Born into poverty and raised in the brutal mines of Vesta-7, Aidan has spent his sixteen years toiling under the weight of endless labor, dreaming of a life beyond the rust-colored dunes and oppressive machinery. When his family is lost to the cruel realities of the mines, Aidan’s resolve hardens. He will escape the hellish world that has claimed so much of his life, even if it means defying the powerful elite who see him as nothing more than a tool. But Vesta-7 holds secrets of its own—secrets that could change the course of Aidan’s life forever. Amid the dangers of the mines, whispers of legendary beast masters stir his ambition, and an unexpected encounter with a mysterious force sets him on a path that will challenge everything he’s ever known. With a unique system that grants him the ability to see the evolutionary paths of beasts, Aidan’s future is no longer defined by the shackles of his past. But as he navigates the treacherous world of beast taming, interplanetary politics, and deadly rivals, Aidan must confront the demons of his past, the price of power, and the true cost of freedom. In a galaxy where survival is a battle and power is earned, Aidan must decide what he’s willing to sacrifice to forge his own destiny. --- Author’s Note: This is my first time writing a novel, and I truly appreciate you taking the time to read it.

The MC transmigrates into Narutoverse in the body of a civilian orphan. Luckily for him, the transmigration results in chakra being unlocked. Follow the story of the MC as he grows in power and stabilizes himself into the world of ninjas and trains to be the strongest.  Warning :  1. The MC won't be op for a long time. All his power would be gained via hard work and training over years (so if u want an op mc right from the word go, this one ain't for you) 2. No harem (probably no romance either) 3. There will be a lot of killing (maybe gore too, not sure if I can do gore right though) 4. The story will start slow. Quite a few of initial chapters will be around training, orphanage and academy life, instead of directly becoming a Genin. 5. MC is a careful person, he won't put his life at risk unless there is no other choice. 6. I haven't read (nor will be reading) Baruto. So Baruto plotline won't be considered much in here. What to expect : 1. Smart and consistent MC  2. Lots of training 3. MC manipulating the plot to his advantage 4. A lot of original arcs.  5. Plot will mostly stay the same (at least till Shippuden), but I won't repeat any scenes/dialogues that took place in the manga (as I'm assuming you've already read it). Disclaimer : I don't own Naruto or its characters (except the original characters I create). The image used in the cover isn't mine and belongs to R. J PS : It's my first fanfic, I'm hoping it turns out good. All reviews and constructive criticisms are welcome. Grammar and English should be fine, but I'm not sure how good the dialogues and scenarios will be. Hopefully I'll improve as this fanfic progresses forward.

Bree was a modern girl reborn into the world of shifters, as a bunny. This was obviously a cruel joke since she had died in her previous life by being mauled. In this new world, females were few due to the warlike environment. The different clans would constantly fight over land and resources. Females were considered the most valuable resource. If females refused to find at least two mates by the time they matured, they would be sold. You didn't want to be sold. Sold females were considered property and would get a mark of slavery on them. Because females were so expensive, they were usually bought by whole communities to be shared by unmated males. The mark of slavery prevented them from contracting a mate and therefor accumulating power and territory. You needed to create a strong home by contracting with powerful shifters. After contracting, they would receive your mark and become your champion. They would fight for your honor, use their magic ability for your benefit, and provide for you. In return, you were expected to produce eggs. Males could be the leader of a clan, but a female could take over large territories by contracting the strong clan leaders. After expanding her territory, a female would be considered nobility. The stronger their champions, the better their resources and territory. Larger area's typically had one queen female and her court made up of nobility. Every double full moon, they would fight for the honor to have their female enter the queen's court. At the end of the queen's reign, she could choose a new queen from her court. In the midst of all this, Bree discovered her own magic power, 'Otome Gamer.' While Bree is trying to fulfill her quests, and an ultimate goal that would change everything, a frightening darkness is spreading, and shifters start to dissappear. Along her journey, Bree makes friends and discovers that fated mates actually exist.
