Description
I won't look away. I won't give up. I am fighting for you.
- Uzumaki Naruto (NARUTO manga, Chapter 231)

Two and a half years go by, and his heart does not waver; turning sadness into kindness, uncertainty into hope. It only grows stronger with his spirit, his skill, and his firm grasp on that promise - a wish he vowed to fulfill.
(Please forgive my cheese. I can't help it when it comes to Naruto.)

NOTE: The sky is real, but I edited the color because it was originally grayish. It looked pretty cool on its own, but our bright outfits and hair made us look like we were just superimposed on the image. And this better suits the mood we were hoping to depict.
