   My Naruto O.C (Saraha)
Before I post any art of her, I want to give you a little background story. (If you want the whole story it's on my Livejournal account - sarahykins)
She has long black hair and green eyes, and she has this bloodline ability. I haven't decided for the name yet, I need to find out what illusion is in japanese, but basically, she can form her chakra into blades that can act as a shield or an attack. I want it to be illusion because it's the illusion of the blades being made out of metal.
We know very little about her past, all we know is her parents died in a war when she was too young to remember, and she was homeless and wandered through forests after that. She came across someone called Ichigo, who was another tramp, who had managed to grow himself his own strawberry farm. He decided to look after her, and let her stay with him.
She only found out about her bloodline ability when Ichigo was attacked by a wolf - she ran at the wolf with all her fury and emotions, which unlocked her talents.
There were hints at them having feelings for each other, but Saraha was too young to understand and Ichigo told himself that having such feelings for someone so young was wrong.
When training, she accidentally caught him with some of her blades and tragically, he died. He told her to be a strong ninja, the strong ninja that he could never become.
She refused to believe he was dead and carried him around the forest for days, crying and talking to him as if he was still alive. She gave up, and exhausted, curled up in a clearing with the intent to die, hoping that either the starvation or the fact she might catch pneumonia might kill her.
No such luck. Hatake Kakashi had a day off and was wandering the forests when he found her, and even though she was covered in blood he took her back to Konoha.
With the strong determination of becoming a good ninja for Ichigo, she became an amzing ninja - she barely stopped training for an instant. To her teammates (Sasuke and Naruto) she seemed a perfectly happy girl - Kakashi decided not to tell anyone how he'd found her.
All this was fine, until it came to the anniversary of his death. Unknown to anyone else, she snuck off, and went to his grave for several days. She spent the time talking to him, having imaginery conversations with him, pretending that he was still alive.
The smiles were fake, she hid her self-hatred under all her seemingly happy personality. Not even Kakashi could tell.
In the end, when she came back, she had to tell them where she'd gone. She told them it was a grave of someone special to her, but refused to say much else.

Theres alot more to the story, and there's confusing sub-stories as well that I tend to dip into. That's the basic outline, and the story just generally follows the Naruto plot. For those observant ones out there, Sakura is not in there, nor are most of the naruto characters, but they do have roles in the story, just not very big ones. Even Sakura, who I don't particurlarly like.
