A Glimpse from Chapter 11.

We left off with Kakashi and Naruto doing a combo to counter Arashi’s combo. We continue from there. However, this chapter is quite long as I start to unveil the mystery behind Kakashi’s connection with Arashi’s past. So I have it in 2 parts. The second part will be posted in a reply in this same thread.


Weaving Destiny 12
Giving Up and Letting Go

“Solar wind blast” Arashi started and called out a followup technique, “solar flare combo!”

“Pft! – wind and fire combo - - Naruto!"

“Gufuu Suika no Jutsu (Water Typhoon Vortex Technique)!”

Arashi charged with a Solar Wind Blast and Flare combo, a special jutsu based on fire and wind. To counter the attack Kakashi motioned Naruto to do Water Typhoon Vortex Technique - a combination of both wind and water.

“Raging sunlight - HAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!” Arashi screamed in pain casting out the third jutsu to consume Naruto and Kakashi’s combo and charge toward them.

“Take cover!” Kakashi called out as the technique takes place.

The Raging Sunlight – first level of Arashi’s true blood limit charges the air with solar radiation to create a ball of sunlight around an area that the user targets and creates a blast of fire after consuming the target.

Consuming Kakashi and Naruto’s combo, the raging sunlight blasted at a radius of 10 meters. The pressure of the blast reached ten more meters that they have to focus their chakra to their feet for support.

“Nii-saaan!” Naruto exclaimed, worried about what is happening. From the way Arashi screamed with the last jutsu, he have a feeling that something’s not right and that Arashi needs his help – their help.

“Stop, Naruto!”

Kakashi commanded him to a halt just as a woman and a man came out of nowhere. As the effects of the blast died out and smoke cleared off the area what appeared before them was Arashi, all drained down to the last of her reserves. She was pale white and fainted to unconsciousness.

The woman sped up to stop Arashi from falling while the other man performed a few hand seals.

“Root binding technique!”

Roots sprouted out from the earth, rushing towards Team Kakashi’s location to drive them off.

“Ugh!” Kakashi fell off weakened from everything that has happened.

“Kakashi-taichou!” Sai immediately ran to assist him.

“Let’s go, Naruto!” Sakura commanded. Kakashi is in a bad condition and Sakura knew they could not risk going on and chasing after the enemies.

“Kagebunshin no Jutsu!” Trying to at least send off one of his shadow clones through the wild roots, Naruto had no plans of giving up.

“No, we’re not leaving Arashi with them!” He refused and continued to send off his shadow clones to replace those that were poof’ed out.

“Let her go, Naruto! – Earth Element: Earth Prison Wall!”

With the last of his strength, Kakashi created a prison wall to contain all four of them. In result, the roots bound the prison from the outside as the user of the technique left off to run with Saburo and the other woman who was carrying Arashi.

“Sha-na-rooo!”

After sensing that the enemies’ chakra is running off from them, Sakura punched through the prison wall and blew off earth and roots to give them an opening. Naruto rushed outside to check. Sakura, Sai, and Kakashi started to walk in the direction back to the camp.

“Why did you let them escape Kakashi-sensei?!”

Seeing that they were gone, Naruto rushed on in front of Kakashi and demanded an explanation.

Kakashi just ignored him and continued to walk on in grief. Sai followed him and walked past Naruto. Sakura gave Naruto a worried look and walked past him, too.

“So what now Kakashi-sensei?! Are you giving up?! After years of waiting and searching, you finally find her and you just give up?! Is that it?! So what happens with your teachings about friends, teamwork, and trash? Are you giving up now and turning yourself into a trash?”

After the rest had walked five meters away from him, Naruto called out accusingly to Kakashi.

In an instant Kakashi stood right up before him. His eyes burned in anger like they’ve never seen before. Kakashi was always calm and cold. If he ever scolds them, they’ve always known how to get away with it. But this time is just so different. Naruto could even feel the intensity of his anger.

“Stop acting like you know everything Naruto!” Kakashi roared.

“You think you can change the past?! You think you can bring back everything that I’ve taken away from her and just call it quits?! I caused her pain more than you could imagine! So stop with your foolishness and just let her be!”

Tears welled down Naruto’s eyes as he held on to his anger. Kakashi’s anger reached through his inner self that he trembled in fear.

