Memorial
She's sitting in front of the memorial, staring at it, though she can barely see it through her deteriorated eyesight.
But that's ok. The names on it are engraved in her mind as surely as they are the stone. It's hard for her to believe that she's the last one left. The last if the rookie nine and the Konoha eleven.
She reaches out to run her fingers over the names and faces flash in her mind as she recalls each of them. The first, the one at the top is young. Too young, a teenager still when he was killed during the war.
The next is older, a woman in her thirty's, but still far too young in her opinion.
They continue like that, gradually getting older until she gets to the last name. That man appears has he did in their youth, though he was far older when he died.
She sighs as she hears someone approaching from behind.
"I thought I would find you here, Mum."
She turns to face the indistinct shapes and colours which make up her son. The son who looks so much alike the last name and face on the memorial.
"You miss them don't you?" he asks as he leads her from the cemetery.
"Yes. But don't you dare go thinking that I'll be joining them any time soon!"
So who do you think 'She' is? In my mind she was one character, but I guess she could be whichever you want!
Review? Please?
