Chapter 2: Kyohaku
A boy of only eight, ran through the village of Sound into the main governing building. Many of the Sound Ninjas just rolled their eyes as they only saw the blur of the boy pass by. It was well known that the boy was the only child in Sound and that if anyone dared touch the boy, they will be facing a rather protective Kabuto. This also gave Kabuto the new nickname of 'Mother Hen'.
Kabuto was in his lab when the boy entered nearly running into him. "Whoa, there. Where are you off to in a hurry?"
"Wolves were chasing me. Big, gray wolves with huge gold eyes. Many of them had lots of scratches, probably from losing to their prey since they looked very hungry. I didn't want to be the next meal so I ran here from the lake."
"Kyohaku, you know you aren't suppose to be at the lake by yourself. We are still at war." Kabuto was amused from the story, but was upset that Kyo disobeyed him about not going to the lake with an escort.
"Gomennasi, Otousan." Suddenly the door to the lab opened, and Orochimaru entered. "Orochimaru-sama." Kyo gave a quick bow.
"Orochimaru-sama, what brings you here?"
Orochimaru looked at the child. The boy had blond hair with black highlights down past his shoulders, dark purple eyes, and snowy white skin that stood out against his black and red clothes. He wore a black, long sleeve over-sized netted shirt, a red long-sleeve undershirt, black pants, black sandal, red fingerless gloves with black metal plate on the back, and his red headband with the Sound symbol.
He had heard all of the boy's training and mishaps. The boy is the talk of the village when there is nothing to talk about. A child living among some of the most feared ninjas in the world. Though, as far as Orochimaru is concerned, there are no children in Sound. The boy is another tool, that happens to be curious, hyper, immature, and carefree.
"How is our new project?" Orochimaru asked after only a few seconds of observing the boy.
"Everything is going as planned. Kyo, go to the practice area, I'll meet you there soon. Practice your taijutsu." Kabuto said.
"Hai, Otousan. Orochimaru-sama." The boy left the lab quicker than he entered.
"How is his loyalty?"
"That is an odd question to be asking about a mere child."
"There..."
"There are no children in Sound. Yes, we all know, but some of us can't help but just view him as a child. So naïve to the world around him. Far as I can tell, he is loyal to me, and I am loyal to you." The conversation became all business.
Kyo arrived at the practice area after detouring to his room for his weapon he forgot to take with him to the lake. It was a staff and each end was a sword in the shape of a flame. He was a natural at the weapon, like he had hundreds of years of practice with it. It was just as odd as the visions he sees when he sleeps, though he originally thought they were dreams.
His visions involve two boys older than himself. One has midnight color hair and eyes. The second has hair of the sun and eyes of the sky. There is a third presence, but it is faint, but dark and kind of evil. Sometimes he see other people, but he can't see them very well and they are interacting with the boys.
There is one vision he remembers very well. It occurs on a bridge being built. He feels the black hair boy fall into darkness. Then he feels the rage of the blond hair boy and the strong presence of the Third being. They were fighting this older person, who kept moving to and from several mirrors made from ice.
Then the vision changed to the blonde hair boy looking shocked at the scene before him. A silver hair man had lighting cover his hand and thrust his hand toward another man, but young person the blonde was fighting got in the way. He felt the blonde become very sad.
He always felt what the main characters of his visions felt and he didn't like it. There was a lot of pain, sorrow, rage, and coldness. Happiness was just a mask. They were never happy, at least not in his visions. If they were ever happy, he never saw it.
"Kyo. Brat!" A hand waved in front of the boy's face, bring Kyo out his thoughts. Kyo caught the other's hand.
"Have a nice talk with Orochimaru-sama, Otousan?" Kyo asked. Before Kabuto could respond, there was a large explosion nearby. Then there were sounds of battle. Sound was under attack.
"Kyohaku, get out of the village. Go to the place I showed you for hiding."
"But..."
"Go!" Kyo started to run away, but stopped when he heard someone to the ground. He turned to see a silver hair ninja with a face mask checking the vitals of Kabuto...making sure he was dead.
"OTOUSAN!"
