Hey you guys and welcome back to another chapter of Lights Way. It seems like I haven't written in a long time but it's been only like a week. I wish I could post a chapter everyday but my life is so busy with school and all, so without further ado chapter seven.
The Letter
One Year Later:
Dear Naruto,
Memories are like containers of the past. If you squeeze the container hard enough it will break into a thousand pieces and what was bottled up inside will spill all over. No matter how hard you try to pick up the pieces, it will never be the same.
All that stuff you had bottled up is now in the open for all to see. They start to laugh at you and make fun of you for it. You start to feel alienated from the world around you. Your life seems to break at the seams but you don't care.
All you care about is how you're going to make it through the day. Sadness is but a problem you know well enough to avoid but it rears its ugly head. You wish that it was all gone and forgotten but you know that's not possible. Instead you start to live your life of in the dark.
You try, but on the inside you feel like curling up into a ball and letting the darkness embrace you. It's cold and unwanted to the outside world but to you it's like a warm blanket. You cuddled up to it but then you realize what it wants from you.
It says things that make you feel wanted and loved. The darkness wants to invoke feelings of that but it's just a big lie. All it wants is dominion over you. To control you and make you do its evil deeds. You try to escape but it always seems to come back with the vengeance.
Then one day you can't take it anymore. You tell it that it no longer has control over you. It laughs at you and says," Why I thought I was your friend. No one will ever love a monster like you expect me." Its voice is full of hate and your heart breaks into two. The darkness then looks at you with its malicious eyes. You fall to the floor and began to cry.
Darkness does not like outside emotion and it stops blasting your mind full of hate and sadness. Just then a small glimmer of light enters the dark and barren world you live in. The darkness then starts to weep as well.
The light continues to get bigger and bigger till the dark is no longer there. You feel for once in your life hope. A sound then begins to echo through the barren land and you notice a figure standing by you. It's the darkness that has been tormenting for so long but it's crying. You call out to it and start's to run away from you. You get up from the floor and you start to run after it. The more you do the darkness begins to slow down until you reach it. Grabbing it, it turns to face you. You look at it and realize it's you. The darkness has been but you all this time. You start to cry and the darkness stops. Looking at you it begins to smile.
You take notice and see that it no longer has evil intent but good. All it wants from you is love and support. You hug it and no longer cold but warm and inviting. I wish that you could see that Naruto but my time in this world is running out and coming to an end. My only regret is not seeing you for the last time. I have more to say but I think I have said enough in this letter. I love you with all my heart and soul.
Love,
Kimimaro
P.S
I want you to move on and love another like you have loved me. Please don't think that you're responsible for my death Naruto. All I want is for you to live a happy and fulfilling life.
Aww. This chapter almost brought me tears :(. This was a way for Kimimaro to tell Naruto not to feel sad for his passing but to tell him to move on with his life and all. Also should have I included more in this chapter (it fells like am missing something but i cant put my finger on it). Anyways tell me in a review. Until next time Ciao.
