Well here is the prologue, if you are a person who really likes to know what is going on and such you should read it, no Naruto characters have shown up yet so yeah lol.

Disclamier: My only disclamier cause if you don't know who made Naruto you aren't a true fan!

Japanese Key:

Ankokujidai - The Dark Ages
Shinobi - Ninja
Jigai - Suicide
Kokuei - Dark shadow, silhouette
Kunoichi - Female Ninja


It began 3 years ago, the world went into a state of chaos; of course we named it Ankokujidai go figure, villages had been attacked, the world literally expanded, the philosophers didn't understand what was happening, ten new forests had suddenly appeared all over the world and each one unleashing completely new species, there have been rumors of new islands as well but they haven't been recorded...yet.

These monsters wreaked havoc on everything they saw as a threat, they were intelligent some not so much, but worst of all was the fact the Shinobi who were the protectors of the villages had to adapt to a new way of fighting, the stench's some of the creatures gave off were horrendous, the sight was not one to behold, they were the ugliest creatures and largest creatures you could ever lay your eyes on, many Shinobi have died because of ill preparation for battle, a group of these monsters could come into a village and wipe it out within an hour.

There are now underground cities and only a certain group goes out for supplies they are specialized in defeating these monsters we call them the Jigai, they even call themselves that, for it truly is suicidal to go out for mere food and have to fight off these terrifying monsters.

I had been a Jigai once…I was a protected by my fellows so I hadn't seen battle for they believed a Kunoichi should not have to do such things, but the first creature I saw was my last, I had wandered off into the tenth most dangerous forest at least that is what the scrolls said, I still remember the forest's name it was The Forest of Kokuei, a dark place indeed it was.

A forest of swords is what my team called it.

We had to go inside the border of the forest and if you my friends ever become a Jigai you will know never to go deep into the forest for you will be killed I have no doubt of that. The forest's plants were alive, I am living proof of this…for I had been pulled in deep as we were almost out of the damned place, the vines dug into my right leg and I was pulled for I do not know how long but when I stopped and dangled as if I were a fish about to be swallowed whole I saw the plant no…monster, its head if you would like to call it was the size of a house, the body even bigger. When it opened its mouth I saw row after row of teeth, the farther back they got the smaller yet…every single one was similar to a shark tooth, I panicked and could do nothing but wait for it to eat me alive.

Yet it never came, the sound I thought I would hear as my bones were crushed under its many teeth, the screams I would bellow, the last thought I would have before my death, it did not come but instead I fell.

I had gone unconscious for the first time in my life and awoke in my room, as you know at that time I had been one of the many people to live underground although when I tried to get up I could not for half of my left leg was gone, I learned afterward that the creature had let go due to the vine holding me being cut but there were many other vines and it grabbed on after I had fallen out of its grasp but took half my leg as my saviors protected me…I could not be a Jigai any longer nor did I want to be one.

Children, adults, Shinobi, anyone reading this scroll…please know that the world has changed and there is nothing we can do to stop it but survive, the last thing I can say is that as this happens there are people who have learned to control the monsters, you may think of this as good but it is not, these people are horrible, I've never seen one of them but I've heard stories from my old comrades. I can't say any more for my time is limited, I am the medic of the city and it seems the Jigai have found others from villages that had been destroyed, we get many newcomers because of how close we are to villages all I can leave you with is to be careful and trust no stranger.

Emiko.
