Capítulo 4: Friends (Part-2)
"Pffttttttttt"
Hehehe
Sakumo sprayed the coffee from his mouth as Little Kakashi laughed in Yasaki's hand.
Even Yasaki smiled, this was quite amusing to say.
"Cough Cough, You two can stop laughing now"
Hehehehe
Kakashi kept on laughing out. And jumping in Yasaki's hand.
Yasaki smiled and kissed his little plump cheeks which is full of milk scent.
Sakumo sighed, "Yasaki, can you repeat that?"
Yasaki nodded, "I have combined all the forms, what should I do next?"
"You-- You took less than 3 years to not only learn all the forms but also synthesis them?"
Yasaki shrugged
"..."
"Tou san?"
"I-I am sorry, it's just so--
"What can I do next?"
"I don't know"
"You don't? I thought you are a sword user as well", Yasaki frowned
Sakumo sighed, still reeling from his previous shock, "I use a Short sword, You Kaa san used the longswords. I never learned it"
Yasaki sighed, "So, what do we do?"
"How could I know? You were supposed to Synthesis all the forms into one; after years of hard work and Training. And then form your own path. It's shocking that you managed to do that in 3 years. Heck, I am still shocked"
"..."
"But now I did, now what should I do?", asked Yasaki
"How would I know?", said Sakumo
"You are the only adult present here, Stupid Tou chan"
"That does not make me omnipotent. Who told you to break through the forms so quickly, This is all your fault"
"How the hell is this my fault, I thought you were supposed to be some kind of a legend in sword mastery or something"
"Correction Short sword Mastery. and well, It's not like I can create moves for you from the tree"
"Well, then what do we do?", asked Yasaki grinding his teeth
"How would I know?"
"Tou chan"
Hehe
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Both Sakumo and Yasaki looked at the little Kakashi in Yasaki arms laughing himself out and burying his face in Yasaki's chest.
"..."
Sakumo chuckled
Yasaki chuckled as well
"I can teach you the ninjutsu, You are 5 already"
Yasaki shook his head, "I just want to focus on my Longsword for a while"
Sakumo nodded, "Then I will teach you the steps"
"Really?"
"Although My steps are meant for barehanded, Kunai, or Shortsword users, the basics are the same though. Rest will be up to you"
Yasaki nodded
XXXXXXX
When Yasaki woke up the next day, he was tired and down, Last night training was tough.
He unconsciously reaches for his side table, to pick up the necklace of his Kaa san
!!!!
The Necklace isn't there.
Yasaki trembled in fear, he searched the entire room for more than 2 times to find it.
He searched in other parts of the house as well.
After hours of trying to find it, he curled around the corner and clenched his white hair
!!!
"Kakashi", muttered Yasaki
He took large strides towards Kakashi's room, "HATAKE KAKASHI COME OUT OF YOUR ROOM"
Sakumo came running out of his room
Kakashi came out of his room with little red eyes and dirt all over him
"..."
He is right, Kakashi took Kaa san's Necklace.
"Where is it?", asked Yasaki in a rage, which made Kakashi flinched in fear
"KAKASHI WHERE IS IT?"
"I-In the back Garden, where you always train"
"Then why are you covered in dust", Yasaki asked
"I- I was trying to search for it"
!!!!
Yasaki shook, Kakashi lost the Necklace yet even he couldn't find it.
"When did you lose it?"
Kakashi looked down
"KAKASHI WHEN DID YOU LOSE IT"
"L-Last Night, after you were asleep"
!!!!
He gritted his teeth and ran out in an Instant
XXXXXXX
"You should stop, you are searching it for hours", said Sakumo as he watched Yasaki digging the ground for hours to no end
It's already night time. Yasaki's clothes were already covered in dirt and his nails were scratched from all the digging of dirt.
"Not now, Kakashi must have dropped it somewhere around here. I just--- I just"
His hand that was digging the dirt was caught in midair.
