alternate forms of communication.”

Hush
Prologue
Humming pleasantly the brown-haired man strolls down the
street, glancing at various shops as they turn on their lights for the evening.
He nods in greeting at various shopkeepers and passers by occasionally
exchanging a word or two. When he passes by a ramen stand though, he stops,
blush highlighting the scar across his nose when his stomach rumbles, and
murmurs, “Ichiraku. . .” He contemplates for a moment then chuckles, “It’ll be
a nice surprise for him.” Mind made up he slips under the flaps at the
entrance.
The shopkeeper smiles warmly, “Welcome! What
would you like today Iruka?”
Iruka smiles, “Two bowls, to go.”
“Treating Naruto again?” The
shopkeeper busies himself in preparing the ramen, gesturing for Iruka to sit down to wait.
Settling at the counter, Iruka nods
and then sighs wistfully, “Yes, and this way I won’t end up with an empty
wallet. Tomorrow Naruto officially becomes a genin and gets assigned his team. Even though he was a
handful I’ll miss having him as a student.”
~
Across town a blond-haired boy, dressed in orange, stops on
the steps of an apartment building and suddenly sneezes. “Someone must be
talking about me. . .” Naruto sniffs and rubs his
nose, continuing up the steps, “Hope it’s something good.” With a cheery smile Naruto moves to the door to his apartment, nearly bouncing
with excitement, “First I’ll have ramen for dinner and then I’ll go to bed
early!” Unlocking the door he laughs, “That way I’ll be wide awake tomorrow!
I’m finally gonna be a ninja!” The enthusiastic blond
slips into the dark apartment and suddenly stops, a frown flickering over his
features, “Something’s. . .”
“I’ve been waiting for you, monster fox.” A silver-haired
man, hair hanging lankly around his face, appears out of the shadows behind Naruto, his voice twisted with hate.
“Mizu—ugh!”
Naruto turns and starts to speak but the man vanishes
and a hand grabs Naruto’s chin, forcing the boy back
and exposing his throat. The kunai in the man’s other hand glitters in the
sliver of light coming through the partially open door and there is a small
splash of blood. For the briefest moment there is only a thin line of blood
bisecting Naruto’s throat but as his attacker moves
in front of him Naruto collapses to his knees and the
blood seems to blossom, quickly soaking the collar of his jacket, even as his
hands come up in a vain attempt to stop the flow. Blue eyes stare up with
confusion and shock and Naruto’s gasping breaths
bubble through the even cut. His mouth, a little blood staining his tongue and
lips, forms noiseless words as he falls back, ‘Mi-Mizuki-sensei?
How?’
For a minute the only sound to break the silence is the
gurgle of Naruto’s choking breaths, creating a faint foam around the slit, as Mizuki
smirks down at the bleeding boy. Then Mizuki laughs,
“You ruined my plans to get the scroll so I thought I’d give you a little
present before I left for another village.” He crouches down, cruelly jerking Naruto up, the bruises on his face coming into the band of
light, “You got lucky the first time, little monster, but you’re no match for
the likes of me.” Mizuki laughs again, “I’m actually
doing Konoha a favor by killing you. Maybe they’ll
even thank me for getting rid of the monster fox.” His gloating is cut short
however as he notices the wound on Naruto’s throat
beginning to close, wisps of red chakra hovering around it. With a growl he
forces Naruto down, dripping kunai raised, “Damn you!
I won’t let you heal, demon!”
Naruto struggles weakly and
manages to get his arms up, taking the brunt of the first blow. Mizuki, though, doesn’t stop at one slice and hacks away at
Naruto’s throat with mad abandon. The blows overlap
and crisscross, some as high up as right underneath Naruto’s
ear and others nicking his collar bones. As the assault continues Naruto’s hands fall away giving Mizuki
full access to the torn throat. Red chakra hisses through the rapidly
multiplying wounds but can’t keep up with the damage. As Naruto’s
tear filled eyes start to cloud and his lips turn blue through the coating of
blood, Mizuki crows in triumph, “Die, filthy fox!” He
stops slicing and stabs the mutilated flesh a few times before rising
nervously, hearing a noise outside, and fleeing. Naruto
lies on the floor, tears dripping down his cheeks and chest heaving in an
attempt to get some air through the mess of torn flesh and blood.
~
Iruka grins as he trots up the
steps, the take out containers of ramen clutched in his arms. His ponytail
bounces in rhythm with his steps and his soft brown eyes sparkle with
merriment. “Won’t Naruto be surprised!”
As he approaches the door to Naruto’s apartment,
however, his steps slow and he frowns at the open door. “Naruto? I brought you ramen.” Iruka
pushes the door open voice laced with worry, “Naruto?”
As the door swings open light fills the dark apartment falling
on the sprawled body of Naruto on the ground. He lies
in a pool of blood, jacket so soaked the original colors are impossible to
tell. Where his throat should be there is only an unrecognizable pulp with
flickers of red chakra trying desperately to heal the damage. His chest still
moves but only in short spasms, each accompanied by a wheezing gurgle.
The ramen in Iruka’s hands drops
to the floor, noodles and broth mixing with trickles of sticky blood. His mouth
opens but nothing comes out and in a flash he is at Naruto’s
side, shaking hands hovering over Naruto, unsure. Iruka’s breath is strangled in a sob, “Naruto!”
as tears gather in his eyes.
Naruto’s eyes open, clouded with
fear and pain, and he twitches slightly, a flinch too weak to move his body.
Then his eyes clear and his bloody lips twist into the faintest ghost of a
smile. A bloody hand comes up, flopping against Iruka’s
cheek without strength and then sliding off. With a gurgling exhalation Naruto’s eyes close and he goes limp, hand flopping to the
ground with a wet sound.
“Naruto, don’t--! Naruto! Naruto!!” Iruka’s keening scream echoes
through the apartment as the bereft man gathers the bloody boy in his arms,
another wordless scream following as the blond head lolls. “Don’t die. Not after
how hard you worked! Naruto!!” With a desperate gleam in his eyes Iruka
stands and blurs out the door, murmuring, “Hospital.”
Cyber-“And
that is the end of the prologue. I know the injuries might seem a little much
but I figure that anything less could be handled by the kyuubi’s
chakra. Anyway, please leave reviews and I’ll see you next chapter, should you
want one. Ja ne!”
