Kodoku {Naruto Fan-Fiction}

War. The one thing to remain constant throughout human history. It brings nations to their knees and brazens the land they are built upon. It has the power to either tear apart a family or unite them under one common goal.

War. It never changes. No matter what time it is in history, war is practically always present. Sometimes the ones most affected by war are the children. Children who have never known anything but war are forced to live the most tender years of their life through it.

There are many stories of these tragedies but one in particular will always stand out. The story of two fraternal twins who would be separated from one another due to fighting within their nation. These twins, Hikari and Hikaru Mitarashi, are citizens of the Village Hidden in the Mist.

During one invasion in the middle of the night their lives were changed forever. During the invasion, Hikari, the female of the two, would be taken hostage by the enemy nation and taken to a far away and unknown nation. Her brother, Hikaru, was devastated by this turn of events, vowed to become stronger so that he could venture away and rescue his dear sister.

However, many tears await Hikaru on his journey through the shinobi lands years after the abduction . . . but are they filled with sorrow or anger?

{ Note: I own no Canon characters that may be mentioned in this twisted Naruto Fan-Fiction. All Canon characters and the base of Naruto belong to none other than the marvelous, Masashi Kishimoto. If you're squeemish about blood, I ask that you don't read---don't read if you can't handle a detailed description of a gory scene either! You've been warned . . . READ WITH CAUTION! }
