Two and a half years after she left the Leaf Village, we find Ashley hot on the trail of the Akatsuki. Ordered to gather as much information as she can, Ashley abandoned her training in her homeland, the Land of Ambience, to pursue the members of the criminal organization. When she finally returns home, her friends are over joyed to see her again, Kiba especially. Back together again, Ashley and Kiba are happy to continue where they left off. But what will happen when one terrible decision tears them apart again? Will they be able to make it through? Will Ashley's friends ever understand her reason for leaving them again? More importantly, is the darkness in her heart, courtesy of Hakuba the Ten Tailed Wolf, real? Does Ashley truly wish to join the other side and leave everyone she ever cared about behind? And how will she react, when the Ninja World is on the verge of the biggest War in history?

Naruto left to go on his journey with Jiraiya. That leaves Mika stuck in Konoha. Not that she could get out of it because of Academy stuff and her own training. She's going to use all of her sexiness to train to get Sasuke back. The thing is, Mika isn't new to Konoha anymore and they should all be used to her by now. (Second book in the trilogy)

Harmony Akako lost her parents when she was eight years old. Don't worry, it wasn't because her family was "powerful" or had a gekki genkai. Far from it since they just owned a family restaurant. From hearing stories about the Leaf Village's ninjas she decided to go there after she lost her parents. Now she lives with biggest knuckle headed ninja! Naruto always makes her life pretty interesting for her. Harmony and Naruto have a great friendship, but it's possible they become something more. When people think Harmony is just a cute little girl it's ruined five seconds later when she curses like a sailor. Hopefully she doesn't have to use her black belt in smack talk to knock some sense into some of these total creeps thare are creepin' around. (Hint hint OROCHIMARU hint hint.) Warning: I apologize for the bad grammar and possible offensive jokes in this book. It was stupid of me to think some of them were funny at the time and I've changed the ones I've noticed, but haven't gone back through to hardcore fix them. My apologies.
