Chaos stood in front of the wall surrounding the village and took out a scroll. "Question. What...is the flight velocity of an unladen swallow?" Unsealing everything inside, he picked up a clay disk and pulled out the Cerberus. "Answer. Not fast enough." He tossed the disk into the air and shot it. "This is the forty five caliber three round shot Cerberus, my own personal invention." He pointed to the clay shards, "That is a target disc, messenger birds, or the head of the person you were just aiming at." He motioned to the arsenal behind him. "Those are my other little pet projects. Do I have your attention?"

"Alright, you have my attention," Tayuya said to him. "What do we do?"

"As long as they don't break the wall, they have to come up and fight pass us to get in," Chaos stated. "That's why we build them, even if ninja can scale the walls. There is no way to defeat this as is, only in killing them before they get up it. Is there a fuinjutsu master here?"

"I'm good with them," a chunin said. "What do I do?"

"I have a scroll here detailing a seal that absorbs chakra. I'm not good enough with seals to use it but hopefully, you are. Apply it to the walls, a large one every hundred feet, and sustainment seals every ten in between."

"Are you mad!? This wall measures over a thousand feet long full circle! That is over a hundred seals and Taki is within the patrols!"

"I know! But are they coming from all around the village!?"

"No," the scout that reported them said in realization. "They are heading right for the western wall."

"Fortify the western wall with the seals. Don't just stand there, DO IT!" Chaos tossed him the scroll and he ran, taking two teams of genin to help him. "These things behind me are different versions of the Cerberus. As a whole, they are called 'guns'. As you can see, I don't have many. The best snipers come up here." Dozens both genin and chunin. "Alright, these have a farther range of accuracy than kunai and shuriken, a lot farther. It also doesn't take a throw to work. Just good eyesight and a calm, steady squeeze." He went through the laid out weapons and hung a target on the wall. Stepping back, he showed them how to use it. "Line up the sights. Look pass them, at the target where you want to hit. No movements. On the exhale..." He squeezed the trigger, hitting the center. "There isn't much time so we can't practice. Remember what I said, exactly, and do it." He holstered the Cerberus and started grabbing weapons. "Pistols are held just I had. These longer ones with the stock in the back hold right against the shoulder, good and tight. Same rules."

"What about these huge ass ones," Tayuya asked.

"Those are cannons," Chaos told her. "The lead balls next to it are the rounds. Those goes on the walls or on the ground behind it. Fire up into the air, down on the forces on the other side."

"And the sticks," a genin asked.

Chaos smirked at him, "Nitro. High power explosives."

"What are they for," he asked.

"Those are going to clear the forest around the walls. When the enemy is inside the blast zone."

"And these," Tayuya said, holding up a cylinder object with a pointed head and fins at the end, similar to an arrow.

Now Chaos really grinned, "Grease Fire, Nitro...anything you can think of going inside."

—oo000oo—

Fū slid her ninja-to from the sheath on her back, taking a deep breath. Something inside told her that things were going to go horrible on this mission. She didn't know why by she knew, just that she knew. And she was there to prevent the unexpected, or at least deal with it. The plan was simple, an hour before sunset they would attack. With the sun in Oto's eyes, they wouldn't see them in the shadows of the forest. This time was also chosen because they received word that not only had their spies seen the Otokage and the village's most powerful elite, the Sound Five, would not be there. And with the second strongest, the jonins and jonin senseis out on missions, it was the perfect time to strike, crippling the Oto forces. And with the main fort, Otogakure, in their possession, Oto would be dead in months and the Land of Rice would belong to the Land of Waterfall, with just the Land of Iron in between. All that was needed was for nothing to go wrong. She scoffed, 'Yeah, that's going to happen.' Granted, there was a lot of breathing room for the plan, so somethings could go wrong, but the key point, the only point was to take the village, destroying anyone that got in her way. "I should be up front general," she told him.

"No, Fū, in the game of chest, pawns go first. The knight must stay back to take the brook or bishop," he told her. She frowned at him, always claiming her the knight. To piece that can move in the most unpredictable way, that can take others that can't take it. Though she found it kind of nice, she frowned at the term. This wasn't a game, these men and women were her comrades, they had shed gallons of blood together. He lost the game, they lost their lives.

An explosion ripped from the center of the forward line and spread outwards, killing and wounding many as it spread like a ripple outward. "NO!"

The general nodded, "Thus the use of pawns. No surprise attack, send the reserves!" Fū stared in horror, fifty brave men and women, sacrificed just for a test of defenses!? "Worry not, Fū, we will win and their sacrifice will not be in vain."

"They better not, general," she growled. The explosions stopped five hundred out from the wall. "Why so far?"

"To clear it, they want to see us."

"Archers," Fū stated. "Bring up the shields!" She raised her binoculars and looked at the wall.

"What do you see?"

She lowered them a moment and looked through them again. "Those aren't bows. I only see three groups of maybe a dozen, they are armed with...I don't know. I don't like this general."

"...Agreed, but we still attack. All units, get within range of that wall and bring it down!" They charged forward, many holding out shields to block the soon to be incoming fire.

"Its too far," Fū said, still looking at the cleared terrain. "Why so far?"

"READY," came from the center of the wall. Fū looked at the owner of the voice and saw a demon. "READY!" It raised its sword up in the air. "CANNONS FIRE!" What followed was the loudest explosions Fū had ever heard, yet she saw none. Then she heard it, whistling. Looking up, she swore she saw objects rising in the air...and now falling. They fell, dozens of them, right on the charging men and women. They hit with enough force to tear humans apart. What worst, they exploded moments later, sending shrapnel everywhere. Soon, the sounds of charge was replaced by the screams of the dying.

"The brook," the general muttered.

"Do something!"

He thought about it a moment, "...Those flew high in the air for a reason, it is coming from over the wall. Get within the range of fire, and underground at the explosions!" He turned to Fū, "Can you get in there and take out whatever is doing that?"

