The Out Cast

It's storming, raining and wind gust surrounds a village. A man is yelling "Where did she go?" another boy in a black falcon ninja outfit appears in front of the man "Hayate, she's gone." Hayate nods "Good job Ryu, if you or anyone else catches her near the village, kill her and that's an order!" Everyone nodded. A man walks up to Hayate and bows "Sir, she was seen running into a nearby hut with your mother." Hayate appears there with 3 other ninja's and Ryu. "Where is she, Mother?" She stands up "Hayate, stop this nonsense! She is your little sister! She is only 10 years old!" Hayate was getting tired of his sisters games "I don't CARE! She RAN AWAY MOTHER! She can't come back here and expect to be the same!" "Ayane, I'm giving her up" Ayane looked to her right to see her husband holding her daughter's arms behind her back "Shiden, don't do this!"Shiden looked at her "Enough, Ayane."

Ayane watched as they threw her daughter outside the village walls and into the pouring rain. The girl got up as the doors started closing, she ran to the doors as they slammed shut. She pounded on the door, begging them to open it but they didn't answer her. She started to scream for her mother. She rejoiced when she heard her mother's voice "Don't worry, Kasumi… I'll talk to your father and brother. I have to go now baby. Please be safe" "Mama! Mama!" She fell to her knees and cried... Kasumi got up and walked away from the door, she didn't even look back. She just walked away looking straight ahead. She stumbled and fell down. "Are you okay?" She looked up "Who are you?" the person smiled "My name is Isabella. Don't worry I will not hurt you" Kasumi got up slowly. "My name is Kasumi… I was just kicked out of my village…" Isabella frowned "I'm sorry, Kasumi… Come with me, I can protect you and train you."

Kasumi followed Isabella to a huge house out in the middle of a field. Isabella opened the door and held it open for Kasumi then locked it when she got in. "I'm Home Grandpa!" a young looking man looks out of a doorway "Oh hello Isabella. My, who is this charming young lady?" Kasumi blushed "My name is Kasumi." He walks up to her "My name is Roy. Nice meet to you." Isabella groans "Are you hungry, Kasumi?" Kasumi smiled "Yes please." Kasumi slipped her shoes off and ran after Isabella. Isabella handed her a glass of fizzy stuff and a plate of sushi. Kasumi looked at Isabella "What is this fizzy stuff?" Isabella laughed "It's called pop. It's not healthy but that's why I gave you sushi." Kasumi nodded and took a drink and giggled "It's good! Thank you!" Isabella sat down and watched her.

Back at the Shinobi village, Ryu and Hayate were fighting "Dude, your sister could be dead by now!" Hayate shrugged it off "So, she shouldn't have left in the village in the first place!" Ryu punched him "She needs her mother and father! Raido and Genra are still loose and looking for her! You just threw her into their arms!" Hayate looked at him with a bloody mouth "It was either them or kill her myself! So I chose them!" Ryu pants "You're a low life bastard!" Hayate turns to him "Then leave to your village. You are my best friend, Ryu. I will forgive you and your rude words." Ryu nodded and left but he decided to try to find Kasumi. He searched and searched and couldn't find anything until his eyes caught something in a bandit's hand. He hid in a tree nearby and saw him lift up Kasumi's sword and sheath and they lifted up a small bag that looked like held a body in it. "N-no… K-Kasumi…" Tears suddenly stained his eyes and he retreated to his village.

Kasumi and Isabella were walking upstairs and Isabella showed her to a spare room "Good night Kasumi. I will see you tomorrow in the morning for breakfast." Kasumi smiled "Good night, big sis." Kasumi shut the door softly, changed her clothes, laid them on a chair; put a white shirt that had a name written on the back of it. The name was written in black and blue ink. It said Kasumi and Ryu friends forever. She lies down in bed and fell asleep. Isabella went to sleep as soon as she plopped on to her bed in the room next to Kasumi's. Ryu couldn't sleep, his mind was on that bag those men were carrying… "Kasumi has been killed…Hayate shall be notified in the morning" He fell asleep holding Kasumi's wrist band she made him.
