Bitter Scars (Naruto-fanfic)

Chapter 2 New town new home?

I slept with sweat covering my body, all the screams devoured my mind in my subconscious as I heavily crunch down to my heart as it beats as painfully, yes, I had nightmares from that day, thus I suffered from serious insomnia, from that on, I never slept once. It was just a small price I paid to be a criminal,

I travelled around the nations, I've always disappeared from one village to another and never stayed the same place long, i took on an appearance that every called me, The Red Blood. As I've always, with an emotionless face, faced my enemies and covered in their own blood. My enemies always says that I'm in some 'bingo' book that they wants to capture me for the money and in the 4 years I was travelling, the Hokages haven't done anything serious to take action for killing one of their own, the akatsuki haven't made their move on 'forcing me to join them'.( which i wanted to avoid them as much as possible)

Along my way, I've certainly improved on deceiving people by hiding my chakra and creating a new technique, I can summon 10 specialized on one element, lightening, darkness, healing, fire, ice, crystal, water, earth, air, one of them, was especially bigger, ace, but he focused on only genjitsu and taijitsu, thus he doesn't use any element.

Their names were not any different from their element names, only lightening's name was changed to Bolt.

It was bright morning, about 6am and it was a bit chilly,

I then proceed to Konoha village; by my knowledge, they were a big village and gives chances to other travelers to come and stay, but I just planned to stay for the night there. Ookami spoke, which he rarely does, 'Kei, I don't think they will let someone let you just waltz in, you should wear your bandage and cover your eyes, that way, they will think you are just a normal kid, your left eye cannot change back into your original eye color after all' he suggests it. I said an ok to him and took out my eye patch which I didn't wear to as to let enemies come to me, I need food to eat too sometimes, it was totally black with a skull on the front, i walked briskly to the gate of Konoha as two guards that look totally relaxed as if they were sure no one will attack their village, "Hey, what business do you have here kid" They two spoke with authority and I emotionlessly, as if I would want to talk to idiots, "Let me through, I am a traveler, I want to stop here for the night."

'Sigh, Kei, if you talked like that, they won't have your sympathy' Ookami reminded me, I dismissed it with my words, 'I don't need sympathy'

'The world doesn't work your way' Ookami said again, I knew he was right and kept quiet.

"Hmm, I don't know if you can, you'll need to speak to our Hokage, I'll take you to him"

I didn't respond as he started walking with the second idiot each by my side in case I do anything, dangerous, oh you have no idea.

I saw their symbol of a fire in front of a Hokage's building that was obviously important and we stepped inside and one of the idiots knocks an office door and went in.

"Hokage, this brat says he wants to stop here in our village for the night,"

"Oh really? What is his name?"

They kept referring me as a guy, I know that my hair is short and I look like a guy but when I see it, oh, I always kept it short and it was a burden when I fight, thus I never cared about them, I wore a shattered jeans I had worn for 2 years now, I get the money from the bounties in the bingo book, but not all the shops welcome me as I don't wear my eye patch,

The Hokage raises his head towards me and I realized he asked for my name, my eyes didn't even batter as he looked me intimidatingly, "Keira Mouryouku" My usual emotionless expression shocked him as he thought, "This feeling? ...I know them"

He spoke again, "I am Hiruzen Sarutobi, since you are travelling, and why don't you come to Konoha to stay?"

"Ok"

The guards were standing beside me, gapping their minds out

"That was too straight forward! Why did you let her stay anyway? She might..."

"Nope I won't," I said straight to his face(hah, I don't even have to flinch for me to beat you all anyway)

"And there it is izumo," he continued and took a glance to acknowledge Izumo and then focusing on me again. I shrugged "Are you okay with living with yourself? I need you to go to the ninja academy, the graduation test is a month from now so I need to make sure you're ready, I'll write a report for your sensei to read."

"Thank you Sarutobi-san" which I got disrupted by an intimidating man that looked as if he wanted to kill me for just calling their 'Hokage', he spoke angrily, "Who gave you the rights to say his name so informally? You brat! "The hokage didn't even have time to stop this ibiki before he underestimated me and rushes to grab me while I closed my eyes and do the fast hand signs that made him stop completely, only I can undo it. The 'hokage' widen his eyes and said calmly, "Um, can you release him?"

"I will after I leave, I don't want some random enemies to attack me, so, which class am I in?"

"With Iruka-san. There's actually only one class so you know which, can you do the clone juitsu?"

"Yes, how many do you want to make me..."

"Maximum?"

"Sorry but I don't want to fill your whole village with clones of me"

He widens his small eyes and says, "Ok, I will set the ANBU on you for a few days, if you don't mind, you can attend the class tomorrow, classes starts at 7am in the morning, so you can look around first , "

"Yah, can I leave now ?"

"Yes, and Keira? Welcome to Konoha, release your jutsu on your way out," He reminds me

"Thank you Hiruzen-san," I stopped at the door back facing him, "by the way, I'm a girl" and closed the door without waiting for a respond and released my technique on the poor guy that was throwing a distasted face to my way the whole time.

Ookami spoke, "He showed sympathy towards you, you're not even accused of being an S-class criminal, even if you're' just a little girl. This old man has underestimated you."

i think that he is merely pretending to care, i mean, what kind of person would just accept another by words? Trust isn't what i would use, he just want to use me.
