Chapter 13: Forbidden

Saga: Death and Rebirth

Rain came down hitting her back hard. Her clothes had been soaked in a matter of minutes, and no less was not, cold. Now her body was shaking, her eyes shifting from side to side in their sockets.

"Sonki? Are you watching?" Kisei asked her. His left hand was extended in front of his body, a kunai in the other hand. "You don't want to do this more than once a day. In fact I would highly suggest you to never do this more than once a day. Once you summon a dragon… That is the last summon you are permitted to do that day."

Sonki nodded her head, curiosity all over his face. What is he talking about?

Kisei shoved the kunai into the palm of his out stretched arm. Tearing it down his wrist and through his arm, stopping at his elbow. Fresh blood was flowing from the cut freely.

He dropped the kunai and then slammed his hand down on the ground. Water spraying all around him as black energy begun to make it's way around his body.

Huh… The ground… It's… It's shaking!? Sonki flung her arms out at her sides, trying to keep balance as the ground around Kisei begun to crack open.

Soon a hole around six feet by six feet appeared in front of him. A small black dragon was making its way out with a scroll it was dragging behind it.

"There you are Hito…" Kisei said as a small smile spread across his face. He sank to his knees and looked at the Dragon in the eyes. "I've got something for you."

"What is it?" Hito asked looking back up at Kisei. "What could you possibly have for me?"

"I have another student, who would like to sign your scroll," he ushered over to Sonki who stood still transfixed at the appearance of Hito. "She would like to summon Dragons."

"Does she…" Hito said grumpily, taking off the scroll and then rolling it out on the ground in front of Kisei. "She looks so weak… Quite, what use of signing a contract with us Dragons be to her? Can she even summon one of us?"

"She will summon Nidhogg," Kisei replied with a smirk on his face. "After all, I do expect great things from her." He looked over to Sonki who finally seemed to be recovering. "Come here, Sonki. Sign this."

She walked over to him.

"What do I sign it with?" Sonki asked, digging in her pockets for a pen or pencil that was not to be found.

"With your blood you silly girl," Hito replied. "I don't have time for this! Hurry it up!"

"Oh…" Sonki answered, she dug in her shurkein pouch and pulled out a kunai. She held it to her thumb and then made a small slice in it.

Red blood came oozing out. She bent down and then started to write her name out in Kanji.

"Thank you…" Hito rolled up the scroll and then slung it back across his back. "I hope to see you later in the future Kisei… But next time do not have someone so weak to sign a contract with us."

"Will be done," Kisei answered, still smiling.

The Dragon left through the hole in the ground. It covered up behind him.

"Well Sonki?" Kisei had begun standing up. "Would you like to give it a try? Summon a Dragon for me. If you can manage to summon one suitable enough to please me your training will have been completed."

Sonki nodded her head. "Yes."

The kunai still remained in her hand. Slowly she lifted it up to the palm of her other hand. Stabbing the center of her palm she slowly drug the kunai down her wrist and then down her arm, finally stopping just below her elbow as Kisei had done.

Blood was coming out in a free flow and pain washed over her face. She was starting to get dizzy. Too much blood was flowing out.

Unsteadily she slammed her hand on the ground. The same black energy seemed to engulf her body as well, the world around her become more and more hazy.

She's doing it… Kisei couldn't tear his eyes away from her. She's a lot stronger than I would have given her credit for. A lot more.

The ground begun to shake, she was flying around with it, though only just managing to keep her palm placed on the ground.

How… How long is this supposed to take?! Sonki screamed in her head. Slowly the ground started to split open. Though this time much, much larger.

The top of a black scaly head made its way into sight, shortly followed by the rest of its body.

Sonki drew her hand from the ground as the Dragon looked down at her, his red eyes piercing into hers.

"You have summoned me child?" the Dragon asked her, disbelief running high in his voice.

"Y…Yeah…" Sonki managed to whisper. Her energy was running low at this point. "I… I did. M-may I ask, your… name?"

"Anoyo," Anoyo replied.

She then fell to the ground limp. Out cold.

---------------------------------------

Sonki managed to open her eyes to a squint. She could still hear the rain beating down on the roof above her. She threw back the blanket that was laid over her and rubbed her head as she sat up.

"Damn headache…" Sonki sighed out. "Don't believe I passed out like that…"

Images of Anoyo flashed into her mind.

"You're awake?" Kisei asked standing in the doorway to the room she was staying in.

"Yeah…" Sonki answered standing up. She was no longer in wet clothes.

"You passed out…"

"I know… I'm sorry."

