Once the barrier was completely gone, I took a stance next to the Hokage.

'I never thought I'd be fighting a sanin at my age.' Orochimaru gave a hearty evil laugh slamming his hand the the ground with swift movements.
The electric current running through my body slowed until it came to a complete stop. 'Now what? I'm running out of energy ...and chakra.'
Right after the snake's two hands hit the ground, two cement graves rose out of the ground. 'Okay, I'm know I'm supposed to be brave and shit, but that's creepy as hell.'
The powdered white man smirked and then started bickering with his old sensei ...again.
Hiru-Sama then ripped off his Hokage robes and fought with those two dead guys in his new armor. Orochimaru watched the third from behind the coffins like a coward.
I got out a kunai from my pouch and threw it to the sand ninja sneaking up onto the platform.
'Why the hell isn't anyone coming to help? Damn, is everybody busy with the other ninja?!'
I didn't have a clue what was running through my head, but I flashed-stepped behind Orochimaru and swiped at his head with a kunai. He ducked just in time showing only a little surprise at my actions. I swung the weapon at his chest were his head once was to try take him off guard, but the bloody bastard simply gripped the blade and threw me over his shoulder like a rag doll.
I twisted my body midair and landed harshly on my feet. Pain shot up my legs but I tried to ignore it in favor of paying attention to the snake sanin before me. Said sanin rushed towards me with his own kunai headed my way. I knocked his weapon out of his hands only to have mine topple to the ground right after his. His hands wrapped around my neck and I was lifted of the ground.
He held me in place barley breathing. I was particularly paralyzed only able to watch as my vision blurred. Orochimaru smirked in satisfaction turning around to block Hiru-Sama's punch letting me drop to the ground.
I clenched fist releasing heavy breaths and looked back to the battle. I saw Hiru-Sama with his hand straight through Orochimaru chest. 'That looks painful.' Suddenly the physic snake man started laughing his ass off. In the blink if an eye Orochimaru had stabbed the third in the chest with a long Katana that was protruding out of his snake-like mouth.
I grabbed some shuriken from my pouch and threw them at his forked tongue and he released the Hokage. I limped forward and caught Hiru-sama before he fell. The snake was long gone.

"Hiroto?" The old man croaked out. He sounded so weak. "You won't make it will you?" It wasn't as much of a question as it was a statement. "no my child, but I am...very...proud of you...Hiroto." I nodded. "Arigato sir. That means a lot." I forced a smile. "Stay strong son." The light had slowly faded from his eyes as he took one final breath.
A crowd was forming around me as I laid the third Hokage down and took a step back.
'You were such a kind man. You never yelled at me when I went on my rampages. You didn't try to understand me you just accepted me for the piece of shit I was. You help me get over my past. You saved me. You helped me get on my feet, even gave me a job. Who's gonna help you with that everlasting paperwork now boss?'

"He had him. He fucking had him. I swear he did. Damn it! He had the bastard by the soul.' I didn't even realize I was crying until I saw the droplets hit the ground.
"Shit! Shit! Shit!
I should of killed that fucking snake!
Damn it! I should have killed him while I had the chance,
but I thought he had it!
He didn't have to die!"

"HIROTO!" My cheek stung but I didn't need to look to see who slapped me. "I fucked up Kakashi." Teams seven through ten, plus Iruka a couple of anbu were standing on the roof with a sad looks in their eyes.
I sniffled letting my tears dry on my face. 'Crying wont bring him back.' "Hiroto?" Kakashi tried again. I stood up dusting my clothes off. "Hn?" "What happened?" He gestured to the Hokage whose remains had been seal up and carried off. The area already starting to dampen with the heavy rainfall. "Orochimaru. Orochimaru happened."
