The Rival
Ken was alone for a time. He didn’t know where to go. He abandoned everything, his father, his village…his team, his sensei.
I've been walking for several days now. That boat I was on, the crew didn’t notice who I am which was perfect, but my food is almost gone. Need to replenish it.
*Somewhere near hidden ash*
“I’m so hungry and tired of walking around like a fool“
“Wait.“
“Is that a village?“ – Ken saw a small village with no more then a block of houses
“Maybe I’ll pay them a visit“
*He knocked on the first house*
“Hello“ – answered an old man
“Hello old man I’m hungry. Can I use your food stand ?“
“What kind of question I tha-“
Ken pierced his sword through his chest without thinking. The old man was spitting blood unable to breathe. He pounded on the floor.
Ken unable to think clearly went straight to his food stand and while he was eating he heard a scream. The scream came from the stairs.
“I didn’t know this old man had a wife!“ – thought Ken
When he arrived at the stairs he saw a little girl. Scared for her life she ran out the front door. Screaming. Every citizen of the small village came out their houses wondering what the scream is. They all went and comforted the small child. Amongst those people Ken saw a girl Jonin looking ninja.
“What is it Azumi? Why are you crying? Where is Atsushi?“ – asked the citizens
“He was… lying on the floor. There was blood everywhere“ – told the little girl
“That man.. OVER THERE! He killed him I saw it“
“She pointed at me. Of course. Now!“ – Ken drew his sword
But before he could do anything the girl Jonin ninja dashed at him with incredible speed.
“WHAT? She is this fast?“ – Ken hardly dodged her attack
“So you are a Jonin?“ – said Ken
“Of course I am! And by the looks of it you are a wondering little rogue from... WHAT?“ – said the girl
“Your headband! You're from Hidden Snow! How many days were you walking to come this far!“
“That's not important little girl! I'm going to kill you now and that's what's important!“ - said Ken
“I was looking for a challenge anyways! This would’ve been to easy!“ – said the girl
They both clashed with incredible speed. Still holding their swords up Ken threw a kunai.
“You need to do better than that to defeat me you rogue!“
She dashed at him again.
“DAMN!?“- said Ken
“I got you!“ – said the girl while the sword was going through Ken’s leg
“AHHH!?“ – Ken’s leg was bleeding
“That wasn’t planned“ – thought Ken
“Now is my chance to kill you once and for all ROGUE!“
She dashed at him once again
“I knew she would do it again!“ – Ken withdrew his sword and made hand signs for a water release
“WHAT?“ – the girl was unable to stop from her incredible speed.
The water release sent her flying with speed through a whole house, through wood planks and bricks. She started bleeding.
“I need to catch my breath and hide!“ – said the girl
“Too late“ - said someone from behind her
“How did yo-“ - said the girl spitting blood
Standing right behind her was Ken piercing his sword through her chest! Again and again. Playing with her while she spited blood everywhere.
“HAHA! This WAS too easy!“
“Now for the villagers!“ – Ken went to every house slaughtering every citizen. Blood everywhere.
He saw the small little girl who screamed earlier.
“There is no one who will save you now little girl. Even if you scream and run. Nobody will come to your rescue.” – said Ken while pointing the sword to the little girl
“N-no.. please don’t do this…PLEASE!!” – said the little girl while crying
“I’m sorry but you’re a witness and I’m trying to lay low for a while. Im truly sorry, im not fond of killing children. But…”- ken said while quickly piercing his sword through the little girls throat.
“I ended it quickly, so you don’t feel a thing.” – said Ken sadly and with a serious look.
“Time to destroy this village with my new water ninjutsu i've been working on.“
“Hm? Someone is coming!“ – Ken saw a Jonin with blonde hair and black clothing
“I can’t fight now because of my injured leg! And I used some of my chakra fighting that girl! I'm not ready for another fight! Not NOW!“
Ken tore off his shirt and split it and made a rag. He took the rag and took care of the bleeding.
“There that should hold it until I finish this one too! I won't do any ninjutsu though! All my trust is in this sword now! Sensei...“ – thought Ken
“What happened here!? Someone! Is someone STILL ALIVE! HELP!!!!!“ – shouted the Jonin while holding the other Jonin girl that Ken slaughtered.
“So she was your friend ?“ – Ken asked
“HA?! Who are you! Are you a medic ?“ Please HELP ME!“
“Nop. I’m the one who did this.“ – said Ken while having a smile
“Wha-? You? Just you !? You slaughtered a small village!? THIS IS A FUCKING BLOOD BATH!”
“For what PURPOSE !?“
“Well.. I was hungry.“ – said Ken and started psychotically laughing
“YOU!!“ – the jonin drew his kunai and started running towards Ken
“HA! This should be quite eas-! AAAH!“ – damn I can’t move my leg! My leg!
Well this is it for me! I can’t move and my arm hurts too for some reason! I can’t take out my sword!
As Ken thought that to himself he looked at the Jonin running towards him and closed his eyes.
But then a noise came from one of the houses and blacked robe ninjas came out and pushed away the Jonin.
“HM!? Who are you?“ – asking Ken though he didn’t receive an answer.
“ANSWE-“ – someone knocked out Ken from behind. Ken fainted and closed his eyes once more.
The Organization With The 7 Deadly Sins
Ken woke up feeling dizzy. He was in a room. He saw nothing but walls and a bed that he was lying in.
