mouth of a massive snake rising up right under the kazekage. The powerful jaws snapped shut on the weakened Rasa leaving the upper half hanging out of the mouth. With blood gushing out of the kazekage’s own mouth and the rest of his body hanging inside the snake the man soon bled out.
It effectively killed the kazekage and allowed Orochimaru to confirm it. Once the man was truly dead the snake opened its mouth. Without any life the body of the kazekage sank beneath the water and into the snake’s mouth. This time he was swallowed never to be seen again.
Tenzo made a torch out of wood and Itachi lit it for him since his broken arm meant he was left with one hand, “Are you guys ok?” He asked as he, Itachi and Orochimaru went over to Temari and Kankuro. Itachi seemed to be favoring one leg and his arm was injured, but he was more concerned about the two people who did just lose as father. Besides, Temari seemed pale.
Kankuro nodded, “Yeah, but I think Temari could’ve held back a bit with making the gash.” He muttered and his sister scoffed.
“Let me see. Tenzo, Itachi, can you two wait a moment?” Orochimaru asked as he knelt on the water to look at the wound that triggered the seal and started this battle.
Tenzo shrugged, “I’ll start healing. It’s just a few breaks.” He said and with his good arm handed the torch to Kankuro so he could work on his own and Itachi’s wounds.
“Ok … yeah, that’s too deep!” The snake sage exclaimed the second Kankuro moved his hand to hold the torch and saw the bloody gash on the woman’s abdomen thanks to the light.
Temari rolled her eyes, “I wanted to be sure he’d get here.” She muttered as her eyes lingered on the water off in the distance.
“Overachieving isn’t always necessary.” The snake sage commented as he healed the gash. When he finished he looked up and saw Temari staring into the darkness right where Rasa met his end. “It is ok to mourn him.” He said earning a glare from Temari.
“I refuse to mourn that bastard.” Temari murmured hatefully.
Orochimaru shrugged, “Closure will allow you to truly close him out completely. Without him in your mind it’d be easier to focus on other things like your brother.”
The Sand siblings’ eyes widened as they remembered everything else going on. Once all wounds were healed they all quickly got ready to go. Tenzo got the bird and sent a letter to Naruto right before they got off the lagoon. What they do next will depend on what information they get from the blonde …

“Shit!” Naruto exclaimed as the submarine shook violently. “What’s going on?!” He yelled as everyone stumbled into the front of the submarine with the captain.
The worried crew were scrambling as the captain watched through the scope, “There’s a lot of very large debris falling on us.” The captain said trying to sound calmer than he actually was. “Get the engines to full power! Full speed ahead!”
Naruto frowned when he spotted the wall covered in ice, “That’s the signal.”
“I would get everyone out of here now, but considering what’s falling towards us we need to get out of the way first before even thinking about going up to the surface.” The captain said right before grasping a nearby monster when the submarine shook again.
Hinata immediately activated her byakugan and paled, “There’s no way we can dodge what’s about to hit us.” She whispered to her fellow ninjas.
In an instant hundreds of blonde clones appeared. They completely stayed out of the crews' way while applying seals throughout the submarine. Of course, the seals would, at least, prevent them all from being completely crushed. Getting out is a problem that can be saved for after the collision. In an attempt to prepare for the worst they all contacted their puppets.

The Kurenai puppet smiled as they reached the gates, “You guys go talk to your parents. I’m sure they will love to know how your mission went.” She said as the large ninja group walked past the gate guards.
Ino, Kiba, Akamaru and Choji saw all those using puppets suddenly stiffen and rush off. While Ino was happy to no longer have Asuma in her field of vision, the sudden exit after everything they learned worried all four of them. However, they knew if they wanted to help then they needed to act like they didn’t have their minds blown wide open and go home. Once they were home they could get in contact with everyone. Eager to discover what’s going on they split up and each took off.
Ino felt tears threatening to come to her eyes as she saw her home. Right before they got to the village Naruto’s puppet told her the good news. Somewhere in the back of her mind she knew there was something dark about why her mother put a clone in a puppet, but she didn’t care. At this moment she wanted nothing more than to hug her mother.
“Mom! I’m home!” Ino exclaimed and immediately wrapped her arms around the woman there even though she knew it was a puppet. She had to play her part until she could hug the real thing.
Tori smiled, “I’m so happy to see you … truly see you.” Tori said softly.
‘Hey! Where’s my hug?” Inoichi laughed as he came into the room.
“What makes you think you deserve it?” Ino said right before laughing while playfully poking out her tongue.
With a bit of reluctance Ino let go of the puppet and ran over to her father. It took everything she had to keep the smile on her face as she hugged the man, but she did. It helped that the Tori puppet moved behind Inoichi so Ino could see her and he couldn’t. Clearly Tori didn’t like being around him anymore than her, but they both pretended to smile.
“I have clan business to attend to. I’ll be gone for most of the day so why don’t you two bake something together.” Inoichi said and placed a kiss on Ino’s forehead. “You both have fun.” He said before leaving.
“We will.” Tori said and once Inoichi was far enough away she leaned over to her daughter. “Head for the Backhills.” She whispered and watched Ino sneak out the back of the house.
Ino never saw the concerned look on the puppet’s face as it started making a batch of cookies so Inoichi wouldn’t get suspicious. Both the Tori clone in the puppet and the real Tori were worried about the events taking place in Mist …
