Summary
She doesn't care much for the way teenagers stumble around life like they just popped out their mother's womb on hooves and amniotic fluid snorting out their nostrils. This includes herself. She despises being a teenager, especially when it's happened twice.
(Someone dies and is plucked out the soul toilet on the flush to Hell. Being aware of this also happens to be a part of her, frankly impractical, quirk. She should start a cult. Second coming of Christ? No, this is the second coming of Nimori Asaka, and she'll bring Armageddon armed with thumb tacks and ringed knuckles if she has to.)

Summary
She's on the edges of the village again, staring into dark, empty eyes. Sakura won't let it be the same this time.
Sakura dies cold and starved in the Fourth Shinobi World War, abandoned by her teammates in Kaguya's winter dimension. She wakes up again, propelled to the moment when she was meant to fight Sasuke on the bridge—before everything irrevocably changes, and she's suddenly in the past, standing behind her younger self, reliving the most pivotal moment in her life.
The day Sasuke left.
(Haruno Sakura is a martyr in war. She decides to enact her vengeance by changing all that she couldn't before.)

Summary
“...Victor.” he declares then, gesturing towards himself with a breathless, delirious smile. “Victor…” he says one more time, smiling like a fool when he sees his creation mimic his movements, and then the smallest drop of hope lands like honey on his tongue when he hears his own name repeated in a halting, broken voice, confused like a child’s and filled with the same sort of wonder.
“Vic… tor…” his creation murmurs as he gestures to himself, and while Victor’s truly elated for that small show of basic intelligence, he also knows that it’s best not to create unnecessary confusion.
“Ah, no, it’s-” he tries once more with an awkward laugh, before gesturing to himself again. “Me, I am Victor.” he says patiently and with great care, observing how his creation blinks with puzzlement, before twisting his hands and placing them atop a smooth, cool chest. “And you…” he then adds with a lopsided, sardonic grin, because there’s truly only one oblivious choice to be made here. “Your name… is Adam.”
(The day when his creation comes to life, Victor remembers that he’s also his mother’s son.)

Summary
Sakura is twelve when she queues up in front of a desk with a bunch of other equally-terrified looking shinobi. The ages range from younger than her to old enough to be her grandpa.
The man sitting at the desk is stony-faced as he doles out assignments. Sakura obediently shuffles forward when it is her turn, and recites her shinobi identification number in a shaky voice when asked.
When the provost marshal looks at her, looks down at his paper, looks back at her, and grimaces, Sakura knows it’s not going to be good.
