//------------------------------// // Scroll XIV // Story: Path of the Six Ponies // by Prismfire Productions //------------------------------// -Sasuke's POV- "Man, we have been waiting for over a day now and yet there has still been no sign of the shinobi or those ponies." Sasuke thought to himself. "Maybe they went into the portal to try and recruit more backup, but no matter, it will not help their cause for they will DIE." "Umm, I have a question," White Tiger asked. "What if they are never going to return to this spot? What then?" "Well, that is simple, we will scout the Hidden Leaf Village until we find our targets, then try and make them surrender. However, if they chose to fight, then we will eliminate them. I want to make sure there is no opposition against us when we do our take over." "Got it boss." Jirayia and White Tiger replied together. Sasuke then resumed his thinking. "Now I need to formulate a plan. All three of us cannot face them head on, we would lose. We could use the portal to our advantage, that is one way they cannot fall back on, unless they go back through the portal. That would put the ball in their court since I have no idea what the other side is like but they do. If two of us go one way and the other in the opposite direction, that leaves a hole in the direction not covered. The best option is to approach from all three sides, but then again, some of those ponies have fucking wings, making them the wild card. There is no way we can cover the air since none of us can fly, but if I hurt their wings with a Fireball Jutsu, they will be grounded and have no chance since none of them have chakra and do not know any jutsu." "Ok, I got a plan," Sasuke told the others. "White Tiger will attack from the left, Jirayia from the right, and I will cover the middle, that is if they went to the other world and are about to come back. I am going to damage the flying ponies' wings with a Fireball Jutsu, otherwise we will die from an aerial attack. Remember, I will give the order to attack if they do not surrender. That will be our battle plan, are we clear?" "Yes sir!" The others replied. "Good" Sasuke chuckled. At that time they all saw the portal start glowing, and out of the portal came the shinobi and their pony friends. "Ok guys, this is it," Sasuke said in a low whisper. "time to set our plan into motion." -No one's POV- The ponies and shinobi all had just gone back through the portal, leading those who were not there the first time to stare in awe. Then something caught Twilight's attention. "Um guys, did you see that?" "What sis? I did not see anything." Shining Armour replied. "Off in the distance, about 200 feet ahead," Twilight stated. "I thought that I saw some movement. Hold on for one second while I verify my assumption." She then used the Byakugan and indeed, see picked up on the chakra paths of three beings. "You can come out now, I can see your chakra paths. I swear, if you want to do a surprise attack, at least conceal your chakra so that I would not be able to track you then." "You can use the Byakugan? How impressive, I would never think a non-Hyuuga could use that technique." A lone figure emerged from the bushes, his appearance slightly freaking out the ponies. He wore simple grey clothing that had a purple rope around his waist. Naruto immediately became enraged and Sakura flinched. "What do you want Sasuke?" Naruto asked. "It is quite simple you little brat," he replied, "I am actually going to give you bastards a choice, either you come quietly and surrender. or you will die a horrible and painful death. I am sure my helpers will make you think my way." When he said this, two figures emerged from behind him. Twilight's, Kakashi's, Naruto's, Tsunade's, and Minato's blood ran cold. "JIRAYIA!" Tsunade and Naruto said in unison. "Wait a second..." Minato said as he turned his attention to the third figure, "there is no way that is wh-" "DAD?!" Twilight and Kakashi turned as white as a ghost, making Twilight look like the Alicorn version of Rarity. "We watched you die! How is this possible?" Sasuke just chuckled. "I knew these two would make you think about your decision. You see, I was hiding in these here bushes during Naruto's fight with Madara doing some scout work on Naruto's jutsu training that I could use in our final fight. As we all know, you ponies interrupted the fight before all living hell broke loose. I have to admit, Pinkie's special is down right deadly and since she based it off of Rainbow's special, I imagine that it is just as powerful. Speaking of which, congrats to the two of you as well as Hinata and the brat, too bad you will die before you get married. By the way, I heard your flashback Twilight and it did bring a tear to my eye, I even followed you most of the way back to the village to see if there was a thing else I could use against against you, that is when I decided to get these two here to help me." "So..so how..are they here?" Fluttershy asked. "I used a legendary technique, it is a special jutsu that allows the caster to bring dead people back to life and use them as puppets, the Reanimation Jutsu. Now I have a question, who used it on Minato and Kushina again?" Twilight let the name of the jutsu echo and burn its way around her brain, growing more and more angrier with each passing second. "So what is your choice?" Sasuke questioned as the feeling sunk in of the calm before the storm.
