Chapter 1
Two a.m and the whole leaf village is quiet. The guards on duty are ready to fall asleep. The entire village is at peace.
Yawning one of the guards turns to look at the gate. Suddenly, he feels a strange chakra coming from the other side. He turns to the second guard ,who had fallen asleep minutes before, and nudges him awake
"W-what? What...is it...?" The second guard starts to feel the chakra as well.
"What do you think we should do? Should we go and tell the Hokage?"
"No. One of us should stay, in case who ever is out there tries to get in."
The second nodded, "I'll stay. You go get the Hokage. Quickly now!"
With that said, guard number two took off to the home of the Hokage.
As soon as he left the first guard went over the gate to investigate. He sat on top waiting, but when nothing happened, he ventured down, and what he saw shocked him.
There in front of the gates was a woman and a child. The woman looked to be quite young, twenty-six at the oldest. She had pale eyes, that kind of reminded the guard of someone. Her hair was long and dark, and was very messy. Her clothes had been all torn up, torn so much you could see her underwear. Her porcelain skin was covered in cuts and bruises, with one particularly large gash that went down her leg. The woman's stomach was large as if she were pregnant.
The boy beside her, who looked no older than three or four, had her same dark hair, though shorter. His eyes looked very menacing, like those of a shark had been put on to a boy. They were little larger than a fishes eye, but were sunken in, a black eyelid over top. His pupil was small, but not as small as his iris. The guard couldn't make out the colour. The boy was also covered in injuries. Both of them looked as if they had just escaped from a horrible battle.
The guard decided to confront them, and see what they were doing there. He approached very carefully, in case this was all a ruse to get in the village. When he was sure they were all alone, he addressed the woman,
"Stop! What business have you here?"
The woman slowly stood up a little straighter, and looked the man in the eyes.
"Please sir, my son and I have just recently lost our home, and his father. We barely managed to escape. Please have a doctor look at my son." The woman looked so heartbroken, it tore the young guard up inside.
He was just about to answer her pleads when the gate behind him opened up. There stood the Hokage, and his wife. They looked as if they jumped out of bed and through on whatever was lying around. (Which is precisely what they did.)
The young couple came closer, and there eyes grew wide.
"It can't be..." Whispered the wife.
"It is..." Her husband responded, "...Hinata..."
