Ari was my very first character created for the very first RPG community I participated in. It was a Naruto RPG set about 9 years after the start of the manga. Team 7 had all grown up and into their own areas, so Kakashi no longer had students. Ari was going to be one of the new three academy pupils chosen as his new team, serving mainly as a source of comic relief. The Kakashi player and I had become good friends, and we'd created and planned on a bond between them, but sadly, members began losing interest and the RPG died, along with all of my original characters--Ari having always been my favorite.

This was made during a fit of creativity that also came upon the anticipation of the RPG dying. No one will probably ever really understand it except that Kakashi player and I, so maybe in a way it also stands as a signature of our friendship. I spent a lot of time and effort on it however, so I'm placing it here in my deviations--even despite having lost the energy to create a background for it some time ago. Oh well.

The sentimental value may not be able to come across, but maybe just perhaps you can still enjoy the style of it.
