My first attempt to this story was a total failure. Nothing but bad reviews. Just so you know the characters might not act exactly like they do in the anime. That's because I'm not the amazing Kishimoto, instead I'm just some girl who sits in her bed typing these at three in the morning. Oh well, here's my second attempt at it.
Hay there my name is Jessica but my friends' call me Jess. I have short black hair with green eyes. I've been told I look more like my dad than my mom. I don't know exactly if that is supposed to be a compliment or whatever. I was gifted with a birthmark on my left leg. It's in the shape of a heart. It's very noticeable. I mean seriously, it's like three inches long by one and a half inches. Some kids thought it was a bruise or a tattoo. Yeah, like I'm gonna get a tattoo at five. That's when I was first asked that. Well that was eleven years ago.
Today is December tenth. I'm stuck in English class listening to my teacher talk about The Scarlet Letter. I accidently read ahead of everyone and finished the book a week ago. Everyone is still on chapter twelve. Some are finally finding out who the daddy is. I wasn't paying much attention to the teacher, instead I was staring out the window. The snow was falling slowly down to earth. "I love this time of year. It's so beautiful." Something dripped from my nose, blood.
I quickly cover my nose with my hand. "Mr. T, I need to see the nurse." He nods. On my way out I grab a few tissues. Sadly my most favorite season also gives me nose bleeds. I made my way down the steps and to the long hallway. This hallway separates the high school with the elementary. The nurse is in the elementary because those kids are always getting hurt. "Again?" She asked while putting a bandage on a child. I nod and giggle. Once it stopped bleeding, she helped me clean up the blood on my face. "Here's your pass."
"See you in thirty minutes." I joked and continue back down the hall. The hallway seemed even creepier for some reason. As if someone was going to pop up with a machete. "BOO!" I jump and nearly punch my friend in the nose. "Chase you suck!" He laughs at me.
"It was too easy. Where are you going?" Chase has short blond hair and green eyes. He can be an ass at times but he's cool. "English. And you?" He hold up a pink pass.
"Nurse. I was complaining about a headache."
"Trying to get out of math again?" He nods.
"See you in gym." He says before continuing his walk down to the nurse. I arrived back at English class, still boring. The bell finally rings, I jog my way to gym. It was also near the elementary. I quickly change into my gym clothes before the other girls show up. They always spray a lot of perfume to where if someone lit a match in there, we'd blow up. Chase was already waiting in the gym for me. "Ready for dodge ball?" He asked holding one of the rubber balls. "Oh yeah."
After roll call, the teacher split us up into two teams. Reds and Blues. Chase and I wear the same color shirt to make sure we are on the same team. We were put on the Blue team. Chase and I were getting people out left and right. I was catching, most of them, and he was throwing. I can't throw very hard and Chase can't always catch. A ball was coming in from above, its target was Chase. "Left." I tell him. He slides to the left and allows me to catch it, getting yet another classmate out.
"Nice." Chase said smiling at me. Another ball was coming in, and fast. I didn't have time to comprehend it. Instead I pushed him away and got pelted in the stomach. "Finally!" The guy who threw it cheered. I walk over to the edge of the gym. In a matter of moments Chase avenged me with the same ball I was hit with. One of the teachers walk over to me. "Jess, you've been called to the office. You can go change." With a nod I walk out of the gym and change. The office was by the high school area, it's one of the only things that are.
At the office Mrs. Roger, Chase's mom, was standing there waiting for me. "Hello Jess, you've got an appointment. Sorry I must have forgotten to tell you."
"Another doctor visit? Man they love hitting me with more meds. Okay, let's get going." She nods and I follow her out of the school. She brought me past the parking lot and across the road. "Mrs. Roger, where's your car?" She turns around. Her eyes were a crimson color. "Woah, your eyes are red. Neat."
"Heh, did you really think I was her?" She asks.
"Yeah until just now. I knew you were good at genjutsu but, wow." I move my hair out of my face.
"Thanks." She smiles and in a puff of smoke, she turns back into her gorgeous self. "Mrs. Kurenai, how did you get into this world?" I ask.
"I'll show you but you'll need to come with me. You are actually part of our mission." She stood at the edge of road waiting for my answer. "Would I ever be able to return? Could I bring a close friend?" She shook her head. My choices were stay in this boring world with my friends or escape it and go somewhere with adventure. "I'm sorry Chase. I'll find a way to bring you with me."
