PreFace
Cold air swirled around my body burning what little skin was showing. My toes and fingers were numb, but also on fire, for the blood vessels narrowed restricting blood flow as my body decided I no longer needed them. They were no longer important.
My lungs burnt with every breath of cold, unwelcoming oxygen.
Eyes the color of deep mahogany searched for civilization, but there was none. Only the rocky mountainous and snowy landscape. Hugging my jacket closer to my chubby frame I waited for the one I was never supposed to meet to show himself. Hearing snow crunching behind me I whipped around only to lock eyes with my fate. This was why I was here, after all, to save what was most precious to me by sacrificing myself. Stupid, but somewhat reasonable.
"So you came after all . . . interesting." He grinned at me with his laughter filling my ears, only five feet apart I could smell the pungent scent of alcohol on his breath. I swallowed the lump of fear in my throat ignoring the intense reactions to run. This was for a good reason, I had to be strong.
His footsteps were slow, predatory. My heartbeat slammed against my chest with such ferocity that I was sure even he could hear it. It created a drumming beat to which he marched to perfectly, time was slow now. Every movement he made, between the two of us, everythibg was slowed down. I could hardly breathe as he finally reached me the pleasure in his eyes of killing me, and hurting another poor innocent soul without having to lay a finger on that person in the process. Causing them grief, and aggoby beyond what he could ever possibly do.
"This will all be over quickly." He mused obviously excited by this little game of his while I wished it would end. My heartbeat resounded in my ears as my mind raced frantically.
"You'll keep your promise?" I gasped out practically begging. He gave a curt nod. "I am a man of my word, Mrs. Miyamoto." I nodded and closed my eyes tight, bracing myself for what would certainly be the fates cutting my own sting of life, my red string of fate.
He took his time though, pacing around his prey. Toying with me.
The Angel of Death then swooped down to claim yet another soul, one who went willingly. But it missed. My eyes snapped open as I saw something I never wanted to see, both terror and joy filling my body.
This is going to be a novel and will be written like one!
I AM ANTI-MARY SUE/GARY STEW!
This story is not your usual "Akatsuki meet High School students" or "Akatsuki cat" story, as it has large doses of reality in it. Meaning that this is not like fanfictions where random things happen all the time. A lot of thought is put into the story and each chapter.
My vocabulary will be increasing greatly throughout the story and I will have the definitions of words at the bottom of each chapter or the top. You will be very surprised as to how the Akatsuki are pulled into our world and I am sure you will enjoy it! This is going to be a novel and will be written like one!
This story will contain killing, suggestive and dark themes, eventual romance. These themes will be maintained to a degree, some will drop, some will rise. This is a story about being able to grow, going from needing someone to being able to stand on your own two feet, going from being able to stand alone to needing support, recovery, learning to live, love and be loved. Learning who deserves you.
I will let you know that the Akatsuki will not be coming into the game until about Chapter 3, just so I can get the ball rolling with the characters in Chapter 1 and 2. Let you get to know them a bit more and about their personal lives before we get to the sweet, juiciness that is Ninjas! This story will be a novel and will be written like one, not the half way done stories that are popped off the top of my head. I already have the whole plotline filled out!
I only own my OC's. The Akatsuki members belong to Kishimoto. The OC's are average, and have imperfections, including physical ones, just like you and me. That way, you will be able to easily step into their shoes.
Genre: Romance, Drama, Mystery, Suspense, Action, Supernatural (Akatsuki), Family, Dark and subjective themes as well as Light themes. Warning! Foul language (especially for Hidan).
Thank you for reading this first chapter of many to come!
