Hatake Kakashi - 2
Background History: One Kakashi Hatake was born to a first generation Japanese immigrant family, who had moved to San Francisco, California, for a new life. Kakashi would later suspect Sakumo had actually dragged them out of Japan to escape illegal dealings or because he’d gotten his mother pregnant before they were married without the in-laws approval… Or something else. Kakashi doesn’t really know, but he’s creative like that.

His childhood would have been typical with loving parents if his mother hadn’t died when he was three due to an untreatable disease. Or if his father hadn’t committed suicide when he was six years old after he fell into unavoidable debt. Besides that, things were fine. At least, that’s what Kakashi told himself. He’d dealt only as children did when his mother died, by clinging to his father. Already having a tendency to observe rather than play with the children of Japan Town, he didn’t turn to any playmates for comfort. For a time his father and he became inseparable except for school and work. With his father’s attentions and the boy’s quick mind, he skipped first grade and was finally making a few friends when the worst struck. Sakumo couldn’t pay back his wife’s medical bills despite working overtime. Having gotten loans and spent credit he didn’t have, Sakumo essentially lost everything trying to find a cure for his wife.

Being a traditionalist, Sakumo took the honorable way out to a Japanese man. But they had no relations in America, where Kakashi was born a citizen, and so he was placed into the foster system, grief-stricken and resentful. At first believing that his father was simply a coward and weakling, the boy grew up tough, mean, and following the letter of the law so that it would never catch him like it did his father. He was always an intelligent child and excelled in academics besides not having any compassion for others, and moved around only a few times as a child of the system until an understanding, hard-working Chinese family took him in. Graduating at seventeen from the public school system, Kakashi had avoided most people unless they entered a give and take relationship in which he found some benefit.

He would have had little ambition or passion for continued learning if he hadn’t discovered the taboo side of teenage life. Kakashi was never against trying something new at least once, so he accepted any non-addictive—free—substance that was available to him and even became involved in the little porn trading club a group of boys had developed. Hormonal as any teen, he knew the communal ideas of beauty and ‘normal’ but had his own unique taste. Anything pretty enough caught his attention for a time, though a relationship was too bothersome. Because of this, pornography was a welcome distraction, if amusement at times from the ridiculous lines, noises, and faces.

And then he found Jiraiya. In his senior year he became entranced by the series of pornography that was directed by this man. Everything from the camera angles to the plot line left him breathless, and a little dazed like a fan boy. He’d found his passion.
