Chapter 14

Jinrou POV

Sooooo booooooored. Ugh, there's nothing to do in here! All I do is sit here and watch what Ookami does. I feel kinda bad, she must be bored since she's lived here my whole life. I bet she misses being free. I sit back down and just think.

Ookami POV

Poor Jinrou, she's so bored. I frown. We were sitting eating breakfast at the moment.

"Is something wrong, Ookami?" Sakura asked.

"Jinrou's bored." I stated. Sasuke's eyes widened a bit.

"Doesn't she have anything to do?" He asked.

"Not really. She could go into her memories, but she'd rather not go through all that again." I said. When Jinrou was younger I figured out how to move around her mind. There's a specific room for everything; her memories, dreams, emotions, etcetera.

"Why wouldn't she?" Sakura asked. I sighed.

"Jinrou hasn't had the best childhood. She'd rather not have to relive something so horrible." I told them.

"Like what?" Kakashi asked curiously. I sighed again.

'May I?'

'Sure, go ahead.' Jinrou replied. I waved my hand and chakra came out. It made a screen and the screen started flickering.

"How can you do that?" Sakura asked amazing.

"I can control her chakra much easier since I'm the source of it. Can someone turn off the lights?" Naruto got up and turned off the lights. The screen flickered and everything was seen.

~the night when Ookami attacked~

You could seem people running in a small village. There I was, running and randomly spewing out blue chakra.

"Ah, those were the days." I sighed quietly and leaned my head against one of my hands.

Suddenly, a man stood on top of a high cliff and reached his arms out."Bring me the child!" He yelled out. A little girl in a white blanket was given to him. She had pretty light grey eyes and pitch black hair. She couldn't be more than a few months old. I started to feel weak and staggered slightly. I whimpered a bit and suddenly felt weightless. I was going into the little girl! Suddenly I was in a blue room. Outside, the Hokage looked at the little girl. Her hair glowed bright white with blue streaks in them and her eyes deep bright blue before her hair going back to it's normal black and her eyes where a darker grey.

~a few days later~

The Hokage held a little girl dressed in all black. She had shining grey eyes and pitch black hair. There were two coffins. One had the picture of a woman with silver eyes and brown hair. The other had a man with pitch black hair and golden eyes. The little girl wasn't more than a few months old. But she cried silently with small sniffles. The Hokage knew no one would take her in, so he kept her and raised her.

~a few years later~

The little girl was now about 5 with her pitch black hair past her shoulders and tears in her grey eyes. It was the Hokage's funeral. The new Hokage came up to her and looked down at her with disgust.

"You better leave and find a new place to stay." He told her coldly. She just looked down and didn't say a word.

~a few months later~

The little girl was in a tree house she made for herself.

'Don't you ever do anything exciting?' A voice suddenly echoed. The little girl looked up startled.

"Hello? Is anyone there?" She asked out loud.

'I'm in your head dummy.' The voice said.

"Am I crazy?" The girl asked shakily.

'No, I'm just the demon inside you.' The voice said nonchalantly.

"I have a demon?" The girl innocently asked.

'Yup.' The voice replied. Blue fog appeared around her feet and a wolf appeared in front of her. It had 3 tails and they swished behind her. The wolf had shining grey/silver eyes and her fur was a pure white with blue streaks in them. She was a bit taller than the little girl.

"You're really pretty." The little girl said smiling.

'Thanks kid.' The wolf replied. 'I'm much bigger, but I don't have the necessary amount of chakra to go full out. So you'll have to do with this.' The little girl nodded and began to run her fingers through the wolf's fur. The wolf didn't mind.

"What's your name?" The little girl asked.

'Ookami.' The wolf replied. 'It means "wolf".' She added.'Whats your name?' The little girl furrowed her brows in thought.

"The Hokage used to call me sweetie, but he said he didn't know my name." The little girl said.

'Then how about I give you a name?' The Ookami asked sitting. The little girl nodded. 'Hmm, how about Jinrou? It means "werewolf" or "turns into wolf".' The little girl thought for a bit before nodding happily.

