Battle for the Bridge Part 3

Dez101: I'm baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack! ( gets in reader's face and starts speaking like Mrs. Doubtfire ) And I've noticed that we've had a wee detail being left out of my story. Oh yes dearies. But don't worry, I've brought them back. ( holds up squirming sack ) CHIBIS!

Proceeds to dump out chibi Team 7

Dez: ( puts on The Mask. Gotta love Jim Carrey. )Now let's rock this joint. HEY! PACHUCO!

Chibis and author start swing dancing. Chibi Itachi holds up sign with disclaimer.

Sign: Dez101 owns nothing. If she did the Naruto series would've remained a yaoi as dez is a die hard NaruSasu shipper.

Dez: I SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIP IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTT!

Last Time

As Kakashi closed Haku's eyes, he noticed that only Naruto was standing behind him.

" Naruto," he asked slowly, " where's Sasuke?"

The only answer her it was a lowered head.

Kakashi felt many emotions fill him in that moment when he looked over at where the dome had been and saw the unmoving body. He had already found out from his clone that Kagome had died when it dispelled, but Sasuke too.

Had yet another generation fallen to the curse of Team 7?

Now

White.

That's all she saw around her. She was lying on her back, looking up at what she would assume to be the sky. As she lay there, she realized that she couldn't feel anything. No pain. No cold. No warmth. There was simply...

Nothing.

The female slowly sat up, finally realizing a change from her usual attire. The first thing she noticed was that her hair was no longer tied back with the usual bandanna and kunai but now blocked her vision as the ankle length hair fell in a curtain around her. With a huff, She flung the hair behind where it formed a small pile on the ground where she sat. The next thing she noticed was the very distinct lack of bandages covering her skin. Not that it mattered. The numerous seals that had covered her skin were no longer there. She marveled at the sight at the clear skin. Then she finally noticed the rest of her outfit. She wore traditional Miko garbs sans the shoes and socks, leaving her barefoot. All in all, she was a bit confused.

After the confusion, came panic. The usual turmoil and power struggle that had been going on in her body for as long as she could remember wasn't there. That shouldn't be though as the seals were gone. Her energy should be clashing around her, destroying everything in their wake n. But it wasn't.

"Am I dreaming?" she thought.

"No my dear, you're not awake though.." a gentle voice said behind the young girl. The girl quickly stood and turned around, her reflexes a bit slow. She didn't take that moment to curse her slowed movements but to gape at the figure before her. Even if they had never met, it was a face she and every member of her clan recognized. Especially since her portrait hangs on the wall of the clan head's study.
