The Shaman Ninja
Chapter 1 Kenny
"There was always harmony in the village hidden by smoke but 20 years ago there was a disturbance between two of the shaman clans. The wolf wielding shaman and the bat wielding shaman were having a war. This scared the ninja as they knew that the village would be more vulnerable if one or more of the sectors were left unprotected".
"The war lasted for about 6 months when the 3rd Head Ninja and the Chief Shaman decided to put a stop to the war, they fought valiantly but they were no match for the attacks from the wolves or bats. They thought there efforts were for nothing but another ninja stood and fought beside them"
The teacher looked at the faces of his 3 students "Kenny, Who was the ninja that had appeared and fought beside the 3rd Head Ninja and the Chief Shaman"
Kenny looked about the room "Well, eh I think it was Pyhtonidae sensei" Kenny smiled and nodded "Yeah I am pretty sure it was him"
The teacher shook his head "Kenny not only have you gave the wrong answer but you have mistaken one of the greatest ninja of all time for a chakra sucking back stabbing traitor" He looked at Kenny with seriousness in his eyes "Kenny how could you not know that it was the 5th ninja to become Head Ninja, Kenzai Mitsuni"
Kenny shrugged his shoulders "It's not like I was there or anything"
"Kenny how dare you think like that, if you don't remember history you are doomed to repeat it" A young girl shouted in his ear
Kenny looked at the girl in amazement "Wow I have never thought about it like that, Oh well my bad so when are we going to do our training for today Zeke sensei"
Zeke was shocked "Kenny how can you be so calm about not knowing anything about out villages history … You know what never mind lets just go out to the training fields we will work on our chakra control"
Kenny was distort, his face was twisted and his eyes were full of regret "Sensei cant we work on fighting with our spirit mediums"
Zeke looked at Kenny "No Kenny just because you can't harness your chakra yet doesn't mean you shouldn't learn these techniques for the future and plus you're the only one without a medium"
Kenny folded his arms and started to hold his breath
Zeke laughed "You know that won't work on me, Now lets go"
Kenny stood up "…..Fine"
Kenny followed Zeke and his class mates outside to the training fields. There were target manikins, weights, chakra armour and ninja projectile weapons.
"Right students today we are going to practice Chakra control, so everyone take your positions" Zeke looked across the field and then his eyes rested on Kenny "Kenny you know that isn't the position I taught you, now move your feet so they are a shoulders width apart, lean forward slightly and concentrate on gathering and controlling your power"
Kenny did as Zeke instructed but it was no use he just couldn't get the hang of it, and the other students noticed this.
"Can you believe Kenny he has been here for as long as the rest of us and he still cant summon any chakra, If i was him i would quit" Rose said to another student
"Yeah I can't believe it either, if was as bad as him I wouldn't show my face around here" Abi agreed
"Zeke sensei can I just go practice something else please" Kenny begged
Zeke took pity on Kenny "Ok Kenny you can go practice your Tai Jutsu"
Kenny smiled "Thanks sensei"
Kenny spent the rest of the school day training on his Tai Jutsu. He headed home feeling like a failure. Kenny had never compared himself to the rest of his group but after today's class he couldn't help but do so. Kenny wasn't exactly smart or a talented fighter. Rose was a lot smarter and Abi had already learned a lot more jutsus than Kenny.
Kenny walked up the stairs into his apartment. After today he was looking for someone to confide in but there was no-one there, Kenny never had any family and he always felt alone. It was tough for him to learn anything with no-one to explain things to him or help him to learn it.
