Child of the sea
Chapter 1
Disclaimer: okay, so this story is in the Naruto universe and my character is Toru Umiko so this story will be about her with the ninjas in the hidden leaf village. I don't own Naruto at all, I'm just writing this story cause I'm bored. So, enjoy. I really have no idea where I'm going with this story so I'm just writing and going to see where it goes in my mind.
"get back here you brat!" a shopkeeper yelled as I ran away laughing. Now why would a 16-year-old be running away laughing? Well I had used a water style jutsu to flood a shop. I'm not a ninja. My uncle taught me jutsu, while my aunt disapproved.
I don't know who my mother is. I've never seen a picture of her. my aunt tells me I look just like her. they never mention my father. I live in a small town hidden near the bottom of a mountain, near the border of the land of fire.
Since it can get boring in this small town I cause trouble just for fun. I came to a walk. "Toru!" my aunt yelled as she walked down the street. I froze and sighed. "yes auntie?" I asked.
"you did it again! If I get anymore complaints that you've flooded shops and being demanded to pay for damages I will ground you!" Auntie yelled at me. she grabbed the sleeve of my purple kimono I was wearing.
I walked with auntie back to our compound. My name is Toru Umiko. The Umiko symbol for our clan is a water drop with two wave peaks in the water drop. My uncle says im the child of the sea. Toru means sea and Umiko means child of the sea, how our clan was named Umiko is long ago a child was born from the sea, she grew up to use only water for jutsu as that was the only nature type she could use.
She became the strongest water user in the five great nations long ago, her name was Umiko. She married and started a clan, the clan of children of the sea, the clan of water nature jutsu users.
But its all just a story, my auntie says that not everyone is a water jutsu user, she can only use earth style jutsu. My auntie and mother were twins and born into the main family of the Umiko clan. My auntie won't tell me anything of my mother.
I went to go sit at the table. My auntie placed food onto the table. My uncle came and sat down too. "heard you caused some trouble today Toru" uncle said.
"yeah. I did. Can you teach me another new jutsu uncle?" I asked. "No! you are not teaching her anymore jutsu Shiro!" auntie yelled at uncle as she sat down.
"Toru is old enough to learn how to protect herself Ran" uncle said. I bowed my head. "thanks for the food" I said and picked up my rice bowl to start eating.
I ate my food quietly as auntie and uncle bickered about letting me use jutsu. "she is supposed to be the head of the clan when she turns 20! She must learn how to be a lady and be able to know politics. Not how to fight! Look where that led my sister!" auntie yelled.
I lifted my head when auntie mentioned my mother. "my mother knew how to be a ninja?" I asked. My auntie looked shocked at her slip up. "Toru will not learn how to be a ninja and that's final" auntie said as she stood and stormed off.
"Toru, here's some money. Go and get some dango or whatever. I'll take with ran" uncle gave me some money and I left the compound.
I went to the dango shop and got some dangos. I sat outside on the grass. Why won't auntie tell me about my mother?
I started to randomly pull grass. I lifted my hand and let the grass fly away with the wind. All of the sudden I heard an explosion. I turned my head sharply and there were flames, Screams of people and people running.
