Wellllll...a I am trying to go on as fast as I can. This chapter will be the last of their child hood. Oh, and in my story, Kagome will NOT be the reincarnation of Kikyo, but just someone who looks similar to her.
She is not born with the Shikon no Tama, and is born with the powers of a priestess which is very rare in the Naruto world, making her very special.
Sooo...I basically explained her character a little better, so you won't be confused. No, the rest of the chapters will not be as boring as these twelve chapters.
Anyways, enjoy the story!
Kagome's POV
It has been a month since Kakashi and I have left the hospital, and I was sulking through the streets of Konoha. People say Kakashi and I have been acting cold lately.
Three weeks ago, we were reccomenede to be in ANBU by the third hokage and my dad. We were always paired as a team whenever we go on missions. Since that incident, we lacked sympathy. Gai always tried to find a way to get us to laugh, but it never works. If only he knew how much it hurts.
"Kagome!" A purple haired friend of mine ran up to me.
"What do you want Anko?" I asked coldly
"I...err...was wondering if you want to go to the stake house in an hour with Kurenai, Asuma, Gai, Kakashi, and me."
The only one who I rather talked to was Kakashi. "Hm... I'll think about it" I said , and walked away, leaving Anko speechless.
"Dont forget to wear something cute!" She called out. I frowned. This wasn't going to be easy.
Anko's POV
I wasn't really sure if it would work. Kakahsi finally agreed to do the surprise party, because I bugged him every single day. He wanted his best friend to be happy since she is the only one left on his team who hasn't died. The war was finally over, and Minato- sensei will be given the title 'Hokage' tomorrow.
During the war, Kakashi and Kagome became known as 'Konoha no Gin De~yuo' meaning Konoha's silver duo, due to the silver kunai they each had. When you put the two together, they are most feared. Even at their age, they could defeat 100 ANBU black obs within an hour.
"Anko!" I saw Kakashi motion at me to sit down next to him. I wonder what he wants. He usually never does this.
"What do you need?" I asked
"Is Kagome going?" He asked. Was it. My imagination, or is he turning pink at the name Kagome?
"She said 'I'll think about it'"
"Ah. I see." Kakashi got up, and walked away.
Kagome's POV
Something cute...do I have to? I sighed and slipped on an orange Tsunade-like shirt on, and blue pants. I tied my hair into a ponytail, and slipped some blue ninja shoes on. I glanced at the clock. Thirty minutes passed sin pice I was supposed to be there. Well I guess this is another way to remember Obito by. I gently brushed my hand on the necklace Obito gave me. I miss him.
I walked down the streets towards the steak house. Opening the door, I was expecting to hear Obito to yell "YOU'RE LATE!"
Remembering that brought tears to my eyes, so I turned my heels and ran away. I could hear people calling my name, but I ignored them. This is terrible. I never felt so horrible in my life. The death of my comrades has mentally left a hole on my heart. I almost reached the forest when someone grabbed my wrist. I spun around, ready to knee the person in the stomach, but stopped. Kakashi. I quickly wrapped my arms around him, and pulled him closer to me. We stayed like that for a while until Kakashi spoke up.
"We should go back. They're waiting for us."
I nodded, and held his hand until we got there. I broke away from him as the door slid open, startling me.
"Great! You're here! Come on!" Kurenai dragged me to a seat in the middle of hers and Kakashi's. We talked and laughed until Someone with a gigantic cake appeared.
"Why the hell is there a cake five feet tall here?!" I asked
"Did you forget?" Kurenai asked me
"Huh? Forget what?"
"She did" Asuma sighed
"What did I forget?!"
"Happy birthday" Kakashi said, handing me a crudely wrapped box. I facepalmed myself. Everyone rememberd my birthday except me. Within seconds a pile of presents were stacked up on the table in front of me.
"Wha-guys you'd di-" I began
"You are our friend, but you haven't said a word to us since the third great ninja war, and this is the only way we could talk to you." Anko said.
