Chapter V: Devastating Circumstances
KOB
lifts his head up just enough to see Mikel lying there twitching on the ground,
bleeding. Mikel gasps and blood spurts from his mouth. He clenches his chest
tightly and begins shaking trying to rise to his knees. KOB pounds his fist
into the ground and begins to rise slowly to his knees, then his feet. He
wobbles a little bit before maintaining a stable defensive position. Mikel is
still struggling to rise to his feet. The laughter of Dei and Deathy echo
through both of their ears. KOB grabs his head and shakes it violently wishing
the laughter would stop. Mikel finally rises to his feet before a sudden
downward force plants him back to the floor. He screams in agony and blood
begins to trickle from his eyes. Could this be the end. KOB takes a look at
Mikel and a frown forms of his face. He slowly limps over to his wounded
partner. Step by step, the charka pressure begins to get heavier forcing KOB to
wheeze and soon fall to his knees. KOB is determined to make it over to Mikel
so he begins crawling on his knees and hands. As he reaches Mikel, the same
downward force plants KOB on his face. Dei and Deathy appear in front of both
of them and simultaneously lift both of them into the air.
As
Deathy holds KOB in her hands and Dei holds Mikel in hers, large gasps come
from each of the ninja. KOB attempts to wrap his hands around Deathy’s arm but
she belts her hand across his face causing him to do limp. Mikel shakes his
hands furiously and Dei brings her knee into his abdomen causing him to double
over in her grasp gasping for air. Things seem pointless. A large boom echoes
through each of their ears. Dei and Deathy turn their attention to the large
smoking hole in the wall to the left of them.
Charka
levels begin to rise in the room exponentially. As the smoke begins to clear
up, three ninja silhouettes are clouded. The middle ninja wipes his hand across
the air and the dust settles revealing Q, Clair, and Bano. Dei becomes enraged
at the sight and tightens her grip on Mikel’s throat. Bano disappears and
reappears behind Dei elbowing her in the rib causing her to release Mikel and
back up a few feet. Deathy tosses KOB into a wall and retreats with her evil
partner. Q signals Clair forward and she rushes towards Mikel and lifts him
onto her shoulder. She then walks over to KOB and lifts onto her other shoulder
and retreats from the scene leaving Q, Bano, and the 2 evil Kages.
Q walks
up to Bano and pats him on the shoulder. He stares directly at the duo and
shakes his head in disbelief.
“You
know you two, it’s not nice to attack your vice-kages and kill innocent ninja.
You know we are going to have to take you back to the Kage’s summit , by force.”
States Q.
Dei and
Deathy snicker and prepare themselves into a twin fighting stance. Q and Bano
look at each other and shrug and lower themselves into an odd battle stance.
The charka levels begin to rise and aura’s begin to emit off of each ninja. The
walls start to shake. Q soon disappears and reappears in front of Dei and goes
to deliver a crushing punch to the jaw.
Dei however grabs Q’s hand with ease and tosses him to the side. Q catches his
balance in mid-air and slides on his feet back to where Bano is still standing.
Q looks at Bano with unease and Bano smiles. Deathy runs up to Q and smashes
her elbow into his chest sending him flying backwards into the wall. That was
so fast Q didn’t have time to react. This was going to be tough.
Bano
begins hand signing before he is quickly interrupted by Dei who head butts him
in the chin causing him to fly up and hit the ground with a large thud. Bano gets
up quickly and recoups over next to Q rubbing his chin. Q leans over to Bano
and whispers into his ear, Bano begins nodding watching the two carefully. Bano
begins to handsign again and Dei begins to rush at him, before she gets to him
Q stops in front of her and delivers a bone shattering blow to her left arm
causing it to go limp, she yells in pain and backs up hiding behind Deathy who
now is furious. Her aura began to grow and grow. Q rushes up to her and throws
a wild punch to her chest, Deathy easily evades it. Bano snickers and Deathy
looks at him as he sends large rocks at her. She was too busy avoiding Q’s
attack she didn’t realize Bano was still hand signing. The rocks crush into her
smashing her into a wall and falling to her knees.
