Strength of Heart

e puts her in bed as shes sick. Kasai is worried as he puts a damp warm cloth on her head and tends to her needs. While hes taking care of his wife hes being watched and monitored for everything he does. Kasai notices the presence but its too late. When he goes to check; whoever was watching him had been long gone.

*In a hideout*

A man reports back telling people of the birth of Kasais son that will take place in 6 months. This doesn stir any attention because they know of Kasai and how powerful he is so they don want anything to do with him. One man smiles and loves the idea of fighting Kasai. So he tells everyone that hell do it himself he will fight Kasai and take the child all alone.

6 months go by and Natsumi is giving birth to their child. Kasai is with her holding her hand trying to calm her down. Doctors surround the bed because Natsumi is in the most agonizing pain. Kasai squeezes her hand looks her into the eyes , smiles and tells her its going to be alright. In that moment as she pushes, a healthy child is born. They let Natsumi hold the baby first and as shes cuddling with him it makes Kasai cry. Just before there
e about to give Kasai his child, all the doctors faint and the baby falls. Kasai is fast enough to catch him but when he looks up he notices all the doctors are down and Natsumi is unconscious.

Kasai ” Natsumi….. Natsumi whats wrong?!

When he starts trying to wake her up his vision starts to go blurry and he can find his child. He turns around to see a man holding his baby. He slowly walks towards him telling him to give him his child back.

Yawn ” wow you really are something special. You must be one strong man in order to fight off my spell for this long. ”

Kasai ” why? Give me back my child!

Yawn smiles and tells Kasai hell be looking forward to their fight. Then he vanishes leaving Kasai on his knees. Kasai could barely stand, but he starts to crawl and he goes to where Natsumi is. He tries to get up but he can . He gets mad and starts to punch the ground as he yells. He starts crying and keeps punching the ground. Until Natsumi wakes up and puts her hand on his face. Shes crying as well and says ” please….. get our son back Kasai please….. ” Kasai is able to put his hand on top of Natsumis as he gathers the strength to pick himself up. Kasai grabs her hand with both of his eyes closed and tells her he will bring their son back. Natsumi smiles.

Kasai goes to the Nakamura ward and tells his clan to go protect Natsumi. Then he tells Sasori to come along with him to go get back his son. Kasai goes to get his cloak which has his clans crest as he tries to figure out where to go. While Yawn is holding Kasais son he starts to cry and when he does the lightning aura from his body shocks Yawn causing him to drop him. Kasai closes his eyes to try and pinpoint his location and while his son is crying he senses his aura and grabs Sasori as they teleport and appear in front of Yawn. Kasai looks behind him and sees his son he tries to go grab him, but Yawn makes him disappear right in front of Kasais eyes.

Kasai get angry turns around and rushes towards Yawn making Yawn snap his fingers and it makes Kasai stop in the air and he can move his body.

Yawn ” you
e fast Ill give you that, but Im gonna show you that you can be defeated. ”

Kasai still angry starts to move, and Yawn gets shocked because hes not supposed to be able to move anything. It doesn take long for Kasai to break out of the spell and when he does he kicks Yawn causing him to fly back creating great distance. Yawn gets up smiling as he takes of his shirt, cracks his neck and gets in his fighting stance. Kasai tells Sasori to take his son and go back to the village. Sasori picks up the child and tries to run, but hes stopped. He starts backing up because a half demon is in front of him. Totsuki makes his first appearance as the man who is half demon , half human. Sasori is completely frozen and can move because hes in fear. All he can feel is the aura from Totsuki , and he starts shaking.

Totsuki ” it seems you have realized the ultimate power , what I am is unrivaled by anyone. ”

Even Kasai is shocked at the overwhelming power of Totsuki. Totsuki walks right over to Sasori and takes the baby, when he does Sasori just falls to his knees.

Kasai ” Sasori get up , its not over we have to fight, we have to get my son back. Please I need you! ”

Sasori ” Im sorry I can , my body won move , his power is far greater than mine I don want to fight him, Im sorry brother. ”

Kasai ” ELDER BROTHER GET UP… RIGHT NOW! ”

Yawn ” you
e fighting me , don ignore me Im not one to be trifled with!

He captures Kasai in the spell again making him completely immobile. Then Totsuki picks up Sasori , smiles then throws him against a tree calling him a worthless excuse for a Nakamura.

Totsuki ” is this it? Is this the great power of the Nakamuras? All that fear of this mighty clan just for it to be a joke. When Im done taking the power from this boy I will kill every last Nakamura starting with your precious Natsumi. ”

When he says this it triggers something in Kasai that makes him angry with lightning aura surrounding his body and his eyes turn blue , glowing as he breaks out of Yawns spell with ease.

Kasai takes one step then vanishes. Totsuki gets surprised then sees Kasai holding his child.

Totsuki ”How? How did you take him back from me? ”

Kasai goes to Sasori picks him up , hands him his child and tells him to get out of here. Sasori grabs the child and starts to leave.

Totsuki gets mad and charges towards Sasori , but hes stopped by Kasai who grabbed his hand headbutts him then kicks him away.

Kasai ” Go! Now! ”

Sasori shakes his head then starts to run away. Totsuki gets up and is angry, while Yawn is just watching In fear. Totsuki yells at Yawn to come and help.

Kasai ” whats wrong ? I thought you said us Nakamuras are weak and worthless, why do you look frightened? ”

Totsuki ”Im not afraid , I am the ultimate being of this world , everyone is below me and I will not lose to you! ”

Totsuki charges towards Kasai throwing an array of attacks and combos , but they all miss , Kasai is too fast.

Kasai ” Im going to give you a chance to leave, this power I have , I can control it and if you push me I might end up killing you. ”

Yawn backs up slowly in fear, but Totsuki grabs him and throws him towards Kasai. Kasai vanishes and ends up behind Totsuki uses his lightning drill piercing through Totsukis body making him cough up blood then falling to his knees. Kasai looks at him and Totsuki is presumed dead. Then he walks over to Yawn looks at him and tells him to leave.

Yawn starts to run away , but Kasai says wait , ” if you ever think about hurting my family , my clan , or even my village you will be killed. ”

Yawn leaves. Kasai loses the Aura and just stares at Totsukis body before he teleports away. Meanwhile Sasori is still running, but for a split second Sasoris body gets covered in darkness as it directly goes into his wounds and he doesn notice. Kasai teleports in front of him , smiles and teleports them all back to the village. When they get back Kasai hugs Sasori thanking him. Sasori pushes Kasai off saying , ” no problem , but you don have to hug me. ”

Kasai ” sometimes I never know whats gonna happen, for all I know this could be my last time seeing you. So I just felt the need to show affection. ”

Sasori ” Hmmmm ”

As he walks away , making Kasai drop his head. He looks at his child , smiles , looks into the sky and then it clears up and becomes a sunny day again. He goes to see Natsumi whos crying tears of joy that the child is safe , as she grabs him , hugs him and just keeps crying.

Natsumi ” I think its about time we name him don you think? ”

Kasai ” yeah , but what? ”

Natsumi ” how about Ziku. ” She says smiling and blushing.

Kasai ” you.. you want to name him after my brother? ” He says tearing up.

Natsumi ” yes, I know how much you loved him and how much you miss him so I thought about giving him that name ever since I first knew I was pregnant. ”

Kasai ; crying , ” its perfect. Thank you. ”

As they both just smile at each other then lean in to hug each other.
