PROLOGUE
Haru no Kou.
Spring Rainfall.
It sounds nice until you realize it's a name.
Haruno Kou.
Her hair was darker than her sister's and more vibrant than her father's. Her eyes were like her mother's in color, but like her mother's father's in shape. No one knew where the dark shade of her skin came from; it was opposite her mother's porcelain complexion and even a few shades darker than her father's sunkissed skintone.
Haruno Kou.
She held secrets like no other.
She protected her sister like a mother would her child.
She entered the Shinobi Academy at four and graduated at ten.
She saw more and knew more than anyone in the world would ever know.
