The Rise Of Kagura
Chapter One
'Disgusting' where the thoughts of a girl perched on top of the Hokage Monuments has she overlooked the village of Konoha. She was a young 13-year-old beautiful girl who stood at a height of 5'4" with crimson blood-red hair that fell slightly past her lower back in a braid. She wore a black mesh shirt that clung to her body and brought attention to her still developing C-Cup chest. Over this, she wore a blood-red sleeveless coat and an armored corset made of black adamant. She wore black skin-tight Kevlar pants and combat boots. On her hands, she wore blood-red Kevlar fingerless gloves and on her forearms and shins, she had black adamant armor.
Her skin was a slight pale white with sharp soul piercing heterochromatic eyes. Her left eye a blood-red and the right a dark amethyst. Strapped on her corset behind her on her lower back is a 45" double-edged black adamant katana, with the bottom edge serrated (a gift from her 'true' mother). Her name was Uzumaki Kagura or the Kyuubi brat as the people of Konoha call her.
You see, thirteen years ago the Kyuubi no Yoko after it was released from its jinchuuriki Uzumaki Kushina; Kagura's 'mother' started attacking the village of Konoha. It rampaged throughout the area destroying much and killing many until the Forth Hokage Namikaze Minato confronted it and sealed it into Kagura his newborn daughter dying in the process. After this, the then retired Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen retakes the office and decides to announce Kagura's status and proclaim her a hero. The 'good' citizens of Konoha did not see it that way. They saw Kagura as the Kyuubi reborn and demanded that she be killed. What they do not know is that Kagura is something far worse than the Kyuubi and far more powerful.
While many people have forgotten the true origin of chakra and how it came to be there are some that do know the tale but only has a myth. A mythical man known has 'The Sage of Six Paths', the founder of ninshu who defeated the great Ten-Tails Shinju and gave chakra to the world. Fewer know his real name as Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo and even fewer still know about his mother Princess Kaguya. Therefore, it is not that surprising that next to no one would know about Kaguya's eldest and favored child, her daughter Ōtsutsuki Kagura. Kagura shared her mothers' philosophy on the world and on peace. True peace can only be made possible through forced unity and suppression.
Humans were simply to dangerous and chaotic. They need to be controlled at all times and need someone to hold their leash constantly otherwise they will just create untold amounts of destruction. Her little brother did not see it that way and for some strange reason believed that humans were capable of great things and that true peace can only be achieved through understanding. Kagura honestly believing her brother to be touched in the head and a clear danger to himself and others asked her mother for permission to kill him. Kaguya refused stating that she already had a plan for Hagoromo and his brother Hamura. Kaguya however acknowledged that her sons have grown powerful decided it was necessary to make a contingency plan just in case in the form of a Black Zetsu that would be the manifestation of her will. Kaguya had also created a powerful reincarnation jutsu that she gave to her daughter Kagura to use every one hundred years until Zetsu had manipulated events to allow her resurrection. Kaguya was unsure how powerful the humans would be by the time she revived or how much resistance they will put up. Kaguya wanted someone by her side to help who was not only powerful but also someone she could trust completely and there is no one she trusts more than her beloved daughter Kagura.
'Humans are such disgusting things. Ruled by their greed envy and lust they crawl around in the dirt acting all self-important. They do not even realize how truly insignificant they really are.' Kagura thought as she watched them scurry around like the ants she believed them to be. Despite these thoughts Kagura does not hate humans in fact she pities them. They waste their lives fighting and killing each other for the most asinine of reasons, some of them just roam around looking for some greater purpose or meaning to their existence.
'There is no great meaning or purpose, you exist because you do. You exist because all the right elements gathered in all right places in just the right way.' Kagura thought to her self. She looks up at the spot were the sun is and sees that it was half past 8:00.
"Looks like I'll be a little late to the academy, not that I actually care." Kagura quickly jumps to her feet and leaps off the Hokage Faces, leisurely making her way to the academy.
At the Academy
Umino Iruka was currently standing in front of the class waiting and has been waiting for the last hour for Kagura to arrive in order to start the exams. "Where is she, she should have been hear an hour ago?"
"Just fail her Iruka sensei. If the dobe is too dumb to show up at the right time then she doesn't deserve to be a ninja." Said Uchiha Sasuke, a dark male youth with hair shaped like a ducks hind quarters.
"Yea! That stupid dead-last probably won't even pass." Shrieked Haruno Sakura, a fan-girl with long cherry pink hair and a wide forehead. Several similar protests were heard throughout the class by students that were tired of waiting.
'Sigh' "Alright, I will give Kagura five more minutes to get hear. If she does not get hear in that time then Karg-" Iruka was interrupted by the sound of the door opening. In walked Uzumaki Kagura in all her impassive glory.
