What chapter is this? Wow, not even that far in the story and already lost count. Well…I think this is three? Maybe??? Yeah just checked this is the third. Also, check out my other story. I already finished two more chapters, but I still need to upload them. So please check that out and enjoy the story. It explains a little more about her personality.
I watched them all leave. "Emi Etsuko. The demonic angel. What a horrible burden she must have on her shoulders." I said to myself. "I wonder if she knows of Miyako?" No, probably not. Her family was always so secretive. Her parents definitely would never let the cat out of the bag.
Her parents. They were very kind people. They are always looking out for everyone in the village and always willing to lend a helping hand. I wonder why Emi is so depressed and moody. I mean I know she has a tough burden and all and doesn't get along well with others, but it seems like there's something more.
I shrugged it off. Probably a case of early teenage syndrome. (Oh, just in case you didn't notice, This is Kakashi speaking.)
As the door creaked open, my pupils in my fiery red eyes adjusted to the darkness. I let out a hopeful sigh. Maybe I would be lucky and they wouldn't be home. But my luck showed through, as I was suddenly roughly pushed against the gray wall. IT was my mother staring me back. Her yellow eyes stared back at me with malice.
"I have felt happy for the whole day. Good work, Rin." Rin. Meaning cold one, which she wanted me to be for her happiness.
"But, just about a half an hour ago, I strangely felt extremely happy, like a high moment. What happened, darling?" She emphasized the word darling when she spoke it. She was mocking me. Giving me fake sympathy.
I darted my eyes away from hers. "Nothing."
"Don't look in her eyes," I thought to myself. "Don't look at them!" I busied my eyes to look at a corner, a dusty, cobweb infested one as a matter of fact.
She grabbed a hold of my chin and thrust my head toward hers. My eyes darted for a second and met her gaze for only a second. But a second was all she needed.
"Now, what upset you?" I tried biting my lip, but at no success.
"Someone." I tried to force myself to lie, but my eyes did not allow it. "Someone called me a freak. They said I wasn't human."
"Who, Rin?" Dmn her kekei genkai.
"Haruno Sakura." My mother looked at me with a triumphant smirk.
"Ah, I see she is one of your teammates. Who is the other?"
"Uzumaki Naruto."
"Two freaks not even worth air on one team? I'm sure your sensei is thrilled." She laughed wickedly as my heart began to ache at her words and my eyes widened. I thought back to the looks he gave me. Did he? Did he think the way my mother did?
Sudden realization came at me like a smack in the face. I didn't tell her about Sasuke! Don't tell her, don't tell her!
The words came out before I could stop them.
"And…"
"And?" my mother repeated quizzically, urging me to continue my mistake.
"Sasuke. Uchiha Sasuke." Her eyes still held a grip on mine.
"Isn't this lovely! The last Uchiha! After what I had you do , I bet he truly hates you. And that night, my threat still came to life, his brother had the same idea I did!
As she continued to cackle, my heart twisted. I hated what I was forced to do to him. I knew I deserved the looks he gave me. The malice he had for me. I hated who he had become, though. Arrogant, cocky, and stuck up. I knew that he was probably dying inside. Maybe it would have been different…
The next thing I knew, I was lying face down on the floor. My head was throbbing and blood was coming from my lip.
"Listen to me, brat! You had best go up to your room before your father gets up. He isn't feeling well and doesn't need to be bothered by the likes of you. You need to keep up the work, too. If I start feeling the least bit sad, you'll get much more than a punch in your jaw. Now clean up the mess you made."
Of course, 'my mess' was the blood coming from my lip. I don't know what made me say what I said next, because it definitely wasn't smart, but I guess it was just a bit of me who really wanted to talk back. "Which would you rather me do first? Go up stairs or clean it up? Sorry to inform you, but I can't be in two places at once." I smirked. Hoping she wouldn't hear me but just letting out the bottled heat, I muttered, "And I thought you were actually smart. My mistake."
That received a blow to my stomach. As I dropped to the floor, she said, "Just go to your room, your worthless piece of skum. You best be happy we keep you around. But of course, just remember that it's only because of your powers."
I walked up the stairs, holding my stomach.
"Oh, and one more thing."
I paused on the stairs.
"You best be the best person on your team. If you're not, well…" she chuckled, "a punch to the gut isn't what you should be worrying about."
I continued my trip up to my room. Once I reached my room, I gently closed the door and locked it. I slowly laid myself down on my bed. As soon as I laid down, the tears came. My heart ached worse than it had in a long time. Mixed emotions, terrible memories of the past, haunting questions. I don't know if I would ever get through this pain. Sometimes I asked myself, "Is it even worth getting through?"
Wow. So…….hopefully you can kind of see why she is so mean. More questions! But don't worry, they will get answered! *insert cheesy smile* Please comment and give me constructive criticism if you have any, (once again, CONSTRUCTIVE!!!) or, if you would like, just tell me your input in the story. Tell me your predictions, if I'm making any characters a little too……..not them (later in the series) and anything else you can think of. Please and thanks!!
