The Strange Girl
Chapter One
As the Konoha guards were preparing to close the front gate for the night,they stopped when they saw someone,slowly approaching while carrying something in their arms.
As the person got closer,the guards saw that it was woman,and she was carrying a basket.
As the woman got closer,the guards saw that her clothes were torn in different places,and that she also seemed to be limping.
Not certain who the woman was,the guards took a defensive stance,while one of them asked:
"What is your purpose here?"
The woman hearing them,stopped where she was,and looked up at the guards.
The guards where shocked by what they saw,because the woman had blood running down her face, one of her eyes had swollen shut,and the other eye was barely open.
Forgetting that the woman might be a possible enemy,the guards rushed out to her,and helped her inside the gate.
"Go notify Hokage-sama,about her."said the first guard.
"At once."said the second guard(who took off.)
After the second guard had left,the first guard lead the woman over towards the wall,and helped her to sit down.
"Can you tell me what happened,to you?"asked the first guard.
Turning her head a little so that she could look in his direction,the woman said:
"I was attacked by a group of men."
"Did they just attack you,or was they after something?"asked the guard.
"They wanted my baby."said the woman(looking towards the basket.)I am so very tired."(starts to doze off.)
"You need to stay awake."said the first guard(gently shaking the woman)Especially what with that head injury."
As the woman raised her hand to touch her head,the second guard returned.
"The Hokage said to take her to the hospital,and that he will meet us there,as soon as the meeting is over."said the second guard.
"Alright."said the first guard.
"Go lock up the gate,then come back and help me with her."
"Do you think you can walk to the hospital,or do I need to carry you?"asked the first guard.
"If it is no trouble can you carry me,since I am so tired?"asked the woman.
"Of course."said the first guard(gently picking the woman up)My friend can carry your baby(nodding towards the returning guard.)"
As the second guard took the basket,the first guard headed off in the direction of the hospital.
(skipping ahead.)
A few hours later The Hokage arrived at the hospital.
Going up to the receptionist,he asked:
"I am here to see the young woman,that was brought in."Where might I find her?"
"Are you referring to the one,the two guards brought in,Lord Hokage?"asked the receptionist.
"Yes I am."said The Hokage.
"I am sorry Lord Hokage,but the young woman has passed away."said the receptionist.
"What about the child,that was with her?"asked The Hokage.
"The child is fine,Lord Hokage."said the receptionist.
"We was going to send her to the orphanage,but we thought it best,that you saw her before we did so."
"Is there something wrong with her?"asked The Hokage.
"Not really wrong."said the receptionist.
"It might be best if you saw her,for yourself sir."
"What room is she in?"asked The Hokage.
"I'll show you sir."said the receptionist(getting to her feet,and starting down the hall.)
As The Hokage fell in behind her,they walked in silence,eventually reaching a room.
"Here we are Lord Hokage."said the receptionist.(opening the door,and going inside.)
Going inside The Hokage saw a small child of about four to six months old,curled up on the bed.
Getting closer to the girl,so as to see what was wrong with her,he was very surprised by what he saw.
"As you can see Lord Hokage,we weren't to sure about sending her to the orphanage,based on how she looked."said the receptionist.
The Hokage still couldn't believe what he was seeing,but what he saw in front of him,was a small child with pale skin and silver hair.
But what he found most shocking,was the fact that the girl also had the ears,whiskers,and tail of a cat.
