Hinata was gripping Orochimaru by his pale throat, her eyes were burning with rage as her nails pierced his skin, small trails of blood dripping from the small punctures. The pain to his neck did nothing to deter the wicked smile on his face.

"Why, why are you doing this?"

"At first I all I wanted was your knowledge but now, now I want to see how far I can push you, how far I bend your flexible body before you break and finally submit yourself to me." Her grip faltered slightly as his tongue licked up the side of her face, that was not the answer the Hyuga heiress was expecting. Before Orochimaru could take advantage of her loose grip, she tightened once more and knocked his feet out from under him and slammed him into the ground stemming small cracks at the impact.

"You kidnapped me, had me tortured, kidnapped my dad, and left me traumatized just to see how much I could handle, to try and get me to submit to you? Are you fucking kidding me!" Her tightly clenched fist slammed into his head eliciting nothing but a hiss-like laugh as blood trailed down from his lip. His tongue wrapped around her neck and threw her off, making her back hit a tree and knocking the breath out of her lungs. The snake's long tongue flicked out of his mouth and lapped up the blood his thoughts on how fun this was going to turn out. That fire in her eyes, he was going to crush it. Hinata pushed herself up and rushed towards him starting their clash, their chakra's baring down on one another as he dodged her flurry of attacks.

"Give me all you've got, I want to see how much you've grown since last time." The snake Sanin thrust his hands towards the blue haired girl and released the snakes from his palms forcing her to flip out of the way and pull out a kunai to slash the poison carrying serpents. The few snakes that impaled into the ground Hinata used as a bridge, running up the snakes before Orochimaru could draw them back to his body. She aimed a punch o his face and when he dodged to the left, her left leg came swinging up through his defenses and cracking his sternum on impact. Before one of his now shattered rips could pierce into his lungs, Orochimaru shed his skin, molting the layer like that of the snakes he uses. The new, seeming soulless body hung limp for a second as the slick slime from his mold dripped off of it until the bones cracked and seemed to snap into place. Orochimaru raised his head and that infuriating smirk was still plastered on his face. "Ahh I didn't think I would have to change so soon, you have grown well my pet."

"Fuck you." In yet another battle of brute strength and speed, it became clear that Orochimaru was outclassed and outmatched, Hinata's alternating use of her Olympic style and Hyuga style was too difficult to find a solid pattern in her attacks and had ended with Orochimaru shedding another body yet again when all of his chakra points were closed off and she all but ripped his arm out if its socket. The only other person Orochimaru had felt so overwhelmed by in close combat was Itachi, but as far as he knew, Orochimaru still had the upper hand in Jutsu's. The snake Sanin put some distance between the two of them, pinning Hinata down with a snake that came from behind giving him just enough time to complete the summoning jutsu to bring out Manda before Hinata ripped the snake apart with her bare hands uncaring of the blood that splattered against her face.

"Manda-sama, restrain that girl. Beat her just before death if you have to."

"Hah that puny brat is beating you, next time you call me for something so insignificant I'll eat you." Manda hissed out, baring his fangs toward his summoner. Orochimaru expected some kind of fear to be on Hinata's face when she saw Manda, even someone strong like her would struggle with a summon as strong as him. When he looked at her face she was smiling, grinning even as she eyed down the giant snake. She swiped the blood that was dripping from one of her wounds and her nimble hands moved into the familiar signs before slamming into the ground. Smoke billowed around her and when it dissipated there was a large reddish-golden lion whose fur was shining to the point of it looking like it was glowing in the bright sunlight.

Orochimaru blinked as he stared at the massive lion, he had never seen a lion summon before and was shocked that Hinata had managed a contract with arguably one of the strongest animals in existence. His yellow eyes were narrowd onto the two as Hinata bowed to the large creature, earning a bow in return. Orochimaru has never seen a summon behave so cordially to their 'master' they were always ornery and demanding compensation but Hinata and her summon seemed to have a mutual respect for one another.

"Thank you for showing up Muramasa-sama, I'm in a tight spot and would appreciate your help in smacking this asshole to his grave and can't do that if Manda is attacking me as well." Muramasa noticed the tenseness of her body and the blood flowing from her shoulder and he deduced that this was the man that Hinata had vowed to destroy when they had spoken for the first time. His large paw only slightly pressed up against the child hoping to give her some confidence and comfort. She leaned into his paw and ran her fingers through his silky fur waiting for his response.

