Chapter 19: ch19
How many times have I died, I've already lost count the last time I rembered I think it was over three hundred times. And yet I still die, my friends die. The amount of scenarios I've tried already are limit less.
I tried to help himeko sensei beat the ninja while I left the others, i thought that by helping himeko sensei fight the ninja I could get him to arrive and help. But it was futile I was killed and than when we did succeed the others where already dead.
I went after funn sensei but he to was a dead end. The ninja was stronger than funn sensei. No matter how much I tried to save him or help him he will die or I will die. I'm lost I have no idea how to beat them. The only choice i had left is to fight the wind style ninja and get used to his fighting and learn his patterns and how he fights.
To be honest some part of me still believes that this is still all a big nightmare which I can't escape. The only thing I have to cling to is my anger that wants revenge and to destroy every last one of them.
I sat up from the floor I looked around the familiar room. I walked down the stairs ignoring my headache. I walked out the cabin what came into my view was the full moon.
The light from the moon lit up the forest making it able to see. I walked towards the forest where I found liam In the Same scenario. I throw my kunai when the man was going to move hitting him.
Plok
The kunai struck the log missing his target. I than threw the shurikens where the ninja was. The shutikens span like spiral turning in a weird angel. I aim at all his vital points.
But all of them was deflected.
He jumped out trying kill me with his kunai. I looked indifferent and that made the ninja uncomfortable.
Bang
Out of no where himeko sensei came out and kicked the man making him fly into the tree.
"Loket?! Is that you"asked himeko in suprise
"I'm suprise too. My friend your really alive" said lism while crying.
"It dosent matter,What matters is kill them. Himeko sensei you take on that ninja while me and liam help the others. Also the ninja is a earth style ninja. He has two c rank earth style jutsu and one b rank. The b rank jutsu is powerful, he can make his whole body into rocks. And his weakness Is long range fights and he doesn't have good taijutsu like compare to you." Loket explained.
I took liam towards the others leaving himeko alone. As we got there we saw Helena battle against the ninja.
"Liam I need you to create a clone of yourself and while ymthe real you transforms into a rock in a bush. When I say' fire' you will come out and use your fire ball jutsu" explained loket to liam.
Liam looked confused buy he understood that loket has a plan. He create a plan while he went into a bush and transforms himself into a rock.
Me and clone liam ran towards Helena to help her. I threw my shuriken towards the ninja making him jump back. As he did I threw one of my kunais aim towards there which suprised him.
Plok
The ninja used the substitution jutsu to escape my kunai. I shifted my focus to helena I explained to her to attack when I say 'fire'.
I also explained to azerth to keep attacking the ninja while me and allison will lend support. Azerth dashed towards the ninja with his kunai.
While I explained to allison to use her water style jutsu when the ninja will jump in the air. Azerth got thrown to the floor. I took the opptunity to throw my shurikens. When I throw the shuriken I quickly dashed forward while the shurikens hit the man. But he used the substitution jutsu appearing next to azerth.
I knew that is where he was going I slide tackled the ninja. He jumped up to avoid the my left sweep. When Allison saw the ninja jump she quickly performed her jutsu.
Water style: gunshot.
She shot the high speed ball of water towards the ninja. When the water bullet hit the ninja he was turned into a wind.
Me and azerth ran towards where the ninja. Azerth used his jutsu.
Lighting release: lighting flash.
Azerth threw a lighting coated kunai towards the ninja. I shot up to deliver a tornado kick.
The ninja guared himself from the kick. The ninja was thrown back towards where liam was hiding.
" now fire!" I screamed
Both Helena and Liam shot forward and performed the fire ball jutsu.
Fire style: fire ball jutsu
The fire aimed at the ninja who was too late to react. The ball hit the man straight at him.
Bang.
The smoke cleared and the man was nowhere to be seen.
"That was some high level teamwork. I wish that I can keep playing with you. But now that I am using this jutsu you can't win" ????
"Now what are we going to do?" said liam in Dispair.
Before he released I was right behind him. I hit him with my spiral punch from the back making him fly forwards.
The ninja landed onto the ground with disbelief in his eyes.
" what?! How did you know I will appear right over there?."????
" I just did" said loket.
It looks your the most dangerous one. I'll kill you first for hitting me!" ?????
The man swiftly got up and appeared behind me. I ducked down before he could swing his kunai towards my head.
I sweeper his legs but the ninja quickly jumped up. But that was a mistake.
Water style: gunshot
The water bullet pierced through the ninjas wind cloak. The ninja narrowly moved his body to divert the bullet towards his shoulder.
The ninja flew back and landed on the ground. " I've had enough of you punks!!" sxremed the ninja while getting up.
