Spin Me Round Again
I sat there, confused. Why would I be asked to go work in the orphanage? I was an elite Jounin, not a…babysitter! I knew those words I thought where fowl, and hung my head in shame. Sarutobi usually knew what he was doing but…I hardly dared to believe he was wrong.
My heart ached every time I saw a homeless man, and I nearly killed myself to see a child hurt. My emotions where too strong but I wanted so much to help…
"Well?" Sarutobi asked expectantly.
"Hai Hokage-sama." I replied; a single tear fell from underneath my face mask. "I will do my best."
Sarutobi's heart softened at the sight of this girl. She had so many foster homes…and still turned out okay. She had a long scar going all the way across her leg to her should diagonally, which was why she was taken away from her caretakers. Each one would add to the scar, like a twisted game.
"Amarante…" I glanced up, looking at him. His words were soft. "You know what these kids went through, it's a living hell. I choose you for this because I know you will care for them like nobody has ever been able too."
Looking up at him, I just bowed. "Yes; Kazekage-sama." In a flash, she was gone.
Sarutobi was hesitant to give this girl her mission, she was mentally unstable once they found her a good foster parent, and then the parent was murdered after she turned Genin. Her nightmares got o bad, the neibours called ANBU to stop her from screaming in her sleep.
But that only made her work harder, but she would forever be Amarante, a name bestowed on her because her old one didn't suit her.
"Amarante," he whispered. "Flower that never fades."
But she was more then a flower, so much more.
