The Normal Life of a Crazy Girl

Chapter 1: Karin? You are such a poser ninja!

I guess I should describe myself before I start my story, huh? Well, I am 19 years old; I have bleach-blonde hair, and pale blue eyes. I am about 5'5" and my favorite color is green. I like nice people, animals, and water. I dislike fighting, thinking too much, and flying. I have taken gymnastics for about 5 years, and I am a purple belt in karate. I HATE being the damsel in distress! It makes me feel useless and defenseless. Besides, I don't like it when guys think they're better than girls when it comes to fighting. Enough about me, let's get on with the story, OK?

That Monday morning I did my usual routine: I woke up, took a shower, got dressed, brushed my hair, and brushed my teeth. After that, I went downstairs to try and have breakfast with my parents. The keyword here is try. When I got downstairs, no one was there! The only thing there was a note on the fridge that said the following:

Dear Alyx,

Your father and I had to go to Paris on a business trip. We didn't want you to get bored there, so we decided not to take you. We should be back in about a month or two. Please take care of yourself!

Love,

Mom and Dad

P.S. there isn't any milk or eggs left for you to make breakfast with, so you'll have to pick some up at the store.

What. The. Heck. First of all, how in the world can anyone get bored in Paris? THE PARIS! That's unheard of! And secondly, how in the world did we run out of milk and eggs? When I checked the fridge last night we had a whole case of eggs, and two gallons of milk. Where can all of that go overnight! Seriously! ...I take that last statement back. I forgot about the bottomless pit that is my dad's stomach. I sighed. Might as well go ahead and get the stuff now. The closest store near me was only about two blocks, so I decided to just walk there. That was mistake number one. The second mistake was forgetting to tie my shoelaces before I left. And the last and final mistake was not looking before crossing the street.

I know exactly what you're thinking: 'Oh My Gosh! She's going to get ran over by a car, isn't she?' Well, I am glad to inform you that I did not get ran over by a car. Instead, I tripped on my untied shoelaces, fell in the middle of the street, and got ran over by a bicyclist. As I said before, I know what you're thinking: 'How can you die by getting hit by a bicycle?' Well, I am here to inform you that if the bicycle tires run over your neck, you CAN die! I know this because I just went through this horrible death. Yep! I am officially dead! BUT! On the bright side I came back to life in the middle of a forest! Yay me!

As I look around the field I notice that I am conveniently placed in a bunch of flowers. Aren't I the lucky one? Suddenly, I started to hear footsteps and voices. "That weird chakra signature is coming from over here!" yelled a squeaky high-pitched voice. 'What the heck is a chakra signature? Obviously, they are talking about me, so I'm going to activate plan A, and play dead,' I thought. "Oi! Sasuke! There's a girl lying on the field over here!" said another, more deeper voice. " I think she's dead!" he added. 'Yes! My plan is working!' I thought.

As they came closer, another voice commented, "She's faking, Suigetsu." 'Dang it!' I'm guessing this guy is Sasuke, and the other one is Suigetsu. I decided to get up and show myself to the world. As I look around I see four people; a girl with red hair, a guy with white hair, a guy with black hair which kind of reminds me of a duck's butt, and this tall giant dude! He must eat a lot of greens! After I analyzed them I asked them who they were. This is what I found out. The redhead's name is Karin, and she is obsessed with the duckbutt; also known as Sasuke. Sasuke is quiet, and I bet he's emo. The jolly green giant is Juugo. He's also quiet, but he isn't radiating that emo vibe. Lastly, the other guy's name is Suigetsu. He reminds me of a shark with his pointy teeth. The most important thing I found out was that they're ninjas! That's awesome! But one thing was bothering me…..

"So….Karin, huh?" I said. "Yeah, that's my name. Why?" she asked. "It doesn't sound like a ninja name…" I suddenly gasped. "Are you a poser ninja!" I exclaimed. "What! Why you little!..." As she ran at me with her fist raised, she suddenly stopped. She looked pretty tense. Now that I look around though, everyone seemed tense. Even that Sasuke dude. When I turn around to see what all the fuss is about, I see a scary blue shark-like dude and another guy that looks like Sasuke. The Sasuke look-alike stares straight at me and says, "Come with us or die." I wordlessly walk over to them, because I don't want to die after all the crap I've been through today. I know what you think, 'Why would you give yourself to the enemy so easily?' Well, let's be honest. If you were in my place, you'd do the same thing. Those two guys look freaking scary. No joke. Compared to those two, that group of four looks like a slice of bread; fragile and edible.

So, when I walked over there the weirdo shark has the nerve to knock me out! What nerve! I mean seriously, after I WILLINGLY walked over there my reward is getting knocked out. Jerks! They will be hearing about this when I wake up! For real!
