Noroi's Origins (Private)

Noroi returned to his home after being on several missions , which tired
him very much. He was too lazy to jump over his bed , so he threw
himself to the ground. He realised there was a letter with "To Noroi"
written on it , under his bed. He remembered the letter. He received
this long time ago , when he first became a Genin , during his first
days of training. A boy gave this letter to Noroi and went away. When
Noroi opened it , he found out the paper was blank and after 1 day more
of training when he arrived at his home , he couldn't find the letter.
"So that's where you have been...". Now that he thought about it , he
checked the letter when it was dark and may not have been able to see
what was written in it. He never realised the "To Noroi" written on it
either. ON the back of the letter , it was written "from Ichigo" He
opened the letter once again , hoping he would see the things in it now.
The letter was from his long-dead friend , Ichigo , who take care of
him until he became a Genin. The letter could now easily be read.



The letter started like this : "Noroi... You know that I have never lied
you. But I didn't tell you all I knew about you too. Let's start with
this : You are a member of the Yamaki clan. I had to take you from there
because your parents have died (who were both powerful and respected
Yamaki clan members and ninjas) and noone in the clan would take care of
you , so I did , as your father's best friend. I'm writing this now
because I never had the courage to tell you. You're thinking about
joining the academy now , so I think you deserve the truth. I'll let you
find this letter when you become a ninja...". Noroi stopped for a
moment to breathe , his eyes were filled with tears , but he didn't let
them drop. He started thinking about the letter as much as he read it so
far , "By the time you become a ninja. He especially planned it to be
delivered to me when I became a ninja. It's a shame I couldn't have
found it until now... Yamaki clan he thought... Isn't that Raito's clan ?
Oh , god... I remember some things about it."
















It was the times before Noroi had became a Genin. Noroi was just an Academy student when he heard about the Yamaki clan massacre. He was eating dinner in Ichiraku Noodle Bar with his only friend , who took care of him for the time being , and there was a man who was talking to the owner of the Ichiraku , who was already the cook. The man said " Did you ever hear about the Yamaki clan ?". The cook looked at him as he was cooking the noodles of Noroi and Ichigo , "No. But it sounds like I'm going to know some thing about it just minutes later.". The man smiled. Noroi was watching them as he had nothing to do and the noodle bar was the only place he could freely act , since nobody there gave a damn about the color of Noroi' eyes. The man continued talking "There has been a massacre at their territorry , Hyuuga killing Yamaki... It was unexpected for some , and expected for others... Yesterday , my friend will not be easily forgotten , it will be remembered as the Yamaki Clan Massacre ... You know , it showed me I was wrong. My father told me that I shouldn't have trusted in anyone. I thought I could trust at least a few people. But what happened yesterday showed us that you shouldn't trust even the most silent ones , even the ones who seem to be the friendliest."












"I remember that day like it was just yesterday. Hearing about a massacre at that age isn't easy to forget. Expected for other ? He told that , right ? So that means there are more survivors. Raito must now about these. I'll go talk to him about this as soon as possible.". Noroi finished reading the letter and now everything made sense. The letter ended with these words : "Forgive me Noroi , for not having the courage to tell you these earlier. And also forgive me for I have never learned your true name to save you from being called a curse. If I have deserved it in your eyes , I want the honor to name you. So , if you accept it , I name you Nero Yamaki of the Hidden Leaf. Your friend , Ichigo Yamaki.".

"Yamaki ?" thought Noroi as he realised he has been taken care of not
just a friend , but also a member of his clan. "I guess I was lucky that
he took me away from there , otherwise I'd be history with the most of
the clan... He was one of the people who expected the massacre..." Noroi
put the letter in a drawer of his desk. He also checked his notebook
(filled with his mission & training logs) and figured out he had
nothing to do for the rest of the day and now he was so excited , he
wasn't feeling how tired he was like he did just minutes ago. Still , he
threw himself to his bed , lied there looking at the sky from the
window just next to his head and thought about everything that he had
went through. He remembered the Noroi he was back then before becoming
the Noroi he is right now. He has gone through a lot of things... Being
hated by the villagers , joining the academy , Ichigo's death , becoming
a ninja of the hidden leaf... He was proud of himself and he
remembering his past and learning about his origins gave him a comfort
he never felt before. He promised himself , he was going to learn more
about his clan and make his ancestors proud , since it seemed like it
was a huge burden that was left to few people's shoulders...
