A/N: Ok everyone; this is basically a tribute to all the Jinchuuriki, for all the pain they're made to suffer. The Jinchuuriki we're concerned about here is Uzumaki Naruto, host of the Kyuubi. It's just a short one-shot, by the way.
BROKEN
"What have I become?" He stares at himself in the mirror, and traces the whiskers on his cheeks.
"My eyes are red? It happened again?" He slams his fist on the mirror. Shards of glass clatter to the room floor.
He sees himself in a broken shard, broken by his anger, his misery, his PAIN.
No, it's not him. It's Kyuubi.
The nine tails stares up at him.
"Live for revenge", it says, "Live for only yourself. This village is filth. There is no use for love. It is but a worthless emotion. It makes you weak."
"No!" he screams, and the vision dissipates.
He runs outside, away from that temptation, away from that horrible memory.
He falls on the side of the street. He's injured. He bleeds, fresh blood spilling on this hated village.
"Does anyone care?"
They walk by him with scorn on their face, some run, screaming.
"I am the one hurt, so why are they screaming?"
He lifts his body up himself, blood spilling down his fair skin.
"This is just a wound of my body", he observes, looking down at it. "I've felt worse in my heart."
He walks on.
"Can anyone hear me?"
He watches as an age-mate boy passes by, eyes black as the darkness of night, filled with hate and sorrow, a lust for revenge.
They stop and spare a moment to glance at one another.
"He is the same as me", realises the Jinchuuriki hosting the dreaded beast. "But we are alone in this world".
He sits on a swing.
"Is there really no one?"
He watches as the others play, leaving him to his bitterness.
"No one?" He thinks, watching as a girl passes by, her pink hair left open blowing back in the wind.
He rises from the swing.
"Its him!", one screams. "The monster!" They run, as though their lives depended on it.
"Kill them!" whispers the creature in his head. "They despise you!"
No! The boy shouts back, running out into the heartland of the village, as the sun begins to set in the western sky. "I will be strong."
"But..."
"Why me?" He whispers, as the sadness flows down his cheeks.
"Why me!" he says, as the tears drop to the ground.
"Live for only yourself. Love is but a worthless emotion."
"WHY ME?" He screams, as his eyes burn like fire, nine tails flashing behind him in the setting sun.
"Kill them!"
"What is this feeling?" What have I become?"
"Am I a monster?"
