The Eclipse

Chapter 16

Hinata Pov

"Boke..."

"Hhaaaaghh!!" I gasped desperately for air. 'Was that...a dream?'

I noticed i was already on the floor with the pool of blood. Nausea arose me with the iron smell. Its more than awful.

I tried standing up slowly. I don't wanna worsen my injuries just because of my clumsiness.

'Shindo removed the chains? But wh--...oh yeah. School.'

I went to my room and went straight to the bathroom not even glancing on the mirror. I quickly looked for my razor and sliced through my already injured body.

I need to get rid of these voices!

Why won't they go away!?

And that dream too...

'Forget it already shoyo!!!'

I felt relief as my head focused on my bloody thighs unstead. 'Can't risk getting caught.'

As if on cue natsu went inside and i can see that the sight broke her. Blood was visible all over the place. Natsu had come to hate red ever since mom died.

Natsu cried and hugged me right after she saw the knife stuck on my back.

I smiled at the affection and started cleaning my wounds with natsu.

One problem. We can't go to the hospital. We had no choice but to remove the deeply planted blade on my back ourselves.

I grabbed a cloth and bit on it. To atleast ease the pain on the process. I nodded signaling natsu to pull but she was hesitant.

She finally gathered courage and slowly pulled the knife.

"Aaaarrmmfffgghhhhhh!!!" I screamed but was muffled. I gasped for air as a felt cold metal getting removed, thankfully.

Natsu cried again more broken this time. She hugged my head and wiped my tears. I didn't notice i was still crying.

She helped me wrap up and disinfect the wounds.

"S-shou-nii..."

Natsu started humming the song mom used to sing. I relaxed and hugged her exhaustion taking over me.

"Thank u natsu...for being here for me."

No one Pov

Hinata got ready and went to school even slower than usual. This went on for days and the orange head's body barely kept up with his father's beatings and his cruel facade. His father would throw bottles at him successfully hitting him everytime, leaving bruises, welts and glass shards all over his body.

Everytime he faces away from his teammates silent tears would escape from his hazel eyes slowly getting drained out of emotion.

He doesn't know how long can he still keep being strong.

He kept imagining what would life be if his mother was still alive. Then again he is also thankful that his mom got freed from shindo's grasp.

One that they yet have to get away from.

Well as they say...The only constant thing in this world is change.

Shindo decided to take a step deeper into hell. Cruel plans getting set as he kept mobbing the entire underground society. Succesfully overtaking most of japan's illegal trades made his horns grow longer.

He wanted more pawns.

Soldiers.

And he decided to make one.
