Keisuke's Scroll; The Copy Cat Jr

Scroll 3; Feeling Change

I was sleeping peacefully until I fell out of bed "oww" I groaned sitting up after I got up I looked at the time "oh crap it's almost seven I'm going to be late for class" I mumbled I then quickly got dressed and headed down stairs only to see dad crying on the couch

"Dad are you alright what's wrong?" I asked "I'm not fine son" Dad said looking up at me "What is it?" I asked starting to tear up "Your mom just came back from a mission and is in the hospital right now" Dad said

My eyes went shocked "Moms in the hospital is she okay!?" I asked shocked and sad "I don't know" Dad said 'mom.... ' I thought crying then I ran towards the door and quickly putted on my ninja shoes "huh? Where are you going?" I asked still crying

"I'm going to check on mom!" I said crying "but they're not letting in visitors" Dad said standing up "Well they're going to let me in even if they like it or not!" I said crying more than ran towards the hospital barging in

"I'm here to visit my mom" I said trying to stop crying "what's her name?" The nurse asked "Reika Hatake" I said sniffing "sorry but no visitors aloud" The nurse said "but I have too see her right now" I cried out then felt a hand on my shoulder

"Keisuke calm down its a hospital you need to be quiet" Dad said "But what about--"I'm sure she'll be fine Keisuke stop crying" Kakashi said then a medical ninja walked towards us "huh?" We both said in sync looking at her

"Your here to see Reika Hatake" The medical ninja asked "Yes" Kakashi said "follow me" The medical ninja said walking away then dad picked me up and followed her

We then got to the room and dad put me down and we went in to see hopefully mom sleeping but I ran in their "mom... What happen to you?" I asked tearing up again "K-keisuke...." Mom tried to say "mom?" I questioned crying

"I-i don't have.... Much time left" Mom said coughing "Don't say that" I cried "sorry but... I don't want the last thing I say... To be a lie" Mom said then she started talking to dad "Don't worry I'll take good care of him" Dad said wanting to tear up

"Keisuke" Mom said putting her hand on my cheek which made me look up "Always remember no matter what I'll still love you" Mom said crying which made me start to cry "I will and I always love you mom" I said hugging her crying then it went quiet

I looked up to see moms eyes closed and wasn't breathing "mom" I said "Mom!" I shouted shaking her "Keisuke" Dad said worried and I started crying again and dad hugged me I hugged him back tightly crying in his chest

"Keisuke" Dad mumbled hugging me and I ended up falling asleep

[One Year Later]

After my mom died I've changed I just didn't care anymore my alarm clock started ringing but I just sat there and ignored it now instead of falling peacefully asleep I would cry myself to sleep every night I never left my room since that day *knock* *knock*

"Keisuke...." Dad miles at the door "I'm not leaving my room!" I cried out then it went back to silence "Why...." I mumbled holding my legs to my face

"Keisuke your going to have to come out of there at some point" Dad said opening the door "Why should I" I mumbled then dad walked in and sat on my bed "What do you want" I sobbed into my knees

"I know it's hard but it's been a whole year you should be over it by now" Dad said "well I'm not" I said "Listen your mother died protecting her comrades so she didn't die for nothing" Dad started "huh?" I questioned looking up

"Look in the ninja world those who break the rules are scum..  that's true but those who abandoned their friends are worst than scum and your mother is no scum" Dad said 

"Hmph" I said smirking the jumped out of bed "huh?" Dad said looking up "Dad your such a softy" I said turning smiling "hmph whatever" Dad said standing up smiling at me

"No matter what happens to me I'll still be Hokage and one day even surpass you" I said putting my fist our "Of course you will you are my son after all" Dad said fist pumping with me and I smiled chuckling