"Damn right I can," she told him. "Give me a minute before the next charge." She sat down in the lotust position and focused. Golden chakra flowed around her and formed a pair of insect wings from the small of her back. "General, the enemy general, that oni, is mine." Spreading the wings, she flew up into the air. Looking down at the field of dead, she went up and saw them. Giant metal tubes similar to fireworks launchers. Oddly enough, she saw rocket fireworks behind them. That was when she remembered noting a slight oil smell on the way in. "General, get out of there," she shouted into her radio.

"FIRE ROCKETS!"

"NO!" She flew in their way, trying to destroy as many as possible. Fifteen flew into the sky, and she flew at them, destroying several, before following the few that remain. Five hundred feet to the oil, six remain. Four fifty, five left. Three twenty five, four. Two eleven, three. One seven, two. Fifty, one. "Almost...there!" She reached out a hand, getting it burned in the fire. She could feel the fin. "LITTLE MORE...THERE!" It started spinning, going up into the air instead of down. Hovering a moment, she said, "That bastard is good but not..." The rocket exploded in a shower of burning oil. It burned the pitch that cut off their escape and now pushed them into the cannon. She failed... "DAMN HIM!" She flew back as fast as she could, hoping to prevent them from being slaughtered. The cannons already started firing again. Seeing one coming at her, she cut it in half along with the burning explosive tag on it. In a single strafe, she cut apart the crews manning the damnable weapons.

"Tayuya, take over, stick to the plan," the oni shouted before separating it's sword into two and spreading its own wings. "I have the aerial."

"I'll kill you," Fū shouted, flying at him so hard, they flew out over the battle field.

Behind them, this 'Tayuya' the oni shouted for began shouting orders. "Wait for it! Pick your shots!" With the artillery dead, the Taki ninja quickly ran forward.

"This village will burn," Fū growled, swords still locked.

"No, you will fall." He went for a stab and Fū didn't bother to stop him. His swords bit at her silk clothing...and stopped.

"It's hopeless," she taunted. "These silks were made by the Seven Tails! Nothing can get through my armor!"

"Yeah!? Well, your armor may have been made by a demon, but my swords were made by the same guy who made the one on Heroes!" He started slashing at her with a fury she only found in herself before. Their blades dance up and then down, trading offense and defense back and forth with him even using his wings as shields. When the ninja were just two hundred feet away, the demon smirked and again, Fū knew horror. More explosions, not as big as the cannons, but far more numerous, rang out. She could see them, most hit the ground, but enough found human flesh to nest in. Enraged, she drew more of the chakra out, making another set of wings grow, increasing the fury of her attacks. The oni fell back more and she went for a low stab. He crossed his swords and pushed them down. She was ready, already knowing what he would do. At this point, he would jump back, unable to attack anyway. The silk on her free hand wrapped around the arm, becoming another blade, ready for him to remove the blades. He didn't, the oni raised his steel boot and kicked her in the face, breaking her nose. "AAGH!" He tackled her to the ground, crossing the blades over her neck and embedding them into the ground. She went for stab only for her sword hand to be nailed into a log by a dagger. She did stab with the silk blade though. The tip found his stomach...only to scratch it, barely drawing blood, and breaking flesh. That hand was also stabbed into the log she laid on. Rage covering the pain, she kicked, bit, and head-butted, anything to hit him, even sending out her silks to strike him. His face snarling in rage, he began to rip her clothes off until she was in nothing but her panties and bra. "That aught to calm you down," he said, throwing the clothes aside. He snapped his own nose back in place and looked down at his own body. He saw a decent amount of cuts and tears, but far too little, Fū realized. "I don't cut well," he said with a smirk. He spread his wings and frowned. "Man, these are going to scar." Looking back, they heard no more gun fire and both saw that the remaining Taki ninja were scaling with rope, unable to stick to it with chakra. They were now fighting ninja to ninja. "Its over, you lost," he mused.

And she knew it, "...Please, accept our surrender, spare us and the wounded."

He looked at her and nodded after a moment. "Make the order."

"Taki shinobi, fall back and surrender, we lose," she said into her radio.

"Oto Shinobi, let them fall back, we win. Send ninjas out to collect the wounded and honor the dead." He looked down at her and said, "If I give you back your clothes, will you behave?"

"Yes. I am Fū, jinchuuriki of the Seven Tails."

He froze what he was doing and looked her in the eyes. As gently as he could, he pulled out the daggers, "I am Chaos, jinchuuriki of the Nine Tails."

"No wonder I lost," she muttered, rubbing her hands as she let the chakra go after closing her wounds.

—oo000oo—

Chaos led Fū into the village. "I'm sorry, Fū, I had no choice. I was here too."

"You're lying, you're not sorry," Fū said, calling bullshit.

"You're right. Though I regret that so many died today, it would have happened one way or another. You're men are really lucky though, the Oto ninja are horrible shots with guns."

She sighed, "That we are. The general?"

"We haven't found him for sure, but there was a few that didn't get away from the fires in time. He might have been there."

"...How many?"

"Out of the six hundred, two hundred, thirty seven are dead. Two hundred, fifty three wounded, several in critical, and ninety eight fine, and twelve unaccounted for."

"Kami," she said, looking around. She barely saw an Oto wounded, no dead in sight. If they had any casualties, they were so few that it was impossible to see. A force of a hundred and fifty, mostly inexperienced genin, fought off jonin and chunin, along with a jinchuuriki from Taki, numbering four times their size. "What becomes of us?"

"You are held prisoner until either the Otokage decides or a bargain is struck," Tayuya told her, walking up to them. "Chaos...thank you. You saved our asses."

"You're welcome, precious."

Tayuya turned back to Fū. "But that is just for the normal ninja. You on the other hand, are not up for bargaining."

"Yeah, I figured that."

"Tayuya-san," a genin messenger said, running up with a set of colors, the personal flag of the general that lead the attack. "I found the general, ma'am. He had joined the assault and killed during the charge." Tayuya took the flag, tilting her head at it. It was blue with a silver, twin tail comet on it.