The ninja released his blood just making the others shaken even more than they already did. The night made the ninja seem like a monster and more intimating.
I've never seen him this angry or show this much emotion. The ninja didn't waste any time he weaved some hand signs and threw some high speed shurikens.
Wind release: rotating shuriken.
The others couldn't move from fear so I tried to deflect the shurikens that was headed our way but some of them struck me.
"Nooooo loket!" Screamed Helena In desperation.
"Its okay, this isn't enough to kill me" said loket confidently
" bur this will!" ???
The ninja slahed with his hand which made a wind arc coming towards me. I knew this attack already and I knew in which patterns you will use to throw your wind arcs.
I doged by turning my body to the right. The next one came and I ducked down. After that I jumped up, rolled to the left, jumped up again and lastly shift my body to the left.
" how is this even possible! The wind arcs weren't even close to touching you. It was like you knew where they where before you even doged! You truly are dangerous!" ????
The others where just as shocked that lolet could do something like this. I launched upwards to hit him with the tornado kick. I aimed down like a battle axe towards his head.
The ninja swiftly doged it and appeared behind loket aiming at lokets heart with his kunai. Lokets senses kicked in and he was able to block the attack with his kunai.
Clang
My whe body felt he vibration of the imapct. Before he can take the advantage I dropped my kunai to catch it with my other hand. I wanted to stap him but he grapped my wrist.
" you seem experienced in real life battle, I wonder what kind life you've lead to have to fight at such a young age" said the ninja with a raspy voice.
I ignored him and tried to punch him with my right hand but he caught my wrist. Now he has both of my arms locked. I tensed my muscles and jumped up with my full power to headbutt him.
Pow
The ninja was rocked and he stubled backwards while letting my hands go. The ninjas mask fell down revealing his face again.
His mouth was bleeding because of my head butt. His eyes squinted in anger and his eyes where nearly popping out from the amount of anger he had.
" what have you done!!!" Roared the ninja. The ninja let out a bounderful amount of bloodlust makimg the others hike on the air. They all fell on to the knees because of fear. The ninjas ghourish face and the night made him look like malicious a demon coming to reap our life's.
" loket run you can't face him, you can't beat that thing it's bot even human anymore" Screamed azerth in fear.
I didn't care anymore I dashed straight at him. The ninja increase the level on his wind cloak making the around him feel suffocating. The ninja appeared in speed I've never seen before. he grapped my hair and smashed it into the ground.
Bang
"Ahhhhhh!" Screamed loket in pain
Then he proceeded to break my leg in half." Ahhhhhhh" screamed loket with tears in his eyes.
The ninja proceeded to break all of my limps one by one. The others watched in despair they screamed at their legs to move but they won't respond. Allison puked onto the ground and a than proceeded to collapse.
They all couldn't do anything but watch.
"Ahhhhhhhhh!" Screamed loket in pain.
The ninja bent down towards lokets ear and said" now watch me mutilated your friends"
He did just that. Their screams echoed in.my ears. I couldn't do anything but scream and cry pain. I looked at helenas dead eyes. They where in pain and fear.
When he proceeded to walk towards me with my friends blood covering him. I felt my fury blaze. I squeeze my teeth so tight that they started to bleed.
"I will kill you!!!, I will kill you!!!, I will kill you!!!" Screamed loket his words where true they where threats that could burn someone. They where pure hatred.
Lokey banged his head so manybtimes that the ninja thought that the kid was crazy." Your bloodlust and your hatred is grater then mine, but I didn't matter I'd you don't have power to back up that hatred" said the ninja with a raspy voice.
The ninja took his time killing me it was pure hell, my body felt numb and my mind was lost. for ten minutes my whole body was ripped apart, chopped and tortured. After a long time my body gave out and i finally died
I arrived back in the darkness this place was the only peace ive gotten. Do I have to do that again. It's been three months how long will this last. Iasked my self these stupid questions but I knew I will never stop until i kill the ninja.
I awoke in a familiar room the sounds of their screams echoed through my mind it was something any human should witness it was evil pure evil. I closed my eyes and the image of their lifeless bodies came into mind. No matter what I try and do they end up saying.. there is no escaping it. it's fated for us to die.
I stayed on the ground conplitating what to do next. I thought about the times I've died and how many times I let my friends die. The anger inside me raised in a fire making me feel it throughout my body.
I hammered my fist into the floor again,again, again,again,again, again and again until my fist was covered in blood. Why am i the one going through this?!, if this was azerth or liam they would of been able to defeat the ninja and save everyone. So why me?! Clearly they are stronger than me, I'm just a worthless nobody who can't do anything.
