9 A Battle in a Nightmare 9

[A WEEK LATER. AGAIN.]

"How did you even threw Kunai there? How is that even possible?"

"Huh?... It's nothing special really. It's just that you're bad at this."

"P2 WINS" A sound came from the TV.

"How is it that no matter how much I play this game I still suck at it?"

"You mean just randomly smashing XYZA? You know that by just playing it you won't become better at it."

"Yeah right. If you didn't use that exploit I would've won."

"Exploits are still part of the game so I technically didn't break any rules. So go and clean the dishes already."

"Ugh... man at least you could've admitted that you're going to use the exploits."

*Rrriinnnngg (idk how to make doorbell sounds)

The doorbell rang and then a man with a woman came in afterwards.

"...Kushina how many time are you going to barge into someone's home?"

"Sorry I just couldn't wait any longer. Anyways Emiko we're here!" said Kushina.

"Oh come in I guess then? Well a few minutes and Sakumo also will join us. So how's it going? Did something happen or was it as per usual?" Emiko questioned.

"Nothing that different happened this week. The only thing that changed was that we started playing games together that's all. Where's Kakashi? I noticed that he's not here right now. Is he alright?" answered Kushina.

"I think he's fine. He only oversleeps as per usual right now."

"So he usually sleeps until 11:00?"

"Usually yes. When I asked him about it he said that he's enjoying his dream or he's too lazy to get ready."

"So that's what it is. I'm glad it's nothing serious at least. So how did your week go?"

They started talking and after a couple of minutes Minato and Sakumo join the discussion.

(I'm just too lazy to write most of the conversation so use your imagination if you want I guess?)

"It's already 11:59 and he didn't woke up. I guess it's time to manually get him out of the bet." said Emiko and went to wake up Kakashi until she came back running and nervously shouting. "Sakumo! There's something wrong with Kakashi! He's sweats a lot and looks like he's in pain!"

Sakumo spat out all of the soda in his mouth and ran towards Kakashis room. After that Minato and Kushina followed him immediately afterwards.

They barged in the room and saw what terrified them most right now. They saw Kakashi sweating a lot, his expression as if he's in pain and unstable breathing.

"What should we do? It's not like he's gonna die but still its taking a toll on him." said Emiko nervously.

"The temperature seems normal so I guess whatever he's experiencing in his dream or mindscape for now." carefully checking Kakashi Sakumo said.

"I guess I could try to get into his mindscape together with Kushina sense we are still not efficient enough to get you two also if Emiko hasn't been able to wake up Kakashi up until now."

.

"So I guess that means we have to do that. Alright we need a lot of concentration so you guys need to be quite or to be outside the room." after Kushina said that she grabbed Minatos hand and started the procedure.

'ugh... why does my head feel so heavy?'

I thought until I realized that I wasn't in my room anymore.

'Where am I and why does it feel like I've been here before?' Then I got up and saw I wasn't in my body anymore but still the same one that I was familiar with for 16 yrs.

'Huh? Why am I back to my old body? Haven't I died there before?' while I was thinking what was happening I dressed up and went near the door when I heard nostalgic voices that I loved.

"So it's been six yrs since then huh."

"Yeah. At that time we really had to hide our true feelings about him but who would've thought that him dying could've benefited us so much. If I would've known that I would've done that a lot sooner than that natural cause."

"And don't forget he believed that we really loved him. HAH!"

Hearing those word my heart has gone into a mess. For a moment I felt a pain the chest, sad and also felt like I was betrayed by my former family until I unconsciously listened their further conversation.

The conversation felt forced and dry as if it wasn't them talking but more like text-to-speech machines talking together to each other and always repeated mostly the same things over and over again.

Then suddenly I started hearing different voices telling me that I'm worthless, useless and that I only bring suffering to others over and over again. If I didn't known any better I would say that I'm in a sort of Genjutsu I guess even if I still haven't experienced it yet.

After that I changed back and heard the same thing but this time was with My New family and friends saying the same thing but then at the end stood some black guy appeared out of nowhere looking completely black as if he was the shadow.

Then he started walking to me with his black with red irises eyes like Madara in war arc but instead of sharingan was just red gloving eyes.

"Who are you and what is this? Did you do all of this and why?"

But the figure laughed and then finally stepped out of what seemed like a shadow.

"Who am I? I'm you. Well I'm more like your dark side and what this is is your mindscape. And yourself did all of this." he then smile with the most evilest smile that I seen so far.

"Bullsh*t there's no way that you're me even if you look like alike me."

"Oh then what's the difference between us huh?"

"First of all I don't sound like that at all. Second the eyes are definitely not like mine in the slightest. Thirdly I got a family that's backing me up."

"Are you sure about that? From what I here is only them using you." then he starts showing the worst moments of me and my family and starts smiling more in the same expression.

I start to doubt a little he notices and continues.

"Are you really sure that they won't abandon you? Or if they really care about you?"

"...I-I..i.." I started stuttering.

"Come and join me. Together we'll show them that we're not pushovers and we'll together get out revenge."

.

.

.

.

.

.

"...no."

"What?"

"No."

"What do you mean by No? Don't you want revenge for all of those times?"

"No, why would I? It's not like they did what they thought was worse for me. They're kind people unlike these imitations."

"So you refuse huh. Ok then I'm gonna take your body by force then." after he said that he immediately ran towards me with killing intent.

He caught me by surprise and I merely manage to dodge it and was left to so many openings. Then he turned around and started dashing towards me at the much higher speeds than before. I only by chance am surviving this.

There are many bruises and cuts on me now but I don't have the time to at least cover them. As I was dodging suddenly I was knocked of my balance and landed on the floor.

"This is the end but at least you gave me a satisfying fight." Then try he tried to stab what seemed a knife into my scull but then I felt a weird feeling.

It was like my eyes were itching but multiply the feeling like about a hundred. Then afterwards I was able to barely escape it leaving only a wound where the scar was in the canon Kakashi in Naruto.

I managed to push him to the side a little letting me barely any time to stand up so I tried to tackle him and then stand up. It worked but that only made him angrier than before. It seemed like he became even powerful from that. It feels like the more angrier he becomes the stronger he is.

I barely hold my ground and I see him dashing towards me. Trying to dodge that attack I fell off balance and fell. He still was coming to kill me until...

"Adamantine Sealing Chains."

"Flying Thunder God level 2."

"ugh... How are you two even here I thought that you couldn't couldn't enter people's subconscious!" He shouted at them angrily.

"That's irrelevant right now. We're going to finish you for good this time Drax."

"You think that you can stop me? Hah I'm just going to enter someone else's subconscious and then you all be dead." He started removing one of the chains and barely dodging Minatos attacks until I used one and only Jutsu.

'Earth style: Headhunter Jutsu.'

He got trapped in the ground and sealed in the scroll that Kushina brought. To be honest I thought the fight was going to be more 'interesting' but I guess being safe is more important right now.

"Kakashi can we talk here only three of us?" asked Minato.

"Sure I see why not." I answered.

"Why do you have two sets of memories instead of one and I'm not talking about Drax but you know if we known that we would have been a lot sooner."

"W-Well you see..." I say akwardly not knowing how to answer.

[AUTHORS NOTE]

Well I tried to do this dramatically and realistically but idk how good it is. But it's still better than nothing.

I tried to keep the battle as realistic as I can while not making as boring as I can.

How do you guys think? Did I do a good job on this or was it lackluster?
