Quickly a left handed male swordsman using a katana with an unsually long blade(24inches) and hilt(8inches), red hair, icy blue eyes, a baggy sleeveless red shirt, and baggy red pants runs beside the female ninja. "Let me join you or you shall die, woman! Just kidding, Remember me? Let's go help out that warrior up ahead."

[Piggle_humsy]

*All of a sudden samuel drops dead*
*No one will ever know why*

(I decided to write myself out because I have lost the plot!
But my death will remain a mystery and people will mourn me for a long long time )

[fantasytiger]

????: you should have not fallowed me

(trunks): you left the clan you did not even say good-bye

????: you know why I left

(trunks): was it because the elders thought it would be foolish to try to revive shorta

????: shorta was a great warrior the legends say he lives within the heart of a brave swordsman with a noble heart

(trunks): that just a silly legend the elders said themself that even if it were true the only one who could bring him out would be the human host.

????: even so he is the only one who can stop the god of elements.

(trunk): then why are you fallowing a bunch of peasents???

????: Shorta's spirit led me to them

~points to the dam were sacther and fallen continue to fight~

????: They call him sacther he left his village to try to stop sayuski god of elements who lives ontop of the Northern
mountain he has been causing floods that has been destroying sacthers village.

(trunks)......................he will surely die

????: I know normaly it would not concern me but there is something about him

(trunks): you think he is shorta

????: why does it matter to you sooo much Naruto

Naruto: it does'nt

(Naruto turns his head amd pretends he does not care but deep inside he is crushed)

Naruto: The clan senT me after you

(the ninja girl reaches for her sword )

????: are you going to try to stop me??

Naruto: ...........
?????:.....WELL!

Naruto:.....no....

(the ninja girl turns and is about to assit sacther in his battle)

Naruto:...MEASUE!!!! WAIT!!!

Measue: what is it Naruto???

[ssjtrunks13]

((You gave me a name? I was hoping you'd do that, thanks. LEt me know if I get this wrong))

I just wanted to say I will folow you until your mission is complete and whatever happens here we've got to make sure Satcher stays alive, if he is killed your mission will have failed and I will live in despair or commit suicide. Oh, I love you. Now let's go get ourselves some action. Naruto charges in with his sword half drawn until he's right behind one of the enemies and kills him quickly along with a few others with his excellent swordsmanship.

[Hero]

Meanwhile...

The battle between Satcher and Fallen was not leaning to either side... Both were fighting with valor as if it meant more than life. The look of desperation on Satchers face was matched by the looks of anxiety on the faces of his party.

Samuel reached for his weapon, as well as the others when Satcher interrupted them

Satcher: Don't be foolish! Stay back... He will crush you, you're not ready to fight him yet.

Fallen: Yet? Old man, you insult me-

Suddenly a sound of metal clashing is heard. And Fallen recoils back as if strucken with a blow

Fallen: You know that he could die saving that bridge, and yet you still try to support his cause?

????: I don't believe in fate and I believe he can save the bridge and survive.

Fallen: I didn't want to have to do this, but you leave me no choice...

Up to this point it has been a mystery what is inside Fallen's satchel, but he reaches back hesitantly, as if he is filled with guilt and doubt. Right as the clip on his satchel is unbuckled, the unknown female ninja shouts...

????: Now NARUTO!

Naruto: Take THIS!

Naruto launched his disgustingly large sword at Fallen, and with sparks the size of the sword magnified and magnified, finally being the size of a large glacier as it crashed down on Fallen. After the impact the sword retracted back to normal size, and Fallen slowly rose to one knee...

Fallen: Why.... does... he... always... do that? *falls over unconscious*

Naruto: Because I'm just that good...

[Hero]

Realizing that Fallen could wake up any minute and use 'Angel', they decided that fleeing the battle scene was a more admirable action

Naruto: You guys get going... Me and Fallen have un-finished business...

The female ninja disappeared into the shadows, and the party continued on their trail, while Naruto planted his sword in the ground, sat beside it, and ate a rice ball...

Fallen slowly rose to his feet... And began to walk towards Naruto. The tension began to grow... When suddenly...

Fallen: Damnit... Why does that ridiculously large sword always catch me off-guard?

Naruto: I don't know... I've used the technique enough times that you could've caught on by now...

Fallen: So you still think you can save the old man and allow him to save the dam? Right now would be the time for me to say, "Fine, when he dies, I'll say 'I told you so'", but the only problem is, if he dies, we have all failed.

Naruto: What I don't understand is, if you still believe in the cause, then why did you leave?

