**IMPORTANT** Even if you started reading this, the main character and plot have drastically changed so please start from the beginning!! Judo Strategem travels to Yokohama to visit a close friend. Unbeknownst to them, this trip would lead her into the world of the Armed Detective Agency, Port Mafia, and a new organization(?)

I just own my ideas and my original character. This is a work of fiction and if anything like this happens in real life it's completely coincidental.*

From the beginning, their fates were intertwined. No matter how long they fought, no matter how hard they struggled, it was inevitable that in the end, they would have to rely on each other. No one is without their own fear, no matter how much they might like to believe it. Kazue once believed herself to be strong. To be the sort of person that nothing could break. Experience taught her that she was more fragile than she could have ever imagined. With her sensei absent and one of her teammates on the brink of being torn away from the shinobi world, she's left with the question of how everything became so complicated- and what she can do to change it. As the stability of the shinobi world begins to crumble- however- she's thrown face-to-face with a stunning realization that perhaps she was misguided in thinking the worst thing left to fear was death. In reality, the worst fear never crossed her mind. That the one person who matters more to her than anyone in the world- perhaps even the man who's begun to break through every one of her walls- isn't permanent. No one is immortal in a world on the brink of war. Jun, he may have known that there were far too many things in this world that he feared, but he believed that if he ignored those fears perhaps they'd one day cease to exist. Or at least, he'd hoped. He'd hung everything on this dream. It's ironic how easily a dream can turn into a nightmare. Those fears became non-existent the moment that he ceased to have control over his own body. He's become trapped- his own mind the cage. There is really only one fear that matters now. The fear that before long, he'll completely disappear. Then, Miki. In the wake of the loss of something she'd once feared the existence of, she's left only with the fear a of failure. In her mind, there's only one solution and in order to bring back her daughter, she'll do anything. Three souls- intertwined by fate and circumstance. Not a single one- Fearless.

'How could I have been so blind?' That was the question that demanded attention in Asari Kazue's mind. As time passed and her surroundings continued to shift, that one thing never changed. She never saw the person that she walked outside of Konoha's protective walls to meet again- it was as if he'd become someone else entirely. She'd been too blind, too trusting, too naive- Never again. At the same time, while part of her wishes to escape, the other part is only longing to find that side of him again. Perhaps then, she'd be able to make sense of all of the confusing feelings- the ones that hurt despite the fact that she's a girl who's never known the feeling of pain. *** 'I just want to breath without someone jumping.' Jun's rapidly deteriorating control over the part of himself he once labeled Kurai Jiko has everyone who's aware of the situation leaping to their feet the second the boy does as much as form a hand-sign. It's suffocating. For the boy whose only dream was to be a normal shinobi of the village, his life has all but become a nightmare of his. He'd do anything to escape it. Anything except run from it. *** 'Just for now, let's keep it a secret. The moment everyone knows... everything will change.' The two years that her team was in splinters, Miki found refuge in the one person around her who never changed. When he was nearby, she could breath. She could think without her mind pulling up memories that as far as she knows, can never become reality again.  When he's not around, however, everything comes crashing down. In an attempt to escape this, she's taken more missions in two years than she'd done in her lifetime up till that point. At the same time, a piece of news appears that will change everything- not just her life, but the life of the one person she cares about the most as well. Sometimes, however, change is a good thing- whether one wants to accept it or not.

"You'd be better off staying away." "I said I never would." In the aftermath of a fight that left their mentor dead, a teammate blind, and their emotions scattered, Hisoka, Hikari, and Miki attempt to pick up the pieces of the lives they knew. One of them wishing to find a way to be the person they were, one attempting to stick by the person they love, and the other simply attempting to find a place to belong. There isn't time for them to waste, however. The Chuunin exams are approaching and if they can't make sense of their shattered lives, they won't be facing it together. It leaves the question: Is being together really worth fighting for? **Companion novel to the Senseless series** **Cover by Arctic_Sky**

Her memory starts with him. They were both stained with blood, most of it her own. The ground was hard, the air silent. She couldn't speak a word, yet something in her told her that he wasn't to be trusted. That despite his soothing words and promises of safety, she was better off escaping and finding her own way. But where does one go when the only thing they know is the skills of a shinobi? Against her better judgement, she follows him into a world of secrets and danger, romance and darkness. The world that first threw her mind into darkness. The only world that can bring everything back. Somethings, however, were meant to stay hidden. Somethings are better left in oblivion.
