Stuck in a Stone Ocean.

[Yoshi]

Mokuba was silently waiting, his impatience showed when he twitched every so often inside his home. Today was a solemn day for him, an, anniversary of sorts. It was four years ago, on this exact day that he was humiliated. The person who had done it was and uchiha boy who's name escaped him. His eyes, shifted, scanning the room, making sure to take in the entirety of his small apartment.

His lips parted as he spoke to himself. " Why. . why is fate so cruel."

His words, they sliced through the silence, and, bounced off of his walls in a small echo. It was a constant obsession, a small ba-dump sound came from his heart. The thought of that Uchiha boy, and, the power he effortlessly exuded. Mokuba, twisted his mouth, it was a horrible frown from his feelings being mixed up. He wanted to know what he really wanted the power or the person with the power.

Knock - Knock

A sound at the door roused him from his mixed feelings. " Who could that be? I didn't expect someone so early."

His body, automatically stood up in a fighting position. The memories blinded his movements as he slowly made it to the door. His ninjato was held with his left hand, gripped so tightly it had made his hand white from loss of circulation in that area. When he was finally at his door, he spoke, in a commanding tone.

"Who is it? And what is it you want?"

There was a long pause, which unsettled him further. Yet before he could retreat back to his bed the person responded. " I'm sorry for taking so long. I had to drop this package umm could you please come out and sign for it."

From what Mokuba could hear the person sounded almost winded. His body, no longer retreating speed up a bit. His ninjato, was thrown carelessly over his bed as he decelerated to a stop in front of the door.

Reaching for the door, wasn't a problem, it was the awkward way, he opened it, slowly. His eyes, opened wide, at seeing the person before him.

" Are you gonna stand right there? Or get this package idiot." Mokuba's body began to shiver in fear. The dread he felt earlier was no on overdrive. The uchiha he had hated for so long was now at his front door. His first thought was maybe this was a hallucination brought on by stress.

And that there was a regular guy there and not "him". Before Hayabusa could move the boy spoke again. "Tch. Useless then and Useless now. Move outta the way while I push this in." Mokuba obediently moved out of the way as the Uchiha boy pushed the package inside.

"S-so what are you doing here?" Mokuba's words were dripping with fear as he spoke to the boy.

The Uchiha boy's eyes narrowed at the shivering Hayabusa boy. He spoke, in a gentle tone towards Hayabusa. "Mokuba, don't tell me you still hate me. I was just trying to toughen you up. Why won't forgive your friend Azazel." Hayabusa's lips curled, giving his face a disgusted look. His memories did not betray him this time, and, those "toughening" up sessions still scarred his mind.

"Screw you! I'll never forgive a piece of shit like you." Hayabusa's anger had boiled to a point it exploded, and, fueled his harsh words. His hated for this man standing before him was incredible to say the least. And in a flash Mokuba went for his Ninjato, as he released it from it's sheath he was pushed backwards onto the bed. Azazel has unleashed his third tomoe and looked directly at the boy.

"Come on! It's been three years. I was a little screwed up then because of the deaths of my mother and brother. I needed to vent my anger on the world and sadly you were in my way. . . just forgive me please."

Mokuba freed his right hand, pulling it as far back as he could to grab at his chain whip. Azazel noticed this and backed up getting off both Mokuba and the bed. His eyes, red with the sharingan, were saddened by the display. Yet, Mokuba felt in the very core of his being that Azazel would need to die by his hands for the crimes that were committed onto him.

"Get. . . Get Out. . NOW!!!!" His rage on the edge of causing him to tear up in a blind fury. Sensing that events weren't moving as he had hoped Azazel began to walk away towards the door. His voice soft and almost a whisper. " I'm sorry. . . one day you'll realize how sorry I am. . . "

When the door was closed Mokuba almost lost his sanity. The memories of what happened to him flooded his mind and causing him to ache with bloodlust. It was a new feeling, the want to kill someone so utterly and completely.

The feeling scared Mokuba to a point he shook his head trying to eliminate those thoughts from himself. He needed something to calm his mind before he did something he regretted.

His body swiftly ran towards the door. In a flurry of movements the door was opened, he went through, and then closed it again. The target direction was to get to the mission center and gain something to encase his sanity once again.

His thoughts were so jumbled he didn't realize that he was absentmindedly going through the walkways of konohagakure."That bastard! I just want him to just die. . . I. . I need something to do!!!"

His mind suddenly shifted it's focus on the mission compound. The speed of Mokuba's movements had gotten faster and faster as the mission center had gotten closer and closer to him. The wind washed over his body encasing him in a refreshingly cold feeling. Sounds of a drum filled his head, yet those sounds changed into his heartbeat and slowly were tuned down until he was finally standing in front of the compound.

Hayabusa was still angered when he entered the mission compound. His mind focused on killing any and all things in his way. The handler of the documents the secretary immediately assigned him a C rank. T there were no words exchanged, just terrible glances. The rest was utterly a blur of fury as he left the compound.

15 minutes later

His mind was no longer a haze of white light surrounding a sever case of tunnel vision. The boy was calming down, his rage "high" was disappearing. His eyes, began to roll around the area he was within. It was the hidden leaf forest, an, area outside of konohagakure. He stopped traveling, his mind began to calculate the distance he had just gone and where he was.

Sadly, the area looked nothing like what he had seen before. The tree's within the area were leveled to a point a giant circle of pure dirt was around. Hayabusa's instinct's kicked in at that moment. This area looked like something with either incredible strength had run through here or allot of strong creatures.

