mistake. lol
1 Year Later:
Gai patted Kakashi on the back and smiled his flashy smile. Anyone who had seen that smile would have sworn they saw a glint of light shine from his pearly white teeth. Even in the darkest night.
"Hey there, will you stop sulking already? You want to spar maybe? Go for ramen? And I don't believe you when you say that nothing's wrong. Just take a look at yourself, just lying around," he said bending down to look at Kakashi eye to eye. The other ninja lay on the couch and sighed deeply. It was his and Suzue's anniversary (no, not wedding) and he wasn't about to tell that to Gai. He was rather mysterious about his personal affairs.
"I think a ramen sounds good," he replied as get got to his feet and ran a hand through his hair. He needed to get his minds off of things for a bit, and perhaps food was the answer.
At the ramen stall, Gai inquired about Kakashi's relationship with Suzue. They had already chatted about most other things on the way, and he felt he had a right to know.
"So. . . there's still another four years until our little bell returns, eh? You're not looking at the other ladies are you?" he asked jokingly with a loud laugh. It was then that his face turned serious. "'Cause I'm watching you. You better not make our little bell cry when she does get back."
"I would never do that," said Kakashi as he placed the empty bowl onto the back counter. He had barely taken a quarter of a minute to finish eating. Gai looked down at his own bowl of ramen, still full to the brim, and began to eat faster.
"You know. . . I used to always see the two of you hanging around each other, ever since we all were kids. But if I didn't know any better, I'd never think that the two of you guys were a couple," he stated before proceeding to take in a mouthful of noodles.
"Are a couple," he corrected. "Why do you bring this up now?" asked Kakashi. He sat with his elbow to the counter and his chin resting in his hand.
Gai just shrugged and swallowed his lunch. "You seem a bit more out of it today. I just don't see how you can get so hung up over her absence when you two never looked like you were together in the first place. But still. . ." his voice trailed away. Kakashi looked even glummer than before, proving to Gai that it really was her absence that tugged at his spirit.
Kakashi longed to see her again. Even if just once for a moment. He wanted more than anything to let her soft raven hair glide through his fingers, to hold her and to kiss her sweet, pink lips. He had suffered when she hid in her apartment for a week, and now it had been a year. For the first while his heart had been in torment, but now the feelings had finally come to a standstill as a numb empty sensation. There was only more time of loneliness ahead to look forward to, but as they say, absence makes the heart grow fonder.
4 Years Ago from Present Time:
"So how long has it been since you-know-who left?" asked Asuma, taking a puff from a cigarette. The smoke curled out from his mouth and wafted to the ceiling lazily. "Three years?" He looked over at Kakashi who was sitting reading the newest addition to Come Come Paradise. The grey-haired jounin looked over at the other and nodded.
"So ka. . . Yes, three years. Seems so much longer though," Kakashi said as he lowered the book in thought. His mind wandered for a moment, leaving a silent pause, and then he simply sighed and went back to his reading. Asuma prodded further bored with watching Kakashi read his book and chuckle every now and then.
"I never really talked to that girl about her skills. Suzue is her name, right? I heard she was supposed to have great potential in espionage and that's why they sent her on that mission. What are her specialties?" he asked. A few ashes fell from the end of the cigarette as it moved in his lips as he spoke.
Kakashi looked up again, peering out from under his head protector with one eye. "Potential? I'd say she is already quite good at that sort of thing. She has superb hearing. Her earrings were crafted to channel in sound waves far more precisely too. On top of that," he stopped for a second. "She is able to see into people merely by their outward appearance. As for specialties. . . she was able to master weather manipulation." The ninja fell quiet again, though the silence was interrupted abruptly by Asuma asking yet another question about the woman.
"Weather manipulation. . . ah. I hear she knows a Forbidden Ninjutsu. What is it?" he said bluntly.
"Shinigami no Chu. . ." Kakashi replied, just as straightforward. He went back to his book and turned his body slightly indicating that the conversation had finished. Asuma said no more.
Exert from the Forbidden Scroll: The Shinigami no Chu (roughly Death's Kiss) was a technique with two opposite sides. Similar to how two faces of a coin are stuck together to make one. When the proper seals and chakra are combined, the caster will have the ability to use the jutsu for the following four minutes. Its purpose is to instantly kill the target. The caster is able to absorb all chakra from the target's body through contact of lips (a kiss). If this jutsu is cast and not used in the following four minutes, the caster will die instantly instead. Its other purpose is to revive the freshly dead. The fallen must have only been gone for a maximum of four minutes, or the jutsu will fail. To revive one who has died from mortal wounds or great physical damage would be pointless, as they would be brought back to life only to die once more. Its healing abilities are vastly limited, and work only with the addition of or cleansing of blood. This jutsu is best used when the deceased have died of suffocation, drowning, poisoning, or blood loss. The caster transfers almost all of their own chakra into the body of the dead to revive them, the end result being two living ninjas at the lowest limit of chakra needed to live. Both involved would be incapacitated for four days. If the caster does not have the chakra needed to bring back the dead and performs the Shinigami no Chu, or they are unable to control how much chakra they transfer, or they cast it on a living being, they will die also.
Suzue screamed in unimaginable anger as she ran swiftly past the bloodied bodies of her fallen teammates, a kunai clenched in her hand ready to strike. They had been ambushed in a foreign land and only two remained alive, including her. Suzue's arm whipped back suddenly and flashed forward sending the blade into the neck of one of her attackers. There were many more coming, and no escape. She could see another coming at a rapid pace to her in the distance, mask-less.
"Ch. . . I can't die here. Not now. He's waiting."
Her fingers folded delicately, despite her rage, into a complex seal and she took a last breath. Then her hands flashed in hundreds of seals in only a matter of seconds as the enemy ninja advanced on her. At the last moment, when he was only 20 feet away, she finished the last seal and let out that breath. They both lunged forward into each other, arms shooting out, ready to grapple. It was too late. She hadn't seen the neko-te on the man's hands behind his back, having been blinded by her emotions. Suzue knew she couldn't reach his lips in time. She was almost glad to know that she would never have to touch them. Never have to give her own to any other man, even in battle for life and death. A bittersweet smile spread across her face as the poisoned claws raked across her cheek, sending shooting pain into her head and blood streaming down her face. It was all numb very fast, and then. . . the darkness came. The Shinigami had taken her life as fast as the poison had immediately taken effect.
