The Flower Within the Thorns

Tsubaki is a genin of Konoha. She wishes to become a strong kunoichi to protect those dear to her and of the village, but as she moves to go forward the thorns of her clan's past try to ensare her and pull her back in. Will this flower be able to bloom, or will the thorns make her wilt away? And how will a certain blonde knucklehead help determine her fate? Only time will tell.
