"Who are you so afraid of?", he asked.
"It doesn't matter. They'll get me sooner or later", I said.
"Who?", he asked again.
I looked down at my feet.
"My own people...My family..."
Shani Hokane, 22 years old, didn't have an easy life. Before her 18th birthday, she was meant to serve her clan. The way they raised her, allowed her to protect it from anyone, who even tried to end them. And there were many. Many who tried, failed and ended up dying in an unforgettable pain. Shani personally made sure of it.
But one day, before she turned 18, something snapped inside of her and she changed her mind. She didn't want to serve the unknown "Hokane-Clan" anymore. But why is she still running away from it, even if she left nearly 4 years ago?
What is it she's so afraid of?
Will a white haired man, she accidently met, help her forget her past or will he deliver her more pain, than she has ever experienced in her life?

He's Just My Best Friend | a Kakashi love story
Mika Uchiha is the heir to the Uchiha clan, and she hates it. Her father pressures her to be perfect, even after her brother Itachi comes along and takes her place as heir. To cope, she leans on her best friend Kakashi. Especially after the Uchiha massacre that leaves her to care for Sasuke alone. Mika and Kakashi have been best friends since they were five, but could they be more? Everyone else seems to think so. When will they realize it? A few comments. This is my first time writing a whole story that I actually like enough to publish online, so please be kind. This is a Kakashi story, but it also focuses a lot on my OC's relationship with her family. I don't own anything that happens in Naruto! Only my OC and any plot points that weren't in the original show! Thanks for reading!Complete
Preventing The Inevitable
In which Sakura tries to figure out if she's been sent to the past-or an alternate universe with suspicious tweaks. Dying was everything she had expected, an inevitable event, bound to happen sooner rather than later (a lot sooner, actually)-an unstoppable force, driven by the arm of a rabbit goddess piercing through her, and just barely not enough will to survive. And yet, it was nothing she could've ever prepared for. Not when she found herself four years old again, and a pink-haired stranger roamed her strangely empty house, claiming to be her brother. - "Sakura had one thought, waking up screaming her lungs out. Shit. Because she wasn't supposed to be screaming. She wasn't supposed to have a voice at all. And she sure as hell wasn't supposed to know that."
The Leaf?
Ida Ayumin is now 11. She left her old clan when she was 6. Feeling alone, and exhausted she is discovered outside the Leaf village. Ida usally doesn't get mad that much, and doesn't seem like she knows of a bad day. That's all false though. Ida has been beaten, forced to murder, and had the lives of her two best friends threatened by the people who were supposed to love her most. That would be part of the reason Ida ran away, and came upon the Leaf. She doesn't regret leaving, but she is grateful for some of the skills she picked up. Becuase of her clan, Ida is great at coming up with war strategies, and she can use pretty much every weapon. Even though, Ida still swore revenge on them. Disadvantages though, is that she isn't really used to being around people, and she doesn't know how most people react when someone is a little...different. So when she does come to be around people, how will she act? Can she seem normal, and get used to people? Or will her past haunt her too much? Will her desire for revenge take over everything? disclaimer- i do not own Naruto or any of the characters beside my own.Complete
trapped ➳ naruto | ✔️
"Don't make this any harder than it has to be, Sakura." I swallowed hard, my body shaking. I can't believe this is actually happening. Who knew that it will actually end up like this? I knew that I have to save Naruto and Sasuke-kun so that we could run away and hide before it's too late. "I-I'm not opening the door." I took a step backwards, looking at the kitchen. There was a knife on the counter, I needed it. If he is going to break inside, I have to fight back in order to get out of here. I quickly get it and face the door once again. I take a deep breath and tighten the grip on the knife's handle. There was one big question that kept running inside my mind over and over again. When will this nightmare end? Sasuke, Sakura and Naruto suddenly found themselves stuck in their own "ideal world"; a world with no chakra, ninjas, wars and just peace, tranquility and happiness. Their loved ones who were once dead are alive and the place they called home is back to normal again. Everything seems perfect, right? Wrong. They soon find out the person who has trapped them in that world is out to kill them. What's worse is that he won't stop at nothing until they're dead and they don't even have chakra to fight back. Will they be able to escape and be safe? Or will they remain trapped forever? Quote of the story (but not in the actual story): "Just like everybody else, you three believe in everything until it's disproved. You believe in old myths, in ghosts, in powerful creatures, etc. It all exists, even if it's just in your minds. So who's to say that dreams and nightmares aren't as real as you and I?" [Warning: May contain some Sasusaku or Narusaku and lots of feels]Complete
