Sakura, who is often sent on solo diplomatic missions on behalf of the Hokage, makes an unlikely ally on her travels. itasaku (note since y'all keep complaining: I also ship SasuHina so SasuHina is in this story. It's in the tags. I don't care if you ship them or not, this is literally a crack ship fic. Quit being an asshole.)

When Sakura was three, her father told her he was a criminal. When she was seven, the last thing she saw of him was the sword on his back. When she was eight, she had a friend named Kiba. When they were twelve, they met Shino. And when they were genin, they began to fight for the truth because they could no longer fight for the sake of Konoha.

Cashile Kuroki has discovered the Frailty of Genius, the shortcomings of prodigious talent, the weakness that comes with strength. Standing alone she fell, with no one to catch her as she hit the ground. Now the question is whether or not she can grow back from her own failure, find resilience in the weakness, foster the power that comes with those who care... And discover The Strength of Humanity. This is the sequel to our first book, The Frailty of Genius.

Cashile Kuroki is alone. No family, and no friends. Not exactly hated, just.... ignored. Just how she likes it. She's viewed as reckless and ambitious, but she's always in control. Every move is calculated, every person is observed. She controls people, her "friends", her life. Yet, there's the mystery: why does she care for her selfish ambitions alone? Why is she bent on proving that she can be the best by herself? Will she ever learn to give up her act of strength, and trust? Or will she fall, the cause of her own destruction? Genius only goes so far, and the flaws and frailties will eventually catch up to her. The act of strength is, after all, only an act.

[Book One] "I'm proud of who I am. A thief, a lone traveler who never stops running. Just watch me, I will fight and survive, for me and by myself." Akai is not a shinobi. She's just a travelling mercenary with no destination. Okay... 'mercenary' is just the kind way to call her... She's also a thief. Merely just for the thrill. She did everything she wants, no rules can stop her. Until she stumbled upon Konoha. A warm, peaceful place, unlike her 'home'. The people's kindness is something new for her. Will she stay? Or will she continue her old life, messing with other people and running away? | * | * | * | * | * | DISCLAIMER: We do not own Naruto. Naruto belongs to Masashi Kishimoto ©MidnightPilots

~Completed~ This book starts off like your stereotypical sucked-in Naruto fanfiction. Main character has sucky parents (parent- there's only one), and leaves home to explore a forest. She's traveling in this conveniently-placed forest behind her house, and finds a really weird tree. She falls asleep at the base of it and stuff happens. Of course, when she wakes up, she's in the shinobi world. Who would've guessed, right? Not the reader, obviously... But now things get different. She's not anywhere near Konoha, or Suna, or even Kiri! She's in the middle of a random forest, she looks completely different, and she's got new clothes. Oh, and there's an egg in her pocket. The egg hatches into a little dragon, and they wander around the forest together. Until they find a strange cabin, and an even stranger old man. Blah blah blah, stuff happens, and then Orochimaru appears! Along with her long-lost twin brother she didn't even know she had! It's a bit cliche... More stuff, a time skip, a tiny bit of Konoha, a new village, few answers, and finally the main cast appears around chapter 29. Enjoy! ~Editing in Progress~ Cover made by ILoveWolvezz!!