" I guess the mission begins here. . . dang it . . . if I had still been angry I might have died. . . my feelings must die so I can be a successful ninja." His voice full of sadness and a hint of rage. His body flew three meters into the air before falling thirteen meters to the ground. His landing was typical, a bend of the knee's on the moment of impact to reduce the damage to nothing and to stand up straight afterwards.

Dawn had approached, the scenery basking in the dying glow of the sun. Every ninja knew as time wore on the missions they carried would become harder. Forests like these typically seemed to show and eternal night like atmosphere. Yet, the bulldozed-like section allowed much of it's light to shine a way for hayabusa to track down the beasts. Luckily for Hayabusa the beasts left a nice trail leading towards what seemed to be konohagakure.

"Crap, when I spaced out earlier they must have left. . . I gotta find the- His thoughts were cut off, as a gigantic screech filled the area. Whatever it was seemed to be twenty meters above his current position. He looked upwards to see his fate, it was a giant mutation. " so that's why she gave me this mission. It was to kill me!!!

[/i]" The creature was green and dragonfly-like in nature. Hayabusa was noticed by the creature as it screeched again, yet, this time the call seemed to be for more allies which was unknown to Hayabusa.

"Of course, I have to fight the big green whatever the hell that is."As the worlds were being spoken he jumped towards the outer rim of the destroyed forest. Narrowly missing the head on charge of the gigantic dragonfly creature. The intensive winds caused a sort of stream line effect which Hayabusa was pulled into.

"Grr. . . you're pushin all the wrong buttons on a bad day!!!!" His hand, went for his back pulling his ninjato from his sheath as he tumbled through the forest. With all of his strength, a singular downward thrust, was placed into the ground. This move allowed him to quickly switch to a reversed grip on the blade to pull himself against the opposing forceful winds.

The tumble disoriented him for a second. But his senses were regained almost instantly when the sounds of massive hoof prints were heard a couple of meters from his position. After pulling his ninjato from the ground Hayabusa looked in all directions before realizing it was right behind him. Jumping with all the strength he had was the only option.

The jump was a backwards facing flip which allowed him to get a look at the large deer he tried to jumped over. The antler caught his buckled up sleeve and caused him to spin once again out of control this time onto the bucks body. "Okay, screw this joke already I'm not your damn doll!!!" His blade swatted at the beast, slashing into his back leaving a large laceration. Using his left hand he sprung from it's body with a cartwheel landing flat on his feet.

Hayabusa placed his blade back into his sheath. As he did so the enraged buck turned around roaring before it began to kick back it's left forefoot. That signaled the change in Hayabusa's demeanor it was a confrontation where it was him or his enemy. This was the worst thing when fighting as a ninja taking a life. " Ichi,Nii,San,Shii, Go. . . Fire Style: Mythical Fire Phoenix Jutsu!!! "

His hands, counted out the Zodiac Signs needed to complete the chakra concentration for this deadly jutsu. The deer charged as he screamed out the name of the ninjutsu directed towards it. Hayabusa pulled his upper body back also inhaling a large amount of air before pushing forward exhaling a large ball of pure katon. The path it was forced down was the same linear path the buck was charging. It saw the ball of flames and shifted it's weight hoping to miss the ball completely.

Yet, Hayabusa fired two more shifting all third of there directions as he stood still. The first slammed into the back of the foreleg completely coating it in searing flames. This caused it to fall slightly before the other two exploded in a glorious fire all over it's body. The fur turned black immediately, the creature whipped around furiously before trying to charge again this time six meters away. Hayabusa didn't need another jutsu he knew the beast would die before it made it but it still bothered him.

The creature still charged, this caused him to jump out of the way causing the inflamed buck to crash horribly into a tree completely destroying it's skull with a full force smash. The tree it hit shook with a furious might before calming down. The horrible screech could be heard again from the dragonfly. Hayabusa deduced from the bucks amazing rage was that the sound from the fly seemed to control them sending the large animals into a horrid flurry. This caused his guilt to soar for killing the majestic creature behind him.

Rage, a simplistic yet so complicated concept seemed to fill Hayabusa's body. The dragonfly was his main target for all his aggression. Yet, his body felt so tired from using up so much chakra on a simple technique. Luckily the creature seemed to sense his tired disposition and decided to attack once again. The only good idea was for him to run which he did directly into the forest causing the creature to give chase overhead.

The creature screeched happily, it realized immediately that it's next meal was just around for the picking. On the other hand had another idea for the creature but it would take and extreme risk on his part. The low chakra and exhaustion he felt was starting to get to him so after the burst of energy he would be completely tired.

His body, sluggishly began to hop between tree branch to branch building enough momentum to launch himself at the ground as bait for the dragonfly-like creature. The plan also caused for him to slice his arm slightly. After hoping almost 10 meters back towards the dead patch of land the winds of the giant creature could be felt.


The creature diverged from his plan almost like it caught wind somehow and instead of flying lower it climbed higher screeching again."Shit, it's doing that stuff again. . if I don't stop it I'm dead. . . wait the reason why it is calling for help is because it thinks I'm engaging it. If I run away it'll see me as pray again and let down its guard again!"

Hayabusa changed directions and just like his predictions the beast stopped screeching and followed. The more he accelerated the lower the creature got before it slammed through the canopy top. Realizing this was his only chance he used shunshin curving to the right five meters before the creature. As it lowered itself to a speed of a meter a second on the fifth second the trap was sprung. He jumped to his left pushing a falling downward diagonal slash.

Cutting the creatures head in half in a singular slice but using the tiny bit of chakra he had left causing Hayabusa to fall five meters to the ground and rolling until he stopped. Completely blacking out, he found himself waking up in what seemed to be the night time. His mission was complete when he stood all the way up and saw the corpse of the gigantic creature.
