Okay Not To Be A Downer But Petitions Wont Do Anything For Lebanon, Reading A Carrd By A Westerner Who

okay not to be a downer but petitions won’t do anything for lebanon, reading a carrd by a westerner who has literally no clue what is going on apart from what the western media has told them won’t do anything for lebanon so it’s better if you read what an actual lebanese person has to say (their views on current political parties do not reflect every person from lebanon’s views, but at least it isn’t feeding into us imperialistic propaganda). signing petitions isn’t helping. please donate. this twitter thread explains why USD donations are important in this situation and provides links to many gofundme’s / other methods of donating. one of them leads to the Lebanese Red Cross app, and this explains in more detail on how you can donate. it isn’t a government organization, and according to people in the replies, the red cross is the best option and though the red cross in other countries have a bad reputation, this is apparently not associated with any other foundation. donating to individual people in lebanon might not work because their currency has been losing its value over the past couple months, so the best option is donate to organizations like Global Impact and the Red Cross, food banks, and gofundmes where the person will make sure the money is converted themselves (not through the website), also i would considering checking this account, they are part of an independently owned Lebanese media/news site and is actively updating their account / setting up new fundraisers and providing resources. make sure to check who you are donating to, you don’t have to donate to EVERYTHING you see but if you actually want to help, do not just sign petitions. donate to people or at least get others to donate if you currently don’t have the means to do so.

Character criticism

Today’s criticism: The entirety of the show Boruto

Hood day/night my children. How are you all? I hope you all are eating your veggies and drinking your water. I hope you all are taking care of yourselves to the best of your abilities and that your all doing well back home, wherever home may be.

Today, we’re going to be tackling the mess that is essentially the anime,Boruto. Basically why it’s not as good as it could be, and why it has potential. I even have an alternative plot for Boruto, and I thought I would share that with you all, my loves.

So first, let’s summarize what Boruto is;

Boruto:next generations is a spin-off show to the Naruto series. A series that once followed the life of Naruto Uzumaki and his fellow friends as growing shinobi, now follows his son Boruto Uzumaki and his friends, who are the next generation of ninja growing up in the shinobi world.

In depth: the setting takes place in a now peaceful shinobi world, where the 5 great nations are no longer at war or no longer have bad blood anymore. Naruto Uzumaki is now the 7th Hokage of Konoha, and Sasuke Uchiha serves as the shadow Hokage, protecting Konoha from the outside. Most of the Konoha 11 have children. These children are learning to be ninja, and are growing up to become extremely powerful each day.

Though this plot sounds very entertaining, it is far from that and the lazy writing shows through many parts of the Anime. Here are some problems I’ve encountered with the plot and characters itself.

1. The children are extremely overpowered- for one, the children in Boruto are too overpowered. One thing that was interesting about Naruto was that we got to grow with the kids and see them develop their powers. Though some were prodigies at a very young age, we got to see them develop even more and we realized that they weren’t too ultra powerful and that they could be beaten. Once we as the audience realized that our beloved Naruto characters were only kids who weren’t all prodigies, the suspense was amped up quite a lot. The chunin exams is a great example. In the forest of death, many of the genin weren’t too powerful, and we saw a lot of genin groups die in the forest of death. We even saw a Sannin, Orochimaru, sneak into the exams and bite Sasuke, which caused the main plot to kick off. A lot of the times, we weren’t sure that our faves would make it out of their life or death situations. But In Boruto, the suspense is not there. We know that most of the kids, especially the 3 main characters, Boruto, Sarada, and Mitsuki are all powerful. There’s no “if” they are gonna make it out. We also don’t get to see much hit or misses from the children. We don’t get to see their trial and error with learning their parents jutsus and developing their own so it’s hard to grow with them. Their powers ensure that they get out of most situations, and it takes away from the hard work their parents did to reach the level they are at. Their powers look rather more genetic (which I’m sure they mostly are), than actual hard work.

2. The next generation-another problem is that the kids are essentially carbon copies of their parents personalities. They aren’t their own selves, which very much annoys me. I rather see the kids be their own person, rather than adapt ALL parts of their parents personalities. I don’t mind the children having small parts of their parents incorporated into them, but Boruto really takes it to new heights. The personalities are more copy paste. Most of them act exactly how their parents do or once did. One of the few characters this probably doesn’t go for is Mitsuki, as he’s rather pleasant compared to his father, orochimaru.

