Chapter 11
It was near afternoon, the time when Academy students leave the Academy. A bell rang softly as the students filed out the door, eager to reunite with their parents. There was no sight of a peculiar little white haired child. Only until all the children were gone, did the little Hatake come out of the door. He began walking to a familiar street, eager to see his giant friends.
((Scene Change))
Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura finished training. They were sweating all over from the heat of the blaring sun. Picking up their kunai and shurikens that were littered all over the floor, they spotted a familiar tuft of white hair coming over the hill. It was coming toward them. It was menacingly silver. What could it be?!?! IT WAS….
Kakashi!!
"Ohayo! You guy's have been training?" said Kakashi, his eyes darting all over the numerous kunai and shuriken littered on the floor.
"Uh, yeah. We made some progress." Sakura said awkwardly.
"Hn. I managed to beat Mr. Dobe over here." Sasuke glanced at Naruto, who was still picking up the weapons.
"Hey, guys. Let's go get some ramen because I'm hungry from all this training." Naruto whimpered when he pricked himself with a kunai.
The little group began picking up the weapons and storing them back into the box. It took about an hour, because of the great number of weaponry on the floor. After the weapons were back into the box, neatly organized, they went to get some lunch.
"Ramen, ramen, ramen, ramen." Naruto chanted as they got closer to the restaurant.
"Shut up, Naruto!" Sakura yelled as she gave a hit to his head.
When Naruto was done pouting, they went inside and ordered a few bowls of ramen.
When they were done, Naruto paid (and that made his little gama-chan lighter) and they set off back to their den. Kakashi ran ahead of the group, eager to tell his father some random news.
The three man trio slowly made their way to the house. As they went into the living room, they saw Kakashi trying to get the sake bottle away from a drunken Sakumo.
They were going to walk toward the little battle between the sake bottle...
And they gaped at what they saw next.
When Sakumo backhanded Kakashi, sending him skittering to the grandfather clock that was in the way. He rammed head first into the hard glass, sending shards of glass all around him. The grandfather clock slowly swung, violently threatening to crush whoever that was in it's path. Naruto quickly ran to Kakashi, grabbed him, and ran quickly before it could crush both of them under it.
Kakashi's head was bleeding severely, staining his silver hair with tints of red. Sakura quickly rushed to operate on Kakashi's head before he dies of blood loss. Sasuke knocked Sakumo out and began tying him to a chair before he get's another sip of the sake.
Sakura quickly rushed Kakashi to his room, where they can pull out some bits of glass that was stuck on his head. Sakura did not want to lose a patient, so she began quickly by ordering Naruto to get the required supplies.
When she got everything, she began to stop the bleeding with her chakra. Then, she pulled out the bits of glass out of Kakashi's head with a tweezer. She then applied pressure to the little bleeding gaps that the shards of blood stained glass created. When the bleeding completely stopped, she began stitch the little cuts together. Lastly, she used her medical skills to efficiently heal the stitches, until they became no more than a scar. She sighed and left the sleeping boy to his room. Sakura then saw Sasuke and Naruto confiscating Kakashi's bag, dumping out the contents on the floor.
"What are you guys doing, invading one's privacy?!?!" Sakura stormed at the two.
"Hey, we're just looking at what he does in the academy." Naruto explained.
There were lot's of notebooks and folders, full of notes.
"That's still not nice! And you too, Sasuke-kun?!?!" Sakura bellowed.
"Ano sa,! Look at this!" Naruto held out something.
It was a Konoha headband.
"Wow. It's a Konoha headband. Does that mean he graduated?" Sasuke asked.
"I don't know. Let's ask Kakashi." Naruto suggested.
"We can't. He's sleeping right now." Sakura deadpanned.
"Who's sleeping right now?" A voice called out.
They turned around…
And it was Kakashi!
"Why are you three going through my bag?" Kakashi asked, walking down the stairs.
"Um, nothing Kakashi-kun." Sakura said quickly, while Naruto hid the forehead protector behind his back and smiled.
"You can drop the 'kun' okay? And Naruto, why do you have my forehead protector?" Kakashi asked, turning to Naruto.
Naruto's grin faded a bit, but was replaced by a bigger one.
"Hey Kakashi, did you graduate?" Naruto somehow grinned and asked at the same time.
"Uh, yeah. Why do you ask?" Kakashi shot back at the question.
Three mouths wrenched open, swinging freely in the air.
"SO DO YOU MEAN YOU GRADUATED FROM THE ACADEMY WHEN YOUR JUST 5 YEARS Ol-"Naruto shouted, and Sakura punched him through the wall just for that.
"I just graduated today. So what?" Kakashi's voice turned icy and unemotional in three seconds flat. Somehow just like Sasuke's voice, but more unemotional.
"H-H-How did you do that?" Naruto squeaked from the non-emotional demeanor.
"Do what?" Kakashi snapped back.
"Zero to pissed in three seconds flat." Sasuke shot back at him.
"Oh, so the emo boy talks back, ne?" Kakashi challenged Sasuke to a glaring match.
Unfortunately Kakashi won, making Sasuke retreat and hold his tongue.
"Whatever. I'm going upstairs. You can untie my father now." Kakashi said unemotionally while walking up the stairs.
Silence for 5 whole minutes…
"How in the hell does he does that?" Naruto asked, once he regained his composture.
"I don't know, but it challenged Sasuke's glare, and actually won." Sakura whispered.
Sasuke was sitting crossed legged, staring at the floor, muttering incomprehensible words like a lunatic.
"Hey Sasuke, what did you see in his eyes?" Naruto waddled over to Sasuke after being spooked for about five seconds.
"Hate. Anger. Hollow. Empty." Sasuke managed to mutter comprehensibly.
"Wow. What's gotten into him." Naruto whispered, looking at the stairs.
" I don't know, but let's go to sleep. It's almost midnight." Sakura managed to whisper and break away from the trancing Naruto.
"Yeah." Sasuke whispered.
"Let's go."
"Yeah."
The three went to their rooms, utterly confused and disturbed at what they saw.
O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.
