Onto chapter one!
ITSTARTS.ITSTARTS.ITSTARTS.
If you were here, you would see weapons flying, ninjas fighting, and blood spilling. A battle was going on, but for now, the fighting is over. The cause of it all was found here. The cause of it all was the sound of a bush moving.
"Everyone! Search for survivors!" a voice called.
"Yes captain." a few others answered. Everyone separated into groups, and looked throughout the battlefield to see if anyone survived. A while later they were going to report that no one was found, until they heard a bush rustling.
"What was that?" they looked around and searched for the sound. It was coming from the bushes a few ways off. They headed toward the sound, as it led them to the bushes. One of them pulled the leaves back, and their eyes widened at what they saw. There, lying in the grass was a girl about five years old, with raven black hair, and the bluest eyes you could ever find. They gently picked her up, and carried her to the captain.
"Captain!" he looked over and saw his team carrying a large object. He looked closer, and saw it was a girl that appeared to be five years old. His eyes slightly widened. "Where did you find her?"
"She was hidden in the bushes; she appeared to have seen the fighting. I think we should take her to the Hokage. He should know what to do with her."
The captain could do nothing but agree, "Fine, we'll take her to the Hokage."
ATTHEHOKAGETOWER.ATTHEHOKAGETOWER.
"So, Fugaku-sama, you say your squad found her in the middle of the battlefield," Sarutobi asked, A.K.A. The Third Hokage.
The captain, now know as Fugaku, could only nod in response, confirming what was being said, "What do we do with her?"
"At the moment she is being sent to be interrogated by Ibiki."
"What could a five year old know?"
"I don't know, for all we know, though I highly doubt it, she could be a spy," he said as he began to stand up. "I'm going to go check on her to make sure Ibiki doesn't try anything dangerous."
IBIKI'SQUESTIONS.IBIKI'SQUESTIONS.
At the interrogation room, Ibiki began to question the five year old. "Alright, I'm going to ask you a few questions, and you're going to answer them the best you can, alright?"
The girl nodded in her chair.
"What's your name?"
"K-Kagome Higurashi."
"Where are your parents?"
"They died in the fighting," Kagome answered solemnly.
"Where do you live?"
"I don't have a home. I traveled around with my parents before they died. They never liked to stay in one place for too long."
"Do you know what a ninja is?"
"Yeah, I know what they are," she said with a hint of venom in her voice.
"Have you had ninja training?"
"I've had a little training. My parents used to train me in case I ever got into trouble. I used to get into a lot of trouble," she replied with a smirk.
"How old are you?"
"I'm five, almost six," she stated almost proudly.
"What were you doing at the battlefield?'
"I was looking for a ninja village."
"Why were you looking for a ninja village?"
"My parents told me that if they died, I should find the nearest ninja village so I could be protected."
"Protection? Why would you need protection?"
Kagome pulled back her sleeve, and on it, a summoning tattoo. She did a few hand signs, and on the floor next to her, sat an average sized, black wolf, holding a scroll. It walked over to a tense Ibiki, and handed him the scroll.
He took the scroll and watched the wolf walk back to the girl. She started to pet it as soon as it made its way over to her. Once the wolf sat down, he opened the scroll and began to read.
If you are reading this scroll, it means that we are dead, and our daughter, Kagome, has made her way to your village, and hopefully, she made it safely and in one piece. Right now, you are probably wondering why the girl, probably no older than six years of age, knows a summoning technique. The reason is that she belongs to the Higurashi clan.
The reason is that the Higurashi clan specializes in summoning techniques. It is the only jutsu we taught her, aside from the teleportation jutsu. The reason why we sent her the nearest ninja village instead of a relative, is that the clan is no more. It was almost wiped out during the great ninja wars. Only a handful of us survived. Since then, we separated and became nomads when the elders of our clan died. If we had stayed together, the remaining Higurashi would have caused a civil war, greatly affecting the Shinobi nations.
I, Higurashi Koji, was entrusted to raise and care for the heir of the Higurashi clan, Kagome, along with my wife, Kun-loon. I was entrusted with the position of clan head as well. This made us a prime target by other ninja. This reason led us to teach Kagome our special summoning jutsu at such a young age, to protect herself in case of an attack. The jutsu was taught, and she managed to perform it flawlessly. S
he was taught the jutsu she knows before the clan separated. Everyone soon discovered that if she was taught anything, she learns whatever is taught almost automatically, making her our clan prodigy.
She was instructed in, not only a few of our clan jutsu, but in other things as well. Things that she would need to know to survive on her own should the day come that we would die.
At first when all this was explained to her, she seemed confused, but she understood the dangers of her position. We told her of the exact dangers she would face. We told her she would be targeted for assassinations and kidnappings. We did not sugarcoat anything.
