Battle!! Fight to the Death-------------------------------------

Jumping from rooftop to rooftop Sauske rushed about over head. He had lots to do before the enemy came. Finally arriving at his destination, Sauske stopped running and stood staring at the shadows around himself. 'Alright time to put Naruto's plan into action.' Sauske created seventy shadow clones, and sent them sprinting across Konoha’s roofs. They each had to watch a twenty meter radius. 'Kakashi should be just about finished with his placements as well. Which means that we will have over one hundred sharingan users watching the town. Plus Naruto said he was going to be constantly watching for any intrusions that come up too close to the evacuated villagers. So we should be fine. I just have to make sure that none of these bastards get by me or my clones.' Sauske though as he stood staring out towards the main gate. Suddenly Sauske's senses were alerted. A person had entered village. He was moving through the shadows, trying to get to the evacuated area. 'To hell with that!!' Thought Sauske as he let the clone closest to the threat sink into shadow. In seconds Sauske could feel the threatening bloodlust die away. With grim satisfaction Sauske began to sense about himself once more. Tuning in on another bloodlust, he sent the clone nearest to it again to wipe it out. In seconds Sauske could feel the bloodlust disappear. As Sauske stood there monitoring the status of targets, he felt one of his clones die. Then another.

Two in a spit second. Who ever they are their good, but my chakra has been spread out fifty times.' But as he continued to sense the loss of his clones Sauske was getting pissed. 'He's just mowing them down. I will kill this bastard when I find him.' Sauske seethed inwardly as he felt yet another of his clones die. Then hearing a sound behind himself, Sauske dove out of the way a split second before a sword drove it self into the place where he was just standing.

"Oh so this one's actually got some sense in it. But no matter all it is a clone. Shadakage please let me deal with this. I would love to finish the work I started while working on Itachi." A cold voice spoke for behind Sauske.

"Very well. Do as you please Kara. But no this. If you die in battle with this boy, I will personally kill every last member of your family starting with your children." Anotehr even colder and more sinister voice spoke.

"Understood." The man named Kara replied.

Sauske spun around to see a ninja lean forward and withdraw his sword from where he had impaled it into the roof.

"Try to give me some entertainment clone boy." Kara spoke dryly as he lunged towards Sauske.

"Oh you'll get more then that. Did I hear that right. You killed ITACHI!!!!" Sauske shouted as he jumped over the blade. The moving to the left he punched Kara in the chest. Staggering back Kara only laughed.

"Aye. Yeah I did, and to tell you the truth he was weak. It's a wonder why we ever had him as part of our organization." "Oh and its TOO BAD what happened to your HOKAGE. I heard he was really good friends with you Uchiha. Oh well." Kara sneered as he moved his hands into a ready position on his blade. Then diving forward he swung down. But Sauske had already read the intentions of Kara and dodged to the left. Then with a savage kick to Kara's face he sent the other ninja tumbling off the rooftop.

"I'm gonna kill you , YOU BASTARD!!!!!!" "ITACHI WAS MINE!!!!!" Sauske screamed as he dove off the roof. Kara sensing the bloodlust coming from the clone...no this had to be the real Uchiha, otherwise it wouldn't have reacted as quickly. Trying to roll out of the way in time Kara rolled to the left and just barley managed to miss getting hit by Sauske’s Chidori. Retreating his hand from the stone pavement Sauske charged another shot. He could use chidori fourteen times in a row. There was no way the man who killed his brother was escaping with his life. Suddenly Kara was back on his feet and sinking into the ground.

"I see so you want to escape from me that way do you. Well two can play at this game. Sauske forming the same hand signs called out. "Shadow movement." Then he sank into the ground faster then Kara could and rushed to where the half sunk Kara was hanging in the darkness. Viciously Sauske drove his chidori into the man's abdomen. Above ground Kara stopped sinking into he ground and while still half submerged, started to cough up blood.

"H..ow? I only just used the technique. How could yo..u use it so quickly and fluidly? Even for a sharingan user that should be impossible.” He said as he coughed up more blood.

"I'll let you in on a little secret before you die.” Sauske spoke as he began to rise out of Kara's own shadow. Then while standing completely over him Sauske bent down and whispered into the Kara's ear.

"The six Hokage is alive and well. We tricked you and your Shadakage."

Then staring straight at Kara, Sauske mustered as much hate as he could. Then in a cry he shouted. "Amaterasu!!"

