The Leaf Village isn't always the safest place, and Y/N learned that the hard way. Y/N is a a 22 year old, who is attending college to become a well known writer. Most of her classmates back at the academy are still training to become Leaf Ninja to protect the village. As cool as it sounds, it wasnt for Y/N. So, she got a well paying job at everyone's favorite ramen shop in Konoha.
After a long day at her job at Ichiraku, she walked back to her small apartment, and on her way she was attacked by two large men. To her surprise, her former classmate Kakashi Hatake came to her rescue. After seeing what happened, Kakashi offered to train her in self defense.
Y/N agrees.
As Kakashi teaches her new moves, the Hokage informs the whole Leaf Village not to leave their homes, because a deadly pandemic has taken over.
Y/N has no choice but to be stuck with Kakashi. What she thought would be a distaster, eventually turns into Y/N developing feelings she's never had before, for Kakashi. Will their relationship be a success, or will Y/N end up getting hurt?
As Claire aims to leave her oppressive stepfamily behind, she befriends Zion. Will he be her ticket to freedom or a distraction in achieving her dreams?
