PAST TIMES

"Well, you being there helps the school to get more job from the government which increases the school revenue. But, the student gets an increase of salary and maybe a promotion, but it's based on your skills"

"You mean the more exchange program I participate in the more I can get promoted?" I asked.

"Yes, and don't forget the salary. If you get promoted, you can get access to authorize information and can change your teammate"

"What do you mean by authorize information?"

"Information no one can access" she answered,

"That mean I can find my sister?" I said to myself happily

"Did you say something, Kakashi"

"No, nothing. I know what to do" I said seriously.

I remembered the American FBI agent that came yesterday, they were supposed to come back today.

"Mira, I'm going back to your mom's office" I informed her, she asked me why.

"I got someone to meet, and I'm going to inform her that I will be in the next exchange program"

By the time I got to Natski's office, the FBI agent were already there.

"Look who's here" Natski called out to me. "We were just talking about you"

"Okay, I'm here now" I replied

"Sorry for what happened last time" the female agent said, she was sitting on a chair opposite Natski. "Let me introduce myself. I'm Elizabeth Van Rose, but you can also call me by my undercover name chain"

"I'm Kakashi Yami" I hesitated

"Why don't you come have a sit, Kakashi" Chain invited me to another chair opposite her and I sat. "So please, tell me, no tell us, what happened at the lab, tell us what happened though out your life, how did you come here?" Chain asked, I looked at Natski, but she didn't look concerned.

"Well, it started five years ago when I was still ten years old"

* * *

I was ten years old and my sister, Tokah was eight. We live together with our mom in a forest now too far from the city. We always told our mother to take us to the city but every time she refuse us, saying that the outside world was too dangerous for us, that why we lived our entire in a barrier. To me, I knew she was lying, it's either that we were lock up here because of something she did, or she was running away from something, but either way I didn't mind, it didn't matter as long as I was with my family, nothing else matters and as the only boy in my family, I took it as a duty to protect them. Once in a while, my mom goes outside the barrier to do her business, or according to what she said and a man who introduced himself as our uncle came to teach us about our ability, that is it to control electricity. He told us not to tell our mom because it was cause of it that why we lived here, but he never said what really happened. And mom never mentioned him to us, maybe because of what he said. And each day we learn we became better at it even though Tokah was stronger than I. My mom told us to go near the barrier, especially at night because they were demons. One day, my mom left to the city and Tokah said we should go to the end of the barrier.

"Big brother" Tokah called out to me.

"Hmm mm?" I answered.

"Since mom will not be back till tomorrow morning, let's go to the barrier"

"No!!!!" I yelled, her expression change, it was like she was about to cry. "Umm....ummm, I mean, mom said we shouldn't, especially at night, and look it's already evening"

"Don't worry, with you by my side and my lightening style, we'll be fine"

"I don't feel good about this" I said as we both walk to the barrier. "According to what I've learned, I knew the barrier covers a 5km radius. How can we walk to the end before nightfall?"

"Good thing that you ask, I've been working on my new lightening style technique, lightening flash!"

"Lightning flash???" I asked, I know she has been working on a new technique, but I didn't expect her to perfect it so soon. "You already perfected it?, And still stuck trying to control my own chakra"

"I'll go on ahead, you try to keep up" she activated her technique and left without me. Lightning flash, the technique utilizes your chakra to make your body weight reduce and increases your speed. It also has one disadvantage, that is if a body surpasses the limit, the body break. I was told not to use it since my chakra was unstable.

Tokah came back hours later, she seemed pale like something bad happened to her.

"Tokah, what happened?" I called on to her, but she didn't respond. "Tokah!!!, You scared me. I thought we agreed that you are coming back before nightfall"

She didn't answer me she kept walking straight to our house, I ran and held her hand, she held my hand and threw me against a tree, I fell on the ground coughing blood, Tokah looked at me, and suddenly she returned to her normal self and ran to help me. We got home and I asked her about what happened.

"Big brother, I made a friend outside the barrier" she happily informed me.

"Outside the barrier!!!!!, Who is this friend of yours?"

"It was a young lady, she comes into the forest with her father to cut and takes it to the city" Tokah came closer to me. "Guess what brother?"

"What?" I asked confused

"She took me into town and showed me some places. The town is really amazing"

"You know, we're not allowed to go outside. How did you go outside in the first place?"

"Simple!!" She shouted proudly. "I tried to touch the barrier, but my hand just went through it as if there was nothing there"
