    Summary

    There's a quote that comes to mind: “Treat a man as he is, and he will remain as he is. Treat a man as he could be, and he will become what he should be.” If they'd been smart, the citizens of Konoha would have realized this. If you call a boy a monster, then a monster he shall be. Natsume has a head full of a past life's knowledge and the sinking realization that in this world, no one will step up to protect him and Naruto. So he learns to do it himself, even if it means staining his hands so Naruto can keep his clean.

    Summary

    She remembered dying.

    What she did not expect was, after what amounted to drowning in her own fluids at thirty-two years old, was instead of whatever made up the afterlife, she opened her eyes in a world both somehow familiar as well as altogether strange.

    She’d been tired for a long time before she died.  However she’d been granted a second life, she was never going to thank anyone for it, no matter how amazing or awful it ended up being.  That said, if she ever met the reason she was sucked into the Naruto ‘verse, there would be much shin-kicking to be done.

    Summary

    Standing in a T&I observation room three stories underground behind one-way glass with his arms crossed and feet spread hip-width apart, Kakashi watches Root operative, orphan, missing person of eight years, civilian born Haruno Sakura spit blood in Yamanaka Inoichi’s face, a small chunk of flesh stuck between her lateral incisor and cuspid as she snarls like an animal, and thinks:

    She should have been on his team.

    In which Sakura forgets, Sai pretends, and Kakashi can't tell if he's failing the mission.

    Summary

    The Fourth Shinobi War wasn't going well. Shinobi were dying right-left-and-center. Ono Toshiko had done what she could to avoid it - and failed.

    Her little brother had a plan. A fail-safe. A seal attached to her heart, mind, and chakra network so that if his latest knuckle-headed scheme to fix their world failed, there would still be hope.

    She agreed but prayed nonetheless that a miracle would occur and after the war was over Naruto would take the seal off of her.

    She should have known better.

    After all - if there were deities listening, they clearly had no mercy for a reincarnated soul. Especially not enough to *not* force her to do it all over again. Only in a new body, and a new time.

    An A/U of Reincarnation for the Win.

    Sakura sees ghosts and the only person less pleased about it than her is Kakashi-sensei.