3. The lack of screen time- this is a minor issue to me, but I don’t appreciate how a lot of the interesting characters like Sarada are glazed over. The other teams besides Team Konohamaru are usually not shown progressing as much, and are given the much shorter end of the stick than the main characters, which is rather annoying.

4. The Konoha 11- the Konoha 11 have been greased so badly. Their powers seem heavily downgraded, and their character designs look awful. A lot of them look like pedophiles and Shino looks like a can of bug spray. Their powers seem very light, compared to in the Naruto series. For example, Shino not being able to control his bugs and messing up, is a regular for the shows gag unfortunately. That’s so unnatural because we know Shino is very serious and calculated and careful, so that gag is not funny at all. Even Naruto, who’s a master at shadow clone jutsu, has reverted back to his childhood. His clones are ineffective but they do it as a gag, which is dumb. They have made some of the Konoha 11 a shell of there former selves, which frustrates me. They were so cool in shippuden and such, but now their once cool and mysterious powers are downgraded for laughs, which aren’t funny.

5. Naruto and sasuke- Naruto and Sasuke are horrible fathers. For people who should want to make the most of family because they never had any, they don’t even spend time with their kids, which is so dumb. Naruto does Hokage work, but nothing is stopping him from making shadow clones to do the work for him, so that he could spend time with his family. Sasuke is even worse to the point where seeing Sasuke triggers Saradas sharingan because of the overwhelming emotion she felt from seeing him for the first time in years(I also hate how Sarada just bonds with him after an episode. Their relationship would need mending and building considering how long sasukes been gone. He doesn’t know much about her, so he should learn steady over a period of time like how it is in real life). That’s awful. They could be there for their families but their not, which is so weird for characters of their backgrounds.

6. The plot itself- the plot itself drags on for very long and in my opinion isn’t interesting. The plot is constantly jumping. The Arcs aren’t that intruiging and follow benign story plots that could only possibly serve as filler. It takes so long to get to the main plot of Borutos story. Here’s a list of the 17(Yes,17) arcs that have occurred in Boruto so far;

I can tell you that a lot of these are pretty much anticlimactic and waste time. Some are cool to sit through, like the time travel arc or Kara Actuation, but some are like the War arc of shippuden. If something’s like the war arc of shippuden, I rather smell someone’s booty than watch that again. So please, you can even read the plots yourself, and find that they aren’t that captivating.

7.The Villains- last but not least, we have the very copy paste villains. Just recently we’ve gotten some newer villains with a new agenda but it won’t be a breath of fresh air for long. For example, we know that so many of the villains such as Momoshiki, have been just copy-pastes of Kaguya. Their a Naruto and Sasuke level threat which we know that both Naruto and Sasuke could beat them any time. I’m bored of seeing Naruto and Sasuke fight villains that we know they will beat anytime. And with the villains point- I bring to you why Boruto has potential. You see, the Kawaki arc(Kara arc) showed that Boruto could turn into a show about a rivalry, and we saw the clip of Kawaki and Boruto fighting at the very beginning of the series. This is cool that a character like Kawaki who is shown in the end to have a strong resentment towards the ninja world for making him what he is, eventually will try to go the mile to end the age of shinobi. We will have to wait for this, sadly and I wished they introduced this sooner.

Alt plot: my alt plot goes a bit like this. Let’s say that the peaceful world is not exactly completely peaceful. The 5 nations aren’t at war anymore but the smaller countries within them aren’t exactly that peaceful. There aren’t a lot of casualties at all, but some people are still a tad bit resentful.

Let’s say that some of the great nations have become docile. The New generation of kids no longer learn how to be ninjas. Instead they go to regular school and for those who would like to be ninjas, there is a fake kitty-program for them to take. It’s not serious enough for them, though. Jonin still go on message delivering missions. The Hokage is still there, all of that.

