Sry for the long wait, I had some problems with this chapter. For one thing that good feeling is gone, the one you get when u finish writing something? I feel kinda disgusted I don't know why thou….I think im sad but im not sure. I dunno something feels off. Anyway, ok the reviews I got were not what I was expecting…for one everyone is nice! I was all ready for summ ass to tell me to get over myself (n then I could have used up my list of insults) n honestly I wouldn't have mind if someone did cuz I did do it for attention . I wrote that note so id be acknowledged n for someone to read that n see me, I guess…but…WTF wrong with this world! Do u know how many pple told me that they get beaten up too? A LOT! (ok so I didn't count but still). Wow u know when u think ur alone in a situation n suddenly everyone like "o ya been there done that." That's not right. Pisses me off. A couple of pple mentioned suicide in their reviews (again so what if I don't count?). Here's my thoughts on that. Bad idea. I went to a suicide funeral once it was horrible. I know it's a common thought of having pple cry over ur death but believe me if u could see it u would regret making that choice (wish I could explain this better but its just something u have to go threw to understand.) here something kind of funny u know the fight scene between Sasuke and Naruto in chapter 1? I must of rewrote it a million times. The first edition was really bloody and had a lot more action. But I realized it was waaay out of character so DELETE! But I had to leave one scene alone. When Naruto nailed Sasuke in the stomach and in the groin? That is so my move! Now I know fighting is wrong (hehehe) but in some situation that move is acceptable. For one ur opponent has to be a guy in order for it to work n has to be holding u like that so it's a good move. Sry just so proud of that move! It was the first time I tried fighting back! Must tell story! There were two guys …my age…um one was hitting me in the stomach and the other had my hands behind my back (two against one so not fun) I got my hand loose enough to slam my elbow in his stomach and wham! Crushed his family jewels! Lolz good times! so ya this chap aint perfect cuz i rushed a couple of parts sooo ya
Chapter dedicated to my friend shell-cuz of our promise n bond n cuz she protects me
Angels Refuse to Die
Chapter two-Gulp Gulp Swallow Swallow
°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø °º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸¸
I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies
That you've been living in
And if you do not want to see me again
I would understand
I would understand

Sasuke walked to the clearing in a bit of a daze.
'Why does Naruto have a seal on him? How come he never told me' Sasuke felt his anger for the boy rise.
'Why the fuck didn't he tell me?'
Sasuke looked up when he realized he was now in the meeting pace and dimly aware that Sakura was not with Kakashi.
"Well did you find out any new information from Naruto?'
Sasuke regrouped his thoughts and paused before asking.
"Did you know Naruto has a demon seal on his stomach?"
"You saw the seal?"
Sasuke nodded warily 'he knows about the seal?'
"Where is Naruto? Did he say anything?" Kakashi spoke quickly his voice laced with panic.
Sasuke was momentary disorder at Kakashi tone. He hesitated before speaking.
"I don't know he ran off before I could say anything."
Kakashi nod slowly and took a deep breath before letting the air out. He shut his eyes and concentrated before speaking
"Well practice is canceled for the day. I've already told Sakura. Go home."
He began to walk in the direction of the village when Sasuke spoke up.
"I have a right to know."
Kakashi stopped in his tracks to look over his shoulder at the raven haired boy "Oh do you."
Sasuke glared at his sensei as if the reason was obvious. "He's been lying to us since the first day. As his comrade I have a right to know what he's trying to hide."
Kakashi took his time walking over to the boy before standing over him with a sharp glare.
"A comrade you say? And you believe that gives you the right? Do you think he's dangerous?"
Sasuke cold eyes watched as his teacher leaned down nearly spiting the words in his face if not for the cloth that covered his mouth
"Naruto is dangerous but not in the way you would think. It is a law that no one is to speak of his seal especially not to the children. The only one who excluded from this law is Naruto. Now if Naruto wanted he could tell anyone but he has chosen to never say anything. Maybe he didn't want to be treated any differently or maybe he wanted to grow up like any other kid in this village. I don't know but I believed that if he found someone who wouldn't hate or reject him I'm sure he would have told that person.
You mad because he been hiding his secret from you correct? Do you honestly believe that he's been lying to you to piss you off? Want to know why he's never trusted you enough to let you know? Its because your just a comrade."
Kakashi spun around and headed towards the village before taking off he was able to identify Naruto's charka.
'What is he doing on the Hogue Mountain?'
°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸¸ °º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø °º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸¸ °º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø °º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸¸
Naruto sat looking up at the sky watching the clouds grow darker. He smiled upwards at the gray clouds.
"Ha Come on cloud! I dare you to hit me with lightning! I'm the great Naruto nothing can kill me!"
"Naruto what are your doing?" the voice startled him out of his shouting and he looked up to see his sensei standing over him with his eye crinkled upward in a smile.
