Thanks guys! I realy like all the support.

Unfortuneately, all good things do come to a end. I will most likely leave for the military by the end of the month, so i am thinking of wraping this little project up by the end of this month.

Belive me, i don't want to stop it either.

“You know what he is to become, right Catcher?” the other figure said. “Yes, Howler, I do know.” She said in her gruff male voice. “Then heal me, and I can help you as well.” “Ha, no chance, not even in a million years. You would take all the credit for yourself and have me executed. I know you, Howler.” Catcher said the first and the second in her business voice, and the third in her most manipulative voice, her own. “I have been wanting to get back at that Twilight for so long, I don’t care about Itasuske anymore.” Howler said. He then gave one of his screams that gave him his name. “I…..am in…..so much…..PAIN!!!” Howler barked. “If you will be under my command, and never question me, I will heal you to the best of my abilities.” Catcher said. “Grrrrrrrr. Do it.” Howler resigned himself. “Perfect”

Itasuske was still having a hard time doing this. He had tried for so long, but he just couldn’t get the hang of it. He was walking on water, that went straight up to a tree, that required him to use a clone while he was perpendicular. Every time he got to the top of the tree, he concentrated on the target, which distracted him from the tree, which made him fall into the water. Another day of Nakita’s training. “Come on, wimp, If Naruto could do this, you can to. Just think of everything at once. It is not a question of concentration, but of awareness! Try it again.” Itasuske got up with a few ragglesnazes and futz’s, but he did go to try it again. He made his way across the water, climbed up the tree, and got to the target. He then still felt the water beneath him, the tree at his feet, and the target right before him. He made a small hand sign, and Goblin came out. His feet still on the tree, he told the small dragon to go hit the target. Goblin did as he was told, but before he could, he noticed Nakita, as lovely as ever. Goblin took this opportunity to go and try for Nakita again. He crept slowly on the ground, thinking that he was being real sly. His head hit a piece of metal. “What the?” was all he could manage before Nakita said “Fore!” and he was blasted three football fields away. “I told you never to try.” Nakita said as she went back to see Itasuske. He was standing triumphantly with his clone, surrounding the target. “How’s that?”

Kakashi looked on to see Nakita and Itasuske get their stuff and leave the place they were training. It was amazing, that the daughter of the snake and the snake’s creation were in love. Well, he thought to himself, it was either that or they would kill each other. When they started moving, he stepped out of the bushes. “Well, now that kiddy hour is done, you want to train with me, Itasuske?” Itasuske was flabbergasted. He was about to be trained by the legendary Hatake Kakashi! How could he refuse? “Is that ok with you, Nakita?” Nakita, miffed about that last comment about her training being “Kiddy Hour” looked understandably annoyed. “Only if I can look on to make sure you don’t stretch him too thin.” Kakashi looked at her. “Fine, but there are going to be things that will be extremely difficult for him, you understand.” Nakita fired right back. “If I feel he is being pushed too hard, then I will stop it.” Who was this woman, telling him what to do? I guess arrogance is a inherited trait, he concluded. “Whatever. Itasuske, come this way. Kakashi led them to a abandoned shed.

“Now, I am here for two things. One is how to use your Sharingan properly. Because you are not a true Uchiha, you will be more like Me with your Sharingan, meaning you can use it mostly to copy people.” Itasuske understood the reasoning behind this, so he simply nodded. “The other, well, I think you know.” Itasuske’s eyes sparkled. “The Chidori?” “Yes, but I will also teach you how to make it your own, so it will no longer just be a Chidori, but something much greater.” Nakita knew this day would come. Itasuske in the future talked about his training with Kakashi-sensei, but it was always hard seeing him progress. She knew with every passing day, her time with Itasuske grew shorter. She knew that she needed to marry him, eventually. But when? He was about 19 right now. That meant that they only had two years. But that would be enough time. He would come back to her, because she remembered his leaving from the time of the Taken. When he did come back from that journey, she would be waiting for him. The end of the day came, with Itasuske learning the Chidori in record time. “You were a much better student than Sauske. Well done.” Kakashi then disappeared, leaving Itasuske and Nakita to their own devices. “So, back to the Inn?” Itasuske asked. This was the Itasuske that Nakita loved to see. He had a purpose, a dream, a idea. Nakita smiled, kissed him, and turned towards the sunset. “Catch me if you can!” She yelled as Itasuske ran after her.

