Beginning of the End
Note: This is going to be an Ino-centric fic, since there aren't many Ino fics out there, I decided to write one. I only have a vague idea of the fic, I am making up things as I go. Please bear with me. Also this is my first fic, please be gentle
Its blood shed everywhere, the war is still going on, they have lost many of their friends, she still remembers the day Chouji died, she couldn't save him in the end, just like she couldn't save Asuma. They are all fighting a pointless war which showed no signs of victory only death and despair.
Shikamaru and Naruto are discussing in the tent, she could hear their heated arguments. She doesn't have any energy left to play the peacemaker, War took toll on everyone, her included. After all playing with enemies minds takes toll on one's mind too. Sakura's betrayal hit her the hardest, after all she was the one who wanted her to blossom, but she never expected that Sakura's obsession with Sasuke will lead to such drastic choices.
Naruto the optimistic fool, still believes that she can bring Sasuke and Sakura back and fix everything. Then again both of them are beyond saving. Sudden movements bought Ino back from her musings, she saw set of ninjas led by Sasuke and Sakura running towards their camp. She quickly alerted Naruto and Shikamaru.
Ino and Sakura were engaged in a fierce battle, though both of them are equally matched, Sakura had the advantage of self-healing technique, In the end Ino fell by Sakura's hand. It was ironic to say the least, the person she wanted to grow into a beautiful Sakura blossom ended up being a poisonous vine. As she closed her eyes to give into the eternal darkness Ino wished for another chance.
A chance to undo what is done, to fix what is broken and to heal.
