Naruto: Legacy of the Sand

Chapter 17: Hachishakusama's Assault

With the group all shocked and others frozen in fear, they could only watch as the Yokai, known as Hachishakusama, came back through the whole and continued to have her creepy smile. "How are you free, Hachishakusama? You were sealed away since the first shinobi war?." Kumo asked as she got into her stance and ready for her, but the others were too scared to even move with everyone focused on her. Temari and Tayuya took Naruto away from the battle as this was no place for them, and they were now outmatched. Hachishakusama slowly turned her head toward the trio. "Don't leave yet..." Hachishakusama started, and her voice still put a chill on their spine as they froze in place and didn't dare move. Then Hachishakusama turned her head back to Kumo. "And as for you, I was in the same cave as you, Jorogumo," Hachishakusama said as her smile grew wide, causing the others to step back but be ready to fight. They didn't know if they could beat this supernatural creature even with Kumo's help, "If your new friends didn't find that cave, I was afraid I would be stuck in the pillar for a long time if it wasn't for your new cute little snacks Jorogumo I wouldn't felt so alive and boy was I starving." Hachishakusama said as Kumo realised that she was the cause of this trouble and was unsure how she'd make it up to her newfound family. Hachishakusama suddenly dashed toward Temari, Naruto, and Tayuya, shoved the girls out of the way and grabbed Naruto's head. Then, some dust came from Hachishakusama's palm, causing Naruto to pass out. Then Hachishakusama raised him in her arms and turned to face the others. "I'll be taken my ultimate prize," Hachishakusama said as she dashed off with Naruto, leaving the others horrified. Temari's eyes widened and her mouth wide open, and then Temari sharply got up from the ground and chased after them. "GIVE BACK MY NARUTO!." Temari yelled that she wouldn't give up and let someone take Naruto from her. Kumo followed them, and then Tsunade, Rasa, and Kumo rushed to help Temari return to Naruto. At the same time, the others tended to the wounded and ensured everyone was alright, but Hachishakusama had a slight lead start. She was almost at the main gates but suddenly halted; Suna forces blocked her path before her, as Spider's Shadow Clone told them. "By other of Lord Kazekage, let Naruto go and surrender." Spider's clone said as Hachishakusama smiled and held Naruto close. "Sorry, but my main prize is coming with me," Hachishakusama said as she took steps toward the forces. However, she stopped when Hachishakusama sensed four people behind her.

Tsunade, Rasa, Temari, and Kumo arrived and were ready to take Hachishakusama down. Then Hachishakusama sighed, "And this party was nice and calm until my prize just HAD to come back into the house." Hachishakusama said as she held Naruto up by his neck, causing everyone to stop in their tracks, fearing what she'd do to Naruto, but then Hachishakusama opened her mouth, and fangs came out. She bit down on Naruto's neck, causing Naruto to scream in pain, and the others watched in horror, but Temari wasn't going to stand around and watch as she threw her giant fan to Hachishakusama and dashed behind it. Then, the massive fan hit Hachishakusama's back, causing her to yelp in pain and drop Naruto. Temari came up behind her and kneed Hachishakusama at the back of her knee, causing her to fall to one knee and clench her knee. "AH!... You little brat!..." Hachishakusama said as she glared at Temari, her red eyes filled with anger. She watched Temari pick up Naruto in her arms and look back at Hachishakusama. "Nobody, and I MEAN NOBODY TAKES OR HURTS MY NARUTO!." Temari said, and then Kumo and Rasa stood together and set up a jutsu. "SAND STYLE: Sand Wave!..." Kumo and Rasa said in unison as a wave of sand dashed toward Hachishakusama, and she stood frozen by the oncoming wave. "Oh... crud!..." Hachishakusama said as the wave smacked into her and moved her to the Suna wall and slammed into it by the sand wave; as soon as the sand returned to the ground, Hachishakusama slid down the wall, then slowly got off it and used the wall as support. "Ow!..." Hachishakusama said as she spit out the blood and didn't wipe it from her chin. Then the drips slid down from her mouth to her chin and down her neck while some blood stains dropped from her chin and onto her chest and dress while Hachishakusama breathed heavily and just smiled as she gazed towards everyone with her face being creepy. "I must say, I haven't had this much fun since I got sealed," Hachishakusama said as she licked the blood with her long tongue and swallowed the blood down her throat. Soon, the real Spider showed up. Spider was pissed that someone had hurt the third Suna Prince and ready to make Hachishakusama pay as Spider crackled her knuckles and walked towards her. "I will teach you not to mess with Suna and Lord Kazekage's family," Spider said as Temari summoned a clone and gave Naruto to her clone to look after.
