Leaf District

- Start date
A sea of quietness hushed over the Leaf District, resulting in the creation of an harmonic overture that engulfed the entire continent. This newly profound shared value of peace reduced the crime rate by a staggering rate. The Leaf District like many others were losing profits by not protecting protecting smaller counties Eventually the smaller counties subsided and was annexed by larger nations thus creating what we all know today as Districts. The Leaf District had lost funding needing to redirect their military funds into hospitable operations, hoping to make back profits by selling 'peace'. The thought of such sponsorship left a strong distaste. The catastrophic actions of the old world brought birth to a dramatically different world for shinobi. This world embodied the definition of a utopia. This world was meant to let shinobi die out, and this had not sat idle in Suzaku's heart. The kanji that symbolized peace was immediately pitted against the hottest flames known to shinobi. Man was despicable, an unworthy species that had not utilized their natural born right of chakra. Man sat idle, developed trades, skills, and acquired an education to create nothing but normalities. Shinobi was an advance form of evolution, and to Suzaku they were the new norm. Suzaku had not acquired the title as Hokage, to continue to expanding world peace. The title as Hokage, meant he was the strongest in District, this position was a testament to his strength.
Concerns of the future of shinobi spread like wildfire. The thought of their very existence had been a mutual feeling within each shinobi. This led to the creation of a formal union. Ninja representatives (Kages) from every District discussed and assigned missions. The Union also provided changes on how teams and organizations were formed, both integrating members from different villages to work under the same Umbrella. While Districts participated in the Union, they were hesitant to share their secrets, weaponry, and jutsu. They only offered up their strength in numbers, to ensure a steady flow of work. The Grass District had become the Unions center meeting place, supporting all Union related questions, organized missions, teams, and where all academy students resided.
"Hmph" A sigh melted in the air. The rock beneath the glowing fragmented man became hotter every few minutes. The intense bodily heat that Suzaku emitted was unbearable amongst the working class people, this innate ability only had an off switch when visiting the populated public. The inactive man had slothful attitude due to lack of work that he needed to complete. Suzuaku also avoided reading status updates on the effectiveness of behavioral health programs and how it's reducing recidivism, this only supported the claim that ninjutsu was not needed to fix the world's problems.
The thoughts that lingered in his head sounded reasonable and was just to protect the livelihood for shinobi, but he knew it could give off the wrong impression. As self centered as those thought Suzaku was, he was very aware of how others viewed him and depending who, he did it purposely. With no global threat, it was the Kages job to mold and create one. "If we reminded humans how much they needed shinobi, we could retrieve more military funding. We could create a stronger generation of shinobi. We can install the power of hardwork and not depend on technology..." Suzaku played around with the sales pitch in his head, but everything he said he knew would be perceived wrong; so he sat quietly on the Hokage monument staring blankly into the sky.

INVADING FORCE FROM THE SHADOWS - What's going on!?
A sudden and unexpected invasion shook the Earth as a group of rogue beings emerged from the shadows, snatching people into the realm of darkness within seconds. The invasion was beyond comprehension, as it seemed to come from a realm beyond that of the Earth's inhabitants. The threat was palpable, and those sensitive to hostile emotions could feel it coming from all around them. In a blink of an eye, around 2,000 individuals had gone missing, leaving behind an eerie silence and confusion.
Questions arise regarding the fate of those who have been taken into the shadow realm. What happened to them? Are they still alive, or have they been lost forever? The fear and uncertainty surrounding the invasion linger as authorities and experts scramble to unravel the mystery and find a way to bring back the missing individuals. The suddenness and magnitude of the event have left a profound impact on those affected, and the shadow of the rogue beings continues to loom over them. As the search for the missing individuals intensifies, reports of strange occurrences begin to surface. Some claim to have seen glimpses of the rogue beings lurking in the shadows, while others report feeling a strange pull towards the shadow realm. Panic and paranoia spread as people struggle to come to terms with the events that have transpired. The shadow of the rogue beings continues to cast a dark cloud over the planet. The invasion has left a permanent scar on the collective psyche of humanity, a reminder that the universe is vast and mysterious, and there are things beyond our understanding lurking in the shadows.
".........." A person spies on those who may have taken notice of the sudden disappearances; whether one could respond to it accordingly. Her presence was imperceptible as she remains observant within the shadows.

INVADING FORCE FROM THE SHADOWS - What's going on!?
The world of shinobi was thrown into turmoil as shadows emerged from the darkness, launching relentless attacks on shinobi across various villages. These shadow assailants possessed an eerie and unknown power, leaving the shinobi community bewildered and on high alert. As the Mizukage and the skilled Mist shinobi celebrated their hard-fought victory against the shadow soldiers, their triumph was short-lived.
Reports of encounters with the shadow attackers began pouring in from different corners of the shinobi world. Shinobi from different villages exchanged information and pooled their resources to understand and combat this enigmatic threat, but all stories came to have no resolution on how to defeat the enemies.
In a devastating turn of events, the shadows swiftly reemerged, taking on a new form that defied comprehension. Instead of physical humanoid figures, they transformed into flat, 2-dimensional shapes, intertwining their chakra with the shadows cast by each person present.
This unexpected metamorphosis granted the shadow assailants complete control over the minds and bodies of their targets. With this newfound power, they sought to manipulate and dominate the very essence of their adversaries.
The momentary relief that filled the air turned into a tense battle for control as the shinobi realized the dire situation they were facing. The shadows' ability to manipulate thoughts and actions posed an unprecedented challenge.
As the shadows continued their relentless onslaught, the dire situation escalated further. A population of 30,000 people worldwide became the target of the shadows' relentless tactics, plunging the world into a state of fear and uncertainty.
The first wave of attacks struck with precision, targeting 2,000 individuals across the globe. Shockingly effective, the shadows managed to capture and transport 1,800 of their victims into the shadow world. With each successful abduction, the number of people remaining on Earth dwindled to 28,200.
However, the shadows were far from finished. The second wave of attacks brought a new and insidious method of infiltration. In this wave, approximately 13,000 people, including both shinobi and ordinary individuals, fell victim to the shadow's malevolent control.
The situation grew increasingly desperate as the shadows tightened their grip on the possessed. The only known way to sever the shadow's influence was to eliminate those who had been overtaken, but the method or means to accomplish this remained shrouded in uncertainty. The ethical implications of taking lives, even to save others, weighed heavily on the hearts and minds of the remaining unpossessed individuals.
The world was thrust into a struggle for survival as the shadows' numbers continued to swell, and the captured individuals became tools of the enemy. Shinobi and ordinary people alike faced the grim reality that the lives of the possessed were seemingly forfeit if they were to have any hope of breaking free from the shadow's control.