“B-but, but, BUT, do you think leaving her just like that will ease out her pain?!”

With a slightly intensed tone Naruto gathered up all his courage to speak and tried talking Kakashi into going after Arashi.

“She’s all drowned and within your reach, are you letting go?!”

“I’m not hearing any more of this, Naruto!”

Storm clouds gather and darken the sky as Kakashi showed the intensity of his anger towards Naruto’s behavior. Lightning flashed in every direction in the sky and thunder roared like an angered beast.

“It’s none of your business if I should give up and let go! Now, pick up yourself! We’re heading back to the village! We have already escorted the Prince and his -- argh! --“, he grunted as he could not know what to address her now.

“Our mission is over!” Kakashi ended.

Sakura trembled with the intensity of their conversation. Before Naruto could say another word, she stood between the two of them facing Naruto.

“Hush now, Naruto,” holding Naruto’s hands, she said calmly and looked at him – concerned and worried. “Let’s settle this later, okay?”

“I’m sorry for Naruto’s behavior, Kakashi-sensei” She turned to Kakashi and gave him a worried look, too.

Kakashi wished he could disappear on his own and leave the group this very instant. But he just can’t do that. These teens are under his supervision and are his responsibility. He turned his back against Sakura and Naruto and gestured that they continue to head back to the camp.

Skye could not say a word nor can he think of anything to do. What’s more confusing was the thought that Ruirein who turns out to be Arashi passed the test as keeper of the key. Now, she seems to be in the wrong side of the river.

Naruto calmed down partly because Sakura asked him to and partly because he was shocked that for the first time, Sakura’s hand did not hit his head but rather, they pressed and held his with warmth - soothing his anger and frustration.

Next post is the start of the unveiling of the mystery behind Kakashi's connection with Arashi.

As the sun started to come up, the group continued to walk back to the camp. Slowly, one step at a time, with shoulders dropped in stress and depression the silence between them caused eerie stillness in the air.

Kakashi walked ahead of them, Skye followed next, then Naruto with Sai and Sakura on each of his side. Naruto took out something from his bag and took a deep breath.

“I found these from where Rui—Arashi-Nisan tended to my wounds yesterday.”

He said as he showed Sakura and Sai the damaged protector that he found by the tree yesterday. Sakura and Sai looked at him confused.

“I did not think that she was the one who dropped this.”

“What’s with that head protector, Naruto?” Sakura asked in a solemn tone. “And what do you know about Kakashi-sensei and Miss Ruirein?”

“Ah, back in the rendezvous point, I found Kakashi-sensei in the center of the village. Remember his story about the village?” Naruto reminded them.

“Ah” Sai nodded in reply.

“There was a column in the center of what looked like the village’s square and I just saw Kakashi-sensei fasten to it a head protector similarly damaged as this. Though that one was badly damaged more than this one. When he sensed my presence, he called me and he continued to tell me about that 8-year old girl who was believed to have been the only survivor of the village. She was Arashi, or Ruirein-Niisan as we know her.”

“Huh?!” Sakura and Sai replied in shock and so did Skye who was just close enough to hear them.

“You can join us, Skye-sama.” Naruto invited Skye and he walked more closely with them to join in.

And so the story continues…

Arashi belonged to a clan who posses Jigoku Ikari Nikkou or the Hell’s Wrath Sunlight bloodline limit. The bloodline limit covers an area that can reach up to a radius that is 10 times the height of the elevation of the possessor's forehead. It utilizes sunlight at an extremely high temperature burning, or melting everything that is within the possessor's light barrier. This went loose when Arashi witnessed her father murdered right in front of her thus, eliminating the enemies and her village at the same time.

After being rescued, Arashi grew up in Konoha and finally decided to fight for her own existence. She trained in the academy and topped everyone else. Despite her strong will and determination, deep inside, she still is vulnerable and fragile to the harsh world of shinobi. This caused her to once again release the power that destroyed her village.

Luckily, one of the jounins was able to stop the incident and saved Konoha. Sandaime and Yondaime decided to seal her powers and she was willing to do so, too. She knew deep inside that she could not handle it, too. The only way to seal her powers is by using the seal of the lightning phoenix. But the lightning phoenix challenges anyone who wishes to make contract with him. It would be a challenge of speed and endurance. This requires a lightning elemental shinobi who can see through the deflections caused by its speed and would have the right amount of chakra to endure its powers.