I felt guilty right then. "I-I'm sorry. I just..." Tears began to form on the bottom of my eyes. "Excuse me" I said as I stood up. I walked out the door, and sat down leaning next to the nearest tree. I made my decision right then. The day after the Hokage ceremony. Yes. That was the day.
"Kagome..." A figure i recognized as Kakashi sat down next to me.
"Why is it always you?" I asked
"What? I cant help my twin?" He teased, and I elbowed him gently. "Ow" he playfully whined. We both laughed, and I laid my head on his shoulders.
"Hey"
"Hm?" I looked up
"Why don't you open that" he said, motioning to the present he gave me.
"You're a terrible wrapper" I said, laughing. I tore away the paper, and started to open the box slowly. Inside, there was an orange crystal heart. My eyes softened as I hugged my best friend.
"Arigatō"
"Kagome-nee san!" My head perked up to the sound of Itachi's voice.
"Ah! Itachi!" I hugged him as he got closer. "Who invited you?"
"Erm..." He poured, trying to remember. He was so cute. "Kurenai-nee san" he gave me his smile that could wipe away any regrets for about a minute.
"Hey, do you want cake?" I asked.
His head snapped up to the word 'cake'. "Come on" I said, leading him into the steak house. "You too Kakashi" Kakashi gave me a look that says stop-treating-me-like-a-child. I cut a peice of cake out, put it in a plate, and gave it to Itachi who happily stuffed it in his mouth.
I finished spearing a slice of cake, and set the plate down. Just as I was about to get up to leave, Asuma threw a present at me which I easily caught.
"Aren't you supposed to open your presents first?" He asked.
"I suppose so" I sighed, opening the present he threw at me. There was a new set of shurikens in there. "I'm guessing that was from you?" I asked Asuma. He just nodded.
"Here's mine" Kurenai handed me a box that was wrapped in a violet wrapping paper. I tore it open, and found a new pair of ninja shoes. I hugged her and gave her a thanks before opening Gai's. He couldn't come because he had training to do. Figures. His had a-
"AHH!" I yelled, dropping the box.
"What? What's wrong?!" Everyone asked me
I pointed a shaky finger towards the box. "I-Its t-that"
They all looked in there, and retreated quickly with and 'ugh'
Kurenai nodded, rubbing her eyes. "Yeah. I see why you were scared"
"Look. There's a note" Anko said, picking it up. I shaw her arms shaking. Poor girl. She opened it and read it out loud.
"My dear spring blossom, I hope we can be twins too"
I furrowed my eyebrowes and wrinkled my nose. "Um...no." I said looking at Gai's present again. It was a very, very bright hot pink jumpsuit like Gai's. Kicking the box to the side, I took Anko's present, and opened it. It had a set of senbon needles in it which was decorated in beautifully carved designs.
"Thanks" I smiled and hugged her.
"Wow. Getting a hug from Cold-blooded Kagome. Thats a first" she laughed
"I'm going home" I announced, gathering to gifts except Gai's. "Thanks for everything!" I added when I was out the door.
"Do you want me to help you carry that?" Kakashi asked, tagging along with me.
"Na-aah!" I exclaimed as a Kakashi's crystal heart box fell with it in there. Kakashi quickly caught it.
"Yeah you do." He said stubbornly. I gave him a mischievous grin.
"Hold out your hand" I ordered
"Huh?" It should be quite obvious what I was going to do. Stupid. I dumped the presents in his arm, and he staggered around, trying to regain his balance.
"How do you carry this?" He strained.
"How are you my twin?" I teased
"Urmph" Kakashi grunted
-?-
"Tadima!" I yelled once I reached my house. Kakashi set the stack down and cracked his knuckles.
"Thanks!" I gave him a closed eye smile.
"You..." He hesitated
"I..." I pushed
"Lightened up a bit..."
Realzairon smacked my face. I handn't realized it. Maybe all I needed to do was hang out with my friends, but I never gave them the time of day. I smiled sadly to myself. It will be hard now to leave...
"Ja ne!" Kakashi said as he headed off.
My dad went to greet me, and we were then at the table talking things over.
"Dad...I need you to do me a favor..."
He looked at me with concern, knowing how serious I was.
"After the Hokage ceremony..."