[dragonjinchuuriki3]

not work best work but it was good. Sometimes it's better to have a short part here and there, not just have a thing made up of long things.

[xravenx]

aw how sweet...lol... shame it has to some to an end..

[Chronos]

Alan: "Yeah, i know two parters are annoying, but they build suspence and have people come back!"
Itasuske: "Plus you ran out of space to put things in, so you HAD to make it a two parter!"
Alan: "shut up, they don't need to know that!"
Itasuske: "It's the truth."
Alan: "Yeah, yeah......"

“So, this Itasuske fellow, is he even a challenge?” said a old familiar voice. Sauske came into the clearing where the note told him to. “I think he will be more than a challenge for you.” Soulcatcher said, materializing out of thin air. “Why do you say that, you were able at capture and torture him no sweat. Why am I listening to you?” Sauske turned and started walking away. “Don’t you want to see the only man with both Byakugan and Sharingan?” Soulcatcher said in her normal voice. That caught Sauske’s attention. “Both?” he asked. “Yes, both, and he has been trained by none other than your old sensei, Kakashi.” She added extra venom to that last part, knowing that she had just reeled in her own secret weapon. All according to plan, she thought.

Itasuske was doing his normal routine. Making sure the dojo was in working order, cleaning messes left behind from previous battles, making sure that Jariah wasn’t doing any “research” around the premises. Once he finished that, there was not much else to do. Maybe it is time to move on, he thought to himself. He knew what they had going on here was good, but he missed the open road and all the uncertainties that came along with that freedom. Maybe he should run that by Nakita first before he took any action. So, when they both got off work (They both swore that Noah had them get off at the same time everyday because he knew they had to be together.) Itasuske asked her, “You want to go for a walk? How about in the woods right over there?” Nakita brushed the hair out of her face. Her face was now common place for him, but it still knocked him out how beautiful she was. Then she smiled. “Ok, sounds like fun after all the sitting I have done today.” As they reached the woods, Nakita was the first one to talk. “You think we should get outa here?” The question caught him a little off guard, but recovered fast enough to make a good answer. “I was about to ask you the same question! What are your reasons?” Nakita stared at him for a second, almost looking surprised that he had asked that question. “Look at me, Itasuske, I am the daughter of the snake. People will start recognizing me even if I do transformation. That is why this is the longest stay I’ve ever had with so many people.” Itasuske considered this. He had always thought of her as the best thing ever, even better than sliced bread. Why couldn’t other people see the same? “Well, I have a wanderlust that needs to be quenched, somehow.” Itasuske said. “Then tomorrow we will both give our two weeks notice and then…..oph.” She seemed to be hit in the gut. Itasuske looked around, and saw a shadowy silhouette. “Catcher, why you….” Itasuske started to go into a fighting stance, and the figure came out of the shade. Sauske came face to face with Itasuske, almost mocking him with that cocky grin he had. “So, you are the Infamous Itasuske? Tell me, why don’t you have a last name? Daddy didn’t want you to know where you were from? It seems so childish.” He looked at Itasuske’s eyes. “So it is true, you do have both. This should be quite interesting.” He jumped backwards, and landed in a classic Uchiha fighting stance.

