Thank you everyone who has checked out the story so far! At the moment of typing I am at 6 follows, 1 review, and 1 favorite. Thank you!
I looked into who actually was in the second war and i'm a bit slow, I didn't realize that the Sannin were involved (facepalm). I also checked into the chimera person, Hiruku, and I could definitely involve him in some way.
Thank you very much for the suggestion.
This story will be in Akira's POV and will give a new detail that I will explain in the next chapter. This serves more as an understanding to who her brother is and how he will influence a few of her decisions. Just a short and sweet chapter.
This place is weird, a hospital Mom and Dad called it. I don't really like it here it smells really gross. Mom is gone and left me and Dad alone, Dad said today is the day I get to meet my sister so that's why Mom is gone.
I am going to be a big brother!
I told Mom to make my little sister come sooner but she said she can't. It sucked having to wait so long! But it's okay I'll see her soon and then I'll be the best biggest brother ever!
"Are you ready Akira-kun?" Dad asked as he rubbed at my back, I jumped out of my seat in joy.
"Well duh! Imma be a big brother! Will she look just like me? What's her name? When can we play? Otou-san does she like daifuku (Rice cake with red bean paste) too? How long do we have to wait? Can Oka-"
I would have rattled on further until Dad pressed his finger to my lips and let out a loud shh. I pouted and stepped back so I could talk but Dad did the same thing again, my brows creased in frustration.
"Akira-kun, will you quiet down a little please? We have to wait for your Okaa-san to find your imoto, after that we can see her. Afterwards we will find out everything you want to know, alright my son."
I stomped my foot to the ground as I crossed my arms, how long will Mom take? How did she even lose my sister? How does she even look like? Is she bigger than me or am I bigger? Does she like the same things I do? Dad patted the seat I sat on earlier and nudged his head in the direction. I gave another pout as I jumped into my seat to wait for my Mom and sister to appear. While we waited Dad started to tell another cool story about shinobi. This one was about a shinobi that could fight off everyone using only swords and protect princesses.
"-her smile radiated like a thousand suns, the shinobi was immediately drawn in. But then with a snap of a finger she turned into a horrible beast! The shinobi lunged forward and clashed swords with claws and fought the beast for many long hours before-"
"Kurosawa-san?" A weird person in green came up to us and stopped Dad in his story telling. How rude! I let out a whine in protest. Dad ruffled my hair as he asked the weird guy what he wanted.
"The birth was a success. You have a beautiful daughter, congratulations. When you are ready I can take you to her." Dad stood up and reached for my hand, a big smile on his face.
"Wonderful! Thank you for your service, doctor. Akira-kun, are you ready to see your Okaa-san and your imoto?"
Forget the story let's go! I nodded and gave my biggest smile I could, I can finally see her! We walked down the hallway till we came to a little room with high beds, I could see Mom from far away. I let go of Dad's hand and ran up to her, jumping to see what she was holding.
"Okaa-san where is my imoto?" Mom let out a laugh, what was so funny? She looks kind of sick now that I look at her, what is wrong? Dad scared me when he suddenly picked me up so I could see what Mom was holding. In her arms was a blanket and a weird fat face, who is that?
"Aki-chan, this is Chieri-chan, your imoto. Isn't she so beautiful?" Mom spoke really quietly, so this is my sister? This little fat thing that has pink skin? Dad wiped at his eyes before he bent down to place a kiss on Mom's head, I let out a ew sound before coming closer to see the little thing. The more I look at her the more I start to accept that this is my sister, Chieri.
Chieri-chan, what a perfect name for her.
"Why is she so tiny, Okaa-san?" They both shared a laugh before Dad pinched my cheek, his voice a little scratchy.
"You used to be just like her, Akira-kun. I remember I could fit you in the palm of my hand!"
"Haa?! You're lying! No way!" I yelled out in disbelief, looking back and forth between Chieri and myself. How was that even possible?!
Natural growth is how it is possible.
Chieri soon grew much bigger and bigger, I would always keep her company. Even if she can't talk to me I still feel like we are really close, it is my duty to protect my little sister at all costs! We play all the time together and make noises at each other and stuff, she's really cute you know? Mom and Dad tease me all the time for how I act with her, apparently I am protective or something.
I just like her that's it!
Then when she spoke her first words, I was so surprised. She was still very small and never spoke words before but then just like that when we were eating she said Mom and Dad. It has to be my doing I swear! I've been trying to teach Chieri how to speak since she came home, it has to be my doing!
I'm such a good big brother.
Then came walking, it was so scary! She almost fell so many times. Mom made it clear that Chieri is very weak and soft so I have to be super careful and slow with her, but if I don't press her how is she gonna learn?
"Come on Chi-chan! I got you just one more step you got this!" I cheered on as I held my hands out below her in case she was gonna tip over and fall. Chieri let out a grunt and took the last step before I pulled her into a big hug, she was progressing so quickly!
"Aki stap!" She whined out while trying to push me away with her cute little chubby arms.
"Never!" I declared as I started to tickle her sides, her loud laughs make me so happy.
Her laughs, her smiles, her glances, anything she does I feel so happy and so proud. Is this what it is like to be a brother?
It's so wonderful.
Then training started.
I was very worried about Chieri, she is still so small and delicate, can she really handle training? Mom and Dad started her super young on chakra stuff, she already was covering it when they told me about it, talk about unfair. But it's okay she's the littlest one so we have to make her extra happy, right? She was never mean about it or would show off or anything but I do feel a little angry. I am older so I should do things better and quicker than her so why can't I?
I let out a groan as the few sheets of paper fluttered to the floor. Chieri gave a look of sympathy while her sheets stayed in position perfectly fine. I shook my head and clenched my fist. I can't look weak in front of my dear little sister. I replaced the sheets of paper and refocused my chakra into them causing them to stick again. They lasted only a little bit longer before falling down again.
