Super long chapter ahead hope you enjoy it
Third person
........
Sniffing a minute at the air. The blue wolf cast her right eye up into a few trees, flicking her ears slightly backwards as she listens to the trees rustle. Slowly Slipping to her human form, allowing long red hair to spill down her back.
Just as a tall silver haired man suddenly approaches her his one visible eye raised silently in question.
"I don't smell any enemies at the moment" She informs him calmly, her voice low as she spoke.
The silver haired man simply nods his head resting his hands in his front pockets. Two more people jump down from the trees landing safely a few feet away.
Naruto crosses his arms over his chest a pouty look on his face, as he mutters a few words under his breath.
Sakura, sends her teammate multiple warning glares hoping that eventually he would get the hint and, shut his mouth. Though It didn't seem like he was actually taking the hint if him completely ignored her was anything to go on. Several animated veins pulse on the side of Sakura's head. Her hands going into tight fist down at her side's
"I do smell a few people in that direction," Yukia supplies, as she points her finger in the direction they were headed in. "But there not moving"
"It must be who, were supposed to meet up with" Kakashi replies calmly. His hand Holding up a few small pieces of paper.
It was just a few important documents about a treaty with the land of snow. Luckily they were only going to meet a few ninjas at the border, they were not having to travel all the way to the snow village
"Let's just get this stupid delivery mission over with" Naruto huffs Irritatingly.
How dare grandma Tsunade send him out on such a lame mission, how was he supposed to test his skills on people he couldn't fight? He knew the old bat was possibly just trying to get rid of him for the day. Bending his knees he focuses chakra into his legs. Naruto disappears up into a nearby tree.
"Don't start Naruto" Sakura warns as she follows him. Also jumping up into the trees. Following after her blonde teammate, as he leaps to another low branch.
Kakashi let's out a low mushroom sigh as he follows after his students. Naruto had been complaining about the mission ever since they had been, a signed to it.
Sakura, had managed to shut him up before he was able to argue with the Hokage, but that didn't stop him from complaining about it now.
Yukia, follows on the ground below, now back in her wolf form.
The Titans had decided to stay back at the leaf village. While Yukia had been asked to come, it was a small mission so there was no need for a big group.
Yukia was a bit surprised, that her friends didn't try and, talk her out of coming on this mission, but perhaps it could have been due to, Kakashi convincing them.
That she would be ok, him and his team would be watching her not, that Yukia really needed a babysitter, but it was best to let her friends know, that she would be ok, or else they would drive themselves crazy with worry.
Yukia puts on a burst of speed catching up to the leaf ninja up in the trees.
"We're getting close" She shouts up to Kekashi. "Where about a meter away from the strangers now"
Kakashi, appears in her line of sight. Giving her a small nod. Before he once again disappears back up into the trees.
"I can't wait to end this stupid mission" Naruto grumbles suddenly, as he leaps to another branch pausing as his eyes peek down to the huge blue wolf running below them.
Sakura, jumps to another branch across from, Naruto with her green eyes sending him another warning glare. It was perfectly clear she was getting tired of his constant complaining. But, at the moment she was choosing to stay quite.
"This mission isn't that bad" Yukia's voice travels up from the ground, her voice staying low.
"I know" Naruto sighs lowly under his breath. Landing on another branch. As He Comes to a short stop. "I just wish for something harder"
"I understand" Yukia agrees, as she comes to a stop on the ground her eyes glancing up to look at the blonde boy. A grin coming over her lips as she stares up at him.
Naruto, had to admit talking to her while she was in her wolf form was a bit weird, but it wasn't like he hadn't talked to animals before, it wasn't anything new to him.
"Maybe it was just something lady Tsunade trusted you with" Yukia inputs positively, her massive head titling to the side rather cutely, with one of her ears flopping to the side. Her tail slightly wagging behind her, she closes one eye as she winks up at him.
"No other ninja could do it" she adds gently.
Naruto smiles brightly down at her, shaking his head in agreement.
"Your right Yukia Chan, I am the greatest ninja after all" Naruto chirps, his hands punching at his chest determinedly.
"Let's keep moving, you two" Kakashi's voice suddenly echoes from somewhere up in the trees a slight sigh heard in his voice. "We don't have all day to stop and chat.
Naruto, let's out an annoyed groan before leaping over a couple branches, his chakra easily keeping him up on the lighter branches. As he leaps to them.
Yukia, starts running once again, below them keeping her nose in the air. Making sure not to lose the scent infront of them.
....
Landing in the middle of a small clearing Kakashi looks around with his visible eye, his brows furrowed when he didn't see anyone there.
This was where Yukia said they would be at right? turning his head. As a huge blue wolf makes its way towards him her nose still up in the air she stops short of the silver-haired man shifting to her human form Yukia glances around.
"I could swear I smelled them over here" She tells him honestly.
Naruto and Sakura jump down from the trees as well, landing safely beside Yukia.
"Maybe there hiding?" Sakura points out, with her eyes skimming over the area.
"Perhaps, your right" Kakashi agrees, his hand going to his chin, in silent thought.
"I can see if I can pick up there scent again, if they are hiding I'll be able to find them" Yukia suggest getting a small nod to proceeded from the silver-haired man.
Shifting back to her wolf form Yukia lifts her nose up into the air in hauling a deep breath. Ghe sudden smell of iron runs up her nose. Making her nose scrunch up, that irony smell causing her to shiver, she was easily able to recognize the scent it was impossible to misplace that smell, her ears flattening against her head.
"What's the matter?" Naruto asked noticing the small discomforting look that comes over Yukia's face. Biting at her lower lip nervously the girl flicks her eyes over to the three leaf ninja.
"I smell blood up ahead" She tells them her voice hushed as she gazes back in the direction of the bloody smell, her eyes hooding.
Naruto and Sakura widen their eyes at her words casting each other a few unsure glances.
"How far up ahead?" Kakashi silently hoping it wasn't the snow ninja they we're supposed to meet up with.
"Maybe a few meters away" Yukia answers him a frown on her face, as her head turns to face him.
Kakashi nods his head while bending his knees focusing chakra into his legs he jumps up into the trees the three teens follow slowly behind him in complete silences.
.......
In a matter of minutes the small group runs right into the middle of a small battle field blood splashed on the ground and on a couple trees, some trees had been completely cut in half having fallen over, lending on a couple other trees. Broken branches scattered over the ground.
Kakashi casually walks over to a male body slouched over by a tree blood pours from a huge puncher wound on his stomach, bending down beside the body Kakashi easily spots the headband on the ninjas head his visible eye widened slightly, he closes his eyes a minute silently praying for the young snow ninja before him.
A loud gasp comes from behind him making him open his eye again his head turning to look at his students Sakura's hands where in front of her mouth a disbelief look coming over her face, her eyes glistening with unshed tears Naruto hoods his eyes focusing them on the bloody ground at his feet, his fist clinched at his sides.
"Yukia" Kakashi address standing up he walks over to the huge blue wolf.
Her eyes not once looking back at him, a sympathetic look on his face at her discomfort she was possibly able to smell all the blood that was spilled here.
"Can you find the other snow ninja?" He asked carefully.
