A glimpse from Chapter 10:
Quoting Saburo “Trying to take back what you could not protect eh, Hatake - Kakashi?!”
Whatever it is that Kakashi had to protect but was not able to is still unanswered, isn’t it? Then, we found out from last chapter that Saburo’s group was after this thing called “Crown of Australis”. A magical – whatever – object that allows a user to absorb someone else’s power and transfer it to him.
The key to the said object is with Ruirein who happens to be Arashi and is Saburo’s niece! OMG! Naruto’s group had a battle encounter with Saburo’s spy – Ryu – who stood up as Captain Riusu. His transformation technique is yet unknown and must’ve been in a different level since none of the team was able to sense a different chakra.
Let’s move on to that same day and watch our characters play in a game that fate continuously played with them!
Weaving Destiny 11: Fate’s Continuous Play; Confusion!
“I got you now!”
Arashi surprisingly emerged from under Kakashi charging with her sai. Sensing her approach from the underground, Kakashi quickly waved a meter away from her to avoid her sai targeted to his throat. But he eventually rushed back to her seeing Saburo’s drilling crystal spear heading right in to him and Arashi in front of it.
‘Damn it! This guy’s careless. Is he planning to kill his niece?’ Kakashi said in his thoughts as he dashed back to Arashi.
“Out of the way!” he exclaimed in warning. With his left hand, he grabbed her by the waist and his right hand released a large amount of lightning to crush the ice crystal spear.
“Raikiri!” Lightning flares met up with the drilling spear causing a huge explosion sending trees, rocks, dusts, and pieces of crystal ice into a blast.
The collision between the two techniques sent both Arashi and Kakashi spinning in mid-air while Saburo was thrown off 20 meters away from them hitting his head and disturbing his concentration. Kakashi landed on his back breaking Arashi’s fall and immediately shifted positions with her, his back against the explosion providing her cover.
“Huh?!” Stunned with how fast things went on, Arashi went blank as the flashes of lightning once again brought her blurry visions of the past. This time, she sees herself in a similar situation where what seemed like a 13 year old jounin was also giving her and two other friends cover from an explosion of a lightning technique.
“Oi! Stay focused!” Kakashi gently shook her back to reality. “Are you okay?”
But Arashi stayed still and appears lost in an empty space as she continued to wonder about the visions flashing back at her. At the back of her mind, she sees herself weak, all worn out with not a single memory of her past. Then came in Saburo and introduced his self to be her uncle. He did something to her – like he was inside her mind, showing her what happened to her and how someone summoned the lightning phoenix and killed her friend – her friend who has been protecting her with all his life.
‘He killed your friend with a strike from the lightning phoenix, my beloved niece.’ She remembered him (Saburo) say.
“Listen, to me Arashi.” Panting between his breaths, Kakashi looked intently into her eyes. “You have everything all mixed up here.” He continued with a firm voice.
“Get off me!” Confused with her vision and her uncle’s words, Arashi bellowed, her voice cracked in confusion and anger.
THUD!
“Ugh!”
Kakashi moaned in pain as Arashi plunged her knees to his groins. She then slid off from under him and jumped up to her feet.
“Having doubts killing me?” Kakashi said, knees on the ground, and head slightly held up to face Arashi.
“Y-you could’ve plunged in your sais instead, you know.”
Astonished, Arashi’s brows crossed realizing that his words were true. He was right, if she really wanted to kill him, she could’ve just thrust in her sais, infused solar energy and burn him. That was the perfect chance for her to kill him, but why did she felt like she could not?
“You don’t know anything about me so don't brash out and think that I would not kill you because I would not hesitate to do so!”
She exclaimed striking Kakashi with a kick from her right foot, sending him off crashing with his back into a boulder five meters away from her. Debris and dusts blew off as Kakashi’s crash created a crater into the boulder.
Arashi dashed off with him after kicking him, leaped up making a 360 degree turn and slashed a diving round house kick on his left jaw.
“Argh!” Groaning from the pain, he held on to his strength.
Arashi continued in rage and hit him with every strike that she knew –straight punch blows, elbow strike, back fist strikes, palm heal attacks, kicks – all these and more.
And yet, Kakashi did not fight back nor did he dodge any of them. Resting his back on a tree where he ended after Arashi's last blow, he was determined to bear them all knowing that the pain he bears with each of her strike could not equal with the pain he had caused her. He misjudged, miscalculated. His failure caused her to lose everything even almost losing her life. Yes, she died just as everyone thought and he was responsible for it. No one ever knew what happened that night except him, her and Saburo.
“Earth Style: Pillar Bullets!” Arashi called out a technique where pillars of hard earth went flying off toward Kakashi.
“Wind Style: Speed flush!” To increase the pillars’ speed and create a bigger impact, Arashi infused this technique in combo with the previous earth technique and gave Kakashi five direct hits to his abdomen.
“Fight back you fool!!!” She screamed in frustration after seeing him not dodging any of his attacks.
“Fight back, I said!!!” She dashed on to him with her solar blade ready to hit his heart. Yet, seeing him all beaten up did not seem to ease out even a pinch of her pain.
‘Why is he doing this?’ She asked herself. ‘And why do I feel like he does not deserve any of this?’ Realizing that aside from not fighting back, Kakashi did not dodge any of her attacks, Arashi slowed down toward him getting more and more confused.
“W-why are doing this?” Arashi fell on her knees instead and withdrew from striking Kakashi. Her sword plunged in between his feet. She looked up to him; tears welled down her eyes while she tries to understand everything that’s happening before her.
