Chapter 2
The girl slowly opened her eyes to the painfully white walls that surrounded her. She couldn't understand why everything hurt so much wasn't this supposed to be heaven? If it was where were her parents and why was there so much pain? Then slowly quiet voices started to register in her head.
"Poor girl, they said when they found her she was covered in so much blood they couldn't even tell the color of her hair, I wonder what happened to her," one of the quiet voices said.
"I don't know, but when they brought her in here almost all of her muscles were pushed to there limit, over half of them were pulled and both her ankles were severely sprained, she will probably wake up soon but she is going to be in a fair amount of pain." This voice was softer, but was colder.
Shivering she realized she hadn't made it to heaven just to the gates of some town and now was stuck in a hospital. She tried not to think about what happened before she blacked out instead she focused on the ceiling in hopes that the whiteness would make her forget everything.
"Ohhh, your awake I'll get you something to eat then some people would like to talk to you okay?" said the kinder voice.
The girl only nodded in response but that was all the nurse needed.
A slight distance away a young boy was ruthlessly throwing his kunai at his target, a small pole. His classmates stared at him in wonder while cheering him on in excitement. He was the best, the one to beat, 8 out of 10 of his kunai had been perfect the highest in the class of five year olds. He didn't look around or let people know he heard there compliments instead he picked up his weapons and walked back to his spot in line not looking at anyone.
He reminded himself that while he was still the best he was not perfect and therefore should not be happy with his efforts, he would need to practice more.
After school he walked home he wouldn't stop and play with the other kids, no he had to practice to be the best. When he entered his room he immediately grabbed his weapons and went to the training ring in the estate to practice. Unfortunately someone was already there.
His younger cousin and her father were there practicing, for god knows how long. He stood there watching as the emotions he had become accustomed to swept over him anger, hate, but most of all jealousy. What the young girl had she didn't realize he wanted it. Not only was she one of the main branch and didn't have to live with a curse but she had a father.
It wasn't fair his was taken away from him, and she got to keep hers all because his wasn't of the main branch. She didn't even realize what she had. For all he cared she was a spoiled little brat. As he slowly left the room as to not be noticed he vowed that he would teach her a lesson that she would never forget one day.
The old man stared at the girl expectantly, she just stared blankly back. What did he what had happen, did he really expect her to tell him, didn't he understand she couldn't.
"It's okay if you can't tell me; I'm going to assume you are no threat to our village and allow you to stay. I'm also assuming you are an orphan is this true?" He asked her.
She weakly nodded yes. That word it felt so awful only 1 week ago she had been singing with her mom helping her bake cookies. She wanted to cry so badly at these thoughts but couldn't for some reason it seemed as if her tears had stopped coming almost as if the river that supplied her emotions had stopped working except to allow her to feel pain.
"Since you have no family here we will give you the things you need to live, in return we would like for you to join our academy and become a Konoha ninja, is that okay with you?" he asked gently.
Again she only nodded in response she hadn't talked since she had arrived. Maybe becoming a ninja would help to take her mind off of the past she thought.
He nodded backed to her and told her that she would start in a week and that tomorrow they would have a family for her to movie in with until she was 12 and old enough to become a genine, then she would move in by herself.
She looked at the man and nodded in understandment. It was decided she was going to let go of the past and start over hopefully she wouldn't be haunted to long.
