"Why are you suddenly friends with someone you barely know? You both just met… what? Less than a week ago? What do you think you are doing?"Jiro came to a sudden halt, causing Kakashi's lengthy strides to cease as well. He turned around to face Kakashi, a gentle chuckle escaping his lips, a reaction Kakashi hadn't anticipated from his words."Why do you care who I am friends with? I didn't stop you from walking around with the stranger, did I?" Jiro flicked his golden hair."Stranger? Walk? What are you talking about? You were the one who encouraged me to accept his proposal as my tutor. It has nothing to do with friendship." Kakashi's arms were outstretched, pleading their innocence.As Kakashi stood there, his words echoed in the hallway, emphasizing the confusion that enveloped the situation. Kakashi's outstretched arms symbolized his sincerity, a representation of his confusion and need to be understood. "It is not just training now, is it? I saw you and Jay talking about me the
“Why did you tell me not to inform anyone about what happened here?” Kakashi looked around like he was in a dream world. His hand found the back of his head; his head was under trial for a crime worthy of being cut off, why else would he feel so much hammering?“Hey, are you all right?” Tanya moved closer to Kakashi who looked like an alien who just found himself in another world. Kakashi looked at Tanya once, trying to fight the fog that covered his vision. “What happened?”“You were asking about the Annual Globe and then… that was it, you fell into an excruciating pain? What happened? It was sudden.” Tanya stooped her head lower to read Kakashi’s face.“Ouch,” Kakashi winced as he raised his back from direct contact with the floor.“Careful,” Tanya held him with caution as he sat beside her on the platform. The dust expertly disguised inside the orange hair of Kakashi. The unwanted particles settling among the millions of strands on his head. Unfortunately for them, Kakashi’s han
Yes. It felt really different now. He would happily erase his mind off every thing he had just witnessed. He took a deep breath. The spaces were crowded, the rooms must have been flushed out with some information. Students were never always so willing to be outside. Although he was thankful for the dissipation of the cold he felt, he worried over the things that may happen around with no knowledge he has of.The scattered groups that saturated his path made it harder for his eyes to sight the whereabouts of his friends. His eyes listened and brought into focus Jiro, “Not him.” He sneered. He engaged his eyes in continuous search, advancing forwards with his head higher than it should be. “Sorry,” Kakashi bumped into one of the students from behind.“YOU!” “What?” His lips left a gap, his pupils dilated. His head shuffled the same faces in a quickfire scan.“REMEMBER ME?” Their voices spoke at once in an echo, their feet crashing loudly at him like the marching of an army to war.
The evening went unpredictably turbulent. Kakashi’s mind reeling back to the conversation he had with Jiro. It wasn’t an apology still, but he was okay with coming to a truce. He already told the secret out to Tanya and he was almost at breaking point with a stranger. Well, technically. Jiro was not the best person out there and while that’s true for him, same can be said for everyone. Jiro isn’t perfect, Daichi definitely isn’t perfect. Jay has his down times, and Zoa, mm, Zoa. Brings his mind back to that, Zoa. ‘How am I going to do this with Tanya not being aggrieve? Why don’t I just act like nothing happened? You fool! Women don’t like that. But then what do I do? Wait, how do you even know about what women like or don’t like?’“Why are you smiling?” Zoa appeared out of nowhere.“Wait--what? Wh--um, smile? I wasn’t smiling. You are the one… how did you even get here? What are you doing here? I mean, I want you to be here, but…” Kakashi blew out air, resigning to his embarrassme
Navigating through the riotous crowd was a herculean task for Kakashi and Jay. Hanging on to the thread of each other's fingers, they dragged themselves to a respectable distance from where the murderer was subjected to his fate. “How did we even get here?” Jay asked, stretching to see what everyone gathered in his front to also see. “We walked right through everyone, that is how,” Kakashi replied with sarcasm that clearly Jay wasn’t in the mood for.“Man, shut up. I think I see something” Jay announced excitedly. “Oh, oh. This doesn’t look good.” Jay struggled to find space to turn around. “Can you just move?! Please!” Jay shouted his frustration fighting to talk to his friend. Frustration was never going to solve the problem, the students didn’t yield to the ‘scream’ he thought was let out well enough. “Ugh!” Jay stomped his foot on the floor.“Hey, watch it.” One of the gathered students warned Jay.Jay looked at him from head to toe, her face wasn’t familiar. “How may I help y
Jiro’s imprisonment was felt by nature itself. Students watched as lightning rolled the red carpet for thunderstorms to steal the show. It was a roar like no other. The electric messengers touched the earth with their hands, showing their anger in the color of their appearance. The clouds gathered, shielding the direction from whence the next strike would come. The lightning gave a hint, but it was always followed instantaneously by the raging storm. Soon, lightning became the closest form of light in the heavens. It was far from night time yet, the atmosphere darkened with tears borne out of its anger falling. What looked like drops soon became torrents, and the birds hid in their nests - avoiding their flights from being canceled. “Hey!” Kakashi gripped the arm of the new commander as he walked by with urgent strides, forcing his body to turn around abruptly.“Do I know you? I need to be somewhere now, and I have to assure you that now is not the time to play around.” Kokohashi ai
Kakashi opened his eyes to the face of Suke, causing him to flinch. "We need to continue our training," Suke's hands stood on their heels on the table.Kakashi searched around for nothing in particular. His breath was sharp and loud."Can you hear me?" Suke inquired calmly.Kakashi nodded in affirmation."So you are willing to continue your training?" Suke confirmed"Mm-hmm," Kakashi nodded."Good. I spoke to your friend too, we will continue privately. Same time, same spot." Suke stood up from the table."Wait, same time?" Kakashi overcame his shock, finding his voice for the first time."Yes. Any problem?" Suke stared at Kakashi."Didn't the soldier from the other day mention how it is forbidden to be out of our rooms by that time?"Suke chuckled softly, waiting for the incoming students to pass by before delivering his response."Look at me," Kakashi held his gaze, "All you have to do is come. Do not burden yourself with any other thing.""Hey!" Kakashi called out.Suke grunted, K
The buildings flashed past him in his opposite direction, quickly vanishing from his eye corners. His chest pounded with the fast beating of his heart, his feet floating on the ground and his hands paddling his run. Soon he became content with his world, his breath steadying on the run. The heartbeat that drummed his chest louder and louder now gave way to the only thing he could hear - his breath. His feet squeaked on the floor before coming to an abrupt end. He didn’t need to catch his breath, but that was the least of his surprise. “Where am I?” His words mimicked his voice, resounding back off the giant walls of the wide landscape where he stood.“Hello!” He called for help. That was probably not the best thing to do. But what could he do? He looked around, and only then did he hear it play - a ragged box with a dancing doll spinning on it. He looked at each side of his with each step to the box. Everywhere was white and quiet, almost. The sound played louder in his ears. He
