The lighting of a flaming flower, lit only a bit of the room with only one being invisible. He was only refer as storm shadow, his real name became his shame. Once a student for the arashikage clan, now became a enemy to it old clan. He is haunted of his clan for many years. His only reason for his existence was to be a tool for cobra. He does not care, he does not matter. He must serve this purpose even if it torture him to his limit. His years of cobra is battling his brother, snake eyes but His enemy's that he view as no brother but strangers are quick kick and spirit.

Meditation, he is doing is the only way for his relaxation of his free time. He can only eat and sleep and that it. His sense of peace were always calm but this time, it different, for he sense great danger. Danger which does not involve his purpose or anything. This sense was so terrible that he woke up from his meditation, sweating, and jump up with the candle lifting wore off.

This was his terrible fear. His family in the past has met many friends throughout history. Most of the family relatives and friends are dead except for one. He sense of a family, the last family that carry storm shadow relatives blood, has the descendants of two young ones. He does not know whom they are but for some reason, he felt a connection to them like part of the family. Storm shadow knew what he must do. He must find them, and adopt them, so he could train new arashikage members for the future. He would not have to suffer under the disappointment of the arashikage clans. The only problem is there location. He sense they are in japan but where are they now, and what danger is it.

Storm shadow walk toward a switch to turn on the light. The room was all white with only a bed, and Japanese arts. He was in one of cobra palace that was located on a small island in the Pacific Ocean.

He was interested of this sense. He now has a purpose for the clan but how can he find them.

Storm shadow always prefer to work alone but in this situation that involves a group, he must find someone that is willing to help him. He cannot get help from snake eyes, due to his disappointment of him in cobra la. He need someone, but he also need more information of his mission. He must know what danger is at ahead.

He turn off the light, lit the candle, and sat down to meditate. He kept doing this for a hour until finally, he sense something. It became a little clearer for he see a group in school, pulling off a paper figure. He then sense them falling to a abyss, a abyss fill with dark past. Now he know what the danger. He got up, blow the candle away, put on his sword, and walk away from his room. The base was fill with cobra styles and everything that is related to cobra. He find this quite annoying but his sense of annoyance of everything was gone ( except cross country ) he focus on order and command. He walk to a throne room which hold cobra commander.

Cobra commander see storm shadow and started to greet him.

"Greeting, storm shadow" cobra commander greet "I see your ninja activity has bin a lot easier than last week".

"Cobra commander, I am here to ask for a request" storm shadow ask.

"A request?" cobra commander confused said "why, since your first day of job here, you never have any request".

"Yes, but this request is urgent" storm shadow said "I have sense a great danger in one of my family relatives that I never heard of".

"What are you heading from?".

Storm shadow know this is a bad idea to ask this to cobra commander but since he already know that the other cobra members won't understand. He best option is cobra commander, since he always cool with him for his duty.

"I need you to come with me on a quest" storm shadow said "a quest to save my lost relatives, so I can train them to become the new generation of the arashikage"

Cobra commander remain silent. Storm shadow thought this was a bad idea, he knew he shouldn't ask this to cobra commander. When he thought he going to be yelled at, cobra commander said "where are they?"

"They are at japan but I fear they are now in another world"

"Hmmm, another world, and new arashikage" cobra commander mumble "if I find this new world, I can control it and use it as a torture world for the capture joes or..."

Storm shadow wait for a word to come out of cobra commander until.

"Seem interesting, why it will benefit this organization with your ideas".

"So you are willing to cooperate with my request?"

"Of coarse" cobra commander said, walking toward storm shadow "if we find that world, we could not only have new cobra members but also a new aspect of us from japan. Think about how the Japanese citizens will view us when we save those children's. Not only that, i can also take over a dimension for myself".

Storm shadow was glad but was not sure of cobra commander plan. Then again, he doesn't really care of cobra commander scheme, as long he join him.

"Sssssoooo when do we ssstart?" cobra commander ask.
