Unknowing

Disclaimer: We don't own Naruto, Saiyuki, Full Metal Alchemist (angie: Roy!!), nothing…absolutely nothing…zero…zilch...nada…. big fat goose egg


Benitora doesn't know. He doesn't know that his fathers dying thought was, " Please, God, keep Beni safe. Just keep him safe. You can take me, but not my children"

He doesn't know that his little sister Bella watched her parents die. She didn't understand why they wouldn't come help her when the big scary man put his hands around her throat.

His mother heard them enter the house. She woke up her husband and handed him their little girl. Then she ran to go get her son. Just as she reached his door, something slithered past her feet. She ran back to the living room to get her husband's help. She never saw the dagger. She died praying that she would be the only one to die that day.

Beni doesn't know that.

Maybe its better that he doesn't.

Tsunadae didn't want to be a Godmother. She didn't want anything to tie her down. But, the Ramen's had done so much for her, especially after Dan's death. When she went to meet her Godson, she was glad she did. He had bright black eyes and white hair. He reminded her of Dan, and the child they could have had. But she always ran from the past and things that reminded her of it, and the little boy was no different. She left him.

The Sanin hardly ever thought of him, until five years later. Sand ANBU delivered a scroll telling of his tragedy. She thought about going to him, but didn't have the strength. She just cried.

Eight years later, she got another scroll. It said that the bright eyed boy was know an ANBU Black Ops. Jounin. Tsunadae fought with herself for five days before Shizune dragged her to him.

She secretly thinks it was the best thing she ever did. But, Beni doesn't know that. She should tell him one day.

Benitora knows nothing about his "big brother" Kakashi. He doesn't know that Kakashi visits the memorial stone everyday to remind himself of his failures. He's always late there are so many to remember.

Beni doesn't know that Sakumo Hatake committed ritual suicide. He doesn't know that it was Kakashi that found the body. Before Sakumo ended it all, people vandalized their house, wrote cruel thing on the walls. Kakashi was hated because of his father's mistake. People told him that his father did a good thing when he killed himself. Kakashi couldn't see how taking your own life was a good thing. He still can't. Beni doesn't know any of this.

Benitora doesn't know where Kakashi's sharingan eye came from. He doesn't know that it was his best friend's dying gift. He died because of Kakashi's failure. Obito's last words were " I don't hate you.". Kakashi wishes that those words had been " I hate you" . But of course he will never tell Beni.

Kakashi's worst failure was to Team 7. He couldn't keep them together. He saw so much of himself is Sasuke. He tried so hard to keep him off that path. But, he failed. Kakashi lost them all. Naruto, who he thought would never be anything, went with Jiraiyia. Sakura, whom he thought was better suited for putting on make-up, went with Tsunadae. And Sasuke, the one he failed the most, went with Orochimaru. Beni had no idea.

Beni doesn't know that Kakashi thinks about him when he visits the fallen. Beni doesn't know that Kakashi begs them all; his mother, Sakumo, Yondaime, Obito, Rin, the Third Hokage, and all the others, to help him not to fail his little brother. He begs that just this once he can protect someone.

Beni doesn't know this. Maybe he will find out one day. Maybe he won't.


Berty: (sigh) Well, that was depressing.

Beni: Gosh, I don't know a lot of things.

Berty: …

Angie: I could of told you that Beni
