A notice about Rule 3 regarding sites hosting pirated/unauthorized content has been made. Please see here for details.
Staff is working to deal with the problem of synonymous tags. See here for more information and to suggest tag mergers.
QQ will shortly be reconfiguring its site domains. You may need to log in again. See here for details.
Due to issues with external spam filters, QQ is currently unable to send any mail to Microsoft E-mail addresses. This includes any account at live.com, hotmail.com or msn.com.
Signing up to the forum with one of these addresses will result in your verification E-mail never arriving. For best results, please use a different E-mail provider for your QQ address.
For prospective new members, a word of warning: don't use common names like Dennis, Simon, or Kenny if you decide to create an account. Spammers have used them all before you and gotten those names flagged in the anti-spam databases. Your account registration will be rejected because of it.
Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.

Sakura woke with a forearm across her sternum and the weight of an entire other person pinning her right shoulder to the ground sheet.
For three seconds, in the small disoriented space before her brain clicked, she thought...

Chapter 25—On the Road
---———---<<O>>---———---

The wind came up across the grass behind Sakura and went on past her toward the fence. The grass moved in a long pale wave. She held still until the wave had gone by, then she tucked the strand of pink behind her ear and...

Kakashi caught the boy's wrist and flung him into the canopy hard enough that Sasuke turned into a blur. His one visible eye crinkled, and he exploded after the boy in a pressure-heavy thud.
Around them, the trees...

Training Ground Three was empty when Sakura arrived.
Dawn was still settling over the grass, and a thin mist clung to the base of the three stumps at the center of the glade. They were thicker than people and...

Kakashi paused in the corridor of the Academy with his book in one hand and listened.
It was quiet.
Three twelve-year-olds in a classroom should not be this quiet.
He slid the door open and stepped through...

Chapter 20—Team Seven
---———---<<O>>---———---
He had made it.
Eighty shinobi were arranged across the floor—a total of fifteen jōnin and sixty-five tokubetsu, the latter of which he was a part of.
Four years of D-rank cat-recovery. Two years of guarding the gate...

Hinata found Naruko on the swing.
The courtyard had mostly emptied, the last of their classmates drifting out through the gate with their new forehead protectors bright in the afternoon sun. Hinata stood under...

Chapter 18—Graduation Day
---———---<<O>>---———---
Mikoto had been up since six. Not because she needed to be, but because the rice cooker was old and moody, and the tamagoyaki had to be rolled while it was still warm.
By the time the sun came over the building...

"Your ribbon is crooked."
"It isn't, mom."
"Sakura."
Sakura came back to the genkan and let her mother's hands work at the knot.
Mebuki smoothed the red band across Sakura's short hair that was cropped just...
