Nothing is True
… Everything is permitted.
What is real?
What is not?
Is she just turning crazy or are other powers at work?
One thing is clear Kohana will get to the bottom of this and maybe change the whole Ninja-World at the same time.
S.I. Third Shinobi World War
!PLEASE READ AND REVIEW!
I thought long and heard what should be the next chapter.
I was unsure if I could write more original chapters since the secrets I wanted to reveal like where Carina/Sakuya Piece of Eden is come after Kannabi Bridge.
I thought of making a chapter about how Kohana gets her summons, but that would be a big revelation of a few things and it needs to happen after Kanabi Bridge.
So I thought let's just tackle that mission!
So enjoy Kannabi Bridge :D
Chapter 11: The Kannabi Bridge
Four years later...on the border to Kusagakura
"See Rin how simple it is?", said Kohana to her best friend, while the twirling orb of chakra rested on her right hand. "You completed already the three steps for the Rasegan, now it's just a matter of combining them."
The Medical-Nin locked frustrated at her own hand.
"I try Kohana-Chan, really do. Maybe Rasegan is not for me.", she signed.
"Now Rin.", joined Minato-Sensei the two girls. "Anyone gets Rasegan down at their own time, I needed four years to perfect it and Kohana bet me in completing it in two weeks."
This made Kohana blush and rub her neck.
"Only because I had Eagle-Vision to help me and I had you Minato-Sensei to tell me when I did something wrong."
Minato-Sensei tutted at her and gently patted her head.
"You have great talent Kohana, you didn't become Jonin for nothing."
"Thanks, Sensei."
She still felt it was too much praise since she didn't only have Eagle Vision and Minato-Sensei's help but also the visions of how his future son, Naruto would learn Rasegan.
It did feel a bit like cheating.
Even if she was now 13 years old, like her friends and team members, Kohana still had some Vision from the future. It wasn't as often as it was in the beginning, but they were still here.
And now the day she had feared the most had come.
The Kanabi Bridge Mission where Obito would sacrifice himself for their team and Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu would get him in their grappy hands, which would start a reaction that would leave all her team besides Kakashi and Obito dead and Minato and Kushina's unborn son Naruto on orphan and jailer of the Kyuubi.
Not gonna lie, Kohana was nearly pissing her pants.
Today would show if she could change the future.
Or was doomed to see this all unfold as her ancestor Haruno Sakuya did with the betrayal of her lover Uchiha Madara.
How she had trained for this day, become even a Jonin with Kakashi at the least Jonin-Exams in Konoha.
She hoped with all her heart that all the training and the new techniques she had learned would be enough.
That's when all heard someone fall on the ground hard.
They turned and saw Obito on the ground with Kakashi over him.
"Did I make it?!", asked the Uchiha breathless.
"No Obito you are late.", told him Kakashi with crossed arms. "Where did you think we would meet? As a true Ninja, you must follow the rules."
"Ah, whatever. I was on my way when an old lady asked me for directions. And I have something in my eye."
"Right, that's a lie!"
Rin and Kohana looked at each other and rolled their eyes. There they go again.
Thankful Minato-Sensei intervene.
"That's enough Kakashi. Obito just showed the old lady the way, right?"
"I also carried her bags!", added Obito and put his eye drobs in.
"You are too lenient, Sensei.", deadpanned the Hatake. "Besides it's impossible that Obito always meets people in need of help. Who doesn't follow the rules isn't worth being seen as Ninja. Isn't it so?"
This made Minato-Sensei laugh nervously, while Kohana handed Rin 5000 Ryo.
They both had a bet if Kakashi would today say his standard spiel of ruling obedient ninja. He had gotten into this habit after he and Kohana became Chuunin.
Next time Kohana would bet on it!
"Don't you have an ounce of goodness in your heart?", asked Obito, while he rubbed his eyes, at Kakashi. "You talk always about the rules. The main thing is your own self-control."
Before an argument broke out Rin pipped in: "Now stop it, both of you. We're all on the same team, right Kohana-Chan?"
The Haruno crossed her arms and kicked a hip out, which showed her black shorts from under her long split on both sides pink skirt.
"For me, you are both idiots right now. We have this discussion like any time we meet, it's getting old!"
"Kohana-Chan how could you betray me like that!", whined Obito.
"You're too easy on Obito, Rin-Chan.", said Kakashi to her, before he turned to Kohana. "We wouldn't have this discussion every time if Obito was punctually Kohana-San."
"What I'm saying, Rin-Chan!", waved Kohana at the two boys. "Idiots."
This made both idiots sweatdrop.
"Must this "Idiot" remind you that today is an important day for us, Kohana-San?"
Kakashi and Kohana stared at each other. In the end, the girl signed.
Well, it was true.