Now let’s say a character like Kawaki and an organization behind them, a small one, has been wronged by the shinobi world. They aren’t exactly like the Akatsuki, open with their deeds. However, they are internal threats like Danzo almost, who live within the village. Nobody suspects them because they pose as regular citizens in the lands that no longer practice the way of shinobi life as they once did.

Now let’s say this organization start taking out unsuspecting Jonin. One by one, 2 by 2, Jonin are turning up dead left and right. Nobody can really explain their deaths yet, but their deaths are really disturbing. Next, Anbus investigate, but some of them are even taken out too.

The Hokage and village are becoming restless once again. Then citizens start going missing and dying. This doesn’t just happen in Konoha though, this also happens in other nations. This can make a rift between the nations who think that the other nation is sabotaging them, which can influence bad blood again. These villains are tearing up the almost perfect world from the inside out. They bring back people like Kakashi, Yamato, Tsunade, Kurenai, Gai, basically everyone from the old days, and the Konoha 11 for their lines of defense.

People propose that the children should learn to be true shinobi. Some argue that they shouldn’t, but it is decided that the children should learn to protect themselves and their lands. So now, medical ninjitsu classes are taught, ninjitsu, chakra types, genjutsu. The ninja school is rehashed.

Sasuke comes back to the village and is asked if he’s seen anyone enter the village but the answer is no, which gives a clue.

Soon, the children graduate and learn important lessons about friendship and teamwork. We watch them work hard to learn and perfect their parents Jutsus. we watch the trial and error, but we watch them turn out great in the end. They can even have Boruto face off against this villain when he gets older.

They learn from the oldest Shinobis and earn their powers, instead of just having them materialize them and genetically master them.

(p.s honestly Temari and Shikamaru should’ve had twins, one boy and one girl, have them both be smart but have one learn shadow possession and one learn wind style. The boy is obvi Shikadai who learns shadow possenion cuz that’s already cannon, and the girl Tomoe, could learn wind style from Temari. She doesn’t have to be a carbon copy, but she could still learn her mother’s craft.)

Thank you for coming to my ted talk my loves, and I’ll see you on the next episode of Character Critisims.

Heyy!!! Yeah so the fic i was talking about. Can you write something like sai has absolutely no inspiration to draw and then he looks at ino and is like right imma draw her!!! I want this fic to take place after they've started dating. Thank you!!

Of course love,whatever you want! I’ll put my heart into it 😚

Naruto scenarios🍥

My muse(Sai x Ino)

Sai loudly yawned over his notebook. He had never been so bored in his life before, especially not over drawing. Art was his passion, and he could never be tired of it. Still, just tracing the bowl of fruit in front of him was child’s play, and it was nothing to be elated about

Sai felt a hand snake up around his collar bone. The resting of a head and finally a long platinum blond ponytail faded into his view.

“What are you up too?” Ino asked, followed by a peck to Sais’ red cheek.

“Oh this? I was just drawing up something in the mean time.” He replied, dropping his pencil onto their wooden dining room table. A loud yawn escaped from his lips as he laid his head onto the table.

“Well, I hope you aren’t too tired. I’ve decided to make us some lunch. Make sure to stay awake”, Ino chuckled. She moved from her place and walked to the fridge. Sai just continued to stare into nothingness while his head was tucked into his arms.

Ino quickly grabbed a few pans from her kitchen cabinet, causing loud ruckus. Sai slowly lifted his head up to gaze at his beautiful girlfriend.

The way her hips swayed from side to side. They were perfectly sculpted. Her platinum locks resembling only the finest silk. How her arms were the perfect length and best of all, her face was just only a resemblance of the goddess of beauty herself.

Sais head carefully ascended from his 2 arms. He snatched his pencil from the table once more, and put it to his paper notebook. The way his pencil swayed back and forth on paper mimicked Inos movements precisely, getting her every detail down to a science. The eyes and lips were captured almost perfectly along with her tresses.

He worked all the way down to her body that only the gods themselves could’ve designed. The pencil glided back and forth on paper, making accurate lines and shapes. One curve, 2 curves.

Sai traced over the drawing once more, and again. He wasn’t satisfied. A mural this breathtaking couldn’t just be left without color.

