The initial explanation of the unfortunate series of events that lead to his father's death were anything but clear. For one reason or another the people who informed the young boy of his father's demise were cryptic and obscure. Something about falling in the line of duty, but that just didn't make any sense. He hadn't been extremely familiar with his father's working schedule, but as far as he knew he was mostly assigned to the gates. What's worse is he wasn't even allowed to see him. They wouldn't say why no matter how much he screamed and begged. The real reason was because the body had been burned to an almost unrecognizable state. Perhaps it was for the best that they wouldn't let him, something like that would probably be pretty traumatic.
Having nobody in this world you can trust or depend on was overwhelming for Shishiwakamaru. His mother was gone, his father brutally murdered, and now he was living in an orphanage. He felt utterly out of control, and his mind was buckling under the stress. He was told to stay away from the gates for a while since coming here would trigger his emotions, he should have listened. At first he felt like it was a really good idea, maybe get some closure or something. But that certainly wasn't what happened.
It was late in the afternoon, probably only 4 or 5, when Shishiwakamaru arrived. There was the normal traffic in and out of the village like there normally would be. For some reason this bothered him beyond measure. To think that they would so quickly resume normal operations after such a tragic event. He was still just a kid, so he wouldn't understand that things still needed to continue, even if a ninja lost his life. The internal agony he felt in this moment pushed him past his limit and he let everything he had out. "Ahhh!!!!!" He fell to his knees as he screamed. It hurt when his knees made contact with the hard ground, but it was nothing to the mental torment he felt. The multitudes of people around him gave him weird side eye glances before quickly moving along or away. They wanted nothing to do with him. Who could blame them, here was this boy that seemed to be screaming for no reason, and now he was crying, almost bawling really. What a sad sight to see...
