【Ming Ya】

I was born on a beautiful island, where there are red maple trees stretching to the horizon, and there is a one-of-a-kind blue cherry tree at the doorstep of my house.

I am not an only child. I have always known that I have an older sister named Mingya, but I have never met her.

Ming, an ancient surname, is said to be traceable back to the period of the Six Paths Sage. The so-called bloodline limit was only called talent a long time ago, and it would take dozens or even hundreds of years for one person to awaken, and the awakening often occurred to twins.

This is the case with Mingya and I.

The first time I saw Mingya was when I was four years old. I was playing hide-and-seek with the other kids at home, and in a bottomless underground palace I saw Mingya, who looked exactly like me.

They said that the twins, one alive and one dead, trapped Mingya in this barrier in order to escape punishment. But I always feel that those are the adults talking nonsense. Where did this speculation come from?

"Mother, why can't my sister be with me?"

"Because this is to protect you, and also to protect her and the entire family." Mother squatted down to be at eye level with me, and she touched my cheek, "Xiaomei, the so-called heir is to inherit the family's beliefs and protect the family. If you can't do that..."

I didn’t understand why my mother said that at the time, but later I realized that perhaps the second half of the sentence meant that Mingya would replace me.

One night, my mother took me to a pond on the island. When the moon was full, I saw for the first time the place she had mentioned. But I also heard my mother say, "No one can go there unless they are chosen by God. Since thousands of years ago, only one person has successfully entered. But no one knows her name. They only say that she has long white hair."

White hair? Thousands of years ago? I thought my mother was just talking about a legend and didn’t pay much attention to it. But my mother took my hand and said, “One day, maybe you will have to open this place of nowhere, Xiaomei, you have to make the right choice.”

Choice? But I don’t know what is right.

Soon, my mother sent me off the island and brought me to Kirigakure to become a ninja student. Perhaps because of my talent, it only took me two years to meet the graduation requirements. However, my mother insisted on not letting me graduate, and I didn’t know the reason.

It wasn't until I took the exam at the age of eight that I understood what my mother was worried about.

They were all fighting.

Everywhere I looked, there was blood. They were coming towards me. We were all classmates, why were we killing each other? What was the meaning of such a selection?

I tried to dissuade them, but no one was willing to listen to me. At that moment, I realized that this world might not be so beautiful. The bloodline limit called "Commandments" was truly powerful at this moment.

Under the moonlight, as I pushed through the fog and reached the exit, I could no longer see the road ahead. What was the point of all this? I didn't understand.

"What a beautiful sister, father, what is her name?"

"Ming Mei, your name is very similar to Ming."

"Ming Mei? I'm Mei Mei!"

I didn't hear what the ninja who came forward to talk said until the Fourth Mizukage showed up, which made me set my eyes on him. He looked no more than twelve years old, but there was a very strange aura about him that I couldn't describe.

He was a little cold, and it seemed that I couldn't sense his thoughts when he put the forehead guard on my head. I wanted to use the "commandment", but I held back. After thinking about it, if I had used the "commandment" at this time, there would not have been the tragedy that followed.

That girl named Mei Terumi always came to see me. I didn’t really understand why she came to see me. She just said that I was very beautiful. It was not the first time I heard such a comment, so I didn’t take it seriously.

But she seemed not to care about being rejected by me and insisted on coming to me. Gradually, I seemed to get out of the pain of being killed by my companions and became friends with her, even though she was still a child.

"This is a knot I created. Tying it like this represents blessing. Xiaomei, please stay with me forever in the future."

Faced with Ah Ming’s words, I didn’t know how to respond, so I could only nod.

My sister has always longed for freedom. I have tried to open the barrier many times, but I couldn't do it. The only thing I could do was to avoid their inspections, go to the underground palace, and talk to my sister about the outside world.

"One day, I will take you outside, where the sky is blue, the sea breeze is gentle, and there are gorgeous red maple trees on the island and blue cherry blossoms in winter."

It seems that Mingya has become more and more eager for the outside world since I appeared. I don’t even know whether it is right or wrong for me to give her hope.

It's another year of graduation exams. A junior whom I had met several times died in the exam. I felt sad looking at his body, and tears fell before I could react.

Ah Ming still didn't quite understand, but he held my hand with some fear, "Xiao Mei, why would they do this? It's so scary, I don't want to be a ninja, I'm so afraid that I will die too."

"No, you won't." I comforted her, "You are a very special child." Even though I didn't specifically find out, I had heard that her father had two special bloodline limits, and as his daughter, it should be the same.

This seems even more dangerous.

"A Ming, one day, Kirigakure will no longer be like this, and the children will not have to kill each other for graduation exams. Such a future is not far away, and I will definitely achieve it." I said this to her, and I also hope that one day I can bring Ming Ya to see the brand new Kirigakure.

I heard from the older generation that the former Fourth Mizukage did not seem to be the same as he is today. During a mission, I heard that there is a secret technique that can influence people's psychology by implanting illusions.

