Ch 04

With my exhausted mental state due to a complicated Chkra extraction, I can barely stand up or even move.

"Hey....Hey....Mad...Madra!" I struggled to speak as I picked used the metal pole that was an Earth Hammer before

The reason why the Earth Hammer reverted to being a regular pole is due to the lack of continous Chakra input.

"Hey, are you okay?" Madara asked as he looked at me and his brother

"Your.. your.. brother is fine.... just take... us to a safe.. place..." I barely said as I continue to battle against my headache

"Okay then! I will head to the nearest house and leave the two of you there." Madara said as he carried us and escpaed to a random direction

"Regroup..regroup with...Aki...She...she is trying...to..lead..a group...Help..her." I barely spouted before finally succumbing to sleep

Aki PoV

I am Aki Uchiha. The daughter of Yume Uchiha and Himari Chinoike. I have my kjnd handsome twin brother who always protect and do his best to make me happy.

It has been 3 years since we start attending classes of the Clan and somehow we were separated. While I was engrossed in Ninjutsu and Genjutsu, Sai went ahead and became a Medical-nin.

You see, Sai is a very unusual person. He is someone who do not have the air of arrogance which I see from most of the boys. Not only that but he dislike being flashy and unlike our peers who were just playing around on who can perform the coolest jutsu.

When he started to become a Medical-nin, he became too absorbed in reading. He would usually leave the house early in the morning before attending the afternoon classes with us.

He is a silent person but once you know him personally, he was a caring and hapoy individual. Not only that but he was the best cook that I ever met.

As usual, I am about to meet Sai in the dining hall. It has been our usual routine to meet up during lunch time and talk about what happen in my class early jn the morning.

Genjutsu class is done during the morning, he didn't like to attend Genjutsu class since he regarded it as a form of attack for only a one on one fight.

He believed that it is far too limiting, which I disagree. However if there is something that I can comment to him is that he is a genius when it comes to Ninjutsu.

Although he only show average results when we are in class, he is actually at the level comparable to Madara.

Oh speaking of Madara, he is actually very similar to my brother. He is also silent but is actually called by almost everyone as the 'Genius' of the younger generation. Which I can't refute since he is actually very talented in Genjutsu and Ninjutsu.

Hehe, however I myself have a title. I am also called a Genius. I inpressed everyone by my talent in Taijutsu which even my brother said to be greater than his.

While I was walking to the dinning area, the alarm went off. I was gripped with fear since it is only used when there is an attack.

A teacher rounded all the students in the dinner then gave us a the mission of evacuating the civilians in our village.

I teamed up with my friends Umi and Niko and headed to the direction where our family is located. They were one of my closest friends that actually live near us.

So we ran as fast as we can when we were suddenly ambushed by a group of ninjas. My body instinctively moved away from the attacks but unlike me Umi and Nike were caught unaware.

A fireball was maintained by a ninja with the Yamanaka Clan symbol. After the fireball appeared, I saw the shadow of the Nara Ninja elongate and connect to Umi and Niko.

Something happened to my friends, they were suddenly stopped on their tracks like a statue. My world suddenly slowed down as I watched two ninjas appearing behind them and was ready to stab them to death.

I was gripped with fear that then turned into anger. While I was boiling in anger, I suddenly felt as if my mind is thinking faster and that my observation became stronger.

Without any more time, I started to form my handseals.

[Water Release: Water Cut]

[Water Release: Water Kunai]

I invoked two Rank C Ninjustsu in mere seconds which surprised not only my opponent but also myself since I normally take longer in deploying Ninjutsu.

I sent the Water Cut towards the ninja that was about stab Niko and the faster Water Kunai to Umi since her attacker is just about to pierce her skin.

However, even with my quick attack the attackers managed to land their hit albeit a shallow one since they need to evade my attacks.

Whike they were evading my attack, I ran quickly towards the ninja that was using the shadow ninjutsu.

[Earth Release: Rock Gloves]

I deployed as I was approaching my enemy and punched the middle aged ninja cleanly in the groin like what Saisei always told me. I first employed a feint as if I was aiming to his head which confused my enemy and therefore leaned backwards.

