Kunoichi Syndrome: Origins
Chapter 17 Meet Ren
A couple of weeks later, it's just me and Itachi training together. An explosion about 5 minutes out cuts our training short. I instinctively go to investigate. Itachi follows me reluctantly. The cause of the explosion is my friend and personal weapons craftsmen Ren, trying out new materials.
"Ren! You crazy son of a bitch! You almost blew up the damn island!" I yell.
"Hi Ashley, sorry about that. How about I make a sword for Kakashi chan and we skip the lecture? Or is that a no?" Ren replies calmly.
"You are not getting off that easy." I growl.
Itachi places his hand on my shoulder. His eyes tell me not to do something I'd regret later. Itachi's chakra immediately takes over me. I reluctantly let Ren off the easy way. Time flies after this brief encounter. Before I realize it, it's the end of my junior year. After all the chaos I've manage to pass for the year. Still I'm being hunted by Madara Uchiha. Motives are still unknown. At least I still have a grip on my sanity. As for the people closest to me, they're safe. The question is: How much longer are they going to be safe?
