Hello new readers. I am trying out this new story that I started writing, and it would mean the world to me if you guys gave this story a chance to read. I know the title seems very boring, (so original, I know :P) but it is definitely worth reading, and I'd love it if you guy would write me back some reviews, so I have something to look forward to.

Unfortunately, all Naruto characters belong to Kishimoto *cries* but meh little character I put in is mine though! *wraps arms protectively around Mitsumi*


Hate is what makes us monsters. It is what drives our insanity to let out our inner demons. To be innocent, yet so belittled by your own people makes the journey worthless. Hate is what drives you to strive for power. Hate is what man created to end power and life of others. But for some, hate is a way to make somebody motivated. To make someone reverse an effect on someone else. The bonds that man creates between certain people is what makes us sane. It is what makes us certain that we will get through our battle with our inner demons. Our bonds with people are always never blood related, but the fact that we hold much respect and dignity to our own will never cease to change. Never.

Drip. Drip. Drip.

The scent is too strong. Its metallic smell lingers too long in the air. She lays on her back looking up at the sky, to the stars, and wonder what sort of life she could've lived if she hang chose to do this mission.

'I'm such an idiot' she thinks as she lets out a raspy laugh that only results in her coughing up more blood. She came with hundreds of ninja. She was the only one who survived, well, maybe for not much longer, but she was the last one standing with life. Her labored breathing was the only sound in the air. She'd sent for help but not before she caught sight of the hand through her chest. The only thing she could do then was lay on the ground, while hearing the shrilling screams of her comrades falling to their demise.

'I'm useless. USELESS!' She cries out into her head, 'but I'm all alone now' she thinks bitterly. Her laughs died out long ago, now only replaced by silent tears streaming down her face. The leaves blew across the valley. Her broken headband laid right next to her with a single cut going across the middle. She, with the remaining strength she had of her chakra, carefully reached out to grasp the piece of metal. She took it and placed it on her chest. Then she heard footsteps, edging more and more near to her. They briefly stopped a few feet away from her. She shakily picked up her head to look at the one person who caused everything. The one who destroyed the lives of these innocent ninja. The one she used to love. Her eyes desperately pleaded with him to help, but all she had in return were the cold, coal-colored eyes looking back at her.

"Why?" She rasped out as she laid her head back down. She saw the stars again above her, until her vision faded into permanent darkness.

"WATCH OUT!" An obnoxious voice said, belonging to the one and only, Naruto Uzumaki. The blond barely just missed the girl walking in his path, as she let out a relieved sigh. She lifted an eyebrow at him as she saw a bucket of paint in one hand and a paintbrush in the other.

'Huh, wonder what that stuff's for' she thought as she spun around, but only succeeding in getting rammed into by two more ninja.

"Oh! We're so sorry miss," one of the ninja said, bowing to address his apology.

"Um, it's alright, it was just an accident, but I'm fine," she said, both her hands up, letting out a light laugh from her mouth.

"Excuse us though, miss, but have you seen a blind about your height with paint by any chance?" He asked, looking around.

'Why are they even looking for him?' She thought. Her question was soon answered when she looked up at the majestic side carving on the mountain up ahead. She desperately tried to suppress her giggle, as she saw the faces covered in red paint, but she ended up laughing anyways. After her laughter died down she looked back at the two ninja who were just staring at her, blushes easily spotted on their faces. Her brow gave a small quirk of annoyance.

"So you're looking for a boy?" She asked, trying to change the subject. Both men seemed to snap out of their daze at the mention of him.

"Ah, yes, well, have you seen him?" The other ninja asked.

"Have I seen him?" She asked herself, her finger tapping on her chin in thought, before snapping her fingers, "ah yes! I have, I believe he went that way," she said, jabbing her thumb in the opposite direction the boy ran.

"Oh, thank you miss-?"

"Mitsumi, but you can just call me Sumi for short," she said. The two ninja nodded their heads and sped off to catch the boy. Mitsumi. Smirked as she walked on.

'That's what you get you old perverts' she thought as she let out a small cackle. She had to admit, the paintings did look hilarious.

A few more minutes went by for Mitsumi before she finally found a place in the village where she could finally train. She came by an average sized pond with trees around.

"Okay, ONE MORE TIME!" She shouted. She made her hand sign and quickly shouted out after, "WATER STYLE JUTSU! DRAGON'S INFERNO!" the water started to swirl and twist up into the air until it formed a large water dragon with fire like eyes. It's sky blue scales glimmered in the sun, as it let out a mighty roar, spreading its powerful wings, easily slicing through the trees around it like paper. After the dragon calmed down, it looked around until it's glowing eyes found Mitsumi's summer blue-green eyes. It descended it's massive head towards her level. Mitsumi then hopped onto its nose to clearly look in its eyes.

"Are you the one who summoned me here to this mortal world?" The dragon asked, in his deep, baritone voice. Mitsumi nodded her head eagerly.

"Yep I did, and it only took almost all-" she was stopped abruptly when the dragon all of a sudden lifted its head up high into the air. Mitsumi let out a squeal as she didn't know what to do or think.

"I cannot believe that a child like you could summon someone like me," the dragon started stating, but was soon cut off by the sound of Mitsumi's angry voice.

"I sure did you dragon! I did this all by myself and clearly, I was the only person around the time when you emerged!" She said as she childishly stomped her foot on the dragon's nose, arms crossing her chest, with a heated glare on her face. The dragon looked back, not backing down, until after a few moments, when he realized that she wasn't letting go, did he breathe a sigh of defeat.

