Protect Those Closest To You And Never Let Them Go (sequal to Akira Takianishi)

The Unfinnished Page

“You are the ones…..who hurt Sakura.”

All of our eyes widened in shock, disbelief and horror. I was looking straight at Sakura who was now breathing heavy due to the pain in her arm.

‘That injury that’s causing her so much pain……was caused by us……no no way we just wouldn’t do that she’s our friend we would never…..’

I then have a flash back to when we were training with that purvey sage. He was sitting against a wall covered in blood with a huge gash on his chest struggling to breath there was debris everywhere and a ton of smoke from all the destruction.

“Akira…….you…….don’t…remember anything…..do any of you……?”

I then snap back to reality and say

“So then….that bridge….and the huge crater in the ground…..”

“Yes, all three of you did that….”

“Along with Sakura’s wound” Kimkio then spoke up.”

“Yes that’s right. Sakura didn’t want to hurt any of you….so she lied to you. I am also responsible for Sakura getting injured.” Yamato then looked up at the sky and said “And here I was assigned to Team Kakashi….for a time like this…I have special powers…with which I can control the Nine-Tails, Eleven-Tails, and Twelve-Tails powers. So you three really don’t need to worry. At least…..while I am by your side.”

We were all a little shocked by this and looked over at him my mouth was slightly agape. Yamato then looked back down at us and said

“In other words, I didn’t have to go to the trouble of telling you the truth at this point…” The wind then picked up a bit and blew through the trees carrying leaves and slightly blowing through our hair and pushing it to the side.

“But why did I tell you three? There is no doubt that using that power might be a quick way for you to save Sasuke. But strength gained from relying on those tailed beasts….is not your true power. You will all end up tormenting yourself if you rely on the power….of the tailed beats from here on. And it could turn into a power that hurts your friends.” His eyes then narrowed into a frightening almost glare “Like what happened this time.”

I then swallow and realize that I had no control over my tailed beast even though we are good friends her instincts can easily over ride my body and cause great destruction. Even though I have trained for years with her and have been able to basically fully control her powers at will I still go on rampages. But not just me, Kimkio and Naruto both this has to be just as hard on them as it is for me if not worse.

“You should have all at least vaguely picked up on it. But you didn’t attempt to stop the release of the power….That is because you were all impatient, right?” I then bite my lip and clench my hands into a fist. Yamato then crosses his arms and says “I will now completely suppress all of your tailed beasts’ powers. But your sorely mistake….if you think that will make any of you weaker. All three of you should be sufficiently powerful…without having to rely on that Chakra especially you Akira. I think you all have got the wrong idea about this. The source of your strength isn’t in the beats Chakra. It’s the power of your own Chakra…that can withstand the formidable Chakra of the tailed beasts. If you want to save Sasuke do it with your own power. Do it with your own eyes not the tailed beats’. And if you want to protect those you love….do it with your own power not the beasts’!” as he was saying this we all saw everyone who was precious to us walking ahead leaving us behind. Yamato then started to walk away but before he could I had enough and grabbed his arm to stop him. I quickly became determined to stop them and protect them without using my tailed beast and not sit here and get lectured like some child. I had a look of determination in my eyes as I said
