Chapter 3: A New Home and a New Life

They had been running for days now and were getting very tired very fast. It had been a couple of hours before they saw what looked to be a giant gate with a sign of fire above the door. They had started to slow down once they got closer to the gate but Ariel was starting to have trouble keeping up because she had been awake for three days because while the other two slept she had stayed awake to keep a barrier up around them to hide their presence when they had stopped to rest and eat. But now it was starting to take its toll on Ariel and Erika and Taylar were starting to help Ariel keep up. Taylar had Ariel's right arm over her should while Erika did the same with Ariel's left arm and they were almost dragging her. Once they got close enough the guards noticed them and ran out to help them.

At the Hospital

Ariel was in a hospital bed with Taylar on her right with her head resting on the bed with her arms crossed under her head and Erika on her left was using her hand to keep her head up will she rested. That was what she woke up to and looked around her room and she didn't like what she saw. All white and she never really liked hospitals. She herd someone outside the door walking down the hall and stopping right in front of the door to her room. As the door opened Taylar and Erika started to wake up from their long nap and in stepped in an old man who was wearing a white cloak and a white hat with a red triangle on the front that had the sign for fire and it had drapes or a large piece of cloth on the back to keep the sun from hitting the back of his neck.

"Ahhh, I see that you are awake. You gave us quiet a scare there."

"Who are you and where are we?"

"I am Lord Hokage and you are in the village of Konohagakure or also known as the Leaf Village. This is also a ninja village."

"A ninja village?"

"You have never heard of a ninja village?"

"No not where we are from there are no ninja villages or ninjas for that matter."

"Really?"

"Yes and we would like it if we could talk somewhere more private."

"Sure."

They all got up and exited the room and followed the Hokage to his office. There were people there who wore mask and strange black outfits.

"What would you like to talk about?"

"Well…we really are not from this world."

"Go on,"

"Before we came here we weren't this age. I was 14 and Taylar and Erica were 15. We lived in a world where it was a normal routine kind of life, we went to school, did our jobs, and did our work. But a couple of weeks ago something happen to us and it changed our lives forever. We all were give powers but we didn't now why."

"What are these powers?"

"We were all given different powers but some of the powers that we received were the same. Like we all received powers in super strength, speed, knowledge on every weapon and how to use them, and we were all given photographic memory. But I was given powers over fire, water/ice, earth/sand, wind, and lightning/thunder, I also received miko powers and I am able to memorize everything that I hear. Taylar has control over darkness, shadows, and night itself, and she was a telepath. Erika has control over light, animals, and day itself, and she has telekinesis. Because of these powers our family and friends left us because they were afraid of our powers. But…my father killed my mother after I received these powers but I couldn't do anything."

"Hmmm…that is a very interesting story…but can you prove it?"

"Sure."

Ariel hold up her hand, palm up, almost like she was holding a ball. All of a sudden light started to come from her hand and you could see that a ball of fire was starting to form in her hand and it looked like she wasn't even trying, as if she had done all her life. The Hokage nodded.

"Have you ever heard of two people by the names of Kabuto and Orochimaru?"

"Yes…how did you hear those names?"

"They were the reason why we are here in this world and not in our own. When we were walking home from school weird signs appeared below us and then a giant hole which we fell through. The next thing we know we wake up in a cell, chain to the wall with them in front of the door and I did not like the way Orochimaru looked at me."

"How did you escape?"

"When Taylar and Erika came through I told Taylar to get us out of there. By using shadows she can travel anywhere and she can take anyone in there. That was when we noticed the age change." (Ariel was the one who was talking to the Hokage. Taylar rarely talks, the only time she talks the most is in Ariel and Erika's head and Erika talks when Ariel dose not want to talk for certain reasons and Erika is the one who talks the most to other people unless Ariel trust the person they are talking to or around.)

"Would you like to become ninjas?"

The girls looked at each other and then nodded their heads. The Hokage then nodded his head.

"Alright then, since none of you know the way of the ninjas I will teach you and then once you were done with your training you will then go on missions of different difficulty. Alright?"

"Hai,"

"Then I will show you to your home."

The Hokage then got up from behind his desk and then guided the girls out of the building and through the town until he got to an apartment complex. When he stopped he handed each of the girls a set of keys that went to their apartment.

"Your home is on the top floor and the number is 35. Hope you like it."

The apartment was a nice, it looked normal. Everything looked to be in fine working order. When they reached their new home Ariel opened the door. There was one room that you first walk into, where the kitchen, dinning, and living room was, there was a hall way that split between the living room and the dinning room that led to the bathroom and a bedroom. In the bedroom there was a closet that held three mattress, blankets, and pillows, there was also a dresser and another closet that was smaller than the other one that was holding the bedding. The bathroom was small but big enough to be shared by three girls. The front room was small but would do for now, there was a TV and a small coffee table out in the living room, there was a dinning table with four chairs, the kitchen was small but would do when cooking there was more room to move around but less appliances.

It was late so the girls decided to hit the hay and get some rest for their first day of ninja training.