"Of course Hinata-hime I'd be glad to fight on your behalf." Muramasa's glowing dark blue eyes looked over to the Snake duo, his eyes narrowing and he bared canines in warning as he spoke. "Manda-chan it's been a long time old friend. Has your body healed from last time we fought? It would be a shame to have to fight you if you are unable to perform to the best of your ability... not that it would matter much against a king like myself."

"I'll squeeze that arrogance out of you asshole." Manda raised his body and struck at Muramasa but was pushed away with a harsh swing of his paw. The impact of their attacks had wind forcefully pushing up against Hinata, whipping her long pinned back hair around and forcing her to apply chakra to her feet to stay planted to the ground. Muramasa noticed the young girls struggle and he placed one of his paws in front of her, instructing the Hyuga to hold onto him. Her fingers gripped into his fur and he let out a loud, ear splitting roar that was laced with wind chakra aimed directly at Manda who was guarding Orohcimaru. Hinata held on tighter to Muramasa's fur as she felt the ground beneath her rumble with the force of his roar. The force of the wind was so strong it sent the massive snake skidding backwards and Orochimaru flying through the air before hitting the ground, his body skipping like a stone over a lake.

"Hinata-hime go, I will move our fight away from here so you are able to fight this man alone, I will return to my home when finished here."

"Thank you, I promise to give you whatever you want when this is over." Muramasa's large sandpaper tongue gently licked up Hinata's bruised body in the same manner he does to his children, making her lips drop the frown and turn into a smile for the first time since he had arrived. "Be safe Muramasa-sama."

"You as well my child." With long strides Muramasa bounded off away from the humans, Manda following in annoyance as they prepared their battle. The Byakugan princess could hear their battle raging on but that didn't matter as her eyes were narrowed back onto her target. She could feel her ring pulsating: Itachi was going to arrive soon, Deidara was also on his way to her, Tobi and Kisame were heading back to the hideout, and Hidan and Kakuzu had sent nothing yet. She wanted to finish this before Itachi or Deidara would arrive, knowing Itachi he would step in when he saw the bloody and bruised form, she can't molt her skin like Orochimaru to make all the cuts disappear.

Orochimaru was up and ready to fight once again, his damn summon had left him but that didn't matter he still had the upper hand on distance combat and he was going to use it to the fullest. He knew his prize was skilled in water ninjutsu and could at least use a variation of lightning but he was able to use 3 elements to perfection and close to mastering a fourth, this girl was finally going to break beneath his foot. In swift succession, he sent earth and wind attacks towards the girl, when she dodged the spikes of earth the wind managed to push her into the air leaving her open for a fireball. Hinata saw the large ball of raging fire hurtling towards her as she fell from the air. There was no room to dodge or produce any water to protect herself so instead she threw her left leg around her body and used the momentum to angle herself so the fire burned into her side instead of hitting her entire body head on.

A pained yelp escaped her mouth as the fire burned through her shirt and a few layers of her skin, the smell of burning flesh found their way to her nose, making her gag slightly. She gripped tightly at the burnt skin and landed on the ground, her feet taking the brunt of the impact as she skid backwards on shaking legs. Orochimaru was only faring slightly better than the girl, he looked relatively unscathed but was down to his last few skins and his face was even paler than normal, the exhausted sweat glistening on his skin as he panted. Hinata stood up and released her hold on her side, straightening up gritting her teeth through the pain. Without wasting any more time, she sent a water serpent at the Snake man, having the creature grip him in its liquified jaws as she applied lightning chakra into the serpent, letting it shock him before he broke the jutsu. The normally straight inky black hair of the Sanin was staticky and frazzled from the electrification to his cells. His eyes wandered over the small form before him, hunched over in pain and moving more sluggish in exhaustion from the multiple jutsu used and the raging battle between them. He thought she was at her wit's end, the broken look in her eyes as she glared at him was invigorating.

