Prompt #11: Hollow

Tenten is hollow.

It's hard for her to think that she could have foreseen this. She was the complete opposite of hollow for most of her fifteen years. Never would she have dreamt that the Hyuuga could have taken most of her along with all of him when he jumped (stupidlygallantlynobly) in the middle.

As she flings weapon by weapon onto targets without fail, she can't help but think that in this optimism, she's just another unrecorded casualty of war. She is one of the living reminders of the sacrifice the peace of Konoha needed.

She hates them for it. Sometimes.
