Hello. This is my first ninja-based fanfic. The concepts, weapons and skills are mostly based on 'Naruto'. Of course, I will also be taking some ideas from somewhere else like other anime series and RPG games. I hope you all will like my story. Please give reviews and advice after reading them.

Summary: Kira is a ninja, and so are others like Athrun, Cagalli, Shinn, Mu, Rau and many characters more. Kira was assigned to be the bodyguard of Princess Lacus Clyne, who is targeted by many. As Kira protects the 'Pink Princess', he discovered that he too had become a target, due to his ancestors, his past, and a legendary summon scroll……

Author's note: Okay, I think I must have sucked in the summary. Readers, please forgive me. Before I begin the story, I think I have to explain something first. In this story, although I've mentioned that this is a ninja-based story, there will still be the appearances of the Gundams like Freedom, Strike, Ginns…… Wait! Before any of you start thinking, 'What the heck are mecha weapons doing in a ninja-based fanfic?', allow me to explain that there will not appear as machines, but as beings that are summoned by ninjas. (You know, like Naruto summons Gamabunta) Think of them as talking (yes, they can talk too, like Gamabunta, Enma and Katsuya) armoured giants equipped with strange, out-of-this-world weapons. Thank you.

Chapter 1

Kira Yamato stood motionlessly in the middle of the forest. "Byakugan (white eyes)," he whispered. Then he smeared some chicken blood around him.

'Shinn, I hope you are ready,' Kira thought.

Seconds later, he smelt something. His hands quietly slipped into his robes. Soon enough, a gigantic spider pounced towards him from behind without making a single sound. But thanks to Kira's "Byakugan" that enables him to see within 360 degrees around him, Kira immediately jumped upwards to evade. Then he threw the several exploding tags at the spider. The tags stuck themselves onto the spider and exploded. BOOM!

The spider felled back and howled in pain. It spat out its webbing, trying to tie Kira up. Kira quickly pulled out his two katana that he placed on his back and slashed at the web. He then threw a shuriken and shouted "Shuriken Kage Bunshin No Jutsu!(Shuriken Shadow Clone!)" The shuriken suddenly multiplied itself into many other shurikens and cut off the spider's legs. Kira then threw several exploding tags again. This time, the attack caused the spider to turn over, which is exactly what Kira wanted.

"Now Shinn!" Kira cried.

In an instant, Shinn jumped out of nowhere with a ruby-red tipped spear in his hands. He sank the spear into the spider's soft abdomen and shouted, "Fire Spin!" A flaming whirlwind formed at the spot where the spear's tip struck. The flames engulfed the spider. The spider's shrieks of pain reduced as it was slowly burnt to ashes. About 5 minutes later, they was nothing left of the spider except for a pile of black ashes.

"Well, I was expecting more challenging monsters," Shinn said smilingly as he put out the fire.

"You really like to fight, don't you? Come on, let's head back and tell the village headman that we accomplished our task," Kira said as he kept his katana.

When the village headman who hired them heard what they have done, he practically jumped up and down in joy. "Men! Spread this good news to the villagers! The spider is vanquished! Tell them to prepare a huge banquet for our two young heroes!"

After his men left, the headman took out two sacks of gold coins and gave one each to Kira and Shinn. "As promised, one sack of gold to whoever succeeds in killing that monster,' he said. "It's a good thing you two ninjas came. That evil thing has been terrorizing us for 5 months!"

"Thank you sir. We are just doing our job," Kira said.

At night, a sumptuous feast was prepared. The villagers dine, wine, sing and dance all night. Shinn joined them while Kira sat by the fire with the children, telling them stories about his adventures. At midnight, they decided to return. The villagers bid them goodbye and gave them two horses for their journey.

As they rode slowly, Kira took out a note and gave it to Tori, his pet and also messenger bird. "I told Master Mu that we'll be back at Onogoro village in 2 days time," he said to Shinn.

"That long? Man, I missed the food there," Shinn said.

"Then what about a treat from you when we get back? We could have ramen," Kira suggested.

"Ramen again? Don't you get bored with that stuff? Now that we just earned some money, I'm thinking of the fancy restaurant in the middle of the village," Shinn told him.

Kira startled at the mentioning of that place. "Uh, you mean the place that's near…"

"Come on Kira, just because she lives near that area, doesn't mean you can't go there. You can always beat up the goons," Shinn said.

"Whatever. If you insist on going there, then keep me out of earshot. I am not afraid of the thugs, but the girl herself…"

Author's Note : Short, I know. This is because I wrote it in a limited time. Sorry about that. The next chapter will be posted at 4th September, due to an exam I'm having. I promise it will be longer. Thank you.
