Time pass by while Akuma kept on waiting and waiting. The Sand Siblings has already reached the place a while ago.
She just sit in the corner with her eyes close. Feeling everyone's chakra, from the whole forest. Surprising right? Akuma has the ability to sense people from miles away.
She's also able to connect her chakra to everyone else. But the catch is very heavy since she hasn't perfected it just yet.
She then noticed someone walking up to her. Just before that someone could speak up, she cut him off.
"So you guys survived" Akuma said
"Let's go, Naruto is waiting for you"
"Heh! Whatever Sasuke" Akuma said and pass Sasuke.
Sasuke tsk'ed and followed Akuma. They stand beside each other, as Naruto hugged Akuma.
"Aku-chan! Your okay!" Naruto said squeezing the life out of her.
"Yea...i am" Akuma said when she remembered something, she looked around finding the 3 people she met.
Only to find out that they are nowhere to be seen. Just then, the entrance door opened as the 3 she's finding appeared.
"A-akuma-san...we did it..." Yumi said as they all slowly dropped down to the ground.
Akuma wasn't able to move, she was too shock. Seeing the bruise all over their bodies. Those giant cuts from them, it reminded her of something.
Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke noticed her shaking body. But before they could ask her whats wrong, she was gone. It surprised all of them, which got them all confuse.
"Everyone! Silence!" The hokage yelled as the whole room turned quiet.
"We will continue this exam, please calm down...medicals! Get those students treated immediately!" The hokage continued and eyed Kakashi.
Kakashi nodded and poof'ed away. The exam continued like nothing happened. But there's this question that left Akuma's team and the Hokage curious.
'Why is she crushing inside...' The hokage thought
----------------------------------------------
Kakashi frantically looked around the Forest of Death. Hoping for a sign that Akuma is nearby. It was then that he again felt her crushing self.
"Over there...!" Kakashi said, speeding up to get to Akuma.
He stopped from a tree's, tree branch looking down on Akuma. He looked at her crying figure, both of her hands on her heart.
He jumped down from the tree branch. And slowly walked towards her. Before he could even touch her, she spoke up.
"Why does it always happen when i leave..." Akuma said as she turned around to face Kakashi "Why is it like that? Sensei..."
Kakashi felt like his heart was crumpled looking at his student. He bent down infront of her and put his hand on her shoulder.
"What's your life story...Akuma..." Kakashi asked
"I remembered the one thing that i've buried long ago..." Akuma said as more tears came rushing out
"Would you mind if i ask you to tell me?" Kakashi asked
"I-i don't know...i can't, i promised myself to never tell anyone about it" Akuma said
Kakashi closed eye smile as Akuma got confused. She paid no mind and just let herself look like a girl with no power, strength.
"You know...you have kindness in you" Kakashi said
"Nonsense.." Akuma said which made Kakashi laugh a bit
"Do you really think i wouldn't notice how you smile at your teammates? It seems you can't hide when your heart has love in it" Kakashi said
"Well it seems that, that is the case" Akuma said as she smiled truthfully wiping her eyes
"By the way, this was the first time i heard you call me sensei" Kakashi said smiling back
"Yea...it is" Akuma said
The two of them gone silent, it wasn't awkward. They just enjoyed each others presence. They've been like that for about a minute when Akuma decided to break the silence.
"It was a long time ago, when i was just 6 years old" Akuma started which perked up Kakashi's interest, but even so he felt like he just pushed her to say it.
"You don't need to tell me if y-"
"It's alright...besides i think it's best to let somebody else know your problems, to release the pressure you've been holding unto" Akuma said
Kakashi only nodded and just waited for her to continue. Akuma smiled yet again, looking up at the sky and started the story.
"I was with my parents, my older brother and little baby sister..."
