The Mirror Effect (Kakashi Love Story) INFO

The young boy walked through the dark house barefoot, shivering in the chill of the night air. He could hear a quiet sobbing coming from the room ahead. He slowly approached the door to the room, hesitating slightly before sliding it open. On the floor in the centre of the room was a small girl crying into her hands. He stepped towards her confused. She looked up, terrified. When she saw who it was though, she started screaming and raced towards him, lashing out viciously. He shouted for her to stop but she wouldn’t. She just kept hitting him, screaming at him, "YOU DID THIS!! DIE! DIE!"

I felt the scream escape my throat as I woke up with my heart pounding and my chest heaving as I gasped for air. My head felt ready to explode and tears were forming in my eyes, partly from the pain, partly from the memory of that little girls face. My head began throbbing fiercely and I laid back down on the cold hard ground. The world was spinning round and round viciously, the ground heaving like a boat caught in a storm. I felt myself lose consciousness gradually until the world around me went black.

OTHER POV

"Hey! Kakashi-Sensei! Look, a girl!"

"She looks hurt."

"No... she's not hurt. She IS unconscious though. Hold on, she's coming round."

HIMITSU’S POV

I felt the world return to me again and I could hear voices in the distance. They were muffled but as consciousness cam back more, they became clearer and louder.

"She IS coming round," a girl's voice said.

I opened my eyes slowly and saw a blonde boy leaning over me, grinning.

I gasped when I realised how close he was.

"Don't touch me!" I screamed, scrambling backwards. I felt my back slam into something and looked round. Two legs stood there. I directed my gaze upwards with my eyes following them until they fell upon a face.

KAKASHI'S POV

I was walking along reading my book and listening to the loud voices of my subordinates bickering. Ever since we'd left the Village they'd been like this. I sighed.

"Hey! Kakashi-Sensei! Look, a girl!" yelled Naruto, the no.1 guy for surprising people, despites appearances.

"She looks hurt." Sakura shouted running after Naruto towards the figure lying on the floor.

"No... She’s not hurt. She IS unconscious though." I replied examining her from a distance. "Hold on, she's coming round."
I jumped into a tree nearby and watched the 'goings on' below. You can never be too careful.

My students had found what seemed to be a young girl. I couldn't tell for sure what she looked like; she had a long cloak on with a large hood partially covering her face. Why was she unconscious? And why was she out here in the forest?

HIMITSU’S POV

My eyes fell upon a face. It belonged to a young boy of about 14. He stared down at me calmly, his blue/black hair falling over his face. He stared at me calmly.

I looked back down to where I had touched him. Luckily he was wearing legwarmers I noticed sighing inwardly.

P.S. This story is set just before Sasuke goes off to find power.

A pink haired girl ran over to me, knelt next to me and smiled.

I felt myself warming to her and the corners of my mouth started to turn upwards into a smile. But no, I thought, I've made that mistake before. She's getting too close I realised. I could see her, she was going to touch me.
I shouted again, "DON'T TOUCH ME!" as I backed away from her. She looked like she was going to say something but I wasn't going to wait! I got onto my feet, turned and ran. Behind me I could hear them calling to me. I looked over my shoulder. The blonde boy was chasing after me and the pink-haired girl wasn't far behind. I kept running through the trees trying to find somewhere to hide, a sanctuary from my pursuers. I fell down on my knees, my head was still painful after all and I had been out of it for, as far as I can tell, quite a while.

"Why are you running?" a voice said.

Ok so he's not stood up exactly but ya get the picture.)

I looked up and saw a man stood in a tree in front of me. His face was covered with a mask and a forehead protector (I'd seen those somewhere before) so that all I could see was his right eye and a mass of silver white hair. I was sure he hadn't been there a few seconds ago. I could usually sense it when people were around.
He watched me constantly never once wavering.

I heard the others run up behind me through the undergrowth, but I couldn't stop staring at this person in the tree.

Yay! Kakashi. :D

"I'm Uzumaki Naruto!" shouted the blonde haired guy. "Who are you?"

I stayed silent. No point in introducing myself, besides I didn't trust them. I got up off the floor and stood, defying them to come any closer.

The white haired guy jumped down off the tree branch and started walking towards me. He got closer and closer. I started to freak out. I couldn't back away from him; the others were behind me. What could I do? I had to get away.
I could tell he was about to talk to me but I had other ideas. As hard as I could I ran towards him and rammed my elbow into his stomach. He fell hard on his back. I think he was more shocked at my action rather than I was strong enough to bowl him over. I stood over him for a second feeling regret at what I had just done, then ran past him turning briefly to the others to say sorry.

Then I ran the fastest I've ever run, into the trees.

KAKASHI'S POV

This girl had just shoved me onto the floor, said sorry (!) and ran off. What was that? I wasn't going to hurt her, she must have known that, mustn't she? I was only going to talk to her, see if she was O.K. I mean we did find her lying on the floor UNCONCIOUS. But before I could even say anything she had me on the floor, in shock and a little embarrased at not dodging it!
Well she would be long gone now. Why had I fallen so easily tho? My stomach is hurting, she must be pretty strong. And she's really quick, she ran out of here so fast it was hard to see her. I wonder...

"Kakashi-Sensei!" Two of my subordinates ran up to me - Naruto and Sakura. Sasuke, the moody boy with a murderous intent you could sense, followed closely behind not saying a word.

"I'm fine," I said getting up, "let's continue with our mission, we'll soon be there."

We continued on our way, the others starting to argue again. I tried to read, only I couldn't get that girl out of my head. Was she?

HIMITSU'S POV

I ran for what seemed like hours until I noticed the sun was beginning to set. I hate the night. Things always seem so much worse at night.
I slowed down as I came out to a clearing. The sun had been shining on this clear patch of woodland all day so it felt warm. My body felt sore from the running and I was exhausted. My head began to throb again.

"I mustn't sleep," I thought. The dreams would come back if I slept. I gave in to the weariness in my legs tho and sat down against a tree that was bathed in the last few rays of sunlight. Sleep began to take over as I lay there and before I knew it the beautiful landscape before me disappeared as my eyelids fell.

=============================

KAKASHI'S POV

We were on our way home from our mission. It had been a success... JUST. Naruto as usual had to do more than required and got us into more bother than was first anticipated.

Sasuke was the one who worried me though. His attitude was getting more and more dark lately. He was beginning to get more violent and hungry for power. That seal must be affecting him more than I hoped it would. I fear he is going to do something dangerous. Sakura is getting worried too. She's already voiced her concerns many times. I sighed and turned my attention back to my book.

"Kakashi - Sensei! Isn't that where we found that girl?" shouted Naruto, running up.

"yes." I said pretending to be very involved in reading. Surprisingly but luckily he stopped there and went back to bothering Sakura.

O.K. I've just read the same page THREE times and I have no idea what it said! Why can't I focus?
I put my book away, my thoughts turning to the day we met the cloaked girl. She'd been on my mind since then. Her strength and speed, and those eyes...
