I followed Shino into the woods. Soon,Bisuke could smell a scent as well.

"It seems he is separated from his partner." Bisuke said.

"Can you smell his partner anywhere?" I asked.

"No" I nodded.

"We are quite close" Shino said.

"Alright" I said and sped up.

Finally,we went into a clearing. He stood looking at the lake.

"A-Aniki.." I gasped. Looks like I'll face him again..

"Imouto.. I see you brought a friend.." He smiled.

"Ah.. I'm lucky to meet one of the Seven Swordsmen." A voice spoke.

We turned our heads to the voice.

"You.. Mangetsu's brother?" Aniki questioned.

"Ah.. I see you remember me. Yes I am. Name is Suigetsu."

"That weapon.. Kabutowari?" He gasped. "How did you get it?"

"Indeed. Let's say.. I killed for it" Suigetsu answered. "I was actually hunting for Kubikiribocho. Unfortunately,it was taken by his daughter" He looked at me.

I narrowed my eyes at him.

"Let's have a showdown,shall we? If I beat you,I'll have your sword."

"What if you lose?" I asked.

"You have to kill me to win. An that will be the swords I collected. I have Nuibari and Kiba sealed in my scroll." He answered.

"You killed to steal that many swords from the Seven Swordsmen?" I asked angrily.

"It is my dream to collect all swords like my brother. To master all of them"

"Deal. We will fight for he swords" Nii-san looked at me and smiled. "Let's kick his butt"

I stared at him for a little while.

"Yeah" I grinned. "Shino,find Kakashi and help him. Tell him not to bother me. This is my fight and mine alone. Help him and keep him safe" I ordered.

"Very well" He said and hopped away with Bisuke.

"Careful,Sakura!" Bisuke shouted.

I took Kubikiribocho off my necklace and transformed it into it's original size. Aniki unwrapped Samehada.

"Sakura,I gave you a shark stuffed toy as your birthday present through Kakashi" He chuckled when he said shark. "You remember?"

"Yeah,why?" I asked curiously.

"I hope you still keep it because a sword is inside." I widened my eyes.

"W-What?! A s-s-sword?? Inside??" I gasped.

"I shrunk it and sewed it inside. It is one of the sword of the Seven Swordsmen. I got it when he met him during a mission. He wanted to be a normal civilian."

"Oh.. Why tell me now? What sword is it?" I asked.

"Just in case I don't have a chance to. I always forget to tell you." He chuckled. "It is Shibuki. Tou-san explained to you about all of the swords,right?"

"Yeah.. Why would you give me?"

"I just wanted to. I don't need it. I have Hiramekarei with me anyways. That,he died and passed me the sword"

"Oi. Done blabbering?" Suigetsu said in an annoyed voice.

I rolled my eyes at him and charged with Nii-san.

Maybe for the first and last time.. We will work together and fight.

Should I be happy that I'm fighting alongside my brother?

Or should I feel guilty that I'm siding with an Akatsuki?

Any how,this will be my only chance.

It might be..my last.
