Chapter 5 "You can't fool a Fox"


The man in front of me had to have been at least seven or eight feet tall. He appeared to be in his late thirties or early forties, a dark shade of blonde hair and lightly tanned skin as well as burning orange eyes. He remained seated on a cot with a faded, worn sheet covering it that was suspended by chains bound to the cemented wall. The cot's chains seemed to be on their last legs after supporting this goliath's body for some time. All in all he was a fearsome beast of a man. Most people would fear him but I hate most people so...I greeted the man with a wave though we were mere feet from each other, "Hi."

The giant remained motionless and just stated, "Hello." I began eyeing the other cot and sensing my sore legs beg for rest. "They get you the same way?" I said as I sat down on the identical cot opposite of the giant, tugging on the hem of the plain white T-shirt the Hellsing dickheads put on me while I was unconscious. "Yep." Was his response, which I promptly mimicked, "Yep." I then had a small panic attack and checked to make sure I was wearing the same underwear beneath the gray sweatpants. My sense of dread dissipated when I noticed I was wearing the same boxer briefs. "At least Alucard didn't see my junk or something." I thought as I settled back into the cot. I'd have to adopt a new level of virginity protection if that happened...beyond my face and personality of course. "They didn't molest you, kid. They aren't that bad. We deserve to be here." He said causing me to turn to him with a scowl. "I didn't do anything wrong, I killed a vampire whore and went a little overboard." I said in aggravated tone. "They said you turned a woman's body to ash by looking at her and that every step you took scorched the ground around you. They said your face-" he started before I cut him off angrily. "You don't have the right to speak about me. None of you know anything about me, who I am or where I come from. You are all nothing but bugs and all I want to do is step on you, but I was taught restraint so I stomp around you instead." I said in a tone full of nothing but sincerity, there was no arrogance or pride, as if I was stating a well-known fact. He looked at the ground shaking his head to the negative and stated with a voice radiating in shame, "I know you are monster like me. You kill like a mindless animal." I frowned. "No. I am a monster but I wasn't born one, I was forced into being one." He looked at me with his lone visible eye that glowered with intensity before saying, "You have killed those that aren't monsters, I can see it in your eyes, you lack innocence. You also have something much worse in your eyes...hate...you want to kill someone very badly. You feel it is justified too, that's a combination destined to cause you pain."

I rubbed my forehead to fight off a headache that was no doubt caused by this giant's bullshit. "You're damn right I've killed many and they all deserved it, they ruined my life or weren't worthy of their own. I have nothing and I live to make sure they lose everything as well!" He started ramble wildly, "You sit here in your puddle of pity and claim to be human when you scream such hateful things like a demon. "

I merely glared in response as my facial muscles began to tense up, my canines gained mass and sharpened along with my other teeth, my lips darkened and cracked, black streaks of melanin stained my cheeks, my fingers with growing claws dug into my thighs and my hair began to stand on end. The transformation came to a head when my onyx eyes became stained with crimson and my now visible iris became slitted. "People like us should've been smothered at birth by our mothers." Was the most recent shovel full of bullshit that spewed from his mouth. My chakra points all flared and the force of the increase of power caused the walls and bench I sat on to creak and crumble. The chakra I stored from my time asleep and my time rotting in front of this bitch seemed to help my chakra coils heal from whatever damage the time/space jutsu caused. I didn't feel that I made a complete recovery but my chakra reserves were around Chunin or Jonin level at least. Anger clearly permeated through my eyes as I looked upon the giant. "You shut your pathetic mouth. A person like you who has time to wallow in regret and not accept who and what they are should just die. I hate everything that you do but I...I must live and assure that no child goes down my path. There must not be anymore demons...more children who are destined to have to live completely alone and turn into monsters...who are hated for simply existing. I can't die because I made a promise to the only two people I care about in this world." I yelled before squinting my eyes in frustration, fighting away the burning sensation of tears and sweat irritating my eye as a thought of what once was crossed my mind's eye.

Years Ago

"Hey! Kiri-nii!" I heard my little sister yell from outside through my small window as I ate breakfast with Miso in my room. "What Mazeru?" I asked after swallowing the delicious, scrumptious, orgasm-causing bacon. "Psst...come over here!" She replied as I scratched my nose and remained seated. "Why'd you whisper if you just yelled? Whatever." I stacked some books on my bed and looked through my window. I saw a pair of small figures with one in the mud and the other stood on the outskirts of the mud puddle. "Hanten won't leave the mud alone! I want to play in that little pool in the corner but I can't move it alone!" Mazeru exclaimed, causing me to sigh and run to the backyard with Miso in tow. I wrapped my arms around Hanten's chest and pulled him away from the mud puddle. He immediately started to cry and almost hit me with mud. I put him down on the edge of the puddle and turned to Mazeru. "Water hose...now." She ran and instead of handing the hose to me she decided to place her thumb on the nozzle to create an S- rank water jutsu, also known as increasing pressure, to make a stronger spray and spray us down. I pointed at Mazeru and looked at Miso. "Charge!" I exclaimed, causing the fox to yip in agreement and gallop on his little legs to Mazeru, only to be sprayed as well. Miso tumbled backwards into the mud then he preceded to play dead. "Damnit, I swear if you two weren't such babies I'd leave you in a ditch somewhere." I yelled causing to Hanten finally speak up. "Nii-san said damnit. I'm telling Mama." He then proceeded to immediately sprint on his chibi legs inside the house. I followed trying to be quiet as possible and sneak back into my room, think along the way. "I swear these brats will get me killed."

