The One and Only One; the story behind the crossed swords

{Chapter Four: Secrets Untold}
The sun rose early as Team Seven and Chiisude were just getting ready to leave. The only problem was.....
“Naruto! Get up!” Sakura and Chiisude snapped, kicking him. Naruto was still asleep and mumbling weird things to himself as he slept. “Sakura-chan, don’t worry, I’ll save you...!”
Sakura looked surprised as Naruto said some more things. “Get away from her, Sasuke!”
Sasuke turned around and looked at Naruto and the girls. “Did he just say my name?” he asked.
“No Sasuke, he was thinking of the person you are named after, duh.” Chiisude said flatly as she kicked Naruto. Jeez, Naruto sleeps in and I told Sakura that I wouldn’t wait for anybody! Oh well, suck it up, Yoritmoto, you are in it for the long hold of the time. I still can’t believe Naruto is still asleep, he didn’t stay up as long as me...Chiisude yawned and looked again at Sakura.
“Sakura-chan, there you are! Are you ok?!” Naruto mumbled, this time, it got Sakura mad. She picked up Naruto by the collar and punched him so hard, he flew all the way into the forests. By then, he woke up.
“Ouch, why does my head hurt?” he asked himself. Chiisude just smacked her head with her hand. I thought she said that she would get rid of that ‘Inner’ self by now...man that makes you so childish, Sakura. Then again, my inner self is still around, but I don’t use it that much, unlike you, Cherry Blossoms, you use it almost all the time.
Sakura came running to Naruto. “Get up! We have to go! Chiisude isn’t going to wait for anyone now!” Naruto was getting up and was yelling at Sakura about why she punched him into the forests. It ended up in a brawl. Chiisude came running in and separated the two. “Shut up, with your blabbing, this mission might take two months!” She snapped. Kakashi and Sasuke came walking in to the forests soon later.
“Now, if you are done fighting, lets go.” Chiisude said, turning around and leaving. Naruto took the bag that Kakashi was holding and then the team was off.
Along the way, Kabel and a group of road ninjas were waiting for the team. They had left the base last night and were there the whole entire night. Kabel was yawning as the hot sun was starting to cook some of the road ninjas.
“Master Kabel, when are they coming?” One of the road ninjas asked for what seemed to be the millionth time.
Kabel laughed a little bit sarcastically. He took out his binoculars and started to look around the bushes. “Don’t worry, Shouhei, they will be here.” He withdrew his sword out and Shouhei, the red headed road ninja, read the inscription. The Master of All Road Ninjas shall fall down and be taken over by a Road Ninja himself.
Shouhei gasped. “Master Kabel, that sword, what does the inscription mean?”
“It means....that I, a simple road ninja myself, shall kill the master, in this case–Silver.” Kabel said. “You and many of the road ninjas that Silver has caught in his so called freedom net have agreed that I, Kabel, shall cut open the freedom net and the catcher its self.”
Another one of the road ninjas, Sen, a blond haired ninja, stared coldly at Kabel. “Why do you ever wish to kill Master Silver, Master Kabel?”
Shouhei snapped back at Sen. “Not this again, you’ve always asked Master Kabel why he wants to kill Master Silver! Stop it already, Sen, you will be killed by one of the weakest opponents that we meet, in this case, Chiisude -chan.”
“Alright, shut up you two, and keep quiet...all of you.” Kabel said, getting up. He started to look around, noticing that there were no other ninjas except for the road ninjas behind him. Kabel closed his eyes, a signal to any shinobi that a ninja has lost their guard, and thought about the dreadful life he has been put up with.
Kabel was always a rebel, one that could never get along with the people of his village hidden in the rain. The father, a merchant, selling things and oddities from around the villages surrounding the area. Kabel will never regret the time when a rich gambler gave him a cart of an alcoholic drink famous within one of the smaller countries and villages.
Kabel’s father sold it, and kept a few bottles to himself. When he had drank too much, he became toxic. Kabel, as a child, was often beaten up at night when his father returned. Kabel started to notice that his father was getting home later and later. But like the rebel his is, Kabel did not care at all.
One night, Kabel’s father never returned. When he had gone out to look for his mom, she was dead. And right by the corpse, one bottle of the drink, sold by his own father. At that point, Kabel would try to kill him with his father’s own merchandise.
Chiisude did not care to run as fast as she would normally do when on a mission. She stayed behind Naruto and rode the wind that the other ninjas were making. Her job today was to watch out for any traps, bombs, and things that Silver would had already put into their paths. Lets just hope...Silver didn’t kill the hidden survivors.
Sakura was looking back at Chiisude. “Hey Chey! Why aren’t you going as fast as you normally do?!”
Chiisude looked up. “Why do you still have that stupid thing about Sasuke? Eh, Sakura?”
