Tsuki no Tenshi, Yume: Enounter, Ikashi Uchiha
As instructed on the scroll, she headed to the border of the village of darkness, however, was very hesitant. She had been to the village once before with Satsugai, but something suppressed her chakura greatly. Hopefully that would not happen this time. Surely whatever it was must have passed. She cautiously crossed the border, her hat held low so no one would see her face. The trees above blotted out whatever light possible and when she went further into the forest, she formed her small amount of chakura, to be able to see. “I can’t stand this … why Satsugai sent me here is obviously beyond me.” She sighed with frustration.
She dimmed the light in her hand for a moment as she leaned against one of the trees. She then took notice of the trees around her seemed to be the same. “Genjutsu.” She muttered in irritation. “I don’t need this now. I just want to get this done and over with.” A kunai was thrown, but without looking she formed a barrier between her and the kunai, easily protecting herself. “If this is all you have, then be gone. I want nothing to do with you.” She warned as she glanced down at the kunai. She then noticed it had a paper bomb attached to it and she quickly leapt back. The explosion sounded and forced her back, causing her to fall on the ground. “Ngh …” She grumbled from the pain on her back. She sat up and rubbed her lower back. “Not funny in the least …” When she glanced up she saw a figure with short black hair.
She stood, a little fazed by the pain in her back. He remained silent glaring at her. She could tell he was not impressed nor in the mood to be messed with. “Mind I question why you attack me? I had only the intention of passing through.” “Akatsuki are not allowed in this village” She glared harshly and removed her hat formally. “I’m Tsuki no Tenshi … Yume.” She responded calmly. His eyes narrowed. “Leave.” “I will not.” He disappeared before her eyes and reappeared, hitting her wrist and forcing her to stop the flow of chakura to her hand, and the light went out. She felt a knife pressed to her throat and she immediately stiffened.
“Leave or there’ll be one less Akatsuki member in your group.” She looked down and eased up for the moment. It would obviously be about a minute before she could use chakura in her right hand again. She then felt the blade cut her collar and she winced. Her chakura quickly spread though to the wound and healed it a mere few seconds.
“A medical-nin.” “Obviously, however, I can tell from the way you’re treating me, you have something against the akatsuki?” He did not respond and she sighed. “I believe you’re coming with me to the base.” “I do not take orders from someone in your ranks.” He shoved her forward and she stumbled. “But, you can try to defeat me and force me to go. I doubt you’ll be able to.” “Then I will not hold back.” She responded with a lax tone. “I will surely outlast you.” She remarked. “Then you fail to see and already sealed your fate.” The wind started to pick up.
She swiped a large form a light into the air and many forms of fireflies came from it. Floating, illuminated bombs that would set off if anything touched it. Then, she made a small hand motion that formed three birds of light and they came darting toward Ikashi. He leapt back and the birds quickly followed him. Of course they would’ve followed. Unlike weapons, they were chakura based and were being controlled. He dodged them and stepped back, noticing that they were forcing him to go to where there was a large concentration of the fireflies that wandered about. He allowed the birds to strike him, only she saw that his body took the form of many crows and disappeared. She did not move, usure about his whereabouts since the genjutsu surely fooled her.
From her left, she saw a fire technique, Housenka no jutsu, (Mythical Firebird jutsu) come at her and without any movement or expression, the fireflies gathered and formed a partial barrier that protected her, but without noticing, Ikashi came at her and grabbed her by her forearm, making an attempt to strike her. She took the hit and was shocked that someone actually hit her. With no hesitation either. As a reflex, she brought her hand up and her light cut through his shoulder like a blade, forcing him to release her. She stumbled back and now, she we surely ticked off. The partial barrier took the form of a blade that she ended up trying to attack him with. Again, the “wounded” clone disappeared.
