Once upon a time, long ago, it was said that demons and gods walked the land alongside humans. It was, according to some accounts, a golden age where man respected the gods and demons alike, and they uplifted man, fought for them, defended them.
No one would say why that long ago golden age ended, only that it did. It ended in fire.
From the ashes, man rose with the art and power of Chakra.
As was the nature of humanity, conflict arose as clans formed with their specialties.
Thus did the warring ages begin.
This was something you had learned as a child... stories told, stories learned. And yet... something in you disagreed with it. Refused it as something said in error.
And there was the matter of the dreams.
You dreamed [remembered] [
BURNING], your will and soul raging ever stronger, [
feeding] on itself to burn ever higher. From that power came that familiar surge, that feeling of immortality. Of invincibility.
You could not be stopped.
Your will spoke loudly to the world, and the world knelt in submission to your might.
But the illusion of your ascendency is shattered by a single pulse.
You could feel coldness moving up your arms and legs, even as the fire in your heart gutted out from the shock of that blow...
Darkness crept up on you, the world faded into darkness.
And you slipped...
Into
darkness...
Nothingness...
But even in the darkness, a glimmer of your
inner spark still
burned. Hoarding its last embers of its strength.
Not even death would stop you.
No.
You would endure...
But even the least of flames can gutter out.
Without fuel. Without [
stimulation].
And.
There was nothing but darkness.
You are one with the darkness. The darkness is all that exists.
And it is you. You are it. And thus. You are the world.
...
...
...
An endless eternity later... there was the sound of chimes. Metal against metal ringing in patterns that beckoned you. Called to you.
And you woke up with a yawn, the sun rising in the distant east.
You could feel stickiness on your eyelids that you rubbed away with a hand. The ringing echoed in your head and your mouth tasted like something horrible had crapped in it and then died to rot. Perhaps, it hadn't been the best of ideas to stay up late to study
You stumbled out of bed, wincing at the cold floor. You had to be awake now.
This was the big day, and you were NOT going to be late for your genin exam. You had heard the horror stories of the students who had been late, who had failed and so on... and you were NOT going to be one of those students that the younger grades would talk about. No, thank you.
You stumble into your home's washroom and start your morning absolution; making sure that your long and luxurious pink hair was immaculate, that you didn't have any bags under your sparkling green eyes.
Perfect.
You slip into your customary outfit and dashed off to the academy, a steamed bun with meat in your mouth as you ran. Your mother had left breakfast for you on the table, your father was off at work at his warehouse.
You had an exam to be at, and you were going to ace it like everything else you did.
