10. who is he?

In the sterile quietness of the hospital room, Kakashi sits on a bed next to his bed, staring at the paper izuki gave him.

The room is dimly lit, the only light coming from the hallway outside. The silence is interrupted only by the occasional beep of a medical machine and the muffled sounds of nurses moving around the department.

He unfolds the paper with a mixture of curiosity and trepidation. As his eyes scan the words written on it, his expression becomes more grave.

The revelation stuns Kakashi. The words on the letter are clear and concise, stating that izuki is officially no longer a member of Team Seven.

Kakashi's eyes widen, and a feeling of dismay washes over him. He re-reads the letter several times, trying to comprehend the gravity of the situation.

Kakashi thought " just a hour before Sasuke learned about itachi and now this letter, what's really going on with my team? I hope guy finds Sasuke quickly. But now he isn't my concern now, I have to think about izuki. Who suddenly came to konoha as a new member in team 7 but rarely came to training and he didn't even really took part in missions of our team, being absent for month and saying he was just training. I was a little suspicious of him already but now I know something is wrong with him. But what? Even hokage is dead I can't possibly talk to him. Even his face is not known to anyone as he wears mask I just know he is rich and a talented ninja hiding everything about himself. He even knows itachi and the anger in itachi's eyes is so pure I had never seen it before. why? What is going on? I can guess something happened between them that itachi wanted to kill izuki. And now this letter just what is izuki thinking. " there was confusion and suspicion written on his face as he thought.
