A Japanese soldier writes his final letter home to his wife in Hiroshima, after the atomic bombing of 6 August. In the wake of utter devastation, he imagines his wife still waiting faithfully for his return. He removes his uniform and shuts out everything - the war, the destruction, the ruin, and focuses solely on their reunion. And in death, none of the suffering will ever touch them again.

A C C E P T A N C E by mostlyamanda

Three years have passed since the end of the Fourth Great Shinobi War, but for Ayuka Yuna, it still felt like only yesterday. Nightmares and gruesome memories of the battlefield haunted her mind on a daily basis, forever reminding her of the corpses littering the ground. Over time the incessant thoughts and images were too much, and she became desperate to escape them... by any means necessary. Suigetsu Hozuki had grown closer to Ayuka throughout the war, becoming one of the only people that she felt she could trust. He cared for her, probably more deeply than either of them realized, and he knew that keeping her alert and distracted was the only way she would overcome her own mind. So, after bidding farewell to their former comrades, the duo began traveling in search of the legendary blades of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen as a way of coping. Sasuke Uchiha was revered as a hero across the shinobi world. His name could be heard in whispers and conversations across every village, causing Ayuka to cringe every time it graced her ears. Hearing his name now was only a painful reminder of his abandonment, although she hoped it would not remain that way for long... **This story is incomplete, but I will not be continuing it. Please continue to enjoy it as it was originally written. Thank you all for your kind support and please read my Conversation Posts on my page for more details.** { Sequel to Resistance } { Naruto Fanfiction // Sasuke x OC } { Set a year after 'The Last' plot }

Naruto Various x reader by PiaAmanogawa

This book is on a very long hiatus maybe even discontinued due to circumstances that do not let me access my manga, so from now on I can only write based on episodes that are out. But I do have another one I'm currently writing that will be out soon or already up on my profile. Y/n is from the village hidden under the sun and moon. As long as she can remember she had been hated not that they would show it. Everyone would always make fun of here and call here names but they found out that that was one of the worst things they could have done. Y/n had the ability to erase the existence of the previous gods giving them eternal freedom but some of them found out what true hell felt like in their eternal suffering.

alphabet | servamp tsubaki by UCHITATAS

After the battle on the rooftop, Tsubaki leaves behind his previous life, including his subclass and a girl who loved him too much. Heartbroken, she decided to write letters that will never be sent. Disclaimer: I only own Mao, don't own the other characters. Each chapter will be extremely short- that's the way this whole book will be set out. Lower case intended. (Completed 2017)

LOST AND FOUND IN TOKYO by silentwhisperssays

In Tokyo, where neon lights flickered endlessly and the city never truly slept, a girl stood alone in the rain. Sakura's suitcase was soaked, her clothes clinging to her skin as she stared at the house she once called home. The door had slammed shut behind her, the echoes of her mother's voice still ringing in her ears. "You've ruined enough things already, Sakura. Just leave." She clenched her fists, biting her lip so hard it almost bled. Her sister's wedding had been called off that morning, and as always, the blame had fallen on her. She was unlucky, they said. A walking curse. With nowhere to go, no one to call, she wandered aimlessly until her feet ached. It was hours later, sitting outside a small convenience store, that she met him. A boy with tired eyes and a bag of instant ramen in his hands. And that was where everything changed.

Lost (Saku x Sasu x Neji x Kashi x Obito) by Emmacoco90988

After the War, Sakura is living her life with unexpected love, lust, and pain. Sasuke, Neji, Kakashi?? Though she tries to stay above it all, she feels lost throughout her path, and almost loses herself. Will she find happiness in this new world? *This story is a lemon. Smut throughout, and uncomfortable incidents that can happen to real people. I do not support or encourage this type of living. Please do not read if you are not of age. *I do not take credit for the art work.* I give credit respectfully to the artists that drew the pics.

This was written in 2014, my English was horrible. And I'm too lazy to edit this, too. So yeah. I know there are errors, no need to point them out 50 times lol

The Last by Ice_Kitsune4801

"This is why you are weak, you can't handle anything or do anything right!" What would your thoughts be if those words were the last you'd ever hear from your best-friend? "He has the most beautiful voice, the most beautiful face, the most elegant posture! He is the most beautiful thing that has ever happened to me." What would you do if this is the last things you see of your lover and the last you felt in love? "She's isn't the problem, don't be an idiot. You're just seeking attention." What would you feel if those words were said to you?