"Don't be. You summoned the dragon Anoyo. The Dragon of the Underworld. Be proud. I'm amazed that even on your first try you succeeded to summon a beast as powerful as him." He smiled at her. "He was surprised to. Though thoroughly disappointed that his summon was of no use, but to be summoned."

"Oh…" A dull look was still on her face. "What am I to do now? Is my training complete?"

"Yes… As I said, if you impressed me… Your training would be complete. And it has been done."

"Am I to leave now?"

"No. Leave tomorrow when this rain will have been hopefully cleared up."

"Yes…"

---------------------------------------

Sonki awoke the next morning to someone frantically shaking her awake. She could still hear the rain.

"What the…" Sonki said rubbing her eyes. Kisei would have never woken her up like this. She finally opened her eyes to find a blond, blue eyed Ninja starring back into hers.

"Damn you sleep like a log, I've been shaking you for the last couple of minutes!" Naruto growled at her. "Get up already! Me and Jiraiya are leaving soon!"

"Jiraiya?" Sonki asked yawning. "Who's he?"

"Ero Sennin! The pervert! Toad guy?! Ring any bells?" Naruto said standing up to cross his arms over his chest.

"Oh… Him," Sonki said folding up her futon and blanket she had previously been using. "What are you doing here anyway?"

"I don't know," Naruto said angrily. "He would tell me. All I know is that we're taking you back to the village pronto! Besides, have you already forgotten!? The final matches start tomorrow!"

"Oh, is it already that soon?" Sonki asked fitting in another yawn. "I would have missed them. I'd totally forgotten."

"Whatever," Naruto said exciting the room, Sonki following behind him. "Let's just go already…"

"Yeah…" Sonki said, now more confused than ever.

"There you are," Jiraiya said looking at her. "Took you long enough Naruto. Was waking her up to much of a task for you?"

"SHUT-IT ERO SENNIN!" Naruto screamed pointing a finger at him. "You try to wake someone who sleeps like the dead! It ain't easy!"

"Why are they here?" Sonki asked looking over to Kisei who was a few feet away from Jiraiya.

"I'm not exactly sure. They just showed up a few hours ago and demanded me to hand you over. I'm as confused as you are," Kisei said looking at Jiraiya suspiciously. "What would you want with Sonki?"

Jiraiya took a step towards Sonki, he was now standing behind her, his hands resting on her shoulders as she looked around uncomfortable.

"You've been teaching her forbidden arts," Jiraiya said, as though he was protecting her. "You have taught her to summon Dragons. Do you not see how old she is?! Do you not see how much danger you have placed her in?!"

"She is fine," Kisei said looking at him disgusted. "Do you not that I a Dragon Sennin would waste my time teaching someone to summon Dragons if I did not feel them worthy of it? Look at her! Surly you must know she will amount to something great!?"

"Even greatness will lead her to death," Jiraiya said. "She will surly die sooner than expected if she continues down this path. Dragons are not what you would call trustworthy. Such as the snake, as soon as they learn she is not powerful enough to control them they will devour her. Tear her apart. This technique has been disbanded from the Shinobi world for a reason!"

"But alas, not everything they say to you is always right. Disbanded it has been, but for good reasons? No."

"Did you even tell her what risk she would be placing on her life?"

Silence.

"You didn't did you. I bet you just told her that she would gain more power from this, didn't you!?"

More silence.

"What are you talking about? Risk? I don't understand," Sonki said speaking up for the first time.

Naruto was just as confused as she was.

"If you continue down the path you are currently taking… You will die. And I do not mean no subtitle, painless death Sonki."

"Will other Shinobi kill me?"

"Not Shinobi, what you summon will. Now that you have signed a contract with these Dragons they will be in control of your body. You will have physical movement yes, but mental no. They will try to take over your mind and slowly eat away at your Chakra. They will do this until the day you give in or die."

He let go of her shoulders and stepped away.

"You've made a grave mistake Sonki."

She didn't reply.

"That is why I am taking you to the Hokage. Hopefully he has at least some sort of power to deal with this, but I can't assure you that he does. In fact, I believe he doesn't. But indeed he does need to know this."

He opened the door and steeped into the rain outside.

"Naruto, come on. Sonki…"

She had her eyes placed upon the floor. All of this information just seemed to wild for her to comprehend at the moment. Death?

"I hope you choose to come too."

"Yes…"

She didn't even look up at Kisei as she exited through his front door. Closing it for the last time.

The downpour of the rain increased.

And any suggestions would do just as well. Again, I apologize for taking so long on the next chapter! They will be coming out at least once a week from now on!
