章 5: Chapter 5

Chapter 5

The sun has risen a while ago. In one of the training ground of the village hidden in the leaf village all the members of Team 7 were waiting for their teacher.

" It was much better when he was training us he was never late." Naruto said with a irritated voice. " Well him being 1 day late is still acceptable. Even though it is annoying to wait 3 hours." Sakura simply replied. She had calm down a little after the two and a half month of training.

On the other hand Sasuke was busy watching his chokuto like a fan. After being good enough and with Kakashi's permission he was able to order a chokuto made with the mix of chakra conducting metal. And he was looking at it like a kid on a christmas. He has changed from his emo self to a less emo with some emotion.

After some time Kakashi arrive but none of them voiced their complain. " Sigh..... And here I thought I have a new excuse to use. My cute little minions didn't even let me enjoy tor... cough.. cough... teaching them."

Hearing Kakashi's words all three of their eye twitch. And Naruto looked like he is going to attack Kakashi anytime.

Seeing the reaction at his comment Kakashi just eye smiled. " Ok... all three of you have reached an acceptable level in the last two and half months. Today I will give you all some ninjutsu after testing your natural affinity. And I will give you some ninjutsu which are helpful even if you have the opposite affinity." With that he gave all three of them three piece of papers.

" How are we going to know that? And what am I supposed to do with it?" Asked Naruto. "Sakura you should know the answer. Tell all of us." Replied Kakashi.

" You have to put a little amount of chakra on it. If it burn your chakra affinity is fire, if it splits in two then your chakra affinity is wind, if it wrinkles then your chakra affinity is lightning, if it crumbles then your chakra affinity is earth and lastly if it turns wet your chakra affinity is water. A normal person only has one natural affinity. Besides that only those with kekkei genkai two Natural affinity." Explained Sakura.

"Good now put a little chakra into it." Kakashi said to his students and waited to see the results. When Naruto put his chakra the paper splits in half. In Sakura's case crumbles into dust. As for Sasuke it wrinkled and then burned.

Kakashi was amazed at seeing Naruto having wind. But it was in his expectation Sakura to have earth. And finally he was shocked to see Sasuke having an elemental Kekkei genkai. Now not just him his all three students were surprised to see the results even though Naruto didn't understand anything more that Sasuke having two natural affinity and he had only one.

" I am surprised to see Naruto having wind affinity. But Sakura having earth was in my expectation. As for Sasuke I have no idea which elemental Kekkei genkai you have." Kakashi said watching all three of his students shocked face.

" First thing first, Congratulations on finding out your affinity. As for Sasuke having an elemental Kekkei genkai you all three should keep your mouth shut. Him being the last Uchiha is already made him a target for a lot of people and not if anyone finds out that he also has another Kekkei genkai it will be a lot more troublesome." He said with a sigh. ' Who would have thought teaching will become so troublesome'.

He gave all three of them 3 scrolls each. " You all can now have three jutsu. Here I also explained how to perform them. As for Naruto you have to complete your water walking first then try to practice these jutsu. You can use your shadow clones for this. You all practice I will go and see Hokage Sama." Kakashi said and left with Shunshin.

I was shocked to find out that I have an elemental Kekkei genkai. 'Is it because of the high amount of yin chakra or is it some other gift that God gave me without telling me! Even so this unknown Kekkei genkai is nothing more than trouble for me. If the Hokage knows then Danzo will know. And if knows Orochimaru will know.' I thought with sigh.

' If I have an elemental Kekkei genkai I should have much easier time completing the first stage of elemental training.' with that thought in mind I put the jutsu scrolls in the pouch and went home.

When I arrived home I saw my shadow clones are doing what the were supposed to do. I made four shadow clones. My chakra has rapidly increasesd and still increaseing over time so I am not having much trouble creating more Shadow clones.

Three of the shadow clones went to learn the three jutsu given by Kakashi sensei. As for the last shadow clone and me both activated our Sharingan and started first stage of fire elemental nature training.

"Good morning." I said to myself and woke up in the morning. Today I took a day off from my training.

I made my breakfast. Eating my breakfast I went for a walk. After coming back from walking the entire village I took a shower. After that I dressed myself with my new Uchiha yukata.

After that I went to the flower shop by using Shunshin. I really don't want to become center of any more gossip or their stupid rumour.

When I entered the shop I saw Inoichi Yamanaka. "Welcome to Yamanaka flower shop." He said to me. I was a little relieved that I won't have to meet Ino but this person is looking me like a puzzle. Without showing any emotions or much talking I brought Lilies and left. ( I searched in Google for the idea.)

I reached the Uchiha graveyard. I gave flower to all the graves. And after giving them a prayer I went near my mother and father's grave. In Sasuke's memory he never even once came to the graveyard on this day.

'Mother... Father I am sorry I didn't came hear up until now. I am sorry I was so weak. I am sorry I was too naive to see the burden on your heads. And I am sorry but I am not going to sacrifice my life to get revenge...' I just stared at the names of both my parents. I know that Kakashi is watching me from his hiding place that's why I was not speaking out loud just trying to talk in my mind.

' I know the truth about the Uchiha clan's massacre. But it is also the truth now I don't really care. These five years I didn't had a single night of sleep where I didn't saw your faces in my dreams. Maybe if I hadn't known the truth about it I would have seen the nightmares of everyone dying all this time. Or maybe I would still here their voices to get revenge from Itachi for what he did... Sometimes I thought Itachi should have killed me with you all then I won't have to suffer for being the only one alive...." A single tear slides down my cheek.

' Mother I am sorry I should have listened to you more. I should have made you more happy..... You know I should have tried to help you more than just serving food when dinner. I should have learned cooking from you my cooking is no way near your level....' another tear falls.

' Father..... I still don't like you.... You thought about clan more than your family. You made Itachi what he is today..... And look where you clan took you..... You always compared me with Itachi. Yes you were right I am never going to be like Itachi....'

' I wanted to make both of you proud and happy about me instead of Itachi for once... But it is no matter how angry I am on you all not telling me.....I STILL LOVE YOU. And I....'"I will try to move on for the better future. And I still.....hope you will be proud of me on what I become." Now tears were falling nonstop.

I got a hand on my back. I just looked who was it. Seeing it was Kakashi I just hugged him tightly and like a dam breaking I started crying. I didn't know how long I cried but when I stopped crying the sky was already dark. "Are you okay now." Kakashi asked. I was never more glad for Kakashi's help. " Okay let's take you back to home. It's already getting dark." I stood up and without saying anything I started to walk toward my home.

***

Kakashi watched one of his students walked away. He was surprised to hear that Sasuke has brought flowers and went to the Uchiha graveyard. He sad to see his student so broken but also happy to see that his student has found a new goal which wouldn't destroy him. And he was surprised to see him letting go of his past which even he couldn't do up until now. The past still haunted him. After a thought he looked at the sky and with smile he said, " Maybe....I should try to move on from the past too."

With his last word he disappeared from the place.
