Episode Six: Unbearable Pain

Katashi

I was in my apartment gathering a few things I would need for when I left. Im waiting for the sun to go down, it'll be much be easier to leave unnoticed when it's dark.

I can't stay another day here. I'm terrified of hurting someone, I'm terrified I won't be able to control myself, But where will I go? All I know is where I can't go, to the hidden mist, to that man I once trusted with my life, now who I fear will take it away.

Kakashi

"Iruka? What is it?" I ask as I see him approach me. "Isn't the academy still in session?" I ask again. "I sent them home early, I found out how strong Katashi is." Iruka answers me.

"How strong he is? What happened this time?" I look away from my book more interested in the subject.

"Katashi and Sasuke were fighting, and Katashi preformed B-ranked water jutsu." Iruka told me, I could tell he was really shocked about it.

"B-rank? That's Jonin leveled jutsu Iruka, he's not even Genin yet, are you sure that's what it was?" I asked with a wide eye.

"How did he even learn that powerful of a jutsu?"

"I'm not sure, but he disappeared, I don't know where he went but I'm afraid some thing bad might happen, considering the few last times."

"Why did you come to me about this?" I asked confused.

Katashi

It's nearly sundown, I hoped onto the roof of my apartment, it started raining, lucky me. I watched as the sun slowly fell behind the mountain with the faces on it. It was a scary thought to leave, but it was even scarier knowing I might hurt more people here. There is no turning back.

I leaped onto the next roof and continued on to the gate. The sun was completely gone now leaving the stars and village lights my only sources of light.

I was at the entrance of the village, I stopped and hid in a shadowy area. "It's about time to close the gate." I hear a man say. I looked over to see two Jonin talking.

While they weren't looking I snuck behind them and sprinted through the gate, this was easy because of the rain, they couldn't sense my chakra. I ran off into the forest, I crouched on a branch to check if I was being followed, thankfully no one was there, I watched as the gate doors closed causing a loud sound to echo throughout the air.

Kakashi

I was on my way to katashi's house when it had started to rain, this will just make it harder to find him.

Iruka told me that I convinced Katashi to go back to the academy, he thought that I'd be able to do it again, I didn't really have a choice at this point, this kid could get into some serious trouble.

As I was approaching his house I saw that his bedroom light was on and the window was open. I crouched on the window seal, and looked inside the room. "Katashi? Are you here?" I asked but I heard nothing in response.

I stepped into the room and looked around. That's when I saw a note on his bedside table. I picked it up and started to read it.

I'm guessing your the one who found this note Kakashi, from when you told me what Iruka told you about what I had done, I knew he'd do it again, I knew you'd come looking for me. I've decided to leave, I cannot control myself, I was to afraid to leave, but I was even more afraid to hurt the people around me. I don't plan on coming back, so now I'm guessing you want to know why this note was written, well if something had happened to me, at least you would know my whereabouts, it's just logical. But don't come after me, please, unless you're absolutely sure something bad will happen. Thank you.
-Katashi Namikaze

I took off out the window in search for him, I know he didn't want me to come after him, but he shouldn't be afraid of himself, and he should not be alone, he needs people around him.

The gate was already closing once I was near it, he's got to be already on the other side. I focused my chakra into my feet and ran up the wall. I overlooked the forest but all I could see was darkness. There was no sign of Katashi. "Ahh!" A scream struck my ears from down below in the forest, I knew that voice belonged to Katashi.

Katashi

I hoped branch to branch, I was looking for shelter, somewhere further away from the village. I shouldn't  have written that note, I know he's coming after me, I need to keep going.

This reminded me of that night when I was leaving the hidden mist village, it was dark, cold, and raining.

I was standing outside of his door, he was talking to that one man he gets his jobs from. I was curious about what they were talking about so I listened in on their conversation.

"I have the coordinates of another town that needs to be delt with." "Where's this town at?" I heard
My comrades voice.

"It's someway up north, not too big of a journey. How's that boy you took in two years ago? I hear he's powerful." "Katashi? Yeah he's alright." He said trying not to get into the subject, see we all have each others backs and I know he doesn't really trust that man.

"He's alright? That's not what I've heard, people say he's a fine killer, isn't he really helpful on those missions I send you on?" The man said.

"I guess so."

"And he's alright with the fact that these people you kill are just poor innocent family's?"
What? Innocent? That's impossible.

"Well, I didn't tell him yet." No, it can't be true, you've lied to me these past two years? I killed all those people in cold blood? How could I be tricked so easily? Why didn't I realize it? I-I'm a monster.

After that I packed what little things I had left and took off, I ran for what seemed likes hours until I finally collapsed of exhaustion.

That one thought kept replaying in my head. I'm a monster. I'm a monster. I'm nothing more than a cold blooded monster. That's when I felt a stabbing pain in my wrist, it's got to be that stupid mark, I don't even know what the hell it is. The pain was getting worse, I couldn't run any more, I fell to my knees, I bit my tongue and griped my wrist. The pain became unbearable. "Ahh!" I let out a menacing scream, and I crashed to the ground.
