Chapter 6
Twinkle: It has come to my attention that my stories are not as… descriptive as they should be so, I'll be trying my best to satisfy you guys. Remember writers, the reader comes first. Enjoy!
This is the line.
(Timeskip - That Night)
Kalikamaru's P.O.V.
I feel wonderful. Helping the two most static males in the world become close and smile is an accomplishment. I just hope they appreciate it though I knew they will.
Okay, don't get my wrong, killing is my hobby but under that layer of bloodlust and hatred, there's a kind layer that is rarely seen from me. If you do see it, you're really lucky.
It's now 10 pm and everyone asleep and the sun is leaving a light hue on this dreadful village. You would think being in the place I sought to destroy would make me upset, but this peaceful silence is so soothing.
Getting up from my position on my futon, I climb out the open window onto the roof. Standing, facing the moon that shines upon my face, I start to sing.
Playground school bell rings again
Rain clouds come to play again
Has no one told you she not breathing?
Hello, I'm your mind giving you someone to talk to
Hello
If I smile and don't believe
Soon I know I'll wake from this dream
Don't try to fix me, I'm not broken
Hello, I'm the lie living for you so you can hide
Don't cry
Suddenly I know I'm not sleeping
Hello, I'm still here All that's left of yesterday
Smiling, I lie on my back with my hands behind my head. "Hello Luna." I say to the moon. Knowing its not going to reply, I spoke again. "Its been a long time I've seen you. I'm just glad I can be myself. If only my parents where here to see what I've become." I take my hands from behind my head and look at them. "Their little bundle of joy has become a killing machine." My voice wavers as unwanted tears fill my eyes. Sitting in the fetal position with my arms wrapped around my knees which are hugged to my chest, I look up to the moon once more. "You really were the only one looking out for me when I was younger. Thank you." With this I stand, not bothering to wipe at the tears that are now running down my face in streams. I hop back through the open window, and lay down on my futon for sleep which comes instantly.
(Sasuke's P.O.V.)
I was sleeping on the floor of my brothers room attempting to fall asleep when I heard someone on the roof. Thinking its someone looking for me like my idiot teammate Sakura, I get off the floor before stretching. I walk through the hallway without making a sound and open the front door. Before I make it to the roof, I hear singing.
"Playground school bell rings again." I know that voice, it's Kalikamaru. 'What is she doing up this late?' Not wanting to disturb her so she won't cleave my head off, I stay still and listen.
Rain clouds come to play again
Has no one told you she's not breathing?
Hello, I'm your mind giving you someone to talk to
Hello
'Her voice sound so… silky and beautiful.' I think.
If I smile and don't believe
Soon I know I'll wake from this dream
Don't try to fix me, I'm not broken
Hello, I'm the lie living for you so you can hide
Don't cry
Suddenly I know I'm not sleeping
Hello, I'm still here
All that's left of yesterday
Snapping out of the daze I was in, I realize she stopped singing. Yet again, I soundlessly slip into the house and go back to Itachi's room, feeling more tired than before. As soon as my head touched the pillow, I fell asleep.
(Timeskip – The Next Morning)
Normal P.O.V.
Kalikamaru woke up earlier than everyone else to go to the Hokage Tower. Why you ask? She wanted to go retrive the keys to her mansion. When she burned down the village, she didn't want to rid the only remains of her family.
Going up and around the many twists of the Tower, she reached the door to office of the current and all hokage. She knocks on the door hard and loudly.
"Come in." comes the voice from the other side of the door.
This is the line.
The elderly hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, sat in his office during the wee hours of the morning. Suddenly, there was loud rapping on the door and he jumped. Regaining his posture before somebody saw the bewildered hokage, he replied. "Come in."
The door opened to reveal none other than Namikaze-Uzumaki Kalikamaru who walked into the room and plopped down in one of the chairs. Hiruzen was surprised.
"What is it, Kalikamaru?" he asked. The younger being in the office didn't reply but looked at him with icy blue eyes that could look through you. She held out her hand.
"I want my parents' belongings. All of them." she said. Sarutobi sighed but obliged anyway. He rose from his seat and walked over to a picture of himself. Removing the picture, he revealed a safe with the words child of the morning sun etched onto it. He held it out to her as she stood up. She took the safe from him and gave him a questioning look.
"Only Namikaze and Uzumaki blood can open it. There are two seals; An Uzumaki one and A Namikaze one." he stated sadly.
She nodded and bowed. "Sankyu." she said before she left. He sighed again. 'Where did I go wrong Minato?' he thought looking at the Hokage Mountain through the window. 'Your poor girl is hell bent on not returning.'
(Back At The Hotel)
Everyone was up and active. Deidara, Kisame, Madara, and Hidan were locked into a game of Mario Kart, Konan and Pein were making breakfast, the Uchiha brothers were reminiscing on the past, Zetsu was playing cards with himself, Sasori was creating another puppet, and Kakuzu was counting the money... again. All in all, everyone was happy and present. All except one 12 year old red head. Everyone was so absorb into what they were doing that when Kalika slammed the door open out of anger, nobody made a sound. That game was paused, the Uchiha brothers weren't talking, Sasori and Kakuzu stopped their actions, Zetsu dropped his cards, and the water wasn't running in the sink. The only noise was the crackling from the pot on the stove.
