History: Sudachi Kokoro has few memories of their parents, and their older brother didn't share much with them. All Kokoro knows is that one of Kirigakure's ceaseless conflicts took them. Their childhood was spent living like rats, taking what they must, stealing what they could.
When Yoshitsune manifested their kkg. It got worse.
Things only started looking up when Yoshitsune went to the academy. A small apartment on his stipend, little food, but at least dependable food, and a future with more than they could dream for on the horizon. Then Yoshitsune came back from graduation completely broken.
It was then that Kokoro learned that their ever dependable brother wasn't perfect and couldn't take care of them. Though eventually, with Kokoro's care, he got back on his feet, and their lives improved, Kokoro had learned the lesson. Even better, their brother wasn't the same. And the bright future was much more flawed than Kokoro imagined. If Kokoro wanted that future for themself. They'd have to take it. So they enlisted.
The academy was hard, and Kokoro learned quickly how it had broken their brother. Kokoro was treated badly, as a no one, as a poor orphan, as a freak with strange abilities. Kokoro knew it would be hard, knew how they would be treated. They hardened their heart and endured
Tamako, a genin of their year, eventually assumed the role of Kokoro's protector. She was a cold girl who Kokoro found difficult to raise. They were unsure if Tamako saw them as a friend, a pet, or a tool. And so Kokoro stayed indifferent to her despite the protection she afforded them. Kokoro's heart was a small slave with little room for others.
Kokoro's only safe haven was a forgotten temple on the edge of the harbor district, nearly outside of Kirigakure completely. It was more cave than temple, and old. In its center was a deep saltwater well. Some days Kokoro could see magnificent aquarium-like views, others it was pitch black. It was a secret place Kokoro had visited and played in their entire childhood, they had never even shown their brother. Kokoro cleaned and maintained the temple with genuine sincerity for the little piece of gentle solitude they had.
A week before graduation Kokoro was pulled into the well by The First Fear. Within the depths of the well, drowning and desperate, a pact was struck, and a bit of that fear crawled into Kokoro's heart and stayed.
On the day of graduation. Kokoro, and the creature, the animal in the dark, struck. While they were only required to live until the bell rang and kill one student in that time, Kokoro did more than that. They killed everyone who had ever tormented them (and a few others who got in their way). Kokoro's graduation was a surprise to their sensei and ever surviving classmate.
Kokoro didn't bother at all with going through the bother of team placement. They knew how that would turn out for someone like them. So they directly enlisted in the genin corps without bothering to wait for team assignments.
