Here we go... The first Chapter of my first fanfiction on

Sometime in the future...

Clang!* The metallic sound rung as the sound reverberated throughout the area. There stood two figures among the ruins of the Hokage Monuments. The blonde haired one was on a knee covered with scars and bruises, his headband fallen and laying on thr ground. A gentle breeze then kicked up.

"To think you'd become this strong... Kawaki" said the blonde haired fellow with blue eyes. He lifted his face to reveal a large scar on the left side of his face. "The Age of Ninja is over!" said the figure with the mohawk. He was streamlined with red tribals. "I'll send you where I sent the Seventh" he said adding more emphasis on 'seventh'.

"Even so..." the blonde replied retreiving the fallen headband. "I am still..." he continued as he tightened the headband. "A Ninja!" he exclaimed as he unsheathed his Katana and struck a battle position. Soon after, the same tribal marks that the youngman known as Kawaki had were now appearing on the blonde headed youngman. They then dashed towards each other at blinding speeds, ready to fight a battle that'll never be forgotten...

Present Time...

Boruto has just manifested his unknown seal. It is known as 'Karma'. It's abilities so far are to be able to absorb jutsu from a range.*

Boruto, Sarada and Mitsuki were on a mission to retrieve Konohamaru who hasn't reported back to Konoha for an A Ranked Mission. They had to fight one of Katasuke's old patients named Aodono who was out to thwart Konohamaru's mission. Aodono is assassinated after a long battle with Konohamaru by a masked guy who's battle skills and experience are frightening. He then paralyzes Konohamaru and seeing Konohamaru suffer and writhe in pain subsequently allowed Boruto to manifest a sacred power known as Karma. The man is stunned to think that the boy known as Boruto has obtained such a rare power. He then walks away without saying a word. Sarada tries to go after the masked man but Mitsuki restrains her with his arms. Boruto then collapses onto the dirt from exhaustion and overuse of chakra.

"Boruto!" exclaimed Sarada with worry in her voice. She then races over towards Boruto. She then places one of his arms around her neck and stands him up. "Are you OK?" says Sarada. "Yes... Arigato... Sarada" he replied. She then gives him a closed eyed smile and they prepare to walk. "The Mission is complete! Arigato gozaimasu for rescuing me! I was really in a bind. Let's return to Konohagakure, it's about 5 miles from where we are; so it'll take about 2 hours to get there without walking" the brown haired man continued. "Let's do this!" he exclaimed. "Hai!" the group chants.

They then began their long and rigorous walk back to Konohagakure. About halfway through, Boruto feels his strength return and his chakra begin to reaccumulate. He then tries to remove his arm from around her neck but she immediatley retaliates by catching his hand and giving him a stink eye.

"Listen up, don't do anything reckless" she says still not pulling her hand away. "But I'm fine already! I can walk on my own 'ttebasa" Boruto says finally able to break free from her grasp. "Didn't you just collapse as if you were dead!? It's even a miracle your even able to stand up right now. "No... It's really not a big deal..." he replied trailing off.

'For now, it certainly seems like nothing at all... But just what is that power...' Sarada thought as they continued to walk. Mitsuki then spots something and walks away from the group. "Oi, Mitsuki!" Boruto called to Mitsuki as they pursued the blue haired boy.

"Isn't that a puppet like the ones we fought at the blimp?" Boruto stated as he further inspected the scene.

"You're right. Why is it in a place like this" Sarada questions as she pondered in her mind. "The crash site is still a far ways ahead from here... Seems to be a different one and not the one we fought" Mitsuki states as he further investigated the puppet.

"So what are you saying... Do you mean someone else may have fought it?" Konohamaru infers. "Not sure but lets investigate" Mitsuki says dashing off ahead. Once he approaches it, he feels the temperature of the puppet. "It's frame is completely cool... that means it has been sitting here for quite some time" he says as he further inspects the damage on the puppet.

"Also it appears to be utterly destroyed... No matter what we tried, they were unyielding... but still..." he says trailing off. "So that means whoever did this has outrageous combat skills" Konohamaru says as he puts two and two together.

"Hey guys look! There are a lot of damaged puppets over here. They've literally been reduced to rubble" says Katasuke as he pointed over towards 7 fallen puppets. They all simultaneously glanced in the direction where he pointed. "Is it possible that someone with the 'cargo' escaped all the way here?" inferred Konohamaru as he said in deep thought.

