Reunion of Shadows 4
They fell silent as they felt three chakra signatures approaching.
Suigetsu was hopping from foot to foot, in unrepentant childish glee. Sasuke's
eyes were deadly serious though, ready to bleed red…
Sasuke's heart was
thundering in his chest as the door knob was pressed down slightly. He knew the
counsellors would be the ones to enter, finally he would have revenge. One that
wouldn't leave a bitter taste in his mouth… wouldn't leave an unbearable
feeling of loss in his heart.
Suigetsu was looking at him
intently, unwilling to miss even a scrap of the scene. His toothy and pointy
smile fascinating as one tooth poked out slightly on his lower lip, almost
making him cute in an oddly creepy kind of way.
The door opened and a
slender woman entered, the squirrel mask on her face pointing her out as an
Anbu, certainly a member of ROOT, acting directly under Danzou's orders. Her
eyes widened as Sasuke swooped down on her. Right behind her, were the two
counsellors: Homura and Koharu. Sasuke didn't let his disappointment at the
absence of his main target show.
The squirrel girl barely had
time to block his sword with a kunai, but Sasuke had already jumped above her, scraping
his fingers on her mask. Sasuke’s chidori cracked the mask and it fell away as
she shook off the attack.
Smoothly lending behind the two elders, Sasuke
smirked as they jumped away and turned to face him. They had entered the room
as expected and he simply closed it, Suigetsu stepping in front of it, waving
at their adversary with that same toothy grin.
The squirrel girl
immediately moved to re-enter the fight, but Sasuke’s eyes narrowed as their
eyes met. Unable to resist the Mangekyou, she crashed to the floor beside her
mask barely a second after.
"Uchiha, still a
traitor like all of your clan I se-" started Homura, his words dying on
his lips as his head was simply severed from his body, rolling on the floor,
his blood painting the room a vivid red.
"Whoa, quite
expeditious, can't you give me more of a show?" grumbled Suigetsu, leaning
on the door. He grinned as a heated red glare was sent is way. He just couldn't
help it!
"Sasuke, this isn't
going to help your case," started Koharu, her voice trembling just
slightly. "I'm sorry for what happened but you have to understand it was a
necessity, it was for Konoha's sake and-"
She fell silent; the
vicious grip on her throat hadn’t really given her the choice.
"Don't make excuses,"
he hissed at her, his gaze never left hers as Chidori made the old woman’s body
thrash in agony as it coursed through her.
Once dead he let her slip
from his hold, the corpse slumping on the floor with a muted thump. He looked
at the deceased counsellors and couldn't help the tiny smile that graced his lips.
Kakashi had been right about Itachi; his revenge hadn't made him feel
better, not even for one second before it had turned into a horrid nightmare as
he learned the truth.
However, this time, Kakashi
was wrong about revenge. It didn't leave him empty; it brought him a sense of
fulfilment- finally, justice for the betrayal that had ruined his life. It could
never bring back the dead, but it might give them peace. But one more still had
to die for him to be free from this burden.
"That was better
Sasuke, it was still over too fast but that was far more entertaining; next
time try to cut off their arms and legs first before beheading them,"
advised Suigetsu, patting his friend's shoulder.
Sasuke slapped his hand
away and didn't even acknowledge him; he opened the door and stopped for a
minute, turning to the water clone.
"Dispel and get ready
for a fight. I'm going after Danzou; don't let anyone get in my way, but
remember no killing," ordered Sasuke.
"Hey, you're not the
boss! And it's not fun if we can't kill!" muttered Suigetsu, complying
anyway and disappearing.
Sasuke left without a look
back, not bothering to check if the Anbu girl was ok, she would wake up soon enough.
------------
Kakashi felt strangely
good. He shouldn't really. He had been tricked by Sasuke, had learned something
horrible about Konoha’s long buried past, while said village was in a state of
disaster … and yet he couldn't help feeling light headed.
Maybe it had something to
do with the fact he had jumped Sasuke. He sighed, only in a genjutsu of course,
but still, it had felt incredibly good and he felt as relaxed as if it had
really happened. Maybe he should try this therapy from now on… or he could
write a book… with a hot prison sex scene. He chuckled to himself.
He stilled his face and erased
his dirty thoughts has he reached the hospital. Tsunade-sama had to be there,
exhausting herself to cure the injured. He entered the place, sadness falling
on him as the scent of death and blood invaded his nose. It brought back bad
memories of the wars he had seen. Death was lurking at the side of every bed.
"Kakashi-sensei?"
He waved at Sakura, smiling
at her in reassurance as she hurried toward him, worried about his health. He
shooed her before she could reach him and as soon as his pink student was back
to her work, he looked around for Tsunade. He tried not to look at the injured,
he knew all his precious people were safe but he couldn't help fearing to catch
a familiar face. As he walked between the improvised beds, his frown deepened.
