A New Kind of Shinobi (SK Fanfiction)

Part 1 Chapter 4 The Chained Door

(Drake's Pov)

As I drift off to asleep, I find myself in a long dark hallway, making my way down it, it almost feels endless. It doesn't take long for me to reach the end of it, there I find a black door locked up tight with glowing white chains. There were so many of them on the door I couldn't keep count all of them. I tried looking around, but I didn't see any other kind of door, or even a window.

Drake: 'Weird, what is this place?'

But before I could do anything else, I heard what sounded like moving coming from behind the chained-up door. I put my ear up to it to see if I couldn't hear anything on the other side. No luck.

Drake: "Hello."

Unknown Girl: "Drake. Drake is that you."

Drake: "Y-you know my name. Who are you?"

???: "Oh, course I do, why wouldn't I-...Wait, don't you remember me?"

Drake: "Sorry, I don't exactly know a lot of talking doors."

???: "You mean you don't recognize my voice. Anything?"

Drake: "Sorry. Your voice doesn't ring a bell."

She seems to stay silent for a moment.

???: "THOSE FUCKING BASTARD!!! WHAT DID THEY DO?!?!"

Drake: "Wait, calm down for a second okay."

???: "..ke...p."

Unknown Girl: "Calm down! How am I supposed to calm down after..."

She sounds like she wants to say something more, but something is stopping her.

Drake: "After what?"

???: "W.k...u."

Unknown Girl: "After-"

Homura: "WAKE UP!!!"

I got thrown out of my bed by someone and landed hard on the floor. Talk about a wakeup call.

Drake: " Oh shit, where the hell am I?"

Homura: "Hebijo, where else idiot."

Drake: *groans* "I just had a really weird dream. At least I think it was a dream."

Homura: "Well shake it off, we've got training today. And trust me you don't want to be late."

Drake: "Oh come on, how bad could it be?"

Small Time skip

(Narrator POV)

In the training grounds Drake is thrown and pinned to the ground by Hikage, while Suzune, Mirai and Yomi watch from the sidelines.

Drake: "I guess it can get pretty bad."

Rin: "You seem to be off today, Drake."

Drake: "Sorry sensei. I had a really weird dream last night. So, I guess I didn't get much sleep."

Rin: "Well you'll have to pull yourself together quickly."

Drake: "Yes ma'am."

Rin: "For now go train with Haruka and Homura, that should get you mind back into place. Return once you've got a handle on yourself."

Drake: "Yes ma'am."

The male shinobi made his way to the other side of the training grounds where he saw Homura fighting multiple wooden dolls that seemed to be controlled by Haruka. Homura looked like she was wielding six swords, somehow holding three in between the fingers of both her hands. Kind of reminds me of a comic book character. While she was fighting, he noticed Homura also fought with fire in some of her attacks.

Drake waited until Homura finished off the last of the dolls, then Homura noticed him.

Homura: "What are you doing here?"

Drake: "Suzune-sensei sent me here cause I'm a bit distracted."

Haruka: "By what?"

Drake: "A weird dream I had last night."

Homura: "Well I just got done with my training, 3 minutes and 47 seconds."

Haruka: "Wow, that's quite the time."

Drake: "Yeah, good job."

At that moment Drake got an idea.

Drake: 'Time for a little friendly competition.' "Bet you I can bet your time."

Haruka: "Oh, how bold of you."

Homura: "Oh really. You think you can beat my time."

Drake: "Yep, and if I win you have to answer one of my questions."

Homura: "And if you can't beat it."

Drake: "Then I'll take you out to lunch and pay for your meal."

Homura: *starts drooling a bit* "Are you serious?"

Drake: "I'm a man of my word."

Haruka: "Are you sure that's a good idea?"

Drake: "Of course." 'I mean, she can't eat that much can she?'*offers handshake* "Deal."

Homura: *gulps and shakes his hand* "Deal."

With the deal made Drake made his way to the center of the training grounds, and Homura stood next to Haruka. Once he got to the center to the training field Haruka summoned multiple wooden dolls. Some of them were even armed with weapons.

Drake: "So, you can control all of these puppets at once."

Haruka: "Of course. I've had a lot of practice thanks to Suzune-sensei, she taught me everything I know."

Drake: "Huh, cool."

Without any warning one of the armed dolls tried to attack him from behind, only for Drake to grab its head with his hand and crush it. 

Drake: "Nice Try."

Then all of the other dolls began attacking, he's able to dodge and block all of their attacks and was even able to cut down a few of them. He continued to parry their weapons with his until one attack slipped through his guard, he's able to dodge it and grabbed its arm, ripping it clean off. Drake uses the severed arm and smashes it into the head of a nearby doll, its head easily caving in under the pressure, he then stabs the arm through the same doll. An unarmed doll tried to attack, but Drake just intercepted its attack with a headbutt, shattering its hand. Then he punched the same doll hard in the face, knocking its head off and into the hands of another one. Two of the dolls tried to attack him at once, but he was able to block their weapons with his. But while he was distracted another doll came up from behind him and attacked, Drake was able to see the doll through his sword's reflection and hardened his body with his aura. The dolls sword broke when it hit his head, Drake turned to look at the doll, grabbed it, and used it to smash the dolls he was currently in a weapon lock with. The remaining dolls all tried to attack him at once, Drake enhanced his sword with his aura and cut through both their weapons and the dolls themselves ending the session.

Drake: "Time!"

Haruka: "Three minutes and ten seconds. It seems like he won Homura dear."

Homura: "SHIT!!!"

Haruka: "Oh I wonder what he'll ask you dear. Maybe something simple, or maybe something more... personal."

Homura had a worried look on her face, as if she was afraid of what he would ask her.

Drake: "I already have something in mind."

Haruka: "Oh due tell deary."