"For the sake of your mission, I'll go." She grinned and created several hand signs, none of which I could make out from how fast she did them. A blue portal appeared. Kurenai grabbed my hand as we walked through. I can't wait. Maybe I could learn some medical jutsu like what Rin or Sakura know. On the other side, Kiba, Hinata, and Shino were sitting in the shade. Akamaru barked in our direction to get their attention. "Welcome back." Kiba said petting Akamaru.
"Jess I'm sure you know who these people are." She looks down at me. Her facial expression turned into surprise. "Yes." I must have something stuck in my throat. "That's Kiba." I said pointing to him. My hands were much smaller. All of me was smaller. My grey hoodie and jeans turned into a black long sleeved shirt and black shorts with a light purple apron. "What the?!" I looked all over at me. None of it was me. "Why am I her?"
"Jess?" Kurenai asks. "Sorry, it's me. Kind of."
"Did you do this?" She asked. I shake my head.
"I don't think so." Whatever has occurred, I'm sure it's reversible. "Anyway, that's Shino Aburame and she's Hinata Hyuuga." I smile over at them.
"Everyone this is Jessica." Kiba waves and Akamaru sniffs me. "So the mission is a success?" Kiba asked.
"Yes, ready to head back to the Hokage?" The three nod. "I just need to stop at this little town then we can be on our way."
The town had many shops open with various items. One was selling masks. A beautiful blue one caught my eye. There was black eyeliner that gave it the look of a cat. There was no mouth on the mask only eyes. Out of sheer luck, there was actually money in one of my pouches. I bought it and scurried back to the others. "That's really pretty." Hinata complimented.
"Thanks. You're really kind." She smiles. "OMG super cute." This is so cool. I am in this unique world with all these people. I would have loved it if Chase could have come with. He would have loved it more than me. Chase probably would try to fight Kakashi. That was his one goal if he ever went to this place. "Kakashi would totally kick his ass… OH I forgot about Kakashi!" I grabbed Hinata's shoulder to get her attention. "I forgot that this person I am currently, is dead."
"Then how are you her?" I shrug my shoulders.
"Anyway, if Kakashi sees my, er her face, he could have nightmares again. Could you help me find something to hide myself?" With a nod she brings me down to one of the shops. There were many different jackets, cloaks, and some weird cape like things. Hinata and I found a long black cloak with a hood. The cloak had two side pockets and four on the inside. "That could come in handy." The sleeves were so long that if I put my arms strait, I would drape over my hands. The most of me you could see was my feet. "Perfect." I said pulling the hood over my face.
Kurenai and the other two see Hinata and me walking up. Akamaru barked at me. Hinata explained to them why I was like that. Kurenai said she remembered Rin. The boys promised they wouldn't tell Kakashi.
We were very close to the village as it was. When we passed the gates, I felt like it was just too good to be true. Like this was just some dream and I was going to wake up any moment. When we reached Tsunade's office, the doors were shut.
Kurenai knocks on the door. "Come in." Tsunade tells us. We open the door and Sai, Sakura, and Naruto himself were standing there. Naruto was talking to Tsunade. "Can I please have a more challenging mission?" Tsunade had a lot of scrolls and papers on and around her desk. It must be really stressful with all of those. She rubs she temples and looks over at us. "You want a difficult mission?" He nods.
"Here it is," She smiles and motions for us to move closer. Hinata looked over at Naruto and her face was a light shade of pink. "That's adorable."
"Your mission will be to help strengthen Seer's abilities." Naruto looked at us, as did everyone else. "Who's the seer?" I look at Kurenai, who was already looking at me. "Who's the Seer?"
"You Jess. That's why you were part of our mission." That doesn't seem right.
"How?" I ask. Tsunade speaks up "You have the ability to see the future and act accordingly," She pauses for a moment. "We've seen some things you've done. And you do have at least a little of the ability." They've been watching me?
"How long have you been watching me?" Tsunade searches for a paper under the piles that were there. She finds the sheet she was looking for. It had a picture of me smiling on it. "About three months." She hands the paper over to Sakura. "Can you make sure she gets this medicine when needed?" Sakura nods looking at the paper. I couldn't read any of it, considering it was all in Japanese. Naruto was looking over Sakura's shoulders, trying to read the profile. "It says she's five foot two. But she's not even five feet."
