Chapter 31: Bond of Spirits

"Alright. I need a clone. I refuse to use an actual person as of yet." She said. "Temari? Kankuro? I'm also going to need you both on stand by. Or Temari can go home and make some more food. We're going to need it after this." She said. Temari ran off, heading back to the house to start another meal.

"Alright. Gaara. This is something I've put together. You need to physically manifest your chakra. Then, in this order, you must perform a set of hand signs." She said, demonstrating them. "Once done, it SHOULD work. It'll put our victim into an illusion in which an illusion of my curse mark demon and Shakaku appear and combine. Once done, form this handsign." She said, gripping her left index and middle finger.

"Concentrate and the rest falls into play. If we do this right, it should kill our opponent or severely injure them. Nothing happens if it's done wrong but we can't practice more than once. The amount of chakra it uses is absolutely crazy." She said. He nodded, understanding her then closed his eyes.

She walked next to him, nodded at me, then closed her eyes. I sent out a shadow clone that stood in front of them. In almost no time at all, the both had their chakra circling their bodies. They both lifted their hands and performed the required sets. "Special Technique." She began, gripping her two fingers. "Bond of spirits." She finished. I could almost see two whisps moving and becoming one.

They both looked at the clone and watched as it fell to its knees and then scream in pain. "Shadow me." I heard her tell Gaara. She raised her left hand in the air, him copying almost immediately. They both moved their arms in a certain pattern, the clones body jerking with each move. "What is going on?" I asked myself. They brought both their hands up, palms facing the clone.

They both pushed their hands forward and the clone froze up and fell to the ground before disappearing into smoke. When the clone disappeared, both of them gave a heavy sigh, clearly showing mental exhaustion. "That went perfectly." She said. Temari had come back, carrying two plates of what looked to be curry. "Eat up, you two. It'll help." She said, handing them plates. They dug into their food, shoveling it in their mouths.

"What in the hell was that?" I asked. "Give us about 10 minutes and we'll show you." She said looking at Gaara for confirmation. He nodded, his cheeks puffed out from the food. The time passed feeling like the slowest 10 minutes of my life. "Alright! You both ready?" Azamuku said, getting up. Gaara stood and nodded, looking at me as I nodded too. "Alright. Exactly the same, big brother." She said.

Before me, I saw them standing next to each other in a mirrored hell bent version of our world. They performed the hand seals and stood their ground. "Make a clone. This has to happen fast. Ten minutes wasn't enough." She said. I pushed a clone out and as I did, I saw a transparent version of Shakaku and Azamuku's seal demon. They swirled into a whirlpool of one demon which gave a horrifying image.

"Bond of Spirits." They both said. Here it comes. They raised their arms up, slashing at the air, sending the fusion at the clone. I watched as it threw it around like a rag doll. They pulled their arms back, then thrust them forward, palms facing the clone. In response, the fusion reared back and threw itself through the clones body. It disappeared and the illusion ended. I stood there standing in awe and horror.

I heard a whimper come from her as my attention quickly snapped to her. Her body wobbled slightly before giving in and falling over. I ran and caught her, catching Gaara too. "That is only supposed to be used once a day because of the amount of chakra it takes..." Azamuku said. "Next time, don't perform it twice, you idiots." I said, scolding them.

The bond they have must be pretty damn strong if the could fuse their chakra so easily. Just like the bond I have with her. "Temari. Let's get these two back inside. They need to rest." I called. She nodded and grabbed Gaara while I carried Azamuku and walked back.
