Lighting VS Sand: Find love in the Night

The Loveless Valentine

Chapter 1

TLV: WhyDoesEveryoneIgnoreMe on Quizilla inspired me to work harder on my stories. I know my chapters aren't long but this one without all the random crap at the top and bottom and music lyrics is over 1,500 words. So I hope you enjoy this Sasuke/Oc/Gaara love story. Right now it's T for language and perverted jokes that will come in the future. It might change but for now it's T. So please give me your ideas or criticism to make it better. Thank you! Oh and I don't own anything other than Mizuki, her jutsus, and the plot!

"Ah," I breathed out in relaxation, "The midnight air feels so right." A small smile curled my naturally red lips. I was standing in a tree, staring at the full moon with the two longest locks of my medium silver bob haircut blowing in the wind. My deep crimson eyes seemed to express my contentment like an open book. I suddenly dropped from my place, falling at a fast rate to the soft dirt ground. At the last possible second I extended my legs so that her small feet made contact. When flesh met earth, I pushed off and flipped four times before coming back down and landing in a pose; one leg extended and the other bent. I slowly rose up and began walking with a woman-like grace even though I was only twelve.

I was heading to a place called Konohagakure, the hidden leaf village of ninjas. I had come from a secret ninja village that no one knew about one without a name, some would call it "The Bloody Hidden Village of the Night" or "Bloody Night Village". I had no reason to leave but I did, for what you would call a sense of freedom or adventure.

I reached the gates of Konoha half an hour later and sighed, "Didn't expect it to take so long." I began to search the area for any presences of guards or ninjas. Soon I pinpointed the exact location of the guards and made my way over. Once I reached them, I wasn't even noticed! I smirked slightly and coughed loudly, gaining their attention just as my smirk dropped.

"What are you doing here so late?" One of the guards asked in a strong but confused voice.

"I want to live here. My old village kicked me out." I lied. My voice was timid and scared, if it was coming from someone else, I would have thought the person was seriously afraid.

"What is your name little girl?" The other asked in a kind, gentle tone.

"M-my name is Mizuki Takahashi." I stuttered, hoping it would make my act more believable even though I was again lying about my second name.

"You'll have to speak with the 3rd Hokage about this, but I doubt he's awake at this time." The first guard mused.

"I-I could wait by the gate until morning, when the Hokage is in." I smiled weakly, just before I made myself faint.

In about 7 hours, I had awakened in a pure white room, much to my displeasure. "Why is the room so white?" I growled. I narrowed my eyes since I could not take the brightness.

"That was unexpected, considering how you acted a while ago." An older male voice spoke. I looked to the source to find an old man in the Hokage outfit. I automatically registered that the man was the 3rd Hokage.

"Oh, I'm sorry, Hokage-sama. It's just that I am from the Bloody Night Village and it's a custom there that there is no pure white." I smiled.

"So that's where you come from." He nodded and held his pipe to his mouth. "Why were you kicked out?"

"Well I was sent out to go find somewhere to train, seeing as I was better than the ANBU." I shrugged lightly at the elder's surprise.

"Are you planning on becoming a Leaf ninja?"

"Yes, although I'd like to start out as a student. I want to see how skilled they are first hand."

"But today is the day before the final exam."

"Well, I don't need to catch up, so why not just let me be in the class and take the test?"

"Good point. School starts in an hour, there are fresh clothes in the dresser." He promptly left the room after adding that a Jounin would escort me there. I jumped out of bed and rushed to the dresser.

From there I picked out a long sleeve fishnet shirt, a light blue off-the-shoulder top, with white ninja pants. I decided to keep I black ninja shoes on and smiled, "Not like it's bright orange or pink. That would be a dead giveaway." I headed into the bathroom to take a quick five minute shower and do other morning preparation. Soon I was out and escorted to the school by a Jounin named Kakashi Hatake. From what I saw of his face, he was handsome, but not my type and plus he's way too old for me. I entered the room to find that all the students were in a line, transforming into the apparent sensei.

"Iruka." Kakashi called and the teacher looked over, "This is your new student, Mizuki Takahashi."

"But there are only two days of classes left!" Iruka shouted in surprise.

"I don't need to catch up, I know from basic to advance. I could take the test right now and pass with flying color." I piped up, smirking.

"Well let's see what you got then." He coughed and motioned me inside.

"But what about the others?" I asked, referring to the other students.

"I'm almost done testing them."

"Finish." I said, as if I was commanding him, "Never leave what you've started, especially in a battle." I nodded, earning strange looks from everyone except the emo one with duck butt hair. Iruka just shook it off and finished evaluating the other students. Kakashi was long gone by that time. I smiled as Iruka was finally ready to examine my skill. Why not show him one of my own moves? I held out my hand and let chakra run through it soon black lightning erupted from my hand. "This is one of own ninjutsus. Yoru no arashi: Reitō raitoningu or Night Storm: Frozen Lightning. I don't know why it is black but this lighting freezes anything it touches." I directed the lighting to a piece of paper left on a desk and it was frozen. I summoned a small tiger to fetch it for me. The tiger jumped and quickly gave it to me. I thanked it sweetly and dismissed her. I showed the paper did not bend over as I held it up before shattering it into pieces. "Are you impressed yet?"

"So what? You froze a piece of paper! Big deal! I'm going to be the next Hokage so I'm much better than you! Believe it!" An orange ninja yelled out. God I could tell I was going to hate him.

"Naruto, be quiet! Not even Sasuke could create his own ninjutsu at this age!" Iruka shouted back at this so-called Naruto person. He calmed and returned his attention to me and smiled, "It's quite impressive that you've created such a complex ninjutsu, getting lightning down to a subzero temperature is impossible… How did you do it?"

"I can't tell you that just yet, sensei. It's bad enough that I had to reveal one of my weaker ninjutsus." I smirked, crossing my arms.

"Well you definitely know the basics if you can create a ninjutsu, but I'd like to see your taijutsu talents." Iruka nodded.

"Put me against your any of your students or maybe fight me yourself?" I challenged.

"Sasuke Uchiha, step forward." Iruka commanded and emo duck butt stepped out of line. What? Is everyone fashionably challenged? First the orange traffic cone, Sasuke, then there's Miss Pinky. Wait, what am I even talking about? Oh well.

"So he is the best in taijutsu?" I prompted.

"He's Konoha's number one rookie." Iruka responded.

"Are weapons allowed?" I wondered.

"No, taijutsu only." Iruka stated.

"Alright, no forbidden techniques either. Those would be meaningless in a spar like this." I nodded to Sasuke, who just looked bored.

"Too bad your emo attitude can't help you in the abyss known as night." My voice was dark and intimidating as my eyes flashed midnight black. "I could be called pure darkness or pure light, but all you need to know is that I can end your existence entirely." I smirked and got into a normal fighting stance. This was going to be really fun.

:;:;:;:;Sasuke's POV:;:;:;:;:

What the hell is up with that girl? How could she develop a ninjutsu like that? That shouldn't be possible! And what's with her going up against me? This Mizuki Takahashi is an enigma. With every word she spoke, she confused me, making me lose my comprehension. What is it about this girl that intrigues me to no end? She does have a resemblance to that guy with the mask, but she's definitely unrelated to him. Who the hell is she anyway? It makes no sense. Her joining at the last training day and her unbelievable skill… Not like she matters! No she doesn't matter to me. She's just another girl. That's all.

TLV: OWARI! I hope you liked and again, please let me know if you feel something is bad. Please! I hope to continue this one until the end with the combination of my ideas with yours.
