Two Paths (Sequel to Why Me)

1st part of plan revealed

"Yeah that's really going to work," The Shikaku said.

"Try something more effective next time,"

"Be quiet; no one asked you." Mariah thought.

"Well we're inside you so this is our only entertainment."

"Shouldn't you guys be bickering at each other or something?"

"This is more entertaining."

"You guys give me a headache."

"Good; then we're doing our jobs."

"You guys should be nicer to me......I treat you how you want to be treated and I know how to set you free back to where you came from."

They were silent after that.

"Heh, that's what I thought."

I swung my sword again but this time it wrapped around the beast causing it to trip and giving Tadashi an opening to pull out the receiver which he successfully did. (I forget how many are left so I'm just gunna say theres 2)

Two...........Two were left.....this war is almost over once we finish this. All that will be left is 'Madara' and the dead shinobi wondering around. It'll be difficult but as long as we focus and work together we can defeat them. I just need to get to where Kabuto is and stop the Edo Tensei.........Then finally defeat 'Madara'.

(Third person)

Meanwhile in both Heaven and Hell shinobi even the ones who were summoned but defeated watch the battle with anticipation. All of them wondering on who is going to win....The rest of the Akatsuki, Jiraiya, Asuma, Zabuza, Haku, The past Kages, the Uchiha clan, the Kira clan, Orochimaru (idc if somehow he's alive in the manga, they mentioned that he was still living in Kabuto's body but no that pedo is gone in my story)......Lady Chiyo, Danzou, Hayate, Dosu, Hizashi, Kin, Zaku, Yashamaru, Gaara's mom, The sound 5 , Kakashi's team, and many many more shinobi.

No one knew what would happen......they were all rooting for different sides. Hell was rooting for 'Madara' while Heaven was rooting for the rest of the shinobi world. The Akatsuki however were stuck in the middle. Even though they were evil they all had grown accustomed to Mariah and missed her even after how they treated her even though they were following orders.

They watched from hell as Mariah along with the rest of the shinobi were fighting the tailed beasts. Different screens were displayed showing each battle going on but the only one that they could focus on was the one that showed Mariah.

"Damn she's gotten stronger," Hidan commented. (yes he eventually died)

"Yeah........she's more powerful then we imagined." Kisame agreed.

"I have a feeling that when she was with us she was holding back." Sasori assumed.

"Also who would've thought that Itachi had been lying about who he really was this whole time.....he was never one of us." Deidara said.

"He's been holding back this whole time and keeping silent for many years....to think he held so many secrets.....none of us really knew anything about him. Only Mariah knew him more than us...." Sasori said.

"Well we don't know anything about each other anyway. We all kept to ourselves." Kakuzu joined in.

"True,"

They switched their gaze over to Itachi's fight where he and Sasuke were fighting Kabuto. They studied their fellow acquaintance as he fought alongside his little brother. They had wondered on why Itachi didn't show up in Hell along with the rest of them once he died and now they got their answer....He was on the good guy side the whole time.
