Deep in the Uwajima Mountains lies a small village named Konoha. It was founded centuries ago by the Uchiha clan. It remained as a small, isolated village but a few other clans migrated to the village because of the rich source of farming land. Many of the villagers have never even left the village because everything they needed was available to them inside Konoha's walls. But the main reason why people do not wander beyond Konoha is because of a dark legend that took place around Konoha. A hundred years ago on the night of a full moon, there was a festival to celebrate the coming of the new season. Everyone gathered in the center of the village to celebrate. There was drinking and laughter and everyone was happy but while they were enjoying themselves a demon fox had wandered into the village looking for something to eat. It slaughtered a quarter of the village before fleeing into the forest. The only reason it hid away in the forest is because the Uchiha clan has a special bloodline limit that only they can inherit called Sharingan. Their crimson colored eyes have the ability to control demons and especially suppress the demon fox's thirst for human blood. They named the monster Kyuubi, because it was said to have nine tails. Each year before a full moon a group of family members from the Uchiha clan hike out into the forest to scare the demon fox deeper into the forest. The trip out into the forest is approaching fast and the village is preparing. Only men and certain boys from the clan are chosen to come on the trip. Boys that are believed to be coming of age take the hike to unlock the powers of Sharingan. "Please be silent, we will now announce the names of the young Uchiha's who we believe are ready to leave the village," announced a clan elder. Many of the boys looked nervous, and a few determined to prove their strength and courage. "Atsuo, Hiro, Genji…" As the names were announced the boys walked up to the elders and thanked them. There were many excited faces and cheers. Some of the young village girls watched on to see who got chosen. Many mothers always said to marry one of the Uchiha's that could use Sharingan so that they could always be protected from harm. "Kenji, Ryoma, Sasuke…" As Sasuke's name was called he stood up, unsurprised that he was chosen. He was born from the direct line of Uchiha descendants which meant that he could defiantly awaken the Sharingan. He quickly thanked the elders and returned to his spot where he was sitting. One of the elders cleared his throat. "Now that you know who has been be prepared to leave tomorrow morning. Say goodbye to your all your close family members. This is not to be taken lightly; this trip could cost your life. I seen the fox with my own eyes, there is no doubt that it is real. I expect everyone who is going to be at the gates by 6am tomorrow. That is all." Sasuke got up and started heading towards his family. 'I don't know why the old man is so worried about everyone taking this seriously; the fox hasn't been seen in 15 years,' he was irritated by this thought. He looked back for a moment to see Sakura bounding towards him. "Sasuke-kun! I heard you were chosen." He smiled slightly at Sakura although he was annoyed by her presence. "Uh yeah, we leave tomorrow morning." Sakura looked up at him with wide green eyes. "I can't believe it that's so soon." "Yeah, I have to prepare tonight," Sasuke replied. As he was about to turn away Sakura clutched his arm. "Just be careful okay, you have to come back alive." He almost laughed under his breath. "Sakura, everything will be fine, it's been 15 years." At that he walked away and Sakura was left standing there with a distressed look on her face. He felt a little bad that Sakura was so worried about him but he knew that he could handle it. He wasn't afraid of a demon fox and besides that he knew that he could awaken the sharingan anytime now.
The next morning they had all assembled at the gates. A few had brought katana swords and others brought a bow and arrow. Sasuke really wondered just how dangerous the fox was going to be, if they even saw it. "You ready Sasuke," asked his older brother Itachi. Itachi and Sasuke looked much alike, and acted quite similar. "Yeah," replied Sasuke. "Okay just don't start crying if anything happens," Itachi smirked as he said this. Sasuke rolled his eyes and shifted his feet. 'He's such a douche,' he thought. "More likely that'll be-." Sasuke was cut of by a whistle coming from the front of the gathering. The clan elder, Fukasumo began explaining the trip. "We will be climbing the Izuro pass for most of the day and then we will travel the northern Kigashi pass. Once we cross the bridge up there, there's no turning back so be prepared. Watch you surroundings and do not stray from the company or else you will be lost forever in these woods. We are leaving with 10 boys in our group but we are coming back with 10 men. This trip will be a life changing experience as you will unlock the powers of the Sharingan. We begin now!" The onlooking villagers were cheering and mothers were hugging their son's goodbye. Sasuke held his own mother before he left. He turned to stare up at the looming mountains before him. 'I want to meet this damn fox,' and with that thought he and the other 19 members of the crew began their journey.
