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
“I almost killed you back there. If I were a chaos monster, you would definitely be dead right now and it wouldn’t just be you, others would also be victims because of your absence of mind. What is wrong with you?” “Hey, hey Greg, stop it. Enough.” Zoa jumped in. “I said enough!” She had to hold Greg back to restrain him. “He is right you know. You have not been present all day. What is wrong with you? Are you okay? The mission is in a few days and you need to be present, we need you.” Zoa stooped to see Kakashi’s face.“I was not here for the last one, and I can still meet you. You all can survive without me.” Kakashi threw his face away. “Now… now that you are here, you would make it better for us. We will be less troubled and anxious. We don’t just want to survive, we want to be fine. Please Kakashi, whatever it is, just let me know. Please, okay?”“What is wrong with you?” Tanya left others behind to join in with them, “You don’t look yourself.” “I am fine.” Kakashi sighed.“Y
Kakashi took a deep breath; a sharp exhale escaping his lips. He looked around, nothing was out of place. The marble basin was squeaky clean. He touched his ankles, it confirmed he wasn’t hallucinating. It still hurt a bit. He shut his eyes to his mind reeling on the event. He looked at his savior, a grin covered his face. “Thank you,” Kakashi uttered, his voice inaudible almost like a whisper. Oz nodded. He was happy to be in the right place at the right time. “You are welcome,” he replied as an afterthought, walking out with satisfaction soaked in his smile. Kakashi flinched as the door swung open. He grinned trying not to look suspicious. He walked out briskly, “Enough of that for today,” he inhaled sharply, the presence of people. ‘How am I seeing these things?’ He pondered internally walking with a heavy heart full of a load of worries. A sharp turn around the pillar was the easiest route to finding Jiro. Kakashi needed to talk to someone. “I can’t continue like this,” he mu
