I took a stroll through the new village at late night. The village was very calm, there were just some kids running around and playing, or else it was very calm.

I ended up at an alleyway so I deciding to rest a bit. I took out a cigarette from my back pocket and tried lit it but someone threw a coral shuriken and cut my cigarette in half, making it useless for a good smoke. I examined the coral shuriken and realized immediately who threw the shuriken.

"It is a strict smoke free village. If too many people smoke then this village is done for it" Omi appeared from the shadows.

"My smoke isn't dangerous" I said and she looked confused.

"Of course it is? It's bad chemicals you inhale and exhale?" She argued but I just chuckled.

"My smoke becomes clear when I exhale. My chakra cleanse and gets rid of the bad chemicals" I explained but she still stared at me. She probably doubted.

"Did you sent out the Yamakage's daughter after me?" She changed the subject.

"Hm? No?" I said and took out an another cigarette from my pocket.

"How do know her? She seemed to be very pissed that you were hurt?" Aiko's a weird kid. Seeing me as some kind of important person to her for no reason.

"We don't really know each other to be honest" I lied and lit up the cigarette and took a puff.

"Sure? She seems to care for you"

"It's just because we're from the same village, that's all" I explained and took more puffs from the cigarette.

"You're lying." She simply said and leaned on the lamppost.

"What do you want from me?" I asked.

"A story time. We don't have to hurry. Now tell me the truth." She said and sat down on the ground like a little kid. I thought it was weird that this person was the same ninja that also tried to kill me.

"Sure. The girl who tried to attack you, is Aiko. Her family took care of me because I was new to the village. I didn't really live with them but Aiko's Mother watched over me"

"So you're not originally from the 'Hidden Mountain Village'?" She asked and I nodded.

"I lived in the forest before. But Aikos mother found me and took me to their village."

"Then there's no mystery why Aiko cares for you. She probably sees you as a sister." I flinched when Omi said that certain word. A word that I didn't really liked.

"That was a short story. Tell me an another story, tell me about yourself!" She said excitedly, like some kind of child.

"There's not much to know about me.." I said and took out an another cigarette from my back pocket.

"You're probably full of secrets. Tell me about  your clan, what clan are you from anyways?" I giggled and lit up my second cigarette.

"My clan doesn't even have a name, no one knows it's name. But there's something with our chakra."

"And that is?" She kept questioning.

"Members from my clans has unique bodies that makes us constantly absorb natural energy without the training of senjutsu, it's thanks to our enzymes in our bodies. But the constant intake of natural energy makes us go berserk. I'm an exceptional because my enzymes isn't strong as my other clans members so I don't get too much natural energy, so I rarely go crazy."

"That's why you didn't go insane when we fought."

"Yeah" She nodded understandingly.

"How come you lived in the forest? What happened to you biological parents?" It annoyed me that the girl kept asking me things.
