Betrayal
Anyone who hasn't experienced the ecstasy of betrayal knows nothing about ecstasy at all.
5 years old- I had three close friends, Sora, Yumi, and Sal.
6 years old- Yumi moves to Konoha with his aunts. Sal plans to become a ninja, but has to wait two years until she's old enough to start. I planned to become a ninja, and Salem supported my decision.
7 years old- Another friend moved in. Her name was Rochelle. She was under a lot of pressure to become a ninja, since her entire family was. Word came the weekend after we met that Yumi was dead. Rochelle was amazing and stayed there with me. I was lucky to have such good friends. Salem was also there to comfort me.
It breaks my heart; it makes me sad to think of all the times we had. You made me laugh and you made me cry. And all that I can do is sigh and wonder why
8 years old- Sal went into the ninja program. We all did, actually. But as that year went on, Salem started acting different. He took a specific interest in Sora, which I thought was because he was my only guy friend. Later that year he died. Sora stopped talking to me after that. My parents made me drop out of the ninja program. Salem and I stay close.
9 years old- I stopped talking to Sal, Sora, and Rochelle all together. They would always talk about ninja things. It just broke my heart.
10 years old- I started being called Misery. No one really talked to me.
A new system started. There were two people in it, who's names were unknown. I didn't think much of it, but they were known as SJ and SM. SM always took a specific interest in me, until my parents told him that they'd send him away if he mentioned me again.
I hate the idea of causes, and if I had to choose between betraying my country and betraying my friend, I hope I should have the guts to betray my country
11 years old- Rochelle moved away to another ninja village, but I didn't know until a few years later.
12 years old- The last time I saw Sal and Sora. They graduated and became ninja and I was there with them. Sora seemed to know a lot about my life, which I didn't think of.
One should rather die than be betrayed. There is no deceit in death. It delivers precisely what it has promised. Betrayal, though ... betrayal is the willful slaughter of hope.
13 years old- Nothing happens of any significance.
14 years old- I've admitted to myself that I accept Salem's death. I'd accepted it a long time ago, but I realized I accepted it now.
Trust can take years to build, but only seconds to destroy.
15 years old- I go spend a year in the Hidden Stone Village as an exchange student. If I ever leave, then I want to move here.
16 years old- Nothing unusual.
Then you should have died! Died, rather than betray your friends, as we would have done for you!
17 years old- I've officially lost all care in the world. I don't care about anyone. No one notices me. Even when I'm in a group, no one sees me. I practically don't exist.
18 years old- I've learned how to feel emotions again. My parents die. I meet someone and I leave the village that I've grown up in to go to the Stone Village. I start to realize that I'm not alone. I sacrifice my safety for this person who I can't stand. I saw Sora again. I learned that I have a Bloodline trait. I learn that I love someone.
I've been betrayed by two of the most important people in my life--
The day you betrayed my trust was the day that I lost all my trust for you. I believed that you would take care of my heart and that's why I left it with you. Well, I am taking it back because at this very moment I can't trust you with my heart in fear that you will hurt me once more
Love is whatever you can still betray ... Betrayal can only happen if you love.
Betrayal does that -- betrays the betrayer.
OMG! Does this give a bigger hint as to who the mystery man is.
Hint: Sora is SJ. So SM is the second guy. If you can't figure this out, then I don't know what more I have to do.
The -- means that that's as far as she's gotten.
