Ok, so this is my first story so thanks for choosing it. I know there were a lot to choose from and all. When you are done could you do me a favor and tell me if you like it and if I should continue on. Thanks.
Pronunciation: Kana's name is pronounced with a long A as opposed to a short A. So it's like Kaaaana. Just wanted to clear that up for ya.

Dark brown hair that comes to about the middle of her back and kept in a ponytail......bangs that part to the side and frame her face......... eyelashes and eyes that are as dark as the depths of the ocean yet seem to glow in the dark....a slender yet beautiful face with a stern,strong look......and immense power that nobody could overcome yet no one knew about until now.....some call her "The most beautiful" and some said she was meant to be who she was. Those people, however, have quickly turned their heads away in disgust at the mere mention of her name after what her own village had labeled her.....TRAITOR....the day of her eighth birthday marked the end of a life as a ninja in her own village. Her life would never be the same...and she knew it. This is the story of the girl who was....the one that nobody remembers.....the one that nobody cares about.
Kana, the name the earth gave to her, simply appeared in the middle of the forest outside of the main gate to Konoha, The Village Hidden in the Leaves. She had no parents but was born from the energy of the sun,moon,stars,earth,and all five elements.
When accepting her in as a villager when she was not even a year old, the Hokage knew that this girl was special.
She was "The Chosen One". The one that had been born as the child of the earth itself. A child like this was only born after 1,000 years. Ever since the very first ninja,the strongest ever,children had been born every 1,000 years that had powers that seemed to never end. Their presence was meant to remind everyone of how strong the first ninja really was and that nobody could ever be better than him.
Amazed and yet horrified,the Hokage knew that this baby would grow to have the powers of all the elements and all the clans in his village. He pondered the idea of killing the child. There was no reason for her to live,there were plenty of ninjas that knew her meaning and after all, she would be extremely dangerous to the lives of his people if he let this girl live. In the end, he decided to let her live but he told nobody of who she was. When the girl turned ten, she would know. She would be aware of the power she had and maybe she wouldn't get a big head like the others. Well, he could only hope. So he thought it out and chose for her to not grow up in one village but stay with the Council and assign somebody to care for her as a mother. He made sure she had time to spend with each village and all the kida that would be her classmates someday.
However, the Hokage died while trying to seal away the Kyuubi and left Kana's life in the hands of the next Hokage. Kana spent time each day in each village but after awhile she was offered to live in the Uchiha village. At the time she was six years old and was the only girl her age in the whole village to not have a crush on Sasuke Uchiha. Each month she lived with a different family in the clan but she wasn't raised as one of them. She didn't gain the name Uchiha and nobody claimed her as their own. As much as people wanted to they couldn't because she belonged to all the clans and therefore had blood from all the clan Founders in Konoha. Including Madara.
She got along with Sasuke and during her stay with his family they often competed against each other in various competitions of skill,speed and intelligence. The adults knew who Kana was but the secret was kept from her and the children. She made everyone laugh and even Sasuke seemed to light up when she came home every day from school or from visiting other clans. By this time Kana was seven and a half and her time in the village was coming to an end. Nobody knew of what was going to happen when she was eight because nobody expected the clan to become a bloodbath.
Kana was known for her happy personality and cheery expressions. When she saw Sasuke unhappy, she told him straight up to smile for her. If that didn't work she would look at him in a serious way until he started to laugh. She liked to see her friends laugh. She liked to show Kiba that she could run on all fours faster than him and show Sakura how strong she was. She wasn't a showoff but when she was challenged to do something she would do it...if she could. She couldn't perform jutsu's like Chouji because she didn't have the chubby body required to perform his techniques even though his clan's blood flowed through her veins. None of the kids wondered how she could run like Kiba or be as smart as Shikamaru. They just went along with it. However, one child thought that her abilities were somewhat different to his. He knew she was different.
Neji, the young genius that wasn't nearly as cold as he is now, often observed Kana's abilities but he never asked about them because he knew it wasn't his place to question another's power when he was still a child.
The night before the massacre, Kana seemed worried and couldn't sleep. She stayed up until her worry passed and her eyes closed slowly just as the moon came out from behind the clouds. She dreams of blood. All around her she saw blood and heard screams. She was shaking and a cold hand was covering her mouth. She heard a snake hiss and a voice ask her if she was "ready to leave this pathetic village she calls home."
She woke with a start and saw the rays of the morning sun that entered through a window drape lazily over her blanket. A dream. More like a nightmare. A living hell.
On her way home from school the next day she saw Sasuke training. He was alone and seemed tired but instead of continuing home, Kana decided that staying couldn't hurt. She posted herself behind a big rock and watched Sasuke push himself to be the best. She knew of his dream to be like his brother. She admired his perseverance and courage. Kana felt at peace when she watched the young boy. She wondered if maybe she too was falling under the spell of Sasuke Uchiha....."The Cutest One".....She laughed to herself at the idea of it all.
The sun was setting and Kana figured that Sasuke would be heading home soon and he would expect to find her there. She didn't want him to know that she had spent her time watching his training. Obviously. So she quietly left the clearing and walked on until she was sure he couldn't hear her anymore and started to run. "Almost there", she told herself. She could see the gate....but she could hear the screams and soon enough she could see the blood. Kana stood right outside the clan's entrance gates and heard a woman scream. She trembled and could barely stand. Her nightmare,her living hell, had become all too real. Then she saw him. She saw the man she knew as Itachi but she couldn't speak. She couldn't cry or scream. She could only look into his eyes. Just as dark as hers but much more menacing, much more demeaning. He turned,and walked into his own home. She wanted so much to turn back and run until her legs gave out but she stayed still. She just couldn't bring herself to do anything, much less run. Oddly though, she heard a snake hissing and a hand came over her mouth. A voice asked her if she was ready and then, just as suddenly as she had appeared, Kana...was gone.
Shortly after the death of the Uchiha clan the Hokage decided that Kana was a traitor to the village. She had left the village to join Orochimaru and turned her back on the village. Every one that was considered an adult at the time was ordered to kill her if they ever saw her.
Now she stood..on a cliff overlooking the lands of the people that had rejected her. A thirteen year old girl that was alone now. She had the company of only Orochimaru and Kabuto. Occasionally a keeper of one Orochimaru's would show up but none of them really took interest in Kana. Orochimaru had told her who she was when she was eight and awakened her powers two years before they were to be shown. No attacks against Orochimaru or Kabuto worked and she decided not to run away and start a life in another village. Her reputation was known worldwide by now and there was no hope of ever starting a new life. She had grown to accept that and hoped that someday she could see him again. Sasuke that is. She knew how he had changed and she thought of how great it would be if her friends still thought of her sometimes.
So that's where she had been left. Itachi had asked Orochimaru to take her from the village and she stayed with the Akatsuki for some time until Orochimaru left the organization. She had never seen Itachi but Konan had taken care of her until she was forced to leave. Kana had grown quite cold as well,just like Sasuke but somewhere deep inside her she still liked to see the faces of people light up and glow. So the young beauty wondered why this was happening. But more importantly...what was GOING to happen. Little did she know that she would soon get news that her friend was coming to join her. Some of her friends couldn't believe she had grown apart from the village but if that's what the Hokage said she was then that was it. Kana was dangerous. She was cold and unfriendly. She was the keeper of immense power.
