At the Heart Of Darkness

Chapter 3

Its been 3 days since the incident, and 3 days since I had left that place. I haven't been sleeping well.

But at least I haven't had an explosion; that's what I call the black sphere thing.

I still haven't figured out what that thing is anyway, although it hasn't occurred recently, though I'm still wary of people.

But I have found that when my emotions get the better of me I get the fiery burning feeling in my chest. So I have concluded that, it is my emotions that unleash the explosion.

With a sigh I leaned back up against the tree I was resting under. Its been hard I've at least run into 2 groups of rogue ninja, and I am still alive and able to move.....just.

The first group came from the Village Hidden in the Mist, no point in explaining their techniques.

The second group was from, well actually now that I think about it.

They were kind of unique and different, all three if them wore black coats with red clouds on it.

But it was kind if weird they just stared at me and then went along their way, except for the foul mouthed one.

He kept trying to convince the others to be allowed to sacrifice me.

But alas I am still in one piece and alive, with a sigh I crawled on the grass and laid on my stomach listening to the birds, their songs floating in the air as the wind blew softly.

My eyes grew tired, 'I think I can afford to have a short nap.' I let my eyes droop as sleep consumed me.......

'Poke'

'Poke'

My nose twitched in annoyance to the constant poking that was happening to my side.

"Hey, we got a dead one here. What do you want us to do with it."

"Check if he's got any valuables on him."

I slightly felt myself being rolled over, it was an odd feeling to say the least. I groaned and opened my eyes, hissing because of the sun and tried to use my hand to shield my poor eyes.

"Wait- The persons alive!" A voice snapped.

I froze as I realised I wasn't alone. Panic rose and suddenly I sat up and scampered backwards, but stopped when my back hit the tree.

Two masked figures stood in front of me. I'm going to take a wild guess and say they aren't lost ninja needing directions.

"He is." One of the masked ninja walked towards me and grabbed the front of my vest jacket and lifted me up so I was nice and close to his masked face.

"Such a nice face." He breathed...

My eyes widen as the familiar feeling arose in my chest. My breathing slowed and came out hard as I tried to calm the feeling; it was like trying to put out a fire with sake. The feeling kept building and I started squirming, trying to get out of the masked man's grip. But that made his grip tighter; he chuckled at my futile attempts as I grabbed at his gloved hands.

"What's this trying to escape? It's not every day that I come across a kid as young as you?" The man said, his breath smelt of blood.

A shiver shot down through my spine. I could feel the blood lust emitting from him, if I didn't get away soon these men were surely going to wiped out by me. I was going to take another life away.

I started to tremble in the man's grip as the heat in my chest grew, I know I wouldn't be able to control this feeling. I squeezed my eyes shut as the feeling grew, I heard chuckles of amusement. But that's when I couldn't hold it in any longer, I could feel the power coming from myself, but as powerful as it was the pain I was faced with was unbearable.

The feeling of pain and power was over whelming after what felt like hours the feeling disappeared and I succumbed to the darkness, faced with a never ending abyss of black.

Is this what I am? A bomb waiting to explode? This evil I am cursed with I will never be able to escape. Maybe killing myself would be good for both me and other people, leaving the earth and taking the curse along with. I've already taken so many innocent lives. Leaving this world would be the only way to be free of this curse......

The only way I can be truly free.....After 12 years of living without the ability to be able to physically touch objects without the use of gloves, but I would gladly leave thi-

My thoughts were cut off when all of a sudden the scene changed, a white light surrounded me and I felt a pull in front of my vest. Two brilliant eyes came into my view and an outline of blond spiky hair. I was suddenly jolted forward roughly and a sharp pain appeared I looked up to see the person looking at me. Those eye were filled loneliness, sorrow, pain and understanding.

"Don't you take your life because of everyone else around you! Live for yourself! Live life the way you want to, and if there is a bump in the road! Find the courage to overcome it!" My eyes widen as he spoke I gasped as I felt a strange liquid fill my eyes, but just as soon as the light came it quickly disappeared and I was left to stray in the darkness.
