My Nindo Way, Shannaro!
Chapter 1. An Ugly Duckling
Every year on March twenty eight, has been the happiest day for my mother. Why do you ask? It's because I've been born. Released close to twenty four hours into labor from within my mother's compact womb. Of course I had been blessed with a loud voice upon grasping my few moments of air. Either way, she loved me the moment my body cuddled up against her exhausted body.
However, as the years go by, I couldn't love myself. These hideously green pupils, large obnoxious forehead, and that ridiculously pink color palette laying atop my head. I cannot force my self to believe that I'm pretty.
We all have faults.
Now these of course are mine.
"Perhaps one day, you'll grow into it."she would say occasionally.
I'll respond with a, "When will that be?"
Then she'll laugh and suddenly all of humanity is lost. Randomly the conversation will shift into something weird.
Except I'm okay with that. At least she's the only person that can see my outer beauty, including what's on the inside.
Isn't that what matters? To a certain extent though. People can be so shallow.
I wish that some people weren't like that. Sadly, in the ninja villages, they look for quality in the family, but not quantity. Yeah, it's not good. One time, I even ran up to one of the higher villager status people and asked, "Can you adopt me?"
Don't bust a gut over that. I was such a naive silly child back then.
Of course they laughed at me. Sadly, it wasn't with me. Oh well. What's done is done. I'm sure that they forgot about it by now.
...However, that moment is just a single fragment of my memories. Some villagers who were lucky enough to interact with me possibly share the same idea.
The same goals as well. I have one. Well, practically everyone does. Mine is to become a kunoichi of Konoha! It won't matter if I did not harbor any special tricks or a kekkei genkai. Discrimination isn't in my forte. In fact, this might be my only shot on proving that us normal people are just as good as everybody else. Yet, those who are blind to what lies within are the most stubborn.
I will try not to spew hostility when teamed up with the others.
After all, that would make me just as ugly as them. Mostly because, I already feel that I'm the most horrifying at a whole different level.
A/N: I apologize for making this so short. It just popped in my brain so early! XD Obviously, this introduction didn't need any thing flashy. Now then, except a chapter soon! Which will of course be longer then this.
