Something New
Chapter 1: starting out
Koomahana
Something new…
Something no one saw…
Something everyone else had but over looked…
…A monster or child?
She wanted something everyone had… but never saw…
Something new… a new world… a new home…
That's something she wanted…
So she when she woke, she thanked her healers and left to start collecting…
One by one she picked them up…
She stole them from the greedy hands of men…
She heard something snap as she fell and cried out,
She only wanted her parents…
She only wanted a family…
She didn't want to be alone anymore…
She only wanted to be safe…
She stole them from fearful men…
he only wanted to play…
he only wanted to give the ball back…
he didn't want to be alone anymore…
She stole them from a spiteful village…
please don't hate me…
why am I alone?
what did I do wrong?
She stole them from power hungry fools…
but we're not monsters…
we're more then just weapons…
…right?
She stole them from hateful men…
I only want to play... but he comes out,
why is the seal broken?
I only want to learn…
I only want to play…
I only want to be accepted…
There was only one she could not steal away…
"Yo! What'd you want?" he asked as he stared up at the pretty lady smiling down at him.
"To take you from this place..." she whispered, a smile on her face as she offered a hand.
"But I like it here..." he replied, for once not rhyming his words as he stared up at her, she tilted her head curiously.
"I like it here," he repeated, knowing that now was not the time to play jokes and that the woman was completely serious. "It'll get hard some days but that's okay, someday I'll be accepted by everyone, not by just one."
"You truly wish to stay?" she asked again, her hand still held out, he nodded. "You wish to stand by only one man?" she asked."For that is all that stands beside you for now, this is what you want?"
"Yes ma'am!" he grinned and threw his hands behind his head. "I'd like to meet the others some day, but I'm happy here." She smiled and pulled her hand up slightly, before making a fist and turning it down as if she wanted to bump fists with him.
"Take this," She said with her soft smile. "When you can no longer stand, remember us." He held his hand out and she opened hers in return,a tiny little trinket fell into his palm.
"Remember us," She whispered as she stepped away from him. "Remember there will always be a home for you..."
"Huh?" He tilted his head at the woman, before examining the tiny trinket in his palm.
It was a multicolored stone...
It thrummed with an excited chakra…
A welcoming chakra…
A warm chakra…
…A familer chakra.
"We will wait for you in the land between the five nations," She whispered a soft smile playing on her lips. "You will always be welcomed..." She jumped away and faded from view before she even landed, her voice echoed in his head as her chakra faded from his perception.
"B!" a familer voice cried out, he turned and watched as a worried friend came rushing at him.
"B!" strong arms wrapped around him tightly. "Are you okay?!" the older boy held him by the shoulders, his eyes wide and worried.
"Yo bro!" B grinned up at him. "What's up? Why you panikin? What're you thinken?"
"A woman came by and said she was going to take you away," A said as he wrapped his arms around his adouptive brother again. "She said we weren't taking care of you..."
"Tis' cool bro! You missed her too!"
"What?!" A looked down at B for a moment, his brow twitching. "We just missed her?" B nodded his head.
"The deal was pretty sweet," B replied with a cocky grin, knowing that A was both curious and quickly approaching furious. "But I told her no, she understood."
"...What was the deal?" A asked curious as to what the strange woman could want with B, other then the obvious.
"She wanted to take me home," B answered, his cocky grin turned soft as if he were remembering a fond memory, his glasses slid down a little,reveling his thoughtful brown eyes. "She said she was keeping her children safe."
"Her children?" A asked, his hands tightened slightly around the smaller boy.
"The others like me," B answered, his grin widening. "The other Jinchuriki, she's collecting us so that we won't know sadness. She says that we weren't treated well because we carried the guardians of our villages. So she took them away to keep them safe. She says that a war is coming, one that will steal all of us away." A thought his heart had stopped at the that, if that was true then he had better do something to prevent it; especially if his little brother's life was at stake.
"She said that we had to be ready." B continued softly, not noticing his pale faced older brother. "She said that she wanted to protect us from the monster coming. But she could only do that if we choose to stand with her." Again B's smile faded slightly as he remembered the strange woman's words, his shoulders slumping as he recalled how serious he was. "In return we'd have a home. We'd be accepted because everyone around us is the same as us. That and no one would hurt us for being different,because we wouldn't be different."
B grinned cheekily up at A. "I told her it'd be nice to meet the others like me," he said. "But I was happy here."
…
…
She collected what everyone wanted but had always over looked…
She had collected and gathered them all…save one…
The only one who didn't need saving…
The only one who was already accepted…
"Come along children," She said as she took the hands of the youngest two. "It's time to head home now."
"He's not coming?" a girl with long yellow hair asked, a shyer teal haired girl hid half heartedly behind her.
"He's happy," She replied with a gentile smile. "He has a brother there that loves him despite everything within the village."
"Will we be happy?" the little red haired boy to the woman's right asked softly. "You said that we must train to protect the guardians… but will they protect us?"
"Anything is possible." She replied as they began to walk. "Weather you're guardians choose to protect you is up to them." She winked playfully down at the tiny boy to her right. "But I'd think that's such a silly question. After all, he's already protecting you." The tiny boy blushed as he glanced at the gourd on his back, it was the same size he was and reminded him of his home, of the people he left behind.
"Then we'll protect you!" said the bright haired little boy on her other side, his blue eyes shinning brightly up at her. "After all, someone has to protect the guardian of the guardians!"
"He's right, Nee-chan," the teal haired girl said with a smile as she stepped out from behind her friend. "We'll protect the guardian of the guardians!" The woman smiled at them, her green eyes shining with unshed tears.
"Then let us go home." The woman said as her hood shifted back a little with the wind, letting pink locks out to fly and play with the passing wind.
