Skin and Bones
Life isn't fair - it never was fair and it never will be, not for you, not for the children forced to fight in a never-ending war, not for anyone. But count yourself lucky that unlike everyone else here, you have - had - something that nobody else has. After all, in your first world you had everything. Rebirth OC, Warring Era.
Prologue
Because there is a girl, somewhere, somehow, who disappears from one world and slips through the fingers of death, the afterlife - or whatever it's supposed to be called - and appears in another. She wants to move on from the past, and yet the past is now her present and her future. What she once called fiction has become reality, a fact truer than her own existence.
If this was a book, Naoko thinks, this is how the book would start. The book that describes her life (or rather, her lives?) - oh, her biography, that's what it's called, that's what they would have called it Before - would start in this manner.
It'd be a book in which people rarely get what they want. It'd be a book in which the real harshness and true horror of the world of many fangirls' and fanboys' dreams is revealed. It'd be a book starting and ending in disparity, and filled with nothing but disparity because that's what her life is - a mixture of only disparity, confusion and despair.
Oh, right.
She has to be optimistic. Even though the world she's living in is a hellhole, even though she did nothing to deserve this, and even though everything is pretty much guaranteed to go to shit because of the time and the world she's living in (curse Kishimoto!), it could be worse. After all, she could have ended up as Madara - a disgusting man who ended up destroying everything in order to try and achieve nothing. He obliterated everything and everyone around him. She would hate to be him.
…Not that she ended up much better as a kunoichi living in his generation.
Well, that was a stupid move.