“You can hardly discern illusions and you consider yourself a shinobi?” “I am not a shinobi.” She answered back with a tone that gave the hint, she had had enough. She was obviously through toying around. She wanted to get it over with and finish the mission already. But this fight was not something to take lightly. And Uchiha like himself, already put her at a disadvantage. Like with Itachi. She then was caught off guard with another clone had twisted her arm behind her back and she winced in pain. “L-let go.” She demanded in a harsh tone. The real Ikashi approached her with a kunai in hand. She stood still and glared at him. “Why won’t you simply concede to the Akatsuki? Itachi and Madara were both in it. I would have figured someone like yourself would’ve more than willingly come.” She remarked in a calm tone. She already had something planned out to counter whatever he was planning to do her in with. "There was no need for me to be in. I saw what father saw when he was in it and disliked their mission. The only reason Madara was interested in me was because of Miyabi. I share the same bloodline as Uchiha and Miyabi and he only wanted the seal beast of Miyabi but unfortunately his quest for that power caused his own death for mother wasn't to happy with his goal." He grips Miyabi's sowrd. She watched his eyes carefully. "Then, if I'm right, you're dying, yes? If what you say is so, your central nervous system is failing. Especially your sight if you're anything like your father." Ikashi then closes his eyes only to reopen then with the Sharingan activated. "I'll ask one last time. Leave or your life ends here." Ikashi slowly placed his index finger lightly on the temple of his forehead mimicking one of Miyabi's habit/technique. The clone that was behind her whispered in her ear before she reacted. "Bang!". She merely flinched, expecting some sort of harm and stared dully. "I'll leave, on the condition of you coming along." She answered in a lax, but annoyed tone.
He shook his head and turned to leave. The clone disappearing. She observed him carefully and eased up. "I can heal you." She offered before he had gone off too far.
"Stubborn like Itachi. You really are his son." She answered. "There is no point in you dying of blood loss. I can prevent you from dying for some time."Again he refused and disappeared. "Stubborn Uchiha. They're all the same. Rather waste themselves than assist." She muttered in minor annoyance. She picked up her hat and put it on. "So long as the scroll tells me to go further, I have to carry out what Satsugai asked me to do anyways." She reminded herself. She opened the scroll, approaching the abandoned village. She read the instructions at the bottom so recognize she needed to get a scroll from here. She didn't know what the scroll was, but only that it was needed. She wandered further into the village, looking around carefully. It was until she felt a light tug, followed by a harsh tug on her hair the violently pulled her and she fell to the ground, him peering over her. "Ow! Son-of-a! LET GO!" She angrily shouted. He closes his eyes only to slowly reopen them "mangekyou sharingan." she was brought into the world of darkness. There was a huge void she was unable to see anything even if she brought forth light but there was a noise that echoed. "Release me! You're going to kill yourself using this!" She shouted.
Suddenly a swift strike from a sword cuts her arm followed by high speed strikes followed by a voice. "Death is absolute freedom. He is prepared to die since there is no other out come. No need to worry about him for you will shortly feel the pain of a thousand years." An image came to her and it was that of Miyabi with a smile on her face as she begin her assault. "I already have pain that no wound can suffice for. What you do to me, I could care less." She answsered in strain, not even bothering to heal the minor laceration. "What freedom is gained from death? For what reason would he die?""Then you'll share his pain." a stab to her chest as her sword drives into her heart. She moved in closer and whispered in her ear "The moment he was born he was to die. It is the curse of this bloodline. Because he's a hybrid his life span is much shorter. Even using this technique here only hasting his death. The freedom of death releases one from the pain of life because as a shinobi, what you are you are born to die for you have no control when you are going to die. It is in that moment of death you see something you'll never see nor witness when you are alive, freedom. Living for him only brings pain because his life as said is fading due to what he is. Power comes with a hefty cost." Miyabi pulls the sword out and punches her sending her flying back also breaking her arm. "Ngh ..." She used her other hand to wipe the blood from her mouth. "Then you know nothing of my country. I as the Tsukino Tenshi am to spare others. And given that which no other medical-nin has. I can easily prolong his death. Even if it shortens my own life span. That is my purpose. To spare those who I see deserve it. Also ... even damage you do to me, it'll take a long time for anyone to kill me. Even if it is someone of your skill level. Because I still have alot of chakura in reserve." She stood and brushed herself off, wincing slightly from the wounds, but the chakura was still healing her in the process, without her having to use any jutsu.
