The Girl With The Scars {A Naruto FanFiction}

Fire Princess Released Form

Sasuke drags me to Sakura's house. "Sakura-chan, I need you, Ino, Kurenai-sensei, and Hinata to get Hono ready for the festival tonight," he lets me slide off his back. "I know you guy will make her look nice. I'm trusting you girls. I will pick all of you up for the festival along with the rest of the guys at around 7 pm," he walks out of the door waving from behind. Sakura pulls out her phones. "Ino-chan, we have a situation. We need to get Hono-chan all prettied up for the festival tonight. Bring Hinata and Kurenai-sensei too. Okay. Bye," She hangs up the phone. She gives me a once over wondering how to fix this mess. "We definitely are going to do some work on you," she puts her hand on her jawline.

About five minutes later, Ino, Hinata, and Kurenai-sensei are at the door with makeup bags, and yukatas, and shoes. They come in the house and dump everything on the counter top. They give me different soaps to wash my hair and skin with. They shove me into the bathroom and force me to take a bath. "You have great skin. How?!" Ino squeals. "All she needs for a formal look is contouring, eye make up, and lipstick," Kurenai-sensei analyzes. They take only five minutes. They put slightly darker powder under my cheek bones and on the sides of my nose and light on the apples of my cheeks and the bridge of my nose. My eyeliner was an elegant cat eye accompanied by dark red eye shadow base and black eye shadow on my brow bone. My short hair was curled like a 50's movie star. "Wow" Is all I could say. "Now for the kimono," Hinata-chan says quietly. They all go into a room full of yukatas of all different colors. Kurenai-sensei pulls out a white yukata with red roses on it with a black sash. "This one is for you," she hands it to me. "We will help you in just a second. We need to get ours on and apply some makeup real quick," Ino walks out with the girls.

Fifteen minutes later they all come in. "Okay, so I'm guessing you have never put a yukata on," Sakura-chan picks up my yukata. I nod my head in agreement. "Okay take off the robe and we will fix you up. I hesitantly take off the robe leaving me in my underwear. Hinata-chan shrugs the robe part on to my shoulders. I slide on the bottom skirt thing. Kurenai-sensei wraps the robe correctly and Ino ties a bow in my sash and puts a red rose clip in my hair. They all step back and look at me. "You look beautiful in traditional wear!" Hinata-chan compliments. 'Not as beautiful as all of you, though," I murmur. I hear a knock at the door. I look at the clock and it is 7pm. "I'll get it," Sakura-chan runs to the door and opens it. I suddenly became really shy. I hide behind Hinata in her purple yukata. "Hey girls, let's go while we can!" I hear Kiba shout. "Um where is Hono?" Sasuke asks. "She is hiding behind Hinata. Come out Hono-chan!" I hear Naru-kun shout. I slowly peak from behind Hinata. I felt a blush crawl up my face as they all cooed and me. "Hono-chan is so kawaii!" I hear them say. I slowly shrink behind Hinata again. "Uh guys, I thinks we are making her a bit uncomfortable," Choji stops them. "Then let's go!" Naruto yells cheerfully.

We get to the festival and we split into our dates. Apparently they already had this planned out. Since there was more boys than girls, there was two boys to every girl. i clearly wasn't informed. I feel someone grab my hand. "Hono, do you want to be my date for tonight?" Sasuke shrugs and puts his hand behind his head. "Yeah, I'd like that," I smile to myself. I feel my heart flutter. i can't like this guy.. could I? We hold hands and explore the festival. We play games and buy tasty foods. I notice a large crowed gathering towards the stage next to the fishing booth. It was a large risen platform. The hokage is making a speech and we just catch the end of it. We shimmy to the front easily because they notice how small I am. "... I have a request of a certain audience member in the front," we make eye contact. No, it couldn't be me. "In honor of the chuunin exams I will have a new comer to our village perform for us using a talent that she thought not many people knew about. I noticed her training with this several times. And frankly, she doesn't even know about this," he chuckles lightly. That old geezer. No wonder I felt like someone was watching me. "Please bring Hono Moyasu to the stage via side stairs!" he points to me. "Um what?" I get nervous immediately. "Come on, I will take you there," Sasuke begins to drag me out of the crowd and to the side stairs. Oji-sama walks down the stairs to me. "Do the release form and sing a song. They'll love it," he smiles. "You are a real piece of work y'know?" he chuckles and pats me on the back. I walk on stage and it is pure silence. I hear someone play a song a traditional dance song. Of course. I throw my hands out on the beat. I slide one hand up my arms and the other the same way. I cross my arms in am X and as they fall, my yukata seemingly burns into a fiery dress with a delicate crown and cut out heels. I throw up my hand and wave them to the side and as I did balls of fire illuminate the stage. I hear the crowd gasp. I twist my hand and two red lace fans appear. I spin across the stage leaving trails of fires where the fans have been. The dress swirls and swishes with each step. I close the fans and paint the air with fire. I draw each of the village symbols with graceful hand movements. Above the village symbols a draw the kanji for "United". I hear the crowd clap and shout. With a single movement I I slash through it and it disappears. I twirls and leap. I create a fire rose and hand it to a small girls in the front. I form birds and they sweep across the crowds. Some draw back in fear of getting burned. "They won't burn you, See?" I give a lily to the Hokage. The crowed leaps and shout cheerfully at the birds. "Hokage-sama, asked me to sing for you guys today," So I will,"

