"Ri-Ri! Pick me up!" A young girl, no older than five, called out to her brother. She had short, rose-colored hair and wide, bright black eyes. The girl wore a bright red dress over top of a black onsie with long sleeves and pant legs that exposed only her feet to the hardwood floors. Her voice was shrill yet lilted as she projected out to the much older sibling before her.
Rihan chuckled to himself before giving in to the tiny, tyrannical demand of his baby sister. She was getting a bit more difficult to pick up as she'd started her training, gaining muscles she hadn't had before. Her arms wrapped around his neck in a death grip as her mout
Stomp. Crunch. Whoosh.
He could feel goosebumps prickle his skin as the wind rushed by him at lightning speeds. The way his stomach dropped with every jump and bound, from branch to branch, only enticed him to move faster. His vision was both clear and blurred, picking out just enough to recognize the familiar trees, yet it was all a bunch of colors. Greens, browns, and the occasional blimp of color either from a passing animal or plant would whoosh by his line of vision. The sound of rushing wind and rustling leaves made him grin beneath his mask, hiding his emotions from everyone--even his comrades. It had been awhile since he'd been in th

Naruto: The Darkness Rises - Chapter 1
The moon shone brightly above a darkened forest, the silver light bathing the deserted path below in its radiant glow. The trees around were very tall, their bulk and height helping to obscure the path below. No animals seemed to stir aside from an owl or two, the sound of insects the only really discernible sign of any animal life. The scene was calm and peaceful, if only for now.
The idyllic scene was interrupted by the sound of panting, of footsteps. A figure dashed across the path below, a shinobi of Konoha, heading through the forest as quickly as it could. From the way it was running, it was clear the figure was in a state of panic

Chronicles of the Hidden and Lost: Chapter 1
"This way. The Village should be nearby." A group of shinobi from Konoha nodded grimly as they ran quickly through the forest. They were on a mission and they had to move quickly; if detected or discovered, not only were their lives in jeopardy but they knew that things would go downhill for everyone involved as well. With this as incentive, the group of eight ninjas picked up speed as they neared their target.
Their mission was very simple: as relations had soured between the Five Great Shinobi Countries and the Five Hidden Countries of the Shinobi, Konoha had decided to act before there was any chance of anyone from the Five Hidden Count

It was beautiful. The sun was shining but it wasn't in the least bit hot. In fact, the autumn weather was starting to come around the corner. The trees in the village were starting to dip their leaves in gold, the weight of it causing them to fall off. The breezes would have an icy stab as they passed by and people seemed to reduce their training time.
Rihan sat on a bench after a long walk. Cold days like this one were perfect for taking walks considering there were barely any people on the street. He had walked around the entire village just emp

Benkei Hotokegi - Seduction Week 3
Magenta eyes had widen and the pencil that Benkei was using had slipped through his fingertips. His hand began to shake as he watched the scene before him. The Mikokage...was kissing the Seals class teacher. Benkei couldn't believe what he was witnessing and he heard Kobiru-sensei yell out in surprise, and turned to see him.
"Oh no fair Ei-chan!" the newly arrived Hade pouted at the doorway, before quickly jumping in, grabbing hold of a stunned and startled Joshua, who moments earlier had simply been planning on arriving early to his classroom to set up for his lesson that day. "I'm next!" Hade declared, spinning Joshua around, devilishly sm

Benkei Hotokegi - Convert Opts Week 2
In the Convert Opts class, Ran Medo was going over the assignment that the class would be doing today.
"All right, class. Today's training is all the power of disguise. On some missions, 9 times out of 10, you can't be yourselves and you will learn how to do a simple disguise transformation. Your objective will be to transform into your opposite gender."
"HUH?!?!?" The entire class exclaimed in an uproar.
"You mean...you want the girls to be boys and the boys to be girls?!?!" Benkei asked, hoping that his sensei was just playing a cruel joke on the class.
"Well, yeah, pretty much." Ran said with all smiles, but this made Benkei slump his

~Aftermath of the Party~
Ken finishes making breakfast for everyone. Hidan, Kisame, Deidara, Tobi and Ken take their breakfast outside to eat and watch Mayumi do whatever she is doing. The others stay inside and eat at the table. Since I'm not hungry, I get a few garbage bags and starting cleaning the house from last night's mess.
"Can we help, we don't like pancakes."
"If you want," I reply with a smile.
Zetsu nods, takes a garbage bag from me then walks over to the house plants. For a second I watch as he removes garbage from the plant pots. Holding back a yawn, I start picking up the scattered garbage.
