Title: First Love: The Story of Tetsuo and Jasmine

A/N: Hello sorry it took so long to get this chapter out I had to get over my boyfriends house and we got kind of well…..distracted. TOTALLY NOT OUR FAULTS!!!! Lol okay so yeah I'm totally lying there… okay so here is the second part.

Chapter One: Coming of Age…

Character: Tetsuo

"You're not trying hard enough Tetsuo!" Kisame yells at me in disappointment of my training.

"I'm sorry sensei, I'm just elsewhere today."

"Well your not elsewhere in battles are you? You loose your focus even for a second and you're finished. Understand?"

"Yeah…" I say as I brush the dirt from my pants.

"What's keeping you from your full potential anyway?"

"It's nothing."

"Tetsuo, don't lie to me."

"sigh I've been thinking of what you've taught me lately and all you've had me do was kill innocent people. And ever since you had that 'encounter' yesterday, that you still haven't told me about, you've been acting different.

"You know I can't tell you what that was about. You haven't matured fully to grasp it."

"Yes I can! You just don't trust me and I'm sick of it!" I punch the tree next to me to prevent me from attacking Kisame.

"sigh That's enough for today Tetsuo. Go home and get some rest." Kisame picks up his sword and walks away.

I return to my home in the heart of Kirigakure, The Village Hidden in the Mist, by dinner. At night the entire village gives off a very soothing blue aura and the smell of rain fills the air for the coming morning.

That night, however, was not so perfect. I kept running what Kisame said about "not being able to grasp the encounter." I just had to know.

I tried to clear my head by sitting on my windowsill, when out of the corner of my eye; I saw something leap over my roof. I looked quick to see Kisame head for the forbidden river. This was my chance to get some answers.

I put on my gear and followed him. For a good 100 feet I stayed behind him so he wouldn't notice me. After about 20 minuets he stopped in an open field. I dove down into the bush to conceal my whereabouts. Something about this just didn't feel right.

After an hour of waiting, a strange person shows up. I could see somewhat what this stranger looked like, white face, yellow eyes, black hair, but it was his presence that frightened me most. Kisame greeted him but I could barley make out what his name. I tried to listen in, but the roar of the river was too loud. I moved in closer, a risky move, but I wanted to get to the bottom of this.

For quiet a while they talked until the most crucial part came to surface.

"Do you think he's ready?" asked the stranger.

"His skill is almost to that of his, but his mind is hesitant."

"Convince him then Kisame, for tomorrow, our plan comes into action."

I take a step back and a twig snaps under my foot. "Shit!" They both look in my direction and I take off as fast as I could.

The next morning I get to our training spot early.

"Hm? Tetsuo, what are you doing here this early?" Kisame asks with an intrigued look on his face.

"You know full well. Who was that you were talking with last night? And what plan are you trying to involve me in?"

"He, he, it looks like your ready."

"Ready for what?"

"Tetsuo, I want you to come with me. Me and the clan of the Akatsuki. We shall rule this world with our awesome power and crush anyone who stands in our way. It will be a foolish choice to deny it."

"I can't believe it. No! I won't kill anymore innocent people!" Kisame looks at me with distaste.

"Fine, then you will only stand in our way!" He takes a swing at me with his sword, but I was able to dodge it. He comes at me again, but I deployed two smoke bombs in time to allow my escape.

When I returned to the village, I was in shock of what lay in front of me. The town I called home lay in ruin. I wanted to vomit at the amount of blood that had been shed. I rush to my home to grab my equipment and made my way to the northern pass.

I would start my journey to Konoha to begin my new life, in the hopes that I can fix what I have done in my past, so that I can change the future for the world.
