Under the mask

Blood Spike

Timeskip

I lied down on my bed and thought about Tobi and the rest. They're probably looking for me right now. I sighed.

Then Kakashi popped his head into my room.

"The Hokage said that you're going to start ninja academy tomorrow at 7." He said as he sat down next to me. I could feel the bed sank down as he sat.

"How did you end up in the forest?" he asked.

I looked down. Should I tell him?

"Can I tell you tomorrow......maybe" I said the last part quietly.

Of course he heard it but he decided to ignore it.

"Goodnight" he said as he left my room.

"Night" I muttered as my eyes began to close and let the darkness swallowed me.

*Dream/ Flashback*

I was seven years old and I was chained onto the wall. My ankles and wrists. I was very skinny. You can see my ribs through my dirty bloody clothes.

The room I was in was very dark. No light. But the door suddenly opened and light hit my face. It blinded me.

My dad stood there staring at me with a murderous look. He walked up to me and lifted up my bruised chin so I'm looking at him straight in the eye.

Back then my whole face was bandaged except my left eye. The purple one.

I stared at the man in front if me. He wasn't my real dad, he adopted me for this. So he can have fun torturing people.

He let go of my chin then stabbed me in the leg. I didn't scream nor cried. Because it doesn't solve any problems. It doesn't help at all.

He kept on stabbing me. Legs, thighs, arm, shoulders, hand. It hurts so much. Blood keeps gushing out of me.

Then finally he stabbed me straight in the stomach. Blood splashed on his face while he laughed maniacally.

He was stepping on the blood when I whispered.

"Blood Spike"

That immediately killed him. Blood from the ground suddenly turned to really big spikes. He was lifted off the ground. The spikes went through his feet, legs, stomach and the last one, it stabbed through his butt then to the head. You can see the spike on the top of his head.

It was a nauseous sight.

*End*

I immediately woke up and was about to scream but remembered that Kakashi is going to hear it.

I'm panting, sweat covered my face and I'm shaking.

It's 6 in the morning. Just in time to get ready for the academy.

I quickly took a shower and put on some new clothes.

Black shorts, dark blue knee high laced up boots, blue fingerless gloves, black baggy shirt and a blue and white checkered sweater that reaches my thighs and unzipped. I always wear baggy shirts because it feels loose.........and also for another reason..(u will find out soon what is the other reason)

You could see my scars on the arms and legs so I put bandage all around it.

I put on my eyepatch over my right eye and bandages over my left then bangs over it. Of course I can see. Weird right? I can see perfectly like the eyepatch and bandages wasn't even there.

I went to the kitchen and saw Kakashi cooking pancakes as I sat on the chair.

"Morning Alyss" he said as he put the pancakes on the plate and set it in front if me.

"Morning" I said as I grabbed the syrup.

"How can you see out of eyepatch and bangs?" he asked as he sat in front of me.

"I just can" I shrugged. I gave him the syrup and he put it on his pancakes.

At the same time, we took our forks and and stared at each other. We sweatdropped.

We were both wearing a mask.

"Ummm.....how about we both turn around" I said.

He nodded in response and turned around with his plate.

I did the same and put my plate on my lap as I pulled down my mask and ate.

After eating, I did the dishes and lied down on the couch.

Kakashi sat on the other couch and looked at me.

"Why are you covered with bandages?" he asked.

"Cuz they look awesome" I said as I walked out of the house. I don't want to be questioned at all. They might find out what my secret is......