Yukia simply nods her head in answer and turns to head in another direction. Kakashi following at her flake with Sakura and Naruto walking slowly behind him Yukia comes to a stop her eyes looking down at another body this one female her neck looked to have been sliced open a few nasty cuts covered her arms and legs laying her ears back.
Yukia slips to her human form a sick feeling coming over her body the last time she saw people slaughtered like this was when she was with the wolf pack they would kill humans like this as well but she highly doubted her former pack would be here killing ninjas, feeling a comforting hand on her shoulder, Yukia peeks up at Kakashi gulping down another lump in her throat.
"The other body is not far from this one" She tells him quietly, before walking in the direction of the last body.
The leaf ninja follow after her, the smell from this bloody battle field really burned at Yukia's nostrils the smell was very intense stopping again in front of the last body.
Kakashi, walks from around her, easily spotting another female body slouched over next to a small bolder blood pouring from her head the red liquid trickles down the side of her head soaking her face, it was unclear what she died of due to the many wounds she had obtained.
"This is awful" Sakura whispers in a hushed voice a few small tears glistening in the back of her eyes. As she looks over the dead snow ninja.
Naruto nods his head in agreement to his teammates words, but decides to remains quite his eyes still on the ground, who would be able to do this? and, why?
Kakashi, stalks over to the snow ninja. Bending down beside her. He places to fingers under her chin. Checking for any signs of a pulse.
Heaving out a heavy sigh Kakashi stands back up a troubled look coming to his face. This was going to be hectic to explain to Lady Tsunade. Turning back to his team.
"Let's head back to the leaf village" He decides.
With, All three-leaf ninja focusing chakra into their legs and, jumping up into the trees. Heading back in the direction of the village.
Yukia, goes to follow after them. Shifting back to wolf form as she follows them remaining on the ground.
Yukia wanted away from the horrifying scene. Her and the others had stumbled a pound. However, she suddenly Comes to a stop. Turning back around, and, lifting her muzzle up into the air.
A side from the iron bloody smell which still made her feel sick, there was another smell on the air this one feeling quite familiar to her, a low growl rolls from her throat, before she takes off after the scent. In a different direction.
.......
Swaying to the side Yukia avoids ramming headfirst into a large tree. The scent she was following growing stronger and stronger as she grew closer to it a small fear suddenly coming over her body the closer she got to the smell, maybe she shouldn't have come out here alone she wasn't confident enough to face him on her own, or strong enough he could easily kill her on the spot if he choose to.
Yukia easily jumps over a log in the path deciding to avoid Rogue, before he gave her a headache, she couldn't have her mind focused on him. especially if the scent belongs to who she believes it to belong to coming to a quick halt. Yukia shifts to her human form keeping herself hidden behind a huge bush, keeping herself quit even going as far as to slow down her breathing, she peeks her head out from behind the bush her blue eyes easily spotting a dark haired man pasting back and forth before her, his foot crushing a stick as he steps on it, Yukia could feel the heart in her chest increase in speed.
'Debalo' she growls internally her hands immediately going into tight fist down at her side. An icy scowl clear on her face
Feeling someone suddenly touch her right shoulder Yukia freezes up the heart in her chest seeming to jump up into her throat. Her eyes blinking rapidly. Had The man somehow spotted her? And, snuck up behind her?
Yukia quickly reaches her hand back, grabbing ruffly at the hand on her shoulder, she was just about to flip who ever it was up over her head.
"Yukia, relax" A calm voice sounds in her ear making her pause. Her head turns to face a concerned looking blonde boy his blue eyes watching her. Releasing his hand she sighs lowly.
"What are you doing here?" Yukia questions quietly her eyes facing back out at the dark man he still hadn't noticed them yet good.
"You weren't following us, so we turned back around to follow you" Naruto answers her honestly, pausing again Yukia glances back at him from over her shoulder.
"We?" She tilts her head to the side in silent question Nodding his head.
"Kakashi is hidden up in the trees, and Sakura went back to the village we told her we would follow you" Naruto explains with a small grin down at her.
"We promised your friends to watch you, you know" He tells her, as he crosses his arms over his chest. Another low sigh emitting from Yukia's lips her head lowering.
"I didn't want you all to get involved in this" She admits in a hushed voice.
A series look comes over Naruto's face, as his eyes gaze out from behind the brush easily spotting the dark-haired man stalking back, and, forth, in front of him.
There was no doubt in his mind that it was Debalo. Naruto glances back at the girl, why would they leave her alone to fight this guy? It was clear he was quite strong. They couldn't just leave her to fight him by herself.
Yukia, lets out another sigh her eyes hooding as she peeks back out at the dark man. She wouldn't admit it out loud, but she really liked having Naruto there. It relaxed her nerves knowing someone was there with her. And she wasn't on her own.
"Thank you" She murmurs lowly to herself. A low breath coming from her lips.
"I know this guy scares you Yukia Chan don't worry we won't let him hurt you" Naruto whispers back determinedly.
Getting a slight eye raise from Yukia how did he now she was scared? Yukia quickly shakes her head removing that thought from her mind for now. She had to try and not think of anything else at the moment.
Debalo was right infront of them, if her mind got distracted to much she maybe unable to face him, or even fight him if need be.
Naruto, smiles confidently down at her before snapping his head up. He quickly scoops Yukia, up in his arms cradling her against him, as he jumps out of the way dodging a powerful black and white Aura.
Yukia hugs his neck with her arms closing her eyes slightly, a hot blast hits Naruto's back as the Aura explodes behind him a low grunt coming from his lips.
"Are you ok?" Yukia asked with some concern heard clear in her voice her eyes slightly opened so she could look up at him.
Naruto lands on a high branch placing Yukia back down on her feet, ignoring her question for now. Naruto glares down at the dark-haired man his blue eyes narrowing. Debalo smirks up at them his teeth bared.
"Awe Yukia" He muses making the girl shiver at his cold voice he only seems to smile brighter at her fear. "It's been a while hasn't it"
A low growl rolls from Yukia's lips swallowing down the lump in her throat, she had to ignore her fear for now.
A sudden loud chirping sound comes from up above the trees causing both teens to pause their heads snapping up easily spotting Kakashi falling towards the ground a fist full of lighting chakra sparking up in his hands as he grew closer to the dark haired man the lighting seeming to grow stronger.
"Lighting blade" He shouts jabbing his arm forwards aiming straight for Debalo's armored chest.
The powerful move hits dead on its mark, with a loud shriek explodes from Debalo's lips as Kakashi's lighting blade Pierce's straight throw the man's chest burning the tops of his skin the burnt skin falling off in flakes of flesh.
The lighting courses through Debalo's veins making it impossible for him to move away, all his limps start to grow numb. blood pouring out of the wound in his chest as well as down the side of his lips.
Kakashi, pulls his arm out of the dark-haired man's chest, his arm completely covered in the man's blood his lighting blade had already disappeared from his arm.
Yukia watches on in shock not believing what she was seeing even as the dark man falls backwards eyes with a glassy look coming over them. Even the color in his face seemed almost drained out was he really dead?