"That's enough Yasaki"
"Leave me", Yasaki said
"Yasaki"
"Leave me alone", he tried to push Sakumo back but to no avail as his Tou san didn't move from his place
"Leave me", He kept on hitting the old man trying to push him away, but Sakumo refused to budge
He separated himself from Sakumo and with a poof..!! of smoke, a black sword appeared in his hand as he pointed the black sword of his Kaa-san at him, "Leave me alone"
"Nii chan", 3-Year-old little Kakashi weakly called out
Sakumo smirked, "For 3 years, You never retaliated. You must be quite angry by her death right?"
"..."
"For 3 years, you never cried over her death"
"..."
"You are only 5 this year, Yet, the only thing you did was taking care of me and Kakashi and training with that sword of your mother's"
Yasaki gritted his teeth
With a poof!! of smoke, a short sword appeared in his hand.
"So, this time, release all that anger of yours onto me. I will handle everything as your father. Come at me Hatake Yasaki"
Yasaki whose eyes were already burning red, exploded as he ran straight to Sakumo and swing his black sword onto him vertically to cut him down.
*Tink
Sakumo raised his short sword above him and parried the attack
Yasaki gritted his teeth and slashed at Sakumo horizontally.
Sakumo leaned back and dodge the attack. "Too open", he kicked Yasaki who was all open
Puhhhhhhhh
Spraying blood, Yasaki slid back
"Is that the Kenjutsu you were so proud of? Then I am disappointed"
Yasaki gritted his teeth and ran towards Sakumo once more
Sakumo smirked, "Reckless aggression won't get you anywhere"
Yasaki swiftly diagonally slashed at Sakumo.
*Tink
*Tink
*Tink
*Tink
With a relentless attack of the sword, Sakumo parried them all to the point where it's useless to continue it.
Yasaki ducked the casual slash of Sakumo and slashed his sword up
*Tink
Parried yet again.
Yasaki stumbled back and jumped on Sakumo the very next instant
"Very Quick Recovery, Good"
Striking the sword down trying to hack at Sakumo.
Sakumo smirked and took a step to the side, and with that sidestepped, The attack fully missed, leaving Yasaki wide open.
Sakumo kneed his stomach.
Puuuhhh
His face came forward, as Sakumo kicked Yasaki's face.
Yasaki rolled back with the ground.
He put the hand on the soft grassy ground trying to stabilize himself. As he did, he saw his Tou san in front of him, with his Sword and murderous Look in his eyes.
Yasaki thrust his sword forward
*Shing
Sakumo kept on running as he slid his short sword with the black sword creating sparks.
He slashed and Yasaki's shoulder was cut. Stumbling him back.
In a fight, when one loses their footing and Balance, they lose their right to defend.
That slash was only the start, as he punched Yasaki a few times before he strikes Yasaki into the air with a Lightning Release infused uppercut, following that he jumps above the defenseless Yasaki with amazing speed and begins punching away at him until finally striking him down into the ground with a Lightning Release infused blow to the stomach.
"Nii chan", 3-Year-Old Kakashi tried to come out and help Yasaki, but one stern look from Sakumo make him unable to advance
Sakumo looked back at Yasaki lying on the muddy ground, all beaten up.
"Is that all?", Sakumo asked feeling disappointed
He turned back at Kakashi, "Kaskahi, bring the medical box here
Yasaki was lying on the ground all beaten up when he heard it
"Sweetie"
"K-Kaa san"
In a black world, Yasaki saw a young woman playing with her young First-born who wasn't even 3 months old at that time
There is no happy ending, there is only him and his mother, Yasaki smiled, as he kept on watching her
Sakumo turned back to see the beaten up Yasaki standing up.
"Still not enough?", asked the smirking Sakumo
!!!!
A Blinding white aura covered his entire body, as Yasaki stood there. with his blue eyes staring at nothing.
"..."
"That's it, This is your real power, that white chakra of Hatake's. Now the real match begins", Sakumo said excitedly as he rushes towards Yasaki and stabbed him.
"..."
The attack went past and through him
!!!!
'What the heck'
Both Sakumo and Kakashi were shocked when they saw Yasaki standing behind Sakumo doing nothing.
'Did he just used the Afterimage Technique?'
After Image Technique was one of the main reasons that Sakumo is called the Legendary White Fang.
He mastered this technique after learning how to control and use that white chakra of his.
He mastered this technique when he was 20.
Hatake Yasaki used this technique when he was 5.
There was not even a comparison between the two of them.
