Being born is a very unpleasant process for everyone involved obviously but few can explain exactly how unpleasant it is to be born. For the mother and depending on the father the father as well it is an agonizing process filled with blood, sweat, tears and unfortunately involuntary excretory responses. It was quite common for the mothers giving birth to piss and shit themselves in the process. For me though I had the distinctly unpleasant experience of the one being born after I entered this body. It would have been stillborn had I not chosen to inhabit it according to whatever being it was that gave me the opportunity.-
Regardless here I was feeling pain and pressure from all sides as I got rejected from my mothers body.
“WAAAAAHHH!” I screamed at the pain and sudden chill of the hospital room which seemed to satisfy the doctors.
One of them held me in a single palm and a green energy radiated from their palm and sank into my body from my back soothing my pain away and in turn sending me to sleep. A few days past after that and I eventually managed to put together that my new name was Kenzo since that was what everyone said to me when they came to disturb my sleep or clean up after my body made a mess of itself.-
Being an infant, a newborn no less, was an exhausting matter let me tell you. Even with the constant flow of natural energy into my body slowly improving and perfecting it as I was in a constant state of sage mode I was still tired. Oh yes I nearly forgot about that little detail didn’t I? See in exchange for being a natural born sage I traded my memories of this world with the being who sent me here.-
That meant I knew literally nothing about this world I was in but had an ability that I was certain was highly valuable. Without the memories of this world however I wasn’t entirely sure exactly what being a sage meant. Anyways as I stated previously I gained a permanent and unending version of sage mode as the energy I could sense around me flowed into my small body and mixed with the energy in my body. It was all very fascinating for someone from earth like me to feel and witness but I couldn’t use the stuff without drawing attention which was the last thing I wanted and so I simply didn’t.-
There were signs however that I found out about and had to actively monitor. Case in point was how dreadfully little control over their bodies an infant has and with me in sage mode constantly my physical strength was far more than a normal baby would have. This resulted in a few incidents were I broke something. Thankfully nobody seemed to notice the strangeness of it and just tended to me as per normal infant care. I never really got to get to know my parents after I was born however as eight days after I was born there was a great disturbance.-
For the normal infants of which there was four others it merely disturbed them and caused them to cry but for me it was far different. Apparently as a sage I had extremely sharp senses and as a result could FEEL the wrathful and seemingly all powerful presence that had appeared all of a sudden. It felt like all the hatred in the world concentrated in one place given murderous form. Even worse I am willing to swear on my life that whatever the thing was sensed me as well as for the briefest moment I felt like I was being stared at.-
Oddly however the gaze didn’t seem harmful at all despite all the rage I felt the creature had. In fact the gaze almost seemed perplexed like it couldn’t comprehend me of all things. The creature didn’t stopped rampaging outside for a while but the sounds it made did get further away by a lot until it eventually just vanished somehow. That part in particular confused the hell out of me because I couldn’t even begin to imagine something capable of defeating the creature I felt.-
As I quickly realized however that creature had in fact killed my parents since they never came to visit me after that day. I was a little sad about it since they seemed like nice people but I hadn’t had enough time with them to really get attached and thus quickly got over it. I know that I should be more upset about it but as I said I simply hadn’t known them very well when they died. It was a bit like going to a party and hitting it off with someone only for you to never see them again, sad yes but hardly something that will occupy much of your thoughts.-
I wasn’t the only one orphaned that day though as nearly seven other infants were added to the care center much to my annoyance. In case it wasn’t obvious babies cry, a lot, as a result the eleven wails I was regularly subjected to left me more than a little grated. Sadly I was an infant and thus unable to simply extricate myself from the situation. I only needed to deal with it for a couple more weeks after that thankfully before I got taken home by an older woman obviously still in grief, my grandmother on my fathers side.-
The woman was a strong lady and tried her best to let me grow up normally to the point she didn’t even seem to care that I learned much faster than any normal child and could speak coherently at the age of two. I was regularly taken for checkups due to a rather unfortunate attraction I had for the local wildlife. By that I don’t mean that I sought them out but rather the other way around as my house became a spot all sorts of animals congregated and not just the good sort either. Spiders, snakes, poisonous moths, cats, dogs, rabbits you name it and my home saw a visit at least once from them.-
The funny part was that nobody could ever seem to figure out why they kept coming to us as I made sure to stop any inflow of natural energy whenever someone came looking. Thanks to this I was able to figure out that nobody else seemed to be able to sense the stuff for some reason. There was one animal that came to visit that I refused to part with however much to my grandmothers absolute horror, Ren the scorpion.-
I knew the moment Ren showed up that it was special as in my senses I felt the same chakra I myself had within it. It was weak, nearly nonexistent even but I felt it all the same and thus refused to allowed the ninjas who came from taking it. From an outside perspective it was probably quite comical to see a toddler protecting a highly dangerous scorpion from a group of ninjas who came to get rid of it.-
The concerning part however was that the bright green scorpion was a docile as a a lap dog around me. That seemed to get the villages attention as shortly after that I was visited by a ninja crawling with insects as well as by a woman with red fang like facial tattoos with a large white dog. Members of the Aburame and Inuzuka clans they introduced themselves as to my grandmother. By that time however Ren had nearly tripled in size as I let my curiosity get the best of me and sent a tiny amount of sage chakra into it.
