Today was unusually good for Miyuki.
She was used to the silence, trapped by her condition as a mute. Her days were often spent inside the four walls of her grandmother's house, with her only hope for sporadic freedom is her frail health. This was her excuse to visit the hospital, and today proved better to go than any other day.
She met a boy.
He was standing under a cherry blossom tree, and unlike anyone she'd ever met before, he understood her without the need for sign language or words. It was a surprise, but not enough to stop her from getting to know a new friend or being grateful for it.
Then there was the book.
It was a journal of some sort, chronicling a romance that dates back from feudal Japan. Inside were entries that narrate a man's great love for a 'spirit maiden' who hasn't spoken one word to him. It was in her silence that her heart was heard.

Sightless Silver
"The world is grey, it's simple, nothing can be trusted. For a child like me, who can I trust in this place with everything trying to take my life? That grey tree, it could fall on me, this grey building I hide in, it could collapse on me. Nothing is bright because everything is grey. People are the greyest of them all. That's how life is when no one can show you color. The two lifeless bodies who once shown brightly to me, they too are now grey. The two who showed me the world with colorful books are now cold and lifeless, blending with the grey. I too, would be joining them, eventually that is. I, who was never colorful, will be going to where color shall show. At least, that's what I hoped for. I saw the colors of the sky, but it was all a ruse of false hope. The world was grey again, and I was stuck drowning in it once again." When a child turns into a girl, the colors show. All it took was being happy with life and enjoying what you had. That was something a child couldn't understand like a girl could. When one who has had nothing gains something, they understand. A girl who lost her two colors in the world, understood why color existed. It wasn't because the world is out for you at all times. It's because the one who is most untrustworthy is yourself. The girl learned after she gained her colors. She couldn't see her colors because she couldn't understand what she was missing. It's not that she was missing anything, it was that she was always concerned about what she was missing. In other words, you can only see color if you can gather the courage to stop doubting why you exist. That's exactly what the girl learned after so long. Years of her own self-loathing curiosity were only holding her back. A child who couldn't understand what anything meant, now a girl who can forget that and start living her own life with her own choices. That's the life of Rizuka Kyoyin, the Sightless Silver. {Mary Sue Warning} ~Book One of the Silver Series~ -Love KimiComplete
Chidori Heart
Sasuke looked forward and gasped. A kunai was coming; full speed. "SASUKE!!" Sasuke closed his eyes. He waited for the impact. He opened his eyes to Sakura making eye contact with him. "Sakura...?" The kunai was in her back. She panted in pain. "Sakura...." He couldn't believe she flash stepped in the path of the kunai and him. She collapsed in his arms. He looked where the kunai hit. It hit her lung, that's all he could tell. "Sasuke we should take her to Tsunade!" Naruto called as he lifted her up. "Sakura stay awake with me.." He whispered to her as her eyes started to roll back. "Sakura please." ------------------------------- [UNDER COMPLETE REWRITE] Original will be kept- but there will be a remake in the work <3 Wrote this back in 2015- needs much loveComplete
The Silver Wolf (A Naruto Fanfiction) (Complete) (Editing In Progress)
~Completed~ This book starts off like your stereotypical sucked-in Naruto fanfiction. Main character has sucky parents (parent- there's only one), and leaves home to explore a forest. She's traveling in this conveniently-placed forest behind her house, and finds a really weird tree. She falls asleep at the base of it and stuff happens. Of course, when she wakes up, she's in the shinobi world. Who would've guessed, right? Not the reader, obviously... But now things get different. She's not anywhere near Konoha, or Suna, or even Kiri! She's in the middle of a random forest, she looks completely different, and she's got new clothes. Oh, and there's an egg in her pocket. The egg hatches into a little dragon, and they wander around the forest together. Until they find a strange cabin, and an even stranger old man. Blah blah blah, stuff happens, and then Orochimaru appears! Along with her long-lost twin brother she didn't even know she had! It's a bit cliche... More stuff, a time skip, a tiny bit of Konoha, a new village, few answers, and finally the main cast appears around chapter 29. Enjoy! ~Editing in Progress~ Cover made by ILoveWolvezz!!Complete![✔ My Last Romance [A SasuSaku Fanfiction]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/27041807-256-k632471.jpg)
