A Scarlett Flower (Naruto Isekai Fanfic)

Prologue

.....

"I'm sorry, kid. You can't be a Shinobi. Your chakra reserves don't have enough to spare. It seems it just doesn't seem to grow with your body for some reason. It's not pretty uncommon for civilians anyway."

I felt a hand on my shoulder as the proctor said it again.

And I...

Had that cold truth embedded in my head like a thick nail.

If I had a mirror in hand, something probably shattered.

Years later here I am face to face with konoha Shinobis. Have I become a Shinobi myself...?

Complicated really but that's a story for later...

"Reiko-san, we're going to ask you to return to konoha quietly or else there will be no choice but to incapacitate you...."

The shinobi likely a chunnin spat loudly at me. He isn't much of  interest but the jonin beside him is. A green vest with his headband proudly on his head covering his left eye.

Yeah, that's Kakashi Hatake alright. I don't think I'm in the sort of situation to be fangirling though. This doesn't seem like the best way to meet you favorite characters. I mean there he's in orders to kill me.

Seriously, if those gazes were a knife I'd be sliced in half right now...

Why?

Okay, maybe the things I've done over the past years were probably not most likable to the village. Most leaf Shinobi don't really like me in general actually.

I felt a slight sense of danger suddenly moving as fast as I can avoiding all the kunai. Yeah definitely not the time. That almost got me. Dammit, he's fast.

"It seems I shall be taking your silence for a no then? Norowareta no Reiko."

Kakashi said as his body shifted in a battle stance. Wait, he's lifting up his headband...

SHARINGAN!?

"H-hey Konoha Shinobi-san, aren't you taking this a bit far? T-that's a sharingan..right. I haven't even said?..."

I honestly can't help but feel nervous saying that. I mean he is well... Kakashi. Konoha's genius and..

Plot armor filled main cast.

A lesson from when I reincarnated in konoha. Never underestimate someone mentioned in the anime. I don't know if it's just plot armor or they are simply just the people who had a reason to be mentioned. Probably the latter.

Somehow in the tenseness of it all, the silver haired shinobi chuckled coldly glaring at me with a glint of killing intent.

"I can't be too careless, right? You're rather famous, Reiko-san or should I say..."

"  Legendary cursed weaponsmith, Reiko Hachigatsu, either come under lady hokage's orders or die here."

I couldn't help but chuckle bitterly inside as I channeled chakra into my blade.

Let's answer the question shall we?

"You should thank Lady Hokage for even having mercy, Reiko-san. A rogue-nin like you should have been killed without hesitation."

The chunnin beside him said as began readying his hand signs. In the shadows I can sense several anbu in the trees.

It's so funny really. Is the price to just live freely this costly?

Both of the one's who kept me in a tight chain are dead yet just why?

I'm not even a jinchuriki....

I have no special powers either...

Everything I have ever been was just someone desperate to survive in this accursed world..

Wonder how it turned out like this? Funny. I don't know myself. Let's start from the beginning shall we?