"I like it, thank you!" Jinrou said hugging Ookami. Ookami's eyes widened. Her maternal instincts kicked in and she curled herself around the little girl.

~a few years later~

The girl was now 7. She was running from a bunch of kids who were the same age and older than her. They chased her and yelled mean things at her. Suddenly her eyes glowed blue and she disappeared in a puff of blue smoke. She appeared in a forest next to a waterfall unconscious. A few hours later she woke up and dragged herself to the waterfall. She drank some water.

"Ookami, why does everyone hate me?" She asked thin air.

'Because they don't understand you.' A voice echoed.

"They don't give me a chance." The little girl said.

'I know. It's because they fear you.' The little girl looked curiously at her reflection. She squeezed her eyes shut and clenched her fists. A little crease appeared between her eyebrows as she concentrated. Her hair glowed white with blue streaks. She opened her now blue eyes.

"I can keep it longer now." She said as she looked into her reflection.

'I know. I'm very proud.' The voice said happily. She held her breath as she clenched everything in her body and squeezed out chakra. In her palm was a miniature wolf made out of solid chakra. It had three tails and they swished as the wolf took small steps around her hand before vanishing.

"How can you come out?" Jinrou asked panting as her appearance went back to normal.

'I have to focus. It's very difficult to do. It was much easier when you were little.' Jinrou nodded then looked around.

"How did I get here?" She asked looking around.

'I brought you here. You should learn how to transport.' Jinrou nodded.

~a few more years~

Jinrou was now 9 years old. She was hiding behind a building.

"You ready?"

'Yup.' Ookami answered she got a chakra rush and sped faster than a blur into a classroom. When she stopped she looked completely different. She had purple hair and brown eyes. She was a bit chubbier and not as tall with short hair. She sat in the back of a classroom and took notes on what the sensei said. He looked up at her then looked away. He did a double take.

"What are YOU doing here?" He yelled.

"Uh oh." Jinrou said going back to her normal self with a poof. She jumped out the window and the kids watched as she landed and disappeared into blue smoke. A few days later a boy appeared at her tree house. He was just a little bit taller than her. He had dark forest green hair and golden eyes with flecks of emerald in them. He was lanky and had a few cinnamon freckles across his face. Jinrou backed away and narrowed her eyes.

"I saw you in class the other day." The boy said as he approached her.

"I didn't see you." Jinrou replied sassily.

"You know, I was impressed with what you did. That's very advanced ninjutsu." She looked shocked.

"Um, thanks." She replied.

"You know, I don't have many friends. None really. If you want, I could copy down notes for you." He offered with a smile.

"In exchange for what?" She asked curiously.

"Nothing really. Maybe we could be... friends?" He asked. Her eyes widened further.

"I've never had a friend before." She murmured. He smiled sympathetically.

"Neither have I." Jinrou smiled and shook his hand.

"You've got yourself a deal. What's your name?"

"Takashi." He said smiling as he shook her hand.

"Well Takashi, I'm Jinrou."

There was a sort of montage where you could see Jinrou growing up. She spent her afternoons with Takashi and trained while he watched her with interest. She even taught him how to learn to focus his chakra even though he wasn't very good at it. Suddenly it showed her running then turning into a puff of smoke. She landed in front of familiar gates and two ninja with leaf village headbands ran toward her.

The screen flickered and turned into smoke. Naruto got up to turn on the lights.

"And that's basically Jinrou's childhood." I told them. Sakura had tears in her eyes, Sasuke looked troubled and Naruto looked plain angry.

"She was treated horribly." He growled out.

"I'm sure you understand what it feels like." I said as I leaned forward toward him and rested my chin in my hand. He shook his head.

"She was treated much worse than me." I looked at him sympathetically.

"What did she do about food and shelter?" Kakashi asked speaking up.

"She would disguise herself as an old woman and grab bread from nice vendors who gave it to her thinking she was a poor old lady. She stayed in the tree house she made." Kakashi looked down.

"Her life must've been so hard." Sakura sniffled. I nodded.

"It was, but it's gotten much better with the recent events that have occurred." I replied smiling. They smiled back at me after a moment of silence.
