SALVATION || Naruto Fanfiction || PART 1

Chapter 1: The Beginning

CLASH, CLINK!!

The loud sound of metal could be heard throughout the forest. There he was, Shinori Yoshidao wearing his standard black shinobi attire. His tattered mint green scarf wrapped around his neck. A white haori draped around his body. A sheath on his back, however, no katana was being held. Instead, it was held in his hand as he began panting from exhaustion. Multiple cuts and bruises appeared around his body.

The shinobi was currently clashing his blades with a dark-skinned boy around his age.

"Have you no love for Okami, Hayamiya, or even yourself?" The boy questioned furiously as he pushed against the heavily damaged weapon with his katana. Both fighters were heavily damaged as a result of their prolonged battle.

Shinori leaped back as he knew the strength of his foe and his weapon. The white-haired boy pointed his katana towards the opponent before responding to the question.

"You know the answer to that!" The turquoise-eyed boy replied before dashing towards the opponent, ground by the cement by the sheer force of his movement.

"Do I?" He asked.

The short-haired opposition did the same before locking blades once more. Both blades would begin to glow, Shinori's a mix of white and sky blue while his opponent's a black and leaf green.

AGAIN!?

PRESENT DAY

"SHINORIIII!!!" A viciously loud man yelled as he grabbed the child. As Shinori was grabbed by his sides, his eyes forcibly awakened in disbelief as he was about to be thrown out of his bedroom window!

"What the hell!" The young child asked barely escaping the fate of a broken wrist. Shinori had grabbed the edge of the window just in time. "I told you to stop that!" The soon-to-be Genin swiftly entered back into his room before drop kicking the man straight through the doorway, luckily it was still open and no doors were lost. "You may be my guardian but you may not throw me out my window!" Shinori exclaimed at his brother.

"B..but you were going to be late..." The man murmured as he attempted to get up. Aoto Yoshidao was his name, this was not a rare occurrence, in fact, this happens every morning. He was a tall figure around 6'7, an odd contrast to Shinori who was only 5'7. Like Shinori, Aoto had spiky white hair and turquoise eyes. Their ages also contrasted as Aoto was in his mid-20s whilst Shinori was only about to graduate from the academy in a few months.

"YOOO!" A voice shouted up the stairs before steps could be heard. "WHAT'S ALL THE NOISE FOR! IT'S STILL EARLY!" A dark-skinned figure with short curly hair asked. His hair was a butter blond in the sides which were cut low. The top and back of his head was a basic black. "Like damn can't have shit in this house." He murmured before walking up the stairs. This boy was Inei Yumehane.

"I apologize but if this doofus didn't try to throw me out the window!" Shinori replied before slamming his door on Inei.

"Don't slam your door on me! Don't forget I'm older dumbass!" It was true, Inei was older than Shinori, only by a year. "Also don't forget to head to the shop after the academy, I have a... gift for you." By the tone of this, it probably wasn't going to be good.

"Don't you have missions today?" Shinori said loud enough to be heard through the door. What Aoto said was true, if he had slept any longer he would have been late, luckily he wouldn't be as he is awake now. The white-haired boy was getting ready now. Shinori would be wearing his signature all-black outfit.
