(1: Emerald Eyes and Black Diamonds)

This fabled night; When dark clouds obscure the serene silver light of the full moon, and dark shadows dance upon the still, unknowing land.

This night, when the malicious demon would be awakened.

The highly guarded village was soundly asleep in the late hour. Signs hung over the doors of usually rowdy shops, and dust was settled on the shadowed streets in the large darkened town. Windows were left open for relief of the scorching heat that bore relentlessly during the bright day, while people inside dreamed contentedly. The village hidden in the leaf had been peaceful long enough for -this… to come as a surprise, even to the powerful Hokage. None were weary of the full moon waning behind the dark mass. The signs had been clear, but it was too late to notice the manifestation in the later stages.

Godaime was the first to sense its power building.

The blond woman woke with a start, sweat forming not from the heat, but from the commanding aura that was beginning to take shape above her village. Throwing off the white sheet she slept with, she rushed to the window and glanced at the sky. Brown eyes glittered with discord.

"This isn't right" she breathed, resting her shaking palm on the window sill. A memory of an emerald eyed figure unexpectedly flashed in her mind's eye.

Lightly touching the blue diamond on her forehead in remembrance of a similar black diamond, she suddenly turned to the window and clapped her hands together to make the sign of summoning.

In a puff of white smoke, one black bird appeared outside her high window and flew off to achieve its given objective.

Tsunade ran her slender fingers through her light-colored bangs and sighed. Between her fingers she could see the sky once more, a chill running down her spine at the implications of a full moon, hidden.
