-Hidden Abilities-

After a few weeks of staying with Hitoshi and Amida-san you got accustomed to the simple life they had. Mostly Hitoshi was away fishing while granny Amida tends on the plants, raising vegestables and fruits in their backyard along with some chicks and hogs.

They also taught you new things, like farming and fishing. On occasion you go with Hitoshi to deliver some of the harvest to the market place. But most of the time you stay with Amida, helping her with the household chores and tending to the animals.

Many months pass by and you found yourself on a farside of the forest. Hitoshi had bought a piece of land on the highlands to raise more crops.  And you voluntered to help out as this part of the land is steeper and you can't allow Amida to walk along the dusty road for it would be dangerous for her, mainly because of her age.

"What are you talking about? I'm not old!"

Amida waved her staff and hit Mizuki on her head. She was strong, her strength is like that of a teenager with a lean muscular skin-tonned body.

"Awww...mother I'm not saying your old."

Mizuki touched her head feeling a small lump as she sat on the floor. She had just got home from visiting the new spot Hitoshi had bought.

"Oh, hey nice muscles you have there. Say, you must be very strong before."

She poked the elder's muscles, feeling how hard they still are even at her aged state.

"You know what, let me tell you a story."

Amida sat on a wooden bench next to the door. She looked away, reminiscing in her past as she continued to speak.

" I am once a ninja, a kunoichi of the hidden mist."

"Really???"

Mizuki's eyes widened...

"My father is one of the Mitsukage's guards. At that time it was war, and the only way for a family to survive is for them to have a shinobi in a family. Being a ninja pays off real good. Me and my siblings have everything we need not lacking an inch. But of course nothing last in this world."

She sighed as she flick her fingers.

"When my father died in battle my mother was devastated. Our whole village was attacked by some foreign rouge ninjas and they looted everything they could get. After that they burned all the houses and killed everyone they saw in the streets."

"At that time I was on the training grounds with my teammates, working on a new jutsu when the news reached us. I ran home as soon as I heard but when I saw our house it was all in ashes. None of my siblings had survived, not even my mother."

"I became an orphan, and my team mates are the only family I had. I worked hard on my training perfecting everything taught on us until the graduation day came."

"That time there was only one way to pass as genin, and it is, to kill everyone on your batch."

Mizuki took a deep breath as horror filled her throat. She was stunned sitting on the floor like a rock.
