R&R longer note at the end

DISCLAIMER: I don't own anything from Senran kagura

The tanned shinobi sighed as she stared into the orange flames of her camp fire it had been a few years since she had become a renegade, killing one of her clients after learning what they were truly up to. They had been using her to convince unsuspecting and vulnerable runaway girls back to their hide out, she would leave soon after the drop and not look back, it was weeks later she had been tasked with fetching yet another run away it was then she learned the truth.

She had happened to peer through an opening of the warehouse door at the docks, her eyes had widened with surprise and horror seeing the girl's she had brought barely moving as they were kept in cages. She had chosen then to do the right thing, she had helped her latest target escape, sending her to the police as she returned an anger burning inside of her as she attacked the warehouse freeing the captive girl's as she killed the group with no hesitation.

It was then her teacher had arrived one day, she had been informed that she was removed of her position of shinobi. Labelled as a renegade she entered a new battleground, every shinobi hunted her but she didn't mind she had learned everything has a price and now was her turn to pay up, slowly she threw dirt onto her camp fire choking its oxygen as she jumped up looking around after hearing the cracking of twigs.

From the darkness the figure of two women stepped into view, the tanned girl drew two of her six swords ready for a fight, the woman on the right was taller her long black hair following down her back, she wore a black dress that dropped to her ankles with black shoes. The woman next to her was a little shorter she had shoulder-length, pale green hair, her black sleeveless top was covered with a small orange jacket, her legs were covered by long white socks with black sandals.

Around her neck the tanned girl could make out the red scarf, at her side she was carrying a green bag, the two slowly approached not showing any signs of wishing to engage in combat.

"Greeting's renegade Homura" the taller woman said as she smirked looking the tanned girl up and down, her white t-shirt pulled tight against her large chest tucked into her ripped blue denim jeans "We should talk".

Homura pulled at the grey school skirt as she entered the large gates of Gessen academy, she looked at the map she had been given as she made her way towards the old school building to speak with the teacher in charge, as she walked there the flashback of that day at camp flooded her mind.

Homura continued to glare at the new comers talk she says? As if she would fall for a simple trick like that her senses knew better, this strange woman and her partner gave off the aura of fighters, the aura of shinobi.

"Talk? You expect me to buy that?" Homura yelled back as she raised her weapons higher, she could feel it their strength paled in comparison to hers, she could win this easily "I know you really want a fight, want me to drop my guard well it's not going to work".

"Fight?" The black haired stranger chuckled a sadistic smile on her lips "Fine then. Naraku, give the girl what she wants". The shorter of the two who Homura assumed was Naraku nodded as she stepped forward, she smiled as a large iron ball appeared chained to her left ankle.

"Underestimating me? Why not fight me yourself?" Homura taunted at the black haired girl whose sadistic smile grew as she stepped forward, the one called Naraku stood back her weapon disappearing as she bowed.

"My name is Kagura" The black haired woman said as Homura's eyes flashed a little, she knew that name but from where "I'll say this only once, you should have just accepted the fight with Naraku". The black haired woman's eyes turned a deeper shade of crimson as an aura appeared around her, Homura took a step back her hands and body shaking. Kagura, it was all flooding back to her now, the book she had read once in a library of the most powerful shinobi, she stared at her feeling the overwhelming power.

The slayer of all Yōma, her power unmatched by anyone or anything, Homura felt her weapons fall from her limp fingers clattering to the floor, she didn't stand a chance, she was dead for sure. For the first time in her life, Homura was afraid, Kagura smiled seeing the will to fight leave the cocky girl's body.

"I'm offering you a second chance" Kagura said as she calmed her power "Join a school called Gessen while there you will be classed as a transfer student, if you manage to survive just one full year there I'll see to it your renegade status is removed completely however should you leave the school at any point alone then your status of renegade will still stand and you will be a target. This will also happen should you fail to complete one full year".

"F-fine" Homura replied through numb lips, the fear still coursing through her veins like ice, she could only imagine what would have happened if she had fought this woman, one thing was for certain however. She would not survive.

She shook her head as she forced the flashback away looking around she found herself in the middle of the school field, she looked around seeing the main school building in the distance. Homura clenched her fists angry at herself, how could she get lost on her first day? Where was this place anyway?

"…lo? Hello?" Homura turned on her heel hearing someone talking to her as she knocked into a blue haired girl wearing the same uniform as her she fell over landing hard against the ground, Homura glared as she rubbed her lower back sitting up slightly how had she not felt this person's presence? Had she really been that distracted?

"What's the big idea sneaking up on me like that?" Homura asked aggressively as the girl looked confused, she offered her hand to Homura to help her up which she swatted away getting herself to her feet.

"I didn't sneak up, I saw you standing here and called out but you seemed lost in thought" The girl responded "I thought you might be lost so I was trying to get your attention to see if I could help". Homura looked the girl up and down, her blue hair was short just covering her ears, her grey school jacket hung slightly loose as her skirt hung low to her knees.

"I'm not lost I know exactly where I'm going" Homura said rather rudely turning her back to the girl, she's weak and naïve was her first thought as she continued walking hearing footsteps behind her she peered over her shoulder seeing the girl following her, she tried her best to ignore her as she continued walking quickening her pace a little.

"Stop following me" Homura said after a few moments turning on her heel to face the girl again her long black hair swinging behind her.

"I wasn't following you" the girl retorted her kind and caring tone never changing "It just happens we're going in the same direction, however calculating your route and knowing where this leads I can only assume you're the new shinobi who is joining our class?" Homura's eyes widened at the comment, this girl is a shinobi? This plain, naïve, weakling was the same as her? Homura smirked as she looked around seeing no one around as she drew her swords.

"If you're really a shinobi then prove it" Homura said with a rather aggressive smile on her face her eyes burning intensely "Fight me". The blue haired girl looked at Homura, the burning murderous intent behind her eyes, that aggressive smile, this girl was not going to back down.

"Fine" the girl said sighing as she looked at the girl in front of her "My name is Yozakura you would be?"

"Homura" Homura replied as she pointed her sword toward the girl named Yozakura "Not that it matters to you since I'll end you right here".

"Not here" Yozakura said as she made her way past Homura "Follow me, we have a training hall we can fight there. At least then we won't run the risk of being seen".

I like Homura so I had the idea of what if the legendary shinobi herself Kagura was able to over turn her rank of Renegade? As with everything there is a a catch, Homura must attend Gessen and work as a good shinobi, if she can last a year then she will have her renegade status revoked but this is Homura we are talking about. So join me on this journey as Homura tries her best to stick with the pan to remove her renegade status and of course cause a little trouble along the way
