Chapter 1 – Kunoichi
Once upon a time there was 4 Goddess without the knowing that there was 5th as well, who were ninjas for the time being and didn't know they were Goddess' until something magical and mysterious happened...
Normal POV
4 Best friends, who graduated from the Academy 5 months earlier and were introduced to their team along with spending some time with them and going on missions with them, are now sitting at the top of the Hokage monument watching the sunset disappear into the horizon. The sky now is pink, orange, purple and dark blue due to near night time and it's quiet breezy but it's still warm. The 4 best friends met each other at the age of 5 at the park. These best friends were Sakura Haruno, Ino Yamanaka, Hinata Hyuga and Tenten.
"Konohagakure looks so peaceful" Tenten mused watching as the lights turned on at the streets.
"I know and it always clears my mind" Ino said looking down to the Academy.
"It always calms me down when I get too over emotional" Sakura said peacefully looking at the sunset and birds that flew in front of it.
"I know it always makes me wonder what the next day would be like" Hinata said in a quiet tone. She grew out of stuttering after spending some time with the girls and they showed her how to be confident.
"Ne, what do you think of your team?" Ino asked the other giving them a side glance than went back to watching the Academy.
"Lee and Guy-sensei always say youth in like every sentence and Neji... he talks about destiny the whole time like 'It's your destiny to do this' and 'It's your destiny to do that' seriously!" Tenten said and making her voice like a chipmunk when she talks about destiny.
"Kiba-kun is nice and kind with me and Shino-kun is really quiet and mysterious. Kurenai-sensei is at least interested in my abilities and she is like my mother" Hinata said having a soft smile on her face.
"Shika is always lazy just lying there and watching the clouds and he keeps saying troublesome. Choji never stops eating and is really kind to me.….like a brother I never had. Asuma-sensei is smoking all the time and I never saw him not smoking. And to add to that I know he has a crush on Kurenai-sensei!" Ino said grinning widely.
"Kakashi-sensei is pervert and reads this book called 'Icha Icha' plus he didn't tell us anything about himself except his name. Naruto-baka is too loud and keeps talking about him going to be Hokage one day and ramen. Sasuke-kun is quiet and always say 'hn' and he talks to Naruto-baka mostly because he is his best friend. He barely acknowledges me. I'm like the 4th wheel here already on the fifth month." Sakura replied sadly and let a lonely tear escape her left eye.
Tenten being next to her noticed this and said "Don't worry Kura. If you feel like a 4th wheel there then don't feel like that with us because you are involved in our group. We all trust you and tell you everything. Every embarrassing moments and every little secret we have. Even our crushes! So don't feel sad okay?" She put an arm around Sakura's shoulder.
"I am already considered weak by my team. So are Ino and Hinata"
Ino and Hinata smiled at Sakura kindly to make her feel better and it worked really much when she smiled a tiny smile but it was still a smile. Sakura giggled.
"What's so funny Billboard Brow?" Ino asked confused
"Why don't we name our group so we would be known, ne?" Sakura replied giving a wide grin
"That's a good idea Saku!" Hinata said, her eyes filled with happiness.
All of them went into a thinking face and came up with various names.
"How about Hikari?" Hinata asked, looking at the sunset
"Um...maybe let's get more ideas first" Tenten said
"Maybe... Flower Girls?" Ino asked and they all looked at her weirdly
"Ne, maybe just a simple name would be fine. Like... Kunoichi?" Sakura said having a soft smile on her face
All of them stopped thinking then and looked at Sakura slowly with a blank face then..
3...
2...
1...
They all broke into a wide grin and said loudly
"HAI"
"Maybe we can add that to our outfit to show others that we are a group because we aren't seen together lately." Hinata stated a matter-of-factly
"Let's go. The clothes don't make their selves" Ino broke through the silence
They all nodded their heads with big smiles and took off.
