Human Sacrifices (джен)

They were just children when the decisions were made for them. How were they supposed to know about the way the world worked? The politics, the brutality, the ambiguity, and the subtexts of it all. At such a young age and at the cost of losing family members, spouses and even friends. Why were they forced to bear the brunt of becoming human sacrifices, weapons used to deter the enemy, jinchuuriki?
It's too late now. There's no point in debating who's in the right or who's in the wrong. It's up to Naruto and Gaara to gather all those who share the same pain they do, and potentially put an end to the age of the village system as we know it.
