Hello everyone! I haven't disappeared off the face of the planet and i hope the readers who read You're Gonna Go Far Kid read this one as well. The first three or four chapter will pretty much be the same, although i've edit some of them to fit better for the new chapters. Now. Miyuki is still the character, i've grown quite attached to her, and you won't notcie the largers changes until later on. I was reading the last version and even i was getting confused. and the number one rule of writing (well for me anyway) is if the author can't understand it, then something needs to be changed. plus as i was thinking of the plot and characters of Diary of Jane, things weren't running together from You're Gonna Go Far Kid and Diary of Jane, so i figured that i'd start from the beginning since now things are all straghten out.
So, with out Further a due, You're Gonna Go Far Kid 2.0
Disclaimer: I own nothing of Naruto or it's world, I only own Miyuki Ryu and ask kindly that no one use her without my permission first. Thank you.
Kakashi Hatake was only 7. He wore a mask to cover the lower part of his face, and his hair was white and spiked to the left, and his dark eyes constantly stayed half open, as if he was bored or tired. Next to him, was his father, Sakumo Hatake. Kakashi looked a lot like his father and he was proud, because his father was known greatly, and was known as the White Fang of Konoha. As he walked towards the gate he looked up to his dad, "Where are we going?"
Sakumo smiled, "To meet my dear old friend, and his daughter. She's going to be staying with us."
"Is that why you asked me to clean that room?" He said.
"Yes." Sakumo chuckled, "She's about a year younger than you, so you'll have to help teach her a few things, like targets and all."
"She's going to be a ninja? Why can't she be a ninja in her village?"
Sakumo gave a slight frown, "Her village is much different from ours, Kakashi, remember that."
"Yes father." He said deciding to be quiet since they were coming up to the gate.
In a distance he could see two people, one tall and one short, and coming closer he saw that the tall one was a man. He had silver chin length hair and red eyes, he had a gray shirt and blue pants on along with traditional sandals.
The man smiled, "Ah my old friend, it's been too long since our last met."
Sakumo smiled as well, giving a pat on the mans shoulder, "Too long it has, this is my son, Kakashi."
Yet Kakashi wasn't paying attention, he saw the other person, a girl a year younger than him, clinging to the man's leg, she wore a long sleeved shirt that came to her knees and black pants with sandals. Her long jet black hair was in a low ponytail and her bangs covered her bright red eyes, catching him off a bit. Although her clothes were baggy, he could tell from her face and hands that she was small and fragile, making him wonder how she could even become a ninja.
Their eyes connected for a second, but in that second, Kakashi was shocked. She looked petrified to be here, like her life was at stake, and yet, they showed determination, none that he ever saw before, determination to show she could be a ninja. He looked at the man.
"Your son looks a lot like you, Sakumo." The man, Akiro said.
"Yes, just as your daughter looks like Miyori, well, all for your eyes."
Akiro chuckled, "She gets at least one thing from her father." He then looked seriously at Sakumo, "Everything's been cleared through the Hokage right?"
"Yes, as long as she lives with me, and she'll be watched for the next two years, just incase they come for her. Don't worry Akiro, nothing will come to harm Miyuki, I promise." Sakumo said comforting his friend.
Kakashi looked at the girl, Miyuki. Strange name, but it was pretty.. He looked at Akiro, who knelt down next to Miyuki, placing his hands on the girls small shoulders, "Now listen Miyuki, you behave for Sakumo and his son, and the village. Understand? And remember, this was your choice."
Although is was the harsh truth, there was some indication of sadness in Akiro's voice, a fathers concern for his baby girl.
Miyuki heard it and she looked down trying not to cry but only nodded, then hugged her dad before he stood up and ruffled her hair, "Behave and learn the scrolls I gave you." He said before leaving.
Sakumo held his hand out, "Miyuki was it?" she turned nodding, "I'm Sakumo, and this is my son, Kakashi, we are very happy to have you live with us."
