Symone: A Naruto Side-Story - "The Heart Of Rain"

Chapter Eight: Debut! The First & Final!

From the shadows in the Hidden Grass, two foes appeared before the undeniable beauty Symone and her stern, handsome Sensei Mikomi. Their names were Hakumaru and Gita, Hidden Rock village ninjutsu spies who were seeking the power of a secret chakra amplifying gem known as the Chikarajiman(Boasting of Strength) to assumingly return to their village with unknown intent. What will become of this showdown of four?

A beauty grown from a harmed child, branched from her master; an eligible choice for a Father figure now in her life - Symone of the Rain holds faithful strength in her being and her soul, enigmatically believing in such dominance over her curse of the past, though is it enough to sustain her image as a shinobi of the world as she faces opponents which might possibly harness skills that go beyond ordinary? She feels her heart racing. Can she kill? Can she withdraw hesitation? The clouds begin to cry again like the night before as Symone and Mikomi stand side-to-side as they face off towards Gita. Hakumaru watches on...

Author Note: Computer troubles and a new High Speed connection(Oh God the Anime I've been downloading has been insane!) has made me delay this Chapter for quite a while! Chapter Eight is here though, and it's to be a good one! Now, let's just get ourselves started on a whole new journey in the story. A journey I've been waiting to write about for so long now! Here it is! "Debut! The First & Final!"