No matter how many times i try I fail. I tried over and over again but no matter what I throw at the ninja I die. I can't rely on the enters I need to train do this myself. I... to do anything that it takes or I'll never be able to save them, if the world wants us to die here then ill just go against it and keep changing the future until I they are safe. No matter how many times I die.
I got up and I ran outside cabin. I quickly dashed towards liam to save him.
The ninja vanished with his substitution jutsu
Into the woods.
"Loket your al-" liam was suprised that loket was alive but he was cut off by loket.
"Not right no liam, we need to save the others" said loket.
Himeko sensei came and took care of the ninja. I again explained to him the weaknesses of the ninja. When I finshed explaing I took liam with me towards the others.
I arrived and I saw the same scene ive seen before,Helena battling the ninja. I dashed towards the ninja while I threw surikens that cured in the direction he was supposed to be.
Tak
Tak
Tak
Tak
The shurikens hit a log instead of him. I arrived behind of helena where the ninja would appear. I slahed with my kunai and as the ninja appeared he was taking aback. He doged the slash and retreat away.
"Lo..ket is that really you?." Spoke helena with tears of happiness rolling down her face.
"Yes, we will have a talk later but right now I need you and the others to stay out of it" said loket.
"No?! You think I'm going to you kill yourself. I'm not going to see you die again. It's a miracle that your still alive" screamed Helena at loket.
" you have to, if we want to survive I need to kill him myself." Apposed loket.
Helena borrowed her eye brows and intensity looked at me." Are you a idiot! The ninja is atleast chunni level and last time I checked your weakest one out of all of us . With my sharigan awakened we can take him on" said Helena trying to prevent loket from dying.
" I agree with her loket, your no match for him only azerth can take him on out of all of us." Joined allison in opposing lokets stupid idea.
The whole group looked fired up and ready to fight the ninja they had hope and trust that they won't lose. But I know how that hope and fire will turned into despair and helplessness.
" azerth and Liam I need you to do me a favour. I will kill the ninja I promise it ill make sure that he will never heart any of you. You have to trust me on this one, this is the only way to win" loket spoke to the two of his cloae friends to convince them and to trust him.
Azerth and liam knew that loket wasn't a guy who gets serious but for the first time they felt like he was a complete different person and every word his said felt like he meant every last one of it. They both nodded complete trusting loket.
"Fine we will let you have him but try not to die" said azerth.
" are you guys crazy wha-" spoke helena in disagreement but liam dragged her away while covering her mouth with his hand.
MUFFLED
I watched as they they walked awaya nd helena whinwas dragged back while struggling to get out of liams clutch, they went far away from me so they don't get in the way if the fight.
"Are you finally done with you bickering. I tell you this watching little kids bickering was not what I wanted to do today but kill you on the another hand was." Said the ninja with a raspy a voice.
I didn't say anything. My anger was at is highest every part of my bone and soul was angry.
" woah what is with that bloodlust it's even greater than mine. But i am shocked that your friends let you fight me by yourself they must really want you to die" said the ninja.
" why would a person like you understand what a friend is. They put their trust in me that kind friendship is something you can't find anywhere" said loket.
" yeah your right. Maybe I should kill them right in front of you while you watch as I chopped them into bits." Said the ninja like he feels pleasure from toying with people life's.
I stopped trying to talk to him and dashed right at him eith my kunai. The ninja reacted by throwing his shuriken at me. I've already learnt on which pattern you throw your shuriken, you aim for the heart and head.
I swiftly dodged the shuriken while I closed in on him. I threw my shuriken at him aiming for his head. He sided to the right dodging it with ease. He retaliated by dashing at me with a flying kick.
How predictable. I jumped up high while doing a back flip. I grapped six kunai out and throw them all in the sky. When I landed I grapped a few shuriken and threw them one by one in angles that he wouldn't expect them to go, I hit one the kunai in air to change is trajectory aiming for his vital points.
While he was dodging and weaving I dashed forward with all my power channeled towards my legs. I got close I saw the last kunai going straight at him I threw a shurike to bounce up in the air.
I quickly jumped up and grapped the kunai, with lighting quickness I slashed downwards aiming for his head. The ninja quickly backed backwards as quick as possible. This all happened in six seconds lokets pushed his beyond of what he can do.
"Ahhhhh!" Screamed the ninja.
The ninja covered his eye as it was cut. The blood dropped down to the ground. The ninja looked in disbelief.
"You damn bratttt! How dare you! That's it I'm done playing with you now I will show you the difference of power" screamed the ninja in fury. He couldn't beleve that a ten years old brat was able to cut him.
