Proluge: Five

In some humans there is an abnormality in their genes. It may be caused by demon blood, inbreeding or just freak mutations. These changes resulted in powers that are unique to a bloodline. These ‘bloodlines’ have manifested in numerous ways from eyes that can see through everything, to bones that can be manipulated at will. These people are also seen very differently. In water country they are feared and hated. In fire country they are revered and honoured.

“And Hinata’s missing too…” he thought grimly. “The ANBU have been unable to find any trace of them! If Naruto can elude ANBU for over two days he must have crossed over the border, or he’s dead.” The Third placed his head in his hands. “Arashi, I have failed you.”

Water Country

A small boy with black hair wandered through the snow. “Dad! Why did you try and kill me? Am I a monster like you said? One of those ‘Clan People?” The boy glanced behind him at a small shack with huge shards of ice piercing the walls and roof. “Goodbye Mom.”

Kaguya Clan Compound

A boy with pale skin, white hair, and two red dots above his eyes sat hunched over in an underground cell, repeatedly stabbing the wall with a bone sword. “Why am I here? Did I do something wrong?” He did not even pause as a hand shoved a tray of food through the door. “What is it like out there? Is fighting the only thing I’m supposed to do?” He paused and stared at the lock. “How will I know unless I find out?” He walked up to the bars and jammed his sword into the lock and turned. The lock clicked and the door swung open. “I’m going to find the answers no one will tell me.”

Sunagakure

A boy with red hair wandered through the endless desert. He had black rings around his eyes suggesting lack of sleep, and the kanji for love tattooed on his forehead. “No one loves me! I only love myself!” Sand swirled around the boy in an earthen haze. “My mother will protect me. My reason for living… Is to kill everyone!”