There were lots of medics, running everywhere, but no trace of Tsunade. He kept
looking for her, already thinking of all the other places where she could be. He
had to hurry; he didn't know when the elders would make their move on Sasuke.
Feeling a strange anguish
in the pit of his stomach he left for the Hokage tower, or what remained of it
after the fight with Pain. What would make Tsunade-sama leave the bed of her
patients? Even if she couldn't heal them because of lack of chakra, she should
be here giving orders and helping out with diagnostics or teaching techniques…
"Hey! Suigetsu don't
kill him!"
Kakashi froze at the voice,
recognizing it as Karin's. He jumped into a tree, concealing his presence and
coming closer to see what was happening. Nothing good he was sure.
"What Sasuke doesn't
know won't bother him," replied a man, Suigetsu.
"We have to find
Danzou," pointed out another man, Juugo.
"Right. Suigetsu, you
dork, we have to find him before Sasuke and tell him were he is, then we have
to make sure no one interrupts before he's done with his revenge."
"Pfff you just want to
see Sasuke kick the guy’s ass so you can go all fangirly on his sweaty form
and-"
"JERK!!!” The woman
screeched and attacked, but her fist caused nothing more than a splash as it connected
with his chest. “Stop turning into water, you coward!"
Kakashi had been right,
here was Sasuke's team, arguing in the middle of eight knocked out Anbu. Despised
being quite angry at what was happening he couldn't help a pang of pride and
happiness: his student had ordered them not to kill. On the other hand why did
they want to find Danzou? They should be more concerned with freeing him; since
the raven was locked in a cell… wasn't he?
The big guy named Juugo
seemed to be busy talking with a bird for a moment, ignoring his two arguing comrades.
He thanked the songbird and watched him fly away before turning back to the
others.
"Let’s go. Danzou is in
the Hokage tower, we have to secure the perimeter. Sasuke’s on his way."
Oh crap. He had underestimated
his student! How the hell had Sasuke managed to escape the Tower he couldn't
figure, but that didn't matter right now. He was obviously going for Danzou's
head… and Tsunade-sama might be there too! Who knew what Sasuke had in mind, he
might want to kill her too in his revenge, or if she tried to stop him. Anyway,
it wasn't good news and he had to jump in before something worse happened. In a
puff of smoke the Jounin disappeared, sending clones to warn as many people as
he could.
As he appeared at the gate
of the Hokage tower he couldn't help but stare in surprise at what met him. The
front doors were gone and Tsunade-sama was fighting Danzou, the latter was
trying to kill her! He had the upper hand. She had exhausted herself to save
most of the villagers, healing them with her slugs… she had even used the seal
on her head when she had fought Pain (1), so she couldn't relay on that either.
"Die! I will make
Konoha strong again!" screamed Danzou, a katana slashing toward the fallen
woman.
Kakashi was going to throw
himself head first in front of the woman only to be beaten by Sasuke. The
latter materialized and snapped the sword in two, Danzou jumped away just in
time to evade a chidori.
Kakashi reached the Hokage
and checked her. She shifted to a crouch, trying to get her bearings back but
wasn't in a good state. He crouched beside her on the floor, ready to pounce,
wondering what he should do.
"Sasuke Uchiha," spat
the old man.
He was holding his side
with his remaining hand. It seemed he had some broken ribs, gift from Tsunade.
"Danzou," replied
Sasuke, the dark comas in his eyes twirling dangerously.
"I should have killed
you much sooner! Believe me; I would have if only those old coots hadn't been
so afraid of your pathetic brother!"
Sasuke shrugged. "They
won't interfere with you anymore, but you won't be here to enjoy the freedom."
Kakashi pinched his nose,
so the two council advisors were dead. What was going to happen now?
Sasuke had left Konoha but
not done anything against them, so there had been room to hope he would be
forgiven but now… he had killed the counsellors and was going to add Danzou's
death to the record. Maybe the fact that he had helped against Pain, saving
Kakashi in the process, then saving the Hokage from death could play in his
favour?
Anyway, as much as he knew
Danzou deserved death, he couldn't let Sasuke aggravate his case. With one look
to his Hokage, he dashed to the raven, pulling up his forehead protector.
"Sasuke," he
started only to have a glare directed at him, freezing him on the spot, what
were those Sharingan eyes?
Danzou tensed as Kakashi
approached Sasuke. Where they going to team up against him? If so it might get
difficult for him. He had to be extra cautious not to look in their eyes. He
was going to attack them while they looked at each other. As he readied himself
his eyes widened in surprise.
"Don't reduce your
chances at redemption," asked Kakashi only to have a sword pierce his
chest, just below the heart. Not a fatal wound, but it would be if he wasn't
healed fast.
A chocked sound escaped the
Jounin's lips as he fell on his knees then collapsed on the floor, his eyes
wide open. Danzou laughed darkly as the raven swiftly took care of his former
teacher, as if it was nothing at all.
