Well, a cool fanfiction concept could be that some of the Resident Evil villains get transported to the Naruto universe.

Soldiers often carry a sense of guilt for the things they did or didn't do during the war. Additionally, the theme of the relationship between the storyteller and the story is explored.

There are mainly four types of conflict in fiction. Man vs. Man, which is a physical or emotional struggle between characters.

Man vs. Society, when a character fights against the norms and values of society, such as Hester Prynne in 'The Scarlet Letter' who is ostracized by society for her sin. And Man vs. Nature, for instance, in 'The Old Man and the Sea', the fisherman battles the sea and the big fish.