The Chain User Nin
*Click* *Clank* *Clunk* *Click* *Clank* *Clunk* Those noise keeps on repeating and eco throughout the room. "You're going to give me what I want one way or another. I'll have to use force if I want to" a dark emotionless voice said from the shadows. "P-Please! Y-You don't understand! I-I c-c-can't rat them out!" The man who was tied with chains and was hanging on the cliff "Is that so? Then you are no longer use of me. I'll have to kill you then" the voice said without a care. The man's eyes widen in fear for his life. He could not believe it! This person used to be gentle and sweet now this person he used to believe and trust is willing to kill him effortlessly. Ho-. How ever the man's thoughts was cut of short when he felt the rushing winds hit him hard of. Tears left his eyes and in mere seconds he was no more. The figure of a girl around 16 stared blankly at the horizons. The fool she just killed was useless to her now so he should die and left rotten for his disobedience but no she had no time on thinking about the fool. She had a goal and she will fulfill it and worrying about someone's death isn't going to help her either. In a flash of yellow she was gone like she wasn't even there in the first place.....Complete

I finished the story recently and I left a lot of cliff hangers or gaps in her past and a ending that isn't ideal. If I revise, I will fix that and probably change the end. However don't expect magnificence from this story. Criticism is greatly appreciated. I didn't create the cover. All rights of Naruto go to the ownerComplete
Bump Buddies: Take Two
This is a complete reworking of my story "Bump Buddies". So if you've read the original, throw out everything you think you know and remember and start anew! Y/N has always struggled to find a family to call her own. Her biological parents abandoned her, her adoptive ones died tragically and her adoptive brothers are both too selfish to give her the time of day. She's good at hiding how hurt it makes her feel, but little does she know one bad decision will lead to the family she's always dreamed of. It's not conventional, it's not ideal, but it sure is entertaining. I love everyone that supported the first story but I'm so embarrassed by it due to how young I was when it was written. Now, 6 years later I want to try again and make it worth your time. So let's enjoy this new adventure together!
The Oldest Nara: Kakashi x Reader
Shikamaru's elder sister, Y/n Nara, disappeared at age 16. As a known friend to Itachi, her whereabouts become a concern for the Leaf Village. Y/n has a clan kekkei genkai that hasn't reappeared in the bloodline since the founder of the Nara clan, making her the strongest of the Nara's and somone the village has high hopes for. Now that she's home, is there someone who can get her to stay? ••• The story ends in a place that makes sense, so I'm pausing updates for awhile. Might come back and add more to it, might not. It's complete enough as is tho:) ••• To explain the ages, Y/n is the same age as Itachi meaning Kakashi is 8 years older and Shikamaru is 5 years younger. Y/n returns to the village at 18, so hopefully that helps with the age difference between her and Kakashi. ••• There are a million Naruto based fanfics, but I had to add my own. I love it too much not to. I'm not watching the anime currently, so the timeline and scenes might not be perfect. But, it'll be close enough and the story will still be good af. As always, I don't own anythinggggg from Naruto. All of it belongs to the legend, Masashi Kishimoto.Complete
Haunted By The Past
Sakura Haruno had heard nothing else but bad rumors and nasty things about her. What did she do wrong? Is there something wrong with this blessed kunoichi? Sasuke Uchiha left Konohagakure. Sakura promised herself that she will get him back, no matter what. She loved him too much to just let go. After exactly two and a half years, Naruto returned from his training. It was about three years when they haven't seen Sasuke. Naruto wasn't the only one who became powerful, but also Sakura. She changed. She was called weak, but now, she will never let them say that again. Never again. But as expected, they couldn't get Sasuke back. No matter what. The past haunts Sakura again. It brings her the memories. Is she still weak? No, yes, maybe? Is the reason why she can't get Sasuke back is because...she's still weak? Weak like before? Like in the past? She's.....haunted by the past. [[Better than it sounds!!!!!!! I freaking suck on writing descriptions. Never really like writing them lol. Anyway, this is probably pointing on SasuSaku, clear? Enjoy.]] The date I started this story: May 16, 2014.Complete
