Chapter 9: The storm before the storm
Konohamaru stifled a grunt from the extra weigh on his body, trying to remain still as Sasuke cut the ropes with a Kunai.
“Foolish little brother..”
Sasuke jumped and looked back to see Itachi standing there. He rolled to the side to avoid Itachi’s hand reaching to grab him. But by the time he came to a stop on his knee, Itachi was behind him again. “You hurt him. I’ll kill you!” Sasuke shouted, throwing the Kunai in his hand behind him. Itachi shifted to the side and avoided it, grabbing Sasuke’s hand before he could pull it back.
Sasuke growled angrily, turning around with another Kunai in his hand and driving it to Itachi’s shoulder. He was surprised when his brother melted into a pile of water. ’A copy’ Sasuke’s mind screamed, but it was too late. Itachi already had him by the neck from behind.
Itachi started to squeeze down on Sasuke, but stopped when he felt a knife going into his back and a small arm wrap around his neck “Let him go!” Konohamaru yelled, Sasuke’s eyes widened when he realized what the boy had just done.
“No! Get out of here!” Sasuke shouted as best he could with someone holding him by the throat.
With the distraction as cover, Sasuke pulled another Kunai out of his holder, driving it back into Itachi’s stomach. Itachi grabbed his arm before he could reach him, with a sigh he tossed Sasuke aside, sending his body through a tree.
Itachi lifted Konohamaru off his back easily, holding him in the same grip he had Sasuke. He didn’t want to hurt the boy too much for Jutsu purposes, he had no choice but to use Sharingan. He looked in Konohamaru’s fearful eyes, attempting to use the technique but finding something strange.
Itachi looked over at Sasuke pulling himself to his feet, the Sharingan Jutsu was already in effect on Konohamaru. Acting as a barrier from Itachi‘s. The only other person that could have done this was…Sasuke, ‘He learned to use Sharingan since the last time we fought…?’
He didn’t think it was possible, learning a Sharingan Jutsu in only a day, most of which he was unconscious during. He didn’t know his brother had so much determination…But it was a Jutsu and a Jutsu could be released.
Itachi tossed Konohamaru aside, knocking what little air he had left in him out on landing.
Konohamaru held his neck and took deep breaths, filling his deprived lungs. ‘Sasuke… We have a chance. If I run now, and you run now. We can get away!’ Konohamaru shouted, using his connection with Sasuke through the Sharingan. But he got no response at all, and that uniquely Sasuke feeling changed into one that reminded him of Itachi, only worse.
As much as he hated feeling this way, he started to wish that the connection could be broken. This side of Sasuke felt…cold and painful. Konohamaru looked over to Sasuke who was glaring at Itachi with a furry Konohamaru had never seen anything close to.
“Sasuke!” Konohamaru called out to him, but Sasuke didn’t know or care that he was there. Konohamaru climbed to his feet, watching Itachi walk toward Sasuke. Sasuke charged at him, throwing a punch at his brother. Itachi caught his fist easily, pulling Sasuke in by it and sending a counter punch at him.
Konohamaru came out of nowhere, throwing himself in-between them, taking the punch for Sasuke. The boy screamed in pain, still managing to do what he set out to do by throwing his head back and hitting Sasuke in the jaw. “Sasuke!” He shouted, falling to the ground. Hoping that would snap him out whatever he had fallen in to.
“Konohamaru!” Sasuke shouted, pulling away from Itachi and run toward the boy. That seemed to do it for the most part.

Neji stood with heavy breaths, his back against a tree. He used his Byakugan to find Kiba, standing in the same position 60 feet away at the edge of his vision range. Kisame was out in the open, leaning on his sword clearly tired, waiting for either one of them to make a move.
Kiba could tell Neji was using Byakugan even though he couldn’t see him. He also knew Neji was good a lip reading, so he mouthed out a message to him. “Just in front of Kisame, I had Akamaru lay a trap. I don’t think he can see it, but if we came lead him in to it…”
Neji checked around for the trap, having to pour a little more Chakra in to the Byakugan to see under the thin layer of bushes, undergrowth and leaves to find a set of 4 explosive tags place in a box formation. If Kisame got with in that formation…
‘Huh?’ Neji felt a drop of water fall on to his nose through the trees, the wind had picked up a lot since this fight started, and it started raining now also. But it was barely more then a sprinkle, most of it didn’t even make it through the leaves. He ignored it, pulling a shrunken out of it’s holder, it was time to do some leading.
Neji jumped out from around the tree, diving to the side and tossing the shrunken at Kisame. Kisame lifted his sword. Knocking it away and jumping at Neji, Kisame was quick, despite the fact that his Samehada was so large and heavy. Kisame lifted the sword above his head, bring it down on Neji.
Neji blocked with his Heavenly Spin, sending a rush of Charka outward that protected him from the attack.
“Gatsuuga!”
Kisame looked upward and saw two blasts of swirling energy rushing at him from a now revealed Kiba and a mimicking Akamaru by his side. Kisame turned quickly, lifted his sword to block his attack easily.
