Chapter 1: Broken I do not own Naruto
The sound of a door being opened down a long passageway caused Kimimaro to open his eyes. Same as before same as it always has been, wake when they serve his meals, listen to their degrading comments, then watch as they walk away, taking the shimmers of daylight that manage to creep down the narrow passage with them.
Two of them, they walked down the passage slowly before finally reaching his cell. "Well don't you just look chipper this morning? What's the matter? Rocks not comfy enough for you Kimi?" The larger of the two laughed. The smaller one simply laughed far to much than the joke deserved.
Kimimaro lifted his eyes to meet the loudmouth. "Laugh all you want, I may be in the cage but you are trash who has to cleanup and take care of me." Kimimaro said after rolling his eyes at the idiots attempt at humor. "And you? Do you not have anything better to do than tag along and giggle at your boyfriend's dumb jokes?"
The smaller of the two shut his mouth and looked away while the larger one proceeded to turn a few shades of red and threw Kimimaro's bowl of God-only-knows what at the cage. The steamy substance landed on Kimimaro's arm and he proceeded to raise his arm to his mouth and lick the offensive dish from his appendage.
He then stood and faced the two buffoons and ran his energy through his body to produce a dagger from his elbow joint. He pointed the blade at the two and cocked his head with a grin. "Tell the clan elders if I ever see you two again, they will have a mess to clean up outside my cell."
Eyes bulged to a humorous size and the two idiots proceeded to run into each other, and then attempted a run which consisted of cussing in tripping all the way down the passage. The door shut with a slam and the slivers of sunlight that had been there moments before were gone yet again.
This was the darkness he lived in, this was the darkness he knew, and he had a sinking feeling he would be in the darkness for a very long time. The clan punishes him by starvation whenever he acts up.
Kimimaro took a deep breath then laughed for a moment. He was already regretting his decision to scare the two fools. Not because of the food, but because the large one had soiled himself and left a rather unpleasant smell for him to deal with until someone finally came to check on him.
"...Damnit. I guess it really CAN get worse after all." Kimimaro said with a sigh as he laid down to rest. He closed his eyes and focused on memories of before he was placed in this god-awful place. The feel of sun on his skin, the sound of the ocean and all it's untamed glory, the smell of the flowers and plants around his home, his mother...
He drifted to sleep in the darkness that had been his home for longer than he could remember. He dreamed of the outside world and all it's promises. Promises that would never be his...
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
So that's it for my first chapter. The others will be longer, this was just to introduce my main character and a little insight into his personality. The story is going to focus on an alternate time line, in which Kimimaro...doesn't exactly become a good guy but he doesn't exactly die either.
I love Kimimaro's abilities and I was upset that they did such an interesting back story only to have him die so quickly.
As for pairings, I'm thinking Kimi/Ino, seems strange? You will have to read to find out how it works. And I'm going to do Kiba/Hinata in the later chapters.
Naruto might get tossed a minor character for a date but don't expect much on his front. I'm not too fond of Naruto as a character.... It's the jumpsuit.
Well hopefully you will stick with me through this. This is my first story so be gentle and help me out if you can.