They were discussing their thoughts about their new idea at their own house they bought when they were younger. All of them lived together around Central Konoha and Sakura asked Hiashi to get permission for Hinata to live with them. If you call saying death threats, scaring the family with the shadows and showing Inner Sakura talking her mind asking.
"I got no training tomorrow. Kakashi-sensei is training the boys." Sakura said sadly while tears gathered in her Emerald Green eyes but she forced them back by a hard blink.
"Same" Tenten said, disappointment flashing in her Chocolate Brown orbs but disappeared just as quickly.
"Ditto" Ino replied, hurt showing clearly in her Baby Blue ones.
"Me too" Hinata agreed while betrayal can be seen in her Pearly White orbs.
"No time mourning for the boys. They will meet the new Sakura, Ino, Hinata and Tenten in a few days time" Sakura said while smirking evilly but then turned innocent again.
Tenten smirked back. Ino flashed a smile and Hinata's eyes had an evil glint in them before they too, turned back into complete angels once again.
"Okay what colours do we all like"
"I personally like Purple, Blue, Red, Peach and Green" Sakura said while staring at the ceiling of their living room.
"I like Blue, Purple, Peach and Yellow" Tenten said while she was going around looking for the make-up.
"I like Blue, Cream and Peach" Hinata said, twiddling her fingers in a shy way
"I like Purple, Peach and Blue" Ino said while fiddling with her elbow warmers.
"Okay so the colours we all like are Blue and Peach" Sakura answered while going for the nail polish.
"Yes. Now let's look for the necessaries" With that said, they all went to look for anything with blue and peach colour.
Sakura found Baby Blue, Dark Blue, Ocean Blue and Baby Pink (that some people mistake it for peach) nail polish.
Ino found some Baby Blue coloured decorative jewels.
Hinata found Peach coloured fabric with Baby Blue swirls pattern.
Tenten found black eye liner and Peach coloured bandages.
"Okay so we can paint our nails, put on some decorative jewels, eye liner, bandages and a new headband" Ino concluded while the others nodded and looked at their collectives.
'If we found all these... there is no telling that we have any more colours around here'
"Does every one of you have anything Light Blue?" Sakura asked them all
"Hai" They all answered while nodding
"We all have the same training outfits in that colour" Hinata spoke without the stutter. She only stuttered around the boys but not with the girls who are actually her Half-Sisters.
"Good. We'll show them who's the boss. We are starting training tomorrow morning" Tenten said with confidence
The others nodded, bid good night and went to sleep.
Morning
CRACK!
THUNK!
THUNK!
More than 50 trees were either cut, fallen or destroyed, a huge crack in the ground and moving shadows were displayed.
Nobody knew, but Sakura was blessed with the power of controlling shadows as if they were her own arms and legs. Just one command in the brain and the shadows do what Sakura wants them to do.
Tenten was blessed to be able to talk to nature. This is a good thing for she can speak to them and find anything and anyone anywhere there are plants and trees.
Hinata can turn into either water or air, which gives her the advantage to sneak onto her opponents.
Ino, with her clan's 'Mind Switching Technique', developed this jutsu even more so now she actually stay conscious but her mind goes into her opponent's and makes them confused and unfocused.
With her hands in the tiger seal, Sakura cried out "Katon: Onidōrō" Several circles appeared around her as fireballs with the shape of a demon floated with ease and then they all aimed at Tenten.
Tenten had different plans however and instead said in a quiet whisper "Suiton: Seiryūshō" A big blast of water irrupted from her palm and headed straight for the approaching demon lanterns.
Some demons escaped and went straight towards the trees, which were set on fire at once they touched.
Sakura sighed while bowing her head.
'Not good enough. NEVER good enough'
Ino rushed towards Hinata and just before she got 2 feet near Hinata, she disappeared into purple petals. She then appears behind Hinata and throws an explosive tag at her. Hinata, having already her Byakugan activated saw it coming, but then she whispered "Kaiten" and spun around while a blue chakra shield appeared around her and it threw the useless explosive tag away.