Fallen: Me and her left at the same time, but for different reasons. She follows your ridiculous belief that the old man can survive and save the town.

Naruto: You could've taken Satcher down any time, why didn't you? Are you having second thoughts?

Fallen: I've lingered too long... Carry on with your pathetic mission... You be sure to tell the Femme Fatale, that if she crosses my path again with such techniques, I won't hesitate to put her down.

Naruto: Yadda yadda yadda... You know if you touch her, I'll put you in a pain locker.

Fallen slowly begins to walk towards the brush...

Naruto: You want a rice ball?

[fantasytiger]

the female ninja continues to lead sacther and the party through the woods and outta harms way

Satcher: stop!!!!!

????: what is it???

Satcher: I am not taking another step til you tell me what is going on

(the female ninja stops abruptly )

????: my name is measue I am a shinobi in the clan of tucshik we vow to protect the world from the seven gods of destruction we weild power beyond any human comprehenshion. I left my clan to fallow you sacther because I believe that you are shorta.

Satcher: Who??

measue: Shorta was a legendary swordsman he is the only one who knows how to seal the seven gods of destruction.

(sacther looks a bit confused by it all )

measue: I will gladly explain everything , but right now we have to keep moving for some reason this fallen guy seems to want you dead its best we get you outta these woods and into hidding.

(sacther look a bit wiery but after a long pause he diecides to trust measue and continues running throught the woods Elaine along side of him and measue taking the lead.)

(After a long treck sacther and elaine make it to a cave measue leads on silently)

~Naruto you fool......please be alright~

(finally they hit the back of the cave)

sacther: now what???

(measue begins concintrating)

Measue: REVEAL!!!!!!

(suddenly the wall moves and exposes a huge waterfall in a cavernous area.)

Measue: make yourself at home.

(measue pulls her sword out i have some bussiness to take care of sacther rises to try to stop her but she is already gone)

(just moments later Naruto arrives at the cave to find satcher and elaine making a fire he quickly notices Measue is missing)

Naruto: Where is measue??!??

Satcher: she left in a hurry a few moments ago she did not say were

Naruto: Dam!!!

[Hero]

Fallen was following the trail again, trying to regain fatigue from the fight, when he was suddenly attacked by the female shinobi once again.

He quickly begins to dodge the attacks, although more of the strikes land with his loss of strength...

He manages to withstand her rush with enough strength to leap up into the tree

Fallen: What are you doing!?

Measue: Helping Naruto...

Fallen: *looks around* Wow, Naruto... You have really good stealth techniques because I can't see you anywhere...

Measue: Where is he?

Fallen: We parted paths... You would think that the #1 female ninja of Tucshik would be a little more perceptive..

Measue: I won't let you take the old man...

Fallen: You still think I'm trying to kill him?

Measue: You attacked him, didn't you?

Fallen: Yeah I did... But your vision must be lacking for you not to notice...

Metal objects of a small number clang to the ground, and she quickly notices that they were sleeping darts.

Fallen: I told you that I wouldn't let that old man risk himself to save that stupid town... And I'll do whatever it takes to make sure he doesn't. That includes ridding this world of your existance.

Measue: What do you want with the old man?

Fallen: That is not your business, but you know as well as I that without Naruto, all hope in fighting me is futile.

Measue: You've changed...

Fallen: Everyone changes... Live with it...

Fallen drops and begins to walk away slowly, but Measue still has to say something else.

Measue: That's not what Angel would've said! How would you...

Fallen looks back

Fallen: .....Say her name again, and it will be your last word... I have regained my strength... Your power may match mine, but you have too kind of a heart to risk me destroying this forrest...

His eyes glimmer over...

Measue: Your cause is so clashing with ours, and yet you still avoid combat with us?

[fantasytiger]

Measue: I fallowed you because you know something about sacther

Fallen: like I said befor its none of your concern

(fallen sits in the tree's his massive chest heaving up and down as he takes in air)

Measue: ......I did everything I could to save her

( fallen eyes burn with rage as he glares down mercilessly at Measue he leaps down from the trees , whips his sword out, and holds it inches from measue's throat. Measue remains stiff never blinking. )

Measue: are you going to kill me?

fallen:............

Measue: you cared for her yet you refuse to know how she died and then you left the clan

Fallen: do not begin to think you know me !!!!

( fallen tosses aside his sword and charges Measue with his bare fists striking her several ttimes but measue remains standing never wavering)

Fallen: AS FAR AS I AM CONCERN YOU KILLED HER!!!!