"Gita, was it?" asked Mikomi as he looked to the mustached man. "Hmm?" sighed Gita. "I'll tell you what. Since your friend Hakumaru over there doesn't seem to want to fight, then how about I stay out of this one" said Mikomi as Symone looks to him shocked. "What? But... But Mikomi-Sensei!" she yelled. "Don't worry. It'll be easy Symone. Trust me" replied Mikomi as he nods his head to her, winking his gorgeous green eyes at her. Symone then felt at ease. A weight has been lifted from within her. Confidence built up in her as she slowly formed a smirk upon those vibrant lips. "Alright then" said Symone. "I see you'd like me to kill this girl, huh? Well, well... what a terrible Sensei you are. Maybe after I kill her, I'll co-!" Gita had been saying as suddenly he had been interrupted by a kunai that seemed to be sticking out of his shoulder! Symone had thrown that kunai as she readied yet another... holding a shuriken in her opposite hand. "Why you! You little bitch!" Gita yelled as he charges at Symone with a high speed. "That was so fast. Gita didn't even respond to the kunai in his shoulder until 2 seconds after it penetrated. Such incredible speed this girl has" thought Hakumaru as he stood back, watching. Symone jumps up and does a 180 degree turn, landing on one knee behind the charging Gita. Gita stops quickly, picking up mud from the ground with his boots. He quickly turns around. Gita's eyes widen sharply as he realizes it's too late to dodge an oncoming Symone as she leaped towards him. Symone sends a strikingly devastating kick to the side of Gita's head. Gita gets knocked to his right, skidding his chin along the muddy ground a few feet as blood pours from his lips. Symone jumps back a bit, standing firmly, looking towards Gita as the rain gently drips down the tip of her nose, dropping to the ground as she flips back her wet bangs. Gita stands up, wobbling a bit as he shakes his head side-to-side. "You... YOU! YOU FUCKING WHORE!" yelled Gita as he charged at Symone again. Symone looked to Gita with her eyes glaring him down with a deadly intent. She hurls her kunai and shuriken at the same time towards Gita, but Gita dodges side-to-side away from them. "Suraidingo Daichi No Iwa No Jutsu!(Sliding Ground of Rock Technique!)" yelled Gita as he formed a seal, completing it. Symone feels rumbling on the ground as she jumps up, watching a giant mudslide of rock from the ground swarm a path to where she was as she lands on a tree branch. Suddenly, the rock slide begins launching pieces of the ground up at Symone at such high speeds. Symone widens her eyes as she gets hit by a few chunks of rock and dirt as she falls off from the tree branch. "Now you'll die!" yelled Gita as he then moved his palm forward, engulfing Symone in mid-air with a hovering mudslide that seemed to drag her down a nearby hill. Gita watches on as suddenly, Symones body transforms in to a boulder. Gita looks up with widened eyes in shock as a voice from behind him is heard. "It's Kawarimi No Jutsu(Replacement Technique)... A simple Jutsu for someone with speed. Now... You die!" yelled Symone as she firmly holds a kunai to Gita's throat. "Shit!" Gita yells, realizing he has been trapped by a 16 year old girl. Symone smirks. Mikomi is then seen smiling as he stands with his arms crossed along his chest. Quickly, Symone goes flying back as blood spurts from her lips. Her eyes closed as she lands on the ground not knowing what happened. Hakumaru appears behind Gita, standing back-to-back with him as he speaks. "Gita. You failed. What if you were dispatched alone? Would you fail this easily? I'm sorry, but it's time you rest" he said as Gita's eyes open widely. "B-But!... Hakuma-!" Gita had said as he is interrupted. His eyes roll in the back of his head as Hakumaru pierces the chest of Gita with a katana he had to his side. He stuck the katana through as his back was still turned. He then turns around, changing the hand he had been holding the katana with. He smirks insidiously as he shoves Gita off of his blade, dropping him on the floor dead with his eyes and mouth opened. Hakumaru turns around. Mikomi appeared next to Symone, helping her up. Symone shakes off the pain as she stands to Mikomi's side. "Killing your own partner? Now I know you don't wish to have the Chikarajiman for a justified reason" said Mikomi. "Actually... I wish to obtain it to fight the rebels in the Hidden Rock. They're becoming too powerful and dangerous and the patriots of the Government I love is having some difficulty keeping strong. If I had this power... I know I can help and put those bastard rebels to sleep!" said Hakumaru. "Oh? Is that the story, huh?" said Mikomi as Hakumaru nods with a grunt in his throat. "Well... I see you enjoy fighting for an intolerable Government surrounded around executions that are unjust. A Government that has been focused around slave camps and experiments on ninja. Such a Government shouldn't exist. Such a mentality as yours shouldn't exist either. I hate these political chats, but you and your fucked up haircut seriously stomped a nerve" said Mikomi with a stubborn attitude as he smirks with angst. Mikomi looks to Symone. "I'll kill this guy..." Mikomi had said, staring into Symones eyes. Symone had turned away, looking towards Hakumaru. "No... I want to fight!" yelled Symone. Mikomi looks to her curiously, seeing she is slightly injured. "Symone... I don't kn-" Mikomi had said as he was cut out by his students voice. "No! You don't understand! I'll fight him!" yelled Symone. Mikomi looks away. "Fine. Fine. Go ahead. I'm jumping in if you have a problem though" said Mikomi as Symone replies, "Alright!". Symone tilts her head downwards, narrowing her eyes towards Hakumaru. "Your Sensei is making a mistake letting you fight me. You're gonna get hurt" said Hakumaru. Symone yells, "I DON'T CARE! I'm old enough to finish things myself. You interrupted the fight I could of won... so now I have to take my revenge on you for