CHAPTER I

"FRAGMENTS OF THE PAST I"

What's behind the story of Kakashi's technique "CHIDORI"? Do you know where its name came from? Well this is my version of its story….

It's a gloomy afternoon where the sun is setting, 6yrs.old Kakashi is finally taking his way home now that he already finished his training. He usually passes by open backyard not so near to their house, there he heard someone crying… He stepped carefully to see who it was…

As he peeked into the wooden wall he saw a girl sitting on a swing tied on the tree crying in pain… he walked closer so he could see what happened to her. As he walks closer to her, the girl's sobs is getting louder to his ears…

Kakashi: What happened to you?

(The girl looked up to him)

Girl: (sniffed) my knee hurts and I can't go home because of it my mother would

be worried about me…

Kakashi: is that so… may I take a look at it?

(The girl nodded)

Girl: but be careful…

(Kakashi kneeled down to see0

Kakashi: it's just a scratch but if it really hurt I'll carry you at my back so you could go home…

(Kakashi turned his back)

Kakashi: here… just tell me where you live and I'll take you there

Girl: ok thank you very much mister stranger

Kakashi started walking. At first the two were silent, quiet but then the little girl started talking…

Girl: onichan why do you have a mask on your face? Do you have a bad breath?

Kakashi: I just liked it this way that's all…

Girl: really? Well that's not enough reason for me…

Kakashi: why not!

Girl: because it's ugly it hides the half of your face and also I think it's weird

Kakashi: why do you think it's weird?

Girl: it's weird because there's no reason to hide such face you should be proud to show it! (She shouted and threw her hands up in the air) woah! woah!

Kakashi: Hey! Hey! Be careful you might fall

(She held him round his neck that turned out choking him to death)

Girl: you look pale

Kakashi: yeah I know… and you know what you almost killed me

Girl: sorry…

Kakashi: let's just forget about it ok! Now where do we go?

Girl: turn left at the next corner

Kakashi: alright! By the way where did you get the scratch on your knee?

Girl: one of my classmates teases me everyday and today he dressed himself like a ghost and I got scared so I ran off and end up hurting myself

Kakashi: is that so… well then next time careful...

Girl: yes sir!

Kakashi: …..

Girl: by the way sir what's your name?

Kakashi: Hatake Kakashi

Girl: and how old are you?

Kakashi: I'm six yrs old…

Girl: and your birthday?

Kakashi: what is this some kind of a joke?

Girl: just answer my question mister

Kakashi: I was born on September 15th

Girl: ok that's all

(and jumped off his back)

Kakashi: that's it? Hey you're alright now…

Girl: yeah thanks for your help and I'll stop asking questions because I'm already at the front of our house, right there you see…

(She pointed at the right and Kakashi turned his head to look)

Kakashi: so this is your place

Girl: yup! Would you like to go in first?

Kakashi: no thanks I'm also in a hurry to go home myself

Girl: is that so… well I wish we could meet again Kakashi-kun…

Kakashi: well then see you next time

Girl: buh-bye! Bye-bye

(Kakashi ran off… still he saw her waving her hands and later on got herself inside her house)

As he runs towards home Kakashi suddenly looked up…its getting late I should move faster… and something came up on his mind the little girl that he just met. I think she's cute. Then he remembered… I didn't even catch her name. oh well…
