1"We did it. We've captured the four tailed beast", said Itachi.
"Good work. Only three remain. Itachi and Kisame, I'm putting you in charge of the Nine-Tailed beast. Deidara and Sasori, I'm sending you two after the One-Tailed beast.", ordered Pain.
"What about the last one? Six-Tails?", asked Deidara.
"We've looked everywhere possible..." , said Pain, "That one.....has seemed to...vanish." And with that, they left the cave.
I put on my brand new forehead protector. I was so glad to finally be a ninja. Today was my first day, and I was getting assigned my squad, my lifelong companions, and, hopefully, some good friends. I've never really had true friends. I mean, I've had friends. Backstabbing ones though.
I quickly ran out the door too excited to say my goodbyes. "Kirai!", my mother yells, "wait!"
"What do you want Mom?"
"I have something for you! A gift!"
A gift? I love getting gifts! I ran right back to receive what she had for me.
"Look what I've got", she said. She held up a small, silver necklace with a heart charm at the end . She handed the necklace to me. I put it on. I was very small. Only a few inches away from chocking me.
"This necklace is very special", she told me, "There's only one in the world. It was handcrafted by your great grandfather. It's also brought me amazingly good fortune."
"Uh, Mom", I said "I'm gonna be late. I have 5minutes to get to school"
"Oh dear!" she said, "You better run!"
I ran off like a speeding bullet (once again, forgetting to say goodbye). I was exited, but at the same time frightened. What would lie ahead of me? Would I be accepted? Most importantly, would they see me as a human, or would I only be known as "The Six-Tailed Beast. Ikari Ookami".