'Kekkei Genkai is so useful for some people'
"GIRLS!" An urgent woman's voice, which they recognised as Shizune's, screamed out.
"You were summoned for the Hokage's Tower immediately."
With that said, they ran out of the forest, down the streets and along the familiar path that goes to the Hokage's Tower.
KNOCK KNOCK
Sakura pushed the door open after hearing the firm "Come In" and went into the room with Ino, Hinata and Tenten trailing after her. They bowed deeply "Tsunade-sama"
The woman before them knew how their team treated them and she has done everything to make it work better, but the boys were just stubborn as a donkey and the information that their female counterpart is suffering doesn't get into their heads.
"I tried all the ideas I had with the boys but they just can't get the message. So I sent them all on a 3 year long mission. When they come back they will see how much you lot have grown" Tsunade said proudly
She has seen them train before and was quiet impressed so she took them under her wing. She taught Sakura how to be a medical ninja, Tenten how to summon the weapons, Hinata how to develop a new jutsu with the Byakugan and taught Ino how to stay conscious throughout her clan's technique.
They were like the perfect daughters she never had.
"Here, I have something to give to you" Tsunade then proceeded to reach into her top draw, where she got out an old wooden box of what seemed like Cherry Wood and gently smoothed her hand down the dusty surface. She then opened it to reveal 5 golden chains attached to the top while 5 pendants rested on a golden cushion. The sunlight hit the pendants and it created a rainbow effect.
"These pendants belonged to the past Goddess of Fire, Water, Earth, Wind and Light. Pele was the Goddess of Fire, Tethys was the Goddess of the Sea, Gaia was the Goddess of Earth, Zephyr was the Goddess of Wind and Theia was the Goddess of Light. This all they have left behind for the next generation. Which is you" At the last sentence, the girls thought that all the air was sucked out of their bodies. Next Generation... Next Generation... Next Generation... was all their mind could think of.
"So.. We are the new Goddesses?" Ino asked breathlessly
Tsunade just nodded her head with a smile.
"Wow" "Uh, Ok?" "Good God" "Never thought so" Tenten whispered, Hinata squeaked, Sakura breathed and Ino said in union.
Tsunade smirked. "Sakura, step up for me" Sakura walked over to Tsunade while the latter took a golden chain and attached the big Fire Flame shaped Garnet pendant. She then gently clipped it around Sakura's neck. Sakura bowed and wordlessly lined back up between Tenten and Ino, who admired the necklace.
"Hinata"
Hinata stepped up while Tsunade got the second chain out and the big Droplet shaped Azure pendant. She attached the two and clipped it on Hinata's neck. Hinata bowed and moved next to Tenten.
"Ino"
Ino moved to stand in front of the Hokage. Tsunade got the third golden chain out and the star shaped Citrine pendant. She attached them and clipped it around Ino's neck. Ino admired the stone while she bowed and moved to stand next to Sakura.
"And Tenten"
Tsunade got the second last golden chain out with a maple leaf shaped Emerald pendant. She clipped them around Tenten's neck while the latter bowed and went to stand between Hinata and Sakura.
The pendants reached just below the each girl's breasts while the chain travelled down between the twin mounds. Because the pendants were bid, they had weight and it outlined the shape of their chests.
"The stones on the pendants hold the powers of the elements it represent and you must protect it. It should never fall into the wrong hands. If they do, the whole world could be wiped out in 10 seconds flat" Tsunade spoke.
"Um, Tsunade-sama?" Hinata meekly asked
"Hm?"
"Why are there 5 pendants instead of 4?"
Tsunade smirked and got a map of the 5 Great Nations out from her draw. She spread it out while she pointed to the country that said 'Wind Country'
"There is a girl in Sunagakure that is the last Goddess. The Goddess of Wind. Currently she is being talked to back in the desert and by now she would be expecting you"
"Just a guess, Is it Temari?" Tenten asked eagerly
"Yes it is her"
Sakura and Tenten squealed, Hinata smiled widely while Ino was just grumpy. She didn't like Temari that much since she introduced Shikamaru to her.