Sakura gave a flat look at Chiisude and then turned back to her team mates. Kakashi was in the front with a copy of the map that Chiisude got when Dai had came around the trees. He stopped on a branch and looked around. The others stopped on the same limb as him and looked out.
“What’s wrong, Kakashi-san?” Chiisude asked. Kakashi was looking in front of him instead of right beside him or below.
“This seems too easy, isn’t that right, Chiisude?” Kakashi asked.
“Well, yeah. I’m a Chuunin for god’s sake, why aren’t there any traps? We’ve been traveling for almost two hours now, there should have been a trap around here!”
“But...maybe there isn’t.” Sasuke said.
Chiisude snapped back and pointed. “Shut up! The only reason that they wouldn’t put traps would be because I was too cunning for them and—Wait, that’s it!”
“What is?” Sakura and Naruto asked.
“I knew it! My brother kept on saying how good of a ninja I would be when I grew up before he killed everybody, he’s placing traps where you wouldn’t think they would be!”
“But—isn’t that the point of having traps?” Naruto asked. Chiisude rolled her eyes.
“No it isn’t...in the Yoritmoto Clan. Specialized ninjas from the Clan like Silver and I put traps in the most obvious
and least obvious places. You see, the Yoritmoto’s have another set of traps that are different from any
other ninja clan’s set. They use ninjas to wait and set traps to get the enemies. Once they are caught, they appear.”
“What? I lost you when you said Specialized Nin.” Naruto said while turning around.
“In other words, the traps are like genjutsu, they fool you!”
Kabel and the other ninjas appeared. “That’s correct, Chiisude-san!”
The road ninjas surrounded the area and withdrew their swords. Naruto jumped back to where he was.
“Thanks for explaining that long and boring process that your brother had to explain to us about two hundred times. We will sure give you a parting gift...of death!” Kabel sneered jumping down to where Chiisude and Team Seven were. “Road
ninjas, attack!”
The Road ninjas jumped down and started to attack. Chiisude took out a Melliya Fan while others took out a Kunai. The road ninjas swiped their sword around and others dodged. Sasuke found an opening and did hand signs.
“Fire Style!! Fire Ball Jutsu!”
The road ninjas dodged and came in for the kill. Sasuke moved around and Chiisude just watched.
“Bring it on!” Chiisude yelled at Kabel, pointing her fan.
Kabel smiled and then smirked. “Alright then, this is will very fun to challenge the....” He looked around at the Kohona ninja, then turned back to Chiisude. “Second....youngest Yoritmoto...”
Naruto listened to Kabel and ran over to help Chiisude. “What do you mean ‘the second youngest Yoritmoto’?! Chiisude is the youngest, believe it!” Oh, you don’t want to know, Naruto. Please...
“Why, you don’t know?” Kabel smiled, attacking Chiisude. She took her fan and threw it at Kabel.
“Shut up!” she yelled. Chiisude ran over and gave a couple of fast punches to Kabel.
“A—long time ago, when Chiisude was five, there was...” Kabel began, then Chiisude kicked his head up.
“You can never tell anything about what happened eight years ago!” Chiisude snapped, throwing some shurrikens. Sakura stood behind Kakashi as the Road ninjas tried to attack.
“Ha, ha, you can’t do anything...little kunoichi!” a road ninja said while attacking behind Sakura. Sakura screamed and tried to run away, but some other ninjas blocked the way.
“HELP!!!” Sakura screamed. Sasuke turned his head and noticed that Sakura was trapped. Naruto also did the same thing. And both ran to Sakura.
Chiisude and Kabel were fighting with everything they had. Man, do those ninjas like Sakura.... Kabel attacked Chiisude and the weapon in her hand plopped out.
“Eight years ago, when the whole Yoritmoto clan was still alive. Wait, lets start thirteen years ago, January thirteen....” Kabel began. Chiisude got so mad, she ran as fast as she could and pushed Kabel off the tree limb.
“Shut up, what you are about to say is a lie!” Chiisude snapped.
“Or is, the same exact twin of Jinnifuru Yoritmoto?” Kabel yelled. The members of Team Seven looked back and Chiisude started to get even madder.
“Who’s Jinnifuru Yoritmoto?!”
From da1nonly1 to your very soul: Wow! What a chapter! Anyways, as you know, my other chapters are hard to read. I dunno why, BTW, but I tried to change the margins. I hope this works! And that the italics were colliding with the regular text, so Chiisude’s thoughts are now underlined. I’m sorry about the inconveniences. Problem A: Microsoft Word doesn’t work, when ever I save, it goes on to this other program. Problem B: Julie, the wonderful person who puts this fan fic up, says that she doesn’t recognize the other program. So, here I am, with this other program! Oh well, happy reading!