“Can you walk?“ – someone asked
“Who’s there? Where am I ?“ – asked Ken
“My name is
Kazuki Himitsu. My teammates rescued you.“
“Now I remember. Wait Himitsu!?“ - Ken was surprised
“Yes we are clansmen from different villages. I saw the logo on the back of your shirt.“ - said Kazuki
“Tell me. Who was that Jonin who tried to kill me ?“ - asked Ken
“Hm? Apparently his name is
Sanji Amigake. He joined
Rōguhantā recently. “
“Rōguhantā?“ – asked Ken
“Yes an organization we are up against.“- Kazuki
“So, am I in a village now?“ – asked Ken
“No, you are in one of my hideouts.“
“Hideouts?“- asked Ken confusingly
“Yes, if you didn’t tell I am like you. A rogue ninja. “
“If you expect some payment because you rescued me, please don’t. I don’t have anything on me.“
“Oh, I know. Though I didn’t expect payment from you from the moment my team rescued you“
“So what do you want ?“ – asked Ken
“For you to join us.“ - Kazuki
“HM?“ – Ken surprised
“I saw your fighting skills when you fought the girl. You impressed me. Tell me. Do you have a goal now that you went rogue?“ - Kazuki
“No, actually I don’t. I went rogue because everybody were dragging me down. My former teammates didn’t listen to any of my commands. “ – said Ken
“And my father.. he was on missions all the time, he didn’t have any time for me.” – whispered Ken to himself
“Commands? So you were team captain?“ – asked Kazuki
“Yes I was.“ – replied Ken
“That’s excellent! We need strong ninjas like you in our organization!“ - Kazuki
“Organization!?“ – asked Ken
“YES! We are Katakiuchi! An organization with a goal to destroy the Kages and rid of their corrupt village system. We will unite the world under our banner. Since you don’t have a goal you can help us achieve ours. And by the way we don’t have weak ninjas. All are elite trained ninjas who listen to orders!“ - Kazuki
“Hmph.. I’m not betraying a master for another master!“ – said Ken
“Well that’s the thing I want you to be a member of our council! If you pass an exam we have for you.“- Kazuki
“Council? Exam?“ – asked Ken
“Yes. We are seven member council called Yugure! We are named after the seven sins. You don’t betray a master you will be a master.If you’re up for it of course, and if you pass this exam we have planned to see if you’ll be able to hold your position as one of the council. You can have your own team. Help us and we can provide shelter for you and food and if we achieve this goal you will have more than that, I promise! NOW COME!”- said Kazuki
“Eh, what do I have to lose.” – thought Ken
-They’ve entered a room that looked like an arena of some kind.-
“Ken, let me introduce you to the other contestants that want a position in our council.” – said Kazuki
There were 3 of them
“Hey kid, when I kill you, I’ll eat your heart.” – said one of them
“Be my guest, its cold like the weather in hidden snow, so I hope you choke with it.” – replied Ken while laughing
“Now, now save this for later in the arena. Or should I say now.” – said Kazuki
“You will all go in, the last man standing will become the new Lust of Katakiuchi”
“Right there, that’s the council for now.”
“You told me you were a seven member council, all I see right there are seven chairs and 2 people hiding in the shadows. And with you that makes 3.” – replied Ken
“Yes, well we aren’t complete, this way we will know who is the strongest and we will recruit more members to join our council.” – replied Kazuki
“I’ll introduce them later, if you survive of course. Now if you excuse me I’ll join the council and watch the show.”
“These guys seem tough, need to be careful, I’ll wait for them to finish each other off, or take one at a time.” – thought Ken
“Ok, open the arena!” – said one of the council members
The huge door opened and all of the contestants went right in.
“Don’t start until I say so” – said one of the council members
Everyone stood on opposite sides of each other, forming a circle.
“That big guy is the problem…If I can take him, or if the other guys gang up on him first it’ll be much easier.” – thought Ken
“Begin!” – said one of the council members
They all turned to Ken and started running towards him.
“WHA?!” – Ken was surprised by this
They all jumped with their kunai pointing towards Ken
“WATER STYLE! TSUNAMI!” – Yelled Ken and a tsunami appeared behind him sending all other 3 opponents to hit a wall behind them
They found themselves under the water.
“!” – One of them was surprised
The other 2 jumped and used chakra to stand on the water
“Where is Jomo! And where is the guy we are up against?” – asked one of them
“WHAT?” – They saw blood coming from the water. The water was now red from the blood.
“JOMO!” – yelled one of them
“I think we shouldn’t be standing on the water.”
“WHERE IS HE? I’LL KILL HI-“– the guy was interrupted by a water shark coming from beneath his legs, cutting off one leg and one of his arm.
“AAAAAAGHHHH!” - yelled the guy while falling in the water
“One more left…ha!” – said Ken from beneath the water
“I see your friends didn’t make it, pal.” – said Ken
“WHERE ARE YOU!? You COWARD!” – yelled the last guy standing
“They became shark food. Isn’t that fun!” – yelled Ken
“Now, you’re next!”
Coming from beneath the water was Ken with a kunai
“HA! I saw that one coming pal!” – said the guy and he slashed Ken’s throat with it, but he didn’t see blood coming he saw water
“A WATER CLONE?!”
“Behind you…” – said Ken while piercing his shoulder with his katana
“AGH!” – yelled the guy in pain
“Now, here Rex, you know who I call Rex? …………my shark!” – said Ken, while a water shark came from beneath and he threw the guy right in the sharks mouth.
“THAT WAS FUN!!!” – said Ken
“That’s enough! Congratulations survivor.” – said someone from the council
-They all appeared right in front of Ken-
“Now, let me introduce you to the council, it’s not complete we need three more members of course.” – said Kazuki
“This person right here is
Konohuro Kirishima aka. Pride, he is a rogue ninja from the hidden ash, very skilled, don't pick a fight with him and the other one who is standing next to him is
Rayzote aka. Envy from the Yamato clan. And i am Wrath!” – said Kazuki
“Now, come LUST! We have plans to do and people to hunt!” – said Kazuki
“Lust, ha! I love it!” – said Ken with a smile and an evil look on his face.
