The Daughter of Kurama (Discontinued)

Chapter 20 - Arrangements

I was shrouded in darkness..

No light came and my breath came and went.

Tears stain my heart shaped face.

Please...

Someone save me from this madness..

Etsuko's pov.

I couldn't help it. I cried and whimpered for someone to save me. I want dad, I want his fury arms to hug me and never let go.

I sob loudly as more tears stain my face. I suddenly felt a disturbance in the darkness and I open my red eyes.

I look at the screen and suddenly I was sucked in. I look at my two hands as I find them covered in dried blood. A drop of water comes down onto it, making it moisten. I tenderly touch my cheeks as I find them wet. I cried more.

"Just what have I done??!"

And as quickly as I regained my body, I was back in the darkness. But not before croaking out a word.

"N-Naru...to.." I croak as everything goes black once again.

Naruto's pov.

It has already been more than fifteen minutes! And I keep on hearing strange muffled noises. And was that... hissing???

I then smell a musky scent of copper that made me a little worried. Oh, who am I kidding??! It's making me extremely worried! Dattebayo!

I was about to go in the door when Etsuko's words echo in my head.

"F-fine. Just stay outside of the door. I'll call out your name if I get scared... Or something happens, okay?" She says.

I grit my teeth as I didn't want to disrespect Etsuko-chan's wish. I then hear yelling and a few crashes. It took me a looot of restraint to not barge into the door and yell- 'What the heck is going on?! Dattebayo!!"

I then hear gentle whispers and I decide that she's okay. Well was okay.

I suddenly smell the familiar salty scent that I smelled when Etsuko-chan was crying. And I hear a really faint voice. That I can barely hear, but I knew what it said.

"N-Naru...to.." She croaks.

It didn't sound alarming so I ignore it, trying my best to not knock down the door. You know what screw it if it doesn't sound like she's in danger! She told me I can go in if she calls my name. And that's exactly what I'm going to do! Dattebayo!"

And that's exactly what I did. I try to open the door to find it lock but I didn't care. The same boiling hate that was at the pit in my stomach was now going crazy and it felt like it was burning me alive!

I then try to knock the door down, only to find it still standing, laughing at my face. I growl as I suddenly feel so much hate for that door. I suddenly felt like I have more power so I tried again.

And this time I did it! Hiraaay!

Hiruzen's pov.

I am seriously panicking.

Etsuko was calm and stopped hissing after I was all the way behind my desk. But suddenly she dashes around the room in all fours, making high pitch yelps as if in pain.

"Etsuko-san what are you doing?!" I yell as I see her knocking down the book shelves.

She ignores me and dashes into a table that had an antique of a vase that belonged to the first hokage. It wobbles side to side and was about to fall when it suddenly regains it's balance.
