Yo. I made this war story about a normal shinobi who is going to war. This is just part 1. If people like it, I will make a part 2 tomorrow. Please be honest, thank you!
The Fourth Shinobi War. The news is spreading in Konoha. Everywhere, people are talking about it. Rumors are saying Madara Uchiha declared war on all the nations. Uchiha... Madara. However I am still young, I've heard a lot about him. How he fought a brutal fight with the first Hokage of this village, Hashirama. Everyone thought he was dead, but it seems he is still alive. And now he is looking for revenche, I think. Anyway, our shinobi will go to war soon, and I am one of them. I am from the 'Hide and Seek-company', specialised in guerilla-warfare. We will fight side by side with the other nations. Nations we never trusted, but because our enemy is that powerfull, everything is cool again. Ha, at least I hope it is. It is not that long ago, 3 years, since the Sand Shinobi attacked this village. Many good soldiers died. Also my older brother. He died in an ambush. His death was very honorable, the people say. He killed at least 4 enemy shinobi before they took him down. I never saw my father crying, but that day, he kept crying. However afterwards there was a peace between our 2 villages again, father never forgives the Sand Nation to kill his oldest son. And to be honest, I am still mad myself. My brother was not only family, he was also my best friend. He was my hero and he was the one who teached me to be a good shinobi, at least he tried. And then, one day to the other, he was killed.
*One week later*
Tomorrow is the big day. Then we will leave Konoha and are we heading to headquarters. Ready for battle. Ready to kill. Or to be killed. Naaah, don't think like that. It is not good. I will survive this war. I have to! I am too young to die. A whole life is still waiting for me. Plus I met a cute girl yesterday. Oh, is she beautiful! I think I am in love. She asked me if I would go to war too, and I answered yes. I lied by saying I'm a captain and I have much battle-experience. It's a fact that our girls love ranks. Anyway, I promised her to write her each day. She was happy to hear that.
Suddenly, my best friend interrupts my thoughts. His name is Ranzyo. He wants to get drunk the last night before we go to the battlefield. But I tell him I can't. My mother asked, no, she begged me to eat together this evening. I could not refuse that. It would break her heart. Ranzyo understands it.
I return to home and I can smell all the food already. Delicious! I enter the living room. My father, my 2 little brothers and 1 little sister are already at the table. I take place too. It is quiet. Then, after 2-3 minutes of silence, one of my little brothers asks me a question. His name is Arito, he is only 10 years old but he understands what is going on. "Will you be okay", he asks me. I answer him that I will return safely. But of course I don't know that. But what else can I say. That there is a chance that I am going to die? No. That would be too hard for them. I look at my other little brother, Yamugo, age 8, and I see he is smiling. He is believing me everything will be okay. Then mother comes with all the food. It is so good. We talk about normal things, not about war and stuff. It feels good. Thank you, mom!
The next morning... I am ready to go to my company. My little brothers and little sister are still sleeping and that is good, saying goodbye to them would be harsh. I have my 2 kunai's with me and also some bread for on the road. It is time. I give my mother a big hug. I see she wants to cry, but she is strong. She knows I can't handle it to see her crying. She gives me a big kiss on the cheek and tells me to be carefull. Then my father comes and he salutes me. He says he is proud of me. I can see a small tear in his eyes. I take his hand and tell him I will come home. We will win this war! He salutes me again. This time even 2 times after each other. I turn around and I walk away. When suddenly someone is pulling my pants. I look down and I see it is my little sister, who's only 4 years old. Oh, Namy, why couldn't you stay sleeping in your bed. I look at here, she looks at me. She doesn't say anything, but her eyes are saying enough. She doesn't want me to go. I take her into my arms and tell her everything will be okay. The 'bad people' will not hurt me. But she doesn't let me go. She doesn't want me to leave. Mother comes, she takes her away, Namy starts crying. I turn around, again, I don't look back... It would only hurts more.
