Hatred Turned Love

Chapter 18: Scary Situations

Welcome again guys! Another chapter updated and ready to be read! Excited? Goosebumps and shivers all check? Don't worry it won't be scary this time. Sorry I haven't updated in a long time, either very sick or had a lot of homework -coughs- er… So I wrote a little longer on this chappie! Well… time to bust your eyes with this chapter… So… why did Kakashi get ballistic with his reflection?

KAKASHI'S POV:

What… happened to me?

“No Naruto-kun,” sighed Akemi. “Kakashi isn't a `no'.”

“Then…?”

My reflection can't be true… maybe it's because my eye was messed up.

I tried wiping my eye with my hand. But I couldn't move…

My hand… The only body part I can move is my head and neck.

I stared and stared.

What I have become… was a doll. No, I mean action figure.

My hand was gloved, I had no fingers whatsoever.

“This isn't happening!” I said hoarsely.

Akemi turned away from me.

She's still mad… I think. Meanwhile Lee was still trying to convince Sakura, who was totally rejecting him by the way, to be his love. Naruto was getting pissed, Tenten was ignoring the chaos, and Neji and Sasuke were both staring at each other for some competition.

“Kakashi is a doll!” said Gai, laughing and cracking up all the same. “I can't believe it, AHAHAHAH, whoo… whoo-hoo... can't breathe…”

“I'm an action figure,” I said calmly.

“Whatever you say dolly,” teased Gai, still laughing his ass off.

Hmm… my intention of killing Gai was somehow increasing…

I was picked up by Sakura, who ran away from Lee.

“Wow Kakashi-sensei… you're very… um… tiny…” she said, smiling nervously. “AND YOU'RE SO CUTE!”

She hugged me tight, making me suffocate.

“Sa-ku-ra-!” I said trying to breathe. Wait… can I even breathe? Seeing how I'm not even living... I don't know that's even possible.

“Man… I never thought you would look this cool Kakashi-sensei!” giggled Sakura. “This is so cool!”

“Maybe I should be a doll,” said Lee. “Then maybe Sakura-chan will go for me…”

“NO!” said Gai angrily. “Just because Kakashi the Wuss is a doll, doesn't mean you have to be one! You'll be weaker and—.”

“Gai-sensei don't worry, I'll always stick by your side!” creid Lee. Both of them embraced and cried a bit.

“I wonder if I have any extra doll clothes,” said Sakura. “They might all be for girls, but I don't think that matters…”

Someone shoot me…

“Kakashi-sensei can be our mascot!” said Naruto happily, turning to my direction. “Maybe he'll scare some people… since he's a talking doll and all.”

“Action figure,” I corrected him.

Man… a talking doll forever… I mean action figure. I can't believe this! I can't even pick up my precious “Come Come Paradise” book.

I was ripped off by Sakura's hands from someone I never expected.

“C'mon guys… give him some air,” said Akemi. “You don't want a dead doll to be your sensei.”

Action figure guys… get it right… please…

I smiled at Akemi, but she didn't even give me a single glance.

Akemi… I'm sorry…

“Akemi-chan—.”

“Let's go guys…” said Akemi, not paying attention. “This house is creepy; let's try to find the exit.”

Wait, the exit?

“Er… isn't the door right across from us?” I asked.

“When you were knocked out,” explained Tenten, slightly yelling over Gai's laughter. “Akemi dragged you in and the next thing we know…”

I looked back.

There was no door… no windows.

Only candles lit the enormous mansion. We were… trapped.

“What the hell is going on?” I asked.

“We don't know…” said Sasuke, still staring darkly at Neji, who was staring right back; angrily.

I felt Akemi shiver. Oh yeah, I forgot how scared she is in the dark.

“Don't worry Akemi-chan I'll…”

“I'll protect you Akemi-chan!” shouted Gai.

Since when did he have the authority to call Akemi, Akemi-chan?

She's very sensitive about her name… ahahah…

Her temple tensed a bit. Uh-oh…

But then…

“Thanks Gai-sensei, I really appreciate it,” said Akemi happily.

Wow, that was a downer…

“Don't be so formal, call me Gai-chan!” said Gai happily.

Almost everyone laughed, kinda, they held their stifled laughter. Akemi was the only one who didn't laugh.

“Sure,” said Akemi.

DWAH??? But that's my nickname…

I guess she's still mad.

“We should split up,” said Gai. “Hmm maybe…”

She eyes Akemi and me evilly.

“Kakashi you are in the care of Sakura…” said Gai. “Sakura, Sasuke, and Naruto team up, and I'll go with my students with Akemi.”