Was Kakashi really able to kill him that easily? Was the murderer of Yukia's family really dead? However, before anyone could rest their minds the Debalo in front of Kakashi suddenly vanishes into a puff of black smoke shrouding the silver-haired jonin in the thick black smoke, Kakashi widens his eyes in shock.
"A clone" He States both his eyes gazing around the area once the dark smoke cleared looking for the dark-haired man.
His sharigon having already been activated, A powerful chakra filled kick suddenly slams into Naruto's back sending the blonde flying forward a loud screech coming from his lips as he flies through the air heading straight towards another tree.
"Naruto" Yukia shouts, as Naruto continues to fly he comes only inches of colliding sideways into a huge tree, however something blue surrounds him stopping him short from hitting the tree, Yukia uses her shield to carefully lower the blonde to the ground safety. Regaining his balance, he smiles a thanks up to the Red-headed girl still up in the trees only for the smile to fade.
"Lookout" He warns her getting a slight eye raise from her, a warm breath suddenly rolls down her neck the blood in her body running cold.
"Nice catch" A soothing voice whispers in her ear, making her heart stop a cold icy feeling settling into her body, roughly grabbing her arm.
Debalo jerks her back towards him a loud surprised gasp coming from her lips, tightening his grip on her wrist causing Yukia to winch a small hiss coming from her lips. As his nails dig into her arm flesh. She glares up at the man her teeth barely flashing through her lips.
Yukia in hails deeply as her back suddenly collides heavily with the tree they were in. A grunt of pain coming from her lips.
A small trickle of blood streaming down her lip. The breath in her lungs having been completely knocked out. Yukia breaths in and out heavily trying to get the breath that had been knocked out back into her lungs.
However Debalo quickly grabs hold of her throat with his other hand his grip tightening around her neck. Preventing her from regaining her lost breath. Debalo easily keeps her held up with his knee pressed into her stomach.
The girl starts to gasp for breath. As his nails Dig into her throat. Causing blood to trickle down her collor bone. Debalo's tight grip closing off most of her air ways, only allowing a liitle air to get into her lungs.
"Yukia" Naruto cries loudly focusing chakra into his legs. Him and, Kakashi both jump onto separate branches from the dark man.
Debalo barely turns his head towards them. A nasty sneer coming over his face.
Debalo's grip on the girl's throat tightens more causing her to gasp louder, desperate for air. Yukia tries her best to push him off. Her nails scratching across his arms. But to no success he was just way too strong.
"Don't waste your strength" He growls lowly his Ruby eyes narrowing at both ninjas standing behind him.
"You should know by now death doesn't concern me" Yukia was barely able to spit out her eye's half lidded. As she sneers hatefully up at him.
An irritating look comes over Debalo's face scowling at her words to him his grip tightening around her throat, allowing no more air to enter her lungs. Yukia could feel her eyesight begin to blur up making it harder for her to see.
Debalo loosens his grip on her throat his ruby eyes sneering down at her again, he lifts her up easily into the air holding her up a few seconds, before throwing her to the side.
Debalo's tight grip suddenly releases her, the red-headed girl now falls towards the ground below at a seemingly fast past. Yukia crashes through the tree branches each one breaking as her back collides into them.
"Catch" Debalo smirks over at Naruto and Kakashi his cold eyes flashing with amusement.
The blonde's eyes had gotten awfully wide as he watches her fall. Naruto, jumps from the branch he was on falling towards the ground. Wanting, to catch Yukia before she could hit the ground below. Focusing a huge amount of his chakra. Naruto quickly performs a few hand signs.
"Shadow clone Jutsu" He cries a huge cloud of white smoke puffs up around him.
As the cloud Disappears at least twenty perfect clones of the blonde surrounds him one of the clones grabs hold of the real Naruto's wrist hoisting him up on its back focusing chakra into his arms the clone easily throws Naruto forward increase his speed towards the ground he had to hurry.
Yukia wasn't too far from the ground now, if she hit the ground at her speed it could possibly kill her. One of Naruto's clones who was a little ahead of the other clones quickly does a small backflip slowing his descend towards the earth floor focusing chakra into his hand he throws his arm up above his head his hand wrapping firmly around a strong branch.
The clone easily pulls himself up on to the branch focusing more chakra into his other hand he reaches it out to his side catching another clone by the wrist the other clone sways a little but quickly catches the arm of another clone, as more clones fall towards them each clone catching the other to make a long human ladder.
The real Naruto pushes himself forward. His arms stretched out desperately trying to catch the fallen girl, Yukia slowly opens her eyes small bits of fear clear in her pale face. With her eyes widen when she spots Naruto falling after her, his arms stretched out towards her, without hesitation.
Yukia, throws her hand out towards him, feeling his hand wrap around her wrist. Just as they got closer to the ground something catches Naruto by the ankles slowing both teens fall to the ground.
Naruto, and, Yukia, sway back and forth as they are slowly lowered to the ground, a relieving look Coming over Yukia's face when her feet brush across the ground Naruto jumping down beside her.
"That was close" Naruto sighs in relief his head tilting up to look at his ladder of clones. The clones slowly starting to disappear into clouds of smoke. As he releases his jutsu.
"Are you ok?" He asked lightly his head turning to the Red-headed girl standing beside him. Her head barely nodding at his words
With Her hand, rubbing at her throat tenderly Debalo had quite a hard grip on her neck, the imprints of his hand still evident on her skin.
A loud explosion from up in the trees causes both teens to jump their heads quickly snapping up to the trees on one branch stood Kakashi his sharigon activated as he watches Debalo sway back and forth in front of him the dark man having a few burnt wounds on his arm, burnt flesh flaking from his arm crouching on a low branch.
Debalo growls lowly to himself hating to admit to himself this silver-haired man was quite tough, standing up to his full height Debalo runs a hand through his hair a small smirk coming to his lips.
"You are quite impressive" He complements, with a dark laugh emitting from His throat.
Getting an unimpressed eye roll from the silver haired man Kakashi lifts his hands up to his face preparing for another jutsu
"Actually, a pretty hard challenge" Debalo muses delightfully holding his sword up.
He to focus chakra into his weapon a dark red quickly coming over the blade without much warning Debalo leaps forward the red color on his blade seems to jump of the blade turning into a huge flame the flame then surrounds the blade in a fiery like shield Kakashi focuses chakra into the back of his throat having already finished up his quick ray of hand signs.
"Water style; Water bomb jutsu" Kakashi shouts. Gaping his mouth open a huge ball of water shouts out of his mouth the ball of water quickly rushes towards Debalo.
The dark man slicing his red sword forwards the fire sizzling as it collides with the chakra filled water sending a hot steam flying backwards towards him.
Hitting him straight in the face Debalo keeps going focusing more chakra into his blade the fire surrounding the blade grows stronger slicing easily through the other side of the water ball.
Only for the water ball to be replaced by another water ball this one a bit bigger then the last Debalo focuses a huge amount of chakra into his legs before jumping height up into the air dodging the last water ball aimed at him.
Debalo thrust his sword forwards aiming for the silver man's chest however Kakashi quickly leaps to the side dodging the sword in the Nik of time, a sigh of silent relief coming from his lips the fiery sword burning the branch he had just been standing on focusing chakra into his legs.
