Naruto's POV

It was fuzzy. That was the first thing I noticed. Everything was sluggish and hazy. I slowly, wincing as I felt my head throb, tried getting up. Black spots danced in my vision as each slight movement made my mind spin round. As time ticked by, I finally got my bearings. 

White...

I was in a whitewashed room, on white sheets, with white bandages wrapped around me. I was literally surrounded in white. Looking around more closely, I noticed I had something attached to my arm. 

That's the moment I realized what happened... well, less realized and more remembered,

And a wave of sorrow washed over me. I had tried and failed yet again. I wanted, no, NEEDED, to die! Why? Why can't the people who told me I was useless, not grant me the one thing I want? 

Relief!

Relief from this hell-like world! Peace from the injustice that I live. Why can't that be given to me! Do I not deserve at least that much!

Then that sadness turned to anger! Mind-blowing anger...

They treat me like trash, then the one day I wished to be treated like it, they pretend they care and drag me deeper into this depression. They don't allow me the freedom to chose what happen! 

I'm no longer a living thing! I'm literally being treated as a trophy. They want me to give them my heart, my devotion... But I don't have anything else I can give! I feel so empty...

With that, I burst into tears, I couldn't take this anymore! I WANT IT TO END!

*Creak*

My head snapped to the door, to see Iruka-Sensei glaring at the hinges of the said door. As he obviously hadn't seen me, I tried to stifle my cries, as I watched him try to go into the room.

Iruka-sensei had always been there for me. If anything, I considered him my father. He would always watch me and reprimand me. And he understood to some length, the reason I wanted to die...

He was one of the very few people I never wanted to hurt, to say goodbye too...

...

But it's too late!

I... I have to do this!

I WILL SAY GOODBYE!
