AN: It was a challenge, but I find it hard to believe that anyone but me could write this decently, not to sound arrogant or anything but everyone is so unyielding when it comes to branching out and what not.
Here's the first chapter.
Enjoy
Prologue
"Ya know when I was a child, all I could talk about was how awesome it would be to be a ninja, how great I'd grow up to be and how powerful and loved I'd eventually become."
"Now though I can see…my eyes are open to the truth. They have been for a long time , and I can honestly say that I've never been happier. Being a ninja…is a load of bullshit to me. I'm never going to be one and I'm never going to respect one. The arrogant fucks. I'm glad I chose a different path. I'm glad I'm not one of those many pricks who lord their power over regular people or use their illusions and special drugs to entrap women and brutalize young men. You think I'm bullshitting? I've witnessed it. Hell I've prevented more rapes than I can count. Everybody says Konoha is the epitome of pure ninjas and such. That's all horse shit. Konoha is no better than any other ninja village."
"No…I'm glad I chose the life of a civilian…"
A group of six traversed the road towards the outskirts of the Leaf Village near the abandoned Uchiha grounds, moving at a brisk pace. Their faces were a mired of emotions ranging from excitement to nervousness to downright annoyance. The leader of this group. A beautiful woman with huge breasts and a blond hair walked with a purpose in her step, her eyes focused on her destination. The pink haired woman beside her looked a tad nervous and the young woman with blank lavender eyes looked downright scared. The only man in the group looked annoyed for some reason, a cigarette placed lazily in his mouth and a woman with short black hair looked resigned and curious. The last woman, a woman with wild brown hair and red triangles on her cheeks looked the most excited.
She eyed the blonde woman.
"Tsunade-Sama," she began with a grin. "How much do you know about him? Ya know, besides the basics?"
Tsunade grunted. "Not much. Only what has been told to me and what little documents there are about him."
The pink haired girl spoke next. "I don't remember much about him either, only that he was a total idiot in the academy and that he suddenly dropped out after his second year."
The lavender eyed girl spoke up. "That's because…you all treated him so horribly." Her voice was quiet but one could still hear the light scolding in its tone.
The pink-Haired girl turned to give a light glare. "Pfft whatever you say Hinata-san. Perhaps your blind crush only made it seem far worse than it was."
The man shrugged. "No, it was bad," he said.
"Well no one asked you Shikamaru!"
"Calm down," Ordered Tsunade, making all three teens shut up in an instant. "It does not matter how he was treated in the past, what matters is what's going on right now."
They arrived at a wooden gate that looked like it had grown from the ground in that shape…almost like mokuton.
"Heh," muttered Tsunade eyeing the gate more intently for a second before she pushed it open. "We're here."
The six ninja all stepped into the grounds and made their way up the path and into the dense overgrowth of plants and trees. The further in they progressed the more apparent it became to the ninja that the plant life in this area was…far too healthy. In fact the sun light was nearly cut down to nothing the deeper they moved in, a thick canopy blocking any attempts at an aerial view.
"This place…is kind creepy," muttered the Pink haired girl.
"I agree," muttered the young man as he looked around. There was varying species of vines, growing up and over the trees, a thick carpet of leaves seemingly choking their hosts and leaves far larger than normal constantly brushing against their skin. There were countless flowers growing all over in varying displays of color and giant Venus flytraps could be seen further off to the side, waiting to ensnare and unfortunate victim. Huge black berry bushes and congregations of apple and pear trees were dotted randomly about and thick healthy green grass seemed to call for weary travelers.
"Wow this place is like a miniature jungle. Its very pretty here." muttered the short haired woman, speaking for the first time. She made sure to keep and extra grip on Tonton though as she recognized many plants that could and would devour the little pig. Hell she saw plants that LOOKED like they'd devour anything that got to close, plants she suddenly noted in her head that she'd never seen before. Her fascination grew as they continued to move forward, more and more plants becoming unrecognizable…like the gigantic flower that looked like…it had teeth?
"Okay I'm starting to get creped out as well," she muttered.
The woman with wild hair gave a hearty laugh. "Well you have a right to be. A lot of these plants reek of demonic chakra, be careful."
