Orochi Risu
S-rank
The sky was gray, it was surely about to rain very soon. A chilly wind blew through Konoha no Sato's cemetery, making some leaves that had not yet been decayed swirl up, dancing in the wind like a school of fish in the waves of the sea's water. A beautiful display of a rather moderate winter.
It was there, in front of the monument made for those who had died for the sake of the village, a youn girl, dressed in a beige half-length kimono with fishnet nylon undergarments was silently burning some incense to honor those fallen heroes of the village, both the nameless and the legendary ones, yet in her case, she mainly mourned for the mother and father she had hardly known.
This young, still blossoming woman, was not just anyone, but the current head of the Ouroboros clan, or at least, she would be when she would turn eighteen, which was in about two years time.
Her name was Orochi Risu, daughter of Orochi Asa and Yasani Kota, noble representative of the Ouroboros clan, Lady of the Orochi family. However, for her, all those titles and honorifics were meaningless. She had proven this, by living on her own, away from her clan, having decided that she could only be the head of the clan if she was recognised by the village iltself.
But there, at that monument, those thoughts of the future were overwhelmed by feelings for the past, long coveted and treasured memories of a life she would never have again; that of a happy young girl with a loving mother and a gullible father.
"Why mother, why father?" Risu whispered softly, the sound of her voice filled with the pain and sorrow that came with the loneliness of a loveless life. A few tears rolling down her immaculate white cheeks."Why did you have to accept that mission?"
She remembered that moment, that unbelievably painful moment in her life, where all the happiness, all the ignorance of youth and all the bliss of family had been roughly torn away from her existence.
When she had turned nine years old, she had already managed to graduate from the Academy and as she was walking home with a few of her friends, all of a sudden two ANBU members appeared and asked her if she was Orochi Risu, daughter of the late head of the Ouroboros clan.
Though she remembered that she did not understood it back then, now she fully well knew that they had already given a quiet hint to the sad news they had been ordered to bring to her; the untimely death of her parents, who had been slain on a mission of great importance.
The young woman wiped away her tears and turned around, walking away from the monument, contemplating what she wanted to become, what her goals were and more important, what she wanted for her clan.
Her head tilted slightly upwards, her snakelike eyes locking upon the immense rockformation upon which each and every Hokage had their face etched for all eternity, her slender, white left arm stretched out, her hand grasping in the air, as if she wanted to grab a hold to the face of the current Hokage.
"One day, The Genin said with a surprisingly steady and calm voice. "One day I'll be the Hokage, one day I'll end all the pain and suffering of my clan...no, of the entire village. When I'm Hokage, all of those tears I've shed in my life will have had a meaning.
