Age Of Innocence

Hinata had long grown out of her own skin, seeking out the raw power which she had been taught to want.

She starts anew, amongst those alike to her who dedicated their lives to shifting and prospering in terms where power becomes their personal description, away from the burdens of feeling and bonding.

An asignment is given to her. To protect the future of Konoha, the child of the one who she had wasted her young years upon.

Will that child, which is not even her own, reach out to her in a way she forgot existed? How did that girl become a mirror to her own past and possibly, future?

In spite of her reluctance, will she begin to crack upon the pressure and start seeing those around her in an entirely new light?

Uchiha Sasuke used to be a comrade, a friend, a relieving existance and a way to pleasure. What would happen if he realizes that those feelings of lust and comfort began to shift into need and adiction?

What had they been to each other all along?
