Mixing of Snow and Sand

Mia Hosaka, the only survivor from the Village Hidden in the Snow, a village long forgotten from the attack of Orochimaru's soldiers. Mia wanders from place to place in search of answers that she knows she'll never get. When she comes across Might Guy, a long time friend of her father's, she is taken to the Village Hidden in the Leaves in order to transcend to the next rank of a Shinobi: Chunin.
During these exams she comes across The Three Sand Siblings, three Shinobi that pose a severe threat to her ambitions.
