"That girl, what is she thinking breaking through like that," The tan cloak Anbu muttered."Especially with those people--" He trailed.

"What? Those people what?" The brown hair Anbu with a green mask asked.

"Ha! What are you going to do now, Sarutobi Sensei?" Orochimaru asked with a smile showing his snake fang teeth."Same for you, Crystal. What's your plan now that you're in here?"He asked, seeing a brief glance to the side.

Kei narrowed her eyes in response studying the situation, and clenched her fist, seeing the coffin held the First and Second Hokage.

"What can you do, Lord Third Hokage," Orochimaru said sarcastically since his daughter had no response."Especially when Kei in here stands no chance of survival, straining her body even with the crystal armor, those flames were still strong to withstand."

The Third Hokage clenched his teeth, sweat running down his face sensing the situation was even worse now that Kei was in here close to the crossfire.

The second and First Hokage then started to walk out fo the coffins towards the third Hokage.

"It's been a long time, Saru," The First Hokage said.

"Oh, it's you," The Second Hokage said."You have gotten so old, Sarutobi," He commented.

"Never in my entire life did I imagine. That I would have to face off against my brethren in this manner, "The Third Hokage said.

"This is horrible," The Anbu wearing the beige cloak said."That summoning justu."

"Who in the world are those two," The ANBU with brown hair and green mask asked.

"Please prepare yourselves," The Third Hokage said with narrow eyes."First, Hokage, and Second Lord Hokage."

"A Summoning justu," The Second Hokage said, looking over at the First Hokage."It seems that he used the forbidden Reanimation technique. How insolent."

The two coffins behind of the reanimation Hokage then fell to the ground.

"Then Sarutobi, tell me does this Summoning Justu mean we're being forced to fight against you?" The First Hokage asked, looking over the Third Hokage.

"Enough with the reminiscing," Orochimaru said."It's time we got started," He said, walking towards the reanimated pages and holding two kunai in his hands with red tags on them.

"No, stop, don't do this!" Kei called out, holding her knees and panting as she stood up.

"That girl, what is she doing in the middle of a battlefield?" The Second Hoakge asked, looking over at Kei's weak state.

"I don't know, but her facial structure reminds me of so much of Mina-chan but more pale compared to hair and serpent-like," The First Hokage said, studying Kei's appearance.

"Enough pointless chit-chat time to start the fun, "Orochimaru said, annoyed, glancing at Kei." You're becoming a bothered Crystal."

"Whenever you live there, always war," The First Hokage said sadly.

"Isn't this great?" Orochimaru laughed, turning his attention back to his old sensei.

"Nothing good can ever come from this," The Throd Hokage said."You've disrespected the dead and manipulated time."

Orochimaru lifted his hands, smiling, holding up the kunai with red tags.

"Father, please listen to me," Kei begged, walking one toward her father sluggishly."You don't have to kill the old man. It won't fix whatever ever did to hurt you," She said softly, eyes shining with the hope he would listen to her plea.

"That girl is a fool if she tho is simple words like that are going to stop her father," The tan cloak ANBU stated.

"She might be skilled in just, but she is still a foolish child who thinks that she can just talk her father out of his evil ways," The ANBU with a black cloak and red mask commented.

"Not like the girl knows anything about her father. It was kept a serecet until he showed up," The green mask ANBU explained.

"You three shut up. You don't know anything about my father!" Kei snapped, glaring at them with her snake eyes."Father, please stop. My other wouldn't want me to let you do something that deep down you know isn't what you want," She said, clenching her fist, determined to reach his inner conscious.

"That girl her personality is similar to Mina-chan as well, but at the same time, she seems quieter but definitely can get loud when determined ot seems," The First Hokage said.

"She could possibly be related to our little Mina. She did have children with that Crystal user that made refugee here after his clan was nearly wiped out in the war," The Second Hokage commented.

Orochimaru just remained silent as he held the two kunai above the necks of the reanimated Hokage."Enough of your interference with your crazy talk!"Orochimaru said, wrapping his tongue around Kei and lifting her into the air."You won't be killed still need you for my plans for the future, but I need you out of the way," He said, tossing her in the air and sending her flying into the hard tiles behind him.

Kei coughed out faint specks of blood as she hit the ground hard.

"Father," Kei whispered, barely remaining consciousness as her father glanced at her whispering something before he turned away from her.

"Now then, shall we begin this," Orochimaru said, smiling at the third Hokage.

That was the last thing Kei heard as the world around her with entirely black, and she began to lose consciousness.

'Mother, I couldn't stop Father, and now I can't protect him from getting hurt by the Third Hokage. I'm sorry, Naruto as well. I couldn't protect the old man even though part of me didn't care, not after he lied about my father. Also, who is Mina?' Kei thought as she shut her eyes, welcoming the darkness.