(fallen picks his sword up and swings at Measue without warning Measue moves to avoid the attack but fallen was just a little bit faster and manages to cut her cheek. Measue stumbles back and retreats to the trees)

Measue: the clan sent me to kill her I will no longer hide that

Fallen: an being the obiediant dog that you are you did just that what else do I need to know.

(measue looks down in silents)

Measue:....when she went after sunjin the water god to try to protect that village she went againt lord chi's orders he did sent me to kill her...........

Fallen: Ha!! so the dog speeks out against its master better watch out you do not get scorned. Now come down here and fight me like a shinobi and die an honorable death

Measue: I did not kill ANGEL......you did

Fallen: WHAT!!!!! I shall slice that serpents tongue of your's

(fallen jumps up and slices the tree branch Measue was standing on clean off Measue falls but manges to pull off a hand spring and avoid any real injury Measue throws a dart hitting Fallen in the leg fallen freezes)

Measue: I went to kill her just like chi ordered but when I got there she was already injured I may have been a servant of chi but I have my honor only a dog would kill an injured wormen, but she was too weak to far gone I doubt she relized I was there because the only name she screamed out in her tortured agonizing pain was yours fallen and where were you??? heading back to base oblivious of what had happened I ended her pain by ending her life but I remebered something her head band the one you gave her when she achieved the rank of shadow ninja I took it to return it to you but you were gone

(Measue approaches Fallen and places ANGELS headband around fallens hand)

[Hero]

Fallen takes grip of the band, and squeezes tightly...

[flashback]Angel - Do you ever dream? Sometimes I dream that I could just run away... To a place where... We can just be happy...[/flashback]

Fallen - You used a dart that's... blurring my vision...

Measue - It's not the dart...

Fallen slowly wiped the tears that had fallen on the headband away, and put the band in his pocket

Fallen - ..... The old man can't get too close to the water front... A curse was placed on that part of the cave... I tried to lift it, but I failed... You know of the mage I speak... Be grateful... That's all I can tell you...

Measue - Join us! That's what she would've wanted...

Fallen - Taking grip of his sword It doesn't matter what she wants or would have wanted anymore! I swear on my name, one day I'll extinguish the entire clan, and everything that even holds memories of them... I've spared you fair... Now leave...

[Hero]

Fallen swiftly sheaths his sword and begins to walk down the trail

Measue - Wait! Don't you want to know how she died?

Fallen - I'll find out from Lord Chi...

Measue - You're going back?

Fallen - You could say that... I'll just be... 'stopping by'... to pay him a visit... Measue... Now that you know about the curse, you better not fail... It's gotten too far for the old man to die on us... All seven must survive in order for the sealing to take place...

[fantasytiger]

Measue: the clan or its fate no longer concerns me but if i must pay for the mistakes of the past then so be it, But for right now I must save the future. Fallen I must tell you a secret about chi one that he has kept since the day you left

Fallen: chi has kept many secrets why is this one so significant???

Measue: because it could lead you to the answers you are looking for

fallen:............

Measue: Chi made a deal with the gods he wanted power the gods told him in order to obtain this power you must sacrifice something dear and keep something pure so he did he sacrificed his family.

Fallen: ......killed his family??!??

Measue: yes all but one member his youngest child for you see the child was pure not a week old yet. the gods were apeased ,but instead of impowering him the gods impowered the child. Chi was furious but could do nothing all he could do was watch as the child grew. Chi was not stupid he began to manipulate his child and began to make the child use its powers to help him gain control in return the child was kept close to him until the child wanted to break free. Once the child began to gain a sense of independents he had the child killed.

Fallen: he killed his own flesh and blood for power!

Measue: the truth is befor you fallen consider this a pay back all you have to do is find the fallen ANGEL

(fallen face twisted in confusion as measue dissapears into the forest)

Measue: ~good luck fallen~

(measue sets off back tords her secrete hide out the blood from the cut on her cheek running down her neck)

Measue: ~I hope everything is alright

[ssjtrunks13]

SUddenly Naruto remembers about his newly acquired abilities, "I can sense her out.......Yes!, There she is." Naruto suddenly starts running towards Measue's energy signal with god-like speed and agility. He finally ctaches up with her and matches her speed to run by her side, "D'ya miss me? You should be happy to know it's gonna take much more than that to leave me behind. Here, I'll carry you to where you're going." Naruto picks up measue with one of his hands under her neck and the other under her knees and continues off to their destination. "You might want to hold on to my neck."