The rogue slithered his way to her and her body straightened out, there was no way she was going to lose and if she exaggerated her exhaustion she'd be able to bring him once more into close quarters to crush his heart with her bare hands. She wanted to be close as the light left this eyes, she wanted to see his face lose that fucking smirk as he realized everything he had built is gone before his life ends. Orochimaru's neck stretched out, moving at incomparable speeds towards the girl, his fangs bared as he went to place a curse mark on her, one that would drive her weakened mind to submit to him, to become his pet, a perfect toy soldier to appease any of his desires. His lips curled back, his jaw unhinged as he was at her neck but right as his lips made contact with the supple skin of her neck, her fist came barreling into his jaw, releasing a mass amount of her chakra from a single point in her fist forcing his head to snap sideways and his body to follow the direction his head was sent from the extreme power of the impact. Orochimaru stood up slowly and pushed his jaw back into place, the smirk on his face was gone and his yellow orbs were narrowed staring deadly towards the disobedient little girl. He swiped a lanky finger over his tensed jaw and brought it up rubbing the crimson liquid between his thumb and index finger.

A low, angry chuckle rumble echoed through the shattered grounds as Hinata met the snake-like eyes of the angry Sanin. He was done playing nice, it was time to end this. He was going to disfigure her, Kabuto would put her back together and make sure she was still breathing. Hinata's heavily breathing body tensed as he laughed. She had never been so inexplicably terrified, all of the other times he smiled at her as she was the prey but now, he was staring at her with such anger and his aura was so menacing if she wasn't so filled with white hot, blinding rage she would have run for the hills.

"I have been giving you a chance to submit but you've been impertinent and now, I'm angry. Little girl, I'm going to bring you within an inch of your life and then maybe you'll understand how not amusing this has become." He hissed out as his blood lust bared down on the wide eyed princess. When he took a step forward, Hinata's shining lavender eyes narrowed once more and a sadistic smirk overtook her features.

"Run your mouth all you want because soon you wont be able to say anything. I think you know that cuz from over here it looks like you're scared of me, if the sweat of your face says anything, you're pushing your limit." Her words rang true and were spoken with such confidence it hid the tremble running through her body. They both knew this was it, one was finally going down and by the lack of sounds around them, their summons had finally finished their battle as well. Both ninja's charged at one another, fueling their attacks. Orochimaru's Sword of Kusanagi pushed its way out of his throat as the seemingly never ending sword weaved its way towards the bluenette as she sent chakra to a specific point in her body and activated her Byakugan and prepared for a fatal series of strikes.

Itachi and Jūgo could both feel the large surge of malicious chakras surround the area. The long haired Uchiha breathed a sigh in relief knowing Hinata was still alive but with the large influx of chakras he knew it was their final strikes towards one another so he pushed himself to go faster, he needed to get there to save her if need be. He made it onto the scene just in time to witness the Kusanagi sword pierce through Hinata's chest and blood to flow out of her mouth as she choked on the crimson fluid. His eyes evolved into the Mangekyo and he was ready to rip the head off of Orochimaru but before he could, a soft yet firm voice called out to him.

"No." His eyes met hers and instead of the light fading, they were burning with passion and victory. A large burst of her chakra filled the area, more chakra than Itachi had ever felt come from her before and at the center of her forehead a lilac purple diamond appeared before shifting and spreading around her body in intricate black designs. She wiped the blood from her lips and the bruises on her body faded, Orochimaru stared at her in shock, his entire being filling with rage and dread as he recognized the jutsu.

"No, you little brat, HOW!" She could feel her body overflowing with power, the chakra released fueling her every cell as her body mended itself and was basically pouring chakra out of her. It was unbelievable and completely amazing, she felt powerful, invincible. Hinata gripped onto the blade, her hands healing as fast as it was cutting into her palms as she pulled her body down the blade closer and closer to the Sanin. He retracted the blade and slashed at her throat, slitting it and letting the blood flow but as soon as it started, the wound sealed itself closed.He went for another attack but was too late her strength had increased exponentially and any damage he inflicted upon her was healed instantly. The jutsu would wear off at some point but his time was already up. Her hand gripped around his throat as they went tumbling to the ground the bloodied smirk never leaving her face. Her smirk turned into a full blown smile as she felt the chakra pulse from Hidan, he and Kakuzu had found and saved her father, there was nothing left for the Sanin to hold over her. In a hail Mary Orochimaru spoke out, "If you want to see your father again you won't kill me." In return the Hyuga heiress just laughed it seemed almost too innocent, the beautiful sound would have been music if she wasn't ready to rip his throat out.