“Why would he want to soil his hands in garbage like you, Sas-gay U-cheat-ha?” Nakita said with all the subtly of a sledgehammer. “You, like your father, underestimate me. I have true strength, one that does not rely on other people.” Itasuske looked at Sauske. Was this something that would have happened had Nakita not come along? Would he have been this selfish, this cocky as this Uchiha was? Thank goodness that he did not turn out this way. “If you call what you have strength, then I will be the one to test that out.” Itasuske came rushing in with his Byakugan activated. He knew that Sauske could most likely predict his moves, but he wanted to lull him into a sense of security. He made a few quick strikes, which Sauske easily dodged, as expected. Itasuske ten got hit in the face with a straight kick, which sent him flying. That much was not expected. As he hit the tree, Itasuske remembered all of his training, all the lessons that he had learned. He got back up, and said “Is that all? Come on, Kabuto hits better than you.” That got him mad. “Fire style: Phoenix Flower Jutsu!” a bunch of fire bolts went after Itasuske. “Rotation!” all of them bounced off. So, Sauske thought to himself, He knows the Rotation. So much the better. When the smoke cleared, Itasuske was standing in the same spot, but this time with a different stance. “Seriously, you have a long way to go if you want to beat me with just that!” Itasuske goaded Sauske. Sauske then rushed Itasuske. But this time, Itasuske had the upper hand. He had his Sharingan active, and with the Dragoon fighting style, quickly turned Sauske’s strength into his weakness. “How, how can you do that? You only have one, while I have two!” Sauske exclaimed. “I may only have one of your precious eyes, but it is also a combination of skill that I have acquired.” Itasuske said, looking straight at Sauske.

While this was going on, Nakita was watching the two boys fight. Why am I always in the background? She asked herself. I can contribute, but would that mess with the timeline? She just sat, and when Itasuske hit the tree, she was tempted to go and help, but saw him get back up before she could do anything. When Itasuske turned Sauske and made him look like the sissy girl that he was, She called out “Way to go Itasuske!” But was pretty sure he couldn’t hear her. Itasuske was warm and gentle and all out good when they were alone, but when the fighting broke out, he was in his own little world. Nakita had resigned herself whenever he fought, but knew that he would come to her whenever she needed it. Then, as she was contemplating, a kunai flew right in front of her face. Attached to it was a note. It read “I am going to kill your father. If you value his life and Itasuske’s, meet me at the waterfall.” Nakita looked around, saw no one, and thought. She really couldn’t care for Orochi the way he was acting lately, but she did care for Itasuske. She quickly set out to the only waterfall she knew.

Sauske reeled back from another failed attempt to break the Dragoon stance. “Well, I can see that this is getting nowhere, so I will come back another time to see if anything has changed. But for now…” he took out his Katana. “I’ll leave you a little gift.” He came up at a weird angle with his sword. Itasuske was able to counter it, but barely. Then he noticed a cut across the back of his hand, “That wound will scar, but will never heal. I have seen to that.” Sauske said as he put his sword back in it’s sheath. “Now, I have more important matters to attend to, so if you will excuse me.” Then he disappeared. Itasuske then turned to where he knew Nakita was, but didn’t see her. A cold chill went down his spine and made him sick in the stomach. What had he done? He quickly went to that spot and all he could see was a kunai with a note. What waterfall? Where was she? He quickly went to Noah. “We need to start searching for Nakita. Now.” He showed Noah the note. “I will get Twilight and all my staff right on it.” Noah said.

Meanwhile, Nakita had come to the waterfall. She saw her father on the ground, slumped over, unconscious. She pulled out her bow, and waited for the worst to happen.

[dragonjinchuuriki3]

wOOt!!! There you go!

[xravenx]

more suspense! yay!!

[Noah Hyuga]

Yee and Haa!! lol

[Chronos]

Itasuske was worried. He had been searching all the waterfalls in the immediate area, but there was still no sign of Nakita. He searched high and low for everything that could even be considered a waterfall, but didn’t find it. He heard that the others; Noah, Twilight, and Kaori didn’t have any luck as well. Where could she be? It was getting late, but he would not give up. She could be in danger or could be dying. He couldn’t tell what was happening, curse Sauske and himself. He had let her slip away. He vowed to himself that this kind of thing would not happen again. He searched the next likely target, with no luck as usual. He needed to find a better system. That struck a bell. Better System. It clicked, and he knew where to go.

