Dear Diary
Chapter 1
Dear Diary
I was often found daydreaming in class. Nobody knew what happened the night when Itachi snapped, except myself. I saw his crime replayed before my eyes, and I see that same scene each time I close my eyes. I can still smell the blood, and still see the blood on the walls, despite the gallons of bleach and layers of paint. He killed every living thing, including my pet fish named Cow. Everybody, except me.
I would daydream about how my life would be. And each time, I see my mother smiling as I walked in the door after school every day. I can see my father beaming at me as I ace all my exams, come out of the ninja academy at the top of the class, and as I show off my chidori and defeat Gaara of the Sand. I can see myself smiling. I see myself taking Sakura out on a date. I see all these happy things that will never happen.
It's his entire fault. On that wretched night, my future turned to dust, and with it's passing came the slaughter of my family.
Only when I enact my revenge, will I be able to pick up the pieces and be able to start my life over. And hopefully pluck up the courage to ask Sakura out.
