Chapter Two

When I gained consciousness (if it could called that), I noticed I was in a dark space. Not a room because it didn't have any walls, ceiling or even a floor. I was just floating in mid-air. What is this place?

I was about to explore until a voice stopped me by saying, " I wouldn't do that if I were you."

I halted and glanced over at the Dumbledore impersonator.

"Why?"

"Oh, because I don't think you want your new mother have complications, do you?"

I gave him a blank gaze.

"Well I don't you want to die before you were even born do you?

I blinked at him, "….What?" I shook my head before he could answer.

"Where am I?"

"Why the womb of course," he cheerfully said. "How else are you going to be born."

I blinked at him, "The…. Womb?"

He smiled at me, "The womb are where babies are developed and eventually the baby comes out of the va-"

"STOP," I demanded as I pinched my nose in irritation and slight disgust.

"I know what it is and where babies are delivered from. I want to know why I'm here."

He continued giving me a amused smile, "why to be born of course."

I gazed at him with curiosity, "If I am to be reborn then why do I feel the same and have the same memories and knowledge from before?"

He hummed, "you have the same appearance because you haven't been born yet, so your consciousness believed you still to be Scarlett. As for your memories, some of them will fade and some of them will stay. As for your knowledge, skills and subjects learned from a previous life stays with that person. Always."

My eyes became inquisitive as I regarded the pseudo professor.

"So you're telling me that my ability to talk, walk, write, and every other human ability I've learned will follow me into this one? That everything I've learned from my prior life will follow?"

He smiled, "That is correct. You will learn everything at a much faster rate than your peers. You will be considered a prodigy."

At the last statement, the excitement dulled from my eyes and my face became emotionless.

That very title was what I was trying to run away from.Many kids and adults were considered that, what's the point of being good, no great at everything, if its not going to be acknowledged? What is the point if being great doesn't grant you the attention you crave? The moment when someone tells you how smart you are or how talented you are at such a young age? They smile at you as they encourage to learn other things or go a bit further and hug them and say how proud they are of you. No it's more of a burden than a gift in my eyes.

"Don't look so glum, Ms. Scarlett."

He stated as he broke me away from my thoughts. I gave him a blank gaze.

"I know you were disappointed by the lack of intellect and recognition from your previous life; but don't fret because this life will be much more interesting for you."

I continued to giving him a blank gaze.

"As I was saying being known as a prodigy will be good for you especially where you're going. Majority of the ninja clans expect the average child to learn the basics at the age of four.. If a child learns and comprehends everything before that age will be given that title."

"It doesn't sound very appealing to me." I grouches.

He only smiled, "What if I were to tell you that only a handful managed to snag that title."

My eyes began to have a competitive gleam as I regarded him, "then I would say I'm interested."

His smile widened as he put both arms in each robes sleeve.

"For your mission to succeed, I need you to beyond that title. In short I want you to excel at being a shinobi. I'm not going to lie, your journey is going to be dangerous. Although in your previous life killing and violence was prohibited, this life you are expected to kill multiple times. Do you think you have the mentality to kill another human being and not feel an ounce of remorse?"

I considered his question, my eyebrows furrowed in thought. Killing another human being prior to this never crossed my mind. I wouldn't consider myself a violent person, sure I get irritated, but never to the point of doing bodily harm to another human being. I mean if push came to shove and someone tried to harm or kill me, I wouldn't hesitate to get rid of the threat. But killing mutuel times needlessly and feeling no remorse, not even a little? I couldn't-

"Do it."

"Do what, Ms. Scarlett?" He asked knowingly.

"I couldn't kill another human being, especially without any emotion and to kill needlessly? No I couldn't." I shook my head in disgust.

"I'm glad," he stated with a smile.

All I could brilliantly answer was with, "huh?"

His smile grew, "I'm glad your upbringing rom previous life hasn't disrupted your way of thinking. Now you will have to kill mind you, but not very many and those who you eliminate are evil."

"How evil are we talking about here?" I asked skeptically.

"I'm talking about using living people as experiments evil. Giving in an order to annihilate a whole family due to selfish reasons evil. I'm talking about taking over the world evil."

I scrunched my nose, "that last bit seems a bit far-fetched."

"You say that now until you've witnessed it with your own eyes."

I gazed at his morose expression in speculation. What is evil, what is the definition and who said it to be true? Is a woman stealing supplies because she's without a job and she doesn't know how else to support her two month old child considered evil? Or what about the little boy is neglected and abused and the only thing he knows how to do is take from well off families to survive, is that little boy evil? Or what about the teenage boy or girl who gets constantly gets bullied because of how they look or dress or something equally petty. So they do something to end the suffering and they end up hurting the bully short of killing them, but would you consider them a adolescent killer? Would you call them evil? Being good and being evil aren't always black and white majority of the time its grey. Granted more often then not some cases aren't redeemable like that of Hitler or Ed Guin. But why should we condemn the abused woman who killed her husband to gain freedom from the abuse just to wind up in jail. Or what about the misunderstood man who had a rough childhood but was considered a freak. There's almost always a reason the way they are and majority of the time they can be healed. So why can't these unnamed people be the same way?

My gaze sharpened with determination and I said with conviction, "Alright I will do whatever it takes for this "evil" to be eliminated."

He clapped his hands in delight, "Oh wonderful Ms. Scarlett, I knew you would be the best candidate."

He probably assumes I'm gonna kill whoever he's speaking of but there are other ways to eliminate it and I'm going to do everything I can to make sure there's no blood spilt.

"It's time Ms. Scarlett, I wish you all the best and good luck on your upcoming endeavors." He stated with a secret smile.

I regarded him with curiosity. He wouldn't know what I planned would he? I shook my head to dislodge the thought. No that's impossible.

I was about to reply, but a painful sharp scream resounded around me.