With Dei’s
broken arm and Deathy’s crushed torso, they were in no position to continue
fighting, they let their guard down and suffered the consequences. Although Q
and Bano didn’t go unharmed either. Bano’s jaw was making a very serious
cracking noise. Q had a hard time breathing. The two regrouped and shook hands
as they walked slowly up to the two evil kages. As they approach, Q handsigns
and traps them both in a sand sphere. Bano hand signs soon after and hardens
the sand with mud and rock around it. Dei and Deathy screech and scream to be
let go but Q and Bano smile and begin walking out the hole back to Kage’s
summit.
Saba,
Des, and Clair all sit at their respective seats at Kage’s summit awaiting for
the return of the 4 other kage. KOB and Mikel are beating treated by the best
medical ninja in the land a few rooms over. Des slams his fist down on the
table.
“Damn!
Where are they? I’m not what you call a ‘patient’ person. They need to hurry up
so we can beat the evil out of those two traitors.”
“Relax
Des, we don’t always resort to violence. We are going to dissect the real
problem and take things from there. After they get here and we meet, you can go
to the training room and do whatever it is you do.” Replies Saba.
Des
looks at her with some disgust in his eyes for her careful planning and just
snorts. Clair looks at Des and rolls her eyes. She knows his type all too well:
strong, block-headed, narcissistic. She looks over at Saba and just casually
waves her hand down signaling her to ignore it. Des looks at Clair and grunts
at her too before slamming his fist down on the table again. The large doors to
the temple burst open and in walks Q followed by the two trapped ninja and Bano
in the rear. Saba, Des, and Clair rise quickly to their feet and greet Q with a
simple bow. Q signals them to sit down and he signals Bano to put the two evil
kages in the middle of the giant Kage table.
“Des, do
me a favor and trap these two in a water prison.”
Des nods
and hand signs. The two sand,mud, rock covered ninja become enveloped in a
water sphere immobilizing them further and blocking out their screams. Q nods
and Clair and Saba who have already done something similar to this before.
Clair summons a fire prison and locks the water spheres inside. Saba hand signs
and sends lightning bolts through the water spheres causing small electrical
charges to shock the prisoners. Q smiles and takes his seat as well as Bano.
“Ok
then. We have caught the two ninja that were killing innocents. As you have
already seen, its Dei and Deathy. They are possessed. So we need to figure out
how to break this curse. Any ideas? And NO Des, hurting them wont help.”
Des
grunts and folds his arms across his chest. Q smiles at him and look around the
table. The many colors of the prison the two are in are bright. Blue, Gray,
Red, Brown, Purple. Saba raises her hand but quickly puts it down and begins
blushing. Clair looks around in bewilderment. Q sighs and gives Des a cold
look.
“Ok, let’s
try Des’ method. Let’s beat the evil out of them. Everyone, meet in the
training area in 5 minutes, prepare your best non-lethal jutsu.”
Each
kage nodded and Q used his charka to hover the two trapped ninja and walked
towards the training room. Des looks at each of the kages and snickers.
“Hahaha.
Told you. Des is a man of deception. Catch y’all in the training room.”
Des
rises from his seat and runs his hand through his hair slicking it backwards.
He licks his lower lip and walks into the corridor leading towards the training
room. Clair slams her fist down on the table and her chakra level rises a bit.
Bano looks at her and nods her to calm down. They all rise from their seats and
make their way into the training room.
As Des
and the others enter the training room, they see Dei and Deathy separated from
each other, still restrained. Q signals them to walk into the middle of the
arena.
“Ok,
here’s what’s going to happen. Saba, Bano, and Clair, you three will take Dei. Don’t
hold back but don’t kill her got it? Des, you come with me.”
All three nod
their heads and begin walking over to Dei. Q and Des walk over to Deathy and
stare at her oddly. Bano leads the pack of his group and begins his hand signs.
One after the other in rapid succession he belts them out. He stops and stares
at Dei.
“Earth
Style Jutsu: Corroding Boulder!”