Kakashi, lands on another branch the chakra in his feet helping him to keep balance on the slim piece of wood, his sharigon eye still watching Debalo, the dark man crouches down on the burnt branch Kakashi had just been on the branch crumbles a little under his weight though Debalo was easily able to hold his balance.
A small smirk coming over the silver man's lips though hidden by his mask holding up to fingers another loud explosion echoes through the trees the hidden paper bomb on the tree branch Debalo was standing on explodes a surprised look comes over Debalo's face as he his roughly blown back.
Splitters of burnt wood raining down around him the front of his clothing Charcoaled from the explosion Debalo lets out a low grunt of pain catching himself on a low branch before he could come close to hitting another tree his Rudy eyes glaring Nastily up at Kakashi who stares back unfazed by the dark man
"Rasengon!!"
A voice suddenly booms from his side Debalo snaps his head over spotting the annoying blonde boy flying towards him a swirling ball of blue chakra circling around his extended hand sweet dropping slightly at the powerful move.
Debalo, quickly moves to the side barely dodging the chakra filled move, Naruto quickly turns around in midair aiming his Rasengon again determined to hit the man. However Debalo ducks lowly under the boys extended arm. Debalo quickly aims a powerful chakra filled punch to the boys torso as his fist connects with Naruto's side a small crack comes from the blonde boys side possible a broken rib?
A painful gasp rolls from the blonde boys lips. focusing chakra into his legs Debalo jumps up into the air doing a small back flip he throws his leg out aiming a powerful kick to Naruto's chest as his foot connects, a low grunt comes from the blondes lips, trickles of blood running down the side of his lip.
Naruto falls to his knees a painful look clear on his face. Debalo holds up his weapon focusing his chakra into the dark blade.
A powerful chakra filled wind swirls up around the sword. Thrusting his arm forwards. Debalo sends a powerful wind straight towards Naruto, loud screams of pain coming from the boys lips. As Deep needle like cuts slice through his flesh.
Naruto, rockets backwards at a fast neck pace crashing hard through a couple trees each breaking as his back heavily collides into them.
However just before he could hit another tree a blue bubble wraps around him, slowing his projectile toward the last tree behind him. Naruto was easily placed by the tree the blue bubble not leaving him yet, Naruto breaths in and out heavily, his eyes closed.
A pitiful look on his face. Debalo rolls his eyes irritated that the boy wasn't dead yet, why couldn't this kid just die already?
Maybe if Yukia would stop interfering it would be easier to kill him!? quickly jumping to the side Debalo dodges a swift kick to the side despite some pain. Debalo was still able to move pretty quick
Kakashi stands up straight. His eyes sneering over at the dark man. Naruto uses the tree behind him for support slowly climbing back to his feet. Ignoring any pain he may feel right now.
Naruto glares hatefully back at Debalo his breathing coming out heavy he was silently thinking Yukia for stopping him from colliding with the tree. Suddenly something heavy slams into the dark man's back sending him flying through the air.
What feels like a thousand needles slices across his back flesh, Debalo could feel a hot substance pour down his back turning his head slightly he spots.
Yukia, following above him as he falls through the trees she was now in her wolf form her lips pulled back to reveal her sharp teeth, a low snarl rolling out her opened mouth.
Debalo quickly turns around in midair so he would be facing her, just as the blue wolf goes to bite at his neck, he throws his arms out blocking her from his throat, his arms pushing against her chest fur, her teeth had come only inches away from his neck, if she was able to get to it she would most definitely kill him in a heartbeat.
Using his chakra he roughly pushes the huge wolf back her huge size making it actually quite hard to push her back. But due to his huge chakra reserves it was quite easy for Debalo to do so.
Yukia flies backwards doing a somersault in the air, before catching herself on a large sturdy branch her blue eyes following his movements as he lands on an opposite branch crouched a dark smirk coming to his lips, his Ruby eyes skim over his three Opponents each one up ready to fight him again.
"Yukia"
The dark man address making the huge wolf pause her ears Flatting against her head, a small shiver runs over her spine at her name coming from his mouth.
Yukia, quickly shacks away her fear, another growl emitting from her lips.
As the dark man smiles over the three people in front of him the smile seeming almost fake.
Debalo, reaches back into a pouch on his hip making the three people around him tense as his hand reals out of the pouch.
Debalo, suddenly throws his arm up in the air. Releasing three small purple balls from his hands.
Yukia, quickly shifts to her human form letting her energy flow through her body, just as a small blue bubble quickly shots up around her as she focuses more energy into it.
The blue bubble grows bigger, a huge shield quickly surrounds Naruto, Kakashi, and herself as the purple balls grow closer, they seem to explode on impact with Yukia's shield a huge purple smoke cloud poofs up around them blocking there view of Debalo.
"Smoke bombs" Kakashi mumbles under his breath.
Yukia keeps her shield up even after the purple smoke vanishes her eyes still looking at the spot where Debalo once stood.
"He's gone" She mutters in a hushed voice removing her shield and shifting back to her wolf form. Yukia takes one last sniff at the air a low sigh of relief coming from her lips. "he's gone" She repeats in a much louder voice.
Yukia jumps down from the trees landing on the ground below in a loud thud her massive paws sending up a couple dust clouds she sits back on her hunches watching as Kakashi and Naruto also jump from the trees landing safely on the ground beside her.
"You both alright?" She questions caringly her eyes peeking over the two-leaf ninja, in turn.
Checking for any signs of injury Naruto lifts his shirt up. his torso having gotten quite purple from where Debalo had kicked him he Winches slightly when a small wind blows by tickling at his skin. Yukia walks over to him her hands turning a light blue. she tenderly lays her hand down on his side.
Naruto takes in a deep breath his eyes closing. Trying to avoid the sharp pain that came over him, As Yukia heals him the pain slowly starts to fade away, her healing quickly fixing up his injured rib.
"All done" Yukia says after a couple minutes. Pulling her hands away from his side.
Naruto reopens his eyes. gazing down at where the wound had been only to see his newly healed flesh.
"Thanks" Naruto says happily. the hand that held up his shirt releases. The shirt falls back down around him covering his torso back up.
Yukia quickly heals up a couple more deep cuts on Naruto's arms and shoulders. Before letting her energy leave her hands.
"Let's head back to the leaf village" Kakashi soothes with a slight smile being heard in his voice his sharigon eye already covered back up with his headband. His visible eye watching the two teens in front of him. Yukia's healing sort of intriging him. It was the first time he had seen it.
"Are you not hurt Kekashi sensei?" Yukia asked her head tilting up to look him in the eye.
"I'm fine" He assures her with a small dismissive wave, pausing a second. "And you don't have to call me sensei"
"I know" Yukia grins lightly at him she wasn't sure why she called him sensei for? It just kinda came out "I just wanted to I guess"
Kekashi smiles under his mask his head nodding. At her words.
Yukia turns to head back in the direction of the leaf village Naruto and Kakashi following beside her staying on the ground this time, Yukia decides to stay in her human form. She still had pretty good scents in her human form she didn't always need to be in her wolf form for her high scents.
"Do you think Debalo killed those snow ninja back there" Naruto mumbles lowly his eyes hooded as his mind thanks back to the horrified scene him and the others had seen earlier.
