Eri Zayaka is the last of her bloodline and the last user of her clan's kekkai genkai. When she finds her way into Konoha to escape the same fate as the rest of her clan, she falls into the safe and capable hands of the Copy Ninja, Kakashi Hatake. Eri eventually earns the trust of the new village and proves herself as a talented and capable kunoichi, but not without the consistent and assuring help of the man who initially kept her safe. He grows a special compassion for the lonely woman, and in doing so he realizes his own loneliness and how much she filled that strange and unfamiliar hole in his heart. [this story exists on a similar time frame to the original series, but it takes place on an alternate timeline, so some events may have occurred in Naruto, and some may have changed. Still, the story will contain spoilers from Naruto and Naruto Shippuden.] *I'm trying something new with this story to better fit my busy schedule, and hopefully you like it! I'm going to be writing shorter chapters (600-900 words), so hopefully you can get the most out of a quick read with relatively consistent updates. [I only own my original character: Eri Zayaka. The other characters are canon to the Naruto series]

Years down the road, Katsume has built herself a career as a renown bounty hunter. Coming home after over a year chasing a bounty, she finds a scroll spilling the secret that her mother is alive.

~ for all those women who say fuck Prince Charming, give me the silver-haired sensei with a fucked-up past. Master Jiraiya once said, "Ultimately, everything is connected," but for me, this couldn't be further from the truth. Drapetomania: (n.) An overwhelming urge to run away (from home, from a bad situation, from responsibility...). Now that was something I could identify with. I ran away from it all. At least once, sometimes twice or even more. But all I did was run away from my inescapable problems. But I'm hoping to find the solution in the place where it all began. Konohagakure. It's been so long, too long. Would anyone even recognise me? Would I recognise them? I was told at the time that a person wears three faces. 1. the one you show to the world. 2. the one you show to close friends and family. 3. the one you never show to anyone. Your truest reflection of who you are. Which face will Kakashi get to see of me? . All characters belong to the legend himself, Masashi Kishimoto ♥. Only Hanako Uchiha, some minor characters and this story belong to me. Nina Sarutobi belongs to my dear best friend @ladymoo20. Thank you for allowing me to have your girl in my story. It changed everything and I couldn't imagine The Fate of the Uchiha without Miss Sarutobi. I send you endless love, thank you. ♥ My Sun

"I...care about you," he said it as if it was the most absolute truth in the world. His face was dampened with sweat and someone else's blood, and sparks from his chidori flew everywhere. And even as the enemy ninja attacked him from all sides, his eyes never left yours. You'd known that he'd confess eventually, but you didn't think it'd be in the heat of battle. - - - In the present, Rokudaime Hokage, Kakashi Hatake, receives a late night visit from one of his former students. 17 years in the past, ANBU operative (Y/N) (L/N) struggles to ward off her feelings for her new squad captain.

Continuation of the story :) Hatake Kakashi and other Naruto characters © Kishimoto Masashi All art by me ^^ (@violetvelourr on Instagram) If you like the story, please do vote and I'd love to hear your feedback - it really inspires to continue! Thank you so much!

After tragedy strikes, Kakashi and (Y/N) go five years without seeing each other. A lot can happen in that time frame. A lot of misunderstandings could arise, and that's exactly what happens. The two have to sort out their feelings towards each other and face their shared trauma in order to move on and allow themselves to be happy. But will they allow themselves to?

This is a complete reworking of my story "Bump Buddies". So if you've read the original, throw out everything you think you know and remember and start anew! Y/N has always struggled to find a family to call her own. Her biological parents abandoned her, her adoptive ones died tragically and her adoptive brothers are both too selfish to give her the time of day. She's good at hiding how hurt it makes her feel, but little does she know one bad decision will lead to the family she's always dreamed of. It's not conventional, it's not ideal, but it sure is entertaining. I love everyone that supported the first story but I'm so embarrassed by it due to how young I was when it was written. Now, 6 years later I want to try again and make it worth your time. So let's enjoy this new adventure together!
