38 Chapter 38 : Rasengan (2/2)
He flashed across the ground and plunged his lightning infused arm into the enemy. The enemy exploded into lava, burning through Kakashi's vest and hand. He grimaced and backed away.
”Who are you?” He asked. Cuffing a kunai around his face.
”hahaha. Looks like you're having a little trouble there. Could you maybe take your mask off for me.” A sadistic, flirting voice said. ”I reallllllyyyyyy want to see how handsome you are.”
Kakashi caught the edge of another kunai blocking a barrage of incoming knives. The mayor moved everyone further into the trees, trying to avoid the battle.
His lone sharingan eye scanned the area, until he focused on the volcano in the distance. Chakra was mixed into the lava.
He turned around in fury. ”Did you erupt this volcano?!”
”Hmhmhmh. Maybe.”
Finally, a tall, slinder woman appeared in front of the copy ninja. Her auburn hair seemed refreshed in the heat of the night. ”Mei Terumi, jonin of the Hidden Mist. Nice to meet you Kakashi Hatake.”

”I found it sensei.” Rei whispered. Eight chains rocketed into the ground below her causing the halt of her opponents.
”Lets see if that training paid off.” She thought.
Cracks formed in the earth while the small debree and pebbles cluttering the ground shook wildly. Rei closed her eyes and focused.
-----------------
Flashback bruh.
”Sensei! There's no way I can do that!” Rei breathed with frustration, staring at Kakashi who was absorbed in his reading. He looked up. ”Listen. Think of your chains as an extension of the body. Like Kenji. Have you seen him swing his sword?”
”Yes.”
”And did you see any wasted movements or kinks in the flow of his strikes?”
”.....No. But I feel like I'm inferior to him. Sasuke too.” She sadly lowered her face. ”Every time we go on a mission, I feel like they overshadow me. I'm not even needed on the team and-”
Kakashi gripped her shoulder. ”You aren't inferior in any way. Do you think you would have graduated early if you were inferior?”
”......”
”Look.” Kakashi looked into her eyes. ”You're just like your mother.” He smiled. ”You're a loud mouth. Annoying, hot-headed and crazy” Rei felt even worse.
”But that's why I know you can be even greater than she was. Believe in me and your teammates. And believe in yourself the most. When you do that, I know you'll get it. And when you do, your dad asked me to teach you something else that I'm sure you'll love.”
---------------------
Eight chains burrowed from the ground with haste. They were too fast. And apart from that,after everything was in place, Rei had changed out the sharp edges for something else. Instead, each chain had a spiraling ball of chakra attached to the end. Two chains pummeled the enemy straight into the back, while three more whipped around ankles, throwing them to the ground. The other three wrapped around bodies at the speed of sound.
”Rasengan!”
All at once, the spiraling balls of chakra seeped into the skin of each Mist shinobi, driving them into the ground and surrounding buildings.
Rei smiled. But she was also spent. She used her remaining chakra to build a prison cell out of her chains for each individual. Another skill she thought of. There was no escaping the prison cell either. She decided to leave them. They wouldn't be waking up anytime soon. The people came first.
”Let's go.” Rei limped holding the girls hand. With burning buildings and fear all around.
Another powerhouse was beginning to take shape.

Note: I really feel like the past two chapter could make it into the actual Narutoverse because I feel like I'm writing an actual shonen with all the flashbacks and stuff. lol. Some explaining about how the Mist found them and maybe some future Mist plans will be in the next one. Hope you enjoyed. It only gets better from here. I'm out. YERRR!
