The Light Of Konoha

Fairy Glitter

Aki's P.O.V.

'Where is it?
Why isn't it still there?
Jashin this is bad...'

My eyes moved under their lids frantically, my muscles too weak to even open them.

I was conscious but my body felt like lead, I had no energy to even blink.

I had woken up when Sakura had squealed and then tried to talk to a squirrel.

Weird, I know, but I no matter how much I wanted to tell her to consult mental help, I still could not move.

As to the thing I had lost, that would be the very nasty something I had sealed with a gen block within the confines of my soul.

Flashback

"Aki!! What are you doing?!! Get your hand away from the seal!!" Kakashi screamed in desperation, fear dancing in his eyes.
"You'll kill everyone! STOP!!!!"

I tuned him out.

I remembered the feeling everytime I built up my chakra and expelled it.
It was a warm sensation, rejuvenating, relieving.

All I had to do was feel the opposite.

I remembered looking into the eyes of Zabuza as my mother clutched me tight to her chest.
Those mad, mad eyes.
The insanity, the coldness I felt.

I curled into her chest, willing the world to surround me like a cocoon and protect me.

It was this feeling that I forced onto myself, drawing in the world like a blanket.

I felt my chakra flowing towards my palm, instead of the warmth of return I expected, the chakra felt like ice.
It was tainted by the evil of the fox...
...

I had passed out with my injuries, my consciousness floating about my mind of inky blackness.

Then there it was...

The writhing, coiling, burning energy, that had hitched a ride into my body when I withdrew my energy from the seal.

Nine tails chakra.

Without its master, it could do no harm, but I wasn't taking any chances with such an evil entity.

If I let it roam my body freely, it could affect my mental state.

Within the confines of my slumber, I cast a gen block to seal it within the darkest corners of my soul, never to resurface again.

End

And now... It was nowhere to be seen.

I spread my sensory ability throughout my body, searching desperately for where it could have gone.

But then I noticed something strange, the wound on my torso felt different.

I assessed it in more detail to find that it had healed, not fully, but to more of an extent than physically possible in the time.

'No... That's not possible... Did the nine tails chakra... Do this?!'

"Konoha's handsome blue beast... Rock Lee!" Said a voice outside my mind.

I mentally rolled my eyes, forgetting momentarily about the odd occurrence within my body.

"Oh Lord..."