A while later they walked through the grasslands of Kusagakure.
Minato-Sensei told them full of pride: "As of today, Kakashi and Kohana are Jonin like me. And in order to increase our efficiency, we'll be splitting into two teams. After all, presently the Leaf Village is at an unprecedented low on military strength."
"Splitting up?", repeats Obito. "Then..."
"Yes, that's right. Kakashi will be captain of the four-man squad with Kohana, Obito and Rin. I will be working alone."
"Remember, we talked about this the other day, Obito...", reminded Rin. "About getting Kakashi-Kun and Kohana-Chan a gift."
Obito made a face but sent a smile to Kohana as she looked at him with a raised eyebrow.
"I remember doing something for Kohana-Chan, the other part I must have missed..."
"Sure, Obito-Kun.", chorused Kohana and Rin not believing it one bit.
Now it was time for the gifts, both new Jonin got from Minato-Sensei one of his Flying Thunder God Kunai.
They thanked him and Rin handed Kakashi a personalized special medkit, the boy gave his thanks.
The brunette handed Kohana a beautiful necklace with a mental red rose pendant.
Both missed the look of panic in Obito's face as Kohana gushed over her gift.
"My favourite flower, thank you Rin-Chan it's beautiful, I love you!"
"I love you more and you are welcome."
The best friends hugged each other tight and Rin gave her a kiss on the cheek, which made Kohana giggle and blush.
The cute moment was ruined as Kakashi held out his hand to Obito demanding his gift.
"W-What's with this hand?! I don't have anything to give you!"
"Whatever, but what a good friend are you not having one for your best friend."
Ashamed Obito looked at the sad-looking Kohana (and a murders-looking Rin, oh god he is going to get it, won't he?!) and felt the gift he had for her formally burning in his pocket.
But...after Rin's pretty gift...his seemed so blank.
The Uchiha bowed to Kohana.
"I'm so sorry, Kohana-Chan. I forgot your gift at home. When we will return to Konoha, I will give it to you.", he lied swiftly.
He so would buy her something new and trash his stupid little gift!
"It's okay Obito-Kun, you don't have to bow before me."
"It's probably for the best that we don't get anything from you.", mussed Kakashi. "It would be useless and would only get in the way."
Of course, this made Obito angry.
"I get why Kohana-Chan is a Jonin but how you became one I still can't figure out."
"You should talk."
"I'm Uchiha Obito of the Uchiha Clan! I'll surpass you someday! The minute my Sharingan awakens!"
"Everyone in the Uchiha Can be elite, right? So you shouldn't have to rely on something like that."
"What?!"
"Kohana-San beat me at the Jonin-Exams without her Kekkai Genkai after I blinded her temporarily. Only with her Fuin Jutsus and the Rasegan. You should take an example from her."
Having enough both girls stepped between the boys. Rin held Kakashi on the shoulders, while Kohana did the same with Obito.
"Stop it, you two!", begged Rin.
"Guys we have since a good four years being a team!", reminded Kohana. "Isn't it already time to let go of these stupid childish arguments?! We aren't only teammates but friends!"
Finally, Minato-Sensei intervened and led them to a flat boulder where he could explain their mission with the help of a map.
Talking and discussing it it seemed simple, yet no one knew that it wasn't the case. Mostly Kohana who was starting to get a bit of anxiety.
This was it.
Team Kakashi, must travel through Kusagakure in the midst of a conflict between Iwagakure and Konohagakure to destroy the Kannabi Bridge so as to stop Iwagakure from receiving their supplies, while Minato-Sensei would join the battlefront and kill as many ninjas he can. He would create a diversion for them.
With all discussed, they made their way to the border, before they would split up for their missions.
They walked through a forest with big-ass mushrooms, till Kakashi made them stop. Kohana wasn't far behind and activated her Eagle-Vision.
There!
An Iwa-Nin hid in a tree, she could see the red of the enemy colour clearly.
Kohana made hidden hand-sings to tell her team where the ninja was hiding.
Minato-Sensei signed a good job to her and gave his team instructions on how to proceed.
Everyone nodded and got ready, the Iwa-Nin not the wiser.
After years of using and training them with Kushina-Nee, Kohana made a Shadow Clone in her place and replaced herself at the exact moment with a log.
The Iwa-Nin was so concreted at Kakashi and his new technique, that he didn't realize that Kohana knew where his true self was hiding before he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his neck and how a body landed on him.
Over him was kneeling a green-haired girl with swirling golden eyes behind a pair of glasses.
He coughed up blood as Kohana Hidden Blade sunk deeper into his throat.
With a last pathetic groan, he dies.
Kohana flicked her Hidden Blade back into the arm guard and got into a prayer position.
"Requiescat in Pace.", she mumbled to the corpse and joined up with her team.