"General Kometto," Fū told her. "His standard now belongs to you."

Nodding, she turned to the genin again. "Take it to my home, place it inside and leave immediately."

"Yes, ma'am." Taking it back, he ran off.

"..." Fū could find nothing more to say or even think about, the shock was too much. There was never a doubt that this battle would be a victory and a whole war plan was made on it. They had lost before it begun, all because of one little Konoha ninja was in the village at the right time.

—oo000oo—

Chaos looked over the camp of prisoners, amazed it had actually worked. Oh, he would never say he doubted, not even to his mama, but he had. Probably the two things that kept him from flying off, leaving them to their fate was Tayuya-precious, and that didn't really count because he could have taken her with him, and the thought that maybe, just maybe, they could do it if they hit them before they could hit back. He enjoyed talking to Fū though, he appreciated her knowledge on being a jinchuuriki and was sure he could get her to teach him to draw out the demon chakra from inside him. If nothing else, he was determine to make sure she didn't suffer for this. Turning to the gates when he heard several calls from there, he saw the Otokage, in full battle armor, face still masked Chaos mused, as he came through with the Sound Five in tow. A chunin knelt before him and motioned him to Chaos. Smirking as the Otokage approached, he bowed, "Greetings, Otokage-sama. I come bearing a gift, your village safe and sound and the prisoners of a battle well fought on both sides."

He looked at the men and women, most recovering from wounds, others helping and comforting the wounded. "...A mistake I will never make again, but merciful kami saw fit to lend us you at out darkest hour."

Chaos bowed his head, "I dare do all that may become a man; Who dares do more is none."

Chaos saw his eyes crinkle at the side, "Macbeth? So you are a man of the arts?"

"No, I'm a boy of television," he said with a laugh.

The Otokage laughed with him. "I thank you, Chaos, you did very well, far more than expected or could be asked."

"Think nothing of it, sir. I was here, it needed done."

He nodded, "...I have heard a rumor, Chaos, one I hesitated in telling you. Now, I know for certain. There is an island somewhere in the north sea. This island is one of Orochimaru's. When I find out where exactly it is, I will tell you."

"Thank you for that, Otokage-sama."

"You're welcome, now go home, I'm sure your mother is worried sick."

"I'm sure she is too. Have a good one."

Chaos turned to leave. "Oh, that girl you were reported talking to, anything special about her?"

He hesitated. "A friend, one I met long ago. I would appreciate it if no harm came to her, sir."

"Oh course." When Chaos spread his wings and flew away, he said, "Hmm. Is that what Tayuya meant when she said she was special? Better keep her well and whole anyway, the time to tempt Chaos is soon. Wouldn't do to have those he care for dead." He then lifted up the one gun that Chaos failed to retrieve as well as some ammunition for it. He looked at them and smiled.

—oo000oo—

"Ow. Ow. Ow. Mama, I had too, Tayuya-precious was there and they're an ally. Ow."

Anko figured he had enough and stopped bopping him on the head. "You could have been killed! You weren't even supposed to stay there that long! Just long enough for dinner and be back by noon the latest! Do you have any idea how much I worried!?"

"I'm sorry, mama. I didn't mean to..."

"But you did," she shouted, some tears escaping. "Every time I don't know what happened to you, where you are, I fear Orochimaru got his slimy hands on you again. Every time! Don't do this to me anymore, Chaos, please."

Down right ashamed for making her worry, he said, "Yes mama. I won't anymore."

"Now, as for going into battle," she growled. Chaos closed his eyes, waiting for it. Instead of pain, he felt her wrap her arms around him. "My baby boy, a hero," she said, truly proud. "You did Konoha proud."

He looked at her and smiled after a moment. "Forget Konoha, did I make you proud, mama?"

"Of course! What mother wouldn't be?"

He hugged her tightly, "Thank you, mama."

"Change over, I want to see your beautiful face and celebrate."

Smiling, he did and went and got a jug of habu saki. He heard someone knocking on the front door and Isaribi answer it. Humming to himself, he missed the name of who it was as he placed the jug on the table. "Excuse me, I was told Chaos-kun is in here," he heard behind him, from a voice that made him freeze.

"Uh...yeah, I just saw him," he said, his back still turned. "What do you need him for, Komachi-san?"

"To apologize."

"Apologize? For what?"

"For being a stubborn ass, for hurting him, for hurting those he cares for." Chaos turned around to make sure he heard her right. "Ch-Chaos!?" Komachi looked him up and down, "How...when...no, no matter. You look...great. I guess I owe you some explanations."

"Some," Chaos agreed.

She looked away for a moment. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said and did what I did, breaking up with you the most. I...felt guilty about dating someone so much younger than me, plus I turned eighteen so it was...frowned upon to continue, especially in ANBU. My commander strongly suggested that I break up with you."

"Meaning 'break up with me or there will be consequences," Chaos finished. They really couldn't order them not to, it was against the laws set by the Second. That no one of above rank use that rank for punishment for non-military matters. But he could have ruined her career anyway. Being dismissed from ANBU with a bad conduct discharge was a quick way to ruin your life. "So guilt and threat, that explains the breaking up, and...I don't blame you for it anymore. But why did you do that to Tayuya-precious?"

"...I don't trust her, Chaos, I don't know why but I feel that she got close to you to hurt you in some way. At least, I thought that at first. I realize now that I was jealous that she had what I needed back. I didn't want you to hate me like you did and it hurt to see you kissing her even when she hit you. I know it was all play but..." She dropped her head, tears slipping free. "Please Chaos, don't hate me. I'm not asking you to break up with her but please don't."

She was shocked when he hugged her, "Komachi-chan, I just wanted a truthful answer. Both times, I saw you lie and it hurt. If you had just told me, I would have understood and waited until you got out. No yelling, no anger, and by then I would've been eighteen as well."

She gave a strained laugh laced with tears as she said, "Hind sight is twenty twenty, huh?"