And watched as the black flame spewed forth from his hands. In seconds Kara was engulfed. The flames burned so quickly that Kara didn't even have a chance to scream out in pain. He simply was burned alive. Sauske standing straight up, remembered his promise to Naruto to notify him if the Shadakage was around. Reaching down into his Ninja pouch he with drew his special Kunai. Then flipping it straight into the air he stood back.

Meanwhile--------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------
Naruto rushed past enemies in a blur, cutting each down as he moved onward. 'I wonder how the others are doing ?' Naruto thought as he drew one of the Uzumaki special kunai and swung it, neatly cleaving three opposing ninjas in two. Then diving forward Naruto rushed down and struck an enemy ninja who was about to kill one of the Anbu special members. Startled the Anbu looked up to see his unseen foe's head fall off, as though it was cleaved by the wind. Then feeling a rush of wind go by, he could have sworn he heard a voice speak. "Keep it up your doing great. Your lord Hokage is proud of you."

Naruto continued to assist wherever he saw a possible fatality for his own side. Then sensing a bloodlust appearing close to the Evacuated citizens Naruto cursed and flickered to where the bloodlust was originating. Appearing silently behind a ninja who was slowly sneaking up on the Anbu member who was guarding the Evacuated villagers Naruto drove his Kunai straight through the ninja’s chest. The shadow ninja let out a startled cry before he died. Startled the Anbu leapt towards the sound but found only a kunai sticking out of a dead ninjas back. Returning to his post to puzzle over the matter he did not notice the note attached to the evacuation shelter door, until he was standing right in front of it. Taking it off the door he read.

''' Your doing fine. Don't worry about that one but keep on your toes. Your lord hokage has faith in you.'''

Startled he looked around wondering who had posted it but finding no one, rolled it up and stashed it into his pouch. Naruto sighed and continued on. His arm ached from all the stabs, and slashing it had been doing, so he switched to the left, to give his right a break. Diving into a fight Naruto took out three more unseen foes, this time saving Shikiamru from their wrath. As Naruto drove his kunai into the unsuspecting back of an enemy ninja, he felt one of his special kunais being tossed into the air. Flickering immediately to the person who threw it Naruto found himself staring at a worn Sauske.

"Report." Naruto asked.

Startled Sauske jumped back and drew his kunai looking around.

"Naruto??" He hissed.

"Sauske report. Why did you throw the kunai?" Naruto asked again more urgent this time.

"Jeese you startled me. Where are you?? Never mind. I witnessed the Shadakage heading towards the hokage’s office. Kakashi's over there, he may engage Kakashi. I think you should hurry Naruto he left about three minutes ago. In a battle to the death against a weakened shinobi that can be fatal." Sauske said He finally noticed Naruto.

"Your right. Thank you Sauske." Turning Naruto noticed the charred form of a person burning still with black flames.

'Must have been the unlucky guy to fight with Sauske.' Naruto thought as he rushed towards the hokage's office.

As he rushed towards the hokage's office a sense of dread started to fill Naruto. 'What if Kakashi had been forced to engage the Shadakage. He was ruthless and was willing to slaughter the innocent people we have being safeguarded.'

Naruto arrived at the office just in time to watch in horror as three Shadakage each dove and drove their kunai into the chest of Kakashi. Then as he fell to the ground bleeding the weakened Kakashi did something the Shadakage wasn't expecting. He smiled. He smiled and pointed towards nothing.

In reality He was pointing towards Naruto.

"KAKASHI!!!" Naruto bellowed as he blew past the startled Shadakage and picked up his sensi. Then Naruto flickered to where the evacuated villagers were. Startled cries of alarm were met with his appearance. To everyone else it looked like a floating Kakashi had appeared out of thin air. "Iruka!!" Naruto bellowed and in seconds a startled Jounin stepped from the shaking crowd. Naruto lowered Kakashi to the ground. "Iruka take care of Kakashi-sensi. He's hurt pretty bad. I have unfinished business to do with the bastard who did it to him."

Iruka hearing his voice was so startled he almost screamed. "Na.Na..Naruto!!???!!"

"Aye. Yeah. I know great rejoicing for all of you who thought I was dead.. Sorry for the scare. I had to fake my death to make our defence a lot better. But no time for that now. We're winning out there, but if the Shadakage gets a hold of anyone other then myself they will die. I need to be off to fight him. If there are any medic ninja's present, please look after Kakashi's wounds.” Naruto said as he looked about.

"Naruto!!" Shouted a voice. Naruto turned to see Sakura striding towards the wounded Kakashi.

"I see. So you decided to help here as a defender. Good. But be careful Sakura, Sauske has already been pushed to the point where he had to use the Amaterasu. I know that these guys are tough."

