I relentlessly hunted for Kyuubi. D. Kyuubi had instilled a hate for his lighter half in me. I wanted him dead as much as D. Kyuu....I ravened angrily hissing when I came to a dead end and constantly eating the humans that D. Kyuubi had given to me to help find Kyuubi.
There became a saying among those men. "Run with Dark and you'll be left in the Dark." which untimently meant that I would eat someone.
“Lord……Kyuubi isn’t here……” a man said quietly.
I turned and stared at him with pure red eyes. He looked ready to shirk and grovel at my feet like a dog. I was ready to treat him as such and kick him when the feeling returned. The feeling of a missing piece a void within had once again returned. I twitched, hissed something to the effect of then get on with it, and walked away dazed again.
“Dam,” I swore, “What issss thisss?”
I looked out into the vastness of the land feeling the vibrancy of chakra and life running through it. I had not been able to feel it before I had killed Hachimata. It swirled about almost carried by the wind. I hissed a bit for no reason other than to add to the feeling.
“If I am sssso whole….what am I lacking…..” I asked again.
Suddenly the breeze carried with it a smell. It was a smell I had not come accords in so long. My heart nearly exploded as I ran off through the vastness towards the smell towards the chakra towards Kyuubi….
I ran for a long time until I knew exactly where he was. His chakra radiated out of him like a dying person. Once I found him I stopped and breathed. Kyuubi sat very still his back propped against a fallen tree his head down.
“Hachi,” Kyuubi said dryly.
I stared at Kyuubi taking in his features. He had become skinner and his hair was a mess on his head.
“I’m not Hachimata,” I finally answered.
“No…..you killed Hachi……” Kyuubi said as if it hurt him to even say it.
“Yessss I killed him, and now I’ve found you……”
“What are you going to do…..Dark……” Kyuubi asked not moving his head from the rest of his knees.
“I found you and now I’m going to take you to D. Kyuubi and have him execute you,” I smirked.
“Why…..” Kyuubi asked.
I was caught of guard and didn’t know how to answer. I stepped back a pace trying to think of what to say.
“Becaussse,” I answered, “D. Kyuubi demandsss it.”
“No…..why did you kill Hachi……” he asked.
The feeling screamed it me now. The lacking…..the missing thing….the vacentness was screaming out now asking why.
“Becaussse I wanted to be the one to live,” I answered.
“You both could have lived,” Kyuubi retorted not changing his dry voice, “Why did you kill Hachi….”
“I wanted to,” I answered.
“To kill yourself……” Kyuubi asked.
“I wanted to be the only one living!” I yelled.
“That isn’t good enough….why did you kill Hachimata…..”
“Enough!” I yelled, “Come now or I’ll kill you here and now!”
“Do you think I fear death?” Kyuubi asked.
And for the first time, Kyuubi picked his head up and his eyes looked straight at me.
“Kyuubi,” I said unsure of what else to say.
Kyuubi stared at me with full black eyes.
Kyuubi continue?