((That better? I wonder what comes next *starts pondering*))

[fantasytiger]

(Naruto and Measue return to the cave to find Elaine a sleep , but sacther is pacing back and fourth Measue ignores him for the minute and begins to tend to her wound. Naruto tries to asist her but Measue smacks his hand outta the way)

Naruto: Ouch!!! what was that for???

Measue: I do not need help!!

Naruto: ......you never change

( Naruto lays back with one knee up his hands folded behind his head)

Naruto: you are so serious.....

Measue: and you need to start acting like a ninja

Naruto: whaddaya mean??

(naruto sits up fast and looks at measue)

Measue: first fallen coats his blades in posion a very potient one at that his poison seeps through pore easily if you would have touched it you would have died over night

Naruto: then how come you are not dead?!?

(measue turns her head tords naruto )

Measue: I know the moves,skills,powers,and tricks of every clan member I trained my body to resist the toxin he uses thats why I am a shinobi and you are still a silver ninja.

Naruto: tisk!! one rank away I am still one of the top ninja's in the clan

(naruto jumps to his feet and turns away from Measue)

Naruto: are you forgetting why that is

measue: yes because I managed to take you and fallen down in the final test.

(naruto grinds his teeth his friendly spirit seems to fade)

Naruto: I had you but you used doppleganger!!!

( measue stands up and turns her back to naruto)

Measue: a trick any ninja could have seen through.....but you panicked and like a ninja I took the advantage

Naruto:............!!!!!!

Measue: this is childish dwelling on the past you still could have achieved it. but you had to fallow me like a lost dog

Naruto: why are you like this... every time someone shows the least little bit pf concern for you. You attack them

(measue looks down the expression on her face does'nt change)

Measue: You should get some rest the battle with fallen must have wore your power level down we leave at day break............

Naruto: NO YOU don't you are not going to just change the subject and try to avoid it now answer me why are you so mean to everyone who cares about you.!!!!!

(keeping her back turned and the same tone in her voice she speaks)

Measue: you fallowed me you are in no posistion to demand anything from me. how do I know that you are not still part of the clan. Everthing will be clear when I decide to let it

Naruto:.............

( measue turns and walks tord sacther to find him sleeping she walks tord the cave entrance and looks out at the full moon)

~naruto you have a lot to learn I did'nt mean to be so hard on you but I fearthat once you discover the truth about everything it will crush you most importantly the truth about me~

( ~ that symbol mean the character is thinking to themselves)

[Hero]

FLASHBACK
Chi: Fallen! Do it now!

Fallen: As a child No! Please!

Fallen looking down at an adult ninja, cowering in fear from the child that just brought him into submission...

Chi: KILL HIM! He is an enemy! He would've killed you if he had the chance!

Fallen: There has to be another way!

The adult ninja panicked, reached for his katana, and leaped at Fallen... Fallen panicked until a flash flew before him... He opened his eyes to find that the ninja was put down with one key slash

Ryo: Don't worry Fallen... The Gods understand when you have no choice but to draw your sword... Don't feel bad for the ninja... He knew the risk he took... I feel shame in myself for taking life, because I am reminded every day how much I owe the Gods for my crimes...

Chi is shocked at the words of Ryo, as they sound cowardly to him

Chi: That's not how it should be! Death is necessary... War is necessary... You must always make others know that your strength is over theirs... It must always be known who is supreme...

Ryo gets up from kneeling down to Fallen... and looks deep into his father's eyes... Even at the age 12, he still stands with strength behind his eyes, fueling his blood.

Ryo: Father... Peace should be your goal... Not war. War is painful for all those that endure it... It is more painful for the righteous that are driven to kill...

Chi: Are you being insubordinate?!

End of Flashback

Fallen is sitting next to a tree with a fire going...

Fallen-To himself- Ryo... Why?

He pulls a scroll from his satchel and starts reading it...

PS: Don't continue the flashback, please... It's something only Fallen knows and plays a key factor WAY later

[fantasytiger]

(is ryo the child chi' spared because i never said it was a guy )

( the early morning peeks out from behind the mountin Measue stayed watch all night )

Measue: GET UP!!! everyone morning aproaches we must leave

(sacther and Elaine get up slowly Naruto is already up and looks as if he never slept)

Sacther: were are we heading???

Measue: Mt. kjior

Satcher: ????

Measue: the gods await on that mountin and your trials begin satcher you must awake shorta within you or the gods will kill you instantly

Satcher: what!!!!!!

Measue: you wanted to save your village it was'nt just a concident sacther you were choosen this is your destiny. if you choos to leave your village and everyone you know will die make the choice sacther????

[ssjtrunks13]

(backtracking some)
Naruto follows Measue slowly behind her hoping she wouldn't notice and puts his hand on her shoulder.