"You fail to see beyond death. The value of life. Sadly, that makes for one to be so weak. Much like yourself and Itachi's son. ONLY those who life for a purpose much greater than themselves can they understand happiness and have more power than they would, fighting for themself." She responded solemnly. "You who is so young understand little but you entertain me. You as a Tsukino Tenshi will only speed the process rather than help him. The only reason he lives even now is because of me. I live within him. The only way to save this bloodline, his life is only by another full bloodline member to be cast inside but if you want to be foolish and help the boy then be my guest, you'll only speed things up even you being a Tsukino Tenshi. Now lets have some fun shall we." she lets off a kind smile. "I have no time to waste with you." She responded as she easily healed all of her wounds. "But go ahead an amuse yourself. I already know how this will end up."
"Oh?" she says as she sits down. Yume was then snatched and brought straight up in the air. Miyabi looks up at her as Yume is now in the mouth of the Ancient tailed beast of Miyabis. "If you truly want to save him then you should of left as you were told. By you being here forces him to react, and those reaction cost him but by being stubborn you yourself are bring death. Even this technique though you are brought into the void shortens his lifespan by the second and by you refusing you have wasted viable time. Though if I was in the outside in which that would happen if he unsheathe that sword of mine that he carries in which he would if you still refuse thus shorten his life span and my kill him I would kill you here and now but the only thing I can do here is." she snaps her finger and the beast begins chewing on her as if she was food.
"Disable you for the time being. Until next time Yume chan" she smiles as Yume was brought out of the void and back where Ikashi had her hair. He then with a violent pull tosses her aside. "Ngh ..." She muttered in pain as she rubbed her head. "So much for this mission being easy." She grudgingly mentioned as she sat up, somewhat tired.
Ikashi left eye started to bleed as he now drew in closer towards Yume. "Don't you dare harm me." She defensively and quickly responded when she glared at him. As Ikashi was walking towards her a Kage Bushin grabs her from behind locking her arms from moving and Ikashi stops and again from the clone "Bang" as it whispered in her ear but this time it was followed by an massive explosion. She was startled and a violent light quickly destroyed the kage bushin, forming an opaque barrier between herself and him. "Stubborn." Ikashi now closes his eyes as more blood started pouring from them. The wings parted a bit, she peered through the barrier. "Do not be so quick to toss your life away. What is of so much value that you try to keep me from this village?" There was no answer. There was a secret that he could not tell and being that she was not a native she was already targeted as a enemy. "Now to end this little game." She slowly opens his eyes and the reddish color of the sharingan started changing into a silver color. The barrier immediately closed and she formed a few hand symbols. His sharingan completely turned Silver. "Incorrect move." he said as he is able to see her move way before she acts them. Ikashi then grabs Miyabi's sword and whispered. "Since you're urging to return to the living to kill this vistim I shall grant you this forthcoming yet again in trade for life." "A life for a life? Why would I grant my life to one who does not even know the meaning of it? What will you even do if you were given the chance to live?" She answered, her chakura tinting a gold color.
Ikashi smiles as Miyabi took over his body as her sword is unsheathe. "You misunderstood Yume chan. He wasn't talking to you. He giving his life in exchange for bring me out thus in the long run will only shorten his lifespan as said." Miabi stretches and cracks her knuckles with a smile. The chakura unfolds back as wings, her hair was now white and her eyes were violet. Staring vaguely as though in a trance. She signaled for Miyabi to come at her. Not within a half second Miyabi fluidly appeared in front of her
"Careful what you wish for before someone or something gets harmed. How important is that scroll to you?" She says with a smile now placing a arm around her not aiming to attack as of yet. "Very important if Satsugai is the one to seek it. Me personally however, it means nothing." She responded without any fear. With a calm smile she then "How about we make a trade since you are of interest now you have this Satsugai come and attempt to take it from me. You as well as I know in your state and chakra level you'll only end up dying if you try taking it from me. Now." She faced Yume the other way and they were several miles away from the village close to Yume's H.Q. "I hope to see this Satsugai next time. I'll be waiting." Miyabi releases her and she dissapeared. "Tch." She fustraitingly responded as she lost her form and her eyes and hair color returned to normal. Her chakura disappeared and she fell back. "This is beyond a NUISANCE!" She kicked the ground and looked up to the now clear sky. "Satsugai will have to do it himself get that scroll it's so valueable. I'm only supposed to gather other members." She muttered to herself.
To be continued ...
