The world is dark, an icy fairytale of half forgotten hops and morals. I tried to find the stars as I sunk farther and farther down into the muddy sand, but there were none.
.
.
.
All alone I am.
.
.
.
I cry out for anyone who doesn't resent what I am, but instead I get a mouthful of the muddy sand surrounding me. I can breathe, but I wish I couldn't.
You did this to yourself; this is now your fate.
I would always recognize that voice.
You must continue what you have begun
The sand and mud surrounding me becomes hands, choking, clawing, and prodding at my bleeding skin. I am still sinking and can feel the pressure at m head.
But what fate do I follow.
And then I know nothing except the cruel hands of death and the sweet, sweet words of chaos.
.
.
.
Destruction
.
.
.
That is my fate…
"Lady Kyoki, Lady Kyoki, wake up!" I Shuffle in my bed, it's too early for this. "My Lady, you have training to attend to… unless you would like me to relay theat you have cancelled?"
I shoot up out of bed almost head butting Miya in the process. I run through the room getting ready at a speed that would make a kage proud.
I run out the door before doubling back, "Thanks Miya! Seeyoubye!" I say quickly. I can practically hear her exasperation from down the hallway.
Its only when I'm outside that I realize I forgot my shoes.
Oh well, I prefer being bare foot anyways…
Have fun chasing ninja and trying not to poke holes in your feet
I slow down a bit as I reach the garden where I assume we will be training, it wouldn't do to look out of breath before I've even done anything.
Then I hear splashing.
They wouldn't…
They're ninja, I can assure you, yes, yes they would.
I felt myself growl, picking up my pace I arrive at my favorite section of the garden, a large koi pond complete with a few red Japanese maples, birch, and willow trees, as well as a stunning variety of water plants in the water and surrounding it; creating a peaceful atmosphere- until now.
There is smoke coming from the reeds, Obito just set a birch tree on fire, Kakashi is Swimming in the koi pond, and Rin is trying to drown Kakashi apparently (which has a side effect of the ponds water (and the fish inside it) to end up outside of the pond), and what is Minato doing? He's flinging kunai around like wildflower seed trying to impale his students. Does it work? Now, but it does impale my already halfway destroyed trees.
.
.
.
"What the fuck!" I yell as I storm into the unsafe area. "you just destroyed my favorite section of the garden that I have kept alive for seven years." I hiss at them.
They all freeze.
"You will fix this or Kami help you all." None of them say a word.
"…Sorry?" all of them say together, I continue to glare at each one of them.
"Fix it."
0000
A few hours later my garden is slightly better; at least it will grow back… probably.
"Now, we will not be re destroying this part of my house, let's go to the lake shall we?" I suggest, walking off.
"There's a lake?" Obito asks, I glare at him
"If you had asked literally anyone except those merchants if there was a place to train around here, they would have told you that." Obito seemed to shrink at my words.
"I-I mean, of course, to the lake? Hehe…"
I shake my head.
The lake is large and half of it has long trailing algae long enough to nest at the top, in the middle there is a small island with a huge boulder on it; unlike the pebbly shore we stand the coast of the small island is sandy.
"Is this man made?" Minato asks and Rin nods her head, clearly wondering the same thing. While Kakashi doesn't say anything I can tell by his chakra that he's curious now that his sensei has asked.
"No, only the boulder, two of the ninja guarding us made it during a spar, but that was awhile ago, hence the corrosion. It was actually pretty cool to watch"
"Seems like a waste of chakra." Kakashi added.
I looked at him dead serious, "wow, it's amazing what you ninja can deduce by looking at an oversized rock, I hope one day a civilian such as myself will be capable of logic as good as yours. My hero…" I pretend to swoon; Kakashi glares while Obito bursts out laughing.
"Let's get started shall we?" Minato suggests.
All four of us nod and the three genin immediately get started with their training, I look hesitantly at Minato, "so should we get started on fuinjutsu sensei?" he shakes his head and smiles.
"Not yet, I want to know what you are capable of, lets spar." He drops into a fighting sense, "don't worry, I'll go easy on you."
You're in a genjutsu, break it.
So I do, only for Minato-sensei t be out of range.
Not out of sensing range though… can I use the summoning contract?
Absolutely not, you don't even have control over me. It would be a disaster if that happened, and while I like chaos, you would die, and therefore so would I.
Fine. I want to use my chakra then, give me access.
No.
Heizo, let me use my chakra!
Only for chakra manipulation, no jutsu, not yet.
Can I use some of yours?
A little bit, yes.
While part of me was annoyed that they didn't let me use chakra, I understood why, after all, if I used half of it they wouldn't be able to keep themselves attached to me; and that would be bad for all of us.
I create chakra strings and attach them to everything, creating an invisible spider's web.
There!
I send some of Heizos acidic chakra down the webs near sensei and can feel run into a few, then he's gone.
Behind you!
Leaping forwards I send all of my chakra webs sailing through the air towards where I can now sense him, hoping to slow him down, but he's to fast.
Suddenly, I can see the sky and feel the earth on my back. I try and roll up and away but multiple Kunai pin me down by my clothes
Heizo…
Alright, you get one attack, make it count.
I wait until Minato is close and then let my chakra disperse throughout the air around me, interlaced with Heizos, making the area dangerous and acidic to everyone but me. I hear sensei curse.
One point to me!
Two to him, you still can't get up.
"Damnit…" I can feel Heizo sucking our chakra back up and lay there until Minato-sensei releases me.
"Where did you learn to do that?" he asks as he helps pull me to my feet.
"a ninja never reveals their secrets." I say back smiling.
"I can't train you if I don't know, unless of course its clan jutsus…?"
"No…" I shrug, "the spider web thing is my version of saunas puppet strings, and the mist is just me infusing my chakra with Heizos and letting it go. I can manipulate my chakra really well, even when its not attached to my body," I form a floating ball of my chakra in front of us as an example, "but Heizo won't let me use it, for reasons I can't tell you, so I have to stuff like that the strings, where I can just reabsorb the chakra afterwards". I explain.
"Oh, who's Heizo?" he asks looking around confused.
"Their my demon." I explain.
"I'm assuming this is a clan thing?"
I nod.
"If you can't use chakra, why fuinjutsu? It's not just paper and ink you know. I could teach you taijutsu instead."
"I know," I say as I look at the sparing match on the lake, "but Heizo recommended it, so I'm assuming they will actually let me use it for that."
Minato gives me a funny look, "why are you referring to Heizo as multiple people, er, entities I guess."
I grin, because Heizo is one body with three heads." This makes Minato look slightly ill. "Of course, Heizo could be lying; it's just what they told me. I've never actually seen them, only heard."
"Well on that note, let's get started on fuinjutsu!" I exclaim as the subject matter Is clearly making Minato uncomfortable for some reason.