"Yeah, it is...Komachi-chan, there isn't going to be anything there anymore."

"I know."

"...Thank you, but I still want to be your friend. I miss getting together with you and the others. Keggers with Goto and the guys, barbeques with you and your family. I want it back to normal too."

She wiped away her tears. "Alright, thank you." She leaned down and kissed him on the forehead. "Thank you for being a great friend. I better go now."

"No, we're about to have a party. I told the Old Man, now you, I just saved Otogakure. Mama said this deserves a party."

She smiled, "I'd be glad to."

"Grab the cups and plates then, I'll start getting the food." As Komachi did, Chaos smiled, "This is great! The only way things could get better is if I had Orochimaru's head mounted on my wall."

"In time, Chaos-kun," Komachi told him. "All things in good time."

—oo000oo—

Chaos lifted his head to find he was on the floor in his boxers. "Huh? What is this, a rerun from chapter two?" Around him, there were several naked women, him mother, Komachi-chan...he had to do a double take on that one, Tsume, her daughter, all those that were there before. All except the stripper. "That's not right...oh yeah, I was the stripper." He looked to the table and saw four empty saki gallon jugs. That'll do it alright.

The door opened and he heard, "You know Tayuya is going to tan your hide," Isaribi said before taking a picture.

He looked horrified, "Isa-chan, please don't, nothing happened."

"Nothing happened," she asked. "So this is what it looks like when 'nothing happened'. On the plus side, Chaos-baka..." She looked him up and down before smiling at him. "You do look great for a fourteen year old. No wonder mom had you do it." She began walking away.

"Sis, wait!" He ran after, "I'm beggin ya, don't show her that picture!"

Inside the room, Ayame lifted head from Komachi's chest. "Huh? Why so loud..." Her head fell back and she was asleep again.

—oo000oo—

"Oh, that's going right in the scrapbook," Anko said after lunch and she got a good look at it. She took it and placed it right next to the one Chaos took. That incredulous look on her face from the first and Chaos' from the second was exactly alike. "One of Isaribi-angel and it'll be a complete set," she said with a laugh.

Isaribi shook her head. "Have you two no shame?"

"Nope," Anko said before turning to Chaos as he cleaned out the Cerberus.

'Do I still think in italic?' "I know I don't, and don't take my word for it, asked Precious." 'Ooh, I missed you, little italicized letters. What fun we shall have.' He snapped the barrel closed after running a cloth through all three and it came out clean. "So, mama, how are we going to get Isa-chan for the next one?"

"Pervert!" She hit him upside the head with a frying pan, knocking him out.

—oo000oo—

"This isn't right," one of the Oto chunin said to his partner. "He saved our lives and..."

"I know," he replied. "...It isn't but if things go right, then we won't be betraying him. He will work with us."

"...I still feel like shit for this," he said, even as he loaded the last of the ammunition into a crate to send to the island. In another crate were several of the weapons that fired them. Lord Orochimaru had worked tirelessly to reproduce them and in various forms. This set in particular could fire continuously while holding down the trigger. He was getting ready to rule the world it seemed like. Both chunin, ones saved by Chaos, felt like they were stabbing him in the back.

—oo000oo—

It had been over a month since Chaos had gone to Otogakure and saved the day. He was currently walking through the gates again, wishing to say hello to Tayuya and Fū. What he found was signs of a raid. "What's going on here!?"

"Chaos-sama," a genin said, running up to her. "They, they came before sunrise."

"Who? Who came before sunrise?"

"I don't know, they just grabbed supplies, shot a few people, and grabbed others."

"Wait, they shot people?"

"Yes...they had guns like yours."

Chaos took a deep breath, "Where's Tayuya?" The genin looked away. "WHERE!?"

"She was taken." She took a step back, afraid.

"By who," he growled.

"...Oro...Orochimaru." She took another step back, completely afraid of him now. "Don't kill me! A prisoner, we have a prisoner!" She stumbled back and Chaos took a really deep breath to calm her down.

"I won't kill you. Where is the prisoner?" She pointed to a building and Chaos walked to it. There, he was stopped by Jiroubou.

"Chaos, I..."

"Get out of my way!" Chaos tossed him aside and went to a guarded door. Kimimaro and Sakon were standing to the side of the door. "Let me at him," he growled.

"Chaos, I understand," Sakon said to him. Chaos grabbed him by the collar and tossed him through the window.

"You don't want any of this, Kimimaro, get out of the way."

"...The Otokage already has a man working him over."

"I will get it faster," he growled, pointing the Cerberus at his head. "You have until I reach five. One, two, three." Chaos pulled back the hammers. "Four."

Kimimaro didn't doubt he would kill him so he nodded while hitting a fist to the door. Inside, the man that was adding the final punches to make make the prisoner look roughed up looked to the door. He wasn't looking for answers, the man was just a bandit hired from the road, he wasn't one of them, wasn't an Oto. "What the hell?" He went to the door, only for it to be thrown open, tossing him back. Chaos grabbed him, threw him outside, and slammed the door shut. Slowly, he walked around the room, trying to cool off a little. Didn't work.

"What do you..." Chaos punched him so hard he almost tore his face off, must less rendering him unconscious.

—oo000oo—

"Wake up. Wake up," Chaos shouted, hitting upside the head. "I need you wide awake for this." The man groggily opened his eyes to see Chaos tapping two steel nails together before slamming them down into his restrained legs.

"AAGH!"

"Stop screaming and tell me where this girl is," Chaos said, holding up a picture of Tayuya. He looked from it before spitting in his face. Chaos wiped it off before taking two wires and wrapping them around the nails. "Talk now or later, I will get her back," he said before shoving a cloth in his mouth so he didn't bite his own tongue off. Then he went to the light switch, glared at the man, before turning on the overhead light. The man screamed in pain all through it until Chaos turned them off. "You know, my mother prefers the messy kind of torture. Nail pulling, acid dripping on flesh, flaying the man. Me, I find it counter productive.. She enjoys it, thats why she does it, and people know that. Which is why most crack within five days with her, because she doesn't care if you give the answer or not. Me, I want results, and I want them fast." He turned it back on, and left it that way for five minutes. "Now you tell me what I want to know or I will leave it on until the power is shut off for lack of paying the bill." He tore the cloth out of his mouth.

