Prologue

“How could this have happened? How could all life as we know it cease to exist? How did all of us come to the state we are in now? We would have never of let this happen if Tsunade had not allowed herself to be killed so easily. The state of war we are in right now, and the status of the Shinobi world, is nothing short of horrible and scarred. Buildings have been shown to be knocked down, the younger children have gone into hiding, and what have we done? We've stood and we are going to do the only thing we can do. We are at a very young age, and we've always had guidance from those who are older than us to help. Kakashi, one of the many men who risked his life to defend us, will not however, be at our side. He, as well as Tsunade, Jiraiya, and even Ebisu, were casualties we did not expect in this war. Many of the other Jounin, such as Anko, Asuma, and Kurenai are still with us, but will it be enough? I trust in Neji and Shikamaru with the cells they lead, yet sometimes it is just not enough. Can we be saved from something that very well may end us all? Can it all end, happily ever after? There is only one thing left to us… us, the ones who “inherited the will of Fire” at a young age. We, the shinobi of Konohagakure no Sato, and very well the last hope of peace there is in the world. We are shinobi, as well as Kunoichi. And we are going to do the only thing we believe we can. We are going to stand…and fight!” ~ Uzumaki Naruto
