They had managed to fell but a few of an ever growing horde of these demonic men. How there could be so many hiding around here without anyone finding out was a mystery to Minato. But something was definitely wrong with these creatures.
“well… We’ve had worse odds in the past.” Minato mumbled as the demonic men formed a circle around the pair. They stood back to back, demonic laughter filling the area, as their enemy surrounded them like a pack of hungry wolves.
‘I don’t think that having worse odds in the past is going to help us.’ his silver haired friend mumbled, almost irritatedly, as the death circle that surrounded them seemed to shrink. Their situation was getting worse and worse, and all they were doing was throwing around some casual banter. It wasn’t the best choice in a situation like this, but Minato just needed time to think.
‘Kakashi, I have an Idea. But I need you to get some explosive kunai ready.’ The yellow haired shinobi muttered under his voice as he lifted two of his own kunai from the pouch on his backside. It wasn’t an escape, but they had to do something about the horde of death that surrounded them.
Minato tossed his kunai towards opposite ends of the ring, it didn’t matter whether they hit something or not, just that he got the timing right. He watched as his weapons darted towards their enemies, almost in slow motion as two, rather large, balls of spiralling chakra formed in his hands. He didn’t have much time, but he was the fastest Shinobi in the world.
Before they knew it, Minato had disappeared, a bright flash of yellow replacing him as Kakashi tossed his explosive Kunai. He’d caught on pretty quick. The explosions would disorient them long enough for his sensei’s rasengan to land. The plan, unfortunately, was only making the best of a bad situation, and it didn’t guarantee anything.
Kakashi dropped to the ground, covering his face as Minato reappeared only mere moments after the explosions echoed throughout the area.
‘Rasengan!’ The yellow flash exclaimed as he thrust his attack into the chest-plate of one of the demonic beings, retrieving his Kunai and then proceeding to repeat the process with the second Kunai, before returning to Kakashi.
As Kakashi rose from the ground, the duo shinobi noticed that their efforts had only managed to, momentarily, disrupt their enemies. They’d only managed to maim another four of their dozens of attackers.
‘Well, four is better than none.’ the former kage joked, his protege groaning as the onslaught of enemies began to charge them. There was no time, the golden haired shinobi just found himself reacting and, before he knew it, he had told Kakashi to jump in the air as he transitioned into a crouching handstand. He placed his feet against his companion’s and kicked upwards, throwing him up into the air.
Minato, Kunai in hand, then teleported to Kakashi – who was now roughly 15 feet in the air – and tossed his kunai at the roof of a building before throwing his companion, again, towards the same building. He then spun in mid air, facing the ground as the last of his upward momentum exhausted itself.
‘Big Ball Rasengan!’ The former Kage exclaimed as the large rasengan, roughly the size of a beach ball, that formed in the palm of his right hand connected with the ground. It took a moment, everything had slowed down for him due to the adrenaline in his body, but the impact had caused the ground to crack and break apart. The horde of enemies that the airborne shinobi had descended upon, had now been blown backwards into the surrounding structures by the shock-wave that had been caused by the man’s attack. Unfortunately the former Kage hadn’t had many options, and this manoeuvre had taken out a few of the surrounding houses.
The man stood at the centre of the newly formed crater, his enemies dispersed throughout the area. As his enemies stood, disoriented and bruised, he disappeared, a bright flash of yellow light replacing him as the demonic attackers began a search for the duo. They were a couple rows of buildings back, laying flat against the roof. It wouldn’t take their foe’s long to find them, but they needed what little time they had to formulate a plan.
‘I think I used a little too much chakra with that one.’ Minato laughed, quietly, over his heavy breathing.
‘Yeah.’ Kakashi nodded as the wheels and cogs in his brain turned, he was trying to formulate a plan. If they left, the small army of armoured men would definitely take to destroying the buildings. At the moment, the hunt for the shinobi duo was all that was stopping the village’s imminent destruction. At least until Tsunade could regroup all of her troops. On the other hand, Minato was running out of chakra and, if he was being honest, he hadn’t been conserving his own chakra that well either.
‘What do we do, Minato-sensei?’ Kakashi spoke, almost as if he still had something to learn from his former master. Minato took a moment to think, the situation was definitely dire. He reached out, pulling his kunai from the wooden roof, and then sat up.
‘Sage mode.’ He spoke as he looked out towards the battlefield. ‘Sage mode should give me a large enough boost to hold them off.’ He spoke as he stood up and moved to the edge of the building.
‘Sensei-’ Kakashi spoke, Minato cut him off. He already knew what he was going to say.
‘Kakashi, I’ can give you enough time to return to Tsunade. You can regroup with her forces and then take these ass-holes out.’ His words cut through the air, both inspiring and saddening Kakashi. He was going to sacrifice himself, again, for the village. For another village.
‘There’s no need for that.’ A rather feminine voice spoke, causing both Minato’s and Kakashi’s heads to turn towards the source of the voice. A woman, clad in some kind of strange armour made of leather and some kind of animal bone. The hood and mask obscured her face, and she carried a bow and two small daggers. Minato stared at her, a look of confusion in his eyes as she gracefully stepped towards the duo.
‘We can handle it from here.’ She spoke as she leapt from the roof of the building they were on to a building closer to the battle area. The sounds of steel against steel suddenly filled the area, as the demonic war-cries that once filled the air, began to drop off. The mystery lady was right, they could handle it.
“I think it’s time to head back to Tsunade.’ Minato spoke as he returned to his sitting position next to his scarecrow-like companion.
“well… We’ve had worse odds in the past.” Minato mumbled as the demonic men formed a circle around the pair. They stood back to back, demonic laughter filling the area, as their enemy surrounded them like a pack of hungry wolves.
