Found with no head band and belonging to no village, Misaki is taken in by the Village Hidden in the Sound. Who is Misaki? The man with the glasses wouldn't tell her, the sullen youth doesn't want to get involved, and the man with the sweep of dark hair sent chills down her spine. Even in Konoha, Misaki is still on the pale man's leash with Kabuto following right behind. Sasuke can only observe. Will Misaki's new family embrace her or be forced to condemn her?

She was a girl lost, struggling to find out who she was while making a new identity as a shinobi of Tsukigakure. He was a boy driven by rage and pain, running from his past in an attempt to take out the one who destroyed everyone he cares for. When Sasaui Fukui and and Shizake Uchiha meet, they find just how close their paths intersect. *collab of Bre2k9 and Shizake19**cover by SBgirl04*

THIS STORY HAS BEEN ABANDONED, PLEASE READ THE CHAPTER WHY ISN'T THERE MORE FOR DETAILS!!! Taint is a dangerous poison. Once it begins, it spreads without limit. It will swallow everything in its path if it is not stopped. Such as all poisons, taint begins somewhere. Uchiha Sasaui only wanted to become a great Konoha kunoichi and make her family proud. Mokushi Hikaru fought to simply feel what her own heart told her. Shoutai Taro struggled to become who others demanded he be. Heijin Megumi fell only to find how hard it was to climb back up. No one knew just what the taint had planned for their own paths. *prequel stories to Tainted Guardian* *thank you Artic_Sky for the cover*

The end is on the rise. The truth isn't what it seems anymore. It's covered by lies that are covered by more lies. In this ninja world everything is a facade, almost a fake place to be where peace is unattainable and murder is the norm. A survivor, out of the smoke and dust fights through this world, trying to put the pieces together. In a world where the golden truth is covered by smut and falsehoods... how do you make sense of it all? Shizake lost everything that night - along with Sasuke, his cousin. It changed the two in unimaginable ways. While the slaughter of hundreds of innocents drove Sasuke to leave the village in search of more power, Shizake was left alone but more determined than ever. The path which they once travelled on together became one split in two.

"Science fiction writers foresee the inevitable, and although problems and catastrophes may be inevitable, solutions are not." - Isaac Asimov This piece is intended as a bit of a Help guide, a point of reference and hopefully something people will enjoy, as ultimately all of you will have different experiences reading and writing science fiction, and writing in general.