Sai pulled out only the finest of his paints and paint brushes, one by one lining them over the table. He picked up his paint brush and carefully maneuvered over each line, each curve, each shape. Using the prettiest lavender to match Inos stylish outfit. Only the cutest fuchsia for her lips. The lightest yellow for her lengthy hair. Each color had much thought put into them. All of Sais passion and intellect went into this entire thing.

This was truly a masterpiece of the highest caliber. Anyone with sight could see the love, time, and appreciation poured into the piece. Museums would fight over it if any of them caught a glimpse of it.

“Sai, honey I made your favorite! It’s avocado-

Inos mouth fell agape. She rested the plate onto the table. Her hands fled over her mouth, but no sound came out. Tears filled her eyes at the sight.

“Is that....is that..me?”,She barely managed to articulate.

“Yes actually. You see, I was trying to capture you in a-

Sais rambling was cut off by Ino engulfing him into an almost suffocating hug.

“I love it! I love it Sai! Is this how I really look to you?” She gasped, turning to face her picture once again, with Sais arm tightly fitted around her waist.

“You are my muse after all. A muse is supposed to be captured in all of her leaps and bounds of breath-taking beauty!”

His...muse? Ino mouthed to herself. She just stood there, taking in all the colors and lines that covered the paper. Her eyes couldn’t leave that picture behind.

I wish we had more moments between them like this😪

NarutoXHinata🍥🤍

Hinata comes home drunk and Naruto thinks it’s adorable.

————————-——————————————————

Tenten, Ino, Sakura, and Hinata all sat inside Konohas local bar. The bar was very welcoming and small. Ino suggested that the girls attended this bar because they served the best drinks. Everyone agreed, so they ended up there.

Sakura and Ino were both drinking pina coladas, while Tenten was drinking a Mojito. Tenten was a heavyweight drinker, so she was sure that a drink like a mojito would have no effect on her.

Hinata was drinking a Long Island iced tea. It was her favorite drink ever since Kiba let her taste his when team 8 had a reunion. It was her 2nd one and she was starting to feel a little woozy.

Hyugas had a very low tolerance for alcohol. Just a few sips would threaten tipsy-ness. A common way to tell if a Hyuga was drunk was to look at their cheeks. They often blushed when drunk, their faces turning beet-red almost.

“Guys! I have an Idea. We should do a contest.” Ino suggested.

“Well, spit it out! What is it, Ino-pig?” Sakura badgered Ino, shaking the girls arm even.

“Well, I wanna see, who could drink the most.” Ino sinisterly smirked. She wanted tonight to be a memorable one, why not have a drinking contest?

“Your on Ino-pig!” Sakura yelled.

“You too billard-brow!” Ino screamed back.

Tenten hovered both of them, darkly smiling.

“You both are going down.”

Hinata got nervous. She was already a bit tipsy, and she knew that a few more drinks would make her an incoherent, babbling, stumbling mess. How would she even make it home?

“Um, I don’t know if I should. I’m not that much of a drinker.” Hinata quietly remarked, as she always spoke softly.

“Oh come on, Hinata! Losen up, have some fun! It’s a girls night! Drink till your head falls off!” Ino laughed, slinging her arm around Hinatas shoulder.

Hinata thought about it. She should losen up. She was always at home, or doing boring things like grocery shopping.

“Ok. I’ll do it.”

“Woohoo!” The 3 other girls Hooted. It was often their missions to make Hinata jump out of her comfort zone. This time, the mission was successful.

“I forgot to mention that, my cousin owns this place. Watch this.....Scuse me Bartender!”

“Yes darling.”

“Can I order 12 shots of tequila, please. Put it on Rikus tab. He won’t mind.” Ino confidently ordered. Without any questions, the bartender immediately poured up 12 shots of tequila quickly.

“Wait, how did he know you weren’t lying?” Sakura questioned.

“I’m just the splitting image of my cousin. People even used to think we were twins when we were little. We both have lucious blonde hair, icy blue eyes. You know, the works.” Ino explained, flipping her blonde hair everywhich way.

“Oh shut up Ino-pig, let’s get drinking! Hinata you take the first shot.”

Hinata slowly reached for the tequila shot in front of her. She grabbed it and attempted to just sip from the glass, before Tenten stopped her.

