Reflections of the present (Open)

Snow’s life had become very “eventful” in the recent past. No matter how much he did wish that he could go back to when he was always the sunniest ninja in the village, trying to befriend everyone who passed by him, that ninja just wasn’t Snow anymore. The images of his mother’s brutal murder were etched into his mind and were showing no signs of slowing or going away. No matter how hard he had been trying to meditate, which always seemed to work for him in the past, the images would always be plastered onto the front of his brain, always thinking about what he had seen. He wasn’t sure what he was going to do with the images, he couldn’t keep on like this, just waiting for the next freak out he would have. 

Every single morning having to lie to his father saying that he was fine. Especially with his health beginning to decline. He had no where to go and no one to truly talk about his problems. He had certain ideas as to what he was going to do about it all. Could he just burn Kiri? Erase it from the face of the Earth, killing every single civilian within the walls? Eliminate everyone that had something to do with that invasion and their descendants. He wasn’t entirely sure how he was going to do that, but he did know that that was his goal from then on. He wanted to watch every single member of that village burn to death, one by one falling to the floor, to never get back up again. 

Snow sat at the ramen counter, staring at the bottom of his fourth bowl of ramen. He had stopped eating hours ago, at this point he was just repeating the image of Kiri burning to the ground. He wondered what he was going to do that day, he had been training non stop lately. But if he was going to try and take on an entire village, he was going to need to be the strongest member of the entire village and that was without a doubt. 

The only place he knew that he would be able to gain that type of strength is by bypassing those that were already there, those who were the higher ups of the village, those that ran the place, not just lived in it like Snow did. He was going to go to the Kage office and see if he would be allowed to have an attendance with both the Kage and the deputy Kage, or either would be fine. He wanted to ask them if they would be able to help Snow grow to the level of strength that he would be able to take on an entire village. But for now, he stared at the bottom of the bowl of ramen, and the bottom of a bottle of Sake. After drowning his sorrows for a few hours, it was coming close to closing time and the chef placed his hand on Snow's shoulder, saying that it was time for him to head on home.