"Agh, ah..." Chaos was about to shove it back in. "No! No! Minos, the island is Minos! She's on the island of Minos!" Chaos looked at him a moment before grabbing a map of the elemental continent and putting a pen in his hand.

"Where?"

"Here, it's here." He circled an island there and dropped the pen. "Please, don't do it again." Chaos looked at him with utter contempt a moment longer before going to the light switch again. "No! Please, don't! I told you, I told you!"

"And I believe you, but you took someone precious to me. Oto shinobi will come and get you, eventually." Chaos threw down the switch and left, hearing the screams. Outside, he grabbed a wondering guard. "The prisoner is down there, you can't miss him. Follow the screams." Chaos spread his wings, and flew off.

—oo000oo—

Chaos reached the island and hovered a moment before dropping down, smashing through the roof. He looked up and saw no one around. He began looking for someone and was in luck, he found two. He raised the Cerberus and pointed at the back of one of their heads. Let's take this moment to see the chain of thoughts going through Chaos right now. 'Hmm. Normally, here the hero would tap them on the shoulder, giving them the chance to fight back. Let's see what my little Chaos Angel and Chaos Devil have to say.' He looked to his right shoulder and saw it enpty. On his left shoulder, he saw his angel and devil. 'Fuck that,' the angel shouted. 'What he said,' the devil agreed. Chaos arched an eyebrow. 'Two out of two little voices in the head can't be wrong.' We now return to our regularly scheduled ass whooping. Chaos shot one in the head and pressed the Cerberus against the head of the other. "Where's Tayuya!?

—oo000oo—

Orochimaru smirked as he watch Chaos come, cutting a bloody path through the men with guns. Right now, he was about to burst through a door into a hall with over a dozen armed men. "So, what are you going to do?" Chaos stopped at the doors, turned his head a little, he could hear them on the other side. He holstered the Cerberus and drew the Death Penalty before shifting it in two. "Huh?"

"You all should know, you're about to die!" He kicked the doors open and walked in, swords spinning around him. The sight was one to make Orochimaru drop his jaw. They were firing on him and Chaos was knocking them aside, ricochetting them into killing people around him. He even used the reflection on the blades to see a man behind him about to shoot him in the back. He turned around, cut the bullet in half, making the pieces go to the side, killing two others, and he stood there and smirked. The man looked around and saw that everyone elsewas dead. Chaos walked over to him as he scrambled back. "Said you all would die." A swipe with the first sword and the gun was cut in half. The second one and his head fell to the floor.

Orochimaru couldn't help but smile. "Chaos, you are perfect."

—oo000oo—

Chaos ran through the lab base, going to the room they told him. Opening the door to a dark room, he looked around. "Tayuya? Tayuya?" The lights turned on to reveal a clapping man with pale skin, long black hair, and yellow serpent eyes. Chaos looked at him, eyes wide. "Orochimaru...I didn't...I didn't sense you."

"Of course not, Chaos-kun. I changed my body long ago, more than long enough to help you forget the feel of my aura," he said with a smirk. "I must say, you have done extremely well with what I've given you."

"What you've given me!?"

"Did you think all this happened for good luck? No, my boy, it didn't." He tossed a file of Chaos along with a picture of him giving it to Amachi. "I gave you back your name, I gave you back your past." He tossed the formula for the chemical Chaos used to look normal again. "I gave you back your looks." He held up a recorder and pressed play. "Don't kill her, Amachi, I want her alive. I have use for her." He tossed that to him as well. "I gave you your sister." He looked to the side, "And I gave you what you wanted most of all. Come."

Chaos looked to where he looked and his mouth fell open. "No..."

"Yes, I gave you acceptance and love." Tayuya walked out in front of him to Orochimaru's side.

"No...you... It was all an act?"

"No, Chaos, I swear," Tayuya said to him. "How I feel, what I said, it was all true."

"...How...How could you even look at yourself? I never lied to you. I saved Oto for you!"

"Chaos, please, I...I didn't want to, not at first, but I do love you, Chaos. I told you the truth." Chaos looked at her, hurt, before taking a step back. "Chaos, don't..."

"You need only do one thing, Chaos, and that will be all, it will all be your's for good," Orochimaru stated. "Hell, not only will I apologize, I will remove the curse seal from your mother and try to make peace with her. You need only swear yourself to me. I ask not for a slave, not for a boot licker, for an equal, for my eventual successor." Chaos never took his eyes off Tayuya, barely even hearing him. He took another step back before turning around and running away. "He will come back, Tayuya," Orochimaru said. "It's in his blood not to leave those that are precious to him."

—oo000oo—

"Stupid, stupid, stupid! Of course it was all an act! Who could ever love a monster like me!?" Taking a deep, calming breath, he began to change. He was too noticeable as he was. "I have to get out, have to warn the Hokage." He began to make his way through the lab to the exit he made, he couldn't stop thinking about her. He froze when he heard someone coming up behind him. Getting behind a corner, he waited. From the smell, it was a woman, one that wasn't Tayuya. She came around and he kicked her in the stomach, knocking her back a moment.

"What the hell!?"

"Yes, that is a gun in my pants," Chaos said, trying to act normal as he held out his sword, the tip under her chin. "But that doesn't mean I'm not happy to see you." She was pretty, at least Orochimaru had good taste. She wore glasses and had fiery red hair that was smooth on one side and a mess on the other.

She looked at him and snorted before straightening her face. "Shut up," she ordered.

"Why, afraid I'll make you laugh again?"

"Yes. And the answer is no."

"Huh, wait what?"

"No, I don't have a boyfriend."

Chaos widened his eyes and smirked. 'SCORE!' "Well, now that that is settled, mind telling me what you're doing here?"