Everyone tensed. "What has he been up to?"
They marched at a careful place for what seemed like an eternity, the pink haired girl making it a point not to pay too much attention to the plants and trying to ignore the breathing a few of them were obviously doing. She was about ready to make a run for it when they finally emerged from that demonic looking forest and into a huge clearing where they all abruptly lost their breath.
It was a farm. Ten acres of absolutely beautiful farm land all teeming with fruits vegetables and flowers. Corn and pumpkins and sunflowers and strawberry bushes were all compacted neatly in one group while rows of apple, cherry, pear orange trees bathed the area in shade of orange, red, pink and yellow. They saw poles jammed into the ground and on those poles, large bushes of grapes grew, reaching as far as they could to the sun and raspberries grew all over the place.
And then there was the numerous unidentifiable fruits and vegetables that made up the other half of the farm. Huge human sized red pear-like fruits hung from thick branches on huge bushes, melons consisting of purple and pink seemed to glow and gigantic apple-like fruits rested on eth ground. And the flowers…
They were dotted randomly throughout the farm land, huge and bright orange, constantly secreting a yellow pollen that smelled wonderful. This place…was amazing.
And right in the middle of this was an average sized house. It was probably large enough to house three or four people.
The six ninja tore their awed gazes away from the farm to focus on the house.
There he was. Their target. He was seemingly asleep on the porch in a rocking chair, a straw hat rested over his face and muscular arms crossed over his chest. He was dressed in an orange T-shirt and dirty light blue overalls. Brown leather boots typically found in any farmer's household adorned his feet and a hoe and a Shovel rested at his side.
Immediately, two of the females blushed. Even from this distance he looked…well he was very good looking. Tsunade smirked.
"Lets go," she said, taking the lead and heading up to the house. Everyone nodded and they made their way up.
Some of the orange flowers actually moved. They swerved, their bright petals facing them…watching them as they got closer to the house. This was…incredibly unsettling.
As they got within thirty feet of the house, the farmer abruptly woke up, blue eyes instantly snapping open and focusing on them with an intensity that made everyone there flinch very slightly. The hat fell to the floor, revealing wild yellow spiky locks that seemed to glow in the sun. His eyes were confused at first, still waking up but they widened when they regain their full focus.
He stood, letting everyone know that he was tall. Nearing six feet tall in fact and he was very fit.
"Who are you?" he said. It was a question. A simple one.
Tsunade stepped forward. "So you are Uzumaki Naruto. I must say this is far from what I expected to see." She crossed her arms under her impressive bust and narrowed her eyes when he saw the young man's eyes trail up and down her body.
The farmer shrugged. "I guess," he began. "But you still haven't told me who you are or why you're here."
The pink haired girl looked like she wanted to say something but held herself back.
Tsunade gave raised an eyebrow. "You don't know? How odd. I am Senju Tsunade. I am the godaime Hokage."
The farmers eyes widened in shock and she smirked. "And these are important members of the different ninja ranks in the village. Tsume, a council member, Shikamaru, a respected Chunin, Hinata a Clan heiress and my two apprentices, Shizune and Sakura, heads of the medical department."
She took a step forward. "We are here to because you are in grave danger."
"Huh?"
She elaborated. "You are one of two remaining containers that has yet to be captured. They will come for you."
"Huh?"
She sighed. "Akastuki is getting too strong. They are a group of powerful mercenaries that have been hunting down and capturing the biju containers, extracting their demons and sealing them into a powerful weapon. You and the eight tailed Jinchuuriki are the only two left. To prevent your capture we must get you prepared."
He narrowed his eyes. "What are you saying?"
"We're here to recruit you into the ranks of ninja. We will train you so you are strong enough to defend yourself against the Akatsuki."
From his dumbstruck look they thought he was processing this in his brain before the implications dawned on him. They thought he was going to exploded with excited glee.
They were right about one thing. It did dawn on him. But when it did…
"Get the fuck out." His voice was full of so much loathing it made them all gasp.
Everyone froze in shock as his words echoed in their minds. Tsunade went numb from sheer incredulousness.
"What did you just say!?"
AN: And that's the prologue. Hope you like it.
