(Treanna's Point Of View)
It had been six months since I have arrived here in Konoha and it has been a hell of a ride. Caleb, the name of the baby, head now turned none months old. He is quite the rascal since he learned to crawl. He's always wanting to go out of the ally way but I don't let him because it is to dangerous for him.
The store that I first went to that is owned by Ms. Ritsu, name of the store owner, is actually a really nice place. She lets me have food for free if I work two hours a day there at the store.
For the past few months, I have been working on my Kekkei Genkai which is to control water. I'm not very good at it and every time my skin touched water, it would turn to ice. My clan also specialized in Taijutsu and strength which is also something that I have no control over.
At night i would go to Training Ground Seven, since no one was around, to train. I remember my father's teaching of how to use our strength in battle, but I was only five at the time so I only remember bus and pieces.
I would channel chakra into my fists then punch a tree which would leave a dent in the tree if I did two little chakra but if I did too much then it would knock down the whole tree. I feel bad for the people who go to this training ground to have to deal with fallen over trees.
For controlling water, I would try to push it back and forth but instead it would just make a wave instead. When I try to use it for training, it would either freeze or go the opposite way I want it to go. I wish I could have real training but since...that happened, there's no one to train me.
I sighed, coming out of my thoughts, I look over to my baby brother to see him asleep on a cardboard box with a small blanket over him. I wish that we weren't living like this but instead we could have a normal life. I have managed to keep us from the danger zone of malnutrition but we are still in a bad state.
I have not changed clothes since we became homeless so my clothes are ripped and dirty, and so are Caleb's. I have taken a dip in the river of the training ground I practice at keep me and Caleb clean but it's still not a proper bath so we still are really dirty.
I stood up and dusted off the dirt on my clothes then look up at the sky. It is around midnight so I hurry and kiss Caleb on the head then start to walk to Training Ground Seven so I could train some more. I looked around me to make sure that I go undetected.
I remember my father telling me how to conceal my chakra so I use that technique so none of the Shinobi find me and brings me to there leader which was the Hokage. I walked in the shadows of the Leaf Village until I got to the place I needed to go.
I sighed as I stopped concealing my chakra but I still kept my guard up because father said that was important to do at all times. I head over to a tree stump that I use for taijutsu and started training.
"Your form is wrong..."
I turned around to see a boy about two years older than me standing ay about twenty feet away. I looked down and started playing with my fingers. "What are you doing here?". I asked softly. I was really shy with people I did not know very well.
He scoffed and looked at me with a bored look. "I came here to train, but it seems like someone beat me to it...and it's someone who doesn't even know how to train properly.". A tear escaped my eye as I bowed to show my respect.
"I'm so sorry! I will get out of your way...". I slowly walked out of the training ground while another tear slide from my left eye. I hurry and wiped it away and called myself weak for crying. I thought back to what he said about me not being able Lee to train properly which was very true. I don't know why I even try to train if I don't know what I am doing...
I stopped myself before I could get further into town then I started to think about what i could do about not being able to train properly. I couldn't go all for a personal trainer because I am not from this village...maybe...I could watch someone and follow what they are doing. That's when I thought of the perfect plan.
I ran back to Training Ground Seven and climbed into a tree which was tall enough for me to see the whole training ground. I looked down in the middle to see the same boy training his taijutsu. I looked at his stance and tried to copy it.
'Alright...stick my foot house like this...bend my knee in front of me...lean back a little bit...I think I got it!'. I felt unnatural but I'm guessing that I just have to practice it then I will get comfortable with it
"I know your up there..."
Crap! I forgot to conceal my chakra so he would not sense me. He told me to come down so I did very slowly. Once I was down, he walked up to be and folded his arms in a serious manner. "Why are you spying on my me?"
I started to post with my fingers again as I told him my situation. "You were right about me not being able to train properly and I can't get a personal trainer so I thought it I watched you then I would be able to get better...". He sighed and walked away from me. I looked down in disappointment until he brought his hand up, telling me to follow him.
My eyes widen in joy as I ran up to him and walked with him until we reached the middle of the training field. He turned to look at me with a bored look with a hint of seriousness in his eyes. "Alright, me your fighting stance.". I nodded as I remembered the stance he did so I tried to mirror it.
He shook his head as he walked toward me and pushed my feet in a certain position and focused my arms into a stance. "There...". He said as I bowed to him, thanking him. I looked up at the sky and I saw that it was almost dawn. I bowed to him again, apologising, telling him that I had to go.
He just nodded and I hurry and ran back to where my brother Caleb was. Remembering to conceal my chakra so the Leaf shinobi don't sense me, I made back to the ally way I call home. I see that Caleb was still asleep so I hurried and went to see Ms. Ritsu about work since she just opened.
Going inside, I see her getting ready to open the store so I walked over to ask if she needed any help. She told me to go to the back and start to organize the stuff back there by the expired dates. I understood what I had to do so I headed back to the back of the store and started to organize the products.
