Second Life Begin Again (A Naruto Reincarnation Quest)

The Party Finale:

You looked up to the rafters and felt the man's presence up there. He was looking down, stressful energy radiating from his body, prepared to jump in at an instance to protect… someone in this room.

It was not the Hokage, nor Kushina, nor any of the other people that you knew were members of the ninja forces. They were skilled enough to protect themselves…

Was he protecting you, Itachi and Hana?

That seemed rather odd. With so many ninjas around in the entire area, it would seem prudent that he wouldn't need to be here.

Or was here without orders, and the Hokage decided that he could stay, and be reprimed later.

But why he was here did not matter to you. You saw how lonely he was, sitting up there alone. That would not do.

You looked up and saw that there was no easy way up to the rafters… at least an easy way without getting caught by your parents.

So, you decided to make a distraction. You took a deep breath and walked into one of the side rooms.

You were about to knock over a few chairs when the Dog appeared out of nowhere, stopping you from doing the act of mischief.

The masked man wore a dog mask, and he glared, crossing his arms. He was tall, but he wasn't as tall as your father. His uniform was filled with holes, and his gloves had a few dark stains on them.

He did not make a sound, as he pointed to the room where the party was being held.

"Hello." You replied, giving him a wave.

Dog leaned forward and pointed to the party room.

"Sorry, but I can't do that." You replied.

Dog than facepalmed, and walked forward, to drag you towards the party.

"You don't want to be here… don't you?" You stated, causing Dog to freeze, and glare at you behind his mask.

You nodded. "You feel as though you don't have anyone left in your life to help you, so you look for something to kill you, because you don't want to be alone anymore."

Dog was silent. You could see his hands tremble as he took a deep breath. "You aren't alone." You stated.

"Stop." He whispered, and you heard how young that voice was. "Please stop talking… and go back to your parents."

You stood there, offering your hand. "My name is Shiro."

The man did not take it. "Dog." He replied.

"I hope we meet again Dog." You stated.

You turned around and saw Lord Hokage standing at the doorway, looking at you and Dog. "Come on Shiro, it's time for cake." He paused, looking at the man in the room with you. "Dog."

Dog gave a quick bow, before disappearing into the shadows as if his very presence was a danger.

You looked towards Lord Hokage. "Did you know he was here?" You asked.

"Yes." He replied calmly, as he escorted you towards the cake about to be served.

"Do you know why he is sad?" You asked.

"Unfortunately." Lord Hokage replied. "But I know he will be okay."

You wanted to protest, to tell him that Dog was not going to be okay. But it was the Hokage you were talking to. He must have had a plan.


The rest of the party went very well after that interaction with Dog. The cake was delicious, and Itachi celebrated another year alive.

Reward: Itachi considers you a curiosity, and wishes to spend time with you, given the chance, before the academy.

Dog ponders your words and wishes to speak with you again… in the future.

Your father gave a small smile as he spoke to you. "Alright Shiro, I want you to bring your chakra together now. When that happens, I want you to activate the Byakugan, okay? We are going to find out what your starting range is so we can train from there."

You nodded. "Okay."

He took a deep breath as you felt the energy within your body, swirling in both your stomach and in your eyes.

Your eyes activated, the veins in your eyes bulging out of your head.

Byakugan: 1D100 => 100

And you saw everything. So many moving bodies, birds, trees, humans… all of their chakras could be seen by you, in real-time.

The farthest you saw, was a treehouse, a very very long distance away, where you saw five people preparing, standing over something…

And tunnel, a tunnel beneath Konoha going to a large cave underneath… someplace.

"How much do you see?" Your father asked.

"I don't know… I don't know!?" You replied... frightened, not being able to answer.

You turned them off, and sat down, covering your eyes.

"It's alright. It's alright!" Your father held you in his arms. "It's alright."

You calmed down, taking several deep breaths. "There was a treehouse, with people inside, looking over something." You replied. "That was the farthest thing."

Your father nodded. "I'll find out where that is. You must have seen something pretty far."

"Maybe." You replied.

Reward: Your Byakugan has a range of over 20 miles. +10 to dodge rolls currently.
