These Memories.
Naruto is at the Ramen shop, eating out with Hinata and Kai, Naruto looks over to Kai as he notices Kai is swirling his noodles and isn't eating it, "What's up Kai? Not eating?" Naruto says as he eats away his noodles, Hinata looks over to Kai as she also notices he isn't eating, "Yeah...um..." Kai doesn't know what to say to Naruto as he looks down at his noodles kind of tired, Kai can't wipe away the feeling that this is so awkward, Kai looks to Naruto and tells him, "I really shouldn't be eating this." Kai kind of cringes at the idea of even saying this, as he was raised to respect and to be polite he saw this as breaking that code of conduct, "Why?" Naruto asks Kai as he again eats away, Kai leans fore-ward on the counter and refuses to tell Naruto why he isn't suppose to be eating Ramen, normally, for anyone, it's okay and at some point good to eat Ramen, but it was different for Kai and his clan since they heavily relay on Chakra and fast eye to hand coordination, and the clan saw Ramen as being distracting, the clan classed this as a secret which is why Kai and the others cannot tell anyone, even if it was kept a secret. Hinata attempts to assure Kai that the Ramen won't mess with his head, Kai turns to Hinata with a questionable expression, did she know? "The hell? How did she know? Wait! Does she even know?" Kai thinks to himself as he looks at Hinata as his heart races with excitement? Kai is losing himself at the moment and doesn't know what he should be doing, Kai places his left and right hand on the bowl full of Ramen and pushes it across the counter till it reaches Naruto, "You have it." Kai tells Naruto as he sits up straight with his elbows on the counter and buries his nose and mouth in his hands, Naruto starts eating away on his bowl as Hinata carries on eating hers, "This thing is fuckin' with ya isn't it?" Kai's inner-self reveals and asks Kai, "Piss off, nothing is wrong with me or that Ramen." Kai thinks to himself and tells his inner-self, "If that's true, than you would of EATEN the Ramen, instead you passed it to the village idiot!" Kai's inner-self tells Kai as Kai looks over to Naruto who has the bowl in the air and downing it like no tomorrow, "You've got a point." Kai thinks and tells his inner-self as a sweat drop appears on Kai's fore-head, right side. After the three are finished at the Ramen shop they walk outside of the shop and Naruto stretches abit as he was sitting down for way to long unlike Hinata and Kai, they are use to it, the three walk around and chat about how their night was, Naruto looks over at Kai, who is walking beside Hinata and he asks Kai, "Kai, what's your favourite book?" Kai looks over at Naruto and thinks for a moment, Kai than looks ahead and replies to Naruto's question, "Un-revealed Mysteries. Blue Crystal – The Legend. And, The Four Legends." Naruto and Hinata both look at Kai with a shocked and surprised expression, their jaws almost falling to the floor mouth open, Kai chuckles as he smiles. The three books Kai just mentioned are usually just made up stories, however they were said to be written by archaeologists who apparently had met all Five Legends, and witnessed their power, the First Legend is a powerful Shinobi, she is the least powerful Legend that there is within the Category, the Second Legend is also a female, she is said to both be powerful in strength and has high knowledge of Taijutsu, the Third Legend is a male, who is an expert in weapons, he specializes within swords, Knives, and anything that can be used within combat, he has a high skill knowledge of Ninjutsu, the Fourth Legend is a mystery however, because the archaeologists has never found the Fourth Legend, and the Three refused to talk about the Legend. And finally, the Blue Crystal Legend, he is far from anyone of the other Legends, he is said to be weaker than the Four Legends, but apparently his strength cannot be matched, even by two Hokage's, he's still very powerful, mostly all assumed that the Blue Crystal is part of the Four Legends, and maybe he is the one missing from the crew, however the group, Four Legends, all assured Blue Crystal was never in the group. Kai spent hours and hours repeatedly talking about the Legends to Naruto and Hinata, Naruto was more than interested in the whole thing, "So how do they know that Blue Crystal isn't in the group?" Naruto asked Kai, "Hey, I don't know Naruto, but apparently he was just never ever part of the group, so I believe them, but if that is so, where the hell did Blue Crystal come from?" Kai says to Naruto, Hinata cuts in as she finds a chance, slightly stuttering, "W-why is he c-called Blue C-Crystal?" Hinata asks Kai, Kai turns to Hinata and all three are sitting under a tree with their backs resting on the tree trunk, "Because, his eyes are said to be very bright blue and crystal clear, and if you look closely, you can see in his eyes crystal shapes, and sometimes even reflections." Kai tells Hinata, Hinata rests herself on Naruto as both of her arms are around him. Naruto notices a few things with Kai, and asks Kai as he holds onto Hinata, "Kai, where's your headband?" Kai stops zoning out and looks at Naruto, "What?" Kai replies to Naruto in confusion, "Well, where's your headband? Surely you must have one that tells where you are from?" Naruto asks again, Kai remembers telling Naruto about this last time as they were in the pub just after Kiba left, Kai is wandering why is Naruto asking him again, Kai looks at the ground as he changes his sitting pose, Kai kneels on the ground instead of sitting, Kai clears his throat and than tells Naruto as he is looking at the ground, "We don't have a village symbol, we only have a camp within a civilian village, I told you this before." Kai once again tells Naruto, "So, no headband?" Naruto asks Kai, Kai gets violent flash backs of a muscled figure strapping down Kai to a flat stone and than dipping in a tool in boiling hot water, and than walking over to Kai as the figure raised the tool in the air to show Kai, Kai remembers vividly struggling and crying out for the figure to stop, than vividly, Kai remembers the figure pressing the tool's end that was dipped in water, to Kai's chest, and Kai screaming out in pain and crying as tears quickly filled his eyes. As the violent flashbacks came to Kai, Kai didn't notice that tears was rolling down from his eyes to his cheeks instantly, "Kai?" Hinata says as she and Naruto notice the tear drops coming from Kai, Kai quickly gets himself in check and stops zoning out, Kai than looks ahead of himself and wipes his tears away and looks over to Hinata and Naruto and pretends to smiles as he clears his throat and stands up and tells Naruto and Hinata, "R-Right, I'm o-off to the c-compound now, they need me back there q-quickly as p-possible, it's been n-nice to hang out with you guys, lets do it again s-sometime." Kai attempts to make himself sound coolly relaxed and happy, it only failed as Hinata and Naruto both heard Kai's voice cracking in sadness, and Kai couldn't even say his words without stuttering at one point, Kai walks off as he shakes his head slowly trying to let the memories pass.
Sorry if this seemed to be short, I tried to put as much effort in as possible and I am also stuck with busyness so I do apologise, sincerely, thank you for reading!
