Lyra knew that one day she would be set into an arranged marriage like a chess piece. She had been preparing for it her whole life, and she was almost alright with her fate. But she never thought that her father would choose the man that he did. That decision changed everything. The King of Whales is ruthless, more than twice her age and surrounded by tainted gold and loads of unsavory rumors. There have been many wives of his before Lyra, with no explanations to the untimely deaths of the previous five. With each dead Queen came more money from their kingdoms, straight into the King's portly lap. Disguised as a young man, Lyra runs from her duty as the only Princess of Nordic. She cuts her hair, takes her steed and disappears into the night with her father's men hot on her heels. Enter Kaladin's team. Occupation: Mercenaries. Lyra uses skills taught to her by a close, childhood friend and plays herself into the trust of the dangerous strangers until they accept her, or rather, "Navani", into their group. What will happen to her once they see through her web of lies and tricks? Will Lyra give herself up as Princess when she is reunited with her long-lost friend, or will she carry on as a boy with the mercenaries? Follow Lyra to see what she will do when she comes to realize that things have gotten far too big for her to handle on her own. There are assassin's out for her head, king's thirsting for her blood, and an underground network of people who live for her ruin. But there is also an unlikely Prince to defend her, who has some tricks of his own to rely on. The Princess soon sees that she is not nearly as alone as she may have once thought. What will Lyra do when she comes to terms with her destiny? Will she face it this time with her new friends, or will she chose to run away again? Cover made by @-rebellixus-

Years ago, a nine-tailed fox demon attacked the land, killing hundreds of Ninjas defending their villages. By sealing the fox demon and giving his life, the fourth Hokage was able to save the Hidden Leaf Village in the Land of Fire. The demon was sealed in one of two new-born twins, a boy and girl. The boy, who had the demon, was born first sealing his fate. The younger sister was taken moments after her birth by S-ranked criminals, as ransom, mistaking her for her brother. When they learned they had the wrong twin, they kept her to train as a servant. They named her Haruka. For 9 long years, they cruelly trained her, making her strong to do whatever they wished, never expecting her to learn of her origins, her brother, or to ever leave. Yet, one day she did. Formally called Guardian. And the amazing cover? Made by @IzayaKibaRyujiFREAK ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Okay, just wanted to say something... I know this plot is probably the most cliché one, but I know that. I wanted to try and reinvent the cliché though. It will probably be different then you expect. It's kind of a test run for me, but I like how it's going. So please give it a chance, and if it's horrible, tell me so I can fix it or trash it. Thanks! I DON'T OWN NARUTO AT ALL!! I'M ONLY SAYING THIS ONCE, BECAUSE IF YOU'RE READING THIS,THEN YOU SHOULD KNOW TRUE OWNER!! ^_^
