   Summary

   Sakura manages to stab Obito's Rinnegan when asked, sending the course of the war into a new kind of chaos that prevents Madara from casting the Infinite Tsukuyomi. Everyone's fate depends upon Sakura's game of cat-and-mouse with Madara, bolstered by a movement of people who rise to support his cause. With the damaged Rinnegan being her curse and her key, Sakura is forced to push herself and her unexpected new allies past their limits. Can she stop it all from ending in Madara's favour?

   Mischief and mayhem posted every other Tuesday.