Konan, seeing the look of dispair on her niece's face, ran over to Kalika and grasped her into a hug. "What's wrong Kali-chan?"
"He knew." was the only reply. Looking over to door that closed after being thrown open, everyone noticed the small safe on the ground. Deidara slowly rose from his spot on the floor and made his way over to the door where he picked up the box.
"What do you mean he knew, Kali-chan, un?" Deidara asked.
"That senile old man knew." Kalika's wavering voice said. They all looked at her and notice that silent sobs were racking Kalika's small body. She was crying. She never cried. "He knew who my parents where and never bothered to tell me!" Konan let go of the ground and Kalika broke down. She fell onto her knees and wept into her hands. "I asked, I begged, I did everything I could to make him tell me. But every time, he said he didn't know." she said between sobs.
Deidara took a scroll out of the safe. "Can I look Kali-chan?" he asked. Kalika nodded as he opened the unraveled the open scroll. He started to read aloud.
Greetings Kalikamaru. My name is Minato Namikaze, your father. Me and your mother think you so cute! You have her hair and my eyes and I bet your going to adapt your mother's tomboyish nature too. I don't know if its karma or me and your mom have bad timing because on the day of your birth, October 10, the Kyuubi no Yoko started to attack. I'm truly sorry me and your mother cannot watch you grow up and protect you.
Your mother's name is Kushina Uzumaki, the Red Death. I'm sorry to say but she died giving birth to you because we didn't have any skilled medical ninja in the village. Now, don't think for a second that I hate you. I love you with all my heart and I know you mother does because she had the option to either kill you to live or die bringing you into this world. Without a second thought, she said she would give up her life any day for you.
There's a seal at the bottom of this scroll that holds the keys to the Namikaze mansion, your mothers swords, a scroll on the Harishin, and a few pictures of you, your mother, And I. I have to seal the Kyuubi into you so please, use this power for good. But, my dying wish is for you to be treated as a hero. If by any means necessary my wishes are not met, you have all rights to destroy the village. Also in the seal below, there is a scroll where you can seal the mansion. I know, awesome right?
Well I have to go kick some furry ass right now so I'll leave this scroll with Sarutobi. He knows this secret and if you ask, he WILL tell you. Enjoy life my child.
With all the love in the world,
Minato Namikaze
(P.S. Your name means 'Child Of The Morning Sun', just so you know.)
(P.S.S. Enjoy the wonders of ramen.)
(P.S.S.S. There is plenty of food in the mansion.)
(P.S.S.S.S. I kind of ate all the ramen.)
Deidara looked over to the sobbing girl and he gasped. Everyone was so wrapped up in the letter, they didn't notice that Kalika was unconsciously tapping into Kyuubi's chakra.
"Kalika, stop!" Konan yelled but her attempts where futile. Every time she got close, the Kyuubi's chakra would burn her. Kalikamaru stood and the red chakra disappeared. But there were visible changes. Her nails where longer, her K9 became fangs, and her hair became wild. All of a sudden, she changed back to her normal form and passed out.
(Timeskip – A Month Later)
Currently in the Leaf, everyone was heading towards the the arena where the Chunin Exams would be held. Shop owners putting up signs that said 'Gone to the Chunin Exams' and such for indicators.
Most people were excited to see the fight between their Uchiha and the Hyuuga branch member. Nobody really believe Kalikamaru when she said she was the daughter of their late 4th Hokage.
Said girl was currently on her way towards the arena like everyone else along with her fellow Akatsuki members. Well, they got there via shushin so when they appeared everyone in the competitors box jumped. Kalika stayed while everyone else when to sit down, all with their hoods up.
(With Team 7)
Sakura was getting worried. 'Where is Sasuke-kun? He wasn't at practice for the pass month and he's not at his house! Maybe that bitch Kalikamaru kidnapped him.' she thought as she, Sai, and Kakashi walked towards the arena where the final matches of the Chunin were going to be held. 'I just hope nothing happened to him.'
As the team arrived, the third hokage stood in the center of the arena and began to speak so the quickly rushed to their seats.
"Thank you all for coming to see our genin compete. I hope you all enjoy yourselves." he said before disappearing. Genma walked down to the center of the arena.
"Will Subaku no Gaara and Subaku no Temari please come down to the arena?" he asked but Temari put her hand up.
"I forfeit." she said. Gaara was pissed. Someone stopped im form shedding blood. But then he thought about it, that was he sister. So he let it pass.
"Due to somebody forfeiting, Subaku no Gaara is winner." Genma said as people started to boo. "Okay, will Hyuuga Neji and Namikaze-Uzumaki Kalikamaru please come down to the arena?"
Yet again people started to boo. Back up in the stands, Kalika rolled her eyes. "Dumb assholes." she said and before she when down, Sasuke stopped her. "What is it?"