Akemi didn't even complain.

Please don't let me go Akemi… I don't want to be suffocated again…

She handed me to Sakura without further delay, and then headed with Gai and his students toward the opposite door.

Is he trying to split us up?

“Akmei-chan, wait—!”

“I would rather get out of here with someone who I can trust, thanks,” muttered Akemi darkly.

I was stunned.

“But I…”

“Don't worry Kakashi,” said Gai. “Just get on with your business on finding the exit, this is also a competition, you and me, man to doll...”

I sighed. ACTION FIGURE! JEEBUS!

“Let's go Kakashi-sensei!” said Sakura, hugging me more.

We split up finally, and I saw Akemi's sad expression before she closed the door from the other room.

AKEMI'S POV:

Kakashi's a doll, I mean action figure, really hard to believe, but it happened. I have a feeling as well Kakashi didn't plan that ghost girl on me. I felt a little guilty.

If he didn't plan it…

Who did?

Don't tell me that girl was for real.

“Ahh, don't worry Akemi-chan, I'll help you through this haunted place,” said Gai happily.

“Thanks,” I muttered.

I hope the others are okay.

Kakashi… will you go back to your body?

What seemed to be miles away was a single lit candle from across the room. A single lit candle was eerie…

“I'm glad I'm with you guys,” I said. “Then Kakashi doesn't have to scare me anymore.”

“I don't think… he planned that ghost girl on you,” said Tenten.

Well… if you were at least scared half to death by someone you really trusted, then you wouldn't say the same thing.

So now everyone knows about that ghost girl. Come to think of it…

She was in the water, and Kakashi was right next to me.

…humph… probably was another shadow clone from him.

I was sad and mad… and I didn't have any “Glad” wear… that product is pretty good actually.

“Why do you say that?” I asked.

“Well… he was with us because he was trying to find you,” said Tenten. “Then we saw you at the door and…”

They were with him? Who the freak was that girl?

“Ahh… let's just drop it for a while okay?” I said smiling as sweetly as I could. Tenten and Lee exchanged nervous looks.

“Are you sure?”

“Why do you guys care if I'm mad at Kakashi anyway?” I asked them.

Suspicious people I tell you, I can sniff them out. They didn't say anything.

“Well?”

“Well… it's just that—.”

“Akemi-chan…”

“Yeah?”

I averted my eyes away from them, trying to glimpse the direction of what called my name.

But nothing was there.

“Akemi-san,” said Tenten. “What's wrong?”

“Did any of you guys called me?”

The group strangely looked at me.

“Er…”

“Uhh… hold up guys, I wanna check something out,” I said, running toward a door.

“Wait!” said Gai. “We have to stick together!”

But I was already gone. I kinda ignored him, ahahah…

After I closed the door after me, I ran toward a narrow hallway. It was freakin' black. Pitch black. Really dark. You get the picture.

There weren't any candles anywhere, or anything with any kind of light.

Wait… a light? I saw one… a small one.

“Akemi…” said Sai nervously. “Remember what happened in the scary movies…”

“Oh yeah…”

Will I see the ghost girl again?

Then I heard someone crying.

KAKASHI'S POV:

I wonder how Akemi is doing. I hope Gai doesn't scare her like I did or he's definitely not gonna come out of this house alive.

Sakura squeezed me like always… am I that adorable?

I looked like a plush toy… but I'm an action figure. Aren't I?

“So then we—.”

“Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura…” I sighed. “You guys know where you're going?”

“…”

“…maybe…?”

“Keep going straight,” I directed. “And—.”

A light… was barely ahead of us.

“There's a light!” Sakura said.

“WHERE?” said Naruto loudly.

“At twelve o' clock dumbass…” said Sasuke.

“The light is at the clock?” asked Naruto.

Sakura accidentally dropped me.

“Whoops Kakashi-sensei, I…”

She stopped.

“Kakashi-sensei?” she said.

Huh?

“Where are you Kakashi-sensei?” asked Sakura. She rummaged around the place, barely touching me.

“Sakura-chan I'm right here,” I said. “To your right!”

She didn't listen because she stood up.

“That's weird…” said Sakura. “I dropped him and I can't find him anywhere…”

Sasuke and Naruto came over.

“What do you mean?” asked Sasuke.

“See him anywhere?” asked Sakura.

They looked directly at me. Are you guys that blind?

“I don't see him,” said Naruto. “He probably was dropped somewhere else, let's go search.”

They started to go.

“Sasuke!” I yelled. “Naruto, Sakura!”

They just kept walking. My voice didn't sound small.