“You see, Nakita, I can disable that fool of a shinobi that your father was. It will be easy to take you out.” A deep bass voice said. “Ok, Howler, show yourself, so I can pick those scabs off your face with this.” Nakita drew her bow. The Howler dropped from a high tree with a tremendous *THUD*. He chuckled. “You are the fool that Catcher said you would be. You think you can take me, by yourself?” Nakita snarled. “I am MORE than a match for you, you half hearted fool of a shinobi. Kaori should have finished you when she had the chance!” Howler reared back and made on of his famous howls. “You will be captured today so that Itasuske will come for you!” So that was it, Nakita thought. She was going to be bait for a trap. Not on her watch. “We will see.” she said. When she said that, a arrow pierced into the Howler’s shoulder.

Itasuske heard the howl coming from the place he thought to go next. The irrigation system. Water, which came from the nearby mountain, fell into the irrigation system. So it was a literal water fall. When he got there, he saw Nakita shoot the arrow into this strange man’s shoulder. This man looked a lot like Soulcatcher, except that this man was quite a bit bigger. He had the urge to shout to support Nakita, but thought better of it when he considered that he could distract her. If she really needed it, he was there to help her out. Otherwise, this was her fight. This is going to be great, he thought to himself, I’m finally going to see Nakita fight! “Itasuske, I will need your help, eventually.” he heard Nakita’s voice in his head.

After Nakita had fired her bolt, The Howler rushed her. She quickly shot another arrow into his other shoulder, then folded her bow and split it apart, creating two short swords. She jumped over Howler and attached chains onto the arrows in his shoulders. “What are you planning to do with these? Trap me?” He made a hand sign, and the chains broke off. “Nope, but I did plan you doing that.” She also made a hand sign, and the small pieces buried themselves into Howler’s face, creating a metal mask. “Wha? Huh? What is this?” he said. “It is now 11 o’clock. You know what that means?” She got a huge hammer and hit the metal mask 11 times. The mask fell off, and The Howler couldn’t hear. Plus he was severely disoriented. She got her two swords and buried them into Howler’s chest. She then kicked them deeper into his chest, and linked chains to them. Howler struggled, but he couldn’t do much because of what Nakita had done before. She swung Howler around with the chains, and slammed him into the ground with a sickening *crunch*. She was panting, that last attack had taken a lot out of her. She saw that Howler was not moving, so she went and pulled her blades out of him. She was walking away, and didn’t notice he had gotten up. He was chanting slowly and softly, so she wouldn’t hear.

Itasuske saw that Nakita didn’t notice Howler getting up. Right as Howler unleashed his jutsu, something purplish and snaking through the ground. He jumped down, hugged Nakita close to his body, and did a rotation. The thing reeled and disappeared as soon as it hit the rotation. “What are you doing here?” Nakita asked. “How long have you been watching?” “No time right now, we got this guy to take out.” He pointed to Howler. He looked frightened, Howler was the only on to have seen Itasuske’s wrath, and lived to tell about it. But then that fear turned to certainty. “Right on time.” he said. “Why did you come? I could have taken this guy out, easy!” Nakita said. “But you told me that you would need help!” Itasuske pleaded. “No, I didn’t! I didn’t even know you were here!” Itasuske then realized, he was not in a good situation. Soulcatcher and Sauske both cam put of the shadows. “Hm. Not so tough, are you, Itasuske?” Sauske said. To tell the truth, Itasuske was scared out of his wits. Then, to top it off, Orochimaru got up. “Come, Nakita. If you go with me, you will be spared the fate of this young lad here.” Nakita looked hurt. “You also helped set this up? But why?” Orochimaru sniggered. “Well, to tell the truth, I was offered more power than I ever had. Now come, let us go.” Nakita changed from hurt to defiant. “I will not abandon Itasuske. Not until you can pry him away from me.” They went into their tandem fighting stance that they had worked on. “How cute, the love birds think they can beat us with their silly little fighting style.” Howler said. Itasuske talked to Nakita in a personal thought speech. “We cannot win here. We must go back and regroup with the others. Both of us use speed sound?” Nakita did a very small nod. They held hands, and both were gone.

“Another failed attempt, Catcher, another failed attempt.” Howler said. “It is not the end of this trap, there is still more to unfold. They probably went to the Inn. They will find their friends there, and we will get them all there.” Catcher sounded assured of herself. They all started towards the inn.
