Echos of Forever (Kakashi love story)

Suicide mission

I have a bad feeling about this mission Ens is hiding something from Ji . I run my fingers through my damp hair I start putting on my ninja outfit ,I begin to wrap my feet and ankles. I feel like I had to say goodbye what if I actually don't make it back from this war ,I don't think those two will ever fully recover. " tsk" I finish up by putting my head band around my arm. Maybe it's best I die on the field Inari knows I'm not even sure I'll be able to ever go back to the village and be normal again. I shake my head as if trying to shake those thoughts from my brain,before I know it I'm outside the main tent I walk in and see a tall blond standing infront of Ens he turns around I notice those deep blue eyes, oh it's Minato. I raise my hand up " Sup?" I hear Ens mumble troublesome woman, I laugh softly " I mean Ens if you want me to be a Troublesome
woman I'll gladly start behaving like one " I wink at him laughing I see Minato crack a smile at that. " So Spill it Ens what's this mission that your hiding from Ji?" I smiles and shakes his head " You caught on huh?" I cross my arms over my chest and lean on one hip. "Alright alright I get it .. I didn't say anything infront of him because you and Minato are being sent straight into Enemy territory and you both are up against 4 thousand shinobi, you to are being sent in as a distraction I did nt.." I interrupt him mid sentence "So i was right my gut was telling me I needed to say goodbye, this is a suicide mission.." He nods his head and balls his fists . I see Minato watching me closely. I nod my head and put my hand on his,"Its okay Ens don't blame yourself ,this is war after all." Ens looks up at me with tears ,I see Minato shifting his feet and moving back trying to give us space. "People die every day for the people and homeland they love I'd be honored to be among them." Ensui raises his voice " But those people aren't you V ! They aren't you ! Aren't you scared I know I'm scared of loosening you." I frown and Embrace him and hold hom close " I would be lieng if I were to say I'm not afraid of death but I'm not afraid of what comes after, if death is inevitable then one should try to die well." He embraces me tightly I bury my head into his chest grip his flak jacket tightly and breath in deeply calming myself he always smells of a warm summer breeze ,I always wondered how he could smell like that I get how Ji smells of a warm campfire. After a few minutes we pull apart I step on my tip toes and give him a kiss on the cheek. " Alright Ens we better be setting out." I preform the summoning hand signs and white 2 tailed fox appears I bend down and pet Aoi " Aoi darling I need you stay here with Ens and keep him company till I can come back Alright " she's one yips at me and wags her tails,I gently hand her to Ens and smile then I leave the tent . I take a deep breath to calm my nerves then decide to light up one of cigarettes Ji left me. I start walking twods Iwagakure . I feel Minato running and catching up. After a few hours of running we decided to make camp. I sit across from Minato with the fire between us I guess I should probably ask how he's been he speaks up ," So I don't think we got to formally meet before we left and I didn't want to intrude on you saying goodbye to your boyfriend but I'm Minato namakazi ". I raise an eyebrow at him and snort before I start to laugh. After finishing up my laughing fit I see him look very taken back and pure confusion in those deep blue eyes. " Oh please forgive my rudeness! I couldn't help but because I don't quiet understand why everyone thinks Ens and I or lover or Rinji and I." I snicker again quieter. "Also we've met before Minato even worked together once before ." I watch his face look taken back slightly. " I'm sorry it doesn't seem I rember you" I smile not like he can tell ." Oh don't worry about it my names Haven ,Haven Yuki we worked together on the kanabai Bridge mission ." I watch the shock roll over his face."You are that child that saved my life " I nod my head," you weren't wearing a mask back then why are you wherein one now ?" I close eye smile "Well to keep my identity a secret ofcourse I've made a name for my self out here I've got a flee on sight order." I watch as his eyes widen ,"May I ask what is your name ?" , I nod " People call me Scarlett Illusion. " " So that's why they paired us up, I would have never guessed that young child was you." I close eye smile at him ." You're still wiser than most people ." What does he mean by that he's said once before , guess my eyes gave me away because he spoke up " Back at camp what you were telling Ensui ,about being honored to die and to die well .." oh I guess .." I wouldn't consider myself wise I just speak my heart." He looks at me with such soft eyes , I don't deserve that. " I disagree most shinobi don't have half the instict " before he can finish flip over him and slit an enemy nins throat i see Minato gasp and look taken back by me." I didn't even sense him! " I wipe my face to get rid of the blood and tossed a rag to him to clean up he easily caught it. " Neither did I but I smelled him . " I do my summoning justu and larger red 3 tail fox " Cielo I need you do preamiter search notify me if you find anyone" He nods his head " As you wish princess. " " you know Haven you are full of surprises. " I shake my head and I look up at him " Are you nervous for tommrow ?" He looks likes like he's deep in thought. " Ofcourse who wouldn't be ? Tommrow I just hope it is worth it. ." Hmm I don't know if we're gonna win,but I look up at him with determination." Sometimes a fight you can not win is still worth fighting"he gives me a smirk and shakes his head . " So have you gotten to