Blood & Circumstance

Only weeks after the Uchiha Clan Massacre, another massacre takes place, mostly kept quiet and swept under the rug. They don't particularly want people getting the wrong impression of Konoha, and it's quite easy to keep it under wraps. After all, the Haruno Clan is predominately civilian – nothing more than a small blip on the sensory radar of a shinobi. AU. Gen. Slowburn.
