Secrets 32

Yea, Ive been gone for 3 months so less chit chat and more story haha.

It had become clear for Kakashi, he was likely to be the next candidate for the title Hokage. He was right.

Right that moment, he was standing in front of the Fire Daimyo and other various noblemen. He stood cooly in front of them, awaiting further news. He dreaded taking the place one reason being that he personally felt he wasn't suited and the other his deep secret of being a "kage" to an entire demon village.

It was then his lively friend who burst into the room announcing Tsunade's awakening. All shocked and relieved, the tension of deciding the next leader was over. The village had their rightful leader back.

Kakashi would think back to how he had led his village in the past, how he wore his standard attire everyday in the cosy office. He remembered how he would go out for a stroll alone, away from Hikuryo's mischiefs and his other staff member's chitter chatter.

The village was like any other village, streets homes or clan estates, clearings with playgrounds and various stalls or shops. Demons, disguised as people, walked about like normal people buying and going on with their lives. If a human were to set foot here, he would be fooled himself.

The village was peaceful, undetectable by humans regardless of their various special abilities, unless the demon village wanted to be known afterall. The village was hidden behind a jutsu that had been cast by the Kage of the village, in the present moment, Kakashi. So powerful and dangerous that it requires the Kage's signature or identification to "operate".

The villager's made no fuss about this, since they too were just as weak as people. Not all had the power that matched ninja's at all, in fact the same range as human civilians. These demons were simply monsters with the sane souls of humans, reincarnated into the bodies of demons, keeping their higher thinking losing their past memories as people for the sake of protection this demon village provided.

The bodies of monsters were simply a medium for Human souls that seeked "immortality", long life to be exact.

As Kakashi made his way to the steamboat restaurant in the present human life, he was greeted by Gai's blinding smile.

The giant toad appeared in a giant swirl of dust as it leaped away from the giant fireball coming at top speed.

Jiraiya and the toad landed in a pile of what used to be, a forest.

Without time to recover, Kakashi had leapt, as high, as far as the giant toad. Kakashi flipped and was about to land onto the toad's head heavily.

That was when a long slimy masculine tongue grabbed him by the arms, coiling around him and restraining him. Kakashi's gasped in shock as the tougue squeezed him tighter.

The toad in front of him disappeared in puffs of smoke.

"Henge!"

Kakashi turned his head back and saw Jiraiya with his arms crossed standing on top of the toad's head.

"Gamabunta, give me some oil." He said indifferently. The toad sensing the seriousness of the situation immediately complied.

Fire release: Toad Oil Flame Bullet!

The flames hit the silver haired man, causing him to howl in pain, falling towards the ground in a burning heap.

Kakashi lay on his back, the flames now extinguished with his own black coloured flames. His hair was frizzled, slightly burnt. His clothing was burnt with small dark brown holes in them. He lay there, staring into the sky, arms and feet sprawled out. He didn't shout or whatever with the burns on his back that did hit him.

The giant shadow of the frog loomed over Kakashi's limp form. Jiraiya leapt down, careful in manoeuvring near Kakashi who stil hadn't moved an inch.

"Kakashi… I will ask you again, why are you doing this." Jiraiya asked him slowly. They were alone in the woods for the moment. The others had not caught up yet.

Kakashi stared at Jiraiya.

He looks just like father…

Kakashi's gaze softened as memories flowed back.

There was a reason why the demon village was so heavily protected.

In the past, humans had studied various demons from faraway. These were not the "human-minded" versions of demons, but the monstrous and destructive ones. The humans decided to kill them off, using special jutsu's that exiled their souls permanently providing them with the bodies of demons.

However, there were less demons than humans. Humans who were incapable of acquiring a demon body envied those who did. They segregated, the humans constantly attempting to steal a bit of a demon's benefit's.

They always failed as the demons were powerful and much smarter than they were. The demon village was extremely civilised due to the fact that they had segregated themselves from the world, forming a near perfect society.

That was until Kakashi and Hikuryo was born.

The two born demons, these possessing stunning chakra, wandered off out of their village. They observed the humans together, everyday, seeing how they lived, happily, angrily, sadly. They witnessed countless battles, not wars. They were small because the humans were not very powerful. Each clan had equal amounts of chakra.

There was a day, when the demons ventured too far. Hikuryo had gone home but a curious kakashi looked on at the night village. Caught by the humans in a nearby clan estate. Kakashi was trapped.

They locked him up in a cellar, chained him up in shackles, in a damp cold and filthy den underground. The air was stuffy and Kakashi was all scruffy. How they knew he was "different" he didn't know. It could have been the way his eyes glowed a deep red.

The people had called him Monster constantly, laughing at his weepish figure.

Kakashi was too small to fightback under their torture. Experiment after experiment to harness the power he possessed.

Time flew by and all of a sudden. He was in the same den with his parents now dead on the floor. His parents did not posses the power that he had, they did not have a mix of 2 demons. Kakashi couldn't remember anything on how they got there all he could do was shriek and pull at his shackles till his wrist bled.

It was when the guards kicked his parent's corpses that he discover the hidden chakra he had. The chakra killed the guards instantaneously. He ran off. Back to the village he lived.

He was never a child again.

Obito breathed in and out slowly. It was a lot of information to take in. To interpret in fact.

The other ninja's sped off in Jiraiya's direction. He finally pushed himself up and moved as well.

Just what were his visions supposed to tell him?

As Obito walked, constant headaches hit him. Visions of various demon rituals taking place.

It was too much. His vision blurred and his legs buckled sending him crashing to the ground.

"I can't be weak. Not in front of Kakashi. No way. This is for him."

Kakashi jerked uwards, his chakra binding Jiraiya by the neck. Jiraiya started choking in shock, being lifted up a few feet above the ground.

Kakashi was crying.