"You are incredible, Yasaki", Sakumo muttered as he rushes once again to stab Yasaki.
"..."
Again the same thing happened as the sword passed through Yasaki.
But this time, A sword pierced Sakumo from the back.
But the attack went past Sakumo as well.
As Sakumo stabbed Yasaki from the side
"..."
He took a step forward as he tilted his head to dodge the attack
!!!!
The attack missed and Sakumo was wide opened.
Yasaki brought his black sword upwards, Sakumo gritted his teeth, and using his superior speed, he managed to lean back and dodge the attack.
If both their speed were the same, This attack would be fatal.
"..."
Sakumo flipped back and looked at the calm and beaten up Yasaki who was merely standing there.
'His movements are entirely changed from before. what is going on?'
"..."
He started walking towards Sakumo
Sakumo made hand signs in a blur
"Raiton: Raijū Tsuiga"
Sakumo slammed his lightning covered hands onto the ground as two Hounds with Lightening element ran towards Yasaki.
"..."
He leaned back and rotated a bit to dodge the attack. Two Lightning hounds got cut and disappeared.
"..."
Yasaki kept on moving forward
'What the--- wait, is he--'
Yasaki calmly and surely kept on walking
!!!!
Sakumo jumped back as felt the Sword Intent. he looked down, His Pants were torn slightly, that too because he dodged the entire attack.
'He is attacking and moving at the same time, How is he doing this?'
'Wait, After Image, that's right, it was after image, to think he is learning and mastering the technique to this point in front of my eyes. This brat is incredible'
'I need to focus. His body is reacting to my Intent and dodging it on its own, his body is just moving on instincts'
'Everything leaves intent, whether it's Killing Intent, Sword Intent, Fist Intent or Saber Intent, and if that's the case, then a little boy barely 5 years Old can not feel the intent to that extent. I just need to hide it and then'
Sakumo turned into the white light and pierced through Yasaki's midriff
Puhhhhhhhhh
Yasaki sprayed blood as he fell on his knees.
This time he was finally defeated.
XXXXXXX
Sakumo put the bandaged and unconscious Yasaki onto the bed.
He looked back and see Kakashi going out at night
"Where are you going?"
"To the back garden", Kakashi said resolutely
"Why?"
"To find Nii chan's Necklace", He looked down, "It's important to him"
Sakumo smiled, "Then why did you steal it?"
He looked guilty, "He is always sad whenever he touched it, I thought he would be happier if it wasn't there"
Sakumo sighed, "Have you seen what's inside of it?"
Kakashi shook his head
He kneeled in front of Kakashi as gently rubbed his cheeks, "It was given to him by Kaa san, The neckless and that black Longsword are the only two things she left him. It contains her memory, that's why he is always sad whenever he touched these two things. But it's something very important to him"
Kakashi nodded
"Make sure that you apologize properly once he wakes up", said Sakumo as Kakashi nodded again
"Let's go, I will help you search it"
XXXXXXX
When Yasaki woke up his entire body was aching through the pain.
He subconsciously put his hand on the side table and found the necklace
!!!!
His eyes were wide opened when he saw it.
"Nii chan", Yasaki looked at the opposite side to see the tired Kakashi standing there.
"Kakashi?"
Kakashi bowed, "I am sorry. I shouldn't have taken that Necklace"
"..."
"..."
Kakashi looked up to see Yasaki staring at him.
"Nii chan?"
Yasaki pointed his finger at him, "What's with that mask?"
"I look cool with it", Kakashi said as a matter of fact
"..."
Yasaki chuckled, as he hugged Kakashi tightly
Kakashi's cheeks were slightly red, as he blushed "Does that mean you are not angry anymore?"
Yasaki grinned as he left Kakashi from his embrace, "How can I be angry at someone who covers half of their face just to look cool while saying sorry"
Kakashi grinned, Yasaki grinned as well
XXXXXXX
Sakumo and Yasaki eat their breakfast while Kakashi was staring at it.
"Otou, is something the matter?", Yasaki asked
Kakashi looked up to see Yasaki, "I am thinking how to eat without removing the mask"
"..."
"Is that even possible?", asked the shocked Yasaki
Kakashi nodded, "That's why I am thinking of any possible way"
He looked at Sakumo, "You not going to say anything to that?"
