Weeks has passed since the last incident. Everyone was fully healed and happy that everything had turned into normal again. No more mysterious persons trying to hunt anyone down. [Name] has finally gotten the rank of Chuunin, thanks to her brave actions to save Neji. Many within the shinobi forces were very doubting about Tsunade's decision, but that didn't change the woman's mind. Shortly afterwards [Name] got her own apartment, quite central in Konoha. Her team had helped her getting settled in the small apartment and after they invited everybody to celebrate [Name]. As for the three girls, they had already left through the rift they came from. Anastasia told them about the advanced technology behind it but no one didn't really seem to understand besides Shikamaru. It had been a tearful farewell from Sam, Sophiá and Anastasia as well from their companions. Tsunade told them they were welcome back anytime, but Anastasia declined while stating.

"We have already done enough here. First we are the chaos then we bring the chaos, we don't want to make your realm suffer anymore. We need to save our realm from those who wants to hurt the innocent."

When they left the same kind of lightning struck down, but instead of someone arriving, the girls disappeared. [Name] could've sworn that she saw Anastasia mouthing "Thank you" right before the lightning took them away.

Neji and [Name] were walking together in downtown Konoha. It was night and the stars were clear, shining brightly. The night was cool and it was quite nice. The two were simply walking and holding hands, keeping up a small conversation.

"You remember?" Neji asks her, a little bit shocked about what he heard.

"Yeah, ever since I 'died' my memories has steadily gotten back to me." [Name] looks thoughtfully on the sky before she continues.

"Thanks to Brynhild I can remember about my life, who I used to be, what I did in my life and what got me here." She looked seriously at Neji.

"Do you want to know who I am?"

Neji nodded without any hesitation.

The first memories I can think of is ruins of an old palace. It was made out of stone so it almost looked medieval. Nature had starting taking over which made different kinds of plants had found a new home here. I lived here by myself. I don't know if my parents abandoned me or were dead, but it didn't matter because I could handle myself thanks to my powers. I did everything and it worked out just fine because that was the way I was used to do it. However my days of being alone and in peace came to an end. A group of wanderers had seen me during my hunting trips and reported me as a lost kid. So I was captured for my "own sake". I was young, yes, but I was no fool. I knew exactly why they were taking me, it was because of my telepathy. They called themselves my new family. I wasn't convinced, of course. The strange men brought me to some sort of prison where I was staying for awhile. I wasn't imprisoned, rather it was like a home for me. The facility was big and there wasn't only prison cells, I had free access to everything. I cannot remember its name however, that's where I met the girl and my first friend that sung that lullaby. Although my time there was short before I was sent away once more, I had tons of fun thanks to that girl. If I remember correctly her name was Neko...

Then I arrived at my own personal hell. From the first day they put my trough rigorous tests that I would call torture instead. My entire being was put under heavy medicine and drugs to see how a child's body would react. It was terrifying, I would never wish this upon my worst enemy. Slowly losing grip of who I was and what I am my senses resorted to insanity. I was suppressed and my alter ego was in charge now. We know her as Brynhild. It was an endless fight between us but in the end she was the one who usually won my body over, I was too weak. The scientist that were working with me wasn't concerned even when my body was acting so violently towards them, I don't even want to know how many people my body have killed... I never wanted to kill anyone. But all I could do was just watch as Brynhild slaughtered people over and over and over again. Instead of fighting I gave up, too scared to fight myself. I had just assumed that I was too weak to ever stand a chance against her. The consciousness known as 'me' had died. However, we know how the story goes, it didn't end there. One day they overdosed me with something that made Brynhild go berserk, once again I was stuck watching her kill innocents that were just following orders. My powers went overboard and chaos surely came. I remember the bright flash. Screams of horror and desperation. The smell of blood were everywhere, I couldn't escape it. Suddenly everything was gone. Then, a bright familiar ceiling. My mind was nothing, an empty void. When they asked me questions I couldn't do anything. Who am I?

Oh...

That is right.

[Name] is my name.

My past isn't a part of me.

I am [Name] of Konohagakure.

And I brought fate into my own hands.