"Yeah, sure. I'm trying to find the boyfriend of my friend, Tayuya."

"...You're looking for me. Why, hasn't she done enough to hurt me?"

"You're Chaos?" She looked him up and down. "Not what I thought you would look like. Chaos, she didn't mean it. She got the order after you started hanging out."

"How do you know!? What if you're all part of this fucked up plan!?"

"Because of this!" She held out a locket. Chaos slowly picked it up and opened it. Seeing a picture of him and her on one side, on the other, was several small seals. He pressed the first.

"Ugh, can't believe I'm actually doing this," it said in Tayuya's voice. "So, this fucker named Chaos met me today. He thinks he's all that and a bag of chips. I'm so going to put him down several pegs."

He tapped the second, "Orochimaru-sama want's me to get close to him. I so hate that bastard, why do I have to!? Jiroubou is gay, make him!"

Chaos smirked and tapped the third. "I saw Chaos spar with his sensei. It was...kinda cool of the fucker. But when he played, with the moon shining from his chest...that was cool."

The fourth. "Chaos just took me on a date...it was okay...Alright, fine, it was great. I don't think this will be a bad mission anymore. He is a good guy, something I won't hold against him."

The fifth. "...This marks the longest I've been without seeing him and, kami help me, I miss him. Heh, I hate admitting it, he's right. He does excite me and I already miss the bastard."

Chaos pressed the sixth and final one. "...Chaos told me he loved me a few nights ago. We made love through the night, and just held each other afterwards. I love him too. Chaos, if you're listening to this, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. I know that by now, it's probably time to choose. Chaos...I gave this to Karen to ask her to help, to let you know it wasn't all about the mission. If you can forgive me, then I know what my choice is."

Chaos looked at the picture of them, he had it taken during their first date. He had somehow gotten her to smile for it and to let him hold her. "...You're her friend?"

"As close as any before you."

"...Do you know what happen to her father?"

"No, no one does. Orochimaru just found her one day."

Chaos swallowed, it could very well be a lie but what if it wasn't? He wanted to believe this, he did. Closing his eyes and holding it close, he said, "Don't let me be wrong." He slipped it on before changing back. Licking his lips, he said, "Sorry, Karen-chan, I'm taken and I don't plan on letting her go."

"Good," she said, smiling, "cause if you did, I'd have to kill you. Go back there and get her!"

Chaos nodded, turned around, and headed back. At the door, he kicked it open. "Hmm, four minutes, thirty two seconds. Just a tad bit longer than I thought," Orochimaru said to him.

"Where's Tayuya?"

"Like I also expected, she is right there." He motioned to a side room and Chaos headed into it.

"Precious," he said, entering.

"Chaos," she said, startled that he came back. "I thought you hated me."

"Nah, think of me like that lost puppy that just follows you around. I can't leave you. I love you."

"Thank you," Tayuya said, as she hugged him. "...Don't think I'm going to be this weak again."

"Of course not, precious," he said, kissing her. "I got your message. Karen is a good friend."

"She is," Tayuya said, leaning against him. "So, I made my choice, what's your's?"

"Lord knows I should take you and walk away," Chaos told her. "So, I think that's a good idea." He picked her up and carried her out.

"So, Chaos-kun, what's your choice, as if I don't know."

"...Well, Orochi-kun, I decided to take your offer..." Orochimaru smirked. "And tell you to shove it up your ass. I'm taking Tayuya and going. And I am never stepping foot back in Otogakure again."

Orochimaru watched him go a moment, "No."

"What?"

"You think this is a game? That you can just take and that's it," he growled. "No, never forget something, I own not only her, I own your mother. Your sister. Allow me to demonstrate." He made a handsign and and Tayuya started screaming in pain. "Let's not forget that you also have that friend in Oto now. I own you."

Chaos took a deep breath before setting her on the ground. "Precious, I'll be right back." He gave her a kiss on the forehead.

"Don't," she tried to say. "Don't, you lost before, he's stronger now."

"So am I." He stood up and turned back to Orochimaru. "What do you want, monster?"

"You," Orochimaru told him. "Her, Amachi, Anko, they mean nothing in the end. You are the ultimate life-form. You mean more than all of them, a hundred of them."

Chaos closed his eyes. "So, you just want your experiment."

"I told you what I want, and what I gave and will give to get it. And now, you know what I will take."

Chaos looked from him to Tayuya. "...Last time we fought, I took your spine, you took my Proto-gem and nearly made me kill someone very important to me. Not this time. I finally figured out why this does that? This," Chaos said, tossing his shirt and cloak to the side, revealing his gem, "is crystallized pure nature chakra, my balance, the one thing to keep me, and all other corrupt chakra under control. And I won't let you toss it aside this time." He knelt by Tayuya and said, "Keep this safe."

"Chaos, what are you doing?" He grabbed the proto-gem, ripped it out, and placed it in her hand. She could see his eyes growing wilder by the moment. He gave her another kiss before turning back to Orochimaru.

"What now, no boy to throw around, just the demon you created." Chaos ran at him, slashing at him with his claws.

"It takes more than an animal to beat me!"

"You're right," Chaos growled. He drew the Death Penalty and flipped the second blade down. He ran at him again, spinning the double bladed sword several times. Orochimaru could barely cough out the Kusanagi in time to block him. Chaos attacked rapidly, from one angle then another from the other side, fast and dangerous. It was all Orochimaru could do to stay with him and Chaos was pushing more he forced them away from Tayuya. The animal was taking over, and this time, there was a very clear target. Chaos flipped the Death Penalty to the side a few times before going for an upward slash. Orochimaru blocked it and Chaos immediately flipped to the other side of the weapon, bringing that blade in across his chest. When he blocked that strike as well, Chaos gave him a kick, pushing him back into a wall. Breaking the Death Penalty apart, Chaos tried to stab them into his shoulders and wall. Only for Orochimaru to catch his hands with the swords inches away.

"I win."

