Horrible… the dreams that haunt me it’s terrible… I can’t sleep... its painful. The first dream was about the first death I experienced. When great grandfather died. He looked so odd lying in that coffin. I Remember I asked mother ‘why isn’t he awake yet? ’ And she told me he wasn’t going to wake up… never. I didn’t understand this. We all slept at night and we all woke up, and he didn’t. It just didn’t make sense. The second was a time we were at the bridge, me Itachi and a friend of his...I cant remember his name. Suddenly his friend crawled on the railing and jumped. I still remember the sickening thud as his skull met a boulder. Blood gushed at first then stopped within seconds. I tugged gently at Itachi’s shirt. ‘Big brother what’s wrong?’ he usually jumped into action or spoke in these terrible times. Instead like me he just watched the blood wash away in the river.
He took my small hand and we headed home. He locked himself in his room… this was his turning point. I know that once when we were visiting graves we stumbled upon his friend’s grave. Itachi took a kunai cut across his wrist then let the blood seep into the grave. I watched in the usual silence. We left soon after that we came home and mother was on the floor crying. I’d never seen mother cry. Itachi ushered me into my room and I did as he said shutting the door. He calmed her down after a bit. Turns out father had a heart attack and had died shortly after we left for the graves. It’s not true he killed both our parents only our mother and the rest of the clan. The worst dream of all... the one I wake up screaming or crying from is the killing. I wake up as usual going out of my room to sit at the table. I step in something wet. At first I think oh it’s water. The sink overflowed or something. It’s cold, and sticky. I look down. Its blood. ‘Itachi? Are you okay?’ I keep walking I come into the living room. Two bodies lay on mom’s favorite rug. One is mom. The other is an uncle of mine who had come to visit. ‘Mom? Mommy?’ I shake her shoulder trying to wake her up. Nothing works. Ok I have to think straight. I know where the school is. Teachers can help right? I run out of the house towards the school. Past Itachi. He’s holding a bloody kunai. I fell. A hand pulled me up out of the dirt. ‘Don’t you hate me little brother? Don’t you wish to kill me like I killed our family?’ I remember swearing at him. He said one last thing before he let me go. ‘Find me when you can kill me’ I ran all the way to the school. As soon as I tried to explain I burst out crying. A silver haired man {Kakashi I’m guessing} handed me to Kurenai who held me for a little bit and in between sobs I got out something along the lines of ‘my whole brother killed my clan!’ but they got the message. Several Jounin were released to my home and my clan’s area. I remember sitting with Kurenai holding me on her lap. When the Jounin returned a few had brought things important to me. A photograph, my teddy bear, and my blanket and pillow. I hear somebody say; this doesn’t look good;
About then I wake up. Usually crying. I wish I didn’t dream.
