Memories of That Day

Chapter 1: Help Me

"Tomorrow I'll come look for you."

"What?"

"I promise."

She sighed. "…Kabuto…"

"Trust me."

She caressed his cheek. "…I'll try. Now good bye."

"I love you Mitsuki." Tears trickled down both their faces.

She nodded and walked away.

X-X-X-X

Mitsuki walked through the forest without a single shred of humanity left. Her heart had been broken into so many pieces that she felt as if she had no soul. "K-Kabuto…" The name crossed her lips like fire. It stung just to mention his name. "I hate you!" she screamed in pain. The rain matched her mood perfectly. It was as if the heavens were weeping with her. She stumbled into the village of Konohagakure mindlessly. "…Why?" She tripped and fell down. What's the point of getting up when something will just push you back down?

"Hey, are you alright?"

That voice! Mitsuki's head shot up. "S-S-S-" Lightning cracked through the sky, revealing the dark figure. "S-Sensei! Kakashi sensei?"

Kakashi blinked. "Mitsuki! What're you doing here!"

Her lower lip quivered. "Kakashi sensei, I'm sorry. I failed you." She passed out.

"Hey Mitsuki! Stay awake! Dammit!" Kakashi picked her up. "She's out cold. I have to get her inside or she'll get sick out here." He sighed and went back to his apartment. "Mitsuki…"

"Uhn…Wh-Wha?" Mitsuki opened her eyes and blinked. "Wh-Where…?"

"Oh, you're awake!" Kakashi jumped over the back of the sofa and sat with Mitsuki. "Yo."

"What! Kakashi sensei! Where am I?"

"You're in my apartment."

"But how did I--" She froze. …Kabuto… Fresh tears glistened in her eyes. "No, no, no, no!"

"Hey, what's wrong?" He rubbed her back. "Are you okay? And what're you doing here?"

She tried to keep herself from crying. "I-I…O-Orochimaru found out…"

"What! He did!"

"Y-Yes…Kabuto he…he betrayed me. It was because of him that I was thrown into Orochimaru's jail. But because of him…I escaped…" She buried her face in his chest. "Kakashi sensei, please help me. I…I don't know what to do anymore."

He stroked her hair. "Mitsuki, it's okay, I'm here. No one's gonna hurt you or anything. I'll take care of you, okay?" He took off his vest and put it on her. "Here, wear this for now. You're all wet and I don't want you to get sick." He got up. "I'll get you some towels, okay?"

"…S-Sensei! But…But what about-"

He smiled. "Don't worry about it, okay? Everything's gonna be fine." She put her head down and nodded. "Good!"

Kabuto I loved you…I loved you so much…

I stared this sequel to "Trust Me, My Love" a while ago and I've been working on it very slowly. I just couldn't resist when I got a couple of chapters done to post them right away! I'm still working on my other fan fic "Love Thy Enemy" but I'm gonna try to do this one as well. So, here we go, the long awaited sequel to "Trust Me, My Love"!