Then…why did they…?

I was left alone near the entrance. Sakura, Naruto, and Sasuke ditched me to find “me”. I sighed as I stared at the candle next to me. I remembered that I couldn't move.

How on earth did this happen?

The candle, the only light of the hallway, was waning. That's just fantastic…

I heard crying.

“Anyone there?” I asked. Maybe it was Sakura or someone…

A girl came. That girl… I saw in the water.

Except her dress wasn't torn and she wasn't wet. She looked happy and healthy. She smiled at me and picked me up.

“You're a cute dolly,” she said. “You're all mine now.”

I'm an action figure for gawd sakes…

“What did you do to me?” I demanded. “And get everyone out of this house.”

“No,” said the girl flatly. “Only if you become mines forever.”

“I can't promise that,” I said.

“Then you're friends will only have to die,” she said. Her tone was flat… no life in it whatsoever.

I heard footsteps.

“Please release them,” I said. “And then… I'll stay…”

“Forever?” asked the girl.

“…”

“Yes or no?”

I tried biting my lip, but couldn't. Darn what should I do? If my head wasn't stuffed with fluff, maybe I would've thought of another plan.

“Um… er…”

“Kakashi?”

Was that…?

The girl turned and she was staring at Akemi.

Akemi was near the front of the entrance. I felt the girl hold me tighter.

“He's mine,” said the girl. “You can't take him.”

I thought at least Akemi would reason with her… but…

“Look you little shit,” snapped Akemi. “Kakashi's MY doll, so keep your filthy hands away from him!”

… I guess not…

Action figure guys… gah, forget it.

“No!” said the girl. She tried running away…

“Akemi-chan!” I called desperately.

She literally tackled the girl to the ground.

“My doll!” cried Akemi, tugging on my leg.

Akemi, your voice sounds… squeakier?

“No he's mine!” said the girl, tugging back.

“Girls, I'll rip!” I said. The strain was getting to my thread.

They ignored me.

“MY DOLLY!” screamed Akemi.

“NO, MINE!” shrieked the girl.

I'm gonna rip into a thousand pieces for sure.

Akemi took out her kunai and threw it at her face. The girl disappeared.

“He's mine forever…” the girl hissed. “No matter what it takes…”

Akemi softly put me in her arms. I felt rare warmth from her entering into my frozen body.

“Whew, thanks Akemi-chan,” I said.

“No problem,” said Akemi.

I looked up at her, and I was shocked.

“Akemi-chan is that you?” I said.

“What?”

“You're a...”

“A what?” asked Akemi.

(A/N: It doesn't stop there people ^^)

AKEMI'S POV:

I was a what? And why did my voice sound squeakier?

I looked at my hands.

MY ITTY BITTY HANDS???

“HOLY—!” I screamed. “WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO ME???”

I looked around for a mirror. There was none. Dammit, but by the look of my hands I knew…

I was a small girl.

“You look even cuter,” said Kakashi happily.

“RAWR, I'M A MIDGET!” I roared.

What did I look like… eight years old or something? Oh my gawd, will I be stuck like this forever too?

“Let's go Whitey-chan,” I muttered. “Why can't keep—.”

“What did you say?”

I looked at him, startled. Did I piss him off?

“What happened?” I asked.

“No, er, what did you call me?” he said, smiling.

“I called you…”

I sighed as I retraced my memory.

“Okay, you got me,” I said. “I called you your nickname… happy?”

I would gladly love to kick his grin off his face.

“Cool…” he said. “Then—?”

“Can I burn you?” I asked, irritated.

“Ah?”

“Let's go,” I said, “And stay quiet, like a regular action figure should.”

He grinned again.

“Thanks Akemi-chan.”

“…”

After we got out of the hallway, the glimmer of candles was fading. That was definitely making me nervous.

Hmm…

I looked at Kakashi. His face… his mask…

“I wonder,” I said. “If—.”

“If?” asked Kakashi nervously.

“Hmm…”

I reached for his mask.

“What are you doing?!?” said Kakashi, in a panic.

“Checking something,” I said evilly. “You can't move anyway so…”

“This isn't fair!” said Kakashi in a panic. “I'll do anything, just don't—.”

“TOO LATE!” I screamed, in my crazy laughter.

I tried yanking the mask…

To be continued…

Okay, my angry mobs of angry friends are literally chasing me down because of this cliff-hanger. I think I'm still alive… Okay, so… SORRY FOR THE CLIFF-HANGER! Couldn't help it, heehee… I hope you enjoyed this fanfic, thanks readers and reviewers!
