The Lost Jinchūriki (Naruto Fanfiction)

Chapter 17: Memories

It's exactly what the title suggests. 😑 And yes this is my longest chapter!

"Sachi I'm sorry. I lost track of time." Akihiro blabbered to try to get himself out of trouble.

"I don't care! It's time for your meditation session!" Sachi yelled grabbing him by the ear and pulling him out of the forest.

After some pulling and angry mumbling, they arrived at the sanctuary.

"Are you done? We're here." Akihiro asked his angry sister who was still holding his ear.

"Shut up! Now go to your meditating spot!" She yelled letting go of him and pointing to the waterfall.

"Alright, alright, fussy pants. Someone missed their nap." He mumbled as he cracked his back from bending over from the ear pulling.

He made his way to the waterfall, and it splashed on his head when he sat on his rock. He crossed his legs, and he held his hands together.

Sachi was still on land, but she walked across the water and sat on top of the water in front of her brother. 'Guess it's true, girls have excellent chakra control.' Aki thought.

"Okay, Aki. Are you ready?" She asked her brother in a worried tone. He nodded and closed his eyes. He appeared in his mind space with Kurama.

"Are you sure you can handle this kit?"

"Yes, I got this you stupid fox."

After everyone found out about Kurama, they had to be told about why Akihiro was found in such a state. All they told Sachi and Kai was that he was disowned and lost his memories after his concussion. Then said that he was regaining his memories because of his savior powers. Then said that Kurama was a warrior spirit in Aki's head to help him with his powers.

Kurama used a jutsu to tell the parents in their mind what their new son had been through without letting the kids know about it. Kurama told them he could have given the boy his memories back, but he refused to know his hurtful past.

But they figured it was about time that Akihiro faced his past. So Sachi has been working with Akihiro for the past week to help him. Since they both have to control their emotions, Sachi because of her eyes and Akihiro with the mark, it was the best pair up.

Akihiro goes into his mind space and Kurama opens a memory one by one and Akihiro has to watch the whole memory without getting upset. If he does, Sachi has to use her expansion jutsu to enlarge her hand and throw water at him to cool him down.

All this time, the memories only included small beatings while he was younger and him coming home to his 'father' and 'mother' and them not believing him really. He found it outrageous and after his session, he was to tell his family in the living room about his memories. His mother would either cry or smash something but either way, she was upset about it.

"Alright kit. First memory."

Akihiro nodded and his eyes went close as he was standing in the leaf village. It was dark and he didn't see anything until a small blonde boy flew past him. He saw 3 men following behind the boy.

Guessing what this was, he flew after them. Through the village, past the shops, and turning to an alleyway. The boy was cornered and scared as tears fell on his whiskered cheeks.

The men pulled out weapons and scars were placed upon the boy. Learning from his first time doing this, he could do nothing about this as he could only watch.

He clenched his fist as they scrapped his small self's skin.

He clenched his teeth as he saw the blood flow.