"But that's where you're wrong, you see my father is safe. The whole time we've been together I've been having my little friends take down each one of your hideouts and thankfully Hidan found him so you have nothing over me anymore." She held tighter against his throat as her lips leaned down brushing against his ear. "So tell me, how does it feel now that I've taken everything you've spent your whole life building, all gone in an instant. My plan wasn't to just kill you, I've taken everything. Killed all of you're loyal followers and released your unwilling captives. In death everything down your reputation will be destroyed." His body fueled with his final attempt to kill the girl but her hand was plunged into his chest before he could react. Her fingers gripped around his heart and squeezed, feeling the muscle cease its pumping under the pressure and when she added her chakra, the entire thing overflowed with the interwoven chakra and burst, spraying blood out of the cavity. When she removed her hand it was dripping with the hot plasma and her eyes just stared at it before they rolled to the back of her head and she toppled over, only being saved from hitting the ground by Itachi catching her in his arms.

The black lines on her body receded back into forming the purple diamond with the limited chakra still flowing through her exhausted body. The Uchiha cradled the girl in his arms and the warmth emanating from his body woke her just enough to smell the unmistakable scent bringing a small smile to grace her blood smeared lips.

"Mmm I need to find Suiget-su." She breathed out struggling slightly.

"You foolish hime you need rest." He chided lightly, picking her up from the ground.

"He needs he-lp."

"Always thinking of others before yourself huh?" He smiled softly at the girl the harshness from his sharp features faded.

"You're o-one to talk." She tried to glare at him but once again it looked like a pout that made him poke her forehead softly. Itachi walked over to Jūgo who was conversing with the birds.

"Please take care of her while I handle Orochimaru." Carefully he shifted the girl into the large arms of the young teen before turning back to the dead man and working on sealing the body into a body seal. The ginger stared down at the girl in his arms as he carefully held her to not squish her. This was the girl that had him saved, that found a way for him to have freedom once more, the one to defeat the monster that was Orochimaru. Even when ready to succumb to sleep, she wanted to save another person first, Suigetsu that name was familiar to him. Her eyes blinked as they went in and out of focus trying to see the person holding her. When she was able to make out spiky orange locks she took her guess.

"Jūgo?"

"Yes, I thank you Hinata-hime for bringing Itachi-sama to me. I am in your debt for providing me freedom to live with the nature." He spoke with respect and honesty, gratitude overflowing at the girl resting in his large arms. He carefully pulled some of her burnt and ripped shirt around into a good resting place to save her modesty of the skin that was showing. The dried blood and dirt smeared on her face took away from her features but he could see the soft elegance of her princess-like face. He was slightly taken aback at how such a soft looking girl was able to defeat Orochimaru, she looked more suited for being a feudal lord's daughter or mistress than a stone cold ninja, it was hard to see her as the same girl that had just plunged her hand into a man's chest and all but ripped his heart out.

"I-I'm glad you're ok. P-Please save Suigetsu. I think I-I'm too sleepy now." Her voice trailed off as sleep finally took over to let her body rest and rejuvenate from the intense battle and extreme chakra loss. Itachi had walked back up to the taller boy and brought the knocked out girl back into his arms, his stoic face unchanging as he began his trek forward and into the final hideout. They moved through the rooms quick and efficient until they finally found the one they were looking for. Inside the stone walled room there was an array of empty tubes fit for bodies but there was only one that was plugged in and glowing with a greenish blue light. The only visible trait in the seemingly empty tube was a set of purple eyes staring at the new guests. The eyes bobbed up and down slightly, flashing in amusement as they took in the intruders.

"You know when Lord Orochimaru finds you he's going to kill you, or have me kill you. I don't like serving him but if it means living I'd gladly cut you all apart, especially you Jūgo you psycho bastard."

"Lord Orochimaru is dead."

