An Old sloop slipt through the murky waters of a place which had not seen visitors in a long time. Ahead of the boat was "Meikumo Shima" or "Dark Cloud Island" named for the dark storm clouds which seemed to permanently hang above the island, making even the day dark and forbidding. The island was quite large but there were signs that it once had been even larger. It was completely desolate, dark and grey, not a plant grew on the island and instead it was decorated by craters and other signs of great battles that had taken place, oh so long ago. The Crew was nervous, the captain had a great desire to turn away from this "cursed" island but a greater fear kept him on the course, a man had boarded the ship not long ago and forced them on this route. But now the fear of the island was slowly growing stronger, and anyone could see why it was such a feared place, not only was the waters so dark that you constantly expected mosnters to break the surface, but there were also many "real" dangers, the water here was always uncalm and the waves made it hard to navigate, not to mention the countless reefs which treacherously hid in the dark water* It didn't take long before the boat reached the shore however, there was an old harbor which mysteriously enough, still seemed intact. At the end of the harbor there was a small boathouse from which a light glowed into the dark, something which upset the sailors even more to the point that the captain, with a nervous expression and tone asked that the "guest" get off the ship while the crew still had nerves to "stick around" |

| Shigai watched as the island got closer and closer he had read about this and had learned something from his own family scroll this was home to the enemy clan that had once lived here but it seemed that the Blood wars of old had taken their toll on the island, it was strange to see a light on alive it meant someone lived on the island he had no knowledge of the Clan apart from a terrible Kekkei Genkai or clan jutsu which would make roads of darkness appear and sallow anything and everything that got in its way. Shigai heard the captain tell him to get off and the crew tell him to stay, he smirked at them all scared maybe he should had tagged them all with cruse seals and made them 100% obeying it didn't matter he knew his bearings from here anyway, he could also summon a snake to take him back to the snake realm. Shigai leapy off the boat and landed on the dock he started walking around looking at the place and how much of a battle had taken place here, he moved towards the light and wondered if an old enemy lie behind the door or would the forgive and forget. Shigai reached the door he pulled down his hood and knocked on it hoping for an answer rather then a Kunai to the back. |

| *There was a sound of something human and a crash as something hit the floor. Feet stamped across rotten wood and soon he stood face to face with a elderly man, his face was leathery and filled with folds and scars and other signs of a long life, he was wearing a grey poor-mans outfit that hugged close to his frail body. He would look to be near death had it not been for his eyes, a pair of grey orbs that seemed to burn with eternal life. The old man looked shocked at Shigai and it seemed to take the man a few moments to realize what was standing before him, but then his eyes narrowed and he spoke with a contrastingly strong voice, however his apparent age showed its signs in his way of speaking and tone* Old Man: Your late! Delivery in 15 minutes you say? Puh! More like 200 years! Forget about the money, I ain't paying for some damn aged food. *The door slammed in his face* |

| Shigai stood their silently as he watched the door get slammed in his face wow and to think i was scared i was going to get a kunai to the back... he knocked again and waited for the Old man he was wondering if he should activate his eyes or not he wondered if the old man would react well to that though. "I am not a Delivery Boy" Shigai spoke out so the old man could hear him. |

| "So you are the owner of this island..... do you know about its past?......" Shigai lingered with his thoughts as he turned to scan the island looking at all the battle scars it had taken over the years and how it still looked scary and terrifying to others to come here even if it did look old and wore out. |

| Shigais Eyes widened it is true he is an enemy of the pasted i wonder should i tell him? would he attack? Shigai stood outside the door still he knocked again he needed to know what happened after they wiped out his clan. He then mouthed the word he was about to say slow as if shocked the old man was alive. "Kuramoshi" |

| *There was a long silence, then after a while the door clicked and the old man once stood face to face with him* I don't know what your after kid, but you'd be better of leaving this place.. *The old man looked at him now like he knew his very nature, the very word Shigai had spoken had woken something within the man, or had it said something about Shigai that made him react like this? In any case, the man that stood before him no longer sounded like a crazy senile old hermit.* |

