[Mikoto's Diary]
[Day 1]
My name is Mikoto and I'm 10 years old, my mother gave me a diary so I can write down everything that has happened, although I don't understand why I would want something like that. I guess I'm just going to do it when I'm bored.
[Day 10]
I'm starting to find fun in writing what I've been doing these days, especially the fun things I've been doing at my school with my friends.
[Day 14]
Today together with my classmates, we went to the aquarium to see the fish, there were some big ones and some small ones, some were cute with lots of colors and some were ugly, Maya-chan got splashed by one and we all laughed at her.
[Day 30]
Today I heard my mom crying, so I went to see what was going on and when I went over to ask what was going on, she yelled at me telling me not to go and that everything was fine, but I still can't get it out of my head because she was crying.
[Day 54]
Today I heard my parents arguing, only to then hear things breaking so I went to see what was going on. I screamed when I saw how dad was hitting mom, but he got mad at me and started hitting me along with her.
*Sob*
[Day 68]
Today was the last day of school and my mom came to pick me up. Dad wasn't around, but that made me happy because now I'm scared of dad.
[Day 70]
Mom told me that we were leaving our house and going to live with my grandmother. She is a good grandma, she always welcomes us with a smile and gives me money to buy sweets. I love my grandma, she is the best!
[Day 120]
Dad has been coming around a lot lately, although he leaves quickly when Mom threatens to call the police on him.
[Day 140]
Today is the first day of school at my new school and my classmates are nice.
I am writing this at my school because I brought my diary.
Mom told me we were going to a movie today, that's why I'm excited.
* * * * *
Mikoto was returning home as she was doing some little jumping full of happiness because she could finally spend some time with her mother, who had been most of the time working.
"I wonder what movie we'll go to see" - wondered the black-haired girl as she walked with a smile, but stopped when she saw how a group of policemen was blocking her way - "?"
"I'm sorry girl, but you can't pass this place" - said the policeman while looking at the girl.
"But my house is just a few meters away!" - Mikoto exclaimed in annoyance as the policemen looked at each other in dissatisfaction.
"Little girl" - said a female cop - "Where do you live?"
"In a nearby blue-roofed house" - replied the little girl innocently.
". . ." - the policemen were silent as they sighed with regret.
"What's going on?" - Said a senior policeman.
"Captain! We have a problem" - said the female policewoman.
"?" - the captain frowned, but understood when he noticed the little girl - "Tell me it's not what I think it is."
"I'm sorry of telling you that you are right" - said the female police with regret - "She is the daughter and the granddaughter of the victims"
"Victims? What is that?" - Mikoto asked curiously as the policemen gave her an uncomfortable look.
"Little girl" - said the captain as he got to his full height - "Do you have any family in the area?"
"No, Mom and Grandma are the only family I have around here" - Mikoto said as she tilted her head in confusion - "Dad comes around once in a while, but he only yells things at Mom"
The policemen frowned when they heard this.
"Do you know where your dad lives?" - The captain asked with a friendly smile.
"I think in our old house" - replied Mikoto as she c.o.c.ked her head to one side.
"Can you lead us to that place?" - The policeman asked.
"I have to ask mom's permission first" - said Mikoto innocently - "I can't go with you without asking her permission first."
"Your mom is... sleeping right now" - said the captain with a pained expression invading his face - "She's not going to answer you for now"
"Come on little girl, tell us where your daddy lives" - said the policewoman with a big smile.
Mikoto nodded as she got into the police car along with the woman and the captain.
"Poor girl" - muttered one of the remaining policemen - "She is the same age as my daughter".
"I still don't understand how there can be people like that bastard" - said the other policeman coldly.
* * *
The policemen arrived at Mikoto's old house and entered without a second thought. They would not allow the alleged culprit to escape, since according to the evidence they had managed to get hold of, he was the most likely culprit in the death of two women.
"Let go of me! You can't enter a private house without a warrant!" - One man exclaimed angrily as he was f.o.r.c.i.b.l.y dragged out of the house.
"I'd rather be in trouble a thousand times than let bastards like you go free" - said the captain as he pulled the man regardless of his complaints.
