I own nothing but naruto's mindscape setting. Do not take it without asking.
Chapter 2
My world my creation
'The feeling. It's back.'
'Normally, it happens when I am about to go to sleep. Why is it different now?' naruto thought.
On his way to the bridge the wind blew in his direction, carrying the smell of sasuke. It was overwhelming. The wind circled him in the smell of musk, fresh soil, and a slight hit of tomatoes.
Naruto was slightly upset when the wind died down. It was almost like a caress, almost like being held.
He's just your comrade nothing elseā¦
Is he my comrade though? He did try and kill me, three times.
Naruto shook his head and went over to watch the fish below, their movements almost hypnotizing. They were waiting for kakashi to arrive. Sakura was smiling and talking to sasuke as sasuke just stared at the ground. Every now and then he would think that Sasuke was staring at him but when naruto turned around he would look somewhere else.
'Like he would look at you' said a voice in naruto's head 'you're nothing but a waste of space to him'
Naruto mentally frowned.
'Be quiet, how would you know anyway, you can't see anything that goes on out there.'
Those voices were shinjin and utagai, they meant faith and doubt. Naruto ran into them when he was exploring his mind.
He came into a dark room where shard of crystals fell. Every being he met in life, they each had their own crystal. On them brief shot of the beings moved, or memories of his encounter with them danced. Walking in, he was about to touch one when the room shook. That's when he met shinjin and utagai. They came out of the walls across from each other. The were as tall as the room itself, made of stone with cloaks covering their entire bodies except for their faces. Shinjin had the opera mask of tragedy on, while utagai had the mask of comedy on.
But, they were different from each other
Shinjin was sad most of the time. He's what tries to encourage naruto to be more confident in himself. His voice was soft and unsure. He's supposed to be happy but utagai changed that.
Utagai was in other words fierce. He often belittled naruto much like the villagers. He thinks that naruto should kill everyone around him. The two statues don't get along very well. Whenever shinjin tries to tell naruto something utagai's powerful booming cruel voice interrupts him. They told him that before, their masks were switched, but over time they changed.
Kurama tells naruto not to go near them but he does anyway.
Naruto was about to tell shinjin otherwise but utagai beat him to it
'Shut the fuck up shinjin. Nobody in this village likes him, so why would the Uchiha! I still think this weakling would be better off dead!'
'That's not-'shinjin started
'Better off dead!' utagai boomed, blocking out shinjin.
Naruto sighed mentally as he pulled out of his mind. Those two sometimes. They always gave him a headache. When he opened his eyes he was face to face with coal black eyes a breath away from his.
Naruto gasped loudly as he backed away from sasuke, ending up with his back hitting the light post behind him.
"W-what the hell are you doing" he asked Sasuke with a hand over his heart.
"Tst, idiot kakashi arrived a few minutes ago. When you didn't move we thought you fell asleep standing up" was Sasuke's cold reply.
Naruto quickly looked around and spotted an impatient looking sakura and and slightly worried kakashi. "Now let's go, I want to train if you're done being a nuisance." He continued. And with that they walked off
'See, nothing but a waste. Did you see the fire in his eyes? He probably wants to kill you for doing something that stupid. You can't do anything right can you? Hahaha'
Naruto winced at utagai's cold comment but never less went to join up with his suppose team mates.
'I don't have to be perfect in my own world' was naruto's last thought.
-Sigh- I wanted to fix this chapter, but it just turned out worst than before~ wahhhhhhhh!~
Anywho, I wanted to try and fix up this fic I wrote, reading it over I didn't like the way naruto came off as extremly weak. I mean yes, I will make him weak. But not that weak. Though, I might just be making it worse. Oh! If ANY OF YOU THAT READ THIS THINKS THAT I SHOULD KEEP A CHAPTER THE WAY IT IS. TELL ME SOON OR I WILL CHANGE IT!
