Right now I was on a mission with Sora, Kurenai and Asuma, with me in charge. We had to deliver some kind of treaty to the Kazekage. Everything went pretty smoothly, but on the way back, we were attacked by Suno-nin in the desert.

I ordered them to stay in formation and take the ones on the left while I go on the right. Asuma looked like he was about to complain.

"That's an ORDER! Are you planning on disobeying your captain!"

They shut up and went ahead.

After I don't know how long, I felt someone's hand on me. I attacked with chidori, thinking it was an enemy but it was only Sora and he had evade my attack. I was shocked. I could have killed him. I was about to break my promise,... Again. I was about to kill my own comerade. And this time by my own hands.

Sora POV

I let Asuma and Kurenai do most of the work while I killed the other strayed ninjas. I chose to do this mission personally instead of sending Miku since I wanted to check Kakashi's behavior first hand.

After 30 minutes we were done on our side. We looked on Kakashi's and he was sitting and punching a ninja's face to the point of unrecognizable.

I heard Kakashi's knuckles broke so I went to stop him but he attacked me. It's a good thing I was quicker than him or he would have really chidoried a friend.

I looked at him and he was evidently shocked and afraid. I gave him my hand to stand up and we returned to the village with the 2 following behind us silently. It seems they have never seen Kakashi lose his cool, this much before.

I told them to go ahead and report to the Hokage first. While I took Kakashi's hand and shunshined us to his house. I healed his hand but he really looked out of it. 

"Sorry. I am really sorry Sora. I didn't think it was you. If you hadn't moved....God I would have killed you. Really, sorry Sora. It seems I really am cursed. I'm sure that if you continue to stay with me, you will die as well. Just like the others. That's why... Please I'm asking you-", I quickly stopped him.

"Really Kakashi I didn't know you were such a cry baby. You wouldn't have killed me. You may be older but I'm stronger than you. Don't forget who always beats your ass while sparring. I can take care and protect myself so DON'T YOU DARE PUSH ME AWAY. Or else I'll stick your picture without a mask all around the village. And your mysterious aloof ninja persona will crumble."

He glared at me and mumbled something about stupid camera. But you could see his mood improved.

"Also, it was partially my fault if you attacked. I had completely hidden my presence and didn't even call you. So really, if there's a need to blame someone it's me.

Well I'm going to report to the Hokage. You should take a bath first and then go report. I'll tell him you'll be late."

Hokage's office - Minato POV

"... Kakashi beat him up until he became unrecognizable.", Sora was giving her report on the mission.

"I heard he also attacked you."

"Yes but that was mostly my fault. If I didn't-"

"This isn't the issue Sora, what if he hadn't attacked you but rather Asuma or Kurenai. You're strong. Maybe even stronger than me. But had it been them they would have died. Kakashi is far too fill with anger. At the rate he's going he'll just destroy himself and everyone around him. That's why I'm going to observe him for one last month. If he continues with the reckless behavior, I'll put him in Anbu and keeping him as my guard or send him on mission where he can release his rage. At least I'll be able to keep a closer eye on him."