-?-
Minato's POV
Ah...I see...
"So will you allow me?" Kagome asked me.
"Sure" I replied
She gave me a soft smile, and headed to the room. Kushina then came out the kitchen.
"What did she want?" She asked
I explained everything.
-?-
Kagome's POV
"I SAID WAKE UP-TTEBANE!" I got smacked multiple times with a pillow.
"Okay, okay, I'm up" I said, and quickly dressed. Today was dad's ceremony, and I was excited. I ran out to the hokage tower to see my dad receiving the hokage hat. He had a cape with trims like fire on the bottom, and on the back, it said 'Yondaime Hokage'
Someone tapped my shoulder, and I turned around to see who it was. Kakashi. He close eye smiled and I did the same. We both looked up and say my dad putting on the Hokage's hat. He lowered his face, not allowing us to see his face, and then he lifted it up, revealing a sparkling blue eye. He walked for the side where we could clearly see him, and he took the Hokage hat off. As that happened, cheers erupted from the crowd.
-?-
"The Hoakge wants to see you." A Jōnin ninja said.
I sprinted to the Hokage's office, and opened the door, revealing my dad sitting at the desk.
"Are you sure?" He asked me
"Absolutely" I replied confidently.
"Then you may proceed"
I slipped on my ANBU mask and jumped out the window like Anko usually does. One word went through my mind. Sayonara...Konoha.
Kakashi's POV
I ANBU ninjas shouting, and running to the Hokage's office, so I followed them.
"An ANBU ninja has gone rogue" Minato-sensei said in a serious tone.
"What?" There were mutters across the room. "Who would do this?"
"I have one name..."
Silence.
"Uzumaki Kagome" he said sadly
'What?! No way...' I thought.
"Your mission is to hunt her down..."
Don't say it. Don't say it.
"And kill her before she gives away any information"
A small tear pricked at my face.
"Kakashi..."
I looked up to see a grieving Yondaime Hokage.
"You are the only one who can do this."
Dizziness hit me with a bang. Kill Kagome? Why?
"The others will help chase her down, and after that, you are on your own. She left just minutes ago, and shouldn't be that far. Scatter."
We disappeared into the forest. I noticed Kagome's ANBU mask among us. Apparently the other ANBU noticed it too. Five charged at her, only to be blown away by her wind shuriken. This time, ten tried to capture her.
"Rasengan!"
All ten were hit by the spiraling blue orb. One, who I recognized as Tenzō, appeared behind Kagome, and grabbed her arms, restraining her from any movement. Before I made chidori, an image or Rin plastered in front of my eyes. I noticed Kagome's mask was blown off by an impact from Suiton. Her eyes had a look of sadness in them as I gathered chakra into my hand.
She was now hanging from Mokuton in a cross position. It was my mission I had to. It was ordered her dad himself. I stopped an inch before piercing her heart as a tear slid down my face. I couldn't do it. Another ANBU appeared behind me, and pushed me, driving chidori into Kagome's chest, killing her.
"Ka...ka...shi..." Her eyes were wide, and had tears streaming down her face. Her face. They were too painful to look at. Tenzō released Mokuton, and Kagome was sliding to the ground. That didn't happen. I took out my arm, and caught her. This was just like what happened to Rin. Now Kagome...I would never se her sparkling blue eyes again. Her laugh...her smile...
Holding her in my arms, I carried her back to Konoha. There, I had a small funeral with Kurenai, Anko, Asuma, and Gai, not wanting anyone to think we were remembering a traitor. Every day, I sat by her grave thinking of our memories that we had shared over the past 12 years. Thinking of that made me sad, and five hours later, there would be a puddle up near me, my eyes would be puffy, and my nose would be red.
How stupid was I?
I never admitted it, but...but...I loved her.
No hate✋
This story will probably keep going on for a long while.
Soooo, I hope you liked it, even though it was terrible.
I really wanted to finish their childhood, and here I am! Done with it!
The next chapter will have a time skip, to when Naruto is 12.
It's going to be much longer (I think)
Hopefully it will be more exciting, so yeah.