‘Still a crybaby, huh – Arashi?’ Kakashi gently said at the back of his mind, wishing he could take her into his arms the way Tsunade or The Fourth Hokage comforts her way back then.
“You’re all confused, Arashi. The Lightning Phoenix was for you. The bloodline limit was too strong for you to handle. The Lightning Phoenix was summoned to help in sealing it down, not to kill anyone else.” He said. And that seemed to have confused her more.
“LIAR!” She screamed, stood up and plunged her sword just a little above his left chest – avoiding a vital point.
“Ahck!” Kakashi knew she wouldn’t hit him in a vital point so he did not bother to dodge. But the pain brought about by the solar heat from her sword does not seem easy to hande.
Confusingly staring at him, Arashi followed on to hit him with an elbow strike locking him by his throat as he started to fall off.
Before she could give him another strike, Kakashi grabbed and pulled her hard and close to him with one hand while the other grips the solar blade with her.
“You must stop listening to that voice inside you and listen to me!” With his face an inch apart from her, Kakashi firmly said. Their eyes meeting each other’s, his – gentle, and hers – burning with anger and confusion.
“Kakashi-senseiii!” Naruto called out and stopped in shock with the others as they see Kakashi, pinned to a tree with Ruirein’s solar blade pierced right above his left chest.
“Nii-san!” Naruto whispered to his self as he tried to figure out what was going on.
“What is happening here?” Sakura seconded while Sai and her stands behind Naruto.
Skye keeping up with them, halted and stood puzzled beside Sakura.
“Ugh!” Kakashi gritted his teeth in pain, his mask stained as he coughed out blood when Ruirein twisted the sword.
“Hold it right there!” Saburo said with a commanding voice approaching the group.
“No uncle, I will kill this man this very instant and get my revenge!” Ruirein exclaimed. Her voice cracked as tears continue to stream down her weary eyes.
“He just took away everything that I have had. I lost my family, my father murdered before my very eyes, I lost my clan, my village and just as I was getting a brand new life, this man took it all away in an instant.”
“It was not meant to be like that.” Kakashi wearily continued in a low voice, trying to give her a better understanding of that tragic night. “As calculated, the lightning phoenix's power was too much for me handle at that time. It drained out every last drop of my reserves.”
He paused and looked into her eyes with pain hoping that he was able to get to her but, there seems to be no hope. With head bowed down he submitted his life to her.
“If you don’t believe me then, kill me.”
“You asked for it - I WILL NEVER BELIEVE IN YOU!!!”
Ruirein pulled out her solar blade to once and for all strike Kakashi to death.
CLANGGG!
The sound of two blades meeting each other rang through the air as Naruto's kunai met up Ruirein’s blades just before it hits Kakashi.
“N-naruto - - “ Kakashi whispered as he sees him standing in front of him, shielding him from Ruirein’s strike.
“Nii-san –“ Naruto glared back at her in anger but holding it within him as he was still not sure how things have gone this way. “Enough! I don’t know what’s going on here but one thing’s for sure – I will not allow you to kill Kakashi-sensei.”
“Save your strength for the last battle, Arashi!” Saburo scolded her.
“Huh?!” Everyone cried in surprise.
“A-arashi ? – “ Naruto’s mouth fell opened in confusion as he heard the other man call her Arashi.
“Yes, Naruto!” Arashi slowly stepped back as tears of confusion, revenge, and anger welled down her fiery eyes.
“I have fully recovered my memory and I will not let this chance pass. This man took away everything I had and even tried to banish me from this world!”
“I will get my rev--!”
Before she could continue, Arashi frigidly stopped, stunned and motionless. Her eyes glowed as she started to act like a puppet.
“What the –“ Naruto stammered for words as he tries to figure out what he’s seeing.
“A puppet technique?!” Sakura gasped in terror.
“No, I believe it’s more than that.” Sai said, perplexed.
“Damn it Saburo! What have you done to her!” roared Kakashi in anger.
“What did I do to her? Didn’t she just tell you? You just killed the man she loves with your lightning phoenix.” Saburo said and everyone else is as confused as Arashi is now.
“It brought her to an endless misery that all she lives for ever since that day I triumphed is tokill the man who killed you! – Hahahaha – Ahahahaha!” Saburo’s evil laugh echoed through the air as he once again claims victory over this game of fate and destiny.
“Pitiful Kakashi. It seems that fate doesn’t ever want to stop playing on you. Ahahahahaha!”
“You bastard!” Kakashi rushed toward him but stopped when Arashi called out a special technique.
“Solar wind blast” Arashi started and called on a followup technique, “solar flare combo!”
“Damn it! – wind and fire combo - - Naruto!”
Kakashi called out and immediately, Naruto understood what he meant.
“Fuuton, Rasengan!” Naruto whirled on his rasengan and stepped closer to Kakashi.
“Suiton, Hahonryuu (Water element, crashing rapids)!” Kakashi said simultaneously with Naruto.
“Gufuu Suika no Jutsu (Water Typhoon Vortex Technique)!”
Naruto and Kakashi combined wind and water to counter Arashi’s wind and fire combo.
Okay, the setting happens within the Naruto Shippuden era so yeps, I preferred to stick within the characters existing techniques as much as possible. Like Naruto and Yamato's wind and water vortex combo. xd
Well, will it be enough to burn out a special fire and wind technique? Let's check out in the next chapters
Also, up next on chapter twelve is the mystery behind Arashi’s connection to Kakashi! So don't miss it.
