The Tales of Konoha's Weapon Master
Prologue:
Twelve years ago, during the warm month of June, a baby boy is being born in the Konoha hospital. This boy is being born unto Ishibo and Yanura Mosso. The Mosso Cllan is known for their proficiency in weaponry in and outside of the walls of Konoha. The child is also the cousin of Tenten Mosso, a kunoichi five years older than him. The proud father and mother have just been informed that their child is healthy; however, Yanura has lost much blood, and will die in a matter of minutes.
"Ishibo, get me our son. I would like to see him one last time." Ishibo nodded with tears in his eyes as he walked over to the medical ninja who was holding the child. The ninja saw the pain in Ishibo's eyes as he handed over the new-born to him. He gave him a look of sympathy but knew that it did nothing to ease his pain. The father handed the small child to Yanura.
"What do you want to name him?" Ishibo asked her.
"I think Tanner would be a fitting name."
Ishibo nodded his agreement. He wasn't going to argue with her. He saw that it was fitting that she picked out the name of their child, since she was the one losing her life. For the next few minutes, the trio never moved and never spoke. Having the child was like a double edged sword: Ishibo was gaining a son but losing his lover.
"Tanner, Ishibo, I will always love you. Never forget that. I hope I will see you again sometime!" Yanura spoke her last words. Ishibo silently wept as he watched his wife become still and saw the life slip from her eyes. Tanner seemed to sense that something was wrong too, for he started bawling for the first time.
