A/N: HI there readers! So this is my first fanfiction here that I am also currently writing in a separate notebook. I will be using Spanish in this fanfiction…so yeah. This is for my friend, Atanih-chan who has been nagging me about this story (I thank you for that Atanih-chan!). Ssssoooo…I hope you guys like it. I do not own Naruto. If I did, the space time continuum would be in chaos right now.
Chapter 1: A Foreign Land and Wolf Fangs
Konohagakure (1)…
The name sounded so strange to the little five-year-old girl who held tightly on to her mother's hand as her father spoke to a man who seemed to be guarding the giant gate before her. There was another man there as well who seemed scary from the child's point of view. They both seemed strange and intimidating from their clothes to the weapons they held in their hands. Her mother and father had mentioned this strange land and had told her its name…Konohagakure which, according to her parents, was going to be her new home. It was all rather sudden for her mother and father to come here without a reason. Well, she was just a child. She was given no reason to as of why her parents decided to come to this foreign land. The child did not know that in these people's eyes they were the foreigners. Considering these war times in the Shinobi world, being a foreigner in a Shinobi village that was supposedly hidden was not exactly a good thing. The guards at the gates had every right to be suspicious of anyone that tried to get into their village without identification. The little girl hid behind her mother as one of the guards looked at her with a piercing glare. The glare then turned to a soft gaze as the guard realized it was a young child he had frightened. The child smiled as she came out of her hiding place and looked up at her mother who did not look at her and continued to wear a worried expression on her face.
"Mami (2)…" the child started to say to her mother as she slightly tugged her mother's pink shirt in order to get her attention. Her mother diverted her eyes from the scene before her and looked at her daughter with a stern look.
"Sssshhh…ahorita no es tiempo para hablar Kyra (3)." The little girl, whose name was apparently Kyra, frowned at the response she was given and sulked for a couple of seconds. Kyra glanced up at her father who was getting flustered since these two guards did not speak the same language as they did. Kyra's emerald green eyes were filled with curiosity and confusion when she sensed something or someone headed their way. It happened to be a lot of someones. No one seemed to take notice of this but Kyra which appeared interestingly odd to her. How could they not feel those strange energy pulses?
"Alguien viene (4)…" Kyra whispered. As soon as she said these words, a group consisting of four people appeared in a lightning flash motion. These newcomers wore porcelain animal masks which concealed their faces and seemed to be wearing a uniform of some kind since they all wore the same black and grey armor with arm guards. Three of the four had a spiral tattoo on their left shoulders while one of the four had the same kind of tattoo on their right shoulder. The guards and Kyra's parents were in a state a sock for a moment as these strangers appeared.
"What seems to be the problem here?" One of them asked the guards.
The guard that had given Kyra a death glare before decided to speak up and said, "We are having a bit of trouble here. We don't know what these people want seeing as we can't understand a single word that they are saying."
"Are they ninja?"
"It seems unlikely that the adults are…but the child…" said the one with the tattoo on their right shoulder. They all turn to look at Kyra as they took in the next words that were said. "She has a fair amount of chakra…strange chakra though. I don't believe they pose a threat to us. I don't sense anything strange do you?"
They all agreed and decided it would be best to take the family to the Hokage. "Hok…age?" questioned Kyra to her mother. Her mother's brown orbs turned to her and a small smile formed on her lips to help assure her little daughter that everything would be alright. Kyra's father glanced at his wife and daughter with a confounded look plastered on his face. He had not understood what words had been exchanged among these people let alone his wife and child. The small family seemed uncomfortable by the look of things and the uniformed strangers noticed this. The one with the tattoo on their right shoulder who happened to have the voice of a woman kneeled down to Kyra's eye level and patted her hair affectionately to help Kyra feel at peace. Kyra smiled at the woman in uniform as the woman stood up and offered Kyra her hand to show her the way to the village beyond the gate.
Somewhere far from Konohagakure…
It seemed that today would be a very nice pleasant day for Mikan no Tsukigakure (5). The sun glistened slightly above the clouds that had lingered longer than the ones that had created rain the day before. The people below the sky were in a state of peace unlike most Shinobi villages. This village had been spared from all the death and sorrows that came with war…but was it safe from the chaos of a nonhuman being?
Mikan no Tsukigakure was a small village but was widely known because of its infamous and powerful clan. Yes, the Yugauh Clan had made its mark on the Shinobi world and was known as the Ookami Akuma Clan (6).This widely known clan always tends to stay away from outsiders unknown to the clan. Members of the clan are referred to as Wind Elementals or Masters of the Wind. Members of this particular clan were known to be cruel and ruthless in battle. However, they were very loyal to their village and had courage. Their kind of loyalty and courage was a rarity not found in many and because of this little Atanih Yugauh was proud to be part of such a clan. Atanih Yugauh was a young five-year-old girl with a dream to be one of the greatest kunoichis in history! However, that dream seemed very far away at this moment in time. You see, Atanih was already enrolled at the Ninja Academy but she would not start until tomorrow.
"Tomorrow is taking forever mother!" yelled Atanih with her arms outstretched dramatically. Her mother looked at her daughter who was sprawled on the soft rug of the floor and chuckled.
"Patience is a virtue."
"Patience sucks."
"Patience is what every great ninja has."
"…" Atanih stood halfway up and 'hmphed' at what her mother said. Her mother sat next to her daughter and ran her fingers through Atanih's long black hair. Atanih's white lavender eyes softened and looked at her mother. "I saw six bwack birds today while I was pwaying with the wolfs." Her mother froze for a moment. Six crows was an omen of death to come. At the same time, a shrill cry was heard from the outskirts of the Yugauh compounds. Atanih jumped from the sound of it and stood up immediately. "Mother?" Atanih's mother had disappeared from her side for a moment but reappeared behind her.
"You must hide!"
"But-"
"No buts. Come let's go back to the main house and hopefully we run into your father." Atanih nodded and followed her mother outside. As soon as they were outside, cries and screams were heard from the front gates of the village. Large blazes could be seen from some parts of the village. But what shocked Atanih the most was not the rising flames. It was a giant creature about fifteen or twenty feet tall. It looked like a giant wolf with piercing yellow eyes and massive razor fangs. It was a demon. And it was attacking the village.