| Shigai Stared at the Old man he was complete different now he had found something, that clicked with him something that made him at this way now to change him. "The Past... it what i am after... i need to know Why...." he stared at the Old man unmoving hardly blinking if anybody was here to see them it would seem as if they were about to fight. |

| Kid, again I don't know what your after, but trust me, there has been number of men, great and lowly that has come this way and asked me the same questions.. They never leave with a smile.. Those that even leave that is. So I suggest you take your little boat over there *Pointing at the boat already half-way out at sea* And leave. |

| Shigai finally broke out of his dazed state, this old man knew and he was going to find out. "I never planned to leave with a smile, i never brought one with me in the first place, i need to know about the pasted and that is all i ask for i will not leave until i know." Shigai stared at the Old man anger and determined to find out about the Clan that was meant to have wiped out his own and he would no rest until he found out. |

| *The old man looked at him for a while, maybe hoping for him to change his mind, however after a while it was apparant that he gave up, his shoulders sank and he sighed in surrender* Alright.. Alright.. Wait a moment.. *He turned and went back into the house, closing the door behind him. 2 minutes later he reappeared, now dressed with a bit more clothing and a large straw-hat, but more noticably, a large metal staff which had various ornate inscriptions riddled over it which almost seemed to glow in the dark* This way kid, and keep close to me, you don't want to get lost around here. *A Strange statement for such a barren island, he turned and started walking away from the shore and deeper into the island, motioning for Shigai to follow* |
| Memories are the materials of a Soul, it is what makes and defines you. And as such, blood is the currency of the soul, the silver plate of the will. (Work in progress) |
| Shigai followed the Old man and studded him at the same time he looks like a monk of some kind.... he followed closely as he scanned the area once more it was hard to believe this place had once been a normal island with grass and plants now just emptiness filled the land. "How old are you...." |
| [center]"Gentlemen, all I ask for is war. A war so grand as to make Hell itself tremble. Gentlemen, I ask you as fellow brothers in arms, what is it you really want?

| How old? *The man said almost suprised to have been asked* Ehh.. I can't remember, once you live past a century or two you kinda forget all about time, days, weeks, time just keep going faster and faster and soon a month feels like a minute and then trying to keep track of time just becomes a mess, no, I have no idea how old I am. *Now it became apparent why the old man had asked Shigai to stay close, for now, just a stone-throw from the shore they were covered in a strange miasma that made it impossible to see more than a few meters ahead at a time, strange for the land had looked clear from the outside, but in here.. The air felt thick and there was a pungent smell of rotten corpses hanging in the air* |
| Memories are the materials of a Soul, it is what makes and defines you. And as such, blood is the currency of the soul, the silver plate of the will. (Work in progress) |
| "I see...." Shigai looked around or tried to it was like a mist of some kind or something the smell would be unbearable for most people but Shigai was able to ignore it to a point he had been grave robbing so he was able to. "What is this stuff?.." |

| ...Beats me.. I know its dangerous, that's all, seems to keep things like it was back then.. You might see some ghosts and things like that, but don't go hooting at me for it, everyone who goes here sees something but not nessicarly the same as everyone else.. And for god sake don't decide following anything ok? Unless you want to contribute to the smell. *As they ventured deeper into the Miasma, Shigai could swear that he heard sounds, voices, sounds of battle, suffering, great suffering. Dark shapes would pop up here and there and disappear and the activity just kept increasing the deeper they went* |
| Memories are the materials of a Soul, it is what makes and defines you. And as such, blood is the currency of the soul, the silver plate of the will. (Work in progress) |
| "Noted....." Shigai continued to follow the Old man it seemed like it was some type of fog the would keep the past traped in it as he could see and hear sounds of battle everything getting stronger as they went deeper what a creepy place indeed.... he continued to follow the old man. |