Unfortunately, this information, and the sight of war at such a young age, forced her to mature and grow up, leaving her with no childhood, all for the sake of surviving. This made her a peaceful child, avoiding conflict and unnecessary fighting, but she will fight and kill without a second thought if that was her only option.
We hoped that she would find her way to the Hidden Leaf Village, or the Hidden Sand Village. We were close allies with the Kazekage, and the Hokage. We knew that if she found her way to either of these two villages, she would not be raised as a weapon, unlike in the other villages.
-Koji Higurashi, Higurashi clan head
Ibiki scanned the end of the scroll, and noticed there was a seal at the end of it. It appeared to be strong enough that only one of the five Kages could unseal it. After realizing this, he called in the Hokage to look at it. While he waited, he looked at he girl. She appeared content in petting her summon. The wolf appeared to be half-asleep, but still alert in case of an attack.
He turned around when he heard the door open. He saw the Third standing there. Ibiki tossed him the scroll without another word. As he read it, he frowned. "Ibiki, take the girl to my office. That way I can talk to her privately. I will also be able to unseal this scroll."
Ibiki nodded as he walked towards the girl, but stopped when the wolf growled at him. "Don't touch her." Kagome turned to the wolf, "It's all right Raiden, he won't hurt me. You're just being overprotective again," she turned towards Ibiki and The Third, "Sorry about that, Raiden is just overprotective," she said as she got off of her seat, and followed the Third out of her room.
He seemed to be deep in thought, 'Koji The Higurashi clan? I remember him, he was very young when I met him and his father. So this girl is his daughter,' he thought as he looked at Kagome over his shoulder, 'The letter told the truth, if a civil war was started, it would cause unrest in the Five Great Shinobi Nations. This matter will soon be resolved in my office.'
WITHTHEHOKAGE.WITHTHEHOKAGE.
"Well Kagome, by the looks of this letter, it seems as if you want to join the village, correct?" Sarutobi asked. Kagome could only nod a yes in response as she held onto Raiden's neck a bit tighter.
"It seems you need my help in unsealing the scroll Hokage-sama. It's a blood seal, but not an ordinary blood seal, you will need a summons's mark, as well as your own blood accompanying it. That way, the information contained in it will not fall into the wrong hands."
Sarutobi looked down at Raiden and realized that he indeed need his help with the seal. He tried to unseal it, but it refused to open. "Can you help me unseal it then?"
"I can't. It doesn't use my mark. Koji-sama was very specific with the seal, so no ordinary summon could open it. The one who can, is my brother, Raizen. Now we just need Kagome-sama here to do the honors," Raiden explained.
"I told you not to call me that! It's too formal Raiden!" Kagome said as she began to do the hand signs necessary.
POOF! When the smoke cleared, a black wolf identical to the other one stood there. When the wolf appeared to be preparing for an attack, Sarutobi tensed, ready for an attack, until…
"KAGOME!!" The wolf yelled as it practically pounced on the poor girl and began to lick her face.
"Ah! Gross! Raizen! Stop! You're tickling me, and you're heavy!!" Kagome tried to say in between laughs as both Sarutobi and Raiden sweatdropped at Raizen's antics until he finally calmed down and got off the girl.
"Hey there old man! I'm Raizen! You already know my twin brother, Raiden. I'm the energetic and fun one, but I can be serious if I feel like it, and he's the cool, calm, collected one. Not to mention boring as hell," he introduced himself, completely ignoring the growing tick mark on the Third Hokage's head as an expression appeared on his face. It appeared to be a smirk.
"Dang it Raizen! Don't disrespect me like that!" he yelled as he jumped at his brother.
"What did I tell ya old man!? Always with the respect! Come on little brother! Try to take me down! If you can!" Roared Raizen in amusement as he dodged his brother's attack.
Sarutobi was about to try to stop the fighting wolves when Kagome stopped him, "Don't even try. They won't hurt each other if that's what you're wondering. They'll stop fighting in about five minutes. They do this all the time. Not even I can stop them when they get like this. Just sit back and watch the show."
FIVE MINUTES LATER
Both wolves sat on the ground panting. One of them spoke. "Ha! Told you Raiden! You can't beat me!" That was when Sarutobi knew who spoke. It was the one that called him an old man.
"Hey old man! I know I wasn't summoned here for an introduction. You need my help opening the scroll Koji sealed, am I right, or am I right?" Sarutobi nodded as he tossed him the scroll, secretly hoping it would hit Raizen in the head for calling him an old man.
Raizen caught it easily with his jaws. He set it on the floor and opened it. He looked at it, then turned to Sarutobi, "hey old man, you got any ink I could use?" He tossed him an ink well thinking, 'please hit him in the head, hit him in the head, hit him in the head,' his hopes died when the damn wolf caught it just as easily as he did the scroll.
