Just a Demon?

I knew it. Nothing could ever be as it seems. I should have known from the start. After all who could like a demon. All those glares, they knew that I could only be a demon. It is all I could ever be. I could never be Hokage. Everyone else knew that. Why did I have to be the only slow one? Why was I always slow?

Kakashi-sensei even knew I wasn't worth the effort, after all he wanted to train the teme during the Chuunin exams… not me. The closet-pervert knew I wasn't worth it. I never could be. Why was I the last to know? The closet-pervert was only going to do it because Kakashi-sensei asked him to. Then Jiraiya did it only out of pity. I should have known.

Gaara knew that anyone who was a demon could never amount to anything good in the world. We are only meant to love ourselves. We are just meant to be tools for the village we live in. I don't want to be here if that is all that I am good for. I want to go out there and maybe… hopefully become stronger. Or maybe if I go out there, something will do me the favor and kill me. After all, who would ever love a demon? Surely
