Panting repetitively, she continued to plunged her daggers into corpses' chest as a couple of enemies surrounded her.

She stopped twirling to catch her breathe when an experiment used his ice techinques and threw ice needles towards her while she was caught off guard.

A gasp of shock escaped Rina's lips as she felt a pang of sharp knives impaled her chest.

"Shiro!"

She cried out recklessly and her best friend groaned in the pain due to the small slender that was made up of ice.

Upon landing the rough surface, Kiba had realized the event that just occurred which made him switch to go on a rampage.

"Akamaru!" He called as his fangs show off in anger after seeing his cousin hurt. "Beast Human Clone, Fang Rotating Fang!"

Just like that, he was able to wipe out the whole corpses in their area.

"Shiro, Shiro-talk to me damn it!"

He manage to chuckle when the first thing he witnessed was his friend worrying about him. "This is just a simple wound."

"Shut up, blood loss could be deadly!"

"Please," He began before burning the ice that was pierced in his body as blood overflowed when the ice melted. "Go fight, I can handle this."

"I'm so sorry." She said, hugging him tight as if he would leave.

"Don't be."

"Rina, will you let me heal him?" A voice interrupted them as Sakura walked over to them with Sasuke tailing behind.

"Sakura-neechan, are you okay now?"

"Better." Sakura replied and activated her healing abilities as she placed her hand above the wounds. "Go help your sister." She added while Tenten was trying to tame the demon.

Rina nodded in agreement before she looked to Shiro. "Thanks for saving me." She smiled after letting him go.

"You're my teammate, why wouldn't I?"

\\..~**~..//

Just as Tenten and Rina attempted to tame the monster with the use of their chains, Rai tried to use his usual skill.

"Rai, don't!" Lee warned, worried that his student may get hurt from the bright aura that illuminated around the opponent.

"Shadow of the Dancing Leaf!" Rai yelled as he miraculously succeeded in kicking the demon up to the air. He restrained his enemy before appearing behind the demon.

"First Gate: Front Lotus!" He was able to crash the foe to the ground in a ferocious amount of speed while rotating which made the demon's harmful shield deactivate.

But Rai did not stop just there.

With the enemy in a vulnerable position, Rai gathered all his chakra and power to open the third gate.

"Third Gate: Reverse Lotus!"

"That's dangerous!" Lee had scolded him again, but just like him, he was confident. The frustrated teacher wanted to stop his student however Shiro refused him to.

"Sensei, don't. That's his ultimate technique so far. He's been practicing, give him a chance."

Seeing Shiro's arm extended with his eyes sending him a gesture and Rai's determination, Lee had let his student go and watch.

With inhuman speed and strength, Rai was able to dispatch the demon flying once again as he execute vigorous kicks and punches.

On the contrary, Rai earned a couple of cuts from the demon's aura because of the multiple hits he released. So when he landed, burns and bruises were all over his body.

What is even more worse, the demon had formed up balls of deadly chakra from its mouth as he swiftly released the attack, despite the wounds on his body.

Rai was unable to move by the sudden loss of chakra and opening the third gate, which was the first for him.

Lee had tried to catch him, but he was not fast enough to reach him and avoid the attack

Once Lee was on the conflict of knowing if his student would die or not, Sasuke managed to use his teleportation jutsu with his kekkei genkai and got Rai out of the demon's revenge.

"Agh!" Rai automatically screeched due to stimuli as he felt one of the circular chakra hit his right leg.

It was only one from the many that the demon had sent and it the effect was massive. The wound was very deep as if a bomb had exploded inside his leg.

At the same time, Shiro was all patched up and Sakura head towards her next patient.

Rai hissed in pain as Sakura observed his injury.

"This is bad, he needs to be rushed to the hospital." Sakura advised and another enemy came into sight.

The greenhorn summoned a giant beast. Roaring in anger, the beast was able to block the demon from the spotlight.

However, Kakashi used his sharingan and noticed that the wounds of the demon was slowly closing-or rather healing.

"Great, another one." Kiba commented sarcastically as he scowled and they stepped abck to the branches to avoid the enemies' attack.

"Ino, I need your help now!" Kakashi shouted while Ino hopped on the top of the wall, separating the Konoha village from the forest.

She sensed Kakashi's call as she used her clan's special technique before she took a ride with Sai on his hawk.

"On the way." She remarked, seeing everyone from above. She concentrated on contacting everyone at the battlefield. "Everyone is here, Kaka-sensei."

The people flinched at hearing Ino's voice inside their heads.

"Ino-pig?" Sakura questioned as she acted first aid on Rai.

"Sakura, Rai needs medical attention. Go and stay at the hospital, you'll be safe there. We'll handle this." Kakashi ordered, but of course Sakura was against it.

"But Kaka-sensei-"

"Now, Sakura." This time, it was Sasuke who also agreed with Kakashi.

Sighing in defeat, Sakura brought Rai at her back like giving him piggy back ride. "On it," She gave one last look to everyone before glancing to Sasuke with a worried gaze. "Stay alive." She smiled as encouragement before heading out.

Once Sakura took her leave, Kakashi pursued with the battle plan. "Shiro and Rina, you're in-charge of the beast in taming it while Lee, Kiba and Akamaru kill the summon user. Sasuke and Tenten, work with me. Understood?"

"Hai!"

"Good, now go. Ino leave Sasuke and Tenten in here."

"Done." She responded as the others started their attack.

"How do you kill a demon that can practically heal itself?" Tenten asked begrudgingly as if it was impossible to face their enemy.

"There's only one way..." Kakashi began and he thought of Rina's brilliant attack in sending the corpses a paper bomb which killed them in an instant. "Blow it up."

\\..~**~..//

To start their attack, Lee and Kiba made it look as if they were out of the picture while Shiro took over in fighting the beast.

The summon user was seated on the nape of the beast's neck which made it more difficult for them to defeat the summoner.

The beast look somewhat like a giant bear with threatening orbs and sharp teeth like a shark as saliva drip from the edges of its mouth.

Shiro used his fire and air techniques to keep the beast distracted which gave Rina enough time to summon her own pet-a butterfly.

Rina's animal was bigger than the beast only by a small gap. When the beast made contact with the huge insect, the monster howled once again, prepared to take the flying animal down.

Laughing immensely, the summon user spoke up. "What are you gonna do with that insect? Fly away?" She continued to crack up as she flipped her long silky hair. "You can't defeat me with such pathetic scratch."

Rina cocked an eyebrow directly at the enemy then shook her head. "Don't judge a book by its cover." She stated and called Shiro to hide.

Then she commanded her animal to attack just and the butterfly flaps it wings in an excessive amount of strength.

Various kinds of weapons were launched from the wings of the butterfly and attacked the beast, killing it in one shot.

"Impossible, that was my top summoning beast!" The summon user shouted in disbelief.

"Katon: Goukakyuu no jutsu!" Shiro blew out fire in front of the enemy to block her sight due to the smoke that was caused by the flames.

By that cue, Kiba, Akamaru and Lee fell from the branches before jumping towards the user with their ultimate skills in order to kill her off in one go.

"Super Fang Wolf Fang!"

"Sixth Gate: Morning Peacock!"