Raizen somehow opened the ink well, and covered his paw in it. He then pressed his paw onto the paper in a certain area no one even noticed was there. The scroll began to glow. "Alright old man, drop your blood on it, and Kagome will do the hand seals." Sarutobi did as he was asked, and watched the girl do a set of complicated seals he didn't recognize, making the scroll glow with a light that made him turn away.
When the light died down, his eyes met the sight of Kagome handing him a scroll. He unrolled it, and began to read.
If you are reading this, it means Kagome made it to Konoha. You are probably wondering how I know this. I originally made five scrolls. One for each of the Five Great Shinobi Villages. When you realized you couldn't open this, the wolf with Kagome, Raiden, explained how to open it. Each of the five scrolls required a different summon. Since it was in Konoha that the scroll was opened, you met Raiden's older twin brother Raizen. I apologize for any disrespectful actions on his behalf in the past, present, and hopefully, in the future, but I did not write this letter to apologize. The reason for such fuss and trouble over this scroll is because of the information it contains.
As you already know, Kagome is the heir of the now almost extinct clan, save Kagome. I wished that she could join your village as a Shinobi. The reason is simple. I want her to be protected. She was not with me long enough to teach her anything other than the summoning technique and the teleportation technique for protection. You must decide NOW. You can make her a part of the village or not.
If you choose to make her a ninja, have her become one the way a shin obi of your village would. I know for a fact that Konoha has a ninja academy. Send her there, for she will need to know the basic techniques of becoming a ninja. She already knew the dangers, and has agreed to become a kunoichi to protect herself from enemies.
This scroll also contains the information on our clan's jutsu, and Kekkei Genkai. There is a simple seal at the end of this scroll. If you unseal it, you will get the information you want on our clan. Before you unseal it, Kagome must be in the academy. However, Raizen can read your mind. It's a special power of his, but that's not the point.
The point is, if you unseal the information, and he reads your mind saying that you won't place her in the academy to become a ninja, he will know, and he'll send his chakra, effectively changing the seal. Instead of information, you will find yourself fighting a random summon. It won't be an ordinary summon either, it will be a powerful one. You won't escape with a few scrapes and bruises. You WILL sustain major injuries.
So be careful with your decision.
If you choose to NOT make her a kunoichi, there will be no hard feelings. The scroll will also burst into flames if you choose this option. When the scroll is destroyed, Kagome will leave towards Suna.
Sarutobi looked down from his scroll, and looked at the wolves and noticed one of them had his eyes glowing an eerie violet. He turned to look at Kagome, and noticed her eyes were glowing violet as well. 'What? Why are her eyes glowing as well?'
A voice knocked him out of his thoughts, "When one of us uses an ability, Kagome here, can use it as well. Right now, she is reading your thoughts as well old man. If you betray her, I'll happily tear you to pieces," Raizen said in an almost too cheery voice, "I suggest you keep reading old man." Sarutobi sighed and began to go back to reading.
When she becomes a ninja, we hoped she would revive the clan, and restore it to its former glory. In due time of course. We want her to restore it at her own pace, or to not revive it at all if she wishes. She will become a valuable asset to your village since we have quite a few allies. So, make your choice. To be a ninja, or not to be?
-Koji Higurashi, Higurashi clan head
'I'll gladly make her a ninja. She will prove a valuable asset. I'll unseal this later, but first,' he thought. He called in the Fugaku, 'good thing I didn't tell him to leave.'
"Hokage-sama, you wished to see me?" Fugaku asked.
"Uchiha-sama, I wish for you to take this Kagome-sama into your household, and enroll her into the academy," he said as he tossed him the first scroll, answering any unanswered questions.
When he quickly read it, Fugaku's eyes widened slightly. 'A Higurashi!? She could make our clan even stronger! She will be a valuable asset, just as the scroll said.' He looked at the Hokage, "Of course Hokage-sama. Let's go Kagome-sama."
Kagome looked at Fugaku, 'What's with the valuable asset crap!? Can't they just drop it!?' She inwardly sighed, "Very well Uchiha sama. Raiden, you're dismissed," Raiden nodded, and in a POOF! He disappeared. "Raizen, you're coming with me." "Woohoo! I get to go with Kag-chan!" He trotted over to Kagome, grabbed her with his jaws, tossed her over his shoulder, and onto his back. "Lead the way Uchiha-san!"
Fugaku nodded and walked out with Kagome, riding Raizen, right behind him.
INTHESTREETS.INTHESTREETS.
On the way to the Uchiha district, people couldn't stop staring. I mean, it's not everyday the Uchiha clan head in followed by a black wolf, with a little girl riding it.