Sakumo calmly ate, "No"
Yasaki looked back at Kakashi who actually ate everything in mere seconds while everyone was distracted
"How did you---
Kakashi has trouble chewing, and his jaws hurt.
Yasaki chuckled
_______
"Tou san", Kakashi said
"Hm?"
"I want to learn From you", said Kakashi
"You are only 3 now, we can do it when you are older"
He pointed at Yasaki, "He started at 2"
Sakumo sighed, as he knows that Kakashi is right, "Alright, wait for us to finish then we will go the back garden to start learning the forms"
Kakashi nodded
"Otou, Don't you want to learn from me?"
Kakashi shook his head, "No, you learned from Kaa san, That's Why I will learn from Tou san"
"..."
Yasaki smiled softly, that's right, He learned from Kaa san, someone has to learn Tou san techniques as well.
"Yasaki"
"Yes?"
"Have you remember the steps that I showed you the last time?"
"Yes"
"Go and practice that after having your Breakfast, I will teach Kakashi"
"Yes, Tou Chan"
XXXXXXX
Days passed just like that, and Yasaki was 6 already, Few more months, and Kakashi will be 4.
Yasaki smiled as he made blueberry pancakes for breakfast… Finally, he was entering the academy with Obito and Rin… and Kakashi… He had a huge fight with his tou-san about it. But Kakashi agreed and he could do nothing about it. Since even Kakashi is on Tou san's side
He scowled down at the pancake cooking in the pan. As he scooped the pancake onto a plate and poured more batter into the pan.
Kakashi came rushing in and jumped onto the counter, skidding past on his butt as he snatched up a pancake and effortlessly jumped off the end, pancake magically disappearing behind his mask
"War is on the horizon and it was the only way Kakashi was getting into the academy at such a young age… I'm sorry I failed you and Nozomi, please take care of him." Yasaki frowned at the memory.
"Kakashi, I do not appreciate you rubbing your butt along my counter and making my food disappear, sharing is caring," Yasaki said with a sigh to hold in his annoyance
"Maybe you should pay more attention… We're going to be late if you cook anymore plus you need time to eat properly." Kakashi said, one finger up in the air and his other hand on his hip with his eyes closed.
Yasaki flicked Kakashi's nose and with an annoyed yet amused pout as he covered his nose and glared at his Older Brother.
"I can do what I want, remember I'm the rule here when Otou-san isn't here. Go grab your things, we'll head out in ten minutes." Yasaki smiled as Kakashi 'eye smiled' at him and headed upstairs and he turned off the stove, hopping onto one of the bar stools and shoving a pancake messily into his mouth as he chewed.
"And don't forget to brush your teeth!" Yasaki shouted as an afterthought
Kakashi sat down silently next to Yasaki as he put his shoes on and Kakashi put his green scarf around his neck with a circular pattern on it with a line through the circles.
He stood up and Kakashi froze as Yasaki fingered the scarf with a sad smile.
Kakashi hated it when he got that look. He does not like whenever Yasaki looks sad.
As a matter of fact, Yasaki looks sad every day. Except when he was talking to Kakashi or Tou chan, but that's it, Yasaki looks so sad that Kakashi could feel the despair in his eyes.
The walk was quiet as Kakashi played with the end of his scarf.
It was given to him on his second birthday, apparently from his Tou-san but he had his suspicion when Yasaki had ripped a tag off of it before the present was given to him… Tou-san later said it was actually for Yasaki for his birthday.
The Tag that said 'Happy birthday Yasaki Chan from Kaa san'
Kakashi doesn't even know when Yasaki's birthday is either as they had never celebrated it, only they would go to the cemetery as a family and eat Yasaki's blueberry pancakes as a tradition ever since he could remember.
"Nii chan, when's your birthday?" Kakashi asked suddenly as he looked back at him with something in his blue eyes before he looked ahead again with a sigh.
"We've been over this before… I don't have a birthday because I don't want one okay?" Yasaki said, surprisingly defensively as well and Kakashi caught up to him.
"Why don't you want one?" Kakashi asked, looking up at him slightly.
