Well I'm back this will be the official first chapter and a time skip so with that said let's get started.
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or anything else except the story and any OC's.
Time skip one year later: Small village twenty miles outside of Iwa.
Karasu and Tayuya were walking through the market area of the village. They had both been given orders to scout the area for anyone that could be deemed "special" as Orochimaru had put it.
"Why the fuck are we doing this again?" Tayuya asked with no small amount of annoyance in her voice.
"Because Orochimaru Sama needs more man power for his new village besides the two of us." Karasu replied.
"Yea but I highly doubt that we'll find anyone "special" in this small ass place Shithead-kun." She stated
Karasu had to admit she had brought up a valid point. They had begun their search early morning and it was now entering the afternoon. It was then Karasu heard a loud rumbling sound coming from his stomach.
"Wow Shithead-kun! Was that your stomach or an earthquake?" Tayuya snickered before laughing at his embarrassment.
Karasu put his head down to try and hide the blush he was now sporting until he heard a second rumble but this one was not his own.
Tayuya stopped laughing almost instantly as a red hue now tinted her cheeks.
Karasu gave her a knowing smile and said. "Alright will break for lunch and then resume our search."
Tayuya nodded her head and replied. "Okay but you're buying."
"Fine." Karasu said with a sigh.
As they made their way down the road they passed a few eateries before settling on a small dango shop.
Once they were about to enter they were suddenly knocked over by a large object exiting said shop.
"What the fuck was that?" Tayuya said still slightly dazed.
Suddenly a man ran out of the shop screaming. "GET BACK HEAR YOU FAT FREAK!"
As he said that more men came to his side. "Did that monster rob you again?" One of the men asked.
"Yea this time he dies!" The man replied.
As they chased after what they said was a monster Karasu turned towards Tayuya and gave a nod.
They both started to head off towards the same direction as the men.
At the end of an alleyway there stood a large boy with an orange short Mohawk he was easily two feet taller than Karasu. In his hand were a few sticks of dango. As he stared at the sweet orbs his mouth began to water. As he was just about to take his first bite he was interrupted by a man yelling.
"I FOUND HIM!" Shouted a man at the alleys entrance.
Karasu and Tayuya were jumping from roof top to roof top until Karasu stopped on one just overlooking the alley.
"Why did you stop?" Questioned Tayuya.
"I want to see if he is truly worthy to serve Orochimaru Sama." He replied.
"So you just want to observe him but what if they kill him?" She asked.
"Then Orochimaru Sama will have no use for his corpse." He replied.
As they watch the scene below more men started to fill the alley's entrance.
They were all civilians and carried kitchen knives and wood cutting axes.
"This is finally it. Today is the day we finally rid ourselves of this vermin." Stated one of the men.
"S-stay back I don't want to hurt you!" The boy said.
Suddenly the whole mob was in an uproar as they laughed at the boy's threat.
"As if you are in any position to hurt us." One man said as they continued to laugh.
Soon the boy started to ball up his fists. As they continued to laugh at him his anger increased.
"STOP LAUGHING AT ME!" He screamed as he lunged towards the mob.
As soon as he was in range he threw a punch with as much force as he could muster towards a man standing next to a wall. The man out of either pure instinct or just plain luck managed to avoid it only for the wall that was next to him much to the surprise of the mob to be completely obliterated.
From their place on the roof Karasu and Tayuya were in slight shock that a young boy with no formal ninja training whatsoever was able to completely destroy a wall made out of solid cement.
At this a smile appeared on Karasu's face as he turned towards Tayuya.
"Say hello to the newest member of the family." He said as he turned his attention back towards the alley.
The crowd was finally recovering from their shock as they looked at the now exhausted boy in front of them.
The boy was on one knee he knew this was it. As the mob drew closer fear started to etch across his face. One of the men with an axe raised the blade above his head ready to bring it down.
The boy closed his eyes waiting for the blow that never came instead he heard the sound of flesh being torn followed by a thud and then a louder thud. When the boy opened his eyes he saw a smaller boy with his back to him he then noticed that the boys right arm was extended outward and at the end of his arm was a kunai but this one had chakra extending from the blade giving it an extra twenty seven inches in length but what made this chakra unique was the purple hue it had. Finally he look at the ground in front of the boy where he heard the thuds and saw the decapitated corpse of the man who just moments before was about to bring an axe to his skull.
Karasu looked at the crowd with cold emotionless eyes they were all in a state of shock and horror.
