A New Namikaze
PrologueA young girl around thirteen was going up the hill, which lead away from the village. She was very skinny and dirty. People how didn't knew her, could have the idea that she was homeless or something like that. She was wearing a leaf headband and had a back bag, which seemed a little too big for her small body. A large grown puppy was following her every move. It was clear that the dog was hers. When the dog got closer, it was cleat, it wasn't an ordinary dog. A couple of large grey birdwings grew out from its back. They look strong enough for the dog to carry a passenger about the size of the girl.
When the girl got on the top of the hill long stripes in the dirt under her eyes showed that see just had been crying. Again and again, her forearm got up to her face to try to wipe the rest of the tears away. She kept mumbling something, which was impossible to understand.
When she got to the top, she turned around and looked back at the village.
Smoked still raised up, from the damage part of the village. It reminded her all too well, what had happen just a few hours ago. This place had been her home all her life. She had loved it, and she had never imagined any other home than this. It was unthinkable! It had been anyway.
Now there was nothing to keep her here. Well yes, there was, but not enough to make her stay after what had happened. And the one thing, there could have made her stay had been denied her!
She felt the anger rise up again in her body and she clenched her fists. The puppy looked nervously at her. It could feel her feelings. It came a little closer to her and the girl placed a hand on top of its head.
"I know, Lingo," she said to the dog. "But I really need to get away for a while."
She turned her back to the village and started to walk away, to leave her childhood home behind her, but a voice made her turn a look back.
"Numino, wait up!" it yelled.
She knew that voice, even though it had been a while since it had been the voice she had cared for. Now it was going rough and gowned up.
A boy, only a few years from being a man was running after her.
There was only two years between them, but he seemed much older than her.
For a few seconds she thought about just ignore him and keep going. He couldn't stop her anyway!
But jet, she just couldn't ignore him, not now even though they both had done it for years now.
He reached her and sent her a serious look.
"Is it true you're leaving?" he asked.
Like the girl, the boy was also wearing a leaf headband. But it was placed on his forehead in such a way that it covered his left eye. That didn't help to keep his mane of silver hair I place. It actually made him look messier. He was a lot bigger than her. He had grown a lot the last couple of years.
She had grown too, but not as much as he. She had always been a little small of her age.
It was like the gap between kept growing as their physical likens disappeared.
He was dressed in an amour. She didn't understand why since the war was over.
She had heard rumours about him joining the ANBU soon but she didn't know why he already dressed like one of them. He would fit well there, she thought. After all the ANBU's were wearing mask on their missions.
She turned back to reality and looked the buy, soon man in the somewhat disappointed.
He looked like her brother, when she had done something wrong.
A flash of pain went through her heart, when she thought of him.
"Yes," she finally answered him.
"You realise that you will solve nothing by running?" he asked and crossed his arms in front of his chest. He almost sounded like brother too.
"I'm not running," she said.
"Then what are you doing?"
"I need to be on my own for awhile."
"That's the same as running."
"No it isn't! I'm going to learn to protect myself."
"You can learn it here. And beside you already are capable of protecting yourself, even though you don't always think, you're not a complete weakling. No one could have done anything," suddenly he didn't sound so angry anymore. He sounded concerned. "Beside, you can't just leave. You're a shinobi! We don't just run away! You will be a rouge-ninja!"
He tried to sound professional, but it didn't quit succeed.
"I can't stand being here anymore! I have already spoken to the third. He is okay with me leaving, since he won't agree to my conditions" she explained.
"You're thinking about Naruto?" he asked, and this time she clearly sensed the pity in his voice. After all she knew, he cared about him too.
"It is just unfair! If I'm not allowed to be around him, then perhaps it's better if I'm not here at all!" she tried to keep the anger and the tears back, but it was too late!
He was quiet for a moment before he spoke again.
"How long will you be gone?"
She thought about it for a moment.
"I don't know. As long as I don't feel like coming back," she smiled. She hoped, it looked like looked like her old smile. But somehow she knew it didn't look real. Her eyes were not right. There were still tears in them. Then she turned away and started walking.
The boy just looked after her and the dog with something that looked like a sad. But then again he always looked sad.
Just before the girl disappeared in to the woods and the darkness of the night, he saluted after her:
"Numino!" he yelled.
She looked back at him, with a little sad smile and a excepting look.
"Take good care of yourself," he said. "Enough of your family have died lately."
She smiled and now it looked like her old flashing smile, which reminded him of her brother and a time longs pass.
"I wouldn't worry about me, if I were you." She turned around, but just before she disappeared, she said one last thing that was so low that the boy almost couldn't hear her:
"If I were you, I would worry about yourself, Kakashi."
And then she was gone. Leaving the village and anything in it behind.
