Cap 155: Rebellion (2)

"Danzo!" - roared Hiruzen in fury. He knew that his old friend had been responsible for the Uchiha Massacre, but he never thought the motive was so disgusting.

"This is the difference between us, Hiruzen!" - Danzo exclaimed as he continued to laugh - "I sacrificed my arm, my eye, hundreds of lives for the supremacy of our village! And now it is time for me to collect everything I earned for all those sacrifices!"

"You'll never win, Danzo!" - roared Hiruzen as he summoned Enma.

"I will, old monkey," replied the War Hawk as he dodged his opponent's attacks. "Though your presence makes things a bit difficult... a pity Orochimaru couldn't end your life.

"Hiashi! Move your fucking ass!" - exclaimed Tsume as she helped the Anbu of Hiruzen - "Go out and try to calm those bastards down! You're one of the strongest shinobis in the village!"

"Ok!" - exclaimed the Hyuga as he jumped out the window.

"Inoichi, Choza, Shikaku!" - exclaimed Hiruzen but his expression changed when he noticed how the surroundings were beginning to change - "How dare you betray us, Kurama clan!"

"I'm sorry, Hiruzen... but Danzo's offer is far better than living as outcasts because of their fear of us" - replied the replacement leader of the Kurama Clan.

"Tsunade, get Kushina and Mikoto out of here!" - exclaimed Hiruzen - "You know very well what will happen if something happens to them!"

"I know, old man!" - exclaimed the large-breasted blonde woman as she released her entire chakra to break the illusion.

The Kurama clan could make the illusions they created real, but that did not remove the flaw that they could still be easily broken if one was attentive to the circumstances.

"Ino-Shika-Cho! You know what to do!" - roared the Sandaime as the three men nodded and hurled themselves at the Kurama leader.

"You are making a futile effort, Hiruzen," Danzo snorted as he continued to fight his old partner.

All was chaos within Hokage mansion, at least for all but Homura and Koharu.

"I still don't believe how we did this..." - Homura muttered as he sighed ruefully.

"It is the best option for Konoha," the old woman replied, "Hiruzen is no longer fit to rule our village..."

"But..." - said the old shinobi.

"It's no use thinking about this... remember that we can't go back any longer" - answered Koharu seriously - "Now we'd better continue with Danzo's orders and capture those two women... they hold Konoha's destiny in their hands"

* * * * *

"What the fuck are you assholes doing?!" - Kakashi roared with fury as he saw how former comrades were attacking other shinobis and civilians.

"For Danzo-sama!" - the rebels exclaimed.

"Shit! What do we do, my rival?!" - Gai asked as he knocked out as many people as possible, but it was getting harder and harder. If it were only killing, then everything would be simpler, but the problem was that these enemies were none other than his fellow Konohanin.

"I don't know Gai... but we're running out of options" - answered the silver-haired man - "Yamato!"

"I know, Senpai," he said as he summoned a great many trees and vines to hold the rebels.

"Kurenai! Can you use your Genjutsu on a large scale?" - Kakashi asked as he gritted his teeth and knocked out another Konoha shinobi.

"I have never attempted anything of such magnitude so I cannot give you an answer," the red-eyed kunoichi replied coolly. She couldn't believe how everything had changed in just a few minutes - "But I'm going to try!"

Fire, screaming, looting, thousands of crimes were being sighted in Konoha as the rebel forces advanced.

"Anko!" - shouted Tsunade as she headed for the group - "We have to get Kushina and Mikoto back to the mansion!"

"What the hell is going on, Tsunade-san?!" - Anko exclaimed as she ignored everyone else's words and began killing those who came to her.

"Anko! What the fuck are you doing?!" - Kakashi roared in fury.

"Don't you see?! I'm killing the traitors!" - Anko roared back as she shifted her focus to the blonde who was carrying a pair of pained Kushina and Mikoto - "Tell me what's going on"

"As you saw, Danzo appeared and started a coup d'etat" - said Tsunade seriously - "We still don't know how but he has 50% of Konoha's troops under his control"

"Wait! Kushina-sama and Mikoto-sama are pregnant?!" - Kakashi exclaimed as he noticed the bellies of the two women. He quickly connected the dots and his eyes burst open - "Shit! Take them back to the mansion, now! We can't let anything happen to them!"