"Ruthless, just like
me," he praised.
The young man barely
glanced at him, but Danzou knew he was on his guard, even as he pulled out his
sword from his sensei's body to wipe it and put it back in its holder.
"Forget about revenge
and join me, we could give back to the ninja world his greatness!"
Sasuke gave a disdainful
snort. Unsheathing his sword he raced to him, chidori chirping in his wake. Electricity
tickled his arms, as he drew closer.
"Stupid brat."
With Kakashi dying and
Tsunade in no better state, it was only between the teen and him. The
pretentious young Uchiha stood no chance against an old warrior like him. It would
be dealt with in no time.
He side stepped the
chidori, mindful of the sword charge with it. One blow from it could be fatal.
It was no use trying to block it with a kunai; it would be cut as butter. He
threw a shukiren as the blade came toward him again, as expected it was sever
in two, but it served its purpose. Danzou had angled it so, once cut, one part
would aim at the Uchiha's head.
Waiting for the opening that
would ensue Danzou growled as Sasuke dig his sword in font of him, using it to
twist his body and unfurled an amazing combo. He had to admit the dark-haired boy
was living up to his genius reputation. Still, he lacked some experience only
great battles gave.
He parried all the attacks
but found himself at a loss as the sword was pulled out of the floor by a metal
string and slashed at his side. Fortunately he had the reflex of blocking it
with his own destroyed sword. He kicked the little bugger away and took his
distances again.
He was bleeding, he snorted,
the brat had aimed at his unprotected side. He was used to his missing arm
creating a weakness, yet it irked him that he had been injured. He would have
to use his tromp card; he couldn't afford to lose more time. After all, he
didn't knew if some reinforcement were coming… he had to kill Tsunade and the
brat before anyone could intrude, then he would accuse the teen of her murder.
It would be perfect.
He let Sasuke get close to him
again, amused at how the teen was so confident in his victory, it would be his
downfall. He thought he had tested him, that he was only an old man. It was
never a good idea to underestimate ones adversary. In the blink of an eye he
was behind him, his arm hitting the Uchiha squarely in the back, one leg making
the teen trip, knocking him on the ground. Using the remains of his katana,
Danzou pinned it in the young man shoulder, making sure he would stay face down
on the dirt, where he belonged.
"You're better than I
thought, but you're not good enough," he said, taking Sasuke's discarded
sword and plunging it in the brat's side, earning a grunt of pain and hatred.
He jumped away as a Chidori
Nagashi nearly caught him. Like all worms he was wriggling on the floor, trying
to escape his destiny. Using thread like had the Uchiha before he threw some
shuriken and kunai, making sure the brat would stay pinned to the floor. It
would be a pity to kill him now, maybe he could steal his eyes, they could be
useful.
"You're like the rest
of your clan- powerful but reckless. They were only useful while we could keep
them controlled so I don't regret having them all killed. Luckily your brother
was such a pussy that the mere threat
of another war, was just what I needed to make him strike in our favour."
He gave a harsh kick as
Sasuke snarled at those words. He heard Kakashi cough up blood; even dying it
seemed he was desperate to protect the student who killed him. What a pathetic end
for Konoha’s most famous ninja. Ninja were tools; one dead meant nothing as
long as the mission was completed.
"Your father didn't
fear the war- or rebuilding afterward. I admired him for that, but he put
himself between me and my ambitions, and I couldn’t allow it. Even Koharu and
Homura never guessed the depth of my ambitions. You weren’t supposed to be
here, Sasuke, but it doesn’t matter. Four times those two cowards refused to
name me Hokage, and now they must be dead, and I can blame you, just like I
planned. And now," Danzou turned to Tsunade.
She was crawling toward
Kakashi, supposedly to cure him even if she didn't have one ounce of chakra
left. Danzou felt hatred and scorn engulf him. Their village was looked down upon
by the other four because of this crappy love and peace philosophy. It was ridiculous!
He pulled out a kunai, smiling as his victory was at hand.
"Now you are the one
in my way, Princess Tsunade. I'm the
only one that can make Konoha a powerful village, but after your death, you pitiful
bitch, Konoha will finally be MINE!"
"Don't think you’re
done with me," snarled Sasuke, coughing blood and trying to stand up.
Danzou spared him a glance,
but he was no threat. Tsunade was his priority, even if he didn't have time to kill
the Uchiha; no-one would dare trust him. And it would be easy to make sure
Kakashi wouldn't survive his wounds. His smile was one of malicious glee as he
turned back to the injured woman.
--------To be continued--------
(1)
I'm not following the manga exactly, since I started this before Pein used Shinra
Tensi, so Konoha hasn't been destroyed (but it's not in a good shape either
lol). Tsunade fought against Pain, and Konoha's ninja (Aburame family, Inuzuka…)
killed the other Pains. As said in the previous chapters, Sasuke saved Kakashi,
helped killing Pain along with Naruto.
