Two Paths (Sequel to Why Me)

Attack on the village!

(Mariah's POV)

So the next day when we woke up we went further into the base and put Suigetsu in a water tank to heal him.  We all sat around listening to Suigetsu complain. Sasuke kept his distance from everyone.

"Why did you leave my sword behind!?" Suigetsu shouted.

"Cram it, Suigetsu! Be grateful we even brought you back!" Karin said.

I scoffed at what she said.

"We? We!? Call me crazy, but I believe you were knocked out too!"

"Yeah, because I was protecting you guys!"

I sighed at their bickering.

"You both protected us.......we're all very close friends." Juugo spoke up.

"Psh, friends." I thought.

"Fine....so Sasuke, are you really gonna use the bijuu's power?" Suigetsu asked.

"Maybe, maybe not......but whatever happens, I no longer need it." He answered.

"How come?"

"I've got a new power..one strong enough to obliterate Konaha." Sasuke thought.

I bit my lip at his thought. He's going to destroy the village. Sasuke reached over to get his water but he missed and it fell over. I gasped. I know what's happening to him.

"Something wrong, Sasuke." Karin asked.

Sasuke put his hand over his eye.

"No....nothing," He replied.

I knew that he was lying, I know what's wrong with him.

"What is it Karin?" Juugo asked.

"I feel someone's chakra outside.....we've been followed."

Sasuke and I then disappeared and reappeared in front of a guy from the cloud village. The others appeared around him but he remained calm because he knew his fate.

"Mariah, we're going to seal the Bijuu now." Madara's voice said.

"I have to go, it's time." I said disappearing.

I appeared next to Kisame.

"Now we wait for Pein," Madara said holding 'Bee'

"I see Sasuke got the job done." Zetsu said.

"Madara...." I started.

"Silence," He said turning to me.

I looked down keeping my mouth shut. I was trying to tell him that the person he was holding wasn't real. We then began the extraction of the bijju.

"It takes forever when there's only a few of us." "Just shut up and concentrate." Zetsu said.

As the extraction was taking place finally everyone noticed it. Bee poofed and turned into a tentacle.

"Looks like Sasuke messed up...." Kisame said.

"Ahahahahahah! A tentacle!!" "Don't laugh!"

"And that's what I was trying to tell you," I said.

"You knew!" Madara shouted.

"Yes I did, if it weren't for Taka and them getting in danger every five seconds then I would've been able to capture him. But noooo you just had to let them come along. When I realized it I couldn't go back because I was seriously injured since I was protecting them."