In time, Miyuki grew alongside Kakashi. Of course, Kakashi had his doubts, for one, she was small and fragile looking, two, she was timid and hesitant, and three she was a klutz sometimes. Yet over time, he saw her grow, and when she couldn't get something right, she'd do it over and over until she finally got it. She practiced her scrolls that could only be done by her clan, the Ryu's, and she even became handy with twin kodachi's. And over time, she was placed on Kakashi's team.
She was shy and timid, always hiding behind Kakashi, until she practiced with them, becoming strong and outgoing, laughing and everything. To Miyuki, this life was perfect, no worries, and happy.
Until the incident happened.
Miyuki and Kakashi raced home, "Come on Miyuki, you're suppose to be faster than me right?" Kakashi said teasing the girl.
"No fair! You got a head start though!" She yelled back to him.
"It shouldn't matter if you're the fastest girl from your village!" He said picking speed up. He lunged forward catching himself, feeling weight on his back, looking back he saw the young girl, "Hey! Miyuki! Get off my back!"
She stuck her tongue out, "I'm the fastest girl because of this silly!" She said before leaping over the boy and running to the house and into the door. She waited a bit before Kakashi caught up, "Told you I was faster!" She said walking a bit.
"You cheated." He muttered.
"All's fair in war." She said giggling, she walked into a room, "Sakumo?" She looked around, no sign of the man, she looked back to Kakashi, "Kakashi, isn't your dad suppose to be home today? I thought he had time off before his next mission."
Kakashi nodded before going to another door, "Knowing dad, he's off training," Kakashi opened the door, looking back at Miyuki, "He'll be home soon." As he looked forward he stopped breathing and moving. "Dad..." he barely said.
Miyuki looked over to him, then walked over, looking at what Kakashi saw then started crying.
There in front of the two was Sakumo's body, and the knife stabbed into his stomach by himself.
Miyuki fell to the floor crying, not believing what was going on, and Kakashi fell too, putting an arm around her shoulder, not knowing what to do, only staring at his father's body. He stared for what seemed like forever until making himself, and Miyuki, stand up, "W-we have to go tell the Hokage!" He said before grabbing Miyuki's hand and taking off.
Miyuki's vision was still blurred from crying, her world was turned upside down, why? Why would Sakumo do something so horrible? Why would Sakumo take his own life and make them live alone? What caused Sakumo such pain that he felt the only way was to take his own life?
As they walked in, they saw not only the Third Hokage, but their sensei, Minato. Instantly Minato saw that Miyuki was crying, "Miyuki? What's wrong?" He said going over to the children, kneeling down and wiping her tears away.
"What's wrong Kakashi?" The Hokage asked.
Kakashi was hesitant, not wanting Miyuki to cry, "M-My dad... he.. He killed himself..."
Both Minato and the Hokage looked at each other, then at the children, and it was the Hokage who spoke first, "Then, I guess you want to know why?"
Kakashi nodded, and Miyuki cried a bit more before gathering herself up and holding on to Kakashi, and he put an arm around her shoulders, "Yes. We both want to know."
The Hokage nodded. "Two days ago, Sakumo was sent on a mission with others behind enemy lines, and there he made a choice, it was to continue with the mission or save his comrades and in the end.." He paused, "Sakumo went to save his comrades."
Kakashi looked down, his father had broken a law, it was forbidden to forget the mission, it was against the law to abandon the mission, why.. Why did his father do that? Instant anger went over his body and he let go of Miyuki, heading out of no where.
Miyuki looked at him as Minato went after the boy, and she turned facing the Hokage. "I-I know it's wrong to forget the mission, but I'm glad he saved them.."
"Unfortunately, I can't say that the comrades were grateful, a lot of damage came from him abandoning the mission Miyuki, we might have been able to win it here and now."
"Even the... That.. That's horrible! How can you blame a man for saving you? How can you do that to someone! That's not fair! They should have thanked him, they should have been grateful to him! He could have let them die and they do this to him? Where's the sense in that!" She yelled into the ground as tears fell to the cold floor.
The Hokage walked over to the girl, putting a hand on her shoulder, "What happened, happened Miyuki. You and Kakashi need to pick yourself up and maybe learn something from this, and continue your life."
She stilled cried but nodded, "I can still stay here right? I like living here."
"Of course Miyuki."
