.. AFter many hours the gaurds worm poked his head through the sand. It carried a note, all water and dried rashions shall be purcased for market price. The merchent will be granted a five day pass to the village.

.. well there you have it said the gaurd im to take the water and sried goods , you will be paid upon departure, if your late they will likely deduct from the sale, or even pit you in jail. Best of luck to you kid said the gaurd.

.. well thanks said edward still trying to be polite. Good thing i didnt bring rinea though. And into the village he went

.... first thing he noticed immediately was the sand ninja tailing him. .. . Probably keeping tabs on me see if i cause trouble, lets see where to set up shop. Truth be told it all looked a little bleak here.

... the sand village left much to be desired. Edward wasnt sure if it was because of the last war or just the normalishness of living in a desert.

.. he didnt see many people walking around the streets either. This place is truly deppressing mumbled edward.

.... 2 days in all edward could do was train physically and wait for customers. It was at this time he noticed a small child comre near him. His eyes were dark and baggy and honestly it did creep him out a little.

... good day to you said edward to the kid. The kid was startled, most people either tried to kill him or just ignored him.

... are you talking to me asked the kid. Is there anyone else here edward asked sarcastically, the kid looked around. Nope said the kid.

A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.

... this is sad said edward, here take a seat edward pointed to the chair next to him. Whats up kid you look a little tired and sad.

... i dont have parents, well i do have a father but hes an ass, he keeps trying yo kill me. Umm should you tell someone you just met this kid. No worries he responded everyone already knows.

.... But because my dads influential no one interferes. Ahh sorry to here that kid, parents are supposed to be supportivd of there kids, not ... .

... this suprised the kid, i dont recognize you said the kid do you live here in the sand village. Edward responded, no im s traveling merchant I sell games toys and a variety of other things.

.... well my name said the kid is garra and im the local village monster he smiled. You dont seem like a monster to me replied ed. ..... ha dont let the other villagers hear you say that. My father turned me into one even killing my mother off in the proccess.

.... ?? Um again i doubt your a monster just maybe misunderstood. Well you see they sealed a powerfull monster in me after my birth and due to other complications my mother died shortly after. Since i havent lived up to there expectations father has tried to have me killed many times.

... umm sorry to here thst kid, sounds like they sealed a chackra monster in you making you a Jinchūriki

... DId they tell you which one it was ed asked garra . Garra was supprised at this question. Does it matter asked garra, its a monster. Just like me.

... well actually garra there are 8 others just like you, ive met one of them. Each has there own names and circumstances just like you.

.... really, are they all despised just like me. Sadly replied ed most are, however 2 of them have reached an understanding and cooperate with each other.

.. garra looked interested how did they do this asked garra well you see they started by communicating with the sealed beast, they each have names.

... my beast has 1 tail do you know its name asked garra. I do so he whispered it to garra shukaku, remember though they have been imprisoned for a long time they may be grumpy...