"Ugh why!" I whined out as I dropped my face into my palms.
"Sorry Akira-kun. Are you sure you want to do as many as I am?" Chieri spoke up. I looked at her and nodded enthusiastically while throwing a thumb up.
"Don't worry Chi-chan! I just want to make sure I can keep up with my cute imoto is all!" A frown came onto her features, one crossing onto my own in confusion. Did I say something to make her upset?
"You are not upset with my progress, Akira-kun?" She asked with a quiet voice, she looked so vulnerable. I waved my hands back and forth with my head before I tackled her to give her a big hug.
"Never! I would never get mad at you Chi-chan! 'Specially over something like this, no not at all I'm not mad Chi-chan! If anything I'm super proud of you, you're so smart and talented already Chi-chan. You're a sister I am proud to have." Her cheeks flushed in a red hue as she patted my back, an appreciative smile on her face.
I would never take it out on Chieri, no she is too precious and must be protected.
The question is can I protect her from the intensity of becoming a shinobi?
Probably not.
Things started off simple but soon were stepped up. Dad would work us to the ground with different exercises and spars, I don't get how Chieri could handle this at her age. Maybe it's because of how smart she is that she can handle anything, she really seems to know everything! Even things I don't know she knows and even big words and stuff, it's like shes a whole different person in Chieri's body or something! I don't think that's possible but Chieri will be Chieri, I will love and care for her no matter what.
Soon my time with her started to decrease as I had to attend school, I really didn't like it. I would tell Chieri everyday what happened in school when I did see her and teach her the different things we were taught. She picked up on everything I told her and remembered it so well, she was going to fly through school so easy when she starts!
Then before I knew it, Chieri had to start school too. I was nervous for her, will she remember everything I taught her when she takes her test? What if she fails because she gets nervous? My anxiety was very high until I saw her exit the building, she looked so relaxed and confident. According to her the test was child's play, all the material she knew already thanks to us. I gloated for quite some time to my friends about this, they didn't really believe me though. I was so offended that they thought I would lie about how smart Chieri is but she comforted me in saying that people just say things so they can make themselves feel better and that it wouldn't matter in the end, just my acknowledgement was enough.
She really is so smart and mature.
Then another boy came into the picture. Hatake Sakumo. Whenever I saw him with Chieri all I felt was anger, how dare he come close to my dear little Chieri? But Chieri always looks so happy whenever she is talking with him, she even is starting to spar differently and do little things different. He is influencing her too much for my liking.
"Chi-chan don't you think that you are getting too close to that Hatake boy?" I questioned with my arms crossed. Her brow lifted as a small frown sat on her face, oh why does she have to be upset?
"I feel that my progression for setting up a bond with Hatake Sakumo-kun is at a standard pace, Akira-kun. Does it agitate you that I am growing close to someone aside from the family?" I flushed for a moment for getting called out, wait bond?!
"Wha! What do you mean bond! You are getting too friendly with him!" Chieri shook her head and walked closer to place her hands on my shoulders, her face getting very close.
"Akira-kun, we are simply colleagues. Nothing of what your assumptions are flying to are occurring. He is very intelligent and skilled, wouldn't it be of high benefit to associate myself with someone like him?"
Nothing is happening she says, yet she gives him these praises? I don't believe her one bit, not at all. She is too mature for her age so who knows what she really thinking. I always warn her about him to take a step back to not get so close but she always brushes me away. She even had the nerve to invite him over.
"Akira-kun this is Hatake Sakumo-kun. Sakumo-kun this is my elder sibling Kurosawa Akira-kun." My brow twitched as I gave a strained smile.
"Pleasure Hatake-san." I spoke in a tight voice, my eyes narrowing as I studied him.
"It is nice to meet you, Akira-san. Chieri-chan has told me many things about you." Sakumo spoke as he extended his hand out for a shake. I gave an overly strong handshake in return, Sakumo's smile becoming a little strained in pain.
"Oh? What did my little Chi-chan talk about? Is it maybe that I am the best brother in the world who will protect her from everyone and anything? Hm?" I cupped my ear as I waited, Chieri let out a sigh from the side as she placed her fingers to her forehead.
"Chieri-chan mentioned that you are very caring and that you helped get her to where she is today. You are very important to her Akira-san." I froze in shock momentarily, a burning feeling rising in my chest. I looked at Chieri in joy as she stared at Sakumo, my wonderful sister! I jumped forward to give her a big hug, twisting back and forth as I rubbed my face onto hers.
"Chieri-chan! You're such a wonderful imoto you know that?"
"Akira-kun stop showing such affections it is rather embarrassing to be seen with!" She whined out as she pried herself out of my grasp.
"One day Chi-chan you will miss my open and abundant love!" I said as I wiped a fake tear away, her deadpan expression causing me to chuckle.
"Okay I'll leave you two alone, but remember I'll be watching alright? Alright Hatake-san?" I bumped his arm with my fist lightly, my eyes narrowing as my tone emphasized the unlisted threat. He let out a sound in acknowledgment.
Should he do anything to my dear sister he will suffer. True he may be innocent now but no one is trustworthy, no one at all.
Chieri will be safe and protected by me in whatever way I can manage.
And the chapter is done~~! What do you guys think? I tried to work with transitions while working in his aging personality. Also see guys I worked in Sakumo and she isn't evil yet, things are all good so far lol.
The next chapter will be in Chieri's POV, I just needed a way to develop her a little better while showing who her brother was. It will repeat a little bit of what was mentioned in this chapter for her progression sake but it will be much more detailed. Well sort of.
Thank you anyone who decides to read, favorite, or follow.
I will try to update when I get motivation, any opinions are always appreciated!