"Sorry I'm late." She said in a tone that clearly said she could care less.
"Kagura, why are you so late to class today!? Are you not aware that today is the graduation exam?" Iruka shouted at her in an failed effort to make her repentant.
"I wanted to watch the sun rise." Kagura stated not even looking at Iruka as she walked to the nearest open seat.
"Watching it caused me to think about my life and where its headed and I must of gotten lost in my thoughts."
'Kagura' Iruka thought sadly has he looked at her.
"Plus I was thinking which of us would be the first to die on their first C-rank mission." Several people flinched at the coldness at which she said that.
"My monies on Hauno. She is the most useless one hear" Kagura stated has sent a cold and cruel smirk Sakura's way that just said 'I hope it's you'.
"KAGURA! THAT'S A HORRIBLE THING TO SAY ABOUT A COMRADE" Iruka yelled at the unrepentant Uzumaki.
"THAT'S RIGHT! I WON'T DIE, SASUKE KUN WILL PROTECT ME!"
"HAHAHAHAHAHA!" The laugh that Kagura broke out in sent a uncomfortable chill down everyone's back.
"It's because you actually belive that Haruno that you will be the first to die."
"WHAT WA-" "THAT'S ENOUGH!" Iruka shouted cutting of Sakura.
"Everyone be quite and take your seats. We will be starting the graduation exam."
The first part of the exam consisted of a multiple choice question test. Kagura just did enough to barely pass not really caring about the exam. 'Besides the less attention I draw to myself the easier it will be to accomplish my goal.' She thought as she handed in her test. The taijutsu test and weapons test went much the same way. It finally came to the last part of the exam the ninjutsu test. One by one the Genin hopefuls are taken into a back room and evaluated on their ability to perform the 'kawarimi' 'henge' and the 'bunshin'. Of the 48 students that whent in only 32 came out with a hitai-ate.
"Uzumaki Kagura" Iruka called. It was finally Kagura's turn.
As Kagura walked into the room she immediately and discreetly put Mizuki into a paralysis jutsu.
'What the hell! Why can't I move!?' Out of the corner of his eye Mizuki can see Kagura flash a quick smirk his way.
'DAMN THAT KYUUBI BRAT! SHE'S COMPLETELY RUINING MY PLANS! HOW THE HELL DOES SHE EVEN KNOW HOW TO USE A PARALYSIS JUTSU! ESPECIALLY ONE THIS POWERFUL!'
"Kagura in order to pass you be able to perform the 'kawarimi' 'henge' and 'bushin' to a satisfactory level. You can Begin with the 'henge'."
Karura did so and turned into a disturbingly perfect copy of the 4th Hokage.
'She looks just like him' Iruka thought.
"Well done Kagura will move on to the 'kawarimi'" Iruka says with a small smile as he pulls out a blunt kunai and throws it at quickly replaces herself with a nearby plant and switches back.
"Well done. Now for the last jutsu the 'bunshin'". Without using hand seals much to Iruka's and Mizuki's surprise Kagura brings forth five perfect bushins before dismissing them and releasing Mizuki from her jutsu. The indifferent expression never leaving her face throughout the whole test.
"Well done Kagura, I'm proud to say you have passed the graduation exam and are now a Genin of Konoha." Iruka praises her while passing her a brand new and shiny hitai-ate.
"Congratulations." Kagura grabs the hitai-ate and places it on her forehead.
"I thank you for your wisdom and guidance Iruka sensei and I look foreword to working along side in the future." Kagura says respectfully to Iruka before exiting the room leaving behind a smiling Iruka and a scowling Mizuki.
Kagura quickly leaves the academy ignoring the shocked looks of her now fellow Genin and their parents and heads to her home to prepare for what looks to turn into a long and interesting night.
'Mizuki is clearly a traitor and is up to something but what I don't know yet. Ether way it will be fun to watch him fail. I might even get a chance to kill him. I also need to inform Zetsu of my passing.' Kagura thought has she walked into her apartment.
'Will be together again soon mother. Just wait a little longer.'
Chapter One End.
AN: So what do you guys think? This is my very first story ever so be honest. I know I'm not the best writer but I did my best. Tell me what you think. Should I continue it? What did you like or not like? Why did you like or not like it? Did I catch your interest and is there something you would like to see happen? Remember this is my very first story so don't expect the next chapter immediately. It will take one week at the earliest two weeks at the latest.
Also just to let you all know I will not put Kagura in a pairing! (maybe) If I do decide to do one it WILL BE A YURI PAIRING! It will also not be the main focus of the plot.
