Prologue: The Beginning

The five council members looked at their leader, wondering what he was doing.

"I have reviewed over and over again, the ninja worthy of our event. Something we haven't done before." He said.

"Are you sure we should reveal our village's existence?" one of the council member asked.

"I know this is what we must do. I have been told that we must gater the strongest ninja we can find. We must use their power." He replied

"Yes so, we will gather our strongest ninja as well?" another member asked.

"Yes, also, you two," he said as he pointed at two of the nearby messengers, "send my message to the village hidden in the leaf and the village hidden in the sand. I am told there are very powerful and worthy ninja there."

"Yes, sir." They said at the same time.

"Now, let's prepare. Our ninja our elite, they cannot be stopped, as we may have few, they are all powerful, but who to choose?"

"What is it?" Guy asked Kakashi as he stared at the scroll lying in front of them.

"I'm not sure," Kakashi relied, "I'll check the scroll for any possible traps." He pulled his band from around his left eye and revealed his sharingan. After a moment, he pulled his head band back over his eye.

"Well?" Guy asked.

"It's clear." Kakashi replied as he pulled the tab sealing the scroll off. The scroll un-rolled and Kakashi began to read it. After he read it, he noticed a small piece of paper attached to the scroll on the lower left corner showing a list of names.

"What does it say?" Guy asked.

Kakashi took the list and handed the scroll to Guy. After Guy read it, his smile faded and he took on a look of surprise.

"You don't look surprised Kakashi." Guy said.

"Oh, believe me I am," Kakashi said, "especially at this." He motioned towards the list and handed the small piece of paper to Guy.

"What do these ninja want? Who are they?"

"I don't know, I have never heard of this village before. We need to find out though." Kakashi then headed towards the door, and opened it.

"Lord Hokage!" the messenger outside said, shocked as he saw Kakashi standing there. He has obviously been trying to eavesdrop.

"I need you to go and bring me the people whose names' are on this list." Kakashi said as he handed the list to the messenger.

"Yes, Lord Hokage. I'll get on it right away." And with that, he was gone.

"Do you think they'll agree?" Guy asked as Kakashi re-shut the door.

"You know the answer as well as I do." Kakshi said.

"Right, I guess we wait than."