Therefore, such thoughts lingered in my mind, and I regretted more and more that I did not find out the true identity of the Mizukage during the graduation exam.

Fortunately, I found an opportunity.

But it was also the beginning of tragedy.

"Ah!" The knives fell on my family members, my uncle, my mother, my father, and my serious uncle. I screamed and wanted to escape, but I knew I had nowhere to go.

My home is now cold and scarlet.

"Xiao Mei!"

It was Mingya calling me, "Sister..."

"careful!"

She pushed me away with force, and then I saw a hand falling in front of me. It was so slender, it was Mingya's hand.

"Ah!" I could no longer bear the horrific scene. All that was left in front of my eyes was a bloody scene. It was all my fault, all my fault. If I hadn't insisted on going there, how could things be like this now?

Mother, did I make the wrong choice? Will I have to spend the rest of my life in regret? No, I still have my sister, I still have my sister!

"Sister..." But the next moment, I found that I couldn't move anymore.

The last memory I have is Mingya smiling. She said, "Xiaomei, I saw the blue cherry blossoms in winter that you mentioned, but I can't walk with you anymore. As your sister and the replacement of the twins, I will complete my mission and you must complete yours."

"No matter what, just keep going this way. Your choice is your will, and my choice is my feeling. From now on, don't come back, don't remember me, and don't have bloodline limits. Just live as you are, Xiaomei."

"From this moment on, I no longer have a sister. I thought my life would only be that dark basement, but you let me know that I still have a sister like you. The place I couldn't go is your dream and my dream. Take my hope with you, and be my eyes. Go and see for me."

"Don't come back again."

No, I want to be with you and my family, even if I die here.

But in the end, I could only watch her face become more and more blurred, and my memory became more and more blurred, as if everything that should not be forgotten was forgotten and disappeared.

When I woke up again, there was a long-haired man in front of me. "You seem injured. Was it a shipwreck?"

Shipwreck? I don't know.

Seeing that I didn't say anything, the man continued: "My name is Orochimaru, I found you on the beach."

The beach? Orochimaru? I tried to recall the past, but I only felt endless pain. What was my name? I think... my name was Miyabi.

"Ya... I am Ya." It should be Ya, go and see what the world is like, it seems someone said so.

"What about a good name, Masamoto? You seem to want to forget the past, so call yourself Miyano Masamoto. The little girl named Miyano under my command died in an accident."

"it is good."

At this moment, my name is Miyano Masamoto. As for the past, it seems to have become very vague. I only remember that it was probably a place called Blood Mist Village. I seem to have lost very important memories and can't remember it at all.

【Mingmei】

This is a place called Konoha, Orochimaru's hometown. I work in his laboratory. Actually, I don't understand the meaning of these things. I just follow orders and do things.

Until I saw him conducting experiments on human bodies, with countless test subjects sleeping in culture bottles.

"It doesn't matter if the imperfect experimental subject is lost, but this most perfect experimental subject still needs to be preserved well." Orochimaru said this to the boy in front of him.

I don't have a clear sense of right and wrong, and I don't know what the meaning of all this is, but when that couple appeared, I seemed to feel something different.

Unlike me, they stood in the sun, talking and laughing. This seemed to be the scene outside that we should see.

They didn't know me, but they treated me as a companion after just meeting me once. What strange people they were, especially the woman. She insisted on taking me to eat ramen and even took the initiative to add a portion of barbecued pork for me.

Although I wanted to distance myself from the matter, I also knew that I shouldn't be with Orochimaru anymore. He went against Miyabi's ideas, and this shouldn't be the case. I just had this vague feeling.

I broke up with Orochimaru. I was grateful that he saved me, but I could feel that this might also be a way for him to win people's hearts. He seemed to be one of the three ninjas called Konoha. Compared with the other two, he was colder and more ruthless.

Soon I had a new team. The girl was called Nana and the boy was called Gu Cheng. They were both Genin with two or three years of experience. I had already become a Chunin with the recommendation of Orochimaru, so it seemed that I was suitable.

Sometimes I wonder what I have lost, but my memory tells me that it was not a very good memory. It might be better if I forget it and live under the name "Miyano Masamoto", but I can't let go.

The blond man was very strange and told me that if I couldn't let go, I should just go. Even the red-haired woman said so. They all seemed to be orphans, so they hoped that I could at least find my memory, at least remember who I was.

I listened to their advice.

I returned to the place called the Blood Mist Village again, but when I saw the wishing tree with a red ribbon tied around it, all I saw was a weird and terrifying scene. When I looked up, I saw a group of people covered in blood, and the bright red liquid fell on me, making a dripping sound.

I ran away, and I don’t know how long I ran away.

Fortunately, I still have Nana and Gu Cheng, so I still have something. However, war is so cruel, and they died right in front of me.

Nana said: "Since it has come to this, I can't hold you back, Yaben, you have to live well!"

They could have survived, probably. Nana brought those Kumogakure ninjas down the cliff without any hesitation.

If you give your heart to someone, if you make friends with them, it will end up like this: your friends die for you, and you can do nothing about it.
