"Hey, be quiet… He hasn't woken up yet. Let's take its shit and leave." Liam whispered.
"You sure we will not get caught dude, it's not even midnight yet, someone might still be awake." Aaron said back mimicking his tone.
"No one is in this shity part of the town dude let's just take all his stuff and run" Liam whispered a little louder to get his point across. All he got was a quick nod in response as they went deeper into the worn and torn house.
"I found something that might be worth checking," Aaron alerted. He was about to open the cabinet, but he was interrupted by a sound beside him, he glanced over and saw a boy no older than 14 with rags adorning his body, accompanied with hollow eyes peering right at him.
Liam walked into the room at that moment, seeing the short lanky teen shook him for a second then he reached out for his knife. Aaron was frozen still, he did not know where to go from here. He soon saw his partner rush at the boy with a knife and stabbed it through his lungs.
Aaron yelled "WHAT THE HELL MAN WHY THE HELL DID YOU STAB HIM! YOU COULD HAVE JUST KNOCKED HIM OUT."
Liam looked stunned at the knife he stabbed through this poor boy's chest. He was stunned; he did some dirty things in the past. But taking a young boy's life, he did not know how to react.
Before he could make another move, a right-hook landed dead on his jaw. Liam was dazed, the boy tried to hit Liam again, but Aaron had already delivered a punch to the boy's liver, the boy paused giving Liam enough time to recover from the blow however his head was still shaking.
He sent a punch directly into the boy's face. Liam finally got a good look at his face, he looked malnourished and had heavy bags under his eye. He looked ghastly as if he had never had sleep in his life.
Aaron wasted no time and kicked the boy to the ground where they began kicking him repeatedly.
Soon the boy succumbed to his injuries, and he died. The two teens kept kicking him repeatedly till they saw no movement. After Aaron threw up at the stench of blood and the sight before them, they both fled the scene. The two boys were never caught.
Requirement met:
Live a shity life Have no friends
No one remembering you
The last part kinda hurt a bit…But that's beside the point. Where am I, am I dead.
That does not matter, what matters is why is this in my way, what is this doing here, what made it appear in front of me. He looks down and notices 2 buttons.
Yes No
I may as well press yes, what's the worst that could happen.
Blanking out a feminine voice wakes him up.
"Soseki come to the dining room and get some lunch." 'That's not my name?' Looking around and seeing no one around… the room is empty of people with a lot of beds, and the laughter of children could be faintly heard outside.
'I assume I'm in an orphanage. That voice I heard sounded to be a woman, mid 20's maybe that might be the matron.'
The door slowly opened, and the head popped inside the room. It was a boy, a young boy. His face lacked the chubbiness of others his age. He looked lean, lean with some muscle.
It's not obvious but you can see some development in this child. His amber eyes were shining in the afternoon light, boring into mine as he spoke.
"Horodori Soseki, did you not hear Oyari-san? She told you to get to the dining room and eat your lunch." The newly named Soseki nodded his head and was about to walk out but I realized I didn't know where the dining room was.
"Soseki, wait up." He looked back and the boy was not following him. "No way you wake up and not greet me." 'I know him, I don't know his name though… how do I get out of this situation'
"Good afternoon, I just woke up you know, my mind is not in the right place," Soseki answered.
"Oh no it's quite alright, I told the matron to make both of us food so we can eat at the same time, I want to tell you about something" Soseki just nodded
'This boy, are we acquaintances of sorts?' Soseki pondered
"I hurt my leg badly while getting out of my bed, can you help me walk please?" He lied "Oh alright" Soseki thought he could just wrap his arm around his shoulder, but Arashi had other plans. He bent down and held his arm backwards.
"Hop on what are you waiting for, this is training so I can be a stronger ninja than you" he says and then flashes a cheeky grin.
Soseki hopped on his back, and he started jogging to the dinning. On Arashi's back he observed all the important places, like the washroom, the sub-hall, the main hall, and other bedrooms.
'He said something about ninjas…interesting' The two boys made it to Oyari-San and got their lunch.
"Arashi-Kun thank you for bringing Soseki here, that was very thoughtful." The newly named Arashi flashed another grin. "It's no biggie, can I and Sosuke go outside? We need to train a lot if we want to become ninjas."
'There it is again with that ninja thing, where am I.'
"Of Course, you boys go play outside but be careful with Soseki." she warned. "I will," he answered back.
"Hey Arashi." He paused, then looked up at me. "Yah? You need something."
"I think my leg is fine now so you can drop me now." Soseki embarrassedly said.
While they were outside all the other kids were giving them weird stares and looks. 'No way, this kid has been carrying me for over ten minutes with no sign of fatigue.'
Arashi dropped the flustered boy, and they walked over to a corner of the playground. They kept walking for another two minutes and Soseki started getting confused on where we were going.
While they walked, Soseki was taking mental notes and eventually ingrained this path into his head. Soon enough he began to see a clearing, with 3 training posts, and a big river, all surrounded by trees.
"Alrighty, let's get to work," Arashi said. He opened a light brown bag that had obvious dirt marks on it, and said the bag was strapped to his waist.
He brought out a scroll that looked like it was going to wither away any minute. "This will be it, the scroll that will allow us to become ninjas" he said in a jolly manner. "How is that going to help us become ninjas?" Soseki asked in a skeptical tone.
"This scroll will help us unlock our chakra," he said. 'I see we are most likely in Naruto, I remember watching that show as a kid. But where are we in Naruto, and who's body am I in, and what time period is this'
"Oh sweet, how do we do it?" Soseki asked in a childish manner. "All we have to do is read this scroll then we can do some ninjutsu and genjutsu and-"
"Slow down Arashi" Soseki said, "Let's get the basics down first, I heard from a ninja that we have to be strong in both body and mind to be able to properly use chakra" He lied, well not fully. He just lied about hearing it from a ninja.
"Wow that's so cool, you have ninja friends?" Arashi exuberantly asked. "No, just overheard it from a ninja," he answered. "Alright let's not waste any more time chit chatting let's start reading this scroll"
"Chakra is essential to even the most basic jutsu. Through various methods, the most common of which is hand seals, chakra can be controlled and manipulated to create an effect that would not be possible otherwise, such as walking on water, exhaling fire, or creating illusions. Chakra is ordinarily not visible to the unaided eye unless it is highly concentrated or manifested in large amounts. Chakra is created when two other forms of energy, known collectively as one's stamina, are molded together. Physical energy is collected from each and every one of the body's cells and can be increased through training, stimulants, and exercise." Arashi read out loud.
"So, we have to be physically and mentally adept?" Arashi mused, "I guess so, let's keep reading." Soseki advised.
"To unlock your chakra, you need to first meditate, meditation is a way to calm the body and clear your mind. While you meditate, find a warm area, you would know what it is when you find it. After that, focus on that area and pull it out. If you feel it circulating around you good job, you have awakened your chakra"
"That sounds easy enough, we should start meditating," Arashi declared. "Slow down, we might not be physically ready to unlock it. Let's do basic exercises" Alright Arashi agreed but thought in the back of his head 'How vague this told us nothing but the basic theory. Unlocking chakra should be way harder than this'
"Wait a minute, do you know any way to train our bodies?"

A/N: Alright guys this is my first EVER fanfiction. I would like to know how I did. Was it easy to imagen? Did you have trouble understanding some parts? Did you have a good time? I would love to read all the criticism and comments :D.
Fun Fact: Soseki was told as a child when spoken to, and if he spoke out of line he got beat. So, he will rarely initiate conversation with people.
