The Elements of Life
Chapter two: the fall of the dragon.
Disclaimer: I do not own naruto or characters in any way shape or form. They belong to its creator. That and naruto himself belongs to hyuuga hinata…. now can I please be untied the ropes and really itchy
Hinata: no way. Not until you make naru-kun mine in your story
Me: fine fine…sheesh…scary
-------------------------------------------------
Author's notes: in case you didn't catch it, the recent disclaimer was a hint at later events. But moving on, not much to say really. Except that I enjoy the reviews and I'm getting new and better ideas every day. So keep watching out for my updates and what not. That and I'm not going to say which lady might steal Jin's heart. But naruto and hinata is going to be a definite, because if I don't a certain girl will strangle me. But anyways, on with the show.

" blah " think talk

Chapter two: the fall of the dragon" My name is Sorem Jin and if you will, I'll tell you about my village, and how it was destroyed tonight" Jin said with remorse in his voice. But as soon as he finished, he started coughing and hacking hard and spit up blood.
" Oh this is no good"
" Crap, what the heck do we do jiji-san?" asked a very nervous naruto
" Grab him up and then hold onto me, ill do a transportation jutsu to get us to the hospital fast" the hokage said already doing seals. Naruto quickly obeyed and grabbed up Jin and then grabbed a hold of the hokage. Just as he did the hokage finished the seals and they were gone from the house in a swirl of leaves and in the lobby of the hospital.
" Welcome to Konoha hosp… oh hello hokage-sama what bring you here?" the young receptionist asks, no seeing the boy slung over Naruto's shoulder.
" I'm sorry but this is an emergency, naruto, bring Jin around so that she may see" Sarutobi said and moved aside, letting the receptionist see the boy.
" Oh my, he's hurt badly, I'll call the doctor right away" She said and rushed around calling the doctors to get down for emergency treatment. In no time at all, Jin was put on a stretcher and brought into the ER (A/N Emergency room for those who don't know) for treatment.
-----------------------------------------------Time skip to the end of surgery ----------------------
" Hokage-sama, we have good news" A nurse said while walking out of the ER " The young boy you brought in will make a full recovery, he is very strong is awake right now as a matter of fact. He is lucky someone pre-treated him before he came otherwise it could have been much worse for him rather than just internal bleeding and deep cuts and wounds."
" Thank you, we will go see him now. Come along Naruto" He said and they both walked into the ER to see Jin awake and sitting in bed in a meditative position
" Hello Jin, I'm amazed at how you're up so fast after surgery"
" Hello hokage-sama and the kid that saved me" He said opening his eyes and looking at them.
" Kid...kid…I'm no Kid! I'm Uzumaki naruto and I'm going to be the Hokage someday!" Naruto yelled out
" Alright alright jeez, chill out Uzumaki-san" Jin said to try and calm him.
" Naruto calm down, now, Sorem-san will you please tell us your story. You were about to earlier but you started coughing up blood if you remember" The hokage said stepping into the conversation.
" Oh…yes…" He said, gaining a more serious tone. " I will tell you, but I must ask for the time being you must keep this a secret, both of you must swear to keep it secret." He looked them both in the eye
" I promise to keep it a secret. What about you old man? Can you keep it secret?" Naruto said, eager to learn something secret.
" Yes yes I promise" The hokage said smiling down at naruto but in his mind actually interested in learning of this tragedy that befell the boy.
" Well, as I said I came here from dragon village. A village deep within fire country a good distance from here. I'm not sure if we're on the map anymore since we cut off most communication to the outside world a long time ago." He said sitting up and swinging his legs over the side of the bed.
" Yes, I do remember the village and I kept contact with it. We were in good terms, your village and this one" The third said. " But continue with your story."
" Right, well, our village trained ninja even though we were never recognized as a hidden village but it didn't matter. Our ninja were only used for keeping the peace and for times of danger and invasion if it ever happened. The leader of our village, the ryuukage I guess, was my father and brother figure hayabusa ryu. I have lived in the village for a good portion of my life and we were peaceful, until a nuke-nin, karuka doku, decided to take revenge on us. It seemed he was exiled long before I came to live in the village.
He was banished due to him slaughtering many for pure enjoyment, a trait not welcomed when it is your own comrades you slaughter. He waited many years to take his revenge. Biding his time and gathering a force of other slaughterers like himself and criminals. He waited twenty years, tonight October 13, to strike us down. He waited until late into the night when the ninja guard was changing to strike. They launched a volley of fire arrows into the village, setting most of it ablaze, then his forces and himself charged and began the slaughter. They killed everyone and everything, women, children, the elderly, and my brother and father figures. I had two, ryu and another man named morinoto ginji. They along with the ninja forces put up a valiant fight against doku and his men. But they were outnumbered and eventually killed them all, leaving no one to protect the innocent. I begged to join in the fighting but my brothers forbid it. They told me and they would watch over me if they died and if they didn't we'd all go out for one of my favorite foods, ramen, once we beat back all the invaders. I knew they would die but I respected their wishes, giving them a hug even though it was unmanly of me, and I fled from the village knowing it was the last time I would see them. But I was attacked by a small band of the invaders on my way out. We fought and you saw the results, but I did win and finished off more of the invaders, hoping it would help my brothers. I then fled as fast as I could to any village I could get to. I ended running to Konoha and I ran into Uzumaki-san and well, you know what happened from there." He said finishing his story with a bowed head.
" Well I must say I am shocked to find out dragon village is gone and you're the only one left. I am even more saddened that ryu-kun is dead. I met him along time ago and trained him some when he came to the village to train and continue the relation of our villages." The hokage said and put a hand on Jin's shoulder. " Don't worry Jin-san, Everything will be ok. But for now you need to rest and tomorrow we will decide the next best plan of action." The hokage said and motioned for naruto to come with him. " Naruto I want you to come with me for the evening, just to make sure the villagers don't come after you again. "
" Hai jiji-san" Naruto said and went with him. But came back and said to Jin from the doorway. " Don't worry, jiji-san is real smart and will help you. Plus you got me as a friend, so you already have a place here." He said and left
Jin smiled a little then laid down looking up. " I hope I find a place for myself. I will and I will be happy again somehow, it's what my brothers would want." With that said to himself and the wind, he closed his eyes and let the embrace of sleep come to him.