"Possibly" Yukia answers him a saddened look coming to her eyes having sort of forgotten about that until he brought it back up.
"It would not surprise me if it was him, he's not really the type to Hesitate on killing someone" She puts in bitting at her lower lip.
"Why does he not kill you then"? Kakashi asked bluntly his eye raised suspiciously as he watches the girl in front of him stop walking.
Her brows furrowed together in thought it was true Debalo has had multiple tries on killing her and he's come close to doing so but every time he always runs after he hurts her badly.
"I'm really not sure" She admits in a hushed voice her eyes still hooded as they watch the ground.
Yukia starts walking again the two-leaf ninja following after her having also stopped when she did.
"Perhaps he still thinks I'll join him" she mumbles to no one in particular.
Naruto snaps his, head up at this his eyes widen in surprise shock.
"Join him?" He questions lowly picking up his feet he runs to walk beside her clearing his throat Naruto speaks lowly. "You wouldn't join him would you?"
Yukia gazes over at him from her lashes giving him an are you crazy look. Before letting out a low sigh.
"No of course not" She answers him honestly, before looking back at the road as they continue walking.
"Maybe if I hadn't met the titans I might" She murmurs, in distaste. Hating herself for admitting it out loud.
Why would she be with someone who killed her family? But without the titans or maybe even without Naruto and his friends she probably would. Have joined him already.
Peeking an eye over at Naruto from her lashes Yukia, sends the blonde devious smirk. A challengingly look suddenly flashing over her eyes.
"How about we race to the village?" Yukia, suggested hoping to change the subject, there was no point dwelling on something that would never happen right? A low giggle comes from her lips. "I bet my wolf form is faster than you"
An amused look comes over Naruto's face his lips pulling up into a bright grin.
"You're on" He barks completely forgetting about their previous conversation, for the time being. Both teens stop walking.
Yukia shifting to her wolf form, both teens take up a running stance.
"On your marks get set..." Naruto randomly trails of an evilish smirk crossing over his lips.
Receiving a small eye raise from Yukia, what was that boy thinking now? Julia could only guess. But there was really no telling with him.
Focusing a huge amount of chakra into his legs. Naruto takes of running. Blowing a huge Ray of dust back into Yukia's face blocking her view for a few seconds.
"Go" Naruto, shouts just as the dust cloud clears up.
A deadpan look coming over, Yukia's face when she easily spots. Naruto, a few meters away from her, already racing in the direction of the leaf village.
"Hey, you cheater" Yukia cries, with a chuckle. Taking off swiftly, after the blonde. At a rather impressive speed.
Kakashi walking behind them sweet drops at the two teens competition, he never would have taken Yukia as a competitive type.
Yukia catches easily up to the blonde. Her eyes rolling over at him.
"It's not cheating" Naruto shoots back innocently, a cheeky grin coming to his lips. "I eventually said go"
"After you ran on a head" Yukia points out smartly. Her eyes rolling upwards. Yukia quickly picks up her pace. "I'll show you Naruto!!"
Passing right by Naruto, like he had been standing still, his blue eyes widening slightly noticing how fast she was going.
Naruto quickly picks up his speed, more chakra being focused into his legs, hoping it would some how increase his speed.
Naruto, catches up to the blue wolf again, just as the village gates start to come into view. With both teens putting on a quick burst of speed.
Yukia easily gliding past Naruto once again. Bursting through the gates of the village.
Yukia quickly comes to a stop big huffs of breaths coming out of her mouth.
Naruto runs through the gate right behind her not realizing Yukia, had stopped. Naruto ends up crashing right into her fluffy chest making her tumble backwards she falls over on the ground with a thud.
Naruto landing sideways on top of her his head resting on her shoulder fur.
"This pillow is so soft" Naruto purrs, through heavy breaths. While running his cheek through her soft fur.
Yukia smiles a small grin down at him as she gentle sits up, causing the blonde to slide down beside her his head still resting against her soft side fur.
Her fur was so soft Naruto could swear it was like his head was resting on a nice warm soft pillow even though there was a bit of dirt caking up her beautiful fur.
Making the girl scowl distastefully. Yukia, hated when her fur got dirty, it felt better when it was cleaned.
Yukia suddenly stands completely up. Naruto having not expecting her to stand up let's out a loud gasp as he falls backwards, his head smacking against the ground a bit hard.
A loud grunt comes from his lips as he sits up on his knees, now glaring up at the blue wolf standing beside him a cheeky grin on her lips as she glances back at him. An innocent glint in her eyes.
"Sorry" Yukia tells him apologetically. Her ears flattening against her head cutely.
Naruto gets to his feet continuing to rub at the back of his head. Hitting the ground with his head did not feel good. At all.
"You ok?" Yukia asked him concerningly. While gently nudging his shoulder with her nose.
"Yeah," Naruto simply grumbles under his breath letting his hand fall back down by his side.
"Where did Kakashi go?" She questions looking in the direction of the village gates.
The silver haired man had not appeared yet hopefully he was still right behind them Naruto also looks out the gate his head titling to the side true enough his sensei was nowhere in sight
"Right here" A voice soothes from behind the two teens.
Making them both jump their heads snapping back over their shoulders spotting the spoken silver haired man standing behind them his visible eye watching them with some amusement.
"Seems I won" He speaks up jokingly getting a deadpan look from both teens.
A low sigh comes from Kakashi's lips running his hand through his hair, a small nervous look coming to his face though hidden by his mask.
"I got to go report to the hokage" He mumbles unenthusiastically, "she's not going to be too thrilled about all this"
Holding up to fingers and boredly waving at them, with his other hand the silver haired jonin vanishes into a puff of smoke leaving his student and Yukia.
"I didn't think your sensei was, the type to kid around" Yukia speaks up with a small chuckle coming from her lips.
"You want to come with me to the ramen shop?" Naruto asked her randomly his eyes peek down at her.
Just as Yukia, shifts to her human form. Gaining several eye raises from the passerby villagers.
Yukia, smiles brightly up at the blonde. Seeming a bit unfazed by the cold looks the villagers where now giving her.
"Sounds good" Yukia agrees, with a nod of her head. "the ramen shop is right by the hotel right?"
"Yeah, it is" Naruto answers brightly, as he turns in the direction of his favorite place to eat.
Starting to walk at a pretty fast-paced. Yukia quickly runs to catch up to him.
Now walking by the blonde's side. Her crystal eyes gazing over the many shops as they walked by them merchants stood outside shouting about the products inside the stores even shouting out new deals that had come up.
Yukia even spots Ino standing outside her flower shop a broom in one hand. The platinum blonde sweeps of the entrance mate a few small dust clouds puffing up around her.
Ino, gazes up as both Naruto and Yukia pass by her. Stopping her sweeping Ino, holds the broom easily between her arm. While her other hand waves at the two teens.
With Naruto ignoring her his mind focused mostly on ramen. Yukia on the other hand waves back at the other girl, receiving a tender smile from the platinum blonde.
Ino, turns to head back into the flower shop.
Yukia, smiles inwardly. Before quickly turning to catch up with, Naruto at which he had almost vanished from her sight.
