Description
Sasuke now found himself sitting on his bed at home, he looked in the mirror he had in his lap and his eyes started to water again as he saw the familiar eye lining that Orochimaru had now surrounding his eyes.

Tsunade said that since his curse seal was back it was stronger and Orochimaru's essence was succeeding in slowly taking over his body.

He had given up now he just refused to leave his house he felt ashamed and he had lost his will to fight ever since he found the news that there was nothing Tsunade could do.

There was a knock on the door but he didn't get up, he just sat there but he heard the door open itself and five minutes later he saw Kakashi walk into his room, but he didn't say anything instead he sat on the bed next to Sasuke.

Sasuke avoided eye contact he didn't want Kakashi to see him like this. "Sensei..." Sasuke whispered.

"Sasuke I know your upset...and I don't blame you...but I want you to know that we all are here for you...especially me...but we need your help Sasuke...all your friends need you...and so do I...and I know you don't have much time left. But I'm doing all the research I can to see how to fix this...I promise I will not abandon you Sasuke." He said softly.

Sasuke slowly looked at him with his yellow snake like eyes. "I can't move it burns..." Sasuke whispered looking at the curse seal on his shoulder, which was glowing bright orange.

"I know...but you have to try...I know you're in pain. But we all need you Sasuke we don't know their abilities...you're the only one that does." Kakashi said brushing some stands of hair from Sasuke's face which was now noticeably pale as the rest of his body.

"Please Sasuke..." Kakashi said.

"I'm scared..." Sasuke whispered.

"I know you are...I wouldn't want to go out there either...but we need you're help." Kakashi said.

Sasuke looked down again noticing the silent tear that was streaming down his cheek.

"You think about it Sasuke...I won't force you." He said.

~XXXXX~

Juugo, Sakura, and Kakashi were standing in front of another body of Pain and just stared at it.

"I have no idea who this one is..." Juugo said as he looked at the body.

It was shorter and it looked like the body of a female.

Pain suddenly moved his hands together and then slammed them on the ground and three giant centipedes appeared and started crawling towards them.

Sakura landed a strong punch to ones head and it fell to the ground.

Juugo transformed into his level 3 curse seal form and ran at Pain but the centipede suddenly got in his way so he landed a super strong punch and the centipede crashed into the other one and they both fell dead.

Kakashi ran at Pain and struck his Lightning Blade into it's shoulder and then Pain kicked Kakashi hard in the gut and Kakashi kneeled in Pain.

Sakura jumped up into the air and came down with a sharp punch to Pain's head sending him to the flying to the ground,Kakashi looked at the centipede's then drew a kunai, but Pain landed a powerful kick to Kakashi's chest before he could attack and Kakashi was instantly on the ground, his kunai was now in Pain's hand and he stabbed Kakashi in the leg making him cry out.

Sakura tried to sneak up on him but Pain hit her with a backhand when she tried to jump on him, just when Pain was about to stab Kakashi in the chest a sword came through his chest from behind and Pain's mouth dropped open and blood started to leak out of his mouth.

Then it fell on top of Kakashi who shoved the dead body off.

They could now see Sasuke standing there looking down at the ground trying to avoid eye contact.

"Sasuke..." Sakura whispered, she hadn't known Sasuke's condition had gotten this bad she hadn't seen him for a few days.

Kakashi looked at Sakura telling her to not mention anything, and Juugo already knew Sasuke was hurting so he decided not to say anything anyways.

Sakura swallowed as a tear streamed down her face as she looked at Sasuke's once beautiful body.

"Glad to see you made it Sasuke...thank you." Kakashi said smiling at him, but Sasuke didn't smile he didn't even look at him he just kept his eyes lowered, then he started back off to Konoha and the others followed not talking to him, they all knew Sasuke was having a hard time and that it'd be best not to bother him about the subject.

With that they all made it back to Konoha.

They all had to wait for the next assault it seemed like each day they had to deal with one body at a time , but they would be ready.
