Forest of Death
Anko sat on the giant scroll, kanji littered her body, her curse mark still dormant, the kunoichi trembled as she was shirtless, just wearing her black bra, and the wind kissed her skin.
"Get it done already. " She kisses.
"Patience love," Taiju said, writing formulas ok the seal. Ino stood behind him, her hand placed on the back of his head.
Yugao stood a few feet behind them, holding a heaven's scroll in case of failure.
"Since when did you become a fuinjutsu master?" Yugao asks.
"I wouldn't say a master...just a growing scholar. " Taiju chuckled.
"That is not assuring!" Anko growls.
"Hold still~"
"SHUT IT!" She snaps at him.
Taiju ignores her, writing down his formula to destroy the curse mark." This seal is really complex; not only does it have the stimulation of the chakra to manifest negative energy, but it's also infused with Orochimaru's soul. This is like a parasite, living in its host, feeding off their negative emotions to expand Orochimaru's life source in the host, it gives power in exchange for multiplying life span...." Taiju theorised. " A parasitic relationship disguised as mutualism."
"How do we break it?" Ino ponders.
Taiju laughs, "That's the fun part, we can't simply break it–we need to transfer the parasite to a new host." He gestured to himself.
"WHAT!?"
"ARE YOU MAD?"
"Taiju..." Yugao whispers.
Taiju kept his stance, "Ino, when the seal starts, I need you to possess my body."
"Are you insane!?" Ino snaps, eyes brimming with tears, "You'll..."
"I trust you blondie." He winks.
"I love all of you~"
"Taiju, you–" Anko's words died out as light shone from his hand.
Cursed seal release.
Taiju chanted, the kani on his palm "extract"
"Aaahhhh!" Anko shrieks in pain, the curse spreading across her body, glowing red as it moves from her skin to Taiju's hand.
"Shhit!" Taiju hisses as the marks diggs into his flesh, breaking through every layer of his skin, Taiju clenching his teeth, bares the pain.
Anko's cries decreased as her eyes rolled to the back of her head, the 3 tamoe blinking red before vanishing, leaving pale skin behind.
Thud.
Her body fell, face-first to the ground.
"Ino now!" Taiju barks out, body covered in the curse mark, he looks at her with bloodshot eyes."Do it before it settles." He pleads.
Ino whimpers, steeling her eyes, she breathes out.
" Mind Body possession jutsu."
She slumped to the ground, her astral form travels to Taiju, invading his body.
Ding.
Ino enters his body, entering a dark place with swirling water reaching her ankles, she looks around the place. Glowing eyes watching her.
"Is this Taiju's mind?" She mutters.
"Quite an eerie place, isn't it?" A voice chuckled, making her tense. She turned to face Orochimaru in spiritual form, a massive dark snake-man silhouette. Piercing white eyes and sharp teeth."What's the matter...you scared? Kuku." The manifestation of his soul laughs. Slithering to Ino.
Ino froze, body refusing movement.
"T–Taiju..." She stutters.
Orochimaru nears her mouth, opening it, showing the abyss in his mouth, long tongue tasting the air in anticipation of his soul. "Two souls at the cost of one~"
Ino looks into Orochimaru's eyes, her body no longer responding to her thoughts.
'I can't die. Not right now–I'm too young!' She rambles in her head. Spirit flaring due to the disturbance, unable to kick herself out of his mind.
"I trust you." Taiju's voice echoed across his mind space, the watching eyes disappearing, Ino feels less tense.
"Go." A phantom hand nudges her forward.
Ino feels her body hit by a vibrant blue energy, engulfing her form, and she shines with azure blue.
"What is this?" Orochimaru halted his movement.
Ino's azure form raises its hand, light building in its palm.
"Leave now." A blast of mass blue waves hit the spirit of Orochimaru.
"AAAAHHHH!" The Sanin yells, spirit blazing.
Taiju's mind space was painted in bright blue energy. Ino's astral form ceased its glow.
Ding.
Ino inhales, returning to consciousness, looking around, she sees Taiju's body being cradled by Yugao.
"TAIJU!" Ino runs to him.
Anko resting by a tree, felt serenity, no pain, no cackles at all. "H-His gone...thank you." She stares into the sky.
Yugao moves her hair from Taiju's face, skin ghostly pale, breathing very faintly. " Aiju, please...stay with me." Yugao pleads, tears flowing down her face. Ino reached him, green chakra glowing, and she started healing him.
"Don't you dare die on me!" Ino howls, focusing on healing him. His skin is growing with life, and breathing is regulated.
Taiju opens his eyes, "Nice work blondie." He praises her through short breaths.

[Kurenai's apartment]
Not long after the chat about the civil war, Tayuya suddenly thrashed around, screaming in pain. Kurenai tried to help as the second Tayuya's curse marks expanded; they stepped back.
"Tayu..." Kin calls,senbon in hand, hesitation evident.
Tenten and Hinata stand ready to strike.
Tayuya kept thrashing, body switching from first and second curse mark form.
"What do we do?" Hinata asks, byakugan activated, noticing the violent chakra in her body. Her chakras gone wild." Hinata announces.
Kurenai places her hand in a sealing sign, "Hold her–"
Her train of thought broke as Tayuya suddenly stopped moving, curse mark receding, the three tamoe flaring and dimming down, and vanished from her skin.
"Oh–f*ck." Tayuya falls, and Kurenai moves, holding her before she falls to the kitchen floor.
"Hinata, go get Ino!" Kurenai ordered.
The Hyuga moves, running out the door.
"Tenten help me put her down."
Tenten moves to Kurenai's side, helping her rest Tayuya on the couch.
The curse mark eliminated from it's host, Orochimaru's soul vanquish to limbo.