"WOOF, WOOF!" barked a white haired dog as it appeared out of nowhere. It looked tired and appeared to be anxious about something. Boruto immediately recognized the dog with the prosthetic leg. "Chamaru! What's wrong" addressed Boruto as he analyzed the dog's expression. "WOOF-WOOF!" the dog said as it ran off onto a nearby hill. Boruto and the others follow the dog and reaches the peak of the hill. Boruto then observed the surrounding area. It was literally a vast wilderness with no trees in sight. The ground was uneven in someplaces but mostly flat. Boruto then looked down the slope of the hill and saw Chamaru next to a person. The person was laying next to a puppet that they had encountered before. As Boruto gazed upon the collapsed boy, he took in his features.

The boy was significantly taller than Boruto. He had blonde hair but his Mohawk was dyed black with near bald sides. He had no side burns and had pierced ears. He also had a symbol on his cheek that resembled a 'k' of some sort. He had a black and red vest and black jogging pants with standard ninja sandals and a white T-shirt. He also had two eyebrow rings in his right eyebrow. "It's someone who's... collapsed" Boruto said slowly observing him. "Did this guy defeat the puppets?" asked Sarada. "Judging from Chamaru's reaction, he is alive" stated Mitsuki. "WOOF WOOF!" the dog barked as if he had agreed.

"Wish hold up now gang. He's not wearing any kind of headband. He could be an ally or a foe. "Well in any case he's injured and even collapsed" Boruto protested as he leapt off of the hill. "Aye! Wait a second... Boruto" Konohamaru yelled out. Boruto then approaches the collapsed teen. "Oi! Are you OK?" asked Boruto as he kneeled down to him. He then notices his chest rising and falling. "Hang in there-" he paused as he noticed a black diamond shaped seal on his left hand. One thought ran across Boruto's mind.

'This guy... Has the same seal as me...?!' thought Boruto as he stared at the boy's seal.

"He must be very exhausted to fall unconscious like that... He's also suffered no serious injuries. Only some minor abrasions" stated Konohamaru as he examined the boy. "More over..." Konohamaru started as he looked at the boy's seal. "This is worrisome" he said reminiscing about what Boruto just done in the last battle. Sarada then saw what Konohamaru was talking about. "That seal... Who is this person" questions Sarada quietly. She then feels an unknown warmth in her cheeks.

"It's probably because the puppets all chased him here" Katasuke inferred. "But believing a boy like this can take down puppets of this caliber by himself means he's quite powerful" adds Katasuke. Suddenly, Boruto feels an extremely sharp pain in his palm and forearm. He also hears a sound in his eardrums that resembled a heart thump. "URGHHH!" Boruto exclaimed clutching his limb. "BORUTO!" they all said in unison trying to get his attention. Boruto only paid attention to this boy. He let out a soft but faint grunt as if him and Boruto's pain were a connection or link of some sort.

'...He also...felt that pain... It's as if we have a connection. Like destiny already formed a connection between us...' thought Boruto bewildered by this. Suddenly Konohamaru felt the boys chakra spike like a rocket.

"EVERYONE GET FAR AWAY FROM HIM RIGHT NOW!" he yelled out as the boys chakra began to compress itself despite him still being unconscious. Boruto and the others hesitated. "RIGHT NOW HURRY!" Konohamaru yelled once more. The eyes then shot open and he jumps to his feet. "DON'T TOUCH ME!!!!!" screams the boy as his compressed chakra was release and expanded creating a blast radius. The force of this chakra sent Boruto and the others hurtling in the air out of control. Tons of dust was sent up into the air.

They finally land and wait until the dust dissipates. "At any rate... There's no mistaking it. This guy definitely took down those puppets." says Konohamaru assured by his resolution. The dust then clears revealing a crater and the boy in the center radius of it. The boys expression then changes to one ready to flee.

"Who are you assholes? Are you pursuers from 'Kara'?" He assumed as his face turned from scared to violent when he said 'Kara'. "Pursuers... Wait we are-". "Boruto wait!" Konohamaru said as he cut him off. "Excuse him... I am Sarutobi Konohamaru" he says to the boy who only looked at him. "We are ninja from Konohagakure" says Konohamaru. "What do you Konoha Shinobi want from me?" he says to the group.

"We have no intentions of harming you! We are here for an investigation for a mission. We'd like to know your circumstances with the blimp" says Konohamaru defiantly. "What basis do I have for confiding that to you assholes?? I just want you to leave me alone!" He says preparing to walk away.

"Sorry but we cannot do that. According to our provisions, we must take guardianship over you. If you resist we will have to resort to using a bit of force" says Konohamaru sharply. The boy then smiles sarcastically. "...I get it already... Seems like you want to die!" He said getting ready to fight. "W-Wait up!" Boruto says intervening. "You know about this right?" He says showing his seal to the boy. "You have it on your left hand too right?" says Boruto. The boy's expression immediately changes from smug to shocked. "That's Karma!" He exclaimed. "...You...why do you have that?" says the boy.

