-1Chapter 2: The Hatake Clans Hidden Power - Kakashi's POV

I was going to wait for 5 reviews but I really couldn't be bothered so here's the next chapter. Enjoy.

Still don't own Naruto.

FLASHBACK-

I made my way through the trees trying to get away from my attacker. Usually when faced with an enemy ninja I always stood my ground and never ran away unless the mission required me to do so, but this time I had come across an enemy I knew I could not defeat.

The mission itself had been a success and I was about to begin the journey home when I felt a shiver run down my spine.

"Who's there?", I shouted not really expecting an answer.

So you can imagine my surprise when someone stepped out from the shadows and said in a voice that chilled me to the very core of my existence,

"My, my, if it isn't the great sharingan Kakashi. I must say it has been such a long time since we last met and I have to admit I'm a little hurt that you don't remember me"

"Well I'm guessing you're someone quite strong if I went up against you and you managed to live", I said with just a hint of confidence.

"Wait, let me rephrase what I said. We haven't actually met but you really should recognise my face, after all I'm just as famous as you and ten times more deadly", the man said his eyes glowing with the intent to kill.

I automatically got into a fighting stance readying myself for the worst case scenario.

"I'll only ask you this one last time. Who are you?"

"I'll tell you, but first you need to know that as soon as I tell you my name I will-quite unfortunately-have to kill you. But before I do that why don't you take a closer look at me and see if you can guess who I am first"

"What's the point. You say you're going to kill me what does it matter if I guess who you are?", I said with my ever present bored tone.

"JUST GUESS!!", the man spat and as he said these words I felt the earth tremble a little beneath my feet.

I looked over the man closely for about two minutes and after a while I began to see a resemblance to someone I knew. Very well in fact.

"You…you look a little…I mean quite a lot like…well like me"

And indeed he did. As I looked him over I saw the same messy silver hair, only his was longer. The same eyes and the same facial structure even though his wasn't covered by a mask.

"That's right Kakashi Hatake I am none other than Garet Hatake. But I'm not here for a family reunion, far from it actually. I'm here to fulfil my mission, because you see I'm a member of the Akaksuki and I'm here to assassinate the assassin"

Garet attacked me before I had a chance to process the words he had just spoken and the kunai that he had thrown would have taken out my right eye if I hadn't ducked at the last possible second.

"Come now Kakashi, I thought going up against you would be a challenge but if you're not going to at least pretend that you're worthy of your title then I guess I have no reason to draw this fight out any longer", he smirked at me, revealing dazzling white, fang like teeth.

He lunged at me this time but as I prepared my counter attack I realised that this was a shadow clone.

'What? How did I not notice this before? My sharingan has been active the whole time, I thought to myself as the shadow clone disappeared.

I quickly studied my surroundings trying to determine where the real one was.

After searching for him for what seemed like hours but was probably only minutes I realised that he had probably never been here in the first place and sent his clone here to study my techniques.

In a move that I realised was incredibly stupid and unlike me I actually let down my guard for a minute and lowered my headband over my sharingan eye.

Little did I know that in about five minutes I would regret that move for the rest of my life.

The attack came quickly and had great power behind it. So much so in fact that it sent me flying a couple of yards.

I looked towards the source of the power and saw the man that I had talked to before, the one who claimed to be "Garet Hatake".

I automatically revealed my sharingan and what I saw shocked me beyond belief.

I saw a man standing before me glowing with electric chakra and not just any chakra but my chakra. It was exactly the same type of chakra that I produce when I use my chidori. But this chidori wasn't like mine, not only did he seem to have ten times more chakra than Naruto he also had mastered the chidori in such a way that his lightning chakra surrounded his whole body and not just his hand causing the ground beneath him to crack and tremble with every step he took towards me.

Upon seeing this every nerve in my body froze and trembled and after a couple of seconds I realised I was scared.

I hadn't been scared in years as I was always trained from an early age that a true shinobi should never show their emotions, but in the presence of this man all my training seemed to fly out the window.

This was because the man standing in front of me with the gravity defying silver hair and the bored expression looked so much like my father that I knew right away that if I stayed and tried to fight I would come face to face with power that rivalled the "white fangs", and I knew in an instant that I would lose. So I ran.

And I'm still running, And even now I can feel the static of his chakra making my hair stand on end.

"Kakashi, what's the use in running when you know full well that I'll catch you any way. Don't tell me that it was my pathetic brother that taught you to run away from a fight?"

His words rang cold in my ears and I stopped running and turned to face Garet, no longer afraid.

"That's right Kakashi, Sakumo Hatake was my brother. So I guess that makes you my nephew. But you see I don't like that, I would prefer if I was the only Hatake left as I don't like sharing blood with someone who's not worth the Hatake name", Garet said, as he walked closer to me still covered in his electric chakra.

"What do you mean I'm not worthy? I've had to fight and struggle my whole life to become this strong, so no one-not even my so called "uncle"-can tell me that I'm not strong enough". I glared at Garet hatred and the over whelming desire to kill taking over where fear had once been.

"You misheard me Kakashi. I never said you weren't strong enough I said you weren't worthy of having Hatake blood, and do you know why I said this?"

When I gave no answer he shrugged and carried on anyway.

"You're not worthy because you cannot tap into the full strength of the Hatake Kekei- Genkai, you may of mastered the Uchiha's blood line limit but you will never be able to master your own as long as you remain weak"

"But that makes no sense the Hatake clan has never had a blood line limit…has it?"

"O, don't be so naïve. What do you think you're looking at right now. You probably never knew this because my pathetic brother killed himself before he showed you that the Hatake clan can manipulate energy, namely lightning energy"

"So, your saying that my chidori was formed because of my blood line limit?". At this point I was really just trying to buy more time so I could think of the best way to plan an effective attack on him.

"Yes ad no. Your weak little chidori is a very tiny product of what the Hatake power can produce. My power on the other hand is far more advanced, for you see when mastered properly our blood line is even stronger than the Uchiha's".

And in a blink of an eye he was right in front of me. It was so fast that my sharingan didn't even notice it and I knew at that point that my sharingan would be useless against Garet.

I could feel his power emanating from him in waves and the force of it alone was enough to make me feel weaker.

"You know what? Since your family I won't use the full power of the jutsu and kill you instantly like all my other victims. No, I think I'll allow you to live…but barely. You see, I want to fight you at your best and right now you're too weak, but before I leave I at least want you to hear the name of the Hatake clans hidden jutsu". He smiled a smile that was devoid of all humour and closed his eyes.

And suddenly the ground beneath me shook began to shake so violently that it began to beak apart, the clear blue sky over head suddenly clouded over and the first signs of lightning began to appear.

The last thing I saw was Garet performing some complicated hand signs before every thing went black.

The last thing I heard was Garet shouting "apocalypse no jutsu", before all the sounds were erased from my mind.