The challenger would need to see through the lightning phoenix’s path, stop it with the right timing and contain it inside him. The lightning phoenix would consume a particularly large amount of the challenger’s chakra to complete the contract.

There was only one in Konoha who can do this but he was still very young. With his acquired ability, he would be able to see the lightning phoenix’s path but he may not be able to bear its power. But he was willing to risk anything to protect Konoha and Arashi. So, he and Arashi trained hard for the sealing and went together in missions at the same time. He was put in charge of her since he was the only one who could stop Arashi’s power should she go wild again.

Their last mission together caused Arashi’s head protector to be damaged so he exchanged his with hers. They went on a mission together with a new gennin who introduced himself to be Arashi’s cousin. The mission turned out to be a plot by Saburo who was after Arashi’s powers.

Saburo has the ability to control another’s abilities with his mind-memory submission technique. He intends to take Arashi and use her as a weapon to regain their clan and their village. Saburo was the traitor who gave out the information about the village in his desire to rule over the village instead.

Fortunately, Kakashi was able to figure out the plot so they tried to escape. However, as he calculated theirs and Saburo’s speed, Saburo would be able to catch up with them before they could reach Konoha. If Saburo gets a hold of Arashi, everyone would be in grave danger. So, as they escaped from the dangerous plans of Saburo, they decided to seal off her powers at that very night. But their plan failed and he lost her. There was no trace of her so everyone believed that light consumed and dissolved her.

“The only jounin who have that ability back then was Kakashi-taichou.” Sai concluded at the end of Naruto’s story. “So he was the jounin that he told us after all. He failed to make a contract with the Lightning Phoenix.

"And so he failed to perform the seal and protect Arashi?” Sakura added.


“Ah, that’s right.” Naruto confirmed. “But he continued to believe that she was alive and would one day return to the village. Every day, he waits for her by his window during sunrise and continued to hope to find her wherever he goes.”

“Then, he must be very affected with everything that is happening now.” Sakura said with a somber voice.

“Right,” Naruto sighed. “I should have thought twice before I acted on him that way. We all know that like us, Kakashi-sensei values his friends and team mates a lot, too.”

Finally arriving back in the camp, Skye continued to ponder about Naruto’s story. Once again, he believed that Ruirein (Arashi) is indeed the rightful protector of the key to the crown of Australis.

But Kakashi just declared a while ago that they will be returning to Konoha. Surely he can’t just leave her behind. If she is just under some mind-memory submission technique then, he must find a way to free her from that technique. He would need this team’s assistance. He must convince Kakashi to help him get Arashi back. His country needs the protector of the key to the Crown of Australis.

It was a long and tiring night for everybody, and for Kakashi, it was more. Kneeling over a nearby stream, his back against the camp (and the readers, too :p:D), he took off his mask and splashed water into his face. A thing that he never does with people around him – even if he was a hundred meters away from them.

With a heavy pressure, he ran his palms down his face as he tries to conceal the tears falling down his eyes. Strange that this time, it was his right eye who gave in first and then the left. Obito have been a crybaby that even the eye he left him would cry for him. This time though was different. It was like he cried first and Obito cried with him.

Sensing that a group is approaching him, he dried his face and put on his mask again.

“I-I’m sorry, Kakashi-sensei.” Naruto said in a remorse tone. “I-I’m sorry with everything that I’ve said back there. I should have known better –“

“It’s okay Naruto.” Kakashi glanced sideways and took a deep breath. “I overreacted, too.”

He stood up and grabbed Naruto by the neck and held him close to him.

“It seems that I’ve taught you well about friends, team, and teamwork.” He smiled and ruffled his hair. “I’m proud of you, Naruto!”

“Ehehehe” Naruto said scratching the back of his head after Kakashi let go of him.

“I’m so proud of you guys.” Kakashi said addressing Sakura and Sai, too.

“Teamwork, ha. Hmmm…” Sai mumbles as he browsed for an answer in his book.

Everyone laughed as they watch Sai’s ever curios, expressionless pale face search through his book for something that will teach him about just anything about bonds, friendship, women, men, and feelings.

