First, I would like to give a few shoutouts to people who have haelped me to write this book.

First and foremost everyone give a big cheer for Laodicean! Loadicean submitted several amazing characters for this book. Fukuko, Tomohiro, Tomoharu, Kaimei, and Shinya.

SO THANK YOU!

Secondly to Sco23 whose characters bring a different and stranger element to "The Rouge Ninja." Sora and Disuke.

And finally to Ihavealife for several reasons. First, giving me the idea of having characters submitted, second, writing an amazing Naruto story that influenced me to write this one. (I highly recommend reading it.) Finally for proofing my first chapter of this book, without further ado, enjoy "Naruto: The Rouge Ninja"

Shinya woke up in the inn room he had rented the night before; sitting up in bed, he was thankful for the deep sleep he had. He had been eluding ninja hostile to him after his last mission,

and this was the first night of rest he'd really gotten. As he stood up he felt around the room to the washroom. He knew exactly what he needed and exactly where it was. He still hadn't

opened his eyes, as he had none. But he didn't need eyes to see, his other senses made up for this disability and he could also sense living things when they were nearby, so dodging

people in a crowd wasn't difficult either. Shaving, however, was difficult without eyes. Shinya went through a few handsigns and said, "Ninja Art, Phantom Eyes jutsu." The world appeared

before him, the colors were dimmed but he could see himself in the mirror. He smiled, he'd always thought his slightly larger ears, nose, and mouth looked kind of funny. After shaving he

released the jutsu and bathed. Today was the day he'd return to his employer to collect the money for a job well done. He never abandoned a mission until he was sure it was done. He

got dressed absentmindedly, and when he heard a knock at the door he froze. "Phantom Eyes." He whispered, as soon as the eyes had formed he moved them from his body, unto the

floor, across the room, and under the door.(1) When he saw nothing, he had the phantom eyes posses the knob and the door. Then turning the knob and swinging the door open, the

phantom eyes dissipated. Shinya heard the sound of air whistling as three kunai flew through the door and embedded themselves in the wall. Shinya reacted immediately, running to grab

his pack. He was glad he had rented a room with no windows. It may have saved his life, but now he was trapped, and the only way out was the door. He walked next to the door and

crouched. "What do you want?" He asked. "Your life" They responded. He heard three voices, all synchronized perfectly. Ok, so I'm dealing with three highly trained ninja that obviously work

well together. Maybe I can talk them out of this. "Are you coming to avenge your fallen master?" asked Shinya. There was a pause, and then a firm "No." What? If they aren't after me because

of what I did to Lord Katamuro then am I the target of another lord? Shinya decided to stall a bit longer, "So then, I guess this is a stalemate. I'm not moving until you do, maybe we could

work something out?" There was silence, then they said, "Well, if you're willing to pay one million ryō for each of us, then we'll leave you alone." Shinya would collect seven million ryō for

his mission. However, he only had two million ryō on him now. "Alright," he said, "I only have two mil on me now, but I'll give the last million to you later today." He heard bickering amongst

them but they reached a consensus "Alright, send the money down." Using his phantom eyes he moved the money outside the door and to the ninja's foot. The ninja then picked it up and,

bringing his fingers together said, "Release" to check for genjutsu. All he succeeded in doing was destroying the phantom eye possessing it. "Ok, you can come out now, we won't hurt

you."

Daisuke felt bad for the man as he appeared around the corner, and even worse when he saw his body pierced by his comrade's kunai. His comrade laughed as he walked over to the

body. But just before he reached it, it disappeared. "Genjutsu, ha, I expected as much." What he hadn't expected however, was his own kunai flying straight up into his neck, killing him

instantly. Daisuke decided leaving would be a better idea than fighting this, Shinya. He never really liked this mission to begin with. Apparently, Sora had the same idea, she tossed the

money they had taken beside the dead man's body and ran. Figuring he wouldn't chase them since they didn't actually attack him.

Tomohiro walked beside his son Tomoharu through. They were headed to there usual training spot for some sparring and agility training. As Tomohiro looked down on his son, he couldn't

help but think how good of a ninja he'd make. He smiled as Tomoharu turned his blue eyes toward him. His blonde hair was straight until it reached his eyebrows where it made a sharp

left and covered one of his eyes. That was the one thing he had inherited from his mother. Unlike Tomoharu, Tomohiro had black hair, kept short in the front with a wolftail towards the

back. Other than the hair they looked very much alike, deep blue eyes, the same smile, and even their noses were the same. Tomoharu enjoys annoying his father but truly, they both love

each other. Tomohiro looked back up as they came to a clearing. He looked at his son sternly and said, "It's time for some more sparring, and remember, no nin-jutsu. I know you like using

that lightning strike jutsu, but you can't. Okay?" His son just nodded solemnly. "Ok then," said Tomohiro "let's begin!"

(AN: Sorry for the chort chapter but I had to get SOMETHING up before the end of today.)