“Oh Hinata, your just like your cousin. You can’t sip tequila you have to gulp it down in one go! Here like this.” Tenten took a shot and forced it down at top speed. She yanked a lime from her plate and sucked the wedge.

“Light work.” She said as she wiped her mouth of any lime pulp. Ino and Sakura both glanced at eachother In confusion and in awe. Didn’t the tequila burn her throat? Didn’t it sting like tequila always does? This girl was a monster.

“Ok Hinata, now you try. But instead, dip your finger in salt first to lessen the burn.” Tenten commanded.

Hinata dipped her finger into the salt and put it onto her tongue. She grabbed the tequila shot and looked at weirdly for a second. Then, she threw it down her throat, almost crying at the burn of the tequila. Hinata grabbed a lime off the plate in front of her and sucked it for dear life.

“Yea! Go Hinata!” Sakura shouted, patting Hinatas back. Hinata coughed and hacked intensely, her throat still burning a bit from the tequila.

“Alright! My turn.” Inos hand glided toward the shot glass full of tequila. She inhaled the tequila down her throat. Her eyes began watering a little, but she was still confident.

“I’ve still got it!” Ino yelled loudly across the bar, voice shaking a bit.

“Chaaaaa! My turn! I’ll beat you Ino pig!” Sakura cheered herself on. She grabbed the glass and slurped it down.

“Chaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! I am superior!” Sakura applauded her self loudly.

Now it was Hinatas turn. It would be her turn for each time Tenten, Ino, and Sakura went. It had been 3 shots later, and Hinata was the drunkest she has probably ever been in her life. Stumbling, babbling. Spewing the worst things from her mouth.

“Hey, Hey, Hey! I’m the Byakugan princess, ya know! Give me another drink, will ya.” Hinata sung while trudging out of the bar, with Tenten carrying her of course. Tenten was used to carrying Hyugas around. She did it to Neji quite a lot. This, frankly, was her job.

“No, Hinata. You can’t have another drink. And why do Hyugas start singing randomly when drunk! This always happens!” Tenten ranted. She remembered when Neji got really, like really, drunk this one time. She could almost remember it like yesterday.

“Tattoo on my head, Hinatas my cousin, I like rum, hey hey! Doesn’t that rhyme Tenten?”

Tenten chuckled lowly under her breath. What was wrong with her boyfriend?

“Why can’t I have some more liquor! Liquor is my superpower!” Hinata slurred while Tenten hurled her into her cars passenger seat.

“This is gonna be a long ride.” Tenten sighed loudly. She started up her car and headed for Naruto and Hinatas house.

After 15 minutes, which actually felt like 30 hours because of Hinatas constant babbling, the 2 girls reached Narutos house. He was home, fortunately. Tenten couldn’t imagine spending more time with Hinata while she was drunk.

Tenten walked over the passenger seat of the car and opened the door. She grabbed Hinata and lifted her out of the seat.

“Come on, girl. Let’s go.” Tenten said, as she carried her friend over her shoulder to the door.

Tenten rung the door bell. Naruto opened the door, surprised to see Hinata slumped over Tentens shoulder, still lightly singing random words that barely made sense. Tenten stared him down.

“Is she....

“Yes, she’s drunk. Like really bad.”

Narutos face began contorting. He was beginning to huff, until he finally busted out laughing.

“SHES DRUNK!! NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS I WOULDVE THOUGHT HAHA!” Naruto loudly laughed in Tentens face.

“Well yea. She is. So here you go. She’s all yours.” Tenten said as she pushed Hinata onto Naruto. He caught her immediately.

“Huh? Tenten, your leaving me alone with this sexy man? Oh, who is he? The Byakugan princess is very pleased!” Hinata babbled once again. Tenten just rolled her eyes and chuckled. Naruto got wide-eyed at Hinatas words.

“Thanks Tenten. Tell Neji I said hi!” Naruto waved goodbye.

“No problem. I will!” Tenten yelled back and got into her car, vrooming away.

Naruto was already inside on his couch, with Hinata laying on him of course.

Hinatas cheeks were the deepest shade of red. Her pupils looked dialated and her eyelids were heavy.

