Tsukiko Hatake (Kakashi's Kid Sequel/Naruto fanfic) Complete

Discord and Defiance

The next day I had informed Kiba and Kakashi of what had happened and had commanded Kouki to not go out without one of us watching him. He had been cautious to say anything after seeing the mood I had been in after returning from Naruto's office the day before, and so was behaving himself and watching me carefully. However, he had been sending little glares here and there, clearly not impressed with how I had acted and how my mother had been kept a secret from him for all these years. It had now been two days since seeing my mother and Kouki's behaviour was still the same. He had begun to stay out late and would tell me that he'd been to one of his teammates houses, but the look in his eyes would show a hint of guilt and he would avoid eye contact with me. Two hints that he was lying to me. One of the ANBU members had tried following him, but he would disappear out of their sight after a few moments which gave away that he had stealthily used a clone. I was proud of my son for having skill at being stealthy, but if he was lying to Kiba and I then that no longer made it ok.

Glancing to the side of me, I saw Kouki's clothes scattered around in the hallway near his bedroom. How many times had I told that boy to keep things clean?.....
"Kouki?" I called out, seeing him open the door and peer out.
"Yes mum?" He replied with a hint of annoyance in his voice. Raising an eyebrow at him, I gestured to all the mess and put my hand on my hip.
"What have I told you about leaving your clothes on the floor?" I sighed, not particularly phased but being slightly irked about the mess. He rolled his eyes and slammed the door shut so I couldn't see him anymore. Shocked at his behaviour, I entered the room and crossed my arms. "Don't slam the door on me, Kouki. What is wrong with your attitude these past few days?" I frowned, not understanding how my baby boy could go from a happy-go-lucky mummy's boy to a stroppy teen who showed a lot of disrespect. Hormones maybe?
"Can you stop bugging me about needless things? I'll clear it up in a bit." He groaned, dropping his game boy and staring at me angrily through narrowed eyes.
"Ok, thank you." I replied, beginning to become annoyed. "Who have you been seeing lately Kouki? I know it isn't anyone I know." His eyes widened at having been discovered but then he tensed up and his glare seemed to grow stronger.
"You're so annoying! Stop being so god damn over protective all the time. You've always been like this and it's so annoying!" He exclaimed with a voice filled with anger. Aimaru jumped up, surprised by how loud Kouki's voice was and wandered over to me before trotting away downstairs. Even Aimaru seemed to be disturbed by Kouki's behaviour as of late...... What was going on?....
"I do not appreciate you acting like this Kouki." I kept my voice calm and kept back any surprise I felt so I could handle the situation smoothly.
"Like I care. Rin was right about you, you know?" He scoffed, raising an eyebrow challengingly.
"What exactly did she say Kouki?" I demanded.
"Your eyes on that day gave it away. She said you used to be a killer. Killing those who were innocent. How could you have done that?" He yelled. His words caused my heart to falter and my eyes widened. What the hell was she telling him about my past for, and why was it made out that I was the bad one?!
"Kouki." I snapped. "Behave. You don't understand anything about my past and so you shouldn't listen to a word she says. She's a liar and is manipulating you. She is not to be trusted and she is not who you think she is."
"No. You're not who I think you are! She said you'd react like this if I said anything. I'm going out." He glared, standing up and going to walk past me but I grabbed his arm, stopping him in his tracks.
"No, you are not. You are forbidden from going out." I spoke firmly so he understood I meant it but his next words have me crumbling and my heart breaking.
"Get off me. I hate you!" He screamed, causing my grip to become weak and for him to rip his arm away and run out of the house. What had caused my boy to act like this? My mother would pay for manipulating him.... Tears gathered in my eyes and I fell to my knees, holding a hand to my mouth. Oh Kouki, whatever was going through your mind?

Kouki's P.O.V

After storming out of my room and away from the house, I walked along the streets but stuck to the shadows so I wouldn't be spotted. A feeling of guilt spread through me as I realised how my rash words must have hurt my mum, but the rage that was causing through my body won over. I wanted to know my nan, was that so wrong? Why did mum hold the katana to her neck when they saw each other? Why did she treat her so coldly? Never before had I seen my mum act that way and truth be told, it kind of scared me, especially as her eyes had been like those of a killers. My nan, Rin, had told me that mum had been a killer in the past. This news shocked me and it made me feel angry at my mother for having killed so many innocent people in the past when there was no reason to. Nan had told me that she had tried to stop her but mum wouldn't listen and had developed an addiction to the sight of blood. Mum had never told me anything about her past except from how her and my father had met, along with the missions she had used to do with auntie Sakura and uncles Sasuke and Naruto. I had always wondered why nobody brought up her past or her family, excluding granddad Kakashi, but now I knew. She had killed and was trying to hide it.

The first time I had seen my nan Rin, she had been standing in the village looking around. She had looked lost so I went over to ask her who she was and what she was doing. She then introduced herself and had asked for my mum so I told her who I was. She had been intrigued by the information and began asking me questions about myself and mum. Boruto and Sarada had been suspicious about her and so had tried pulling me away, but I hadn't listened. I wanted to get to know her and was hurt that mum had kept her existence from me. The next morning I had woken up feeling different. Bite marks were left on my leg which I kept from mum, thinking that maybe Aimaru had accidentally bitten me during the night. However, from then on an unknown rage had coursed through me upon hearing Rin's words about what the village did and how my mum had been. I wasn't sure why I was so angry all the time, but my body wouldn't cooperate with me. Regret hit me as I remembered the angry look on mum's face then the hurt that replaced it when I told her I hated her. Honestly, I wasn't sure why I said that to her but I had felt so damn angry during our argument and it just burst out......
"Kouki! What are you doing outside?" A girl's voice called out to my right. Looking over, I saw Boruto and Sarada jogging over.
"Mum and I had a fight...." I sighed, the rage seeming to disappear from within me. Their eyes widened in shock and they glanced at each other seeming uncertain what to say.
"That's....... never happened before....." Boruto whispered, confusion clear on his expression.
"What happened?" Sarada asked and with that I went into detail about what had happened. By the time I finished, Sarada punched me and I fell to the floor surprised by her response. "What the hell is wrong with you? Why would you tell your mum you hate her when she's only concerned about you?" She glared, crossing her arms over her chest.
"I don't know!" I exclaimed, feeling really pathetic now that I looked back on it. Why was I so angry?....... I didn't even know!
"You've been acting weird lately....." Boruto said, watching me carefully. He went to say something else when suddenly him and Sarada were knocked to the floor unconscious.
"Boruto? Sarada?" I gasped. Looking up, I saw Rin standing there with a smirk on her face. One that looked cruel and that I hadn't seen before during the times I'd met her.
"Nice work. Your mum is bound to be easy to use now that she thinks her son hates her." She chuckled, her eyes flashing dangerously. "Now then..... Would you three come with me? Your mum's going to pay....." She held up a hand where I saw a cloth which smelt like chloroform. Shaking my head, I backed up feeling confused. Before I could run off, she grabbed me and covered my face with the cloth. The drugs hit me and before I knew it I had collapsed and passed out on the floor. I'm so sorry mum......