Bano’s
voice echoes through the arena as all the other kages stare at him. Boulders
begin dropping on Dei and she begins screaming. Each boulder hits and melts
causing a serious of cuts, and burns. Bano goes on for about 10 minutes before
he slightly slumps over and the Jutsu ends. He looks at Dei and she hisses at
him. Bano limps to the side of the arena and slumps down on the wall. Clair
steps up and cracks her knuckles. She begins hand signing quickly possibly
faster than Bano. She is concentrating hard. Sweat beads form and drip down her
face. She soon stops and a dead silence befalls the arena.
“Fire
Style Jutsu: Volcanic Disruptor!”
Pillars
of flame shoot out around Dei and begin to circle together forming a small
flame tornado. Flames spew out from the top and Dei is sucked into it. She
screams and yells before shooting out the top on fire and hits the arena floor
with a thud. The flames die off and she begins to smoke. Clair winks at her and
gets face to face with her. Dei turns her head slowly towards Clair and snaps a
bite at her. Clair flinches back and shrugs and Joins Bano over in the corner
and sits next to him. Q and Des continue to look on while Saba steps up to the
plate. Saba takes a long hard look at Dei and smiles. She starts her hand
signing slowly which is odd for a Lightning Ninja of her caliber. After about 5
minutes of hand signing she stops and throw her hands up in the air.
“Thunder
Style Jutsu: Lightning Dragon’s ROAR!”
A large
lightning dragon shoots out from her hands and flies towards to the top of the
arena. The dragons roar pierces the ears of each kage and he plummits down
towards Dei. He closes in and opens his mouth and crashes straight into Dei.
Her body begins flashing and screams of agony and pain cry out from her mouth.
The lightning soon disappears leaving a crispy Dei. Saba walks up to her and
lifts up her chin. Dei is crying. She doesn’t make any snaps at Saba just lies
there crying. Q begins clapping and walks over to Saba and Dei. He waves his
hand over Dei and all restraints disappear. Saba and Q lift up Dei and her eyes
begin to shift around. In that very instant, her mouth opens wide and a large
energy ray shoots out. Her eyes begin to glow and she starts shaking. Q grabs
her by the neck and slams her into the ground. The energy ray circles in the
air and turns into a demon silhouette before disappearing.
Q
signals Bano, Clair and Saba to take Dei to the ER quickly. They nod and rush
her off. Q turns around and looks at Des and Deathy. Des has his hand running
through hair snickering at Deathy. Q looks at Des and scolds him with a look.
“Des, we
are doing this one together. I want you to prepare a Water Vortex Jutsu. Im
going to combine a Sand Burial Jutsu into that. Hopefully the magnitude of both
jutsus will purge this evil spirit from her. Lets do it.”
Des nods
and hand signs quickly. Within a few seconds he stops hand signing.
“Water
Style Jutsu: WATER VORTEX!”
A large
water vortex appears behind him as he begins to laugh manically. Q looks at him
and giggles a bit. He lifts his hand into the air and closes it.
“Sand Style
Jutsu: Sand Burial!”
A large
amount of sand gathers in the air. Q directs it towards the water vortex and
they begin to combine. The water soon turns from a clear blue to a murky brown. Q signals Des to throw the vortex at
Deathy. Des nods with a large grin on his face and throws his hands forward
sending the vortex straight at Deathy. AS the vortex crashes into her, the same
energy from Dei rushes out mid-attack and disappears. The vortex continues to
vigorously slam into Deathy, her screams become louder. Q signals Des to stop
the vortex but Des is to into it to listen. Q rushes at Des and tackles him to
the ground causing the vortex to die abruptly. Des stands up and brushes
himself off and begins walking out the arena. Q sighs and lifts Deathy into his
arms. He begins walking towards the ER and looks towards the top of the arena.
He closes his eyes and lets out a large sigh..
KOB
lifts his head up just enough to see Mikel lying there twitching on the ground,
bleeding. Mikel gasps and blood spurts from his mouth. He clenches his chest
tightly and begins shaking trying to rise to his knees. KOB pounds his fist

to deliver a crushing punch to the jaw.