"What is it that you actually want with me child?" He asked, gazing his tired eyes into now Mitsumi's happy ones.

"It's Mitsumi first of all," she said, holding a finger up, "and second all I want is to be your henchman," she said, smiling at the dragon. The dragon looked taken aback for a second until his fire eyes softened towards the young girl.

"Hmmm, very well, but are you sure you are up for this job?" He asked looking back towards Mitsumi, who by now was jumping up and down with glee, until she noticed him staring again, and quickly stopped.

"Huh? Oh, YES I AM POSITIVE THAT I AM UP FOR THE JOB!" She said, mocking a salute towards the dragon. The dragon let out a deep laughter from the girls antics. He quickly flickered his eyes towards Mitsumi again when he felt her poking his nose.

"Um, excuse me, Mr. Dragon?" She asked, "what exactly is your name?"

A look of surprise flashed through the dragon's eyes, before full body of laughter erupted from him.

"My name? I am known as Deatron, Dragon of the Seven Worlds," he said with pride.

"Deatron huh? Cool, well as you know, my name is Katatori Mitsumi, but you can just call me Sumi for short," she said. After a few more minutes of chatting, and finalizing the contract, Deatron gently lowered Mitsumi down.

"Goodbye for now, Miss. Sumi," he said bowing his head towards her in respect, "we will meet again when it is right," he finished saying, right before he plunged back into the water, soaking Mitsumi down to the bone. After a few more minutes, Mitsumi finally opened her eyes.

"Oh. My. God," she whispered to herself, "I actually did it. I can't believe I DID IT!" She said, shouting the last part as she jumped around in small circles. She then looked at her hands. A genuine smile made her way on her face, then quickly disappeared as she looked towards her left.

'Someone's here' she thought as she waited a couple of more minutes for the sound. After not hearing anything, she closed her eyes and focused on her hearing more. She suddenly then snapped her eyes open, and whipped her head towards upward in the trees. She then swiftly turned around, her kunai in hand, to attack, but then immediately stopped.

"Who're you?" She asked, one eyebrow raised towards the now almost passed out blond. It took a few moments, but the boy soon quickly composed himself, and put on a wide grin.

"My name is Naruto Uzumaki, and I'm going to be the next Hokage someday!" He said, holding a thumbs up, "but who're you?" He asked, his head tilting to the side a little. Mitsumi stopped for a moment, taking in the boy in front of her. He was about the same height as her, maybe a slim higher, with bright, sunshine hair, and clear blue eyes. He had three whisker marks on each side of s face, his orange and blue jumpsuit standing out from the green forest around him.

"So what's your name?"

"Huh?" Mitsumi asked, unsure of what Naruto asked.

"Your name? What is it? I've never seen you around here in the village before," Naruto asked again, his eyes shut while examining her.

"Oh! My name is Katatori Mitsumi, and I'm actually new here. I was originally from the Land of the Water, but then I was requested by the third Hokage here to come and see if I wanted to join this village, and experience a new life here," she concluded, looking back at Naruto.

"Mitsumi huh?" Naruto questioned.

"Yeah, but can just call me Sumi for short, if you'd like."

"So you're from a different village," he said, holding his hand to his chin, "that's cool, so are you going to ninja school to become a chunin too?" He suddenly asked.

"Yes I am actually," she paused for a second. "But to be honest, I'm actually a little nervous about it. How are some of the people there?" She asked, biting her lip slightly.

"The people there, huh?" Naruto asked himself, both his arms behind his head, in thought, "well there's Iruka-sensei, he's the teacher for us, he's really funny too, I'm always pulling my sexy-jutsu around him to try and get a better grade, but it ends up not working," he paused for a moment to look towards Mitsumi. She had her eyebrow raised, questioning.

"Long story," Naruto quickly replied. Mitsumi let out a silent "Ahhh" as if she understood.

"Anyways," Naruto said, continuing, "then there's Kiba, he's a real animal, you'll always see him with Akamaru with him, that's his pet dog, then there's Shikamaru, there's not a lot to tell about him, other than he likes to look at clouds, and do nothing. Then there's Choji, he likes to eat a lot, well actually he's eating all the time, but don't ever call him fat though," he said, while Mitsumi nodded her head slowly, absorbing the information, "and then there's Hinata, she's really shy actually, and kind of weird if I say so myself," Naruto said, gazing out, then looked at Mitsumi, "but the ones you really gotta watch out for are teme's fan girls. They will go crazy if you're near him, probably tear you to shreds." Naruto shuddered at the memory after accidentally kissing that bastard, what the girls did to him.

"So, who's the Teme you're talking about? Seems that you know him pretty well," Mitsumi asked.

"You don't know the half of it," Naruto sighed dramatically, "he thinks he's Mr. perfect in everything, always getting the highest scores on tests, and stuff," Naruto said with a huff, his arms crossed, pout on his face. Mitsumi walked over and sat down next to him.

"So what's his name?" She asked.

"His name's Sasuke," Naruto said.

'Sasuke, huh?' Mitsumi thought.

"-starting class?"

"Huh?" Mitsumi asked.

"So when're starting class?" Naruto asked.

"Oh! I start tomorrow, I believe," Mitsumi replied.

"That's cool," Naruto said, his hands behind his head again, "hey, do you want to go get some ramen with me?" Naruto asked ,"I know this really great place where they sell the best ramen ever!" he said with a cheery grin. Mitsumi gave it some thought before replying.

"Sure," she said, a smile plastered on her face, "I'd love to."
