~Story Begin~
A woman held onto the hand of a small six year old girl, her twin brother following after them, as they raced through the night forest. The cry of the infant wrapped around her torso alerted her.
"Hush, Hotaru," she cooed. "I will get you to safety."
"Where are we going, mommy?" The girl asked as she stumbled over the uplifted roots.
"I'm taking you away from the village. It is no longer safe for you three to be there,"
"Why isn't it safe?" The boy questioned.
She hushed the children and pulled them down into the bushes. She pushed her pinky into Hotaru's mouth to quite her cries. Two men cloaked in black hustled by them.
"They went this way!" One shouted.
"Don't let that wench get away," the other commented.
After the men had been gone for several long moments, the mother continued on her way with her children close to her heels.
"There are bad men who are after you. The village hidden in the leaves will be able to protect you from them."
A man suddenly stood in her way. She came to an abrupt stop making both children to run into her and topple over each other.
"There you are," the man said.
"Leave, Kosuke! You are not to touch them anymore!" the woman yelled.
The man named Kosuke stepped towards her, his white hair swaying against his back with every step.
"They are my children as well as yours, Naomi. You will give them to me." He stated.
"No!" She kicked him in the stomach. He toppled back and clutched his stomach. Naomi quickly wrapped Hotaru's blanket around the boy. "Take your sisters to the village. They are waiting for your arrival. Run, Li!"
Li nodded and grabbed onto his sister's hand and began to run away. The younger girl looked back to see her mother fighting her father.
"No, we have to save mommy!" she cried as she reached back.
"We have to go, Leiko," Li said to her.
And so, they ran.
Leiko stood from her crouch on the roof tops of Kohona. She had a dream about her mother again and had to get alone. Her hair shifted in the wind as she stretched.
"That night," she started.
"Was the last time we saw her," a voice behind her said.
She turned her head slightly and sighed. "I know, Li. I still miss her."
"It's been seven years, Leiko," he stepped towards her and set his hand on her shoulder. "You need to let it go, or you will never excel beyond a genin."
"Why haven't you, Li?" She turned to him.
He stopped and raised up his hands. "It's the ladies here! They won't let me train!"
Leiko snickered, "do I need to train you older brother?"
Li took a large step back.
"Of course not, Leiko-san! I can get by on my own," he stuttered.
She took a small step towards him. "We start in five minutes on the training field. Don't let me beat you there."
Li smiled nervously and jumped from the roof top and began running past merchants.
"No!" He shouted as he ran past Naruto, Sasuke, and Neji.
"Leiko is at it again, isn't she?" Naruto laughed.
"It would appear that way, wouldn't you say, Neji?" Sasuke commented.
Neji nodded as the three of them watched the dust trail behind Li slowly vanish past the market. Leiko flipped off of the roof and walked towards them.
"Hello, gentlemen," she smiled and bowed to them.
"Hi, Leiko-san! What has Li done today?" Naruto replied overly happy.
"It's what he hasn't done that you should be asking, Naruto," Sasuke snapped.
Neji bowed back to her. "Will you be sparing on the field today?" Neji asked.
"Yes, I actually wanted to invite you all to join us for some extra training," she said.
"Count us in!" Naruto jumped up in excitement. "Wait for me, Li!"
Naruto followed after Li, shouting the entire way.
"Shall we?" Neji said.
Leiko nodded and led the way for the three, all the while, thinking of her past.
Cheesy strange start! I know! But that's how I wanted to start it. Now, I'm writing two stories at once. One Naruto, one Beyblade. Which ever one gets more hits on it, the more I write on it. So please review!