"Live Like You're Loved"
Hawk Nelson

You're not the only one who feels like this
Feelin' like you lose more than you win
Like life is just an endless hill you climb
You try and try, but never arrive

I'm tellin' you somethin'
This racing, this running
Oh, you're working way too hard!
And this perfection you're chasing
Is just energy wasted
Cause he love's you like you are!

So go ahead and live like you're loved
It's ok to act like you've been set free
His love has made you more than enough
So go ahead and be who he made you to be

And live like you're loved
live like you're loved
live like you're loved
live like you're loved

And live like you're know your value born
Like you know the one that hold your soul
Cause mercy has called you by your name
Don't be afraid to live in that grace

I'm tellin' you somethin'
This God we believe in
Yeah, he changed everything
No more guilt! No more shame!
He took all that away
Gave us a reason to sing

So go ahead and live like you're loved
It's ok to act like you've been set free
His love has made you more than enough
So go ahead and be who he made you to be

And live like you're loved
live like you're loved
live like you're loved
live like you're loved

Live like you're loved, walk like you're free
Stand like you know, who he made you to be
Live like you're loved, like you believe
His love is all, that you ever need

So go ahead and live like you're loved
His love has made you more than enough

So go ahead and live like you're loved
It's ok to act like you've been set free
His love has made you more than enough
So go ahead and be who he made you to be

And live like you're loved
live like you're loved
live like you're loved
live like you're loved

Live like you're loved, walk like you're free
Stand like you know, who he made you to be
Live like you're loved, like you believe
His love is all, that you ever need
Live like you're loved!

They crowd erupts in cheers. To finish of my performance with a bang, I release two large Phoenixes behind me who flap their wings. I spin around holding my hands above me.And with one final raise of their wings, they disappear into ash as I change back to my normal form. I end it with my hand out to the side. What was once pure silence, changed to hoops and hollers. I smile the brightest in my entire life. I truly felt alive. I bow and walk off the stage.

I trot down the stairs and get greeted by Sasuke. His smile shimmers and he grabs my waist while I was two steps from the bottom and spins me around, his arms out stretched. He pulls me into a hug. "I haven't seen anything is beautiful," he lightly grins. "You were amazing," he brushes a strand of hair behind my head. My heart thumps again. "5! 4! 3! 2! 1!" the crowd counts down to midnight. As the crowd erupts in cheers he presses his smiling lips on mine. I gladly accept the kiss. He looks my in the eye. "Will you be only mine?" he springs the question after letting on no sense of attraction prior. But silently, I did like him. He presses his forehead against mine. "Yes," I whisper to him. He holds in his arms for awhile. I have never felt so happy and safe.

He carries me on his back all the way home. When we get to my door, I slide off his back. "Key is in the concrete, Use an earth jutsu to get it if you ever need it," I unlock my door. I turn around and he kisses me. "Goodnight, Hono. I am glad that you are mine now," Sasuke smirks. "Goodnight love, Say how about next week we go on a date," I spring up. "Yeah, that would be nice," he smiles genuinely. "Anyway, don't do somethings that would open wounds!" he instructs. "Yes mom, You too. You got some injuries too!" I laugh. "Yes mam," he pecks my forehead. "See you soon, Hime" he closes the door. I wash the make up off and love the fuzzy warm feeling in my gut. I fall asleep in an over sized shirt on my bed writing in my song book.