"'Karma'" Mitsuki says to himself. "Well about this.." Boruto says as he observes his seal. "What the heck is this thing!?" Boruto exclaimed. "Quit screwing around!! Just as I thought, pursuers from 'Kara'" the lone boy said as he mugs them. "No! You're wrong about that" Boruto protested. "Please calm down and listen to what we have to say" begs Sarada. "I don't care what you assholes are or whatever your circumstances may be, if you wanna come for me go ahead! I'll turn the tables real quick!" The boy says coldly. Suddenly, a blast came out of nowhere in between the lone boy and the gang. "What!?" Boruto yelled startled by the sudden explosion. The boy's eyes immediately darted towards the direction in which it was fired.

"I'm sorry for intruding on such a busy time" says a voice just beyond a hill. They all turned to look. A figure then walks on top of the hill. "Allow me to recover you... precious vessel!" says the man as he held up what looked like a ninja tool that blasts chakra bullets. He was wearing a black jumpsuit, a utility belt, a chakra blaster on his right arm, metal knee guards, a fanny pack, a ripped up cape that covered his upper torso like a scarf and a mask that looked similar to a gas mask.

"Who's that" says Boruto as he observed the scary looking guy. "It's been one after another... Just what the heck is going on" says Sarada intimidated by the guy. "The asshole Garou has appeared" says the boy getting ready to fight. "So there's Konoha Shinobi huh? That means they're already in contact with the vessel hnn-hmm" the man chuckled as if taunting the Shinobi. "Seems like old man 'Ao' failed! What a disgrace to the 'Outers'" says the man known as Garou. "That seems like what Ao was talking about when he was searching the blimp for 'cargo'" states Konohamaru as he holds up a kunai.

"Assholes like you shouldn't keep treating me as an object! This time, I won't ask for forgiveness as I blow away your jaw!" the boy snarled at the man. "Don't try to look smart you empty headed bastard. Be obedient and I'll take you home gently" the man said sternly. Sarada then looks at the boy again. "Vessel? No way..." she said as she pondered about what the boy was capable of. "Regardless of how the situation goes, this is the aim of 'Kara': the 'vessel' seems to be this boy" Konohamaru points out.

"Of course I still have a grudge about my jaw but I won't kill ya!" Garou says as he rubs the mask covering his jaw. "However, it'll hurt as if you were DYING!!!" the man says maniacally. He then shot two chakra blasts at the boy.

The boy easily dodges them as they hit the ground where he once stood. The impact stirs up wind and causes Boruto to get slightly discombobulated. WOOSH! Mitsuki looks up from his position to see the boy moving so fast, it was hard to keep an eye on him. 'He's fast!' thought Mitsuki. The boy's arm then appears to morph into a sword like appendage. He swings it towards Garou but he swiftly counters it by trapping it between the three claws of the blaster.

They both then glare daggers at each other. "Just as I thought! You've been considerably weakened" says Garou smugly. "Your gonna be a simple task!" Garou taunts. "Don't make me laugh! My handicap is perfect for beating assholes like you" the boy says arrogantly. They both then escape the wedged position. The boy then extends his sword like appendage almost shooting it as if it was a harpoon. Garou easily dodges and sends two chakra blasts back. The boy dodges barely this time and counters by creating shuriken looking objects from his body stunning Katasuke. He then throws them at his opponent at a extremely high speed.

"How did he do that!?" Boruto says in awe. "This huge man is using merely a scientific ninja tool. But what the heck is up with that boy's body?" Katasuke says impressed. Then man then falls to the ground landing on his two feet. The man then notices the boy's hard breathing. "Your already out of breath? Bwahahah! Your power is steadily degenerating huh?" says Garou as his confidence was building by the second. The boy then gritted his teeth. "DAMN IT!!!" the boy screamed as he began to get desperate. His arm then morphed again and he flailed his arms towards the man.

The man catches a blind spot and slams the boy onto the ground. "Gwahh!" he yelled out in pain. "Gotcha mehehehehe!" the man laughs evilly. He then blasted him directly in the gut with his chakra blaster. The boy immediately lost consciousness. "Oh no!" Sarada said worriedly. "This isn't good" Konohamaru said. "You won't even die at this point!" says the man impressed with the boy's vitality. He then picks the boy up with the claws on his blaster. "Look how docile you are now" the man says as he lightly chuckles. "Had you obediently follow my orders before, you wouldn't have to go through such a painful experience" the man says. "That guy is going to take him away!" Boruto says as he rushes near the man. "Boruto wait up! The situation is getting overly complicated. Right now, we don't need to do anything recklessly" Konohamaru states.

