Joshu! " all 3 teens said in unison as akumai crossed his arms " yes...unfortunately " akumai huffed as katsumi rubbed her temples " but how I mean...yati killed him...didint he?!..he turned to ash " katsumi spoke franticly as akiza stepped forward " calm down shadow bitch.. maybe it was some weird substitution jutsu " akiza shrugged as yati looked down " what ever it was...it dosent matter...if joshu is alive thats just more trouble for the shinobi alliance...we have to find him and put him down before madera remerges " yati cracked his knuckles as he looks at akumai " and besides sensai...ive beaten that guy before...well just beat him again " yati smiled as katsumi giggled " yatis right " she chimes in as akiza nods " I agree sensai.." they all look to akumai as the jonin blows some hair out of his face " ohhhh...alright I guess.. " he sighs and gives a smile " well...what are we waiting for team...lets go ! " akumai says with confidence as the team takes off into the trees " right sensai! " they yell. Meanwhile at the medical ninja camp tento yamanaka sat at sakos bedside...the girl was weak but awake...she was still recovering from the fight with akozo " hes really gone isint he.. " sako spoke softly as she looked at tento " yes...juto sensai...died in battle.. " tentos voice was cold and sad...he looked down at his hands as sako sits up a bit, growning from pain in her abdomen " no no rest...you need rest " tento said as he layed her back down causing sakos cheeks to flush pink " w-weres akihito ?" She asks softly as tentos gaze moves from her to a small cot beside sako were the tired ninja hound slept " shes a heavy sleeper.." tento says as he looks back down at his lap " she sure is " sako smiled as tento looked at her " I need to go.. " tento stood as sako looked at him " no!..I mean...dont go please.. " she says softly as tento looks down at her his cheeks pink amd his eyes foggy " my..my commrades need me.. " he says as sako leans up and takes his hand " I know they do...but...youve been through enough tento..I think what you need right now...is to stay here....with...me " sakos voice was calming and sweet...she was sitting up at this point meer inches from tento " o-ok.." tears streamed down his face as the two slowly lean into a kiss. Miles away joshu sat on a rock, his eyes closed as he connected with madera telepathicly " my lord...I have successfully destroyed over 300 of the enemys forces.. " joshy smirked as madera spoke " good...they will taste your full power soon enough...when we attack...they will be helpless aginst my infinate sukuyomi...and they will not be able to fight on two fronts " madera chuckled as joshu nods " and what of are masked friend " "he is preparing...he will be ready when the time comes ".
