Chapter 8

My past

Tatsuke screamed while tears were streaming down his face. "Aaaurgh!" he screamed as he shook his head. "Mom! Dad!" he yelled as he pounded the ground. "Why, why, why!" he yelled as he repeatedly pounded the ground. "You had to kill mom and dad! Why!" he yelled at the dark figure standing over the two dead bodies. "Why!" he yelled as his Tenyo Gaisen was activated. "You will understand soon enough," the dark figure said coldly. "Traitor! Traitor to the whole clan! Traitor to me!" he screamed as he started to cry more. "I trusted you, I relied on you, I knew you!" said Tatsuke as he got up. "Graa!" he screamed as he charged at the figure. The figure disappeared and appeared behind Tatsuke. Tatsuke gasped before he was knocked off his feet. " You're right. You will never understand, little brother," said the figure as he disappeared into the darkness. "Traitor!" whispered Tatsuke harshly as he gripped his hand.

Tatsuke shot out of his slumber, heavily breathing. Tatsuke rubbed his templates and grrd. "Just like Sasuke but I was first," he thought as he jumped out of the tree, back to the tower. "Orochimaru," he thought as he walked through the door.

Aya looked into thin air thinking. "Tatsuke, what do you feel right now, anger, sadness, hatred?" she thought. "Aya?" asked Sakura. "Ye-yeah?" replied Aya. " We're starting the matches," said Sakura before she ran for the battle area. Aya frowned then ran after her.

Whiel two unknown genin were fighting Sasuke stared at Aya. Aya was depressed, sad. "You ok?" asked Sasuke. Aya turned to Sasuke then smiled a fake smile. 'I-I'm fine," she replied as she turned away to walk towards Tatsuke. " Tatsuke, can you fight?" asked Mitsuki who was already with Tatsuke. "Nothing's wrong,' said Tatsuke as his curse flashed red. "I'm going to go talk to Sasuke," said Aya. "What, wait!" yelled Tatsuke. "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing,' said Aya as she walked over to Sasuke. "Sasuke, I need to talk to you after my fight," she said seriously. "Alright," said Sasuke suspiciously. "Aya Harushima and Yumi Tamaki,' said the board. Aya jumped down instead of walking and stood strait. " Begin!" yelled the beginner. Yumi pelted towards the calm Aya and was about to punch her, but Aya quickly took out her fans and pushed off the ground with them. Aya threw the fans. Yumi dodged one but was hit with the other. Aya retrieved the fans and disappeared. "Where is she?" thought Yumi. Suddenly she felt a sharp pain in her back. Aya as hit her back in the direct angle in which paralyzes her. "I win," whispered Aya, emotionlessly. Aya returned to Sasuke and grabbed his arm. "Come with me!" she demanded while Sasuke followed.

Aya took Sasuke into the hall. "Sasuke, that mark," she said as she touched the curse. "It's nothing," said Sasuke as he grabbed Aya's hand away. "I know someone. He was in the exact same situation as you except his happened six years ago, a year before it happened to you," said Aya calmly. "His clan was destroyed by his brother," she said as she looked down. Sasuke flinched and stepped back. "The same thing is happening now. The curse," said Aya before she pulled Sasuke's head down before she kissed him on the mouth. Aya broke the kiss and looked into Sasuke's eyes and tears started to build up in her eyes. "Please be careful, don't use Sharingan," said Aya before she whipped a tear from crawling down her cheek. "I just don't want to lose another person I loved," she said before she whimpered and ran off. "Aya!" yelled Sasuke. "I'll see you back at the arena," yelled Aya as she smiled a weak smile and ran faster. "Tatsuke?" thought Sasuke.

Tatsuke smiled when he saw Sakura walking towards him. "Hi Tatsuke," replied Sakura with a smile. "You okay?" asked Tatsuke when he saw her worried expression. "Sasuke, he-" said Sakura before she paused. "Never mind," said Sakura before she looked away. "I know," said Tatsuke under his breath. "I won't tell her yet," thought Tatsuke before he directed his gaze on the battle taking place a level down. Mitsuki was against a purple haired girl. Aya walked next to Tatsuke and sighed. "Sasuke?" asked Tatsuke. "I think he got the message," whispered Aya into Tatsuke's ear. "What is Orochimaru planning," thought Tatsuke. "Mitsuki!" screamed Aya. Tatsuke looked down to see the purple haired girl choking Mitsuki. "How did this happen?" asked Tatsuke. "Her defense is usually unbreakable," said Aya. Mitsuki kicked the girl into the air and stood up. "Ankitan Santinsan!" she yelled and the bow and arrow appeared. The arrow shot into the girl's stomach and the girl fell onto the ground. "Thew that was close!" sighed Mitsuki before she waved at Gaara, Tatsuke, and Aya. Gaara nooded in relief. "That was close," he thought.