*They traveled without speaking for the rest of the journey, at times the old man would stop and start waving frantically with his staff, muttering angry words before continuing deeper into the miasma. But then eventually the miasma got weaker, or so it seemed, for the air became easier to breath and the view distance became longer with every step. After a while, as if he broke through a tinted window, before him in a clearing free of Miasma, stood an enormous mansion which must be large enough to hold a small army and still make it comfortable and "spacy". But the most striking about it, was that it looked like it was in full use, the windows were clean, the walls were in perfect condition, the gardens surrounding the place had flowers in full bloom. Maybe with the exception of a few places in need of paint, the mansion definitely looked far from the ruin it was supposed to be.* And here we are.. Kuromachii Mansion. *The old man stopped at the border of the Miasma and did not take a step further into the warm welcoming embrace of the mansions garden* |
| Memories are the materials of a Soul, it is what makes and defines you. And as such, blood is the currency of the soul, the silver plate of the will. (Work in progress) |
| "Did you do all this...." Shigai refereed to the mansion and how well it looked. it was like they had stepped into another dimension or even back in time to when it was new and the Clan war and Blood war hadn't happened Shigai gazed at the plant life in disbelief as he looked up towards the sky he wondered was it before of the stranger fog or was it because someone still lived here?... |

| Me? No.. I am just an old man left with an even older Island, I am.. Kind of like a caretaker? Yes, something like that, but I don't "care" for this place, only show snotty kids like you around when they come asking questions.. Definitely have nothing to do with the fog, as I told you, I have no idea. However I do know this.. I am not taking another step closer to that building, no deamon in the world could make enter that cursed place *His eyes almost bulged as he said those words and he slowly seemed to back away from the building, as if he was afraid it hear him and unleash some sort of wrath upon him* Kid I am not playing around or being an old fart when I say this, turn around! There is no shame, the place looks comfy alright but dammit there is a reason why I live in a rotten shack instead of this.. "palace". *His words were serious but they felt ridiculous in the peaceful atmosphere that surrounded them. However, it was obvious that the man was not comfortable with this place, he had started shaking slightly and was constantly twitching in the opposite direction* |

| "What will i find if i enter.... " He scanned the mansion for an entrance in which he would be able to enter in through, he knelt down to feel the grass as if searching for answers within the very begin of the land itself "What would you do if i told you i am the last survivor of the Jenetikku Touzoku Clan..." Shigai turned his head to face the old man as he waited for a response. |

| Id say your a dirty lier.. and in there..? God knows what you will find, but trust me in this, it won't be good.. Dark memories.. Dark things, if there is such a thing as evil, then that place is it! Your young.. You got a future ahead of you! Why throw that all away risking this place? Coooome.. *A Hollow Voice pierced into Shigais mind, it was a weak sound and he almost missed the meaning of it and it came only once, but for certain the sound came from the direction of the mansion* |
| Memories are the materials of a Soul, it is what makes and defines you. And as such, blood is the currency of the soul, the silver plate of the will. (Work in progress) |
| Shigais Eyes flashed for a seconds the Death eyes skull showing, when he heard the vocie or was it a sound, it was something a beckoning feeling placed in him he had to press on he must enter. "Thank you for taking me this far i don't know how long i will be or if i will return but thank you" Shigai was shocked at his own words but the need to move on made him stand and start walking towards the mansion he would find out what he had forgotten his pasted and why he couldn't remember between River and Kiri. |

| There goes another one.. *the old man said quietly to himself before he raised his voice and shouted* Remember! Don't follow any ghost or nonsense! and for godsake don't listen to the voices! Get in and get out got it!? Good luck! *Not waiting for a response, the old man melded into the Miasma and was gone* _____________________________________________ (Ok this is kinda like an event.. Ill give you choices that you must take as you make your way through the mansion, like ill describe two doors, and you must enter one of them, and then ill post what happens in the next) As Shigai gets closer he notice a hatch lodged right next to the wall of the great building, probably leading to some kind of cellar. Right before him are the steps leading to the main entrance, a fine thick wooden gate that looks like he will need to use some force to open. Not far from the main entrance there was another door, much smaller and frail.* |
| Memories are the materials of a Soul, it is what makes and defines you. And as such, blood is the currency of the soul, the silver plate of the will. (Work in progress) |
| Shigai walked right up to the front gate he created 2 Shadow clones and pushed on the gate forcing it open once it was open the Shadow clones dispelled and Shigai Entered he was going for the direct approach and he would walk through everything and anything to find the answers. "Here we go...." |

