Chapter 1

"..demon."
"...kage letting him stay?"
"..n't go near him son.."
"...ould die."

This are just the few that he hears everytime he goes out of his little home. At first he didn't get what they meant but as time goes by, he learned what the villagers are saying and it hurts him to hear that they say such things to him.

What has he done wrong?

He couldn't remember doing any wrong doings to them. All he remember is that by the time he wakes up to this world, everyone seems to stay away from him, gives him hateful eyes. He always hear them even if they were far away from him, though he doesn't understand why. Even the children of his age goes away from him as if he disgust them. It saddens him to know that he haven't made any friends for as long as he can remember. He does what the third hokage told him to do. He behaves like a good boy he is, or what the third hokage calls him when he comply to his request and such. He's a naive and innocent child, but all that comes to a change when curiosity gets to best of him.

That day after eating lunch with the third hokage, he was walking in the village, with a goal to reach his safe little home, when he hears the villagers murmuring with each other, it happens everytime they saw him walk around, some others were talking loud as if they want him to hear such words, they probably do. He can hear every word they say, even if the others are just murmuring it. All words they say were vile and full of hatred and disgust, though some don't need to say it aloud, their eyes says it all.

On the outside he walks calmly with a small smile on his face but on the inside, he's curious what the villagers have been saying. After all, the villagers only say such things whenever he's walking on the village, so that means they're talking about him, right?

'I wonder what they're talking about?' Was his innocent question that he still hadn't got an answer.

That's until an idea pop into his mind. Why not go and re search about it? After all, when he asked the third hokage about it, he saw anger in his eyes that he knows wasn't aimed to him but something or someone else before the third gave him a soft smile while saying "Don't mind them my precious boy. Their words are nothing important." After that he didn't ask anymore.

He remembered that there's different kinds of books in his room, some of them were from the third hokage and he likes them, they were good stories. But aside from that, he remembered reading the titles of the book called encyclopedia or something, there's also a dictionary that he reads whenever he wanted to know the meaning of other words he learns whenever the third hokage comes to his home and teach him stuffs.

He nods to himself. And with that in mind, he walks faster with the intention of getting to his home sooner than later, ignoring the looks the villagers are giving him. He's got more important to do anyways.

Little did he knows that everything will change his point of view about everything on that same day.

All because of the villagers, their words and his curiosity.

Was the chapter short/too short? o A o

Hontōni gomen'nasai. I'm still thinking of how I'll start the story. So, I made this little POV or something like that.

Of course, you already know who is/are here in the first chapter without me saying who is who... I wanted to in the first place but I think it won't fit on this chapter. This chapter is also like a prologue or something. There isn't much interaction with the characters but that'll change in the next chapter.

Mā! Jā mata ne!

I'm still searching for a title for this one. I intend to change the story's title after all. You may suggest if you know something~

Something, something, something, la la la~
