Arashi kemono

Arashi kemono a genin from konoha, named as such for the way he was found as a child, being carried by an animal through a storm, is a fairly unremarkable boy, his skills in genjutsu, ninjutsu, taijutsu, and kenjutsu are all average, his personality is dull and listless.

Arashi spends most of his free time in the forest around konoha, or with his friend Orochi-kun who though sadistic and generally different from the other children, was only 12 when he became a jonin, showing his genius whereas Arashi became a chunin at the age of 10 the average age, around the same time Orochimaru became a jonin.

(The rest of the novel will be in Arashi's pov or Orochimaru'a pov. Yay)

It's been 11 years since I arrived in the world of Naruto, and the closest thing I have to a golden finger is the strangely cute, yet also sort of endearingly creepy mini Orochimaru, and I don't even know how I became friends with him!

But I know one thing, and that's that I don't want to lose to Orochimaru and I don't want Orochimaru to be forced to leave the village, or be sealed, so either I'll become strong enough to hide everything he does in the future or I'll just find a way to make him not do the human experimentation in the future…and maybe prevent what happens to the uchihas so that itachi has less reason to seal Orochimaru, or just can't in general, after all can't have my only friend getting taken, lost, killed or hurt, speaking of Orochi-kun…3….2…..1.

"Arashi! I knew I'd find you here! I was looking for you for ages!!" Calls the always surprisingly cheerful and completely different from how he is around other people Orochimaru! No seriously it's creepy he's supposed to constantly plot how to use people, which he does he's told me about it, but instead he comes and chats like a normal person!

"Arashi!….Arashi…..ARASHI!!!!" Orochimaru shouts

"Huh what is it?"

"Why are you ignoring me, I thought we agreed to practice shadow clone jutsu today!!?!"

"We did agree, but we both know that you won't practice cause you've already mastered it!"

"But I can still make improvements, plus I can help guide your chakra."

I'm honestly not to sure if that's even a thing because it's been 13 years since I died and came here so I've forgotten a lot of things about my old life, so I can't quite tell if he can really help guide my chakra or if he's just trying to see if I'd make a good replacement body….wait that's in the future so it probably is a thing.

"Your not gonna give up are you Orochi-kun?"

"People tend to say that a lot"

Tch damned cockroach snake!*

(Orochimaru pov)

Hmmm Arashi seems more distracted than usual, perhaps I can use this to my advantage….ah that's right introductions are in order, I am Orochimaru, previously known as the snake sannin, i defected from konoha when I was caught performing human experimentations, later I joined the akatsuki, I also did many more interesting things, but was eventually sealed by Itachi with the sword of totsuka, that's the last memory I have before I woke up in the chunin exam, it was after the exam I met Arashi, someone who didn't exist before, how to describe Arashi, hmmmm…..ah that's it…. Arashi is like a fire in the middle of winter, just what I needed an endless source of interesting things and comfort, strange as it is to say but Arashi's existence seems to create a warmth that wasn't present in my last life, something I now find myself seeking from him more and more often, so I've decided to do what others do when they want to be around someone, I'll gradually get Arashi used to me being with him most of the time and make him depend on me, that way he won't want to leave…..wait that sounds like how people try to manipulate their lovers into staying with them….hmmm Arashi…..lovers...Arashi, lover, Arashi can not be allowed a lover!!

Wait this isn't like me, I know this isn't like me, so why am I acting like this?

Aha it's because Arashi is simply too….too comfortable to be around, much like me he's different from the others, his mind works differently and he acts differently, when he looks around there's a constant sense of wonder in his eyes, and an even bigger sense of amazement when he looks at people he recognises….. it's truly too interesting….although I still intend to find the true path to immortality, I have all the time in many peoples lifetimes to figure it out, but for Arashi I only have this lifetime…sure I could use the edo tensei but then Arashi would lack what makes him unique…his freedom, his freedom of thought which is so much different from others!

(Orochimaru is sometimes called a cockroach or the cockroach Sannin due to how he is practically unkillable, this is almost irrefutably proved when the only way to stop him other than killing the body he currently inhabits is to seal him, anyway this is a fanfic so I can make Orochimaru as different as I like and yes he is going to be an obsessive male lead)