“Say, Sexy man. Your so handsome! I, Hinata, the Byakugan princess, shall claim your hand in marriage!”

Naruto just stroked his girlfriends hair. She was so cute when she was drunk. Calling herself the Byakugan the princess and all. He really never imagined Hinata like this. He decided to play along with her little fantasy.

“Will you, Miss Byakugan princess, was it? Will you, take my hand into Marriage?” He said over-exaggeratedly. Hinata looked up at him, eyes beaming, face lighting up.

“Yes! Yes I-hiccup- Will!” She shouted, smiling. Naruto just kept patting her head.

“Say, sexy man?”

“Yea?”

“Thanks for being my husband. I love you.” And with that, Hinata was passed out on Narutos chest. She was snoring loudly already, probably because she was drunk out of her mind.

“I love you too, Miss Byakugan princess. My princess.” Naruto whispered.

(I hoped you liked it!!!!❤️❤️❤️ love you Gina🤍🤍 omg I love Naruhina lol)

Hi there! I was thinking Naruto fantasy A.U. Like instead of naruto wanting to become Hokage and the strongest ninja- he wants to become the strongest magic user and or leader of his magic village??? He could go one and aventure trying to become stronger with his magic and make friends/meet people along the way! If that makes sense 😅

Omg I would love too!!!!🥺 this will be a little Drabble😙 I hope you like it hun👾

Narutos POV

I don’t remember my parents very well. They both passed when I was just a baby. I’ve heard they were fine people though.

My mother,Kushina, was wonderful, so I’ve heard. She was from the land of Mages. She was said to be a powerful Mage, holding powerful magic within her. This magic was passed down from family member to family member. The land of Mages was destroyed when she was a child, sadly. It was said to have some type of seriously powerful magic, said to even be dangerous.

I heard that my father was one of the fastest spell Casters in all of the land of spells. In fact, my father was so skilled, he was the leader of our village.

I heard they were nice people, I wish could’ve met them. I would’ve grown up with them, if it wasn’t for that night.

When I was a baby, just a newborn to be exact, the powerful generational magic within my mother was targeted when she was most vulnerable. Kushina had just given birth to me. While she was off her guard, someone extracted the generational magic from my mother, using it to attack my village. My father stepped in and used a very potent but Fatal spell, to defeat the manifestation of the magic and put it inside of me. My mother had enough energy to help my father cast their final spells and seal my mothers magic into me. I can’t remember their last words, but I just remember them calling my name.

Naruto, Naruto,

“Naruto!” Mr.Iruka called, pulling me out of my thoughts. I jumped up in my seat, startled from his loud tone of voice.

“Yes, Mr.iruka?” Mr.Iruka was my spells and magic teacher. He knew almost every basic spell there was. So, he taught young spellcasters like me. I’m only 12, so I can’t learn advanced magic yet. I have to start somewhere if I want to be the leader of my village! Anyway, I thought Mr.Iruka was pretty cool, though he liked to yell at me a lot.

“Come here and show me how to perform a basic transformation spell. I want to make sure your paying attention.” Mr.Iruka commanded. I confidently hopped out of my seat and strutted to the front of the class. I was itching to show the class my new transformation I came up with.

“Transeo!”

The entire class stared in awe at my transformation.

“Naruto! Stop playing tricks and transform into something with clothes on!” Mr.Iruka scolded. I had turned into a naked woman with blond hair. I mean, I thought I was pretty sexy.

“Sasuke! Come show me your transformation spell!” Mr.Iruka demanded. He rushed me back to my seat, as he welcome Sasuke to the front of the class.

“Transeo.” Sasuke said. He transformed into Mr.iruka himself. The fan girls in our class hooted and hollered at Sasukes transformation. I scoffed, and rolled my eyes.

What was so good about Sasuke? I was just as good as him!

“Thank you Sasuke. Next is Sakura. Please show me your transformation.”

Sakura gracefully trotted to the front of the class. I watched her every movement. She was absolutely beautiful. From her long pink hair, to her light foam green eyes. I wanted her to be mine.

“Transeo!” Her voice echoed in our classroom.

