Shinobies of Equestria

Long ago in the town of Ponyville, or the village hidden in the sun, peace was at an all time high. It was a time where children would play everyday and the ninja of the village could relax and enjoy their training and quality time. It was a fortunes time indeed. However, like all good things, it ended when Manehatten, the village hidden in the bay, staged a war on Baltimare, the village hidden in the green.

This escalated further and further. And before we knew it, Ponyville had been targeted by the Bay ninja of Manehatten. Manehatten had accused Ponyville of helping Baltimare by lending them supplies and weapons. The sun ninja worked hard to drive them out, and by the end of the attack, 8 of Ponyville's ninja had died. They had died protecting their village. And by 3 years pass, after a bloody war that never seemed to end, the war came to a close with Baltimare emerging the victor of the fight. A treaty was then agreed to that day and all was right, for the moment anyway. And one month passed by until the next tragic occurrence came to be, one that would shape the future of a little boy by the name of Jetetsu Takahashi.

His parents were always so kind and loving toward him. They always wanted him to be the very best he could be each and every day, and he did just that. Though the time came when a demon would attack Ponyville! The demon's name was Ranga, the ninth demon of chains. He was one of the Nine Demons of Equestria, and the strongest of the nine!

The demon would wage a full fledged war on Ponyville. Ponyville was not expecting the sudden appear of such a fiend. It had caught them off guard and as a result, it almost succeeded in destroying Ponyville! However, Jetetsu's parents gave their lives to perform a sealing jutsu on the demon Ranga, and with their combined strength they sealed Ranga in little Jetetsu's body for a long time to come.

Jetetsu was 3 when the demon was sealed within him. Ponies thought for sure he would go berserk. They treated him lowly, with disrespect as a living pony. He was often depressed because of this, he even wanted to take his own life at some points in time. The fact that he lost his mother and father only added to the sadness, the only thing that made him keep going was that he always told himself that he would become the best! All for his parents sake!

He also found that harboring this demon inside him gave him access to his own style of jutsu! When he was 7 in the academy for ninja, Jetetsu learned he could use the chain style! He thought it was awesome, and that maybe this demon isn't all a bad thing if it never gets out of hand. Though he knew it was dangerous thinking, he thought it anyways! That's just how he was, always a risk taker. Though during this time, Jetetsu was still being branded an outcast and was still treated like a monster. He was about to give in to the darkness, he was going to let the evil take over. Then one of Ponyville's greatest jounin made his mark on Jetetsu's life. One special earth pony saved Jetetsu from the dark. His name was Senjee, and he was the only one who treated him kindly.

Senjee spent time with Jetetsu over the years, in his ninja academy days, to teach him the importance of safety when using his Jinchuriki jutsu. He also taught him the ways of the fire style! He was always learning so fast as well. By the time he was 9 he was able to perform the fireball jutsu, and the phoenix flame jutsu!

He also took up using the Kusanagi, which was a type of sword. He had started learning to use it when he turned 10. It had a 40 inch blade and an 8 inch handle. The whole sheath was black, except for the handle which was red. He received it from Senjee, who was one of Ponyville's best jounin, and also an earth pony just like Jetetsu. He gave him the sword to celebrate Jetetsu's birthday.

He continued on and on, training and beginning to master the fire style jutsus as well as the chain style. He also practiced religiously with the sword every day and night. Nothing could beat his iron will and determination to make his village proud of him. His dream was to become the best ninja in all of Equestria! But for a goal so high to reach, even Jetetsu knew he had to start small. He knew that first, he would have to be handpicked by the princesses to join the Celestial Task Force, or the C.T.F.

The C.T.F. is comprised of the best ninjas Princess Celestia and Princess Luna can find. You have to be at least jounin level to join, and you have to be good enough to be recognized and chosen by the princesses themselves! No easy feat, Jetetsu knew. Still, he believes he can enter, and rise through the ranks! Eventually he wants to become so skilled that he'll be able to challenge the princesses in battle and defeat them, and to be known as the greatest that there ever was! He vowed this to everyone every day that went by. Most called him stupid for believing he could actually do it, especially one pegasus by the name of Rioku Fushima.

Rioku was a student at the academy along with Jetetsu. He was always better than Jetetsu; he was faster, smarter, and even stronger. This always pushed Jetetsu to be better than him no matter what, he had to if he wanted to become a master. Though no matter what new skill or jutsu Jetetsu had learned, Rioku always had something to top it. Naturally, this formed a rivalry between the two.

Soon thereafter, they had reached the age of thirteen. The boys were going to graduate from the academy! After training and waiting for what seemed like forever, they were finally going to graduate. They went to the ceremony to receive their headbands, which bore the symbol of the sun.

Now they were to be assigned to three man squads. Jetetsu was determined to become the best ninja in all of Equestria! And nothing would stand in his way!
