- There are two sides to the Haruno family. The happy side where you are showered in love and happiness, and the not so happy side. The side where you started training when you were 4, the side where failure isn't an option. Two twins, two different lives. Sakura got the happy side, she lives with her mother while Hana was forced to leave with her father at the age of four becuase of her parent's divorce. Suddenly, the life filled with happiness and love turned bleak and into a life filled with non-stop training with no breaks. Perfection was the only option. The two twins, Sakura Haruno and Hana Haruno, who were separated at the age of four. Two whole different personalities. Two different people. Two different lives. But now, she's back in Konoha. [I do not own Naruto]

Dying for her was quick and easy. Too bad reincarnation isn't, especially when it's in your favorite anime where children throw knives and people kill for a living. -- Naka was no one special. She was a typical orphan with messy brown hair and guarded brown eyes. She was completely plain, passable for a background character who wasn't meant to appear twice. She was a quiet girl who would rather keep to herself than to stand out. But Naka had a secret no one else knew. She knew Death.

Yuko Uzumaki is the elder sister of the ramen loving knucklehead Naruto Uzumaki. Her name fits her well, which means Gentle-child. Those who know of Yuko say she is sweet, kind, very accepting, has a big heart, and a smile that could brighten up your day. Yuko is not a kunoichi of the hidden Leaf village, instead she is a civilian... or is she? Yuko has been keeping some deadly secrets from the people she loves and cares for. The biggest of them all from Naruto her own brother. What will Yuko do when the Akatsuki are looming down and Orochimaru trying to snake his hands unto Sasuke and the destruction of the Leaf? All Yuko can say is this.. Two can keep a secret if one of them is dead. (I would like to thank AnkaaSage for writing all you see above as well as for the cover of this story)

"I get to send you to another dimension, God said I could~! We made a deal and it went something like this..." He then snapped his fingers and a white board showed up. He held up his paw and pushed up some glasses that just appeared on his face. "Well, I didn't agree to become the god of the void. So, I made a deal. I get to guide those in the void and give them a good path if I get to take one of them. I decided that I'll take the 100 trillionth person and send them into a random world! Now I can guide people AND watch you from the other world! It's my sort of entertainment!" He happily explained, demolishing the white board into dust. Debris was still left over, but he snapped his fingers once more, making it vanish. "What's the world going to be?" I grumbled, angry that I didn't have any say in this. "A dangerous, yet interesting, one! I decided to make this world into a real one. According to your memories, you do not have any knowledge of what this is at all. It makes it even more fun to see people confused!" He sadistically laughs. "Where am I going? Do I get to keep my wings?" I ask, ignoring his sadistic nature. "I can't tell you where I'm sending you. Yes, you could keep your wings. And if the people mention that you don't have chakra, it'd make sense," "C-Chakra? Like Buddhism?" I ask, tilting my head. "Also, what do you mean?" "Again, I have no right to tell. Also, yes, but it is different then what you think," He says, face now going serious. His eyes flashed with a dangerous glint.

"It's interesting, the way death can imprint in one's mind. I've killed more people than most people can comprehend. Than I can comprehend. You would think that after killing so many people... I wouldn't think much of it. Their faces would blur. Yet every night, their terror filled voices sing me to sleep. Every one of their pain stricken faces loom over mine in perfect clarity begging for mercy." The Akatsuki's Crimson Assassin is a legend many have heard of. The Assassin is even rumored to challenge the power of the great Madara Uchiha. Little would anyone expect the Assassin to be Imari Uchiha, a twelve year old girl who grew up with out her mother and lived under the loving care of her father. Now, she's faced with a task she dreads even more than taking another's life: Going to Konoha.