When the wolf glared at everyone, they turned around, and went back to minding their own business. This was a strange day indeed.
UCHIHAHOUSEHOLD.UCHIHAHOUSEHOLD.
Once they arrived at the household, Fugaku announced his arrival, "Mikoto! Itachi! I need you both to meet someone!"
When they both came in, Kagome was standing next to Raizen, 'A woman, probably his wife, and a boy. He's kinda cute. He also seems a little older than me, probably a few months,' she thought, completely forgetting about Raizen's 'special ability'.
Raizen looked at Kagome through the corner of his eye, 'I love our mental link,' he thought while mentally smirking, 'So she thinks he's cute. This will prove interesting. If he can stand up to me, then I'll let her chase after him. If he doesn't, he'll If he does stand up to me, I'll be having grand pups soon! I'll be a grandpa!'
'Raizen! Shut up! I don't like him like that!' Kagome thought.
'Oh! But you will! In due time of course, and I'll be here every step of the way!'
'Wonderful, just wonderful Raizen.'
They both turned when the woman began speaking, "Hello there, I'm Mikoto, and this is my son, Itachi. What's your name?"
"My name's Kagome, and this is Raizen," she said when she noticed Raizen wasn't there. 'Crap, where is he!? Oh no,' her eyes widened when she saw where he was, 'Don't do anything stupid Raizen!'
Raizen was standing two inches from Itachi's face. He, of course, heard her thoughts, 'Don't worry, I won't do anything rash,' he thought as he continued to stare Itachi down, who in response, glared back. This made everyone tense, expecting one of the two to attack each other.
Raizen blinked, then smiled a smile only a wolf could pull off. "Ha Ha! I like you boy! You've got guts! Oi! Kag-Chan! I approve of this one! Kag-chan, don't let this one get away! He'll be good for ya!" he said as he noticed both kids blush. Kagome's face was tinted pink, while Itachi's blush disappeared after a few seconds, making unnoticeable to all but Raizen, and Kagome, making her blush even more.
"You hear that Ita-kun! You hurt her in any way, and I'll personally tear you apart," he said in his too cheery voice, making him on the receiving end of Itachi's glare.
He smirked before speaking so low, that only Itachi could hear, "Understand this kid, I can read your mind," hearing this, Itachi's eyes widened only a fraction, "So that means I heard your little plans for Kag-chan. That's right, I heard your plans of making her yours. I know you're serious about his too, I can feel your emotions as well. I felt that little spark that will turn to love, I heard your heartbeat increase when you saw her, and I could even smell your blood pressure rise at the sight of her. I even saw the tiny blush you had. I don't mind if you pursue her, in fact, you have my blessings, but I warn you kid, if you don't make a move by the time she's thirteen, someone else will get to her. She will grow up to be a beauty, so you won't be the only one after her. That's just a warning."
When he finished saying this, he noticed the kid's eyes had widened, he was sweating, and his heart was thumping. He smirked, "Well, I guess I should leave now! Uchiha-san, Mikoto-san, and Itachi-san will take good care of you. So I guess I should go now! Till next time Kag-chan!" and with a POOF!, he disappeared, leaving a blushing Kagome, a smirking, slightly disoriented Itachi, and his confused parents.
Right before he left, he had broadcasted his thoughts to Kagome, so she heard every word he said to Itachi.
Kagome was thinking about what he said before her blush disappeared, and she began smirking, 'Thanks a lot Raizen, you idiot. I'll get you for this.'
Both kids stared each other down before mentally cursing at Raizen's last thoughts, that they both heard, 'Hurry up and fell in love already! Swallow your pride when you do and admit it to the other! I want grand pups soon!'
The lone thought that ran through both their heads, 'Don't worry, I will.'
Another lone thought ran through the parent's head, 'I don't know what just happened, but I know this much for sure. This will definitely prove interesting.'
AT THE SUMMONING REALM…
"YOU DID WHAT!!" an angry Raiden yelled at the top of his lungs.
"Calm down little brother. You know you want to see how this unravels itself as well."
"That may be true, but you pushed them both!"
"No I didn't. I just gave them both a push in the right direction. Now we just wait, and see how this plays out."
Raiden sighed at his older brother's antics, "Fine. I'll watch you play matchmaker."
"I know this much for sure, "Raiden turned to his, now strangely serious, brother, "That child, Kagome, is going to do great things in the future. She will be the cause of it all. I'm taking a nap. Wake me when something interesting happens around here."
'The cause of it all? Interesting, he was probably caught a glimpse of the future again. The Higurashi clan will be revived apparently. I can't wait to see how things play out,' he thought as he decided to join Raizen. Soon they both fell asleep, both dreaming of the grand pups they will both have in due time.
