Taro-
Heh. What a weakling. For a NarutoGaara clone, he was not as strong. I suppose that's because he lacks a demon's chakra. That isn't my problem though. A kill is a kill no matter where you get it from. I looked at the sky. Seemed that stupid spider wasn't worth summoning. His father wouldn't have gone down as easily. "Taro, you want me to handle him?" Kidomaru asked.
"No," I responded.
"But Orochimaru-" I cut him off there.
I slit his throat with a poison-tipped needle and stabbed a kunai knife in his chest. He was dead. "I don't care about Orochimaru. I don't even care for you Kidomaru."
I turned back to the sixteen year old. He looked oddly at me for killing a "teammate" of mine, but I digress. "Sorry about the interruption, but I have to take care of some loose ends within the group..." and with that, I teleported away.
Deiara-
"That's nice of you Jess, but what was up with the song?"
She looked over at me. "Whatcha mean?"
"Seems like you were talking about me un." I asked her.
She looked like she wanted to tell me the answer behind the song, but she didn't. Oh well, I was probably just being paranoid. "Sorry, I shouldn't have jumped to that conclusion. I don't know why, but it just seems I've been this way ever since cousin Itachi killed everyone. And there was her..." then it got quiet, "But if it's okay, I can fight by myself. I'm strong enough to after all un," I said, giving her a smile.
The smile seemed odd... It was if I hadn't smiled in a long time. I don't see why though...
Sosha-
Kimimaro was not going to give up. Attack after attack, counter after counter, we matched blows but were both tired. The only difference was I had the curse mark longer than him because his was starting to go back in his body. "So... You were killed correct Kimimaro?"
"No... I died, but because of a disease. Because of my lord though, the disease is gone and I'm alive again. I won't let you kill him," he said stubbornly.
His mind had been warped. It had been warped since he was a child though. The Kaguya and Kuma were ally clans, so I visited him often. I would normally talk to him and give him food, but he'd never take it. He hated that his mother left him there... in the darkness... in a cage... where everyone could see his pain in his clan, but did nothing to help. "Your purpose could be more than that though. Orochimaru gave me this horrid curse and he-"
"How could you say that about him giving you such a gift?!"
"HOW'S GETTING YOUR ENTIRE FAMILY SLAUGHTERED BEFORE YOUR EYES A GIFT?!" I shouted at him.
Kimimaro stopped and looked at me. "THAT BASTARD KILLED EVERYONE! HE KILLED MY TWIN SISTER BECAUSE OF THIS THING! I WAS SUPPOSED TO DIE! NOT HER!"
I took my mist headband off and showed it to him. "This village is our home! Why do you not see that bastard's cruelness?!"
Kimimaro was furious at my words. He didn't want to hear them. "YOU SHUT UP! HE WOULD NEVER DO THAT! YOU'RE LYING!"
He turned his hand into a sharp bone, intended to peirce my flesh, but Kimimaro stopped and fumbled to the ground. The bone broke apart and Kimimaro held his head. He may not have seen it, but I did. Orochimaru's curse mark was taking its toll on him, but unfortunately, he was paying for it with his life. "Good bye... Kimimaro..."
Kyuubi-
Something in my gut just didn't feel right. There was a darkness near. Yeah, I couldn't train more. Something was happening. I nodded to Suki and we transported back. I looked around, what the hell?! Shukaku was talking oddly and what the fudge was up with the barrier?! "What the hell is with that disco hippie voice!?!" I shouted at Shukaku.
He turned and smiled. Shukaku was eyeing me like a little kid would eye a piece of candy. "Shukaku, what the hell are you doing?"
Shouldn't have asked. After that, I jumped out of the way as a hand tried grabbing me. I landed a few feet away and took my shirt from where it was hanging and put it on. "What's gotten into you?!"
"You're my prey..." was what he responded.
He wanted to eat me?! Was that all he kept around me for? But he's not acting like himself... Is it a possibility this wasn't him? No... It was Shukaku, so D. was right? He couldn't be!... Could he?
My head started to ache and I fell to my knees. I was literally on my fours and I was changing back into him.
D. Kyuubi-
"I may be greatful that Shukaku managed to release me, I'm not going to die at his hands."
I took over for Kyuubi and transformed into my giant fox form. Tails flew in the wind. "Kyuubi is my kill, not yours. When I let a lowly dark demon like you push me around."
I also looked down at Hachimata. "Hello Dark, I sense your presence..."