It might be due to our age difference that earned me my opportinuty since the guy sloppily evaded with a smirk on his face.

Upon impact, his face contorted in pain while the ither ninjas flinched a liitle as if they were the one that was hit.

My friend tenaciously released their own attacks even though they were enduring pain. They employed some basic moves with their right arm as they used their left hand to cover their wound.

As I witness them evade their death, I was suddenly filled with relief before going on a rampage.

I am barely aware if what I am doing but it seems like rage had taken over my body and I couldn't resist.

*HAHAHA WITH THIS POWER, I CAN KILL ALL THESE BASTARDS!!* I shouted in my mind as I defeated the ninjas around me

As I was about to head to another direction, I suddenly felt the familiar chakra of Saisei. I stopped on my tracks and see if he was okay.

"Sai! Thank God you are here!" I said with relief as I saw that he was unharmed

"If you want to survive this battle, deactivate your sharingan and focus on conserving your chakra!" Saisei shouted while he came crashing to opponent that was headed towards me

"ARE YOU STUPID! THIS IS A POWER THAT WOULD ALLOW US TO KILL ALL THOSE BASTARDS!" I shouted angrily since it was discussed back in the Genjutsu Class about the wonder of the Sharingan

"ARE YOU HEARING YOURSELF AKI?! Those are human lives!" He shouted back as he slapped me straight in the face

"How about you try to see how much Chakra you are consuming every second! If you can tell me that you are capable of using that for an hour or so, I am not going to stop you from what you are doing!" He argued in which I did as he told me and saw how much Chakra I am using

Like a person poured with cold water, I started to calm down from my power high and start to implememt the proper composure and mannerism of a ninja taught in class.

"I need you to gather each fighter to regroup and start to implement the formation that was taught to us in class. As we are right now, we are wasting our full potential." Saisei said like a tactician before leaving towards another direction

Seeing how serious Saisei is, I followed his instruction. It was a very logical answer since I can see how inefficient our peers when fighting.

It might be due to the difference in experience but we are in a total disadvantage. Not only were our opponents more experienced, the young ninjas of our clan are actually fighting sloppily and showing their arrogance.

Many were using their Chakra haphazardly and were unleashing huge jutsu without any thought. With my reasoning back, I remembered Umi and Niko so I quickly searched for them.

In the basics of classes, we are taught on how to heal other even if just a little bit. It is a common technique that was spread around in all clans and is renowned to be an easy technique in the basics but complicated when you progress for the stronger healing.

Good thing that Saisei woke me up from my rampage since Niko and Umi are in grave danger if I did not treat them quick.

Finding them was easy since I am still near the position before we were ambushed so I located them and took them inside a random house and started to use the Basic Mystical Palm Technique.

It is a blessing that I was born with an above average amount of Chakra since I still have some Chakra even though I was drained by the Sharingan.

As much as I would like to fully heal them, I wouldn't be able to fully heal two people in my considtion so I opted to the practical approach of healing them both to a non-fatal level and then patching them up.

"Umi, Niko. This is the best I can do with my amount of Chakra." I said as I barely held my tears due to their current condition

"It's no... use Aki...Use your chakra for more important things....*cough*..It would be too... too much even for you." Niko said as she coughed up blood

*THOSE EVIL BASTARDS!!* I raged inside me as I see my cheerful friend in such a sad condition

"Alway...Always...remember...us." Umi said with a smile even though there is blood flowing at the corners of her lips

"STOP SAYING THAT!! Don't lose hope! I am going to save you and we will play more in the river." I wailed as I intensified my healing jutsu

"I...wish... I wish we can stil...we can still play." Umi said while she looked at me with a tear stained face

"I... I don't want to die...but if you continue healing us...we... will only going to be a weight on you." Niko said as she tried to grab my hand

I firmed my grip even though it would inflict pain on them just to stop them from trying to pry away my hands.

I decided to scrap my plan of healing them barely and instead used up all my chakra to save them. I drained myself and in a stroke of luck I managed to actually heal them before passing out.