go home recently ?" I shake my head ofcourse not I'm needed here I won't leave until this is over. I start twirling my kunai " No I haven't been home once this war." He looks taken back then i see pure sadness in his eyes. So I smile at him " Oh don't feel sad it's okay I have no regrets ." I wouldn't trade any of the years up here if it wasn't for staying I'd never met with Rinji or Ens. " Do you ? Don't you have people at home awaiting your return?" I see a smile that is full of just love . " Yeah I have my wife and we just found out we're pregnant!" I smile then frown, his kid might grow up without a dad, I crease my eyebrows I don't like that idea . I start chewing on my lip and look at my hands how many life's have I affected because of this war. " Hey it's okay If I don't make it out I know my child has a father they can be proud of." I shake my head and take out a scroll and toss it at him. He looks at me perplexed . " Minato honestly after time frame of our people make it into the city, I want you want you to Chanel ur charka into this if asked why just say the princess gave it to you I'm sure my summoning will ask why you summoning them but it's crucial to the fight that's coming tommrow , and I promise you one thing Namakazi I swear you will make it home to you're wife and child." He nods his head . " Dont worry I have your back also want you making it back to your boyfriend back at camp huh ?" If only he knew that isn't possible I just sealed my fate giving him that. But I will go down fight I will never stop swinging. But I put on a fake smile " He's not my boyfriend lover or anything like that people constantly think Ens and Rinji and I are in some kind of three way relationship going on ." I snicker thinking about them ." Well anyone with two eyes can tell you guys love eachother. Very deeply ." I nod " We do , those two mean everything to me I'd bring hell to earth over those two, but were not in a relationship I don't think any of us feel that way ...even if any of us did those two deserve hell lot better and more than I could ever offer them." I smile at him I just pray to Inari those two move on and not chase a ghost . Silence fills time between us I stare into the fire and watch it crackle. " Minato could you do me favor ?" He looks over at me intrigued. " If something were to happen to me can you please make sure those two don't loose them selfsame and not do anything stupid please ?" He looks at me and I'm not sure what he's thinking ," I will " I smile at him ,before I know it it Cielo was infront of me yipping I smile at home and begin petting him he purrs in my lap." Were safe for right now why don't you lay down I will take watch ." He looks concerned ," Are you sure I can take first watch it wouldn't be a problem" I wave him off " Its fine I'm spend a little more time with my little friend here before I lay down." He nods and lays down in his bed roll . I walk a little bit a ways and jump into the trees and make sure Minato can't hear me . Cielo hops up into my lap and whimpers at me I smile down at him and run my fingers through his soft furr. " Cielo u need you to tell the king to be expecting a vistor from and that I'm relying on him to get Minato home to his family for me would you?." I hear him yip then he puts his fox head against my own and whimpers. " Dont be said boy I won't go down with out fighting I beilve I can make it through this but if I don't please make sure that man makes it home to that wife and child of his please and if I could ask you one more favor please protect him if something were to happen to me ,I can't shake my gut feeling but that man is gonna be something great Ceilo ." I reach up and run my fingers through his fur and and I wipe my tears on him .I'm not at all confident that I'll make it out of this.But I've been fighting since I was a child ,and I'm not a survivor I'm a warrior if I'm die I'm go out a warriors death. I look up at the full moon please forgive me Ensui Rinji if I don't make it out of this please know I love you both. I sit there just watching the moon and stars. Before I know it the sun is rising I smile and enjoy it I hear groaning from below me so I jump down and land down a few feet away from the blue eyed blond I can't help but snicker ,his hair is is absolutely everywhere can it even be tamed ? I laugh quietly to myself . He stands up and stretchs and turns around with a slight annoyed expression so I raise an eyebrow at him in question. Maybe Mr Namakazi isn't a morning person hmm?. " You didn't wake me for my shift how are you gonna be at 100% for this fight ?" Ah I see now. " Dont worry about that flash man I'm use to it ,I'm so use to fighting with no sleep it's second nature hell I went a week in half in on going battle and missions then only crashed for two days before I got sent out on this mission, don't worry I will be more than efficient in the battle field." He looks taken back " Are you sure ?" He puts his hand on my shoulder I internally flinch . I look him in the eyes and steel my own getting serious "I know what I am capable of I am a soldier have been one for long time I'm a warrior i am someone to fear I'm not someone's prey to hunt." He looks kinda shocked then smiles at me .I feel Ceilo rub up against my leg I bend down and pet him before he poofs away. Not long after we begin to start running I call over to him " By chance do you know water style ?" He nods you got anything that could possibly rain down upon alot of people. " yeah I have thousand needle rainstorm." I nod " Do you think you could cast it a few times for me ? And if you ever cast it and need help just holler for me I can Electricfy the water or freeze it completely .." I see him nod we soon arrive at where all this is to take place.
