A ninja to remember

Training and Battles

"There's no way that this old lady is the new Hokage!" Naruto cried, one foot in my ramen.
"Naruto! If you don't get your muddy shoe out of my ramen I will make sure that when you become Hokage you will have no legacys" I growled, menacingly, glaring at him menacingly.

He giggled, scratching the back of his neck, sitting down again after taking his foot away nervously.

"And who're you?" Asked the lady. She had blonde hair, as golden as sunlight tied in two pigtails that reached her shoulderblades. Brown, kind eyes that scrutinised my soul when I made eye contact. She wore a green jacket, over a grey v neck shirt that showed a bit of her big breasts. She looked incredibly like Sandā, except a taller kinder version. She also looked like she could be some ones granny, or a really old aunt.

"Oh sorry! I'm Sora Daniels. It's nice to meet you Lady Tsunade" I said to her, bowing my head slightly. She nodded in reply, taking a sip of her sake. Naruto grumbled beside me, his anger almost coming to its boiling point.

"Naruto, if you don't shut up, I will ram my dinner down your throat" I growled lowly at him. I need to calm down, I'm too emotional today. As the meal progressed, Jiraya explained why we came to get Tsunade.

"And also she can fix Sasuke and Kakashi sensei" Naruto cried, grinning happily.
"Wait what happened to Asshat?" I asked, already knowing about Kaka-Baka.

"You didn't know? He came and was attacked by his brother!" Naruto exclaimed.
"Oh so that's what I saw in the chapter before last" I muttered to myself. "Fourth wall break, within a fourth wall break" deadpool sang, sticking his head through a portal. I whacked him with a hand, making him go back to shagging his wife.

I zoned out, concentrating on my food until Sandā came up in the conversation.
"So have you seen Sandā?" Tsunade asked Jiraya, sipping her sake.

"She's my trainer" I exclaimed, suddenly brought back to earth.
Tsunade raised her eyebrow in surprise as Naruto, stupidly, challenged Tsunade to a battle.

We stood outside, an alley way to be exact. Both fighters stood away from each other, Naruto spewing random things and Tsunade bragging that she could beat him with one finger. I zoned out, not wanting to listen and finally snapped out of it when Tsunade made a bet.

"If you can master that jutsu of yours, I'll admit I was wrong, and I throw in my necklace" she exclaimed.

"Oh brother" I mumbled.

-two days later-

"Sora. Sora. Sora get up" a voice whispered, shaking my sleeping form. Sitting up, I peered through the dark, making the outline of my teacher.

"Sandā? What are you doing here?" I asked sleepily, attempting to not wake up the others.

"I found our target, come on" she whispered, getting me up. I looked around the room, Tsunade not in it. Jiraya slept, giggling every now and then. Naruto sprawled over his blankets, murmuring about ramen.

I smiled and followed my teacher, out of the hotel and to god knows where.
"Where are we going?" I called to her.
"I spotted our target with his associate and Tsunade" she called back.

"How do you know Tsunade?" I asked.
"Because, she's my sister" she replied, my eyes growing wide in realisation.
"The why weren't you considered for Hokage?" I called.
"Because," she drew back to run along side me, "I wouldn't be able to train you" she said, smiling.

We kept running, passing buildings and fields until we came across a big one, huge, the great expanse stretching far into the distance. I'm not even sure whether you could still call it a field.

Three people, stood in the middle, facing each other.
"TSUNADE! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" Cried Sandā, running towards the three.

I followed but stopped in front of the sneering male before me.
"Ahh the little Sandā come to save her sister. And what's this you brought a little protégée" hissed the man, making my eyes widen a bit more.
"Orochimaru" growled Sandā, standing protectively in front of her sibling.

"You. You. You cursed Sasuke" I shouted, clenching my fists.
"Oh still on about that? I thought you would have been thinking about something else. Say your parentage perhaps?" He hissed again.

"No. You're not my father. You're not my dad" I muttered.
"Oh but you see I am. That's why you have those teeth of yours" he said, walking towards me, Sandā tensing her defensive position.

"No. You're not" I muttered again, memories coming back again.
"Yes, I am" he answered.

"NO YOURE NOT. I HAD TO LET MY FATHER GO! I HAD TO WATCH HIM DIE! I HAD TO WATCH AS THE DISEASE HE HAD ATE HIS BRAIN FROM THE INSIDE! I HAD TO WATCH AS HE LOST USE OF HIS RIGHT SIDE. I HAD TO WATCH AS HE WAS CODLED. OK?! SO DONT YOU FUCKING DARE SAY THAT YOU ARE MY FATHER! YOU HEAR?! DONT YOU FUCKING DARE" I screamed, startling every one around me.

"You don't know what I've been through" I whispered, falling to my knees.

"You're not my father" I hissed at him, clenching my hands as the memories I had been keeping for three years, made themselves known to me.

And as those images, those times went through my head, I fought, I fought him. I fought myself, I fought my anger out.