**********Time skip brought to you by the author being sick**********
It was the end of my shift and I concealed my Chakra so none of the Leaf shinobi would find me. Once I got to the ally way that my brother and I stayed in, I hurried and checked to see if my brother was up or not. He probably was not up yet because it was only seven thirty in the morning.
When i got there I started to freak out. He. Was. Gone. I look all over the ally way to find him which was the card board boxes, the trashcan, in the dark corners, etc. I started hyperventilating because i didn't know what to do. I did the first thing that came into my mind. To look in the Village.
I ran out of the ally way so fast and started looking so I forgot to conceal my Chakra. I looked high and low for him but could not find him anywhere. The last place I had to check was the park so I headed there and I found him asleep under a tree with birds walking around him.
I ran up to him and put him into my arms and held him tightly because I was afraid that if I let go then he would disappear. "Oh Caleb...I was so scared I lost you...". I started walking home with him, still asleep, in my arms. I got too the Red Light District where it was mostly empty because people were still asleep.
"Well, well, well... look what we have here...a little near and it's baby.". I turned around to see three men that smelled of alcohol and whiskey. "Look at their hair, there is only one clan who has hair like that and there monsters!". Tears spill from my eyes and I start to back away. 'These men are drunk so I have no idea what they are going to do...'
I turned around and tried to run away but one of them jumped over me andv leaned on front of me. I started walking backward but the other two men stop me. "We are Leaf Shinobi...we are supposed to get rid if monsters like you...". The two men grab my shoulders keep me in place so all I could do was to clutch Caleb close to me.
Caleb woke up and started to cry as her saw the man in front of us. The drunk man smirk as he brought out a kunai and mumbled something like "this is going to be fun.". The kunai slashed my arm deeply which made me cry out in pain. The two men behind me push me to the ground harshly which made my head hit the ground hard.
I clutched onto Caleb so free would not get hurt from the beating. About five minutes went by and I started to get numb from the pain. One of the men made me sit up on my knees and the drunk man slashed me face with the kunai which was going to leave a scar. They pushed me back to the ground again and started kicking me.
"Stop hurting her!"
I heard a boy shout from a small distance then all the sudden the men were pushed away from me and they started to walk away. I was two weak to move so the boy flipped me over so I could see him. He had black hair and black eyes with orange goggles covering them. He had a blue outfit with an orange trim that also had an Uchiha crest on the back.
'So he's am Uchiha huh, interesting...". He had a concern look on his face as he checked my injuries. "Oh no! You look bad...I will get you back to my team... Rin will be able to fix you up!". He picked me up bridal style and started running towards the training fields of the village.
Once we arrived, the boy that I meet last night started shouting at him whilea brunette and a tall blonde man just sighed. "I was late because u was saving this girl from a bunch of drunk men, and I was hoping Rin could fix get up!". The girl gasped and said to put the girl down and she started to do medical Ninjutsu to fix my wounds.
"Obito! Where did you find her!". The Jounin instructor asked the boy who saved me who, I guess, is named Obito. "I found her on the Red Light District being beat up.". I opened my eyes to see the man looking at me Ruth a furrowed brow. "She's from the Rose clan, telling by her hair... But how, I thought they were all wiped out!".
The girl named Rin sighed as she looked at my face, "who ever she may be, she got beat up pretty bad... They gave her a scar on her face that can never be healed.". Obito looked down in Shame as the white haired boy scoffed. "I found last night training on our field...I should have known". Obito looked at him with confusion. "Known what?"
"Look at her clothe, baka! They are all torn, dirty, and old and she is to skinny for her size. She must be homeless.". Obito glared at him but then looked at me with pity. I clutched Caleb to me as he opened his eyes and looked around. "She's even got a kid with her who is also from the Rose clan.". Minato sighed. "We should take her to the Hokage."
Rin looked at me with a smile, "can you walk?". I nodded and started to stand which was hard to do with Caleb in my arms. He started to squirm but I still bowed, showing my gratitude. "Thank you so much for all you have done.". The man kneeled down and told me that we have to see the Hokage and asked me to join then.
I looked down at my brother as he just looks so me with a smile. I smiled back at i told him that I will go. We started walking towards the Hokage's office when I saw many people staring and whispering things about Caleb and I. I just tried to ignore them as we made it to the Hokage's office.
The blonde Jounin instructor knocked on the door and a gravely voice told us to come in. We piled in and the Hokage stared at me with confusion as he looked at the man in charge of this team. Hello team Minato, tell me, who is this girl?". Obito told him about what happened with the drunk men and house they abused me. The blonde who's apparently name is Minato told him that I am from the Rose clan.
His eyes widen and asked me if this was true. I shyly nodded me head then bowed to him showing my respect. "Yes, it is true... My name is Breanna Rose and this is my brother, Caleb Rose.". The Hokage put a hand on his chin. "So you yep are the sole survivers of the Rose clan, hmm. What are you doing here in Konoha?".
