Kiyoki stood in awe at the sight of the huge walls of Konoha. They towered over her, casting a long, dark shadow in the early morning sun. The air was crisp with the smell of autumn, with a hint of winter on the breeze. Kiyoki was 5" 3', with long black/blue hair down past her shoulders. She wasn't the most beautiful of people, but she was, in her own words, 'Pretty enough for what I am'. Her eyes were a deep and piercing black, hiding their true power until it was needed. Emblazoned on her back was the Uchiha crest, the white and red fan, standing bold against the navy blue of her shirt and shorts. She wore her kunai holster on her right leg, with ninja tool bag on her left hip.

As the sun rose higher in the sky, she started walking alongside the wall, growing more and more awe-struck as she approached the main gate. She viewed it from a safe distance, hiding in a nearby tree to avoid attention for the time being. Yet the more she looked, the greater her anticipation grew. She could barely contain her excitement; she was finally going to see.....

"TSUGA!!" and before she knew it, a mass of swirling grey was flying towards her. She jumped backwards as fast as she could and was caught in mid-air by the ankle. She looked down to see a growing black mass of movement with no fixed shape, though it was gripping hard.

'Damn it' She thought 'how the hell did they sneak up on me so easily'. She blinked and power surged through her to her eyes. The Sharingan was unleashed. She quickly made her hand signs: Horse-Snake-Ram-Monkey-Boar-Horse-Tiger, and forced her body into a spin:

"Katon: GOKAKYU NO JUTSU!" As the fire erupted around her, the mass quickly dissipated and she found her feet on solid ground again. She looked up in time to see the grey swirl hurtling towards her again, but this time she was ready for it. She dropped a poison smoke bomb just behind her and evaded at the last possible second, only to find herself face to face with a sweet looking girl with lavender eyes. She threw a punch with her right hand that was blocked easily, then a left kick, blocked again. Faster and faster she attacked, and faster and faster her opponent blocked each and every attack. On and on she fought, and more and more frustration surged through her, until her concentration broke and her defense slipped by mere millimetres. She felt a slight touch to the chest, instantly followed by immense pain. Her chest was tight, so tight, to tight to catch a breath. Her Sharingan dissappeared, it was draining the remnants of her strength, and her limbs were going numb.

It felt like an eternity had passed before she heard someone approach and speak.

"what do you think we should do with her" one of them said, and though he spoke calmly and slowly, there was a definate edge of threat in his voice. Then a timid, petite, and altogether totally different voice said,

"Umm, maybe......maybe we should take her to Lady Hokage?" that voice could only of came from the girl that had hit her so gently and caused this pain.

As Kiyoki lay in a heap on the floor, she heard footsteps approaching, and forced her eyes open just enough to see three pairs of feet. 'That's why i couldn't beat them' she thought ' There was three of them...........

"WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING SNOOPING AROUND THE VILLAGE!?" one of the boys asked as he none to gently grabbed Kiyoki by the shirt and lifted her off the ground. She opened her eyes enough to see his face and saw his eyes full of anger. He wore a large, grey hooded jacket, and had red marks on his cheaks, and his overall appearance seemed very animalistic. He beared his teath and shook her violently,

"I SAID, WHO ARE YOU!?" he shouted again, and, throught sheer effort, Kiyoki managed to say,

"My...my name is Kiyoki.........Kiyoki Uchiha........." her three attackers gasped, and the one who held her up released her, and let her fall tothe floor in a heap of pain. He backed away slowly before conversing in whispers with his team-mates. Kiyoki looked up enough to see and small mass of white fur siting just infront of her........then her strength gave out, and there was nothing but dark and silence.

Hey all. My apologies if it all seems rather to the point and not much detail, but i have a lot of ideas all going on at once and would appreciate ANY criticism to help me further on the story.

Thanks alot for reading this far and i hope you're enjoying it so far.