"Ahhhh! Dear Lord, Sai!" Naruto exclaimed. :T_T:

END OF CHAPTER TWELVE​


Next chapter will be another action packed chapter as Kakashi relays the details of that night.

EDIT: I would like to thank one of my friends, Princesss who helped me review this chapter. I was quite lost with my own mysteries and her reviewing this chapter helped me finalize this.
Of course, to all those who have been reviewing each release of my chapter, you all have been a real inspiration for me to continue. So to all who've been reading my story, thank you for patiently reading each release. This story is nearing its end so I hope you'll hold on with me to end. :)

Wha?! A fast reader, you are then! LOLZ!

OAV or OVA? Hahaha....well, I'm doing some sort of a Gaiden but I doubt if I would still be posting it. If I won't then, I'll just send them to you if want.

The mystery ain't that really over yet. There's more to unveil as Kakashi relays the story of that night. Something that Sai knew but Kakashi did not realize. :D

"A powerful Fanfic! Making you astonished every second you read."- FallenUchiha Straits Time

What a nice chapter you had made! Everything is written nicely and fully detailed. You are making me speechless again! Congratulation that you have gotten this far! And of course I am here to support you to continue the next chapter!

So you actually tell out the flashback about Kakashi and Rurein or better known as Arashi, during their past. So Arashi is from a clan that possesed the KK known as the Crown of Australis, am I right? Then somehow the village was attacked and she was the only that survived. She was then was sent to Konoha and she meet a young Jounin named Kakashi that promised her to seal the KK that she possessed since she is too young to handle the power. I see...now I can see the full picture of this story you made. Its awesome, please don't stop like how I did to my L4D xd Continue!!

Yay! you had to write it in big bold letters? :eek: I'm not that good you know. I must say though that I really like how this story have gone on. Hehehehe... :eek:

Hmn, you missed a little about the crown. The Crown of Australis is handed over to the Clover Country - the one where they are heading to with Skye. The Key to the crown is handed over to Skye's country - The Yellow Country. To be a guardian of the key, a mortal must pass a test of power and pureness of the heart. Arashi - known to Skye as Ruirein, passed the test. Thus, she is the current guardian of the key.

The KG! Oh noes! I forgot to tell that here...It was Arashi's KG that destroyed their village and not the crown. :D Arashi's KG went loose after she sees her father murdered in front of her...

Oh I see! So if Im not mistaken, Arashi's KG is somekind of sun/light element right? Well, Arashi is you actually lol xd But I really like this character, just not know why...maybe seeing your Tifa Signature helps me to picture up Arashi

Arashi's KG, sunlight? yes - I added that in after reading your post. I forgot to add so, not your fault in missing that part though.
Arashi, Me? no - hahahaha...though she must've resembled some of my traits - as I invest most of my emotions on her. Not to mention my Kakashi - craziness! :eek::pxd:D

As for her looks, yep I like the way Tifa looks - similar to Arashi - sweet, gentle, but tough and silly. I did try to draw her but I just can't. Here's the latest outline of her though. Done in CS5. I dunno how to render the colors yet. :(

You must be registered for see images

Somewhere in the next chapters though, I'll post my drawing of her in KG mode. :)

... ... ... Speechless.... I'm just absolutely speechless....

You're not only improving with each chapter, you're also becoming more and more like a true Naruto history creator... You secretly work with the animators or what?:p Or maybe even Masashi Kishimoto sensei?:eek:

What Fallen just did with that magazine input was exactly what this chapter deserved... He always beats me to it for some reasonxd

So one mystery left eyy?

Tell me if I'm wrong, but as Kakashi was trying to seal her ability, wasen't her boyfriend or something getting involved, thus leading to his death as he tried to stop it or something?

Is that the last mystery or am I on the road driving blindfolded here?:p

Anyway, keep up the great work and sorry once again for the late reply. But at least I got the inspiration I needed now, so I better start myself:pxd;)

Working with the animators and Kishi? - I kinda heard that before, didn't I? :p

Ah, yeah. As far as Arashi remembers, that young man who came rushing off to her was someone she loved and have known to have protected her all her life. You must've forgotten that Arashi was seeing flashes of lightning and was hearing the sound of a thousand birds in her vision. So off to the next chapter are the details of that night. ;)

Thanks, then. Looking forward for your chapter, too!
