After years of being on the road training with Master Jiraiya, Meilani finally returns home to her adoptive brother in the Hidden Leaf. With her, she brings a great deal of self-determination to both make up for lost time, and to keep a few promises made. Unfortunately, tragedy strikes the village and it appears to cause a rippling effect on nearly everything she knew about the home that took her in, and the memories of her past. -Slow burn with Kakashi Hatake. -I own nothing except my OC's.