"Even if you say that..." Boruto trails off. "Sensei" Sarada insisted. "The scope of the mission obviously makes it S-Ranked!! It's too dangerous! For now, the top priority is your lives!" Konohamaru states seriously. "But the boy..." Sarada trailed off. "It'd be troublesome if you woke up during the trip into a rage... Should I break your arms and legs?" Garou says as he thinks aloud. The boy's fingers then twitch. Boruto then felt that same sharp pain from earlier. "Urghh..." Boruto groans as he feels a huge flood of chakra flow into him. "Boruto" Sarada says as she approaches him. He then grabs his arm and sees the marks from before start to materialize. "Gyahh!" He says as the chakra begins to crackle around his palm.

'Again... Just like last time...' thought Sarada. The marks then stretched across his neck and up to his face. The man feels the huge chakra emitting from Boruto and turns to face him. "Hey! What's going on over there" he says. Little did he know, the same metamorphosis that Boruto was going through was now occurring on this boy. "Do you really have time to look away?" the boy says as he rips off his blaster like a piece of paper. "Oh no!" yells Garou. "OWWWWW!!!" he screams in pain. The boy then shows a killer intent in his eyes intimidating he bystanders. The tribal like marks were covering his entire left arm and red lighting like chakra was crackling throughout his body.

"Bastard! Where did you get that sort of power from!??" yelled Garou desperately. "It wasn't me... It was this guy... ...that's why I hate this!" the boy says as he slowly approaches the helpless man. "Guh! Don't come any closer!" yelled the man in fear. An unworldly high pitched sound was emitted from the boy and Boruto simultaneously as if they were linked. 'FWEEEEEEEEE'! Boruto looked down at his arm to see it was now glowing a tremendous blue and his chakra was beginning to intensify. 'FWEEEEEEEEEEEEE'! Boruto then looked over to the boy's arm and saw his was glowing a crimson red.

'What... Something... It feels like something is... Seeping in!?' Boruto thought as he continued to feel a rush of chakra course through him. The boy continues to walk towards him un-phased by his words. "Are you listening to me YETTTT? DAMN IT!!!" the man continued to yell desperately. He then fired a chakra blast with all the left over chakra he had left. It was a huge blast and it traveled at a high-speed towards the boy. The seemed not even phased by the huge projectile. He only lifted a single arm. 'FWISSSSSHHHHHHH!' The boy had completely absorbed the blast capturing everyone off guard. "He absorbed it!!! Its the same as when Boruto did it!" Mitsuki says in utter shock. He then pierced the man right through the stomach in one punch with his arm like appendage. "Woah! What a guy! He pierced all that armor in on shot!" said Konohamaru stunned by the boys combat abilities.

"Guh...ah..." the man stuttered. The man then falls to one knee trembling. The boy then grabs his head. "I warned you, I won't be saying sorry for your jaw this time around" says the boy. "W-WAIT! I'M BEGGING YOU! PLEASE STOP!" begs Garou. 'FWEEEEEEEEE'! "Your breath stink you pig-bastard!" says the boy as he fired the blast he stole at an even bigger size back. There then was a huge explosion decimating everything 100 meters in range. Boruto knew the wouldn't escape the radius in time so he absorbed just enough to keep his group safe. "Uwoahh!" Boruto yelled as he thrown back by the force. When the dust cleared, there lay the man's legs with no upper body intact with the boy standing beside it in a crater of destruction.

'Boruto... He absorbed that guy's attack and protected us!' thought Konohamaru. "You assholes, considering how you hinted about it; it doesn't seem like you don't know about Karma. Doesn't seem like you've mastered it well at all" says the boy. "I don't know what's It's about" says Boruto. "You irritate me! Properly listen to people sometimes" says Boruto. Suddenly, the boy's chakra dissipated and his tribal like marks dissipates. He then falls and slumps over on the ground. "Damn it!" he grunts as he grits his teeth. "This is what you'd call over heating. This child's body isn't like any other t. His body itself is like a combination of scientific ninja tools!" says Katasuke as he examines the boy's body. "What are you saying..." Konohamaru says.

"This is amazing! It's on par with the prosthetic hand of the 7th Hokage or even superior. All of his nervous system and blood vessels have been modified. And to think that there were scientists who possess this good of amount of technology! This body is already a work of art! He's mostly synthetic!" says Katasuke as he marveled at the boy's body. "Well no matter what I just can't leave things the way they are now. Let's take him back home with us" says Boruto. "Right!" says Konohamaru as he picked up the boy.