No one seemed hurt.
From her visions, Kohana knows that Kakashi should have been wounded on the shoulder.
So she already changed the course of destiny.
Good.
"Good work Kohana-Chan.", praised her Minato-Sensei and gave her a head pat. "You killed the Iwa-Nin before he could do significant damage. Kakashi be thankful for Kohana, your Chidori you shouldn't use that jutsu anymore. From what I could see, your focal point concentrated attack undoubtedly has power and speed, but it makes you move too fast to ascertain the opponent's counterattack. It's still on imperfect jutsu. Before we split, I'll tell you one more thing. For a ninja, the most important thing is teamwork."
***
It was now night and Team Minato made camp under a big tree.
Rin and Kohana slept facing each other, Kakashi with his back to Rin, while Obito talked with Minato-Sensei about Kakashi and his stubbornness with the rules.
No one saw how Kohana was frowning in her sleep.
Where was she?
Kohana looked confused around in the darkness she was in.
What was going on?
A bit unsure she started to walk, standing around wouldn't solve this problem.
Then slowly she saw a little light before her.
She walked up to it, till she saw something really strange.
It was a DNA-Helix.
But not only one, there were three Helixes.
How could this be possible?
"What kind of fucked up dream is this?", mumbled Kohana to herself.
This only could be a dream, so why didn't she wake up?
"The calculation showed this to be one of the many times we would meet.", said an unknown female voice. "I'm glad it's this version. It shows that you changed a signification amount."
Scarred Kohana turned around and her mouth fell to the floor.
Before her was a young woman.
Probably in her late twenties.
She had long green hair.
Blue Eyes.
And was clothed in Miko robes.
What Kohana shocked the most, it was like she looked into a mirror that made her look older!
"The fuck?!", she cursed.
What was going on?
The older doppelganger smiled.
"Are you surprised? Can't you guess who I am?"
Frowning Kohana looked from the three DNA-Helixes to the Miko.
Could it be...?
"You are...Sakuya."
"Here in the Shinobi Nations I was.", told her Sakuya, before she twitched and looked different. Now a woman with short brunette hair and brown eyes was before her. She wore glasses, a simple white hoodie with red accents, some plain dark blue pants and brown boots. On both her arms were Hidden Blades! What was freacking she also looked like an older version of Kohana, if she had brown hair and eyes."But in my birthplace, I was Carina Auditore. Anyway, I'm your ancestor and so much more."
"What do you mean by that, Sakuya eh Carina-San?", asked Kohana totally confused.
Carina stepped towards her and pointed at the DNA-Helix.
"Do you know why we possess a third Helix? It's because long ago the Isu, the true enemy, mated with us humans and we hybrids came to be. That's why you can use Eagle-Vision. The blood of people who consider themselves gods ran in our veins."
"That doesn't really answer my question."
Carina laughed.
"No, it doesn't. Sadly we don't have much time, my Piece of Eden, Hermes Cross, can only do as much. I hope this meeting will help you to find out the truth. I can give you a clue. It's not a coincidence that we look the same. Good luck on your way little me, may you have more success in our mission than I did as Sakuya and oh, if you get together with Obito give him a good kiss for me."
With a laugh, Carina pushed her.
The ground under Kohana broke in and she descended into darkness...
"Kohana-Chan are you okay?", asked her the next morning Rin worried.
They had split up from Minato-Sensei and were following Kakashi to their mission destination.
Currently, they took a lunch break.
"It's okay.", grumbled Kohana, rubbing an eye. "I just had...a nightmare."
"What did you dream?", wanted Obito to know.
Well, she couldn't tell them the truth, now, could she?
What should she say?
Her mouth was faster than her brain.
"Food eat people!"
This earned her WTF-Looks from Obito and Rin and even a raised eyebrow from Kakashi.
Yeah, she had no idea how she came to say this, but something in her told her that it was a reference from Carina's world.
"Damn, that's terrific.", agreed Obito shuddering, staring at his Bento-Box like it was gonna eat him alive.
"It was just a dream, let's finish eating and then go on with the mission.", told Kakashi.
They all agreed with a Yes captain.
After lunch, Kohana knew they were now in the Bamboo Forest where Rin would get kidnapped.
Golden swirled her Eagle Vision in her eyes, looking out for the Iwa-Nins when they would attack.
Their stupid Camouflage Jutsu wouldn't work on her Kekkei Genkai.
She saw them before Kakashi gave them the signal to stop since he smelled them.
Kohana already made two Shadow Clones. One stayed with Rin, while she made a Rasegan and her second Clone added Wind Chakra to it.
"Wind Release: Rasenshuriken!", she shouted and trowed the Jutsu at the incoming Bamboos.