"Look, I don't quite understand what happened back there but I wanted you to know I care about you. It's never felt so good being near anyone before, the best parts I believe to be are fighting along side you. It's then I know that you're not like most other ladies and I admire that. It's a beautiful moon out, don't you agree? It's just up there and it doesn't seem to care about anything, but it's duty. It's kinda sad actually once you think about it, it's up there at night and the sun's up during the day and it's not very often the two come together. Now is one of those times for us and I wouldn't trade anythig in the world for it. So, What's your plan when it's time to move on? I was hoping we could actually travel together more."

(morning)
"So, We're going to that awful place. I can't stand goig there, but if that's where you're headed I've got no objections. So, do you think he could actually do it? I mean that place is dangerous and there's not much to fight. Well, Whenever you guys ar erady I'll follow behind ya."

[Preventer Wind]

Wow, this is good stuff. I think I will post again tonight. This great story can't be left with just 3 people caring about it. We should take this to a game company

[fantasytiger]

wow really!!!!!!
i am so glad to here that)

BACK TO THE STORY

(Measue bites her lip as she waits for sacthers reply the thoughts of what naruto said burning in her mind)

Sacther: alright i trust you and if what you are saying is true then I shall save the village. But you must help me unleash this shorta i place my life in your hands

(measue bow down while Naruto watches waiting by the cave entrance as the sun rises higher)

(satcher and elaine pack up their stuff )

(measue aproaches Naruto still keeping that same serious look her heart hurts for what she is about to do but she knows for his own safety she must)

Measue: ..........Naruto!!!

(Naruto looks at measue measue takes a deep breath)

Measue: NARUTO YOU ARE TOO WEAK RETURN TO THE CLAN YOU ARE JUST ANOTHER NINJA TO ME I DO NOT REQUIRE YOUR ASISTANCE THIS IS MY JOURNEY

(measue picks up her sword her bottom lip quivers as she raises it to naruto's neck )

Measue: go or I will kill you myself

(naruto stern expression remains the same his body remains stiff as measue's hand shakes slightly)

Naruto: then kill me .......

Measue:........

(she whips the sword away as quickly as she pulled it out )

Measue: dam you Naruto you do not understand the powers that be or what the future holds !!!!

Naruto: but i do know that I whatever happens I will face it with you

Measue: take sacther and elaine to minar town its a few miles from here do you understand Naruto

[Preventer Wind]

In a dark dark dark place Devdan is seen talking to aloud to something or someone.

Devdan: I'm sorry, but I couldn't get the man.

?????: And why not?

Devdan: I left with a company of amateurs. Plus there was a ninja in it who had other plans!

?????: And you couldn't take down one ninja?

Devdan: But there were three and...

?????: But two of them were not there yet. You could have easily taken the man!

Devdan: Well if you know the answers then why do you ask?!

?????: I expect my most noble servant to tell me the truth.

Devdan: I only serve you be....I...I am sorry.

?????: You shouldn't let your thoughts sway you so easily. You should remember the only reason you survive in battle is because of your instinct to kill your opponent before they kill you. One lapse could cause you your life. And what a pity that would be to lose your life over someone you don't even know.

Devdan: I...I know Lord.

?????: Yes, I know. But now we most decide the next plan of attack. This man must not be allowed to reach the cave. Doing so would put everyone in danger! And the gods certainly do not wish for that. Now these ninjas. They are from the tucshik clan. Do you know any thing about them?

Devdan: Yes. They are a dark clan that goes against the 7 gods. Calling them the 7 gods of destruction. Their strength is incredible and their speed all the more amazing. Their history runs deep and their location is not known.

?????: Yes. They are an evil clan that wishes for the downfall of the gods out of their jealousy. They have more power then mere mortals should have but they want more. They want to destroy the gods just to gain more power!

Devdan: It is said that Lord Chi is the leader of the clan. And he is trying to change the clan members opinions of the gods.

?????: Yes, he may be the only that can save that clan from utter destruction. He knows that it is hopeless to oppose the gods and win!

Devdan: But lord, there have been talks that Shorta has been revived! I thought that was just a legend.

?????: It is! Those fools do not know what they speak of. And even if Shorta was real he could not stand up to the gods. He could not even get through me, Jherek, the god of shadows!

With this said something wrapped in a dark cloak steps out of the darkness and approaches Devdan.

Jherek: Now we must think of a strategy. It should not be too difficult. This time better prepared men will be supplied to deal with the ninjas.

Devdan and Jherek walk off developing a strategy to take down Satcher...
