Hana Haruno was kidnapped as a child because of some stupid prophecy saying that she would be the strongest ninja. Just before she was put into the hands of evil, she was saved by a team of ninja from the Hidden Leaf Village. The sole survivor of th...
All the standing cheered. The Akatsuki had just lost their greatest weapon. There was nothing they could do now. We just had to defeat them, and the war would be over. I grinned, and the tailed beasts roared.
We turned to face Orange-Face and Madara. With the tailed beasts on our side, this would be as easy as blinking.
'You can still surrender,' Hashirama said. We could hear his voice clearly. 'You can spend the rest of your life atoning for you sins.' I turned and saw that Orange-Face's new mask had broken. I could see his um... damaged face clearly. I also saw that Kakashi-sensei was staring at him, a little shaken.

I jumped on Taskuyo and rode towards them. The others followed, even the tailed beasts. 'You think you've won?' a voice said, which belonged to neither Madara nor Obito. 'Did you really think the Great Mistress would have let you off so easily?' A half-formed, black figure stepped into our line of vision. 'Black Zetsu,' Madara said. 'What are you doing here?' asked Obito. 'You were supposed to attack the Feudal Lords.' Black Zetsu chuckled. 'As if I would take orders from you, little scum.' He came closer.
'Don't move,' I commanded. 'Or my very trusty friend will rip your head off.' Zetsu made a sound like he was clicking his tongue. 'Dear Hana,' he said. 'So brave and powerful, yet so naïve. Come join me in welcoming our true Queen.' I was stumped for a second there. 'What... Queen?' I asked. Zetsu suddenly lunged at Madara, and merged with his body. Madara trashed and squirmed, all the while saying one sentence he couldn't complete.
I froze when I heard him say "grand-daughter". I made no move to help him. I just glared and watched what was happening. 'Obito,' Kakashi-sensei said. 'What's going on?'
He was apparently talking to orange-face. He made no move to answer. He was too busy staring at his superior being... incapacitated.
'Obito!' Sensei said more urgently. 'What's happening?' Obito, aka Orange-Face, finally opened his mouth.
'I... don't know.'
Everyone was in shock. 'Do you mean to say,' I said. 'This is not part of you master plan?' He nodded. I grit my teeth. 'Shit.' Hashirama sighed. 'All we can do is wait now,' he said. We all stood tense, waiting. Naruto finally spoke. 'Kurama,' he said. 'Do you know what's happening?' Kurama grunted. 'No. I've never seen anything like it before.'
I raised my eyebrows. If Kurama, the meanest, strongest and the most knowledgeable of the tailed beasts hadn't seen it, no one had. 'I think it's taking over his body, though,' I said. 'Yes, seems like it,' Kurama agreed. Suddenly, Madara arched upwards, like in the horror movies. And then...
In a flash of light, this creature was standing in front of us.
