Ever since Sakura could remember, she wanted to become a ninja.

The excitement of learning jutsus, the power from your very own chakra to having your very own summons - the feelings of belonging to a team and working under a powerful sensei whilst serving your loyalty to your village - the list was endless.

She knew, however, she wasn't anything special.

She wasn't born into a clan with a dojutsū.

Or with a special kekkegenkai.

But this didn't stop her, only helped ignite the will of the shinobi that would be one of the greatest.

This is the story of Sakura Haruno.

A known Shinobi of the hidden leaf.

The unlikely child prodigy.

Who befriends the unlikeliest of allies, and finds love in a certain lazy ninja.