"?" - the others didn't understand what he was trying to say but decided to follow his instructions. If he was this scared then it was better than nothing happened to those two women.

"I will go with them, Tsunade-sama please stay in this place, we need as much fire as possible" - said Anko with a stern face.

"Shizune, you will go with Anko and protect those two.

"Hai!" - exclaimed the aforementioned as the two Kunoichis created a Kage Bunshin to carry the two pregnant women.

"Good luck" - said Tsunade coldly as a severe expression appeared on her face - "Kakashi... I know you love Konoha more than I do... but I won't let this go on so I will fight without mercy..."

"I knew you would say this..." - sighed Kakashi while showing a serious expression - "I understand, if we can, we'll knock them out but we're allowed to use lethal force"

Everyone present felt bad when they heard this but they still nodded. It no longer mattered if they were allies before, now they were traitors trying to destroy Konoha and there was nothing to change that.

"There is only one destiny for traitors..." - Kakashi said coolly.

"Death!" - roared the other shinobi as they hurled themselves at their enemies.

* * * * *

"That bastard Danzo knew how to choose the right moment to attack..." - said Anko coldly as she saw how there was fire all around - "Foxy-kun left for training with Jiraiya and we don't know when he'll be back..."

"He made sure that many months would pass without his return so that he could start his attack" - added Shizune while looking around - "I knew that man was no good... but I never thought that he was responsible for the death of my uncle and the death of Tsunade-sama's younger brother"

"Okay, more points on my 'Men to Torture to Death' list..." - Anko said coolly.

* * * * *

"What the fuck is going on?!" - Sakura exclaimed in terror at the sight of the chaos.

"Less talk, more killing," said Tayuya as she summoned her three demons and commanded them to kill anyone who approached them with ill intent.

"Girls!" - exclaimed Haku, who was accompanied by Kiba.

"I heard some things while coming to this place!" - exclaimed the Inuzuka - "Danzo is waging a rebellion!"

". . ." - Princess Yamanaka could only grit her teeth in fury as the image of her father appeared in her mind - "We have to get to safety first and think of a plan!"

"I was thinking the same thing" - said Shikamaru, who was accompanied by the other boys - "It seems we are all. . . now we have to think about where to go"

"Simple, let's go to the Uzumaki mansion... it's the safest place in this fucking village" - answered Tayuya seriously.

"But we can't let the innocent suffer while we get to safety!" - Hinata exclaimed as she held the hand of her frightened little sister.

"And what do you want to do?! Do you want all the villagers you see to come with us to the mansion?!" - exclaimed Tayuya angrily - " Do you even think about the consequences?! What if one of those refugees is one of those fucking traitors?! What if they open the barrier of the mansion?!"

". . ." - Hinata was silent when she heard this because she did not argue to say otherwise.

"I have to say that I agree with Tayuya..." - Shikamaru said - "That's why we'll go to the Uzumaki mansion first to get to safety, then we'll think about what to do... but in this crazy situation, we'd better think through our movements because as the heirs of the Konoha shinobi clans, we have a great deal of weight as hostages..."

". . ." - silence again invaded the place as the young shinobi looked at each other.

"Onee-chan..." - said Hanabi with fear.

"Quiet, Hanabi-chan..." - Hinata smiled - "Everything will be fine..."

Hinata did not hesitate any longer. As much as it hurt her to see others suffer, her younger sister was much more important than a stranger. She was kind, but that didn't mean she would endanger her little sister just for a moment of heroism.

"Let go," Shikamaru said as the others nodded firmly.

* * * * *

" You' re predictable..." - said Koharu, who was surrounded by a large number of shinobis. She and Homura were silently watching Shizune and Anko with a condescending smile on their faces - "Now... give us those two women and we promise you that your fate will not be as cruel as the rest of the women of Konoha"

"Don't even think about it, you old shit," snorted Anko as she looked coldly at the woman in front of her. "I won't let you lay a hand on Kushina-san or Mikoto-san"

"A pity," sighed the old woman as her eyes sharpened. "You know what to do, as a reward, you can do whatever you want with those two"

"I don't think that's possible..." - said a cold, hateful voice.
