-Chapter 1-
A purple-headed girl warily glanced up to a shop's glass window. She stood on her tiptoes, trying to get a better glimpse of what's inside. This new anime store located in front of their school just had its grand opening yesterday, which is a Sunday.
So early in the morning, technically 6 am, she came rushing here to avoid her fellow, fangirling otakus from crowding the store, which means maximizing her chance to wander in the shop peacefully.
With a smirk, she swiftly opened the glass door and made her way inside. The mixed scent of the citrus fragrance of the air conditioning and the plastic merchandises greeted her nostrils. The room is dimly-lighted; she looked around and spotted a lady in the cashier table. The said woman in a rare get-up, cosplaying a well-known anime character known to be 'Tsunade'
From her whole appearance until the way she sat, she is greatly similar to Tsunade. May it be the blonde hair, the diamond thing in her forehead or the aura of toughness radiating within her.
She grinned widely, keeping her inner fangirl in place. She kneeled on one knee and bowed slightly. "Hokage-sama" she muttered. Without her notice, the lady smirks widely, trying to go on with the flow.
"What do you need?" She said with a tone full of authority while writing something in a pile of papers. If it was in the anime, she supposed that it would be letters of approval regarding the proposals of other villages on rank A missions, but in this case in reality, it's probably the monthly sales of the shop.
"I was thinking if you have some spare Konoha hitai-ate, Hokage-sama. But if you don't, pardon my interruption." Kurumi replied.
"Oh, you mean those things?" She glanced up and found the lady pointing to a particular shelf. It displays different colored head protectors which ae neatly arranged atop if it.
"Thanks for purchasing, please come again!"
School finished fast and before she knew it, she's on her way back home together with the other students. She smirked and grabbed the hitai-ate she bought his morning and sprinted, imitating the kunoichis from Konohagakure.
She halted abruptly when a rare figure caught her attention in an alley; it has weird, swirling rainbow colors. Being a normal 12-year-old girl she is, she approached it to somehow satisfy her curiosity. When she was 5-meters away from touching it, the figure disappeared and suddenly appeared infront of her.
"Sister." The figure muttered, but Kurumi only had her mouth agape. There was an awkward silent, the fluttering sound of her Akatsuki cloak is the only thing audible at the moment.
After a few seconds, the girl has gotten over her shock and backed off slightly. "K-Konan" The girl stuttered, making the older one widen her eyes for a millisecond. 'How did she know my name, did she recover her memories?'
"Come with me, sister." Konan offered her hand, but Kurumi only backed off even more.
"Woah, what's going on?" She clutched her head, hoping that she was just dreaming or hallucinating because of overwatching Naruto. But no, she wasn't. Konan stared at her dead in the eyes.
"Calm down Kurumi, I'll tell you everything." She smiled, with a blink of an eye, Konan poked Kurumi's forehead, reversing the jutsu using her chakra. Waves of memories from her past rushed into her. All of the questions regarding her identity and even the littlest details were finally set free.
After what seems like eternity, she faced her sister and hugged her tightly. Feeling thte warmth she never felt for the past years. After convincing Kurumi, they were engulfed by a white blinding light then rays of black started emitting everywhere and red cracks started to appear.
Kurumi started to panic, what the heck is going on? The portal is breaking, and this would only happen if someone interrupted Konan's real body while she's performing the jutsu.
"Look what you've done Tobi, you made her lose her focus-un!"
"Tobi is SORRY! Tobi is a good boy!"
Konan suddenly opened her eyes, seeing their dark hideout. She aggressively looked around, looking for a trace of her sister, but there was none.
Her blood boiled, glaring at Tobi with a murderous aura.
"I'll kill you."
Kurumi woke up in an unusual pathway, she opened her eyes, only to be blinded by the sun rays. She can't move a single finger, she was all numb.
"Hey, are you okay?" She hesitantly looked up, but she realized that it's actually the only thing she was capable to do at the moment. She met an onyx aye, since the other one was covered by a cloth with a metal that has a very familiar symbol carved on it.
She widened her eyes, spotting a male that has a silver, gravity-defying hair, smiling at her with eyes closed like some waiter welcoming her to a five-star restaurant.
She can't believe it. Konan indeed warped her in their world.