"Wrong," the animal growled. Chaos' wings came from the side and stabbed the bladed tips into him. He then pulled the swords back and then pushed them into his shoulders, pinning him there.

"I'll kill her," Orochimaru told him. "You hear me in there!? I'll kill her! One handsigh and AGH!"

Chaos growled before catching his hands in his claw and crusifying him to the wall. With a roar, he drew two more daggers and was about to drive them into his brain and heart. He hit but not before something long and white came from his mouth. Chaos spun around to see a giant snake. With a snarl, he pulled his weapons from the husk behind him. As he ran at him, the husk came to life and wrapped around him legs. Chaos roared in anger and forced his legs free. Looking back up, he didn't see the snake. "Yesss, exactly what I expect from my perfect life-form. But why should I let its power fall to you, Naruto?" Chaos growled, looking around for him. "Can't find me? Kukukuku! Don't worry, because even with you, your blind spot is..." Chaos turned around and saw it lunging at him, "RIGHT BEHIND YOU!" It began forcing its way inside Chaos, though he was fighting it. "Surrender to me!"

Chaos growled at it and forced it out, "FUCK YOU!" The snake thrashed around a little, completely disoriented after being so close to claiming him as a host. Chaos growled as he stood back up before charging him and tackling him. Stabbing his wings in its body, he wrapped his claws around his throat and began to choke it to death. Though the smaller snakes tried to bite him, he ignored it before stabbing a claw into its back and grabbing his spine once again. He pulled and it turned out to only be a rib bone, one that came to a very sharp point. A final roar and that bone was stabbed right into Orochimaru's head before being broken off and the rest of the bone being driven through the eye. It bucked a few more moments before falling still. Chaos stood from it and began to walk back, stumbling as he did. It had gotten him good against walls and other such things as well as a few bites getting through. He fell next to Tayuya and rested against her and the Proto-gem. As his eyes began to return to normal, he pulled her close. "...Next time, if there is a next time, don't let me do something that dumb again," he said to her when he returned to normal.

"You idiot," she said to him, pressing the gem back in place. "You're my idiot, but still an idiot." She kissed him and helped him up. "Lets go home, you're tired, and I hurt."

"Alright precious, if you insist." Chaos forced himself to stand, picking her up as he did. 'You know, we could probably make it back in time for the finals of the Chunin Exam,' he realized. "...Oh I love to go swimmin' with bow legged women and swim between their legs, swim between their legs."

"Chaos, what are you singing?"

"What, it keeps me focused."

Tayuya looked him in the eyes and said, "I call bull shit."

—oo000oo—

Chaos landed outside Tayuya's home, "So, what happens to Oto now?"

"A new Otokage is elected by popular vote of the jonin, just like any other village." She started grabbing her things. "I just need to do something first, then we can go."

"Take your time, precious."

"Thanks for your permission, fucker." She walked by him as he held a hand over his heart. "I will wound you if you don't stop." She walked by and jumped when he pinched her butt. "That's it!"

Chaos saw her fist coming and he smirked at having the fiery Tayuya back. He caught her fist and kissed it. "I love you too, precious."

She glared at him a moment before turning away. "You," she said to a jonin, "gather all the Sound Five and jonins."

"Yes ma'am," he said before running off. Later, inside the meeting chambers, she dropped the bomb. "Lord Orochimaru has been killed, he went against someone he couldn't turn nor could he defeat."

"Who," one demanded.

"...Mitarashi Chaos," she told them. "So that's it, his dream is over and we are leaderless."

Kimimaro looked shocked, "Wait, Chaos killed him? How?"

"He forced him to flee his body and when Orochimaru tried to take control of his body, he couldn't."

One of the silent jonin spoke up. "...I vote that Mitarashi Chaos be made Otokage." Shouts and demands were met by this. "Need I remind you that it is the strongest of the village that becomes the Kage? Not only did he defeat the former Otokage, he saved our village, our families. This man is it."

Sakon and Ukon looked at each other, in sepparate bodies. "We second that vote."

"Fine then, all those that support Chaos becomes the Otokage, raise their hands." Many of them did, having agreed with the argument. "All oppose?" Half those that remained were left undecided. "The motion is passed," Kimimaro stated. "We will approach him with this and see what he says. Tayuya, if you would please."

"...Yeah." She walked out, taking the hate with her.

"Hey, precious, things go well?"

"Very," she replied before dropping the hat on his head. "It suits you."

"Sorry, but I'm not particularly dreaming about being Hokage," he said, taking it off.

"And I'm not particularly asking your opinion, Otokage."

"Oh, so you can decide...huh?"

"I said Otokage. The jonins decided that the next one should be you if you will take it."

"Me?"

"Yes. You saved the village, you defeated Orochimaru. Say yes and its your's."

He looked from her to the hat in his claws. "You're serious. You want me the Otokage."

"You care for this village more than Orochimaru did. You're friends with the ninja here, he saw us a means to an end. Say yes."

"...And if I say no?" Whack. She bopped him upside the head.

"I didn't tell you to say no, did I?"

"No ma'am."

She took the hat back and put it on his head. "I will fucking hurt you if you say no."

"I love you too, precious." Whack! "What was that one for!?"

"To keep you from getting a big head, dumb ass!"

"Wait, you're giving me the hat and you don't want me to get a big head!? Make up your mind, woman!" WHACK! "I mean I would never."

"No say yes, you bastard, or I swear you will sleep in the den for the rest of your life."

"Oh, we're living and sleeping together now?"

—oo000oo—

"AAAAGGGGHHHH!" Jonins that were outside waiting for an answer saw Chaos fly through the door and land roughing, rolling backwards. Looking up into the face of the one above him, he said, "Are all women this violent in getting you to do something?"

"Get over here!" A kunai and chain shot through the open doorway, wrapped around one of his legs, and began dragging him in.

"AGH! Save me!" He dug his fingers into the ground and left claw marks as he was dragged back in. The jonin looked at each other and winced when they heard a giant WWWHHHAAACCCKKK!

