Happy Birthday to me! :)

I own nothing..

I woke up and struggled to breathe, I felt panic spread. Oh, Jashin-sama I'm so fucking stupid. At that moment I realized I actually didn't need to breathe at all. I don't know if I'll ever get used to this jutsu. Fuck my Jashin damned life. It was such an exciting feeling, being unable to breath. Jumping out of the ground I went in search of there was a small river nearby so I settled for a few fish.

I set about gutting them and smearing a herbal paste to prepare them for the fire. Started by a little Katon trick(you couldn't really call it a jutsu) It was just a small fire so I could hide my tracks easily.

I thought about my options while munching on the fish. 'Surely I had somewhere to go?' I didn't want to travel trough the world alone. I knew it would get boring fast. Murder and mayhem was dandy and all, but it was a bit repetitive. I knew there was a Jashinist temple near Yakagure, that's where my uncle was from. My father always spoke with fear and jealousy of Hidan.

I knew finding my uncle was not one of my options, not until I was stronger. He was rumored to be affiliated with a criminal organization, which I would't mind, but I was nowhere near S-rank. I was maybe a jonin level? I'm not sure but taking on chunins like my father was easy.

Since I was in the land of earth now,I would collect a few bounties, get myself some proper equipment and then head to the Jashinist temple.

A few days later I was angry and realized it was easier said then done. No one wanted to hire a pink haired 12 year old in tattered clothing. I took matters into my own hands.

One day I was travelling close to Iwagakure when I spotted my target. He didn't look like much long brown hair slender build. He was dressed in long black pants bandaged down and a torn up brown west. Thanks to my bingo book, which I snatched from an Iwa shinobi yesterday, I knew he was a jonin who defected Iwa a few years ago.

The bounty was a good amount, not too much but enough to get me an inn, clothes and some supplies. He would have to do. I was actually surprised he would venture so close to his village. but the info I had on him stated him to be a thief more than anything. He used-surprise surprise-earth jutsu. No other info was given. For gods sake his name was written in essentials.

I took a few steps closer unveiling my previously hidden chakra signature. A kunai wheezed past me in the next instant. Good he wasn't entirely useless as he seemed. I walked forward with an innocent smile. I saw his face scrunch up in confusion at the sight of a pink haired kid beaming at him. " Good morning Shinobi-san, do you want to play with me?"

"Get lost kid" He snorted in disbelief. Taking out my scratched out hitai-ate and placing it on my head I giggled " We can play ninja!" I yelled out in excitement. Satisfied with his freaked out expression I leaped forward going trough hand signs.

" Raiton-beast running technique:twin" two blasts of lightning shot out forming shape and encircling my opponent from both sides. He jumped away missing them narrowly. His speed was okay but having already anticipated his move I pulled on the wires and he fell right into my trap. In a puff of smoke he was replaced by a log. Shit.

I quickly glanced around before jumping up narrowly missing him. 'Duh earth ninja!' Inner supplied unhelpfully. "Shut up" I growled. Oops was that out loud?

I spun around to face my opponent his fist was easily dogged but he almost kicked me. I swiped at him my hands glowing green. Chakra scalpels were awesome! At first he didn't seem to notice concentrating on our taijutsu I first cut into his chest he seemed surprised.

"you little bitch!" Ah, did that upset him? " I started singing a lullaby, to distract him. It worked as he got infuriated he barely paid attention to his surroundings.

His earth spikes were avoided easily. I made a few clones making them sing to infuriate him further. He went for them kunai in hand thinking I was among them. That's when I took the opportunity to put the rest of my wire to use. He slumped to the ground shouting some nonsense I ignored.

As I sent a simple lighting jutsu along the wire. When he passed out I split my wrist open, not wanting to be left out, creating my favorite symbol. Muttering a prayer I ended his life.

Taking his decapitated head I left to get my reward.

I was so happy when I got a new set of clothes. I had a long sleeved tight black shirt which stopped below my breasts revealing bandages up to my bellybutton, below that i had a pair of red tight shorts below that bandages appeared again this time down to my shins. I also bought a black coat into which I sew a large jashin symbol on the back. Complete with weapon pouches on both thighs.

After a few more bounties and dirty jobs I had no more problems with job offers. Being a missing nin wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. My power increased in the next 2 months as did my reputation. That's when I started getting hunted myself, it was thrilling. I lived for this, the action, the excitement. My appearance in a bingo book was a thrill. I was amazed. Seeing the bounty on my head I almost wanted to turn myself in, I thought amused, but I didn't like the word 'zealot' in my profile.

I decided I would stop playing and head to meet the priests of Jashin's temple soon.
