Mikomi
It was a dark, rainy evening. The normally crowded streets of Konohagakure no Satou were devoid of life, the bustling market empty. It was through these streets that one Haruno Sakura walked, her bright pink hair a beacon in the twilight.
I'm soo in for it, she thought. I shouldn't have stayed behind to study.
She picked up the pace, jogging through the gloom, towards home. She couldn't know what was waiting for her.
Uzumaki Naruto was sitting on top of the Yondaime's head, swinging his feet over the edge, looking down at the village.
"Hey old men," he murmured, petting the stone head. "How ya doin'?"
His normally spiky blonde hair was flattened by the rain, and reflected in his cerulean eyes, was the spectre of pain.
I better go, he thought. I don't want another beating for being up here.
He turned and walked off, each step slow, weighted. He knew what was waiting for him.
Sasuke walked home, through the damaged gates of the Uchiha Estate, hands buried deep in his pockets. Itachi's words floated through his mind as he gazed towards the Uchiha Shrine.
Under the seventh tatami, lies the Uchiha Commentary scroll. It holds all the secrets of the clan.
Sasuke's legs stopped their forward motion, before turning towards the shrine.
Splashing through puddles of tears from the sky, he wondered at what he would find.
AN: Well, there you go. The first chapter of Mikomi is up. Next chapter should be up soon. For future reference, I will be posting any jutsu or unfamiliar terms down here. Thanks!
