Together, they fight to swim above all the power-hungry sharks and even darker creatures that lurk below them. Luckily, he managed to stumble across a kindred spirit along the way. When secrets come to life and old pasts are dragged out unwillingly, Naruto struggles to stay above the waves that crush him. That saying proved true when intuition became truth, stringing together a disgusting picture. Sadly, no one can stay hidden forever, no matter how much they wanted to. With how he was secreted away with a mask of lies displayed on his face, always close to those who should be able to see him for what he is, not for what he isn’t, it was a miracle he managed to hide for so long. Naruto welcomed its dark embrace, finding safety hidden behind a veil of lies, just as much as he hated it for having to result to hiding in it. No, they prowled as if on the hunt, hungry to devour anything in its path. He knew what it was though and it was no song. Shadows danced all around him, twirling this way and that as if to gain his attention in a silent song.