"Hahaha no way, that son of a bitch never dies..." He took one good look at the two and the knocked out girl before gaping in shock. "Wait you're not joking. Well damn, who is the idiot that fought him and won?" Both of the non-captured boys eyes turned towards the sleeping girl and Suigetsu finally got a good look at her. She was covered in dry blood and her clothing was shredded like she was in a battle but there were no wounds on her being, the only sight of a ton of blood was surrounding her hand. "The little cutie killed him? I don't believe it... wait is she that Hyuga girl that escaped?"

"Yes."

"Man Lord Orochimaru was pissed after that one, she even riled up Kabuto man I'm finally meeting the legend in person. I'm impressed that she came back and got her revenge, which brings me to why are you are all here?"

"Hinata-hime has requested of us to free you from your captivity and ask that you join the Akatsuki." Suigetsu opened his mouth to respond but Itachi could tell it was coming so he kept talking in his bored tone before letting Suigetsu speak. "She wanted me to tell you something about how you were wanting to collect all of the swords and if you teamed up with her, she would help you. After all, she knows 2 of the remaining 3 swordsmen." The younger Hozuki brother was in awe, this girl not only killed Orochimaru but she knew information about him that he sure as hell didn't tell her or anyone she would have spoken with. He moved at the beat of his own drum and was excited about the prospect of freedom but he wanted to meet the seemingly genius girl before he made his final decision. I mean he at least had enough respect to wait for the girl who is providing him his freedom to wake up before making his decision.

"Fine, get me out of here and I'll wait to talk to the cutie myself, I'm interested to see if she can get me the seven swords and I want ta know if she's as crazy as she sounds." The water moved and his sharp teeth became visible as he grinned like a cheshire cat. Jugo smashed the glass and Suigetsu's liquified body spilled out of the container, swirling around in the small makeshift pool until his cells were free of the chemical forcing them to separate and he reformed in all of his naked glory, only deciding to put his clothes on when Itachi sent him a shiver worthy glare. The new trio and a K.O'd Hinata left the hideout and walked to where Deidara was sitting on his bird, blue eye trailing over the newcomers until his vision landed on his best friend's sleeping figure wrapped in the Uchiha's cloak. He could make out the smeared blood on her face and the interesting looking diamond on her forehead but there seemed to be no visible injuries. He smirked and let out a pleased huff, the girl actually managed to take down the seeming immortal snake bastard and everything he owned in one fail swoop.

With ease Deidara hopped off the hovering clay Owl and his eye hardened into a glare at Itachi. Suigetsu sipped his water and watched the entertaining interaction a small distance back. Jūgo watched close to Itachi, sensing the hatred and jealousy off the blonde instantly and standing in ready to protect his new cage if deemed necessary.

"Hand her over Uchiha, I don't want her tainted anymore by your cursed, artless bloodline un. I'll fly her home faster than you can carry her, you can follow along like the bastard you are, yeah." Itachi did nothing but release a heavy sigh and cradle Hinata's body closer to his own. As much as he hated to admit it, Deidara was right and getting Hinata home and into a bed was priority so letting her go with the bomber was the best option. The unchanging stoic face of the Uchiha did nothing but spur the blonde's anger but he soon smirked as Itachi held out the limp form of the Hyuga, Deidara grabbing hold of her smaller from and sliding her onto his back. His feet firmly placed themselves back onto his owl and he took to the skies, smoothly flying home as he could feel the slow breathing of his friend as her head rested on his shoulder, her nose ever so slightly brushing his neck when she inhaled.

"Awe man, I wanted to fly to the hideout too."

A/N: YAYYY THE BUILDUP IS FINALLY OVER! Orochimaru is dead..... for now???? Kabuto is on the run, Suigetsu makes his appearance. More fun time with the Akatsuki coming up next chapter and Hinata's finally going to get a new outfit!!!!! I really had fun creating this chapter I thought it was the perfect moment to boost hinata's power. Just so you know she killed him with her bare hands and not a jutsu because she wanted it to be personal if you didn't get why she used less jutsu. Plus she was saving her chakra up to release the seal! Finally! Love you all thanks so much for reading!

Question: If the situation presented itself would you be able to kill somebody?

My answer: Yep, I definitely would......... so yeah uhh........byeeee
