Prologue: Fate

"It all happened after I met a kunoichi with a special element, Shoton. After I reunited with my friends, my cousin, my twin brother, and Yoji-san from Inyogakure... however, I realized this and everything I saw from a mist. It's because of him I'd never trust."

Yume Yukisaki, a Konoha kunoichi and the Ally of the Byakugan, dodged the bats used by a user. A man wore a purple loose-fitting vest that showed his chest. The rest of his mid-section were covered with bandages. He wore a light blue poncho-like item around his neck and wore black wrist warmers and tan pants with dark brown sandals. He had dark brown hair and black eyes. This shinobi who used bats was Rinji.

The Hyuga clan's ally doesn't show hesitiation, but her white eyes showed a former hatred and determination while evading his bats. Some bats were suddenly crystalized by a Shoton kunoichi. A kunoichi with a light blue hair in a spiky ponytail appeared before Rinji. She wore a green dress with a long left sleeve and a short right one, a red turtle-neck which had a white, fluffy collar and brown gloves. Under the dress, she wore a one piece red suit. She wore calf-length brown sandal boots.

This Shoton user Yume met, of course, her name is Guren. During their battle against Rinji, Rika cried for Yume and Pana comforted her ninja tool kunoichi, embracing her from the painful battle. Yori watched his twin sister with a tall shinobi named Gozu. Of course, he was with Guren before they left Otogakure.

"I wanted to protect everyone, who are important and precious to me. But... after I met Guren... I realized this special feeling. Yes, this white flower... I won't forget this flower all this time. It was Kai-sensei's favorite flower. A white camellia."

A white flower fell on the lake and was crystalized by Guren's Shoton.

"It was like... Guren and I... have someone who is precious to us."
