Chapter 5: Paths Intertwine

Nia entered the border of a small village. She took off her mask to get more air. She then couldn't tell which village it was that she was in nor did she really care. All she wanted to know was if she could get a place to rest in as it was already nighttime and was exhausted from her almost non-stop journey.

"Excuse me." Nia tapped a brown-haired man's shoulder.

"Yes?" He responded.

"Do you know if there is a place that I can stay in for the night?"

"Tch, yeah right." The man scoffed as he gave the girl an offending look.

Nia got confused.

Why is he looking at me like that?

"A hideous looking girl like you shouldn't even be in this village. There's no way anyone will let you stay the night here. Only beautiful women are allowed. Not E.T's or animals."

This comment shattered the kunoichi's heart. It was unexpected and rude.

"Huh? What are you-"

"Hey guys!" The male ninja gestures for the other villagers to come over, "Come look at this chick, she looks like a monster!"

Other members of the village gathered around in a circle. Snickers were heard and fingers were being pointed at the teen.

"Ew! Do you even care about what you look like to others? You're killing our eyes with your grotesque features!" A woman with red hair hissed.

"Children and the elderly shouldn't be around you. You're too ugly to be in a place like this! You should be ashamed of yourself, young lady." An older woman with specks of grey in her hair insulted the teen.

Nia felt the pain of being called ugly. She was used to being called that in her village but she never thought of hearing others say that to her outside of it.

"And just look at her body!" This time, a teenaged boy laughed, "She's fatter than most kunoichi!"

At this remark, everyone laughed along with the young man.

Nia lowered her head. Her bangs made a dark shade over her eyes. She bit her lip and felt her fist tense up.

"Yeah! You're right, Kid!" The villagers continue with their laughter.

"Even all the summoning animals look better than her!"

"Go get toned, fatty!" A teen girl yelled, "It's hard to look at you. Don't you need to be in shape to protect your own village?!"

"SHUT UP ALREADY!" Nia loses her temper while her eyes made contact with everyone else's, "I hate my village! I couldn't care less what happens to it and you know what? I HATE YOU SHALLOW, GOOD-FOR-NOTHING DOUCHEBAGS TOO! I HOPE ONE OF THE FIVE GREAT NATIONS EXTERMINATE YOU PEOPLE!"

Everyone stayed quiet for a short moment. After about five seconds, they began throwing numerous, more insensitive comments and remarks.

No one seemed to notice the long-haired man approaching the crowd. He had just got done spending time in a hot spring doing "research" and was now in the mood for dinner.