"What emotion do you feel on your birthday?" He asked with a sigh as he put his hands into the pockets of his shorts.
"Happy, I guess," Kakashi answered and Yasaki seemed to frown slightly.
"I don't feel like that on my birthday which is why I want to forget about it," Yasaki said as he stared ahead.
"What happened on your birthday?" Kakashi asked and Yasaki shrugged.
"One day Kakashi, One, day," He said smiling down at him and Kakashi sighed and crossed his arms.
"Fine, I'll find out one day anyway." He huffed as they could see the academy up ahead. "I'll catch you later," Kakashi said, waving over his shoulder as he walked into the crowd and Yasaki moved to the swing and hugged Rin as she got up.
"Where's Obito?" Yasaki asked as he looked around and Rin shrugged. She wore a light-colored blouse with a bow tie in the middle and a simple sleeveless haori.
"Late like usual, I guess?" She shrugged and sat back on the swing as Yasaki stood behind her and pushed her gently… They outgrew the swing a while ago and couldn't both fit onto it anymore and so they alternated with Obito as well.
"You changed your outfit since last year, where's the girly Yasaki we use to know?" Rin teased and Yasaki smiled.
"I'm not a girl Rin"
"Well, I think it looks nice," Rin said, looking back at her friend.
"Thanks, Rin… I like the little extra war paint on your cheeks, makes you look fierce." Yasaki said and they both laughed. They looked up as kids began to enter the academy and parents began to say goodbye and the friends grinned at each other.
"Obito better hurry up otherwise he'll be seriously late this time," Rin said as he stood up and they walked towards the academy and greeted the sensei sweetly and the man actually stuttered a good morning back and they grinned evilly at each other… Making people blush, especially Obito, was their favorite pass time but what Rin didn't know was that Obito had the biggest crush on her.
"If we get separated and Obito is in one of our classes, we fetch his papers for him and meet up during break time back at the main hall, deal?" Rin asked, holding out his pinky as Yasaki linked his own with Rin's.
"Deal," Yasaki said as they sat down in the training hall and the introduction began as to what being a shinobi meant, blah, blah, blah, and how the rest of the day was going to pan out. The senseis all introduced themselves before they began to be separated into classes.
Yasaki smirked at the thought and wondered where Obito was, he had never been so late before and Yasaki was sure he wouldn't be late for this no matter what… Well, This was going to be an interesting year.
Both classes were brought back together in the main hall for lunch as Rin and Yasaki sat together quietly in the corner and spoke, wondering where Obito was as it was getting late and he was usually only an hour late and it had been three so far.
Rin was talking about this cute and mysterious boy she had in her class as Yasaki half-listened, he didn't care
"Kakashi's so handsome…" Rin said dreamily and Yasaki froze before he bit into his pancake.
"Ka…kashi?" Yasaki asked as Rin faced her friend with confusion.
"Yeah, Hatake Kakashi, why? What's wrong?" Rin asked, tilting her head as Yasaki put her pancake down and swallowed, he had lost his appetite. He looked up and smiled at Rin.
"Oh, nothing is wrong, Nothing at all," He said and Rin laughed.
"That's good, didn't want to break up our friendship over some silly little crush" Rin laughed and Yasaki laughed along awkwardly.
"Yeah, He is... quite charming for... 3-year-old?
"..."
It's really awkward.
Yasaki laughed as he bit his pancake roughly, dammit where the hell was Obito to dissipate awkward situations?
Of course, Rin wouldn't make the connection between him and Kakashi, since he never brought his friends around and avoided talking about his life, and never referred to Kakashi by name.
He said his surname so many years ago that Rin might have forgotten or thought he and Kakashi were cousins.
The bell rang for the end of lunch as a few other things were explained to them before they were allowed to go home and both Rin and Yasaki sighed as they exited towards the exit.
"Hey, Sorry I am Late", Obito said as he ran down the street
"Why were you so late?"
"Oh, I'm afraid I got lost on the path of life"
"..."
"..."
'I have only 2 friends, One has the crush on a 3-year-Old toddler, and another tells the excuses that are hard to find whether they true or not. My otou wears a mask because it's cool, and my Tou Chan is pure weird'
"..."
'I am surrounded by a bunch of weirdos'
