Tsunade was on her training trip in the Slug Bone Forest when she saw a bright light shining in the sky. It was getting bigger and bigger until suddenly it crash landed in a far-away mountain.
Using her ninja skills, she traversed the terrains with inhuman speed. What she found would stay a mystery for the next 12 years...
Mito is a 12-year old girl with blonde hair and blue eyes. She is quite energetic for a girl her age and way more intelligent than most girls in general. She is also an aspiring ninja, a medic nin to be exact, just like her mother who is renowned to be the greatest healer and strongest female ninja, Tsunade of the sannin.
She just finished her training exercise and was walking towards their dwelling when she heard murmurs coming from their house. It was her mother and siste/aunt figure talking.
"...e should tell her the truth."
"I will tell her Shizune, but not now, I promise I will once I see the time is right."
"But when will that be? You always say that Tsunade-sama!"
"Mom, sis, what's going on? What are you hiding from me?"
Tsunade ans Shizune looked at Mito with sadness in their eyes.
"Mito my darling daugther, come to mommy sweetheart."
"Yes mom?"
"I'm sorry we didn't tell you sooner but you are not my real daughter."
*gasp*
"Tsunade-sama! Must you be so blunt?"
"Shizune, you were the one who keeps bugging me to tell her. I just told her so shut up."
"Ayieeee sorry..."
"What are you saying, mom? I am your real daughter. If you mean I am not your biological daugther, I already knew that but you raised me since I was a baby, you even breastfed me! That makes me your real daughter, right?"
!
"Wha-"
"You knew? Since when?"
"Well I was cleaning the house the other day and saw some strange paper. When I picked it up, it glowed and showed some writing. It was a step by step instruction on how to do a DNA test. I found some of your hair in your comb so I thought it would be a nice idea to try if it works or not. I was skeptical at first when the result was negative and thought it was a fluke but then I tried it again using your drool on the table and my own saliva and the result was the same."
Well, that's convenient.
"I see, I'm sorry you had to know that way Mito."
"It's ok mom, I understand. I just want to know if you know who my real parents are or where I'm from."
"It's something I can't just explain to you, it's better if I just show you but first..."
Tsunade quickly did a few handsigns and the whole house was covered in privacy seals. Shen then unbottoned her shirt and an invisible seal located at the center of her cleavage glowed and there was a popping sound of something getting summoned.
A sealing scroll.
She opened the scroll and unsealed the contents. It was a good thing their house was spacious, else it would have exploded when a strange object came out of the scroll.
"Mom, what is that?"
"This is where I found you Mito."
"It looks...weird."
"You don't say."
And it really does. The object in question looks like polygon with five sides. Two adjacent sides are the longest and have the same lenght, there is about a ninety degree angle between them. The two other sides are also equal in lenght and the last one is slightly shorter than the two longest. It is somehow similar to the blade of a kunai except it is shaped like a pentagon.
"So I came from this thing, but where did it came from? And can I open it?"
"Believe it or not, this thing actually came from the sky. Mito, you came from the stars."
"Uhm, Tsunade-sama is it my turn to speak now?"
Both Tsunade and Mito looked at Shizune, sweatdropping.
"Sure Shizune, go ahead."
"Only if you have something important to say, nee-san."
"I do have something important to say! And more importantly, I have something to show you as well!"
Shizune's eyes, which used to be black orbs are now the color of blood. Three tomoes on each eye could be seen but it didn't stop there, the tomoes began twirling and it slowly morphed into seemingly random patterns until it was...back to normal again?
"Oh kami Shizune! You have the sharingan?! Are you an Uchiha?!"
"Yes and yes, but that's not important right now! Look what I have on the palm of my hand!"
So she just unsealed something like mom did, why did she have to show off her sharingan then?
"What is that Shizu-nee?"
"If I have to guess, I think it's some kind of key. We've been trying to get it inside of that other object to no avail. Maybe you'll be able to succeed where we fail, Mito."
Mito gently took the "key" from her sister's hand and suddenly she wasn't in her house anymore.
She was wondering where her mom, sister, and their house went when she heard someone coughing. It was to gain her attention. She turned around and saw herself. Or what she would look like when she gets older. The weird clothes her "old version" is wearing puzzled her though. And then her "self" spoke. She briefly wondered if this was what a monologue is like or something else entirely.
"Hello Kara."
Well, that's certainly unexpected.
"Kara?"
Mito asked, confused. She looked around, searching for this "Kara" person but she only found her self and her other self. Hmn, curious...
"Yes, Kara."
"Are you...you think I'm this "Kara"?"
"No, Kara. I don't think, I know you are."
"I'm sorry ma'am, whoever you are, but my name is Mito."
"Mito? Is that what the people who found you, named you? Regardless. Kara, Mito, or whatever name you wan to take. It doesn't matter. You are still Kara to me."
"Excuse me? Why do keep insisting that I am this "Kara" person?"
"Because you are. My sweet, sweet darling Kara, my precious baby girl. Look how you've grown."
"What did you just say? Wh-who are you?"
"My name is Alura Zor-el and I am your mother."
