warning; love, violence, and things so wildly insane they will give you seizures or minor heart attacks.
disclaimer; I don't own Naruto, but everyone would love it if I did.:3
other; I'm near a hundred percent sure this entire thing is all originally my idea. If there are any ideas in different stories involving my ideas, without my credit to them, please tell me.
The soft click of my sandals against the barren streets of Konaha was all that echoed, the wind carrying its sound slightly further, as I swiftly walked down the barren path towards my apartment complex. A surprising blast of chilly, strong winds caused my long, raven-rosette hair to be blown backwards, practically dancing in the wind. My iced jade eyes flickered momentarily to the greenery beside me. I could tell something was slightly off, I wasn't sure what, but it definitely was making me uneasy. I stopped directly in front of the greenery, everything was deathly still. Something churned wildly in the pit of my stomach, and I let out a harsh, violent sound out. I bit at my lip momentarily, knowing the sound wasn't my fault in the slightest, it had just been simply just what I was. I shook that thought away from my mind for that moment, knowing very well that there could be someone hiding just hardly meters in front of me.
I closed my eyes momentarily, racking my brain with a plan. A small smirk planted itself on my face as I reopened my emerald eyes, just in time to see a shadowy image spring swiftly out of their hiding spot. Suddenly I was hit harshly, in a side I hadn't expected to be hit on, though. I let myself fall to the ground, the soft earth smearing against my skin. Immediately, I had disappeared from the trespasser, and was already closely behind him. Unfortunately, just as I was about to strike the raven-headed man, he turned a glowing orb in the palm of his hand, making thousands of chirping sounds. Chidori. Immediately, I grabbed hold of the Uchiha's wrist, and quickly cut off the chakra flow, causing the Chidori to immediately disappear from his hand.
A small noise of surprise escaped from his mouth, almost impossible to hear, but luckily I was able to catch it. In fear of who it was, knowing I couldn't take any chances, I let my chakra build inside of my system, and formed Chidori inside of me, deadly, yet invisible. The attacker just had to be touching me during the process. Thankfully, my hand was still clamped tightly around his wrist. With a small push inside of myself, I sent the Chidori flying throughout my body, and only a moment later I heard him hiss in pain, his pale wrist yanked away as he flew backwards to avoid a fatality. "What a pity. Even as my own daughter you won't defeat me."
My mind tried to wrap itself around the concept that my father had come back for me, just to destroy me. "Don't call me your daughter." I told him, my tone dangerously filled with irritation. The icy breeze picked up his sleek, long raven hair in the wind, the dark skies accenting his vibrant scarlet eyes menacingly. My wide eyes didn't leave his figure, less than a meter away from me.
It was only half a second later that I felt a strong force hit me directly on my diaphragm, and a gust of wind escaped from my mouth. I took in huge gulps of air, but I could never get enough in, like my body was rejecting it. My stomach felt as if it were internally burning, and I fell to the floor from the hideous pain. I glanced upwards to see the scarlet-eyed man lunging towards me to finish me off, but as I neared me, I managed to escape with a quick replacement jutsu, hiding in a clever spot, beneath the ground. I continued to try and catch my breath, but it seemed like I would never be able to inhale again. It felt as if there were a burning sensation in my stomach, but slowly, the horrible feeling began to fade away.
Finally, as I began to grow lightheaded, I managed to take in a large breath of oxygen. Finally I regained my sense of awareness, and stumbled to my feet. I closed my eyes in deep thought, wondering what I should do next. I had to have a plan, or I would most likely be killed. After a moment of thinking, I finally had an idea. Gathering a mixture of chakra and strength, I let that form into Chidori once again, coursing through my body at a rapid pace. Soon I had so much Chidori within me that a large blue glow was about me. Swiftly, I sprung into the air, breaking the earth above me. Luckily I had targeted precisely so I hit directly above Madara. I smirked, knowing he had been shocked, more harshly this time, with my Chidori.
Only moments later I felt him smash into my back. Ignoring the fierce pain, I did a back flip in mid-air, countering the attack and managing to land a kick on Madara, although he happened to catch my ankle. I gasped sharply as he rammed the back of my head against the earth. I felt my vision growing blurry as everything around me spun. I reached deep into the back of my thoughts, where I locked up my darkest secret. Only a short moment later, I reopened my brilliant, fierce golden eyes. All the small wounds that he had inflicted upon me from earlier began to heal themselves. Immediately, I fluidly bounced up to my feet, bursting with a new fire, causing Madara to shrink slightly. I hated using this, but it was the only chance of my survival.
A dark chuckle escaped his mouth. "Just as I expected." He hissed, smirking slightly. Though, it was obvious he was holding something back. I could tell he thought of me as stronger than he expected. My burning gaze studied him as he flew towards me, my reflexes now twice as fast as his with Sharingan, four times better without.
Perfectly timed, I swiped at him, a golden glow formed in my hand, which he narrowly avoided being hit with. My ears, hypersensitive, picked up something coming from my right side, from the forested area of Konaha. Just as I turned, I felt the harsh pressure of a needle hitting my directly in my jugular. That was all it took, and I fell to the floor, even in my second form, fighting to stay awake. I managed to see the person who had thrown the needle so perfectly was Kabuto, nearly all of him the remains of a hideously burned Orochimaru. "Thank you, Kabuto." Madara spoke, his deep, monotonous voice clear.
"It wasn't Kabuto," Orochimaru responded, "it was me." My eyes followed the figure of Kabuto and Orochimaru walk slowly towards my still figure. After a moment, Orochimaru spoke out again, "Your daughter has so much potential..." He almost hissed, though it was in a mischievous manner, like he planned to do something. "Of course, that is why I snuck into Konaha." He added, chuckling darkly. "I'm glad I caught you in time, before you killed her."
I saw the imagery around me growing blurry, but before I became completely unconscious, I remembered a hideous pressure against the side of my neck, and a hideous burning sensation afterwards, and then, nothing.
NOTE: This chapter wasn't too great for me, while I wrote this I was busy, and sick.:[
It was also pretty short too, I know. Don't worry, the chapters just get better as we go along here.:]
ALSO, I won't be able to get on... at all pretty much until maybe a little after Christmas. I got myself into some trouble. The only reason I was on to post this was because I was in the middle of doing a report. Your welcome.:D