Not wanting to get lost in the huge crowd of people, even though Yukia, could easily track him if she had to.
Naruto swiftly turns down another street. With Yukia following behind him. His speed seems to increase as they grew closer and closer to the ramen shop.
Yukia could already tell when they were getting closer to the shop. Her sharp scents of smell having picked up on the nice smell floating through the air.
Approaching the small shop. Naruto, lifts up the small white curtain infront of the the little shop.
Naruto, takes a seat in one of the stoles. With Yukia sitting down beside him, her eyes peeking over at the hotel right beside the shop.
Yukia, could have sworn from the hotel window above she saw shadows of her friends walking by, she hoped they hadn't gotten to worried about her she was mostly fine though her neck was still quiet red.
"The miso ramen here is the best" Naruto states loudly bright sparkle flashing through his big blue eyes as he spoke.
The old man seems to smile back at the blonde seeming glad to hear the praise.
"So Naruto who's your girlfriend?" The old man asked kindly his old eyes gazing at Yukia, with his eyebrow raised in question.
A small pink slowly paints over Yukia's checks a nervous look coming to her face. As she stares down at her lap.
"She's not my girlfriend" Naruto protest quickly, his hands waving in the air innocently. "She's just a good friend is all"
The old man smiles at his blonde customer. Laying two bowls on the counter beside a hot steaming pot of noodles.
Yukia shacks away her embarrassment her eyes hooded as she looks at the bar keeping herself quiet.
"I see" The old man soothes lightly lifting a spoon full of hot noodles from the huge pot he places the noodles in one of the bowls he had placed beside the pot.
Hot steam coming off the hot noodles he then puts the spoon back in the pot scoping up another spoonful of hot steaming noodles and placing them in the second bowl grabbing up both bowls he walks over to his two young customers placing the bowls down in front of them.
Naruto licks at his lips, drool Coming down the side of his chin Yukia eyes her food a minute reaching up she grabs a pair of chopsticks easily breaking the pieces of wood a part.
"It smells so good" Naruto purrs lowly also having grabbed a pair of chopsticks he had, already broken them apart.
Reaching the chopsticks down in his bowl he lifts up a mouth full of the delicious noodles the hot steam hits his face a long with one of the best smells.
A loud growl comes from his stomach as he places the hot noodles Inside his mouth a pleasing look coming over is face. Little hearts float over his head.
Swallowing down his mouth full of ramen, his tongue licking his lips Narito reaches his chopsticks back down in his bowl.
Yukia takes a much smaller bit enjoying the mix of flavors that danced around her tongue. Behind the two teens the curtains lifts up silently.
The new comer takes a seat on the other side of Yukia, making her pause in her eating.
Placing her chopsticks down on a small plate on the table, she peeks her eyes over to the side curious to see who had set down beside her.
Yukia widens her eyes. As there meet with beautiful teal ones. Feeling her heart suddenly thump loudly in her chest.
Turning completely around in her seat. Yukia faces the boy sitting beside her. Regarding him with happy eyes. While His eyes seem to watch her.
Yukia, couldn't see much emotion on his face. But she was able to make out the small outlines of the soft smile on his lips.
"Hey Gaara" Naruto greats also having stopped eating his blue eyes peeking barely over at the male sand ninja. Before he once again starts eating on his bowl of delicious ramen.
"Naruto" The boy greats in a calm voice.
Causing a small unseen shiver to go down Yukia's spine.
Yukia, looks back at her bowl of Ramen her hands fiddling in front of her face nervously.
With her upper teeth biting unsurely on her lower lip she takes in a deep breath. Hoping to calm her nerves down.
"it's great to see you" Yukia, whispers shyly her eyes barely flicking back over to him.
It had Been awhile scents Yukia, had last saw him, and, honestly seeing him now almost made her heart burst out of her chest with excitement.
Why did he have to be so cute? And..... Scowling at her thoughts. Yukia shacks her head vigorously. Why was she getting so flustered and nervous anyways? He was a good friend nothing more.
Yukia, Smiles over at him once more. With one of her eyes closing, as so she would be winking at him. Despite her mixed feelings, she was quite happy to see him.
"Are you doing ok?" She asked with a small tilt of her head. Remembering the last time she saw him he had been hurt pretty bad. She just wanted to make sure he was really healed up.
Getting a small silent nod from, Gaara with his teal eyes casting over to the menu nailed firmly on the side of the shop. He places a small order. Before his eyes flick back down to the girl sitting beside him.
Yukia, was eating on her ramen once again. A bit nervously this time her eyes peeking up at him from her lashes, a couple times.
Naruto, having already finished his first bowl. Had already ordered second bowl of the delicious ramen.
Which had already been placed in front of him the exact time. A hot bowl of steaming hot ramen was placed in front of Gaara. Naruto quickly digs in to the second bowl a satisfying look coming to his face.
"You know if you don't slow down you could choke" Yukia scolds, with a caring smile at Naruto who slightly eye rolls at her words
"I can't do anything if you chock" She puts in pointedly. Making Naruto stop in his fast eating. Casting his eyes to the girl sitting beside him.
"If I choked over this ramen I would be happy" Naruto chirps happily.
Yukia, hardly shacks her head at the blonde. Her eyes hooding, as they flick back to the other boy sitting beside her.
With Naruto, quickly going back to enjoying his ramen. Gaara furrows his eyes at her having taken notice of the huge red handprint on her neck.
Which Yukia is quick to cover it up with her left hand. Once she noticed he was looking at it.
"This is not.." Yukia begins trailing of as she cast her eyes down to the table. Still remembering how scared she'd been when Debalo had her up by her throat. She honestly thought he would have killed her. But why he didn't was beyond her. "Nothing, don't worry about it.."
"What happened!?" Gaara demands to know. His teal eyes narrowed dangerously. Not buying the girls words. Of it being nothing.
"It's not nothing, did someone hurt you?" He asked darkly.
Naruto pauses in his eating, this time laying his chopsticks down on the plate beside his bowl.
Yukia, curses silently under her breath. Since the hand print didn't cut into her flesh like a knife or sword. Yukia, was unable to heal it up quickly with her healing abilities. It would actually take it awhile to heal up.
"It's nothing, don't worry about it" Yukia, repeats dryly. She was Unsure why she wasn't wanting to tell him what happened. It wasn't that big of a deal to her.
A small shadow casts over Gaara's face, not believing her words one bit usually when she said it was nothing there was something she was hiding behind those words.
"We ran into Debalo..." Naruto decides to answer, unsure why she was trying to lie about it?
Yukia glances over at the blonde sitting beside her, she possibly should have been mad at him it wasn't his place to tell anyone they ran into the evil man, but she wasn't really mad.
Naruto hoods his blue eyes as they flick down to her, Yukia was starting to become a very good friend to him and the others seeing Debalo having her by the throat earlier really bothered him. the fact the red marks weren't gone yet, made, him a bit madder.
A dark look comes over Gaara's face as his head turning away from them. That man again!