"You mission is supposed to be a D-Rank but because you are going unprotected and with a great power, it will be changed into a B-Rank. You are to escort Temari here safe and sound." Tsunade explained while looking at each of the girls "Sakura, I entrust you to take this box with the last pendant and keep it safe. Tenten, you are the leader of this mission, Understood?" Everyone nodded as Sakura tucked the box out of Tsunade's outstretched hands.
"That is all. Dismissed"
They went home and into their separate rooms.
Since this whole thing of the 'team ignorance' they changed their clothing styles. Sakura and Tenten wore the Baby Pink nail polish, while Ino and Hinata wore the Baby Blue one. The clothes they wore before if they are not Peach or Blue, they burned it.
The outfits from before had different colours so they changed it.
Sakura's dress style remained the same, but it was now a Light Pink. Her shorts remained the same black, they all agreed that black would be accepted, and her ninja sandals were the same. Her hair, instead of having it loose, she tied it up into a high ponytail and it was being held up with a Baby Blue ribbon also she cut her long bangs until they only went down to her eyes. Her forehead protector remained the Dark Blue it usually was but it was now kept on her forehead.
Ino's outfit went from Purple to Baby Blue. The bandages became Peach coloured and her ninja sandals were the same blue. Her hair was still up in that high ponytail but she had the Baby Blue ribbon holding it back. Her bangs were cut to only go down to her forehead with a little curl. Her forehead protector was around her forehead as well.
Tenten's shirt remained the same, being Peach or Light Pink coloured, and her pants became black. Her ninja sandals were the same blue and so was her forehead protector which she still kept around her forehead. Her twin buns on her head were tied back with a Light Pink ribbon.
Hinata's jacket became Baby Blue while her pants were black. Her ninja sandals were the same blue as well. Her forehead protector was now on her forehead while her bangs were pulled back with a Baby Blue silk headband.
Black stars were drawn under their eyes. On the back of their shirts, they all wore a Black 'K' letter with a yellow sun behind it and the leaf sign on the sun rays.
Sakura was the one to be done first, so she went outside and waited for the others to get ready. 2 minutes later Tenten and Hinata came out from the door and now they were only waiting for Ino to come out. She did come out, 10 minutes later. They all looked at her with annoyed expressions but Ino just blinked at them innocently. Tenten sighed and started going on the familiar streets which led to the Village Entrance. Sakura followed suit with Hinata and Ino hot on her heels.
"Ne I think someone will get pretty happy when we get to Suna!" Ino chirped
Sakura, Tenten and Hinata looked at her. Ino just grinned like Cheshire Cat pointedly towards Sakura. Hinata and Tenten caught on pretty quickly and they grinned at Sakura just as much.
"What?"
"Gaara is so going to squeeze you alive in a hug!" Tenten giggled into her hand
Sakura blushed but managed to put on an bored expression. "So what?"
The 3 just looked innocent and continued on towards the gates. Sakura sighed and followed short after.
At the gates, Sakura saw how much shadow it creates and suddenly got an idea. "Hey, instead of running why don't we fly?"
Ino, Hinata and Tenten looked at her as if she was crazy but Sakura just smirked and pointed a finger at the shadows. It moved and became 2 large birds. When they were standing, they were as tall as the girls. The rest of the girls stared at them in awe.
"Come on! Temari is waiting!" Sakura then jumped onto one of the birds and straddled it. Hinata came up and climbed behind her, her arms holding Sakura's waist. Tenten immediately ran to the other one and sat on it. Ino went behind her and attached her arms around Tenten's waist.
"Ready?" Tenten asked everyone
"Hai"
The two birds gave a screeching sound and with one flap of it's wings, it took off into the clear blue sky.
