Taken from the Hidden Mist as a child, you grow up in the shadows of the Akatsuki. Your blood jutsu makes you a living weapon, capable of controlling your own life force and the lives of others.
Despite captivity, you refuse to let the darkness fully claim you. You're outgoing where others are cold, silly when the world is cruel, and fiercely stubborn when told to obey. You laugh too loud, care too deeply, and protect people even when it costs you everything. That softness is both your greatest strength and your greatest liability. Bound by a deadly jutsu that will kill you if you try to escape, you endure the Akatsuki while quietly resisting them-until fate brings you face-to-face with someone who understands silence better than anyone else.
When your path crosses Gaara's, you offer him something he has never known: optimism without expectation, warmth without fear. Your smile becomes a quiet rebellion against the darkness he was raised in, and slowly, impossibly, he falls in love with the light you carry.