"If it hadn't been for Naruto and Kakashi I possibly would have been killed..." Yukia puts in trailing of her eyes looking down at her hands. As she lets out a sigh. "I tried to not get them involved, but luckily they followed me anyways"
"You tried to face him alone?" Gaara seems to growl in dangerous question. Getting a small nod of confirm from Yukia, no reason in hiding anything now.
But why did it feel like she was being interrogated? By him whatever happened with Debalo was over now, she was fine she was alive if that was a good thing or not she wasn't sure.
Glaring down at the girl beside him Gaara stands up and turns to walk out of the shop a shocked look coming to Yukia's face, as she quickly gets to her feet and rushes out after him easily catching up to him thought he was walking rather fast and she literally had to run to keep up with him.
Gaara, glares down at her once again, causing Yukia to look to the ground an unsure look coming to her face.
The girl, wasn't sure if she should keep on following him or not. He was giving her quite the cold glares.
"I am sorry" She mutters lowly under her breath.
Kicking at a rock that was unfortunate to be in her path. With the small rock Rolling a couple meters away before stopping by a water pipe, her blue eyes flicking to the boy beside her as he turns into a nearby alleyway.
Yukia still feeling unsure continues following him Gaara comes to an abrupt stop, causing the girl to also stop her eyes keeping on the ground as to not look him in the eyes the anger holding in them was quite intensive.
"I'm not mad at you" He states in a cold voice. Though his voice made Yukia unsure about his statement. "I'm furious because you tried fighting him alone"
The male pauses his eyes narrowing down at her. he was unsure why he was so furious with her? She didn't do anything wrong, yet in his mind she did.
She shouldn't have went to fight that man by herself. What if Naruto and Kekashi hadn't followed her? Then what?
Clenching his fist tightly down at his side, hearing Yukia inhale deeply In front of him. Her head drooping to the ground, eyes still avoiding looking up at him even as his footsteps grew closer to her. Thought she does flick her eyes up slightly, noticing he was standing right in front of her now.
"I'm sorry" She repeats her apology from earlier feeling quite quilty all a sudden.
No one had ever made her feel bad about going after Debalo on her own as he had in a matter of minutes, she took off after him a lot on her own, even though she held, a fear towards him something about his scent made her blood boil with rage he killed her family she wanted her revenge on him.
Her, actions sometimes where unreadable when it came to the dark man, she takes in another breath releasing the breath back into the air finally gathering up her nerves she takes a chance to look up at him her blue eyes gazing over him taking in the angry poster, despite his claim of not being mad she could tell he was mad at her.
Yukia's eyes slowly glance up into his teal ones holding his angry glare, for a short moment, before she couldn't take the angry look anymore. Making her look away again.
Most people possibly would have turned and ran from the look in his eyes. It was quite an evil look, if she had to say so herself.
But then again Yukia wasn't most people, the only person she feared was Debalo most other people didn't scare her too much well actually one thing scared her more then Debalo and that was losing her friends.
Even her life wasn't worth anything compared to there's, Gaara had become a very important person to her him being killed by Debalo like so many others had been bothered her badly.
"I can't help it sometimes" Yukia explains lowly, taking a step towards him her eyes hooded as she spoke in a softer voice his cold glares burying into her flesh like daggers.
"Though I'm scared of him in some ways, there's another part that doesn't fear him" She begins to trail of, her arms gentle wrapping around the waste of the tall silent male before her, once she had gotten closer to him. Causing him to flinch at her sudden tough. The heart in her chest increasing in speed at being close to him again.
Despite his anger at her his arms automatically wrap around her, pulling her closer to him. Yukia rest her head against his chest, her body trembling in his embrace, as a silent tear runs down her check, she was really starting to beat herself up for getting him so mad.
"I also hate him" She states lowly her lip trembling as she spoke. Her shoulders shaking.
"I want to see him dead Especially if I'm the one to kill him. If he was killed I wouldn't have to fear you or any of my other friends being killed" Yukia adds in lowly.
Gaara cast his eyes down at her the anger having faded away, as he continues to hold her close to him. He could almost understand on where she was coming from.
The man had killed her family and, on countless occasions threaten her life and, her friends. Removing his arms from around her he gently grabs her shoulders pushing her away from him.
"You don't have to fight him on your own" he tells her in a much calmer voice his eyes hooding. "You have friends who will help you now, so please stop trying to fight him on your own ok?"
Yukia kept her eyes focused on the ground. Taking in his words, knowing them to be true. Not noticing him, Frowning down at her. He carefully moves one of his hands from her shoulders, and, to under her chin lifting her head tenderly up so she would be looking him fully in the eyes. Her blue ones, now gazing straight into his teal ones. Just as another tear streams down her cheek.
Suddenly, feeling frozen as her eyes continue to stare into his. The anger in them no longer remained not that she could tell. Instead there where other emotions flashing through his eyes.
Ones Yukia had felt when she was with the titans. But honestly it felt different seeing them flashing through his eyes.
Worry, mixed in with, a few other emotions she wasn't able to place at the moment. Another lose tear streams down her cheek. Feeling his other hand leave her other shoulder. Tenderly brushing across her cheek wiping away the fallen tear. Causing, a hot feeling to come over face, her eyes blinking up at him unsurely.
Yukia, seriously felt like a shockwave was coursing through her veins making every bone in her body grow numb. She was unable to move away from him, unable to speak. She, wasn't able to break her eyes away from him, she just felt completely frozen in place.
Noticing his head slowly starting to lend closer to hers, making her heart suddenly jump in its ribcage. Her breathing coming out heavy, as he keep growing closer to her.
Feeling His lips, on hers, making her eyes widen in shock. The heart in her chest roars loudly in her veins echoing into her ears like someone was beating on a drum.
Yukia feels herself start to relax at his touch. Her eyes beginning to close, as her arms automatically go up around his neck, her fingers intertwining with some of his red hair as she slowly starts to return his kiss, his arms wrapping back around her waist pulling her closer to him, leaving no space between them to breath.
Yukia, some how felt so protected right now, being in his strong arms, felt so nice to her. It was almost like he was her shield. And no one was able to get to her. He wouldn't let them.
However he Suddenly pulls away, ending the kiss his hot breath tickling a little at her neck, sending small shivers down her spine his teal eyes kinda wide as he continues to watch her cursing under his breath he did it again. Why?
Yukia breaths out heavily her eyes half lidded as she gazes up at him from her lashes, a confused look clear on the boys face, though his arms still held her close to Him. Not really wanting to let her go. In case some one tried taking her away from him.
Gaara, wasn't use to all these confused emotions going through him why did he care so much about her? Why did her safety and well being concern him? He was good with hiding his emotions from mostly everyone else. Yet somehow she brought them out, more than anyone else has ever done before he really didn't understand them.
Yukia, slowly opens her eyes fully looking up into his face her checks burning brightly almost like someone had took a match and lit them on fire his arms slowly unwrap from around her waist to. Yukia's silent dismay his emotionless face back in place, as his arms cross over his chest, his eyes not looking away from her.
Yukia removed her arms from around his neck as well, her arms falling down to her side lazily both teens stand silently looking back at each other it was clear both didn't know what to say next instead.
They both turn to head out of the alley way. A comforting silence falling between them as they walked out into the crowed streets of the leaf village.
