Hinata ran into the village, panting. She was really worried about Brandon. She met up with Ino, Shikamaru, and to her surprise, Tsunade.

"Hinata! What's the matter?" Tsunade asked.

Hinata stopped and huffed and puffed. "It's Brandon...he's battling a member of the Akatsuki!" Hinata said, nearly crying.

Tsunade's eyes widened. "What?!" She turned to Shikamaru. "Find Jiraya. Now."

Shikamaru nodded and vanished.

"Ino, Hinata, we need to get to him now!" Tsunade said.

Hinata and Ino nodded. The three women dashed off.

"Damn it, Brandon..." Tsunade said. "Please be careful..."

Brandon threw fireball after fireball at Kisame. Kisame dodged every single one.

"God damn it! Just get hit by one at least!" Brandon yelled.

Kisame did multiple hand signs. He summoned a water dragon which was headed toward Brandon.

Brandon launched his wind vortex at the dragon. The vortex swallowed the dragon, and swallowed Kisame.

Kisame yelled in pain as he was scratched and cut. Brandon made the vortex vanish. Kisame fell to the ground.

"You're good. I shouldn't expect less from someone like you." Kisame said. "However, it is odd for someone like you not to be tired. I wonder..."

Brandon growled. "I don't care what you think of me! I'll nail you!" Brandon said.

Kisame laughed. "I thought so...you're a Jinchūriki..."

Brandon glared. "Shut up! I won't believe any of your lies!"

Kisame threw his sword at Brandon. Brandon narrowly avoided it, but got cut in the process. His cheek was bleeding.

"Damn scum..." Brandon said.

Suddenly, Brandon heard footsteps coming his way.

Kisame smiled. He did multiple hand signs. "This should be fun..."

Brandon watched as the Kisame clone vanished. He turned behind him and screamed.

Tsunade arrived at a clearing with Ino and Hinata. She looked around. "Brandon?!" She yelled.

"Up here." A voice said.

Tsunade looked up to see Kisame standing there, with an evil smile on his face. He was standing on a branch.

"You! What did you do to Brandon?!" She yelled.

"Did you notice the tree next to mine?" Kisame said. He pointed to the tree next to his.

Hinata covered her mouth with her hands. Ino gulped. Tsunade nearly cried. Brandon was attached to the tree with a small black blade drove through his stomach. His cheek was bleeding. His right arm was bare, with huge slashes and blood. He had bruises and blood all over him, splattered across his clothes.

"Brandon!!" Hinata yelled, crying.

Brandon moaned as he looked up. "H-Hina...ta." He said, His eyes barely opening.

Kisame laughed. "My shark skin blade cannot be beaten! And it hungers for the Jinchūriki!"

Tsunade scowled. "What do you mean...Jinchūriki?"