"Once my brother and I escaped, we walked for days until I ended up on front of the gate on Konoha, but it was around midnight so the guard was on high alert so I decided that shooting face would not be a good idea so I found another way in. I have lived in an ally way on Annandale Way for about six months, sir.". He nodded, taking the information in firmly them put the smoke pipe in his mouth and took a puff.
"So you have been homeless for six months, huh. And how did you get food and water?". I told him I took a job in a store where instead of giving me money they gave me food and supplies. He hummed then put a smile on his face. "Well, I don't like the thought of a baby and a small child to be out homeless in the cold! Let's get you situated in a home, shall we!".
I looked at him surprised then o gave him another bow, thanking him. He told me to rise as he started thinking again. "I don't want to but you into a house alone...I want you to be with a family so they could help you raise the child..."
"I will be honored to take her in, sir.". I look over to see Minato with a smile on his face as he bowed his head then smiled down at me as I get tears in my eyes. "Are you sure, Minato?". He nodded. "I have always wanted children and I'm sure Kushina would love to have children around the house.". Tears start to spill from my eyes as i started to bow very low telling him thank you over and over again.
The Hokage smile at me as he pulled out a paper and started to fill it out. He then asked Minato to sign it then for me to sign it. I put Caleb on one arm so I could sign the paper. He looked down at the paper and smiled. "And that will do it! I'm guessing That you want to be a ninja since you are a Rose.". I nodded and told me that I would be on team Minato as he pulled out another paper and wrote something on it.
I bowed and thanked him again as he dismissed us. Once we were outside of the Hokage building, Obito have me a thumbs up and welcomed me to the team while Rin gave a nice smile and also welcomed me and Kakashi just said welcome. Minato clapped his hands for our attention and told us to meet at the training ground at eight tomorrow for introductions and training.
"Hai!". Every one said as they started to walk on different directions. Minato or...Tou-san looked down at me and smiled. "Well, do too you want to go home the long way or the slow way?". I told him the fast way and he grabbed on to my shoulder then suddenly, we were in front of his house. I looked around confused until Minato told me that it was time to meet his wife. I nodded and we walked inside his house. It was about a medium sized house that was enough for a four person squad.
"I'm home, and I brought someone!". A woman with red beautiful hair came out of the kitchen while holding a spoon. "I wasn't expecting you home so early, Minato?". Then she looked at me then her eyes soften, "who are these adorable new children.". Mina- I mean Tou-san rubbed the back of his head. "Well about that...um...these are...are...are adopted children...". Her eyes widen and she started taking quickly and asking questions about what Tou-san just said. I put my head down, thinking that she want going to accept Caleb and I.
Tou-san told her the whole situation of us being homeless and us being from the Rose clan and us needing a family to take care of them so he volunteered. Kushina quieted down then got on her knees and looked at my face. She rubbed hey finger against my scar on my face and asked where I got it. I told her the story of how today I attacked by some drunk men and gave me this scar but I was saved by a bit named Obito and how team Minato was very kind to me.
She gave me a kind smile then looked over at the little boy in my arms who is just staring at the woman with curiosity. "So... Who's this little guy?". I told her that his name was Caleb Rose and I'd say the age of nine months and that he was my little brother. She put her hand on her chin in a thinking pose, "nine months huh... So he is able to eat mashed up food, and we are going to need to get a crib for him but not for much longer and..."
She stopped and looked at me because I had tears falling down from my eyes. "You... You really want to have us...". She hugged me with my brother squished in the middle. "Of course I do... Who wouldn't want to adopt such a cute girl like you and such a handsome little boy like him. I have always wanted children of my own so why not start now!"
She let go and I stared at her with tears in my eyes. I bowed to her very low to the ground so showing my gratitude and thanked her while she just laughed at me and told me to rise. "Thank you so much...Kaa-san!". Her eyes widen and she started to squeal saying I was the cutest thing that she has ever seen.
I blushed at her comment and looked down with embarrassment. Tou-san just stared at us with a small smile on his face but decided to break it off when he coughed into his hand. "I think that we should go get her some clothes, don't you think?". Kaa-san looked at me and saw the horrid that was my clothing and stood up with determination saying that we should go get clothes right now.
We stopped off at a clothing store and I looked around until I found an outfit that I liked. It was a light blue shirt with black shirts and knee high boots. I decided to keep my scarf around my neck because it was something from my mother. I found baby clothes and a crib for Caleb and then we were on our way. Before we left, we went to the store that I work at and told the lady I got adopted so I wasn't going to need to work there anymore
Once we got home, they showed me to the guest room because that is where I was going to be staying. We set up the crib then we put him firm to sleep. They gave me a pair of pajamas that Kushina used to wear as a child because it was exactly my size. Kushina gave me a big dinner because she said that I need to gain pounds.
Finally it was time for bed and I go gladly went to sleep with a smile on my face.