Gaara remaining at her side the whole time, that is untill they reached the hotel the Titans where in.
Yukia, waves a silent good bye to him. As she turns to head into the hotel, only to come to pause when something pops up into her head.
A sweat bead running down the side of her head they left Naruto at the ramen shop to pay for the bill she chuckles lowly to herself.
Well that could be her reward for beating him back to the village right? She would apologize when she sees him again if she could remember.
Walking over to a flight of stairs she walks up them till she comes to the fourth floor. Making her way down the hallway to the fifth door on the right, she swings the door open and walks inside the room.
Where all five Titans sat there heads snapped up to the door as she shuts the door back behind her.
"Your back" Starfire chirps loudly her hands clapping in front of her face, clearly excited to see her friend back unharmed, though Yukia did seem quite flustered.
"I'm going to go on to bed" Yukia mumbles in a low voice sending her friends a small smile, with each Titan nodding their head in understanding.
"Good night Yukia" Cyborg says caringly watching the redhead.
As she walks down the narrow hallway and disappears into the second door on the left the door shutting quietly behind her.
Yukia walks over to the comfortable looking bed. Easily pulling the covers back and climbed into the welcoming warmth pulling the covers up to her face she buries her head deep into her pillows her eyes quickly closing as sleep takes over her. Feeling quite tired. All a sudden.
..........
Back in jump city
Standing in the middle of the huge streets of jump city Titans East have a standoff with a few huge robotic men each one of them having a sorts of weapons going from shocking chains to lomg curve swords.
Bumble bee narrows her eyes feeling quite frustrated they had been trying hard to defend the city and get to Slade they had to get there friends back however with the army of robotic men it wasn't an easy task, her four teammates stood beside her.
Speedy holding up his bow, an arrow already being pulled back as the orange-haired Titan prepares to fire. Aqulaid stood on her other side a huge water ball up above his head as he moves his arms back the water ball seems to follow his movements.
On speedy's other side Mos and, Minos stood. Jabbering something in their native language of course Bumblebee wasn't completely sure what they were saying. She clenches hers weapons tightly in her hands her tight grip turning her dark skin slightly white electricity coursing over the small things as her energy flows into them.
"Titans Go!!" She cries charging or flying forwards the robots not wasting any time run towards the Titans east.
Speedy being quick jumps on to a low tree branch crouching low he focuses on a few robots heading towards him reaching back in his arrow bag he pulls out to more arrows.
Holding his bow out in front of him pulling back the string on his bow he prepares to fire. As Speedy releases the string all three arrows shoot forwards at fast speeds.
Accurately hitting their mark on the robots chest the arrows cutting deep into the robots armored covered chest as the arrows in bed farther into there metal bodies. sparks starting to fly crazily around them.
All three robots fall over on the ground in a loud thud a dust of smoke shooting up around them as there heavy bodies smash hard into the ground floor.
Speedy smiles cockily to himself, pleased with the mastery of his bow and arrows his hand running casually through his hair, however his victory his cut short when suddenly something hard slams into the male Titans chest sending Speedy flying backwards at a rather fast paced. His back hitting the back of the tree he had been crouched in.
Speedy in hauls a deep breath trying to regain the breath that had been knocked from his lungs. A little blood slides down the side of his mouth, a low uncontrolled groan comes from his lips, tilting his head up his eyes widen behind his mask.
When the three robots his arrows had previously hit stood in front of him, sparks still coming from there chest a small weapon was out in front of them almost reminding the boy of a small weird shaped gun a red light surfaces around the entrance of the weapon, sweet dropping.
Speedy uses the tree to help himself back up to his feet a low grunt coming from his lips as he forces his body to move no doubt his collision with the tree had broken something inside him.
Quickly jumping to the side Speedy dodges, a red beam fired from the robotic weapons only barely landing on another low branch he about falls over but manages to catch his balance, down below him on the ground inches away.
Aqulaid pulls his arms back behind him turning them in a rather uncomfortable way thought the light blue-eyed teen ignores the small pain that shoots up his arms at the uncomfortable angle he could not worry about the discomfort right now he had to fight.
The sound of pipes below his feet screech as they pop out of the ground behind him water now soaks the ground. His power easily controls the water as his arms move down to his side the cool water brushing up against his ankles.
"You will never tough me!" He growls loudly to the robots walking towards.
Him almost like they were mocking him they hold up a small weapon a bright red Aura surrounding the tip.
Aqulaid holds his hands up above his head the water from the pipes easily following his movements again the light from the robots weapons fire towards him scorching the ground on their hot pursuit towards the teen
Aqulaid quickly jabs his arms forward, water droplets washing down over his head as the water from the pipes shot forward they collide with the red Aura heading towards him.
Just as Aqulaid's water hits the red Aura a hot steam shoots up around him, momentarily blocking his view of the robots in front of him, Aqulaid quickly pulls more water from the pipes his eyes skimming around him as the water easily balances up above his head with one arm.
Running aside his brother both twins leap to the side their fast speed helping them dodge the powerful red Aura that continues to be shot at them.
Mas and Minos stop for a short break trying to think on a way to beat theses robots they were quite worried about the other Titans, Slade had scent of both twins hoped they were doing alright.
As a red Aura is shot towards them again, Mas and Minos touch hands and in a quick flash, the twins vanish into colors of red and white rushing around the huge robots around them continuing to dodge the red Aura.
Bumblebee shoots out a powerful stream of electricity, the electricity making a deadly path towards the robots on the ground charcoaling the ground as it keeps going, forwards.
The Titans East leader flicks her eyes to each of her teammates each one still in their own battle having been fighting the robots a while they were each getting tired but where willing to push passed the tiredness to help there other friends get home.
Snapping her head back a small smirk coming to her lips as her electric move connects with a few robots Bumblebee lowers herself on to a high branch her feet barely brushing across the tree bark.
Bumblebee, wouldn't let her guard up yet theses robots of Slade's where quite strong he must have built them differently than previous ones.
If the robots who were hit by Bumblebees attack getting back to their feet unscathed by her power was anything to go by the only damaged her eyes could spot where a few scorched medal parts a few sparks, seem to spark from the robots torsos she had even noticed the robots her teammates where fighting didn't seem to take damage either.
Landing beside her in a crouched position Speedy holds on to his side a pained look on his face gritting his teeth the male teen glares towards the ground below.
"Nothing I try seems to work on them" He states angrily his eyes sneering at the robots still on the ground.
"We might have to retreat and thank of a new strategy" Bumblebee address lowly not wanting to run from this battle, but it seemed Speedy was hurt and her other teammates weren't doing too good either.
The male Titan nods his head in agreement reaching his arm back he grabs out an arrow laying over his bow he pulls the string on his bow back aiming the arrow.
Speedy, releases the arrow, which flies throw the air at eye-blinding speed as the arrow collides with one of the robots on the ground it explodes on contact sending up a white cloud of smoke.
"Come on team" Bumblebee orders flying over the battlefield.
Aqulaid pulls a face not liking to retreat but new it was probably for the best.
Bumblebee would never retreat if there was another way, as Titans East make there retreat Bumblebee still keeping an eye behind her making sure the robots didn't attack them unexpectedly..
...