"Dad!" - Mikoto exclaimed excitedly.
"It's all your fault, you little bitch!" - roared the man angrily.
"!" - Mikoto flinched back as she heard the man's insults.
"Sir, I found a bloody T-shirt in the trash" - said the policewoman - "We can send it to the lab to check our suspicions."
"You are very brave when you yell at a child or a woman" - said the captain as he looked at the man with disgust - "Let's see how you do in jail because I heard that bastards like you get a good service."
"Dad" - said Mikoto as she cried, only to be hugged by the policewoman.
* * * * *
[Day 150]
The policemen told me the bad news that daddy had killed mom, and since I had no family to take care of me, as my parents were only children and my grandparents were dead, there was no choice but to send me to an orphanage.
Mom, Grandma... (pages stained with tears)
[Day 152]
Two days have passed since I was sent to an orphanage. The caretakers are kind, just like the other children, but it still hurts to know that I won't be able to see mom anymore.
[Day 153]
Today is adoption day, although I honestly don't care much. I don't think anyone will choose me, as I'm too big, and I don't think I want to go to another family either.
* * * * *
"That's all of them, what do you think, Mr. and Mrs. Uzumaki?" - The attendant asked with a big smile as she looked at the couple in front of her.
They were the most beautiful couple she had ever seen. The woman had red hair along with a model's body accompanied by large b.r.e.a.s.ts and h.i.p.s, while the man had white hair, different colored eyes, and a physique that seemed to be made by the gods.
"Are you sure that's all of them?" - The man asked as he looked at the woman.
"W-Well, there is one more girl, but she has been through some very hard times" - said the woman with a slight blush as she heard the man's voice.
"We'd like to see her" - said the red-haired woman with a smile.
"Ok" - nodded the attendant as she walked in the direction where the girl was - "Mikoto".
"Coming" - said the girl as she opened the door, only to be surprised to see the couple standing in front of her.
For some strange reason, she felt like she knew them and could trust them - "Y-Yes?"
"Honey, they are a couple who have come to adopt" - said the caretaker with surprise as she noticed the change in the girl's expression.
"Hello, little girl" - smiled the man - "My name is Kurama Uzumaki and this is my wife, Kushina Uzumaki, and I want to adopt you. Would you like to come with us?"
"I-I? Come with you?" - The girl asked in surprise as she felt her heart pounding at the sight of the man - "S-Sure!"
The attendant was surprised because she never thought the little girl would respond so quickly.
"Perfect! From today, your name will be Mikoto Uzumaki" - Kurama smiled as he took the little girl - "What do you think?"
"Mikoto... Uzumaki..." - murmured the little girl as tears ran down her cheeks for a strange reason.
"Come on, let's do the papers" - smiled Kushina as she carefully took the little girl's hand.
"Ok" - nodded the manager as the 4 of them walked towards her office.

It had been 7 years since Mikoto had been adopted and she was again taking her diary that she hadn't taken in all these years to read it carefully, only to feel tears running down her cheeks.
These years had been the best for her. The Uzumaki were kind and loving, and even though so many years had passed, they still looked the same as if nothing had happened.
She had changed and was now a beautiful and s.e.xy woman, though something had her feeling a little awkward, and that was the reason she had picked up her diary again.
"Day 154" - murmured the girl as she wrote with a slight blush on her cheeks - "Today I took my diary after 7 years. A lot of fun things have happened with my new family, although there is something that troubles me. Is it normal to have feelings for your stepfather?"
"Mikoto-chan ~! Come ~!" - Kushina exclaimed from the kitchen - "Remember today is your 18th birthday ~!"
"Coming, Kushina-san!" - exclaimed Mikoto as she took one last look at her diary and went back to writing - "Mom, I just want to tell you that I'm the happiest girl in the world with this new family and I promise I'll never forget you and Grandma!"
"Mikoto-chan ~!" - Kushina shouted again.
"I'm coming!" - Mikoto exclaimed as she put the diary back on the desk - "Wish me luck, mom, grandma!"
