Layered Souls (Naruto)
Aug. 7th, 2006 12:38 pmTITLE: Layered Souls
FANDOM: Naruto
LENGTH/RATING: 100 words, PG
PARING/WARNINGS:: None
SUMMARY: It wasn't as if they hadn't tried... (Set after fox demon attack, prior to episode 1).
The moonlight traced the contours of the sleeping child and she stepped forward, determined. It was easy to forget, if you did your best not to look, that something so small could hold such evil. She brushed back a lock of hair and the child yipped softly in his sleep, nuzzling her hand. In spite of her resolve, she shuddered. It was there. Waiting.
She made her apologies to the Third Hokage and left. She wasn't the first to refuse nor, he feared, the last. Someone had to care for the child that wasn't-- couldn't ever be just a child.
