Mana's Story: Chapter Ten
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Recap: I had my first training session with Hidan. It was rough, but an intense battle. After I left the training grounds and grabbed a bite to eat, I spoke with Kisame who informed me that Leader-dono was waiting for me. I headed in search for his office straight away...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I ran down several hallways before arriving in front of Pein's office. Taking a dee
Brilliantly unaware
Of what's going on around you
Off in your own little world,
Peacefully content with your thoughts.
You have absolutely no idea
Of how much I care about you
The young boy fell to the ground, landing with a loud thud. A sickening crunch echoed through the clearing, and the child screamed in pain, holding his arm and staring at the bones jabbing out from the limb. Whimpering, he tried to wipe the blood off of his hands as a tall, thin shadow lingered over him, a sharp object protruding from its grasp.
The long, slender arms of the shadow held the young male down as he struggled to get away from its curved figure. A delicate, yet firm hand wrapped around the trembling child's throat, and a cold metal blade was pressed against his bare neck.
Tears spilling down his cheeks, the kid squeezed his e
Having the absolute worst day ever
Constant chaos floating around me
News of war and anarchy
Close ones dying
Freak accidents, bad weather
Didn't finish my homework,
Had a pop quiz in Spanish today
My headphones only work out of one ear now
Dammit, my pen ran out of ink
I grasp my head, pulling out a few stray hairs in frustration
I'm so done with this day.
Sitting down to vent my thoughts,
I scribble this poem down on paper quickly.
I feel a deep rush of relief flowing through me.
Ahh, I feel calmer now.
Thank goodness for that, I don't know what I would have done
Had I stayed angry...
...Why writing? Just a simple question.
Well, writing....It's...Gosh, I don't know how to put it into words...
Here, lemme change the question a little. 'Why do you want to be a writer?'
...Hmmm, that makes a little more sense in different words. There's several reasons I could say, but only one is right: I NEED TO. I need to write, there is something deep inside me that demands and urges and pulls at me that I absolutely must let people know what I'm capable of, to show what I think for once.
Sure, that's a good answer. But.. What about drawing, or singing, or something? There's more than one way to express yourself, right?
Yes, that i
A smirk plays across my lips
Eyes narrowed, almost squinting in silent laughter
Pinkened cheeks and a scrunched up nose
I run my fingers through my silky strands of hair
Propping my arm securely,
I lean against the wall and chuckle.
Your eyes widen as your shocked expression fills your face,
Realizing you made an accidental joke
Tilting my head back in laughter
I love how your innocence can be an act of hilarity with ease.
Frowning, you slump your shoulders as I tease and mock you in a friendly way.
A quick pat on the shoulder and a hug, and I'm off
To go converse with our other close friends
You make my day so happy and bright
I love how you stand there and smile at me,
Ushering me into a warm and understanding hug.
I am so extremely grateful to have someone around like you
No person or thing could ever destroy our friendship
No matter what
We will always be there for each other.
