Title: Life
By: Irukapooka
Summary:After a wish, the 4th Hokage comes back to life...and things in Konohagakure are not what he expects. How will his wife act when she finds out he is back and what is his son like now?
Rating: PG-13, only to be safe. As usual for me, no swearing, citrus, oranything sexual. There maybe a little violence but nothing like heads flying off and guts spilling out all over.
Disclaimer: Don't own Naruto or anything else, except for OC characters and this little story poem thingy.
Prologue
Trying to find you...where are you?
In the light, in the dark
What is keeping you?
It is so hard to see...
Will you ever find the light with me?
I'm hoping you will do so
I'm always hoping...
That voice...it has been haunting my thoughts for awhile now. So much that I have not been able to get some sleep. How I desperately needed sleep. But, for the past 5 years I have not even had a wink of sleep. People say they usually don't know why they can't sleep. But, I know...yes, I know the reason. I've been dead for the past 5 years.
Most people believe that death is the most bliss and peaceful sleep you'll ever get. But, not me. No. Never.
When I was alive, people looked up to me and asked for my advice, my council. And I would do the best I could. I bet you are now asking why I've been at unrest then if everyone respected me. I will tell you why. It was because of them.
My wife and my son.
No, they haven't done anything wrong. It's guilt for them. Because of my death, I have not been able to fill in my duty. My wife, my poor wife. She knew that because of my position, many sacrifices had to be made, and yet, she was still there for me by my side.
Her dark brown hair that reached past her waist, her green, sparkling eyes that glistened whenever they saw me...how I missed her. She was like an angel, sent down from heaven and into my arms.
Then there's my son. The last time I've seen him was when he was only a few days old. I can still picture his face. His light blonde spiky hair covered his little head and his light blue eyes made him look like the spitting image of me. I was happy. I wonder what he still looks like now. I wonder if he knows what's inside of him yet.
I was the one that sealed the Kyuubi no Yoko inside of him. I sealed it inside my own son. I wonder what he thinks of me now. Does he despise me for what I have put into him? Or, does he understand? I have doubt about the latter. I doubt that anybody understands. Was I being selfish? Maybe so, but I loved him. And that's the reason, I wanted him to become powerful. Powerful enough to surpass me and become the fifth Hokage.
Would people accept him for what he is? Or will they denounce him when they find out what is inside him?
It's impossible to make everyone happy.
How I wish I was back and not here.
But, will the villagers of Konohagakure accept Yondaime coming back to their village again?
No, this is not a one shot. And I know it's really short, but this is the prologue. The chapters will get longer.