Then stepping back away from Kakashi Naruto flickered back out to the Hokage's office. He found the Shadakage sitting in the hokage's seat.

"You. You dare to sit in that seat with your unworthiness." Bellowed Naruto.

Startled the Shadakage jumped to his feet looking around widely. Drawing one of his kunai he took a step away from the seat.

"That’s much better! Now how would you like me to kill you Shadakage. You come to my village and invade my people. You come with the intent to kill off not just the shinobi, but the innocent lives that we have evacuated. So HOW should I kill you. Maybe it will be like your men did me. A sword through the back, into your heart, and lungs. Or how about I gouge out your eyes like you had them do to Itachi Uchiha. Sauske was looking forward to killing him you know. He wanted to kill him and avenge his families death. But YOU decided to take that away from him. And believe me he was pissed. I hope the guy you left fighting him wasn't important cause Sauske roasted him alive with Amaterasu."

Swinging wildly the Shadakage lunged about the room, striking at the walls and floor.

"Where are you. WHO ARE YOU!" He bellowed as again and again he struck at nothing.

"Why I'm the Sixth Hokage of the Hidden leaf. Naruto Uzumaki" Then laughing Naruto drove his own kunai into the leg of the Shadakage. Then flickering to the other side of the room, Naruto activated the seal on the blade. The second the Shadakage reached out to see what hit him Naruto recalled the kunai back to its holder.

"I'm toying with you and your men now Shadakage. Why should I let you off easily. Did you personally assassinate Tsunade and her lover Jiraiya, or did you send one of your lackeys to do it for you?"

"I did it myself." The Shadakage said indignantly.

Naruto withdrew two kunai and drove them into the Shadakages arms. Screaming in pain the Shadakage batted at the invisible force that kept hitting him.

"That was for their lives. How many others have you killed today, you murdering scumbag. How many of our ninjas have you dispatched. Kakashi will make it even though you tried tour best to finish him off. I will not let you kill another person who is close to me. And this entire village is now my family. YOU WILL NOT HURT MY FAMILY!!!" Naruto shouted as he drove his kunai gain and again into the Shadakage from every angel possible. Soon the Shadakage’s fine clothes were nothing more then mere shreds of clothing clinging to his being. And he was bleeding horribly, from all the wounds Naruto had inflicted.

"No more. I beg of you!!" Pleaded the Shadakage as Naruto continued his onslaught. Then Naruto withdrew to the other end of the room where the hokage's chair was. Sitting in it he turned it to face the Shadakage.

"You will either make peace with me today, or I will kill you where you stand right now. Your choice. I am the hokage of the hidden leaf village. And even without me they seem to be doing fine. I will reveal myself to only my allies. If you do not swear peace with me, then I shall bring forth the dragons of hell and let them feast upon you. NOW CHOOSE!!" Naruto bellowed slamming his fist on the Hokage’s desk so hard that it splintered in a circle where his fist hit.

Standing shakily the Shadakage got to his feat and began to laugh.

"You fool, I have yet to show you my true power. And as he said it the Shadakage began to change, His face became snout like and his clothes ripped from his being. And he grew. He grew and grew until he burst from the hokage's office. And as he grew, hair started to sprout and grow from all over his body. * tails burst forth from his skin, and soon stood a giant eight tailed wolf. Snarling it roared. "Where is your bravado now. You have run like the scolded dog you..."

He never got a chance to finish. Naruto had leapt into the air and smashed his fist burning with nine tails chakra into the jaw of the gigantic beast. Naruto was once again satisfied with a bone jarring *CRACK* as he broke the beast jaw.

Then jumping onto the roof top nearest to the beast he shouted. "Fool, you may house that creature inside you, but he is no match for US!! I’m sure your men told you that I am the Kybui’s container. We have joined together in body and mind. The Kyubi and I have made our selves one. I am now the Kyubi, and he is I. YOU CANNOT DEFEAT US!!!!" Naruto shouted as he resealed the armour of the Uzumaki. Then re-sealing it he placed it down so that the beast could clearly see it was Naruto that stood before him Naruto once again shouted out. "You still have a chance. Make peace with me here or I WILL KILL YOU!!!"

"Ne...v..er!!!!!! the wolf tried to scream, through its broken jaw and slashed at the spot where Naruto stood.

Flickering to the rooftop of the building to the left of it Naruto shouted out. "SO BE IT!!!" And then Naruto began to glow. Naruto began to glow a golden color as he felt the spirit of Kyuo and his own merge and become one. Then drawing forth the sword he had sheathed to his back he slashed the air shouting.

"THE SEVEN!!!"