that!". Hakumaru smirks, closing his eyes as he tilts his head to the side. Suddenly, Hakumaru charges forward towards Symone wide-eyed, smiling with a fierce and deadly intent. Symone jumps backs a bit, hurling a few shuriken from her side at him. Hakumaru slaps them away with a kunai he had just discarded. Hakumaru throws the kunai at Symone as she flings it away with her hand as she dodges to the ground. Hakumaru rushes to Symone as she flips back up, sending a kick towards Hakumaru's thick-boned chin, sending him back a bit. Hakumaru shakes it off as he rushes forward again. Symone runs forward as well. Symone sends a punch towards the head of Hakumaru, but he had dodged it. Symone then sends a knee to his gut, impacting him with an intense power. She then tries to throw another fist at him, but she missed yet again as Hakumaru slaps her away by the wrist, delivering a massive side-kick to the forehead of Symone. Symone screams a little as her head gets sliced up. Blood pours from her wound. Symone then spins 540 degrees in the air as she had jumped, twirling a needle she had hidden in her belted bandages at Hakumaru as it lands in his right wrist. She then lands down, hammering her feet on Hakumaru's left wrist, cracking it as she lands back on the ground, kicking herself up. Hakumaru staggers back. "Shit! This bitch... she made it so I couldn't use any hand seals!" thought Hakumaru. Hakumaru then begins to gently laugh, becoming loud. "Laughing during battle like you have something hidden is such a fucking clichè! Just do what you have to do! This is about fighting! Not games!" yelled Symone. "Well, well... You'd be correct. I do have something hidden. I'll stop this clichè of mine and just come out and kill you then!" yelled Hakumaru as he charges at Symone. Mikomi watches on, curious as to what Hakumaru has planned. Hakumaru cups the hand that has the needle in it as it's the only one he can barely move. Chakra forms in his hand as his eyes begin to boil red. His dangerous smile piercing the soul of Symone as he gets closer. "Assaiki Bakuhatsu!(Crusher Explosion!)" yelled Hakumaru as he laughs, leaping in the air at Symone. Symone's eyes become shocked. Hakumaru throws his hand forward, impacting Symone with his jutsu as smoke overtakes the two. The smoke clears as they are both seen. Symone had used her bloodline-limit to stop the attack by forming a shield of ice that emitted from her elbow to her wrist. Hakumaru jumps back, screaming in pain as his wrist had cracked on impact with the ice. "Shit! What the fuck are you? A monster?" yelled Hakumaru as Symone walks forward, admitting the ice back in to her arm as her steps are slow and steady as she speaks. "A monster you say? I thought I was once... but now I know... I know that I'm just Aisu Symone" she had said, stopping in front of Hakumaru. Hakumaru screams, sending multiple kicks at Symone as she stands still, blocking the attacks with the ice from her body as it emits like a shield, re-entering her body afterwords. Hakumaru falls back. He pulls out a kunai and quickly embeds an explosive tag on it behind his back so Symone can't see. Symone smirks as she holds her arm out, ready to strike him as he flings the kunai in the ground by Symones feet. Symone looks down as her eyes widen. An explosive white light takes over every ones sight as a scream is heard from Symones mouth. As the light vanishes, Mikomi is seen covering Symone on the ground with his body and trench coat. Mikomi stands as Symone looks to him. "I... could of won..." said Symone as she passes out, bleeding from the mouth and head. Mikomi smiles as he looks to Symone. "You certainly did good... kiddo" thought Mikomi as he turns to Hakumaru. "Instead of letting me suffer... why not just get it over with and kill me?" said Hakumaru, also taking a bit of damage from the explosive tag he had used to attack Symone. "Hakumaru... killing isn't something I enjoy. If you are able to, I suggest you leave now. Don't come back on Grass soil, and go pig out like a bitch to your patriotic assholes. If anyone else wants to come, have them be aware that they will die" said Mikomi. Hakumaru struggles up, looking to Mikomi with one last glance as suddenly... he runs off. Mikomi lets out a deep breath as he looks up at the raining sky. "Thank goodness... I thought I'd have to kill. I'll do anything to avoid killing someone" Mikomi thinks as he looks to Symone and smiles.

A few hours later, sunny skies seemed to have returned as Symone is seen waking on her sleeping bag. Confused, she gets up and looks around. Remembering she was in battle, she jumps up quickly as a hand grabs onto Symones shoulder. She turns around sharply with the intent to kill until she realizes it was her Sensei. Mikomi smiles. "You did great, Symone. You truly have become a ninja" said Mikomi. Symone then smiles after the entire ordeal had just blown her by as if it were just another day... but she knows it wasn't. She seen a man die, and shed that same shade of red as always. Symone see's it as something so meaningless, though she continues doing it, for it is the only way she feels she can protect and become stronger. Symone walks to a lit fire as Mikomi follows. "There's some fish to your side" said Mikomi as Symone sat down on the log by the flames, adjusting the bandage that seemed to be wrapped around her injured forehead. "Okay" said Symone in response as Mikomi sits next to her. They both grab twigs and stab the fish, roasting them over the flames.

Symone had been on missions before, and has apparently shed her share of blood, but today was unlike any other mission. She seen her first death, and yet she continues on like any other day, sitting by the fire, eating side-by-side with her Sensei who loves her dearly. This was just the starting point in a story where adventure will become more eligible than ever before. We've seen the power of Symone, and now we watch her progress and grow even further... as a kunoichi...