Present

My thoughts returned to the present day as I bum rushed the giant and lifted him by his throat. "You should just die...your promises don't matter...none of this lie we call life is worth it! Not even your idiotic wish to help other freaks like us." He said as he reached for my throat. I made my grip on the giant's tighter, making his attempts fruitless. "I'm not like you...I'm willing to do anything for them...even if that makes me a greater monster. Because even if I am the most hated creature on the planet, I won't die here or anywhere until I find and save them because they are my baby brother and sister. They will always look up to me and every second I'm stuck in here I'm failing to live up to their expectations, it scares them." I sank my claws into his throat and ripped them out violently as I dropped him, I then slammed my elbow into the entrance to my enclosure, ripping the door out of the wall. "Also...ever since I was little I always had pain and hatred on my side, I saved all of it...waiting day by day for the time I can share what I was dealt. I know every way to hate and little on how to love but that doesn't bother me, because it makes that love so much more precious. The love I have for my family is much stronger than the chemical bonds made by sex or any other bullshit people like you value. So you can go fuck yourself and die here, people like you who don't even have the will to stand up and hate others are so pathetic you may as well be dead." I said to the corpse before walking to the seamless door and grinned as the scrap metal remains of the giant's cage tried in vain to close as the seamless door opened. I wiped my brow then turned to the camera I knew was in the corner watching the entire ordeal and flipped it off before walking out into the darkness. "No one fools a Fox especially a dumb ass, cigar smoking bitch." I muttered out loud before I sprinted down the hall grabbing my head trying to fight off my headache. "I think that bastard's bitch speech gave me an aneurysm." I muttered silently.

I wandered the many darkened hallways of the Hellsing prison for about twenty minutes before admitting defeat and biting down on my forearm hard enough to break the skin and draw blood. I dipped four of my fingers in the blood before slamming my spread hand on the cement floor. Black archaic markings that had tomoe identical to the trio of tomoe floating in my crimson irises flowed out from under my hand like water flowing through a creek. Miso appeared in a puff of smoke, barking excitedly as he climbed up my leg and wrapped his body around my shoulders. I stroked Miso's whiskered cheek before voicing my request. "I need to find a way out Miso, I hate to admit but I'm lost. So can you...I guess...help me?" Miso just stared at me expectantly and then leaped to the ground and planted his butt down. Miso the fox seemed to be...pouting, I sighed. "I'm sorry I haven't summoned you recently Kit, it's just that I didn't know if these Hellsing people could be trusted and didn't want you to be hurt." I said before reaching to pet the fox. Miso leaped upwards and sank his teeth into my forearm causing me to yelp and pulled my arm back. "What the hell, Kit?" Miso looked up at me with wet eyes then laid out on my feet while whimpering. "...I won't leave you Miso. We are all either of us have now...we are alone and no one that cares about us is alive or can help." Miso started to whimper louder and his ears hung low in sadness, I didn't mean to depress him further. I reached toward another seal tattoo on my ribs under my loose shirt. "However...I won't let either of us die especially you, since you are my only friend Miso. We will grow stronger together, whether it be here or somewhere else, and we will return for Mazeru and Hanten, maybe even Kanade and Shio if they need help." I tapped the tattoo and a cold object wrapped in plastic appeared. "The officials of the Empire will try to deface us and our family so no one will attempt to challenge Shimura's reign. So everyone will just think we are terrorists so the Empire, mainly Shimura, is their savior. Their empire that our family died and fought for starting with the Shodaime Hokage, Hashirama, creating Konohagakure and finished when my Grandfathers, Naruto and Sasuke, created this unified, peaceful nation." I said before craning my neck to rip the plastic open with my teeth.

"The land they stand on was tilled by us and their air was exhaled from our dying breaths. So I will return and reclaim our birthright." I said as I handed the orange popsicle to Miso causing him to stop whimpering and tentatively reach and grasp the treat in his jaws. His behavior caused me to smile serenely.

"Even if I must slaughter then all..." I placed my hand in my pocket and felt the rusting cast iron of Shio's birthday present.

"They will remember our name."
