We Are Shinobi (Naruto Fanfic)
What is a Shinobi? Misaki often finds herself questioning that. From a small village, she had no choice but to become a ninja. Her leader needed her skills... but she wanted nothing more than to lead a normal life. Ninja from her small village die on missions and when she requests a leave, she's sent out of the village instead.
How will she do when she is assigned a mission to Konoha? Will a certain ANBU change her mind about the Shinobi world, in spite of his own hatred for this life as well?
What will happen when a strange figure saves Misaki's life then offers her a deal down a dark, unknown path?

『Excerpt from the story:』
"...what does it mean to be a Shinobi in this village? Just to die... be killed without reason. It's all so pointless."
His eyes shimmer with pain. I know the look as I have seen it on myself in the mirror.
His voice has lost its lazy monotone and is spiked with emotion I never thought the ANBU was capable of. "Ninja don't die for no reason... they live to die for the ones they care about... to protect their village and-" the last word is barely audible, "-comrades."
He leaves without another word, sliding his ANBU mask on and disappearing into the night air. Had I said something wrong?