"Something happened when she went through. Her… everything changed into Rin. If you look in the files of the Third Shinobi in the deceased section. You'll find her name." Tsunade gave her a questioning look.
"Why would she be dead if she's standing right here?" I chuckle.
"You're not the first to ask that. And none of us know." I say. "Just don't utter her name to anyone who wasn't in this room. That includes your sensei." I turned my head to face Naruto, Sai, and Sakura. They nod. Looks like I don't need to explain any further.
Naruto looks back at Tsunade. "How do we train her?"
"That's for you to figure out. If it's too difficult I could just let them continue working with her." Tsunade sat back in her chair. Naruto shook his head. "We got this. No need to reassign." He said walking out the door. Sakura folded my file and put it in a pouch of hers. I follow her and Sai as they went after Naruto.
"Sorry I'm late." I hear Kakashi's voice in Tsunade's office.
"Kakashi, I'm glad you're here. You've been assigned a mission." Tsunade said. I couldn't hear the rest because I was trying to keep up with everyone. Naruto went to the nearest training field. He was really excited for this mission. "Naruto why did you rush out of there? Tsunade wasn't finished."
"Oh, hehe. Sorry." Sakura shook her head. I walk up next to her. "Sakura, I have an idea for me to train."
"What would that be?" She didn't question how I knew her name.
"If I wear a blindfold for a while, I'd learn quicker."
"That sounds like a great idea." She smiled. "Oh hay Kakashi." I stiffen up and turn around.
"Hay there." He said waving. I whisper into Sakura's ear, "How long was he standing there?"
"Only a few seconds." She smiled. "Sensei she had an idea that might help with the training." He nods.
"That's good. Tsunade said she wants us on the move till she can control it better. Someone else has entered the same way Jessica did." Someone came here? "Get ready, we leave in an hour." The three nod before leaving me alone with Kakashi. We just stood there, neither of us bother taking. I kept my distance from him. If I felt like he was going to move closer, I'd back up. After a good ten minutes like that, Sakura showed up. Kakashi left to go and pack as well.
"I'm assuming you didn't talk to him."
"You'd be correct." I said looking at the ground. Sai and Naruto arrived not long after Sakura. We ended up waiting a good thirty minutes after the time we were supposed to leave because Kakashi still wasn't there. When he did finally show up, his excuse was that a black cat crossed his path. No one believed him.
~Chase, Earlier that day~
Jess had left gym sometime after she got hit. Without her, I kept losing. I called my mom to see if she had gone home sick or something. She said she didn't. I went to the office. "Chase, your mother picked her up for an appointment."
"That's impossible. She said she was at work all day." The office lady, Mrs. Jay, smile fell.
"Then who did we let take her?" My heart dropped.
"Someone took her with them?" I drop to my knees. Mrs. Jay comes around the corner to me. "Could her dad be involved in this? No he's locked up." I tried to think of anything that might tell me who took her. "Are you sure it was my mom?" She nods.
It could be a really good makeup artist or, hell, some ninja using jutsu to disguise themselves. "Yeah right." My mother showed up at the office after Mrs. Jay had called her.
"Mom, someone took Jess." I said with tears in my eyes. I almost never cry, but when it comes to Jess.
"I know. I'm already having the police look into it. But from the tapes, it looks like me." She shakes her head. "My buddy knows it's not me because we were both on patrol." Oh I forgot to mention, she's also a cop.
"Mom I need to find her. You know how she is around men." She nods.
"Yes sweetie, I know." I grip onto my pants. "I… I have to go find her!" I run out of the office and into the freezing outdoors. I ran for as long as I could. Only to stop to rest under a big oak tree about two miles from the school.
"Are you Jessica's friend?" I heard someone ask. I whip my head around to see who was there. Itachi Uchiha and Kisame Hoshigaki. What the hell are anime characters doing in real life? "Yeah, why?" I say trying to catch my breath.
"We know where your friend is." Kisame said. My eyes widen. "All you have to do is come with us."
"First tell me where she is." I demand.
"She's in Konoha." Itachi said. How is any of this possible? This shouldn't be real.
"I'll go." My one goal is to find Jess and bring her home. No matter the cost. If I must become a villain, I will.
Okay so that's the end of Chapeter one attempt two. I hope you enjoyed it. I promise it will get better.
