Episode 0: The Beginning.
The scene cuts to a five-year-old girl, and this is what she looked like. She had unruly white hair, like snow, and bright blue eyes like jewels, slightly obscured by her tousled bangs. She wore a light gray T-shirt, a matching skirt, and black ballet flats. The girl’s name was Yuki, and she was walking with two masked men. Yuki: Uncle, could you carry me? I’m a little tired. (asked him.) Man #2: (He looks at her sternly, but it’s hard to tell what emotion he’s expressing through the mask) Don’t do that. It looks weird. (He asked her.) Hearing this, Yuki’s smile vanished and she let go of her hands, her bright blue eyes turning sad. Yuki: (whispering) Okay. They continued on their way, making no attempt to cheer up the five-year-old girl, as if they didn’t care about her. Some time later. The two men found themselves at the door of the Third Hokage’s office. The man who was holding Yuki quickly but carefully lowered her to the floor and knocked on the door. A moment later they heard a voice say, “Come in,” and all three joined in. At the table sat an elderly man in a monk’s robe — the Third Hokage. Next to him stood a young man with dark brown hair tied in a ponytail and a scar on his nose — Iruka Umino. The Third Hokage placed several important papers in the box and looked first at the five-year-old girl and then at the two men. Hokage-sama: (calmly) So, you’ve brought her. Now leave us alone with our new guest. (he requested) Man #1 and #2: (simultaneously) Yes, sir! (they said, leaving the office) When the two men left, Yuki looked first at the closed door, then at Hokage-sama, and then at Iruka. Her gaze held a hint of sadness, mingled with confusion. Iruka noticed this, walked over to her, and crouched down to be level with her. Iruka: (smiles) Hello, are you Yuki? (addressing her) Yuki looked at Iruka again and saw a friendly expression on his face. A slight blush appeared on her cheeks—both from embarrassment and from him standing so close. Yuki: (She turned away.) Yes. So, you’ll be… my new… dad? (She said this a little hesitantly.) When she said this, Iruka looked surprised, and Hokage-sama chuckled. Hokage-sama: (explaining.) No, your father isn’t Iruka, but Kakashi Hatake, and you’ll meet soon. The five-year-old girl blushed and looked down. Yuki: (stuttering) S-sorry… I was a little… m-mistakable. Iruka looked at her understandingly and patted her head. Iruka: Don’t worry. (He said this to her and stood up, then looked at Hokage-sama.) Can I go with her? (He asks him, and he nods.) Outside. Iruka and Yuki appear on the screen, walking down the road to Iruka’s house. He glanced at Yuki, who was looking around with childish curiosity. Iruka: (Thinking) She looks so much like him, a perfect copy, only a girl. (He paused for thought and smiled softly.) He suddenly lifts her into his arms, and she gasps in surprise, her eyes wide. Iruka: (Looking at her) Yuki, you’ll be staying with me first, and a little later with your new father. (He explained to her.) Yuki: (smiles) I understand. She wanted to hug Iruka around the neck to feel more comfortable in his arms, but suddenly Yuki remembered the words of one of the masked men. She quickly changed her mind and sat calmly in his arms, without making any unnecessary movements, and this also brought a feeling of sadness to her. Iruka expected her to hug him around the neck, like children her age, but Yuki didn’t, which surprised Iruka. He also noticed that she was sad. Iruka: Are you comfortable? You can… (he was interrupted) Yuki: (whispers and turns away) I’m comfortable. (The whisper sounds sad. Iruka remained silent, but a flicker of worry flashed in his gaze. Iruka’s House. In this scene, they arrive at the scene, and Iruka lays Yuki down on the floor. Yuki: (Nods.) Yes. Some time later—night. Iruka carefully approached the sleeping Yuki lying on the couch. His eyes widened when he noticed she was hugging herself, tears streaming down her cheeks, sobbing in her sleep. Iruka: (thoughtfully) She had a nightmare. (Worry and pity flickered in his gaze.) He reached out and stroked her head to soothe her. A minute later, a smile appeared on Yuki’s face, and she stopped crying. Iruka: (to himself) Poor thing. (he thought and left the living room.) But when he left, Yuki burst into tears again, sobbing softly. Continued in episode 1.Chapter 1

Notes:
I hope you recognize me. My name is Charlie Noceda, and I've written fanfiction about Miori Uzumiki Uchiha (Naruto and Sasuke's adopted daughter?) and Mary Uzumaki (Naruto's twin sister).
And also, on Wattpad, about Snejana Smith (Lucia Noceda's best friend).
And on fanfiction.net, I wrote about Lina Uzumaki (Naruto's missing sister), Diana Crevan (Undertaker and Yana Toboso's daughter), and so on.
But fanfiction.net recently stopped working for me, so I decided to register again and write fanfiction there.