The mob was on edge as this child had just ruthlessly killed a grown man twice his size with relative ease.
Karasu then lowered his arm and with absolutely no emotion said one thing. "Leave."
With that the crowd quickly dispersed as the men started scattering out of the alley like a swarm.
Once the alley was cleared Karasu turned towards the boy and offered his hand.
The larger boy looked at the extended hand with some skepticism but eventually took it.
Once the boy was on his feet Karasu decided to get introductions out of the way.
"So my names Karasu." He started when Tayuya finally jumped down from the roof and landed right beside him. "And this (He gestures towards Tayuya.) Is Tayuya. We are shinobi who serve the great Orochimaru Sama and are also his personal guard we are here seeking individuals who have the potential to become powerful shinobi so our Lord may establish a strong shinobi village." He said it in the most professional way he could with as much seriousness as he was able to muster.
The boy looked at the two in front of him for a few moments before replying. "My names Jirubo sorry but if there isn't anything you need from me I'll be going."
As the boy known now as Jirubo made his way towards the entrance of the alley Karasu moved to block off his path.
"There is something I want." Karasu said.
Jirubo narrowed his eyes.
"It's not just what I want but what Orochimaru Sama wants as well." He continued.
At this point Jirubo was starting to gain a slight interest in who this Orochimaru is and what exactly he wants from him.
"I saw the way this village treats you but I also saw your potential power as well." Karasu gained a smirk across his face he then turned his attention to the rubble where a wall use to be. "Not many could smash right through solid cement like that without any kind of training." He stated.
Jirubo was starting to get impatient and decide to interrupt. "So what does any of this have to do with this Orochimaru guy you keep talking about?"
"I was just getting to that part." Karasu said before continuing. "You have the potential for power but no control. Orochimaru Sama can give you control and teach you to use your potential. Use his teachings well and few will be able to oppose you." As Karasu finished he waited patiently for a response.
After a few moments Jirubo finally spoke. "And just what would I have to do in return?"
Karasu gave him a smirk. "Oh that's easy all you have to do is swear undying loyalty to Orochimaru Sama. You must obey any order that he gives without question. Do this and he will give you control over the immense strength you possess."
Jirubo didn't need long to make up his mind. "I accept so long as he keeps his end of the bargain."
Karasu gave him a smile and said. "Welcome to the family Jirubo."
Tayuya decided to make herself known. "Now that the mission is done for today Shithead-Kun can we get some fucking food now?"
"Oh yea I almost forgot." Karasu replied.
Jirubo turned his attention towards Tayuya. "You know ladies shouldn't talk like that."
Tayuya turned to face the larger boy. "Minds your own fucking business Lardass."
Jirubo was about to retort but Karasu stopped him. "Just let it go."
A few hours later:
As the sun was finally setting the group made their way to the inn they were staying at.
"Fuck I can't wait to take a shower." Tayuya said as they came up to the inn.
Once at the inn the group made their way to their room once there the noticed a note on the door. Tayuya was the one to grab it as she read through its contents her eyes went from her usual scowl to completely pissed and annoyed.
"That son of a bitch!" Was all she said as she handed the note over to Karasu.
After reading the contents he knew the reason for her anger. If there was one thing Tayuya made sure to take care of it was personal hygiene. Karasu then handed the note to Jirubo who stared at it in confusion.
"I can't read." He said with shame lacing his voice.
Karasu merely gave him an understanding nod as he started to explain the notes contents.
"It states that Orochimaru-Sama has already left and is on his way towards a small village about fifteen miles south of Kumogakaru and that we are to meet him there in three day's time he has also stored our packs as well as a map to our destination in a storage seal on the back of the note and has put me in charge until we get there.
Jirubo just gave a nod in response.
"If it makes you feel any better I'm sure we'll come across a stream or a lake on the way there." Said Karasu in a failed attempt to ease Tayuya's stress.
Tayuya just mumbled something to herself about stupid shitheads.
"Aright let's head out". Said Karasu
Two hours later: Forest 35 miles from the border.
"Why the fuck are we walking?" asked Tayuya
"Because we don't need to draw attention to ourselves. Also Jirubo hasn't learned any chakra control yet." Karasu replied.
Tayuya just mumbled something about stupid fatasses.
As the group continued on their three day journey a set of eyes was watching them as they made their way down the path.
And done sorry it took so long things have been hectic but I promise chapter updates will become more frequent. So until next time I'm out.
