The Dovah Shinobi

Chapter Five

Explanations

"Hey, Itachi-San, did you see what that girl did?" A curious voice questioned, drawing the gaze of coal black eyes.

"Hn." This answer seemed to satisfy the first figure that had spoken as he leaned against a massive sword, chuckling.

"Well, what do you think?" He coaxed, attempting to receive more than a 'hn' from his partner for once.

"We need to report to Leader-Sama."

The second stood, equally black hair floating lightly behind him in a long hair tie. A pause followed before the man with strange blue skin slung the sword onto his back as if it weighed nothing, pointed teeth flashing in a grin.

"I'll take it."

"What the hell just happened!?" Naruto screeched as Yaminah furrowed her brow, carefully examining her arm where she had been cut. When she didn't respond the blonde jinchuuriki cried out, "Hey! Why aren't you answering me?! This is important!"

"Shh…" Yaminah hushed him, her gaze returning to the physically healed wound, watching as the purple tint that had spread down her arm receded back to the wounded area before vanishing all together. "Thank you, Alduin…" She whispered, brushing a finger over the previous wound.

"As if I would allow us to die, Meyye. I have plans after I am free. Tamriel is waiting…"

Even as the exhausted dragon spoke Yaminah's ears perked, a realization striking her. 'You gave me the power to immediately shout again…' She spoke, half taunting and half truly shocked.

"If I hadn't you would have died. You are weak."

"Sure…" The Dovahkiin muttered before turning to her team with a genuine smile.

"I gather you want me to explain?" At the blank looks she sighed. "I-I'm sorry I never told you before… I'm the Dragonborn." Her voice was quiet, nervous.

"The… what?" Naruto questioned while the others simply stared.

"The Dragonborn… you know the mythical hero from legend that was meant to kill Alduin the World Eater with the Elder Scrolls and stuff?" Only blank stares answered her words. "The warrior born as half-man and half-dragon, able to harness the power of the Thu'um? The Way of the Voice?"

"What are you talking about?" Kakashi finally spoke up, actually putting his book away for once.

With a sigh Yaminah fell to her knees, hands supporting her upper body weight shakily. "We aren't in Tamriel are we?" She whimpered, wincing when she received the answer.

Of course she knew what the answer would be. Not even Solstheim would have traditions, clothing, or powers this strange.

"A-Alduin…" She gasped, tears welling in her eyes. A hum resounded within her mind. "I-Is there a way for me to go home? Where are we?"

A contemplative silence followed her words in which Yaminah felt Naruto crouch next to her, his face showing clear sympathy.

"I thought your village burned down."

At Sakura's words Yaminah's neon yellow gaze snapped up, startling Naruto into falling back with a squeal.

"You truly believed that story?! May village was destroyed, but not where and why you think it was." Extended talons buried themselves in the grass before her, her usual amusing exterior shattering. "It was all my fault." Shaking her head the girl pressed her ears to her head, "And now, just when I find a place where I belong, where I am wanted, it's all taken from me…"
