Terror. Unbridled terror. The realization has dawned upon me, the knowledge of where I am and what has happened to me - it has only fueled my desire to flee this place, leave this life behind. But . . . I can't. I can't let myself flee and leave them behind; that is not who I am.
When she had lost her life in her fight against a rare and deadly disease of the blood, she was content to disappear into the Eternal Void that is Death. However, the Fates had much greater plans for her existence.
Now, reborn into a new life and a new existence, she finds that she has replaced the hero of this world, the Chosen One, the prophecy child: Naruto Uzumaki - now suddenly a female. And now she has to find a way to save this world, and all of the people in it - all while playing the appropriate part. Or not.
I know, I know! You guys are probably super annoyed that I'm starting another story, but this was just begging to be written.
I'm sure you have read some fanfiction that this is similar to, that has the same idea behind it, but I promise you that this one will be different. Promise.
Disclaimer: I cannot claim Naruto; that's Kishimoto-sensei's toy - I'm just playing with it.
Atlas
Part 1
North
"Which way do I go?" he inquires, looking about with a distinct lack of curiosity, as if he has already seen all this world had to offer and more. The look on his face holds the definite suggestion of a lack of him being impressed; he is not impressed, not with anything in this world or outside of it.
It is a surprisingly mature look for one so young, that knowing, experienced gleam in his eyes accompanied by an emotionless look upon his face.
I shrug, uncaring as I sheathe my katana. "I suppose it depends on where you want to go, and whether or not you want to go anywhere at all," I reply easily enough, wiping a smear of blood from my cheeks.
"I want to go home."
I smile humorlessly. "There is no such thing as home - didn't you know that? Not anymore."
He stares at me, his uncannily intelligent eyes gleaming in the dim light my fire provides - flickering as it is. He waits for me to answer, never looking away from me.
I remain silent as well, regarding him as he regards me - in the silent breath of the night, when the stars gleam overhead into the twilit blanket of night. After a long moment of silence, I smile at him again, a mocking tilt to my lips. "North," I answer simply, packing up and preparing to leave the camp.
"What?"
"If you want to go home, go North," I repeat, giving him one last glance. My smile morphs into something kinder, a gentle look that speaks of understanding.
"That's your way home."
And such begins the story of the Fem!Naruto, whose name I have not decided yet. What do you guys think her name should be? Take into mind, though, that she can't have the name 'Naruto' or a name similar to it; she's got a bit of a complicated back-story. But I want you guys' opinion and advice, so please let me know.
Question: Most heroic character in Naruto? Like who is your hero?
Well, I've got to go now! Bye!
