Title: Until We All Fall Down
Authoress: XxMookinexX
Summary: We both knew it could happen. We'd seen the signs. Even so, standing there with that scene laid-out before me, I couldn't help but feel like someone had stabbed a kunai deep into my chest and was cruelly twisting it, slowly ripping my heart to shreds.
Pairings: Gaara Ino, Shikamaru Temari, Naruto Hinata Kiba, Sasuke Sakura, Neji Tenten. Obviously Naruto and Lee like Sakura and Ino likes Sasuke, Chouji likes Ino, Ino and Shika have a very deep and complex relationship, and the same for Naruto and Sakura… Then again, if you've read the manga, you know all of this is implied (save for the Gaara thing, but I like the idea of that pairing.) I have no definite idea of who will finally end up with whom, although I have a vague one. NOTE - these pairings are subject to change as the entire story has not been written yet.
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or any of its characters, I only wish I did. Any and all unrecognisable characters and situations belong solely to me and are not to be touched without permission. I am not making any money off of this and I write with the soul purpose to entertain. This disclaimer applies to all future chapters in this fanfiction.
A/N: I do not intend to use an OC as a main character, they will merely be background people mentioned in passing to make this more realistic. Any characters which appear OOC are written that way out of a desire to keep them in character according to the situations I have placed them in.
Situation: This story takes place when our characters are 18/19. I haven't got the brains to try and predict what will happen plot wise after this point, so this takes account of everything up to chapter 337 of the manga. I've only watched up to episode 126 of the anime.
As a result the situation is that no more characters have died, there is no outside threat from Akatski or Orochimaru… basically everything is resolved. The fifth is still Hokage, but she's dying because she cut so much time off her life-span. She is on the verge of retiring, but has not done so yet because she wants Naruto to succeed her… It's inevitable that he will be one day and he obviously is in high favour with her but he's a bit too young to take the position just yet. Something like that... oh, and Sasuke's back and somehow has already regained their trust.
I know I'm cutting a lot of corners with this, but as I've already said, I'm not intelligent enough to predict the plot and I'm not a good enough writer to improvise this as the later chapters are released and the storyline is revealed. This should be in Ino's POV.
Thank you!
