Wait... Did My Parents Die Again?!

"This nine-tailed demon fox..."

'Its name is Kurama!'

I felt a surge of memories suddenly enter my head.

"Ugh, my head!"

Feeling the surge of memories flowing into my head, I couldn't help but hold my head in pain. I waited for the pain to pass.

As I was waiting for the pain to pass, I recalled one of my distant memories from before my reincarnation.

My best friend...

---

That day, a classmate approached me from behind as I was walking home and hit my shoulder, "Hey, Rin."

Her shoulder slap made me start, I didn't notice her come behind me. I turned around to get a better look.

There stood, a beautiful girl that gave off the impression of being a prim and proper lady. Her face was small, with a small button nose and small red lips. Her cascading silky black hair was tucked behind her ear and ran to her waist, her large black eyes hidden behind her round glasses. Her arms were crossed, and she seemed to be staring as I looked at her.

"You done staring?"

Her poker face was too much for me.

I couldn't help but dodge reality by thinking to myself, 'Her glasses look like they are from Harry Potter...'

...This was most certainly my best friend, Asuya.

I awkwardly laughed and smiled, "Ahaha. Ahem. Asuya?"

She uncrossed her arms and rolled her eyes as she smiled, "It's been forever since we last hung out, let's go to my house and watch some anime. You know, take a break from all these tests we've taken recently?"

To be honest, I never was interested in anime like she was. I just hang out since I never had anything better to do, as well as her not being able to share this hobby with normal classmates.

"Nah, I need to focus on studying this time..."

She rolled her eyes, "You think I don't know that your grades are in the dumps? Come on, there is a straight 'A' student right here. Why not take advantage of it and just watch some anime so you can study together with me afterward. You can even stay over at my house over the weekend if you really need it."

With this, I was sentenced to my fate. A sleepover at my best friends house, with anime and studying on the weekend.

...Not that I disliked it.

I slowly came back to reality...

I was no longer in my old world.

The realization hit me, 'This world... Is Naruto?'

'I... Reincarnated into the world of an anime? But that is impossible... Unless it was a real world?'

I dismissed these ridiculous thoughts. No matter what the truth really is, it doesn't matter.

This is now my reality, it's no longer just an anime I watched with Asuya.

I woke up from my stupor and got up, clearing the pieces of ashes and remaining bits of wood off of my body at the same time. What laid before me is the ruins of a house.

I felt confused and perplexed, 'What happened?'

Thinking on that note, I slowly recalled this life's memories.

I was born to a very beautiful woman, and my father was very handsome. He even had a katana hanging near his side. I couldn't help but think that my father of this life was very cool.

It seems that after I was born I lived in this house for two years. Although my memory from that time is rather shaky, I still know that it was very peaceful during that time, nothing of importance had happened... Not that I know of at least.

However, it seems that for some reason, we had a house fire.

I awoke in the middle of it. I tried exiting my room, but before I could even take a step out into the living room, a flaming beam fell down right in front of me. I fell on my butt and crawled to hide under my bed, passing out as the fire was spreading.

'That's right... My house burned down.'

A sudden realization hit me. The house was on fire, so what happened to my parents?!

My poker face fell, and I couldn't help but panic, 'Wait... Did my parents die again?!'