She transformed into the current leader of the land of spells, Sarutobi. She got every detail right. From his black robe and gold headpiece. She did it perfectly. I wasn’t surprised. After all, she is the smartest girl in our class.

“Great job, Sakura!” Mr.Iruka applauded. Sakura jumped up in joy, her ankle length blue robe flying up a bit in the process. We all had to wear blue robes. It was our academy uniform.

“Did you see me, Sasuke? I did good didn’t I?” Of course she had eyes for that, Sasuke. All the girls did.

I thought Sasuke wasn’t that much of an interesting person. He had a tragic backstory, a trend in the citizens of the land of spells.

Sasukes story was more tragic than most. His magicae familia possesses a generational magic called the oculus exemplum. Only those from his family can cast the spells associated with it. He is the last known Uchiha possessing such magic.

Tragically, his entire family was murdered by a powerful foe. I haven’t heard much details, but I did hear that it was incredibly gruesome.

So, we both grew up without parents. What was so special about him, that wasn’t special about me? I have my own special family magic too!

I snapped out of my day dreaming when I heard the bell ring. It was finally time for us to study with our assigned groups. Usually, the groups we studied in, were the partes or teams, we did quests for. My group was with Sasuke and Sakura.

Sasuke was so good at just about everything. Spell casting, combat. Even Sakura hit the nail on the head with every spell, perfectly. But me, I could never do any spell properly. I mean to be fair, I was usually playing pranks in the village. Transforming into Gouls to scare old people in the village, casting fictus re spells. It was so fun, I skipped school to do all those things. Which is the reason I suck horribly now.

The only spell I’m really good at is the umbra exemplaria spell. It allows me to make dozens of clones for myself to fight for me. I learned it from a forbidden magic scroll that a now exiled spell caster, Mr.Misuki tricked me into stealing. The spell was forbidden because it takes a lot of magic energy from those using it. It never seemed to make me tired though.

Sasukes POV

“So, What magic quest do you guys think we’ll be on next?” Sakura asked.

“I spoke to the oracle today, and he said that we’ll be going with Mr.Kakashi on a quest to the land of wizards.” I answered.

“Awesome! Where’s Mr.Kakashi? When are we going? How will we get there?” Naruto wouldn’t stop asking questions. I rolled my eyes at his annoying enthusiasm.

“Shut up, Naruto. We’ll know when we see him. I’m sure our own magic teacher knows when we’ll go. Relax.” I said. Naruto shot an angry look at me, making me smirk at him. I really want to battle this kid on day, I know he’s got some potential.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been drawn to Naruto. At first, I was thinking that it was a spell my older brother cast his ‘hearts call’ spell onto me. But they wasn’t it.

Naruto is one of the only people who knows how it feels to be completely alone. He is my only hope that whatever depression I’ve fallen into, will soon fade. He is the light to my darkness. I don’t know what our future holds, but I hope we will both become stronger.

_______________________________________________

Narutos POV

I’m going to go the Oracle myself today. Sasuke neither Mr.Kakashi will tell me when our quest is. So, I will find out from the source of this information.

I walked through the buildings and stores occupying the land of spells. Most people avoided me like the Black Plague, but I was used to it. I knew why, so I didn’t blame them. I wish they could just see me for me, and not for my mothers magic.

Soon enough I reached the oracles den. It was in the same quarters as the leader of our village, so I was bound to run into him.

I dashed up the stairs, trying to zoom past the old man. He was going to talk me to death, and the Oracle was more important. I could chat up with the geezer later.

I knocked on the door. The door slowly opened by itself. I saw the Oracle, face fully covered. They leaned forward, speaking ominously to me.

“Come in, Uzumaki. I’ve been waiting for you all day.”

They motioned for me to come towards them. This felt different. This didn’t feel like the Oracle. The Oracles magical presence felt neutral. Neither good or bad magic. Just, magic.

This Magic felt almost evil. Sinister in its way. Who was this new Oracle, and what did they want?

I crept closer to the Oracle, careful of my movements.

I could feel something about to happen.

A long slimy tongue escaped from the shadow of the Oracle, wrapping around my hand, pulling me closer to them.

What was gonna happen to me? I need to think, and fast.