The ninja weaved the signs fof his wind type ninjutsu.
Wind release: rotating shuriken.
The ninja threw the same ninjutsu as he did before. I easily doged it by the countless times I've seen this jutsu.
"What the hell are you! There's no way a brat like you could doge a high speed shuriken.!They never told me that one of you would be dangerous! I'll make sure to kill them when I'm done with you brat!" Screamed the ninja in frustration.
He than dashed at me with at unimaginable speed he arrive behind and tried to slah my head of with his kunai. I ducked down and pushed myself off with my hands allowing to create a explosive double kick on his gut.
Pow
The log was launched away by my kick. As always he is quick with his substitution. What makes it worser it's dark outside, the moon made it manageable but him disappearing and appearing from the dark is troublesome.
I quickly stood up and I felt my instincts scream at me I brought my kunai up and blacked to my right side.
Clang
Scrretch
" I tell you this kid your fighting is like a experience ninja in a battlefield. You have suprised me! To have this much experience at such a young age! I can see it you've seen death no your eyes hold darkness greater than mine. You are already dead! Hahahahaha! " said the ninja in suprise and excitement I'm his voice.
This man.. there's something wrong with him he is happy and the next second angry and than excited he dosent have any control over his emotions.
The ninja deflected the kunai by knocking my hand upwards. He than proceeded to kick me making me skid backwards. The kick was heavy and fast I felt my stomach burn in pain.
He didn't let me catch my breath he quickly dashed at me trying to kick my head of. My senses kicked in and I doged by rolling onto the ground.
He quickly came after me delivering multiple kicks on me on the ground. I rolled to doge his kicks. I quickly took a shuriken out and threw it towards his leg. He quickly reacted and kicked the shuriken out the way.
I took the opptunity to get up and make space between us. When looked back up I didn't see him. Where the hell did he go. I've done this scenario before he will come out from behind. Than all I have to Is take the opptunity and stap him.
I acted like i was looking for him but just like I predicted he cam behind me. I stabbed behind me with my kunai trying to catch him of guard.
I felt my shuriken sink in and then It felt like I hit air. Damn it's his wind clone, he's not taking me lightly anymore. In the next second I felt the ground crack underneath me.
I tried to doge but he grapped my ankle. I tried to struggle my way out of his grip but I couldn't beat him strength. He broke through the ground and than proceeded to slam me onto the ground.
The ninja didn't stop there he gripped my leg tighter and started to slam me down like rag doll.
Burgh
Blood started to come out of my mouth and few ribs where broken. I quickly took out my kunai and stabbed him in the hand. He dropped me to ground immediately and I quickly made some space between us.
"Ahhh your damn brat!. I'm done playing around with you!" Screamed the ninja fed up of fighting a persistent little kid.
He weaves some hands signs which I knew to well.
Wind style: wind cloak
The air around the ninja stuck onto him like a tornado was covering him. He swiftly appeared next to me and proceeded to do a side kick but my hundreds of deaths made my senses heightened. I barely doged the attack with a scratch on my nose.
The ninja didn't stop there he used the wind around his leg to propell his kick giving it power again he hit my head on to my face backing me fly backwards.
I landed onto the ground I was on the verge of passing out bur my will stopped it from happening.
"Is that all, all you have done until now was just a waste you should of offered you life up to me sooner,now I have to give you a hellish torture before I kill you" said the ninja with a excited tone.
I struggled to get up swaying side by side. My legs where shook and my mind was in pain. I stood up to fight him again I will kill you no matter what it takes.
"Shouldn't we intervene, he's going to die" said Helena stating her fears.
" I promised him that i we won't do anything"said azerth.
"Are you kidding me!, he's about to die" screamed Helena helplessly.
" I agree with Helena we need to save him, he was putting a good fight against a powerful ninja but now he has taking it serious." Said allison worried.
" just wait the fight isn't over . I know loket will figure something out" said liam
" i don't care what you think. I'm going to go save him!" Screamed Helena.
Liam and azerth grapped her by her arms stopping her from going." Let me go!"
The ninja took out his kunai and he swiftly dashed in front of me with his kunai slashing towards my head. Am I going to have start again and die again and again. How many times do I have to die until I beat him.
How many times am I going to let him get away with killing my friends. And than flashes of fuu sensei telling me about the 'zone state' which only happens after a n8nja has experience multiple battles appeared in my mind. I unconsciously channeled my chakra towards my while body. I felt the speed swirl around my chakra network at speeds I have never been able to do.
I quickly weaved the signs for the substitution jutsu. I ve done the signs do many times I could do it under two seconds but I did it in under half a second.
Puff.
To be continued
