Chapter One: Alone
Drip... Drip... Drip...
"Why?... Why did you?... Why did you have to die?... I'm all alone now... All... Alone... Because someone thought... It would be nice... To kill you... They thought... It would be fun... To kill a child... She was... She wasn't even... thirteen yet... Just a... Genin... Oh Amaya... Why? WHY?" I sobbed, my body shaking as I held my eleven year old sister's body, covered in blood.
I am hollow.
My only remaining family member is gone. My mother, who would always hug me and my sister when we were sad, or angry. The mother that would hold us when we cried, who sang us to sleep when we were little, who would always greet us with a smile and her husband with a blush. The mother that was raising us into fine young women. My father, a powerful ninja that wasn't always there, but a man who's big heart would always make up for the lack of presence when he was home. He was the one that hugged us when we had a bad dream, and protected us from the nighttime monsters in every child's room, who held us when we were scared, and smiled in the worst situation. A man who's heart would always love our village, the people in it, and most of all, his family.
Finally, there was Amaya. My dear little sister, who could brighten anyone's day with just a smile. Who would always rush to open the door, who would always greet me at the gates when I came home from a mission, whether it was raining, snowing, or just a regular bright day... My dear little Amaya, who's life was taken at the age of eleven because she wanted me to live. She wanted a demon like me to stay alive. But there would always be one question that would plague my mind for all eternity.
Why did she have to die?
My cloudy white eyes raised up to the crying sky. My mouth opened, letting loose an inhuman screech of pain, anger, sadness. A screech that would pierce the souls of any warrior, civilian, and even demon, no matter how far into the heavens it was aimed to reach, no matter how deep into the Shinigami's being it wanted to cut, no matter how little people my cry would reach. It showed how deep my pain was, how cracked my shattered heart was, how big the hollow hole my heart was. If you listened hard enough, you might even be able to hear the demon within me, crying with me. Crying with sadness, no matter how strange it may have been for a demon made of energy to do so.
Imagine, a demon crying over the loss of such a young human, sobbing, hunched over... pitiful. All because it lost one little thing that it was used to. I would almost feel bad for the poor thing if I wasn't the demon.
Suddenly, as if the world was sensing my thoughts, my mind went blank, and my world went black.

Why is my back wet? Where am I? I asked myself, my cloudy azure blue eyes slowly fluttering open. I heard a deep, rumbling voice chuckle. "How do you not know where you are? Have you never seen the deep, dark crevices of your mind? Have you never been to the very stupid cave that holds your inner demon?" It asked, hate and malice lining every pitch and every dip of his voice.
"N-no. There was never a reason to," I replied quietly. "Where am I?" I questioned curiously, causing the voice to chuckle. "Have you not figured it out already? You're in your mind, talking to the very demon that everyone hates so much..."
My eyes widened in realization as my brain processed what the voice was saying. Yet his next words were spoken strongly, mixed with emotions such as hate, malice, or any other negative emotion you could think of.
"I am Kyuubi no Kitsune."

Hey guys! I hope you liked it! My inspiration goes to the song from Naruto called 'Man of the World'. I swear, every single time I listen to those sad songs from Naruto, I cry. Whoever wrote them is really,really good!
