Author: Nephilum-Kat
Story Rating: M
Chapters: 1/??
Chapter Rating: K+
Summary: It started in Kah'neur, in the rain, and I'd just run from orphanage that had been my prison for the last six years. I had never felt so alive.
AN: Well. Another story for the pile. I like this idea a bit more than the others I've spouted out recently
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto (like we don't know that) and the book 'Fire Starter' belongs to his awesomeness Steven King. The rest of it – setting, the powers of the Naruto characters, some other minor stuff – belongs to yours truly. Large-scale things, when I think them up, will be noted up here or at the AN down at the bottom.
This is so obviously AU I shouldn't have to say anything.
Also, if you have seen the preview for it, doesn't Push look TOTALLY FRICKING AWESOME?! *ahem * yeah, right. Anyway!

There is no definition for what we do.
I say 'we' because I am not alone. Poetic, right? Ha. Our lives, some of us especially, are hardly poetic. Ostracized from society, we live on the fringes of the galaxy, inhabiting trade planets and abandoned space out-posts. Those of us that 'camouflage' with the normal people of the many races and species live constant lies.
There is no definition for what we do.
What do we do? You must be wondering. You have every right to wonder. If you don't know then you can't judge us through society. You get to hear our story first hand. Anyway, what do we do? We have highly advanced mental abilities. So advanced, in fact, that entire planets can be destroyed by one of our 'temper-tantrums'. It's happened twice in recorded history. I've seen it happen once.
Not to say that it hasn't happened in unrecorded history. It's just that the scientists who run this galaxy like to keep the people stupid and complacent, like well-fed pigs on a meat farm. Ninety-nine percent of the average populace doesn't even know Curengai and Rolandria where cindered by rogue - and insane - psychics, running from AT-GAME and the Galactic Police so that they wouldn't have to go back to the Plants.
But I'm getting ahead of myself here. I haven't even properly introduced myself yet. My name is Naruto Uzumaki. I am a compound-psychic.
And I can blow your mind.
Short and to the point, yes, but I like it. Onward!
Also, I'm hoping to write looooong chapters, so updates may not be all too quick. I hope it'll be worth it though. :3