"I don't want to know," one of them said.The building nearly shook as something was slammed into the wall.

—oo000oo—

Chaos shook off the dizzy spell after Tayuya slammed him into a wall. "Pre-mph!" Tayuya had kissed him suddenly. When they parted, he was slow to say anything. "And that was for?"

"That was you agreeing."

"Like I would ever turn you down," he replied, cupping her cheek. "But did you need to go that far?"

"Well, if you had just shut up for a moment. Honestly, are you ever quiet?"

"Not while I'm awake, no." She sighed but laid her head on his chest. "So, are you the tender girlfriend that loves to be held and to hold me back or the abusive, mean one that I can't get enough of?"

"How about the girlfriend that love to be held by you but more than willing to put you in your place?"

"Works with me." He kissed her and smirked, "It's because of my irresistible charm, isn't it?"

"I told you once, you're not as charming as you think."

"Yes I am." He slipped on the Otokage hat. "So, now that I'm Otokage, I'm going to have to do something about me being a Konoha special genin."

"Resign," Tayuya told him.

"...Works with me."

—oo000oo—

"Hey, Old Man," Chaos said when he saw him the next day.

"Ah, Chaos, how are things in Oto?"

"Good. Actually, no, they're not. Orochimaru attacked while I was there, the Otokage is dead. On the plus side, so is Orochimaru." He gave him the scroll with the snakes head.

Hiruzen dropped his jaw as he hear that and unsealed it. "He's dead..."

"Killed him myself. Can you believe the fool let me get so close to hurting him? He let all those things out to draw me to him." He shrugged, "Ce la ve."

"...Amazing, Chaos! You have done what no one else in the Elemental Continent could! I will see to it you get promoted to Special Chunin right away."

"Yeah, about that, there's more news."

"What else," he asked, excited.

"I'm resigning and moving to Oto. I'm marrying Tayuya and we going to have lots of little rug rats running around in a few short years. And we are going to look to Konoha and act all snobbish with you because we have guns and you don't." Chaos finished it by pulling down his eyelid and sticking his tongue out at him.

The Hokage looked at him and chuckled, then he began to laugh. "Really now, what is it?"

"Are you calling my bluff!?"

"Yes, I am."

"...Okay. The truth is, Old man, they want me to be Otokage, as I defeated the snake and saved them. And I can only do that..." He trailed off.

"By resigning your status as a Konoha ninja or with my permission."

"Bingo."

"...Well, no need to go that far, I think." He grabbed a form from his desk and began to sign it. "I hereby transfer the ninjas Mitarashi Anko and Mitarashi Chaos to Otogakure." He gave it to him. "Nothing like even stronger bonds with a village."

Chaos looked from him to the note. "You manipulating bastard! You're doing this just to put Oto in Konoha control!?"

He shrugged, "Chaos, I was known as the Professor for a reason. More over, I have the village to look out for."

"...And now, I have my own, Old Man. And I won't let it be Konoha's tool."

"Good, I would expect no less from someone I taught. Do what is right for Oto, Chaos, for the village and her people."

Chaos smiled, finally getting the Old Man. "Yeah, sure."

"Well, Otokage-dono, will you be attending the Chunin Exams? Two of your genin, Kinuta Dozu and Tsuki Kin are in it."

"And the third?"

"He lost his match to Sai."

"Too bad. Well, who are the matches?"

"First match is Hyuuga Hinata against Sabaku no Kankuro. Second match, Sai against Inuzuka Kiba. Third match Tsuki Kin against Uchiha Sasuke. Fourth Match, Sabaku no Temari against Kinuta Dosu. Fifth Match, Hyuuga Neji against Sabaku no Gaara."

"The Sabaku genin...ooh, that isn't good. I better have a chat with Hinata-chan."

"Huh, what about your genin?"

"I remember them from the exams. Their good, professionals, but Hinata is my friend. Can't let my last act as a Konoha ninja be to leave her to the wolves." He stood up and stepped to the window. "See ya later, Old Man." He jumped out and flew to the Hyuuga estate. Spotting Hinata practicing against a practice dummy, he dropped down and grabbed her. "You're coming with me, Hinata-chan."

"ANO!?" Chaos carried her off, planning to run her into the ground.

—oo000oo—

"Lord Hokage," Sabaku said as he walked into the Kage Box, seeing the old man sitting in the center of three chairs. "Everything going well?"

"As can be expected. Please, sit," he motioned to the chair on the right.

"Is another coming?"

"Yes, the Otokage."

"Of course, two of his genin are in the exams, are they not?"

"They are. Talented bunch this time around. I look forward to the matches.

"Am I late, Old Man,"Chaos said as he walked into the box with the Sound Five.

Sabaku turned around and stared at the boy. As did Sarutobi for that matter. Chaos had changed into his human form and was wearing robes and the hat of a Kage. "He's a boy," Sabaku said in disbelief.

"Maybe," Chaos said taking the empty seat, "but I defeated Orochimaru for the title."

"Orochimaru of the Sannin," he asked in disbelief.

"He did," Tayuya said, stand behind Chaos on the left. "A pleasure to see you again, Hokage-sama."

"And you, Tayuya-chan. Everyone recovering in Oto?"

"Yes, things are fine now. We even have a new member of the Sound Five. Sadly, Kimimaro has gotten sick but we are already looking for a surgeon skilled enough to give him an organ transplant. Until then, Fū here has taken his place."

She bowed to him, "An honor to meet a living legend like yourself sir."

"An honor to meet you. Shall we begin?"

"Yes, I can't wait to see my genin wipe the floor with your's," Chaos said to them.

Sarutobi smirked and stood up, "Ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for coming to the Exams this year. Please, let us put our hands together for those that will fight here today." As people cheered, Sarutobi got a good look at Hinata, she looked...bigger. "Before you now stands the best of the best. From all the villages, these ten have fought the most to present their skills to you. They will battle in an elimination tournament until one stands before you at the end of the day. Just one. Let the chunin exam begin!"

—oo000oo—
