Legend: Chapter 1: Enter Airesu
By: GravediggersATL
This is my first fanfic. Instead of putting Naruto or one of his friends into the spotlight, this story follows a mysterious ninja, known as Airesu Karero. While Naruto and co may make a few brief appearances, our blue headed friend is the center of the story. Watch as she finds her way through life, which will eventually lead to the showdown between her and the ultimate evil. And without further adieu I give you:
The scene is a calm plain. Seemingly every thing is perfect. The grass sways in the wind, as the clouds drift calmly across the sky. Suddenly, there is a bright flash, followed by a brief explosion. The land is cleared of plants, and a golden haired woman is knocked back into a tree. Her opponent smiles, "Come now… You'll never beat me like that. If you're truly the last of your kind, then show me why they didn't deserve to die!" The golden haired woman stood slowly. She smiled briefly before charging again. They clash weapons again, and again.
"My name is Airesu Karero… I am the last of my kind, and am in a battle for my life. You are probably wondering how I got here… This… is my story!" Airesu and her opponent clashed again. A bright light flashes from their weapons and envelopes everything.

A tall woman wearing a cloak runs through the forest. Thorns and limbs tear and scratch at her legs and arms as she continues to run. From the shadows, creatures chase after her, chopping down trees along the way. The clouds swirl, and lightning falls, along with the rain. Pitter pattering on the ground as the woman runs. A pair of shadow creatures cut down the trees in front of her, and what seems to be their leader approaches. He looks like any normal human… but in his eyes are pure evil. He speaks, "Give me the child…I promise I will take care of her, and make… a powerful warrior… for evil." His evil grin can be seen under his mask.
The woman shouts back, "No! I won't let my daughter become a pawn of evil!" She holds the child tight. The creature holds his hand up. His hand splits, and falls off, and a sword grows from his arm.
He holds the sword to her throat, "I said… hand her over! I won't hesitate to kill you." The woman begins doing hand seals behind her back. Before the creature can respond the child is warped away. The creature holds his remaining hand up, and signals to the others. They jump on the mother, and begin eating her. The grotesque sounds of her flesh being ripped apart seemed to delight the leader, "This girl could be troublesome. She could very easily be the next one to inherit Zin's spirit. That crafty demon… She will not stand in my way anymore!" He turned, and disappeared into the shadows, along with his brethren.
Elsewhere, the young child fell out of a light. Several ninjas gathered around. She slowly opened her eyes, as a man approached, "They got to her didn't they." He turned to another ninja, "Scout the forest for my wife's remains. Then prepare for a burial…" He turned back to his young daughter, and picked her up. He slowly walked inside.
My first fanfic seems to be a success. Please R&R. This'll get much better as Airesu's story is revealed.
