CHAPTER RATING: T
Episode 11: Forgotten, Part I: Lost Light
"Good! Sakura! We can take a break now!" Kakashi shouted. Sakura moved her arm and wiped her brow. "We'll resume your training in a few minutes, come take a rest." He said as he motioned for her towards the waterfall. Kakashi offered Sakura a seat next to him, which she gratefully took.
"You're making great progress, I suspect that you won't need too much time now until you can fully get it down." He observed. "Is something wrong?" he asked her.
"Kakashi-sensei, do you think that Tsunade-sama was right about Naruto? Do you think he can…"
"I don't doubt him one bit." He answered immediately. Sakura's eyes widened at his interruption.
"You're right. I shouldn't have doubted him, either." She smiled back at him with assurance.
…
Naruto opened his eyes, and shook his head as he woke up; he saw a figure sitting at the end of his bed. He smiled, expecting to see her pink hair and emerald eyes.
Instead he saw magenta hair, and scarlet eyes. He tried to sit up, but his hands wouldn't move. He glared up and noticed that they were tied to his bed posts. He glanced down at his feet, and noticed that they too, were restrained.
He heard the snap of a pocket knife.
"What are you going to do?" he fiercely asked. She didn't answer, but brought the blade up to his neck. He braced for the worst as he felt the cold steel against his skin. To his surprise, no pain shot through him, instead he heard several pops as the knife created rips in his shirt.
"I don't appreciate what you did to me last night." Karin said while looking at him with narrow eyes. She brought her hands to his chest, and with one swift motion, ripped his shirt in half.
"AH! THAT WAS MY FAVORITE SHIRT!" he protested. She swiftly tugged the shirt and pulled it from underneath him. Naruto's mouth and eyes hung open as he saw her take it, bring it to her face and take a deep breath. "What the hell is wrong with you?!" he shouted.
"What's wrong with me? You lied to me last night." Karin answered in a dark tone. "I'm going to do to you what I was planning to do to Sasuke." A grin stretched over her face.
"What the hell are you going to do?" Naruto demanded to know as his eyes narrowed.
"Your clone didn't notice anything? Why do you think you fell asleep so fast?" She replied. Naruto thought back to what had happened the previous night.
"Every time you bit down on my lip…I became weaker." Her hand moved down his chest as she brought her face closer to his.
"I can take you chakra, Naruto." His eyes widened at her words. She came even closer to him. His eyes closed as she kissed him; pulling away, he felt her sink her teeth into his lower lip again. Just as she had said, he felt his body weaken, his body sunk into the mattress, powerless as his limbs were restrained.
"Wait…y-you can't do this, if you take my chakra, the Nine-tails will take over." He gasped. She bent over again over his ear.
"I'm only going to take enough to put you to sleep. Then, I'll ravish you, just like I planned to do to Sasuke." Her lips made contact with his again as his eyelids became heavier.
Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.
"Naruto?! Open up, it's me, Yamato!" he heard echo from behind the door.
"Yamato-taichou!...HELP!" Naruto screamed with all of the energy he had left. She forcefully pushed him down and took his head into her hands.
"I'll make sure you don't even remember this." She whispered into his ear. Her teeth made contact with his neck and fiercely bit down. He let out a blood-freezing scream.
"Naruto?!" he heard a scream from behind the door. The next sound he heard was a loud smash. The last thing he saw was the devious smile on Karin's face as his eyelids closed, and his world went black.
…
The sound of dripping water woke him up as he stared into a pitch black ceiling; water partially submerged his body.
"Naruto…" a deep, evil voice called out to him.
"What do you want, you bastard fox." he replied sluggishly.
"Well, well, well. Look at who is suddenly a big shot. You have a loud mouth, but you can't do anything. You can't even move." Naruto tried to move his fingers, but they didn't even twitch.
"Damn it." He whispered out loud.
"This seems familiar, doesn't it?" The Nine-tails asked provokingly. Naruto didn't respond to his taunting, he merely closed his eyes and tried to focus on his movements.
"If I recall…" The Nine-tails stated in his deep voice. "There was a woman name Fuuka who did this to you." Naruto's eyes twitched at the memory.
"Yes, the same thing happened. You were nearly drained of all your chakra." A grin appeared on the Nine-tail's jaw, revealing his massive and sharp teeth. "You have no one to blame but yourself for your own stupidity."
Naruto flinched at the statement.
Your kindness is your weakness.
You've forgotten the most important thing about being a Jinchuuriki…
You are alone.
You have always been alone.
You will always be alone.
No one has ever cared for you.
No one has ever loved you.
They have only lied to you.
They lied to you because they despised you.
Now they lied to you because they realize how gullible you really are.
You're such a worthless human being, your only worth is that I am still trapped in here.
Naruto couldn't find the strength to reply at the razor sharp words that left scars in his heart.
"It is because of your kindness that you made the foolish decision to bring that woman to your home. It was your foolish decision to cooperate with her, no matter what her demands were. You're pathetic."
"You seem to have forgotten what you really are. You are a weapon and nothing else. Everyone you've known doesn't love you. You are merely a tool at the disposal of the Fifth Hokage. If I wasn't here, your existence would be meaningless."
Naruto gritted his teeth at the barrage of hatred that assaulted his ears.
"Now, do you remember what saved you the last time this happened?"
Naruto froze in thought.
"Sakura-chan…she brought me back. Her love brought me back to life." His mind blanked for a moment, and as he opened his eyes he noticed that he now stood in front of the sealed gate. His back turned away from the Nine-tails.
"The last time, you were saved by a light that shined in the darkness." The Nine-tails pointed ahead of Naruto.
"But look, where is the light that you reached out to?"
"Where is your 'light in the darkness' now?"
Naruto tried to bring his eyesight into focus.
"SHE'S GONE!" the Nine-tails screamed out.
Naruto's eyes closed in despair; his knees gave way as he dropped down into the cold water.
The darkness swiftly engulfed him; his will to go on was lost.
There is no light for me to follow; there is nothing…nothing but darkness.
I apologize if changing the title is confusing you. But I want to get a good subtitle to differentiate the different parts.
