"They hate you. They want to use their power to suppress you because they think their little kingdoms are worth more than you. They throw tantrums when asked why, spouting illogical arguments. Let them cry and stomp their feet. It will be mine that crushes their throat." The voice whispered in the corners of Suguru's brain.
"I get that getting banned again from the Hot Springs for another six months is bad, and don't get me wrong, just because the hostess had knockers that could crush coconuts, I am still angry but it's not THAT bad. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Plus, I am sure this place has one too."
Suguru didn't know how remembered the way to this place, but he knew he was sent here for some diplomatic talk. Safe to say things didn't really go that well. He wasn't sure he even remembered the name of it.
"YOU FOOL. THEY CONSPIRE. THAT PATHETIC VILLAGE GETS STRONGER EACH DAY AND YOU WASTE TIME WITH TRIVIALITIES LIKE THESE."
Lately, the voice had been getting stronger. Each word was no longer a whispered hush, but a fiery statement, especially when they disagreed.
Suguru stopped mid stride.
"Wow, wow, wow. I am not gonna stand here and listen to you badmouth the greatest village the world has ever known."
"YOU THINK YOUR PRECIOUS VILLAGE WOULD CARE IF YOU BLED OUT UNDER THAT CART? I WAS THE ONE WHO SAVED YOU. I ALWAYS AM. I AM THE ONE WHO GIVES YOU VALUE TO THE WRECKAGE YOU CALL LIFE."
Suguru stood silent. His hands were getting warm. Very warm. He could feel the chakra under his skin roil and boil. His nails jutted out his from fingers, clawing out.
He needed to wash his face. Calm his nerves. Be alone. Till it went away.
"YOU THINK YOU CAN TURN AND RUN EVERY TIME?"
"It worked when that Kunoichi nearly paralyzed me, It will work now. And you don't have the arms she had."
Suguru pushed through the crowd, each step more unsteady than the last.
