He lunged at her and socked his gauntlet forearm into her stomach. Sakura recoiled and hissed in pain, grasping her abdomen, and tried to dash away as she heard chains rattling behind her. It shot out before she could react and nicked her across the back. Without missing a beat, the ninja shoved her to the ground and pinned her against the dirt, ominously cold metal pressing against her cheek and left shoulder. An unknown chakra rushed down her left arm, which covered her forearm in white feathers and turned her fingertips into wicked hooked claws. Sakura panicked and reached for his neck to immobilize him, but hadn't realized she had claws instead of fingers. Blood splattered everywhere as black talons plunged into the side of his neck. His entire face was filled with shock as he clutched his neck, choking on his own blood. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Spirits: Extremely powerful masses of chakra, and are considered to be the 'opposites' of the nine Tailed Beasts. A group of them called Dragon Spirits came to Earth to live peacefully among humans. But after accidently showcasing their power in an effort to stop a war, they were seen only as killing machines and causes for more conflict. They were sealed up in scrolls, distributed across villages, and forced to seal themselves inside of humans. One of those humans just happens to be a young girl with an abnormal hair color of the Haruno Clan. She befriends the Spirit, and they become the best of friends. What's going to when a young clan girl befriends a powerful spirit? Well, basically anything could happen - that's the mere fun of it. This is a story of a girl who strives to become the most powerful Kunoichi in existence. And she is no ordinary girl. Her name is Sakura Haruno. (I, sadly, do not own Naruto; Kishimoto does.) (Updating each chapter MAY take up to a week or more to finish. The story is edited by my beloved sister, @Craftedbird. )
