Solo

Chapter 11

Boruto

Rain looked me, still in disbelief. "Wow, you were the one who did it? You must be very strong to have done something like that. Now it makes sense why you didn't tell anyone much about yourself." He said and I nodded. I'm glad that he was taking it well so far. "So now to tell you mine..." he said and I listened.

"My real name is Randen, but I prefer the name Rain. I was born in this exact village about 16 years ago. I was always alone, my parents were poor and worked all day long. My older brother worked too, but he was still home most of the time. But we weren't close at all. He hated that he was born into a poor family who couldn't send him to school to train his powers. And he hated me because I was okay with the life we had.

It's not like I liked the situation we were in, but I knew that there was nothing I could do so I had to make the best out of it. I would train on my own until I turned twelve and got the same job as my brother. We would build bridges and it was tough job but I tried to make the best out of it. However, one day when I was working, my brother suddenly killed his boss. He did it right infront me so I was shocked.

He turned to me and told me that he was bad person anyway and to not worry about him, but that wasn't what shocked me the most. Right after he had said that, he pulled the body's soul right out and held it in his arms. He smiled as he did it, as if he was testing this power. That when I realized that he had the power to take people's souls. Although this power made him mad because he couldn't do anything with them.

So, he continued to train, killing every rich person he encountered. He would steal from them and  them give back to the poor. He did that as if justifying what he was doing. And for a time, I thought that it was okay as well. We weren't going hungry anymore and I got to see my parents most of the time. But then I discovered my own power...

One day, after my brother had stolen the soul of another person, I saw a girl fall from a bridge and into the ocean. I ran to try and save her but when I pulled her out, she was dead. I panicked and turned to my brother, begging him to save her. So, he did something I never saw him do before. He took the soul he had stolen and gave it to the girl. She awoke right away, only, she had the personality of the man.

I heard my brother curse, as if what he was testing had failed. I was so sad and started telling the girl to remember who she was. And out of nowhere, the girl was back. Her eyes were blank at first but now they were the same as when I first saw her. My brother couldn't believe this and had me test it more times.

He would have me brainwash his victims and would take pleasure from it. Only, what I didnt know at the time was that if I didnt turn them back after twenty minutes, they would be permanently brainwashed. My brother became obsessed with my power and thought of a way to combine ours. So, he would take the soul of a strong shinobi and put into the body of one of his minions. He then had me brain wash them and make have their original personality, while still having the abilities of the soul's owner.

This made my brother even more powerful than before. He orginal goal of stealing from and greedy and returning to the poor was gone and now he hunted powerful shinobi and stole their souls in order to put them into his minions. That is what happened to Sarada and Mitsuki before. He held our parents hostage and told me if I didnt obey him, he would kill them, so I listened and him stole their souls.

However, right as he was about to to take control of their bodies and souls, you were able to stop them. You can control people and make them listen, I can only change their own memories and make them believe what I want them to believe. But after you did it, I was glad you were able to stop me. I had found out that my parents were already dead and were dead for years now. The parents he presented to me were brainwashed souls he tricked me into making.

He killed them because he thought that they would take me from him. He is evil, he just wants power and will do anything to have it. He sent me to the village with the sole purpose of luring him powerful shinobi to add to him army. But when I got here, everyone welcomed me and was so kind to me.

For the first time in my life, I was surrounded my friends and people who actually cared. Not by my brother who just used me as his pawn. I'm sorry if this upsets you, but Naruto took me in and trained with me. I look up to him and value they way he does things. And I too want to stop my brother. He wants to kill you guys and take your powers but I cant ans wont follow him anymore. He doesn't have my parents hostage anymore so I don't have to listen to him. I can stop him but I need to get to him first."

After he had told me this, I was shocked as well. I knew that there was more to him but I had no idea that it was this complex. So he had a similar power to my own and that explains why he didnt get affected in the past. It's good that he wants to stop his brother because with a combined power like that, they would be unstoppable.

"Oh, and my brother can only steal the soul of a person once they are weakened greatly. He can't just take them as he pleases which is why he used me to speed up the process." This made me feel much more relived. It would to hard to fought someone that we couldn't even approach.

"Okay then, lead me to your brother. We will finally stop him..."
