Temptation by jezxzica

He reaches into his collar with two fingers and tugs it away from his sweaty neck. I pry into his presence until I can't any longer. He understood every damn word I just said to him, so his terrified eyes are piercing into mine. "What on Earth are you doing Adira?" he struggles to ask me. The fight against this gift is similar to the fight against mind control, except you have to battle your own urge for relief as well. After all this time I've spent seducing him, he should know exactly what I am now. -------------------------- 2102 is quiet the leap in time. Intergalactic travel, aliens, and even powers are what the world becomes known for. There is still a normal, functioning society to account for though. One ruled by an unfair leader that most of the country detests. When Adira Stefano finally gets her long awaited gift, she fears being forced into hiding. However, when she discovers someone that has faith in her, she realizes that true change is her new daunting temptation.

Days were busy, schedules were hectic, all until she was magically transported to the Shinobi World on a very ordinary night. It is very soon that she finds herself in the hands of the Senju Clan who wish to use her for their protection and victory in the war that has been going on for decades. Sara complies to help, for there is nothing else she can do while remaining under their protection. Though missing her life as a designer, she soon settles into a slow, uneventful life in the Shinobi World. But it is uneventful until, by some twist of fate, she falls into the hands of one of the era's most powerful and feared shinobi - Uchiha Madara.
