Let's break it down. Naruto's a reckless young shinobi with passion and heart. Striving to get attention and respect, he has an attitude that makes those around want to shut his loud mouth. Then there's his rival teammate, Sasuke, a boy who keeps himself at distance and makes no personal ties. His one-track vengeful mind and lust for his brother's demise has carried him through a life of hatred and solitude. Along comes the damsel in distress, Sakura, ditzy and unrequitedly in love with our dark, brooding avenger. Her low self-esteem and lack of ninja tact makes her a casualty for her team, and nothing more. Enter their mission - Rayne Sayomi, a carefree individual with the strength that would make a mountain shake. Her personality makes those around instantly like her, though her short temperament can bring out the demon inside. Literally. Together, these four are going to shape the paths they each take in life, but there are about ninety-nine ways to die between them and their future.
