Sorry it took so long. I was busy during spring break. Anyways… here you go!
Chapter 6
Somewhere in the forest outside the village…
"Hey Sasuke-teme were did they go…?" whispered Naruto behind Sasuke.
"Shutup dobe… right there." Sasuke pointed at a clearing were the group of mysterious people was.
As they got closer they could hear their conversation.
"What the hell were you thinking Gakuto!?" one tall cloaked figure asked. Clearly a man.
"You know that move is forbidden, even more to human subjects!" a cloaked female included.
The man that they were yelling at was lying on his back with Kagome next to him. He looked unconscious but was really resting. Finally he spoke.
"If your quiet done… Sasuke Uchiha…and the Nine-Tailed Fox Naruto Uzumaki are here…" he said getting into a relaxed positioned.
"Shit!!" the two ninja thought.
"Get out of there you two or I'll rip your throats out." Gakuto growled.
The two nervous ninja came out but not how Gakuto expected… Or anyone for that matter…
Sasuke and Naruto had scrunched up faces and a strange smell of piss on them. Did they… A skunk came from the bushes and scurried off.
They started walking toward them.
Serikuna and Karakuto moved in front of them and immediately grabbed him and Naruto by the scarf of there shirts and pushed them against a tree. They kept what little distance that was possible.
"Hey let me go you oversized ape!" Naruto yelled at Karakuto.
"Hahaha! Hey Gakuto you know who this runt reminds me of?" Karakuto laughed.
"No…" Gakuto began. Then it hit him.
"Seri!!" They said at the same time, smirking at her. Serikuna turned red with anger and embarrassment under her mask.
"I was only 1,674 years old dumbassess!" Serikuna yelled reaching for whatever was close at hand. To bad for Sasuke that he was right in her palm.
Serikuna threw Sasuke toward Karakuto and send all three flying into the air.
Serikuna then sat down next to Gakuto and smacked him beside the head.
"Hey Seri I'm still recovering!" Gakuto smiled. She smirked under her mask.
"Ow! What the fuck was that for!?" Karakuto yelled getting up.
"I told you not to mention my childhood again. Especially in front of humans!" Serikuna yelled.
"Son of a… What the hell was that for?!" Sasuke yelled also getting up with Naruto limping behind him.
"I was pissed off and I needed to cool off you emo-bastard!" Serikuna shouted back.
"Why do you were a mask are you afraid the world will see your hideous face?!" Sasuke yelled reaching for her mask.
"It's to keep people from going gaga over me when I take it off fucker!" She pushed him off.
"Yeah and I go around hiding myself from the world because I'm so handsome!"
"Emo-bastard"
"Crazy bipolar bitch"
"Oh fuck…" Karakuto cursed.
"Oh hells no! You did not just call me a female dog!"
"Crazy… bipolar…bitch…" Sasuke emphasized.
Serikuna reached again for the nearest thing again and unfortunately grabbed Karakuto.
She flung him toward Sasuke but before Karakuto hit him he dodged and was behind Serikuna in 1 second flat. He reached for her mask and pulled it half way off.
Serikuna suddenly poofed and disappeared.
"Shadow clone?" Sasuke thought. He felt something creeping behind his back.
He turned his head around and saw Serikuna reaching for his neck.
She connected her hand with his neck and squeezed.
He put both of his hands on her hand and tried to break free. Before Sasuke could sidekick her she let him go.
She hunched over and grabbed her head with one hand.
"Serikuna, what's wrong?" Kagome asked getting up and started moving toward her.
"Stay away…" Serikuna hit the ground on her knees. Karakuto moved up to her and stop just a few feet away.
"Karakuto, why don't you help her?!" Kagome yelled.
"It's out of my hands. It's a sort of condition she has…" Karakuto knelt down.
"Seri you know that you can't do any sudden movements at this moment." He laid her down on the ground under a trees shade. "So just relax and take off your mask and go to sleep." His comment was more like a question asking if she could take her mask off.
Serikuna nodded and fell asleep under the shade of the big tree. Karakuto took her mask off but it was still very difficult to see her face because of her white hair with light blue highlights.
"Hey Gakuto have you ever seen Serikuna's face?" Karakuto asked looking at Serikuna's sleeping form.
"No. I've heard anyone who has never lived to tell so don't trick me into…Hey get away from there!" Gakuto looked at Naruto who was getting ever so close to Serikuna.
"I just want to see what she looks like." He laughed nervously.
"What are you stupid?!" Gakuto got up.
"Hey no need to fight boys." Kagome got between them.
"Fine" they both said.
"Hey Gakuto how old are you?" Kagome looked at him.
"4,286 in human years. But in my world I'm just a 'teen'." Gakuto smiled.
"Your still young kid compared to Serikuna and me!" Karakuto smirked.
"How old are you two?" Sasuke asked surprising everyone that he spoke.
"Seri is 5,623 and I'm nearly 8,000 years old." He pointed at himself.
"Damn!! You don't sound old though." Naruto looked him.
"Kid, I think I'm going to like you." Karakuto grinned.
"What do you look like under that mask?" Naruto asked trying to peer inside his mask.
Karakuto grinned and took his mask off and removed his hood.
What the removed mask revealed was a handsome man that looked like he was in his mid-30. He had a square chin and green eyes. He had a small nose for a person his size and white hair that went down to his lower back. The thing that made it more mysterious about Karakuto was the giant scar going down his right eye and ended on the end of his left cheek.
If Karakuto had a son Gakuto would be it. Gakuto looked the same except he had a normal sized nose, no scar, normal chin, and white hair that went down to half-way of his back.
"For a person that's so old you look like your 35!" Naruto exclaimed.
"Yeah but not all mystics live as long as us. We have a choice when we are born. We either live forever and live without love or a family, or live for around 15,000 to 20,000 years old. We are the last of our kind. We are the last mystics." Karakuto saddened.
"So what did you pick?" Naruto asked.
"I chose to live a 'normal' mystic life." Karakuto smiled. "No one wants to live forever and see the horrors of humanity unleash." Karakuto finished.
"So how long did they choose?" Sasuke asked.
"I don't know, none of us know what we chose until we tell each other." Karakuto said.
"So enough with that bit of info now lets get to the real problem." Kagome turned to face Gakuto.
"What?" He said innocently.
"What were you doing at the Hero's Memorial?" Kagome asked.
Gakuto was silent for a moment and then answered.
"One of my friends name is engraved on it." Gakuto said.
"Who?" they all asked.
Gakuto pointed at Naruto.
"His dad." Gakuto breathed out.