"Since you may be killed out there, I just want to say thank you." Sasuke mumbled. She smiled.
"I may get killed? Please, did you see what I did to your brother?" she whispered back. They both chuckled but the moment was broke when Neji spoke up.
"Get down here weakling." he said in his all high and mighty tone. Kalika rolled her eyes again and jumped down to the center of the arena.
"Hey Hyuuga, pull that stick out your ass so you don't hurt yourself while you fight." Kalika teased but she didn't get the reaction she wanted because Neji smirked.
"Begin." Genma said before he backed up.
"What ya' smirking 'bout Hyuuga?" Kalika asked smirking herself.
"I'm smirking because it is your destiny to lose to me." He said pulling out a kunai. Kalika sighed and started to dig around in her weapons pouch. Neji tensed thinking it was a weapon, but when she pulled out her Ipod, he relaxed. "What game are you playing?" he asked as she put the headphones in her ears.
"Okaa-san, if you can hear me, this is for you." she whispered before she started singing to the lyrics.
mune ni daku kimi eno kotoba
itsuka tsutaetai na
As she sung, she started to glow a light red. The crowd gasped. "She's using the Kyuubi's power!" But the glow retracted as she drew her mother's swords and this time Neji gasped.
They swords where beautiful. They were red and gold and they shimmered in the light giving off a mysterious air.
koboreru binetsu, takanaru kodou
hajimari wa wakaranai kedo
ichido kidzuita, kesenai omoi
uso niwa mou dekinai kara
The swords started to glow and Kalika's voice became louder and more beautiful.
deaeta no ga arifureta guuzen dato shitemo
tokubetsu na imi wo kanjiteru
kimi no soba ni irareru koto wo
itsumo kamisama ni kansha desu
mayoi no nai kimi no yokogao
zutto nagameteitai
kimi to futari sugosu jikan ga
yuruginai chikara wo kureru yo
fui ni ukabu kimi eno kotoba
itsuka tsutaetai na
wazuka ni fureru atatakai yubi
yasashii daishi, sore dake de
yume no tsudzuki wo miteiru you na
fushigi na kimochi ni nareru yo
moshimo itsu no hi ka otagai wo miushinattemo
mata nando demo meguriaeru
kimi no taisetsu na omoide ni
douka watashi mo imasu you ni
mita koto nai kimi no sekai wo
motto wakete hoshii
kimi ga negau koto no subete wo
amasu koto naku kanaetei yo
shinjirareru kimi no tame nara
nanni demo kawareru
Kalika stopped glowing but she ran after Neji at a fast speed. She kicked him in the air and cut him with the swords before he hit the ground. When the next beat kicked in, she started to dance. The more she danced, the more hit Neji.
sore wa iromeku hana no youni
tooku sakihokoru monogatari
kesshite kie wa shinai neiro ga
kaze ni nosete hibiku
kimi to futari sugosu jikan ga
yuruginai chikara wo kureru yo
inori komeru kimi eno kotoba
fukaku todoku you ni
When the beat ended, Neji was on the ground, blood leaking from the many cuts on his body, unconscious.
"For you mother." she said aloud so everyone heard her. The girls (except Sakura who was pissed she couldn't sing like that) where in tears. She contributed that song using her mothers blades. It was heart warming and plus her voice was heavenly.
"Winner: Kalikamaru Namikaze-Uzumaki!" Genma cheered and the crowd started a full blown cheer. Kalika smirked.
"Actually Neji, it was your destiny to lose to me." she said to the unconscious form before she shushined back to the stands. When she got up there, she and Sasuke bumped fists, smirking. Sakura stomped over to Kalika and grabbed her by her shirt.
"What did you do with my Sasuke-kun for the past month?" she shrieked. Kalikamaru yanked Sakura's hand from her shirt and shrugged.
"I didn't do anything to Sasuke. How about you ask him?" Sakura walked over to Sasuke.
"So, where have you been Sasuke-kun?" she asked him in a disgustingly sweet voice that could make even the toughest ninja barf.
"I've been training with Kalika for this past month." Sasuke said.
Sakura turned towards Kalika and attempted to punch her but Kalika caught her arm, bent behind her back, and chopped her neck and Sakura fell unconscious.
"She is so annoying." Kalika and Sasuke said simultaneously. Once the noise settled, Genma stood in the center once again.
"Will Shino Aburame and Subaku no Kankuro please come to the arena.?" Genma said. Kankuro was panicing.
'This Aburame guy's bugs will cancel out my puppets. I can always knock him unconscious.' He was brought out of his thoughts when Gaara growled.
"You better go Kankuro." Gaara threatened. Without a second thought, Kankuro hopped up and ran down to the arena.
Shino was studying his enemy. 'From what I remember, he's a puppet user. I can cut his puppet strings with my bugs.' he thought.
'Oh well, here goes nothing.' they both thought.
"Begin!" Genma called.
This is the line.
Twinkle: So what do you think? Is it a good chapter like I hope it is? Well, review!