That’s when something strange happened, Just when Neji stopped using Heavenly spin the sky roared with thunder and a bolt of lighting came flying down. This was obviously not ordinary lighting, it usually would have struck the tallest thing like one of the trees. But this lighting was drawn to Chakra.
Neji stopped just in time, making the largest source of Chakra Kisame because of Kiba and Akamaru’s Gatsuuga. The bolt struck him, sending thousands of bolts of electricity in to his body and knocking Neji back. Kisame yelled in pain, crashing through the tree branches and falling to the ground just as the soft sprinkle of rain turned in to a heavy shower.
Kisame landed, falling into the center of the laid trap and setting off all 4 tags at once. An explosion followed, sending a blast dirt and smoke in to the air, all of it quickly washed away by the rain.
When the dust cleared, there was nothing left of Kisame…
“What the hell was that!” Kiba said, running over to Neji while his gaze shifted around nervously. Neji looked toward the sky, using his Byakugan to see through the trees, the first thing he saw was a massive amount of Chakra coming from the east, Neji could hardly believe this was a storm he was seeing.
A unusual storm of course produced unusual lighting.
“There’s an enormous amount of Chakra swirling around in the sky… It’s inside the approaching storm.” Neji told him, sitting up a rubbing the back of his head.
“Is that a bad thing?” Kiba asked even though he already knew the answer.
“It’s a very bad thing, we need to get back now.” Neji commanded promptly.
“Damnit! I hope we have time to go and find Sasuke.” Kiba rubbed his forehead, now wishing he had brought his coat with him. Akamaru still settled on his head and ignored the rain.
“If we reach him quickly we may.” Neji explained, obviously sounding distracted and Kiba easily noticed it.
“Neji? Is it that bad?” Kiba asked, Neji looked at him, silently giving his answer. He’d never seen that much Chakra in his life, it easily outlined the full frame of the storm. And the storm was huge, half the size of Konoha. If the lighting didn’t kill you….
! - ! - !
Sasuke didn’t stop, he picked Konohamaru and held the boy tightly in his arms. He still wasn’t fast enough, Itachi was in front of him by the time he did so. His first priority was to get Konohamaru out of here, he didn’t want to fight anymore. But Itachi wouldn’t let him go with out one.
Sasuke dived to the side but Itachi grabbed his neck and pulled him out of the air. He looked in to his younger brother’s eye and used Mange Sharingan, easily breaking through the jutsu already in affect. But he didn’t sever the connection completely, and that suddenly worked to Sasuke and Konohamaru’s disadvantage.
Konohamaru ended up being hit the same attack through it.
! - ! - !
! - ! - !
“Sasuke!” Konohamaru yelled, his head hurt and he could see nothing but darkness. He managed to hold back his screams of pain long enough to call out to him again. He felt Sasuke near and he fought in his mind to get closer. “Sasuke!”
“Konohamaru!” Sasuke called out, fighting to use his Sharingan to get closer. “AAA!! It hurts!!” Konohamaru shouted out. “Hold on! You…you can do this. Just keep…keep listening to my voice.” Sasuke said, the pain visible in his voice.
Konohamaru yelled at the top of his lungs, hearing Sasuke letting out weakened cry while trying to stifle them. It was something about this situation that set Konohamaru off, he felt the same anxious and furious feeling he felt when that dead demon fox was pinning him down.
Only it was worse this time because Sasuke was trapped with him.
! - ! - !
! - ! - !
Chakra rushed through his body, more then he felt before. It instilled it self in his muscles, increasing his strength enough for him to break out of Sasuke’s hold and send a kick into Itachi’s stomach, forcing him to release the Jutsu.
Sasuke fell out of his hold, panting heavily, he noticed it was raining now, he hadn’t felt any of that when Itachi was using the Sharingan on him. He looked over at Konohamaru who was bursting with Chakra like before. It even seemed to surprise Itachi.
This time was different, he knew what to do with it now. “Konohamaru RENDAN!” The Boy shouted, It seemed that it at lest promised to be an interesting thing to watch.
Some how Konohamaru had retrieved his scarf from Sasuke and clinched it tightly in his left hand as he charged at Itachi with increased speed, wrapping it around his neck in it’s usual spot right before jumping at Itachi.
Itachi didn’t move, wanting see what was going to happen.
Konohamaru sent a kick to the side of Itachi’s head, still going forward and sending his knee in to Itachi’s face. Konohamaru then grabbed his neck, rolling over Itachi’s head and curling in to a ball.
The long scarf filled with Chakra, the cloth becoming very much solid as it stuck Itachi in the back of his head repeatedly while Konohamaru rolled in the air. The boy landed with an uncharacteristic agility, coming to rest on one knee and sending his fist into the ground.
With that, all of the Charka he’d build up was unleashed unintentionally, rushing in to the ground and exploding in a rush of flames and flying mud.
Konohamaru was sent flying outward, away from Itachi and Sasuke. Luckily he was caught by Kiba, who turned on his heal and ran the opposite way. “Where did you learn that!?” He asked confusedly.
“I don’t know, it just came out that way.” The boy replied.
Sasuke followed quickly, catching up with a hasty Kiba and Neji. “Sasuke, we have a problem.” Neji started. And he wasn’t just talking about Itachi.
