It was well into the night and some men were cornering a silver teen
"What do you have to say for yourself" said an angry man as he advance
"Just leave me alone" said mini Kakashi quietly
"After he beat you up or kill you or worse" said another man
"You're a disgrace Hatake" another spat "and I don't know why Hokage sama lets you run off as a ninja"
"There is no way anything good will become of a Hatake allowed to be a ninja"
Kakashi didn't answer and just stared indifferently at them
"You have nothing to say?" one of them yelled
"I have nothing to say to the likes of you" Kakashi said calmly "Let me pass"
"Trying to act all tough won't work here"
Kakashi sighed "Anything else you would like to say" he said "I have a mission tomorrow and would like to get some rest before I go"
"He's assigning you missions as well" one said in disbelief "Can't believe he trusts your family after what your father did"
"I am not my father" Kakashi said showing no hint of emotion "I may look like him but I am not"
"The apple doesn't fall far from the tree boy"
"You will end up betraying us like your old man"
"You even wield his sword" one said "The only way to keep our village safe is to destroy you"
"Seven against one" Kakashi said "Cowards"
"You're just afraid"
"Let me pass" Kakashi said again
"We won't let you"
Soon many of the other villagers gathered up against Kakashi
"so many against one kid" Kakashi mocked "No wonder Konoha is losing the war"
"Why you insolent little brat" one hollered
"You're all talk" Kakashi said "At least I help the village and what do you do? Pray that a miracle will happen? Stay at home afraid of raids?"
"That's it" one man said as he took out a knife. Kakashi took out a kunai and stared at him in the eyes.
Kakashi eyes held nothing but HATERED. "I will not kill you but by the time I'm done you were going to wish you were dead" Kakashi said with malice.
"Why do you even live on when you know everybody hates you and nobody will ever care about you if you die in war. What with no family nor friends what do you live for?"
"I will not tolerate this anymore" the third said. Apparently he was watching for some time. Who knew?
"Hokage sama" they turned to him in fear and guilty "I will assure you this won't happen again"
After a while the Hokage nodded "You may all go except for Kakashi"
Kakashi sighed but remained where he stood.
After they all left , Hokage engaged Kakashi
"Put your kunai away Kakashi" Hokage addressed him
Kakashi did as he was told.
"I'll make you wish you were dead huh?" the Hokage eyed Kakashi suspiciously
"I had a rough day" Kakashi retorted
"You can't attack civilians"
"It was all in self defense" Kakashi argued
"Keep your anger in check" the Hokage said sternly
"What about theirs?" Kakashi accused
"Kakashi keep your anger in check" he said again
"May I go now?" Kakashi asked politely
"Sure I'll even take you home SAFE and sound" Minato said stressing on safe
"No thanks I can manage"
He began to make his exit but Minato stopped him.
"Get some rest" he said "We have a long mission ahead of us"
"Hnnn" was Kakashi's only replay as he slouched into the darkness
"Take care of that one Minato" the Hokage said as he began to make his exit as well "He'll become a great shinobi even more so than now"
"Talk about no pressure huh?" Minato smiled at Asuma "Kakashi's a bigger handful that people expect"
