A dark shadow loomed over the village, dark omens of shattering lightning, and quaking ground seemed to take hold everywhere, tree's leaves falling, and branches breaking apart. A small gray dot on top of the Hokage head statues.
"It is time," The old fox said, a large lotus appearing around him. Each petal was a different color, laying over and over on top of his body, "No one can stop me now..." His voice was loud and booming, echoing through the village as the giant lotus grew and grew, each petal encircling the flower from below, as though it was blooming in reverse.

Emerode appeared from under the mountain, growling as he tried to break the petals, the chakra too strong for his blows to break. "This can't be good!" He shouted, trying again and again to punch and kick at the petals, but to no avail. All of the petals swirled around, and the large flower now glowed as though it was the source of light from the village.

Lunar walked up to Emerode and asked, "do you need help?" she said to him in a worried voice.

"Yeah," He breathed with a nod, "A lot of help.."
Shaking his hands out for a second, he balled them back into fists, and tried to start punching and kicking again, the giant flower visible from everywhere in Konoha, a slight circle of light shining in above it. The chakra from inside was building, and Emerode's punches where stopped in their tracks and bounced back.

ok" she said then her eyes turned black and she turned into her demon (cheetah). she started to run around it over and over again then she attached it, and flew back. 'wow this is really strong I have to find a way to defete it but I'm going to need his help' she thought then she looked at him and said, "hay do you have a demon?" she asked then she tryed to attach it again.

"No, but I have an idea.." Emerode said, holding out his hand, a spiral of his chakra network appearing above it, "Push your chakra in, and I'll put it into an attack that should stop this thing..." He took a breath, and held out his other hand, a black ball appearing in the middle. 'The bijuu eater..' He thought to himself, closing his eyes slowly as the chakra around the bit of the network that was outside of his body seemed to fade away and pull into the growing black sphere in his right hand, his skin slowly growing pale, 'it is the only way..'


Xeku's form was growing at the core of the Lotus, the color of his eyes appearing from inside the petals, the petals growing white, and slowly blooming outward.

she pushed her chakra in and waited to see what will happen.

The black orb in his hand grew, rocks starting to pull into it, his hair moving forward slowly. A spiral of dust appeared pulling into the ball, the petals blooming still, the bloomed pettals pulling toward the abyss in Emerode's hand. "now, while he's distracted, you can attack the other side.." He grumbled, the flower seeming to slow down it's bloom, "Or he'll catch on.."

"got it." she said then she ran behind him quickly and she attacked him.

The petals few away, and spiraled outward, Emerode's hand torn raw, and the chakra that was there dispersed.
In the clearing, a man stood, his hair gray and long down over his face, Torn and tattered cloths covering his body with large gaps on his shoulders and elbows. The cloth seemed to be worn and bleached by the sun, and his eyes remained closed as he pulled his hair back. He knelt down, and grabbed a jagged rock, slicing the hair until it was a short matted mess, rather then a long one. He opened his left eye slightly, a cool blue glowing coming from it as he looked from Emerode, to Lunar. "Well well well, if it isn't Emerode," He chuckled, his voice crackling from disuse before he coughed slightly, "I guess you've tried to find someone to help you. It won't be enough." He held out his left hand, and his chakra began to spin around it as he lifted it up to look. "Not quiet 100%, but it will be enough," Xeku exclaimed, closing his fist and flicking his wrist, a blast of air shooting forward at Emerode.

when she saw what Xeku shot at him she ran over to Emerode wouldn't get hurt and she would protect him, she wouldn't move until she got hit by the air then she thought, 'this shouldn't hurt I meat it's only air.' she thought to herself.

The air kept thundering forward, and Emerode gritted his teeth, and put his hands on Lunar's shoulders, the air passing through them before he took a deep breath. 'The affinity step won't help for long,' he thought to himself.

"Oh, you know the affinity step that well?" Xeku chuckled, spinning his hands around each other, lighting and fire spiraling between them, "But you don't have the ability to use this kind of attack now do you?"

Emerode gulped, and lifted his hands, clenching his fists. "Be careful.." Emerode said, moving beside Lunar and bracing himself. 'I can't keep this up' He thought to himself, trying to build up chakra for the mirage strike, the ground pulsing green chakra up his legs in a flurry around him.

Xeku chuckled as the clones from his first Mirage strike began to appear from behind the two of them, three clones in all. They jumped and spun, wind slashing in all directions as the cackled and spun in the air moving toward the two of them quickly.

she turned into her human form and she teleported behind Xeku and her eyes turned yellow then a thunder storm appered in the sky then a bolt of lightning struck him and then her eyes turned blue and he was splashed by a wave of waterl, then her eyes turned light blue and she blew ice at him to freeze him.

Xeku spun around, fire and thunder causing the wave and lightning to be pushed away, clones appearing and splitting the wave.

Emerode charged forward, rock flailing outward behind him in a trail, his fist pushing beams of rock forward at Xeku. "Mirage strike!" clones appeared in the air, flinging spikes of rock down at the spiral of fire, the rock melting and becoming a dome of stone around Xeku as the clones burst into spikes that drove them selfs inward.

she watched because she was exausted then she turned into her wolf form and waited for an opening.

Emerode breathed heavily, his fists opening up slowly. Then, the sound of glass breaking could be heard, and Xeku's form appeared out of a mass of dust, created in a chimney of broken rock. "That's not quiet enough to take care of me." He chuckled.