Naruto grinned "Claiming my spot" he motioned Kakashi to sit beside him.
"When I become Hokage I want my face to go here, looking at the village!"
Naruto suddenly frowned as he remembered something.
"Sasuke knows"
Kakashi gave a slight nod "not everything but he knows a little"
"He hates me"
Kakashi swallowed as reflex that noise it had startled him. That voice was it really Naruto's? He turned to look at the blond only to find him self staring into emotionless blue eyes. Kakashi felt a shiver run down his back. Eyes that were normally so cheerful and full of life how can these eyes belong to Naruto? They look so dead.
"He wants me dead"
'He had to say that'
"No Naruto he doesn't want you dead"
Naruto let out a puff of air and chuckled
"Everyone in this village is waiting for me to die."
Why did he have to say it like that? Like it was some big joke. Kakashi hesitated to say the next few words but he had to know.
"Naruto have you ever tried to-to kill yourself?"
The teacher quickly glanced at the boy's face and was surprised and relived when he saw the boy grinning at him.
'What a stupid question this is Naruto he would never-'
"Of course" Naruto voice halted his thoughts. Kakashi felt his chest clench as Naruto carefree words broke his heart. Of course? Like it was no big deal? Thoughts of Naruto swarmed into his head.
Naruto laughing.
Naruto getting mad and launching attacks.
Naruto's desperate need for any type of attention.
Naruto didn't even notice his Sensei distress as he continued.
"I've tried a couple of times but it's much harder then you'd think. For one thing cutting is out of the question, that stupid Kyuubi heals me no matter what. The closest I got to succeeding was with pain killers. I thought it would be so easy just 'Gulp Gulp Swallow Swallow' and I'd be free, I'd never would be alone or hated again. But it was for selfish reasoning."
For the first time he looked up into Kakashi face, his smile was losing a battle and for now it remained lopsided.
"I wanted to do it for attention, I thought if I'd die people would really see me not just the demon. I fantasized them coming to my funeral, crying over me wishing they had treated me better or at the least noticed me." Naruto's eyes had dimmed at the thought.
Kakashi eye was glassy. He let his head rest on his knees and let the information process. Naruto wanted to die? He had even tried? Kakashi clenched his fist and didn't notice nails sinking into his flesh. He had failed as a teacher. Hell he had failed as a human. He should have seen the signs, nobody could be that happy all the time.
"Then of course I realized what an idiot I was being!" The voice awoke Kakashi from his thoughts, it was filled with hope like the old Naruto. He dared a glance at Naruto to see the boy looking at the town. His face has relaxed and now his goofy grin was back up.
"When I was about to swallow them something stopped me. Actually someone! It was like this voice was screaming in my head to stop calling me names like idiot, stupid and dobe."
Kakashi rose his eyebrow at the last remark "Dobe..?" he chucked under his breath.
Naruto continued without any notice. He jumped up in excitement.
"Ya-ya! So I told myself if people are willing to come to my funeral and feel bad when I'm gone. Then they must be willing to be there for me now! And beside I'm going to be the Hokage! I can't be the Hokage if I'm dead!" He shouted the last part in the air and listened for the valley to echo back his words.
Naruto sat back down shacking in excitement. He took deep breaths to calm down and waited for his fingers filled with stimulation to stop quivering. Only when he felt his pulse slow down did he dare speak again, this time in a lower voice.
"Everyone keeps telling me how I'll never be the Hokage because it's too hard. I know it's not going to be easy but you know what? 'Gulp Gulp Swallow Swallow' sure is but at what cost?"
Kakashi shook his head realizing he may never understand Naruto bizarre logic but he did understand one thing.
'His dreams…they are his lifeline. The real reason he hold on'
Kakashi smiled from under his mask and placed a hand on the boy's head. Naruto looked up in confusion and waited for his Sensei to speak. But Kakashi only smiled and ruffled the boy's blond hair.
Naruto smiled and looked back to the village.
After a while Kakashi finally spoke up "Are you coming back down?" He asked while standing up and stretching
"Ya-ya I'll be down in a while"
Kakashi narrowed his eye "Its going to rain soon."
"Ah stop acting like a mother hen I leave before it rains" Naruto waved him off.
Kakashi nodded and made his way down the mountain. Carefully avoiding any loose rocks or tree roots. Before heading to the village he glanced back to see a dark figure moving towards Naruto. He closed eye and let a breath before looking back up at his two students.
"He doesn't hate you Naruto" he whispered before then continuing his way down the mountain.

Naruto smiled happily at the dark clouds and listened to the roar of thunder draw closer. He heard a twig snap behind him and forced himself to relax. No ones there its just some animal trying to get home before it rains.
"Dobe get up now."
Naruto shoulders tensed up at the voice but he didn't turn around. Instead he stared up at the clouds and felt the first raindrop hit his cheek and slid down onto his chin.
"Come on cloud please I dare you."