The Rasenshuriken shredder them and flow into the direction of one of the Iwa-Nin turning him into bloody shredds.
The Haruno send a silent thanks to the beborn Naruto. Thanks to the vision of him creating Rasenshuriken she got it down. When he was finally born into this world she would give the cute baby a lot of kisses.
"Rasegan!", she heard her other clone shout.
She saw how it attacked the Iwa-Nin who would have grasped Rin, that Iwa-Nin was no more too.
A loud sign left Kohana.
She had done it.
She had done it!
She had changed the future!
Rin was safe!
Yes!
"Good reflexes, Kohana-San.", praised her Kakashi.
Obito and Rin agreed loudly with him.
"That new Rasegan was awesome! You need me to teach that!", begged Obito.
Feeling light and free since she hadn't in years the Haruno laughed goodhearted. "But first you have to learn normal Rasegan and Kagebushin before I can teach you it."
However, they celebrated too fast.
It was Rin who pointed out screaming: "I don't see the body of the big one!"
That's when Kohana felt how something hit her hard on her head.
As she fainted, the last she saw was Obito running up to her screaming her name.
***
Her head felt like it was split open like a coconut. Kohana groaned from the pain.
This headache was killing her.
"Ah our guest has woken up.", greeted her in the voice of the big Iwa-Nin.
The one she thought her clone had taken care of.
Damn it!
She was so fixed on saving Rin that she didn't think that someone else could become a prisoner!
And it had been her.
Under pain, she activates her Eagle Vision.
Okay besides the big guy, there was only another Iwa-Nin. If she was smart she could handle them.
"Now look at this, Aoki, the bitch who killed Kakko, has a Kekkei Genkai.", growled the big Iwa-Nin, gripping her by the ponytail, making her bite her lips.
She wouldn't give them the satisfaction of screaming.
This Aoki joined him. "I think I heard of it, Taiseki. It's from a new Clan Eagle Vision or something like that. Genjutsu is useless against her."
"So how should we get the information from her?"
"A good old torture session loses any tongue.", reminded Aoki with an evil grin.
Not gonna lie, Kohana was pissing herself, but she wouldn't give up.
She still had one trump card.
Slowly she started to rotate the chakra in her palms to destroy the robes that bonded her.
That's when they heard the sound of a clap.
The girl's heart beat faster. This was surely Obito and she bet Rin was with him.
This also meant Kakashi was turning up soon too.
She could turn this around for good!
"I'll take care of it.", said Taiseki. "In the meantime, lose the tongue of the bitch to get the information from her. But don't destroy her too much Tsuchikage-Sama would surely like having a new Kekkai Genkai for our village."
Aoki laughed and promised he would try.
The moment Taiseki left Aoki received a surprise, sadly not an enjoyable one.
"Rasegan!", shouted Kohana and thrilled her chakra sphere through his whole head.
It was disgusting.
Brain matter landed on her and she was bloody everywhere.
At least this time the enemy ninja was dead.
Slowly Kohana stood up and gripped her head.
All was spinning.
Not a second later she puked.
Did she have a concussion? It felt like it.
And using her chakra to free herself and then making a Rasegan didn't help at all.
"I-I have to move.", she mumbled, carefully walking towards the exit. "I-I need to get out of this Death Trap."
"Kohana-Chan!", shouted Rin's voice.
Blinking Kohana looked up and saw her three teammates.
"Guys..."
Her best friend ran up to her and started to heal her right away.
"It's okay Kohana-Chan you are safe now!", cooed the brunette.
Obito and Kakashi joined them.
The Uchiha had his Sharingan Eyes and was crying.
"I'm so glad you are okay!", he told her, gripping her shoulder.
"Did you kill the other Iwa-Nin?", asked Kakashi wearing a bandage over his left eye. "You did good Kohana-Chan."
"Guys...", Kohana tried again.
Why didn't her mouth work with her right now!?
"Just a little more Kohana-Chan.", reassured Rin. "You have a heavy concussion."
"We need to get out NOW!", finally Kohana shouted.
With her Eagle Vision, she had seen the Fuin Jutsu marking on the cave. It was probably a failsafe if the Iwa-Nin lost to an enemy in their hide-out.
No one would leave this place alive.
The Fuin Jutsu marking became visible and the whole cave started to shake!
"Dammit! Everybody, let's get out of here!", commanded Kakashi.
The green-haired girl couldn't even look that fast as Obito picked her bridal style and ran after Kakashi and Rin towards the exit.
Oh Kami would they make it?
Would destiny change its course?
Aren't I evil?
This is probably the worst cliffhanger I ever made! :D
I am so proud of myself XD
I can't wait for you to throw tomatoes at me and hear your thoughts!
Until next time ;D
!!!!PLEASE READ AND REVIEW!!!
