Welcome to Gaia! ::

Him stood outside of the KuroKage mansion, infront of three unknown warriors. Hes dressed in the robes of he KuroKage. "Long time no see, Top Three. I'm back, and its time to put the plan into motion. Mithos is being weakened by the tournament. He even summoned me in a desperate effort!" The three shadows chuckle, along with Him. "But My Lord, I expected you to assemble us tomorrow. Why so early?" the first shadow asked. "Yeah! Thats right Shinei! Boss was scheduled to call us tomorrow!" the second exclaimed. The third one remained silent. "True, I meant to call you tomorrow. However, I realized that if we have no recon, then it is foolish. I need you, Zeo, to enter Hidden Gaia Village and scout it out. While you are there, deliver this scroll." Him hands the thrid shadow a black scroll. The third shadow bows, and disappears in a puff of smoke. "We will ready the Weapon, My Lord." The other two bow and disappear into smoke. Him smiles darkly, then turns and enters his mansion.

Zeo appears again in front of Him. "Did you meet with the Teikage?" Zeo shook his head. Him sighed. Zeo pulled out a map and gave it to Him. He opened it and exclaimed, "Impressive! Your skills have yet to show any errors. An entire map of Hidden Gaia Village. Did any stop you?" Zeo smiled and shook his head. Him grinned.

Zeo appeared behind the two in the KuroKage office. He walked past them and placed a stack of papers on Him's desk. Him picked up the papers and began flipping through them. "Every shinobi has his abilities on record with the Teikage. Kept in the Book of the Shinobi. I'm glad you could steal me a copy, Zeo. Your opinion?" Zeo looked down, then looked at Him. "Weak..." he siad in a low tone. Him smiled. "Oh really? Interesting, I saw some strong Shinobi there, Like Joic and Sophonax, and especially Kai. They're all strong. However, its the perfect time based on this. Occording to the records, Joic is out of town, and Sophonax is still in the Tournament. The other shinobi barely show an ounce of backbone, and so that leaves us with possiblities. Haruma, Shinei, Zeo, soon, we will go to victory, unchallenged, and establish ourselves as the rulers of Hidden Gaia Village!"

Loud snarls and roars are heard throughout the village. Currently, the Science Research Deaprtment in the village is placing large seals on a pair of huge brass doors. Many rushing to try and barricade it shut, hoping to restrain what lies on the other side. Across the doors is a banner that reads:

A nin jumps down from the wall and lands next to Ed. "Former Teikage...what brings you to our humble village?"

"Leave quickly. Before-" Just as the nin was finishing, a loud, gut renching roar emintaed across the village. The gates to cell 81462 cracked, then bursted open from a large burst of black fire. A large Lizard like creature, at least 30 ft tall, trudged out of the rubble. It had long black claws, metal plating all on its body, and a large metal box attached to its back. Its eyes were black, its scales were green, and it had long yellow teeth. It let out another roar and began heading south for Hidden Gaia Village.