| *Shigai stood at the beginning of a great entrance hall, two great staircases dominated the room, leading up to the second floor. On the ground floor which he found himself standing in, there were three doors, one on etch side of him and one directly ahead of him, on the second floor there were two doors, one to the left and right. In the center of the room a statue made of some kind of black stone. It was a tall man with piercing eyes and a long hair that fell around the formal dress he was wearing. It had one of its hands stretched out towards the entrance where Shigai stood, in its hand there was a single candle, his face looked proud and watchful and the mastery of the craftsmanship that had made it, made it look almost alive, the slight smirk in the statues facial expression was enough to send some more weaker souls scrambling for the door. What migth get some others was the eerie silence, belive or not, the sounds of rooten wood would be calming compared to the utter silence that dominated this room, but worse was maybe the feeling.. The feeling that the silence would very quickly be broken, but where or when was unknown.* (Choices: 1. Up - Right Door 2. Up - Left Door 3. Left Door 4. Right Door 5. Central Door 7. Investigate the room. going to post these if there are alot of choices.. If you remain in a room, crazy shit might happen.) |

| Shigai made a clicking sound with his tongue sucking it from the roof of his mouth down to the bottom of his jaw as he scanned the room eerie room with creepy ass statue and 5 doors hmmmm i guess going forward should all ways work right?.... Shigai walked forward toward the Central door he passed by the Statue as he did he bowed. "Evening Sir" and kept walking once he reached the door he opened it and went through. (Lol tempting tempting but Shigai is in search of answers and seen as the room only has a statue he would keep moving) |

| (I was really Fing tempted to make the statue respond there >.>) Shigai now found himself in a dining hall.. A GRAND dining hall, for oh my god it was large, the long table that dominated the center part of the room could probably seat atleast a hundred people in total, there was other tables too, smaller of course, but many, spread all across the room. He could easily imagine a fourth of Kirigakure feast in this hall. At the end of the room there was a throne of sort, it was situated at the end of the longest "main table" a large black chair with various ornate designs and furs covering its luxurious surface* On the walls hang giant hand painted pictures, most were pictures of meanligess landscapes but some had people in it, mostly men and women with black or white hair doing things that seemed meaningless to Shigai, nothing to really take note of. However, at the end of the room. Covering the wall there, was an enormous pictured painted onto the wall itself. On the picture three men stood side by side. In contrast to the pale people on the other pictures, these men had tan skin and colorful hair, one even sporting a bright blue color. The one in the middle he recognized as the statue in the entrance hall. He again, held a candle in his right arm, while the two others held their arms across their chests, with their heads bowed slightly in respect* However what really grabbed Shigais attention was not the three men but what painted behind them. There was a village, a village burning, a river that flowed next to it was red with blood and the skies themselves seemed to have taken on a red hue. There was something more on the painting, something he thought he recognised but could not really see from this distance. Looking away from the picture there were two ways out of the room other than the door he had just taken, wait.. three actualy, one was situated very close to him, obviously leading to a kitchen judging by a sign over the door. Further along there was two more doors on the left and the right, ( Kitchen Door Right Door Left Door Investigate Painting ) |

| Shigai clicked again this time the echo was louder and longer then before he stared at the painting at the end of the hall he had to see it up and close, so he started walking down the hall to the picture at the end his foot sets echoing as he took each and ever step once he reached the painting he studied it hard and long. "What is this....." (Lol i know right had the statue say Evening back XD would have been funny as well hell) |

| (Yeah it would have, but in the end this is not a haunted hause.. Well atleast not in the traditional Boohooo kind of way) *Shigai studied the picture until he found what he was looking for, a small man painted as if far away, was falling down from the roof of a house, he was burning but what drew Shigais eyes was the flag that the man dropped. Even fully ignited, he could make out what must be his Clans old symbol ornating the falling flag.* Patriarch! *Shigai turned around as a sudden militaristic voice shattered the silence of the room. An man had come through the door to his left and was walking up towards the throne. He was wearing a ornate silver armor and was carrying a beautiful helmet of the matching metal under his right arm. He carried himself with pride but urgency and his face seemed heavy, as if he was carrying a heavy burden upon his shoulders, the mans long white hair flowing through the air as he made his way across the great room. Nothing would give it away for being a illusion if had not been for how the sound of the mans voice seemed oddly distorted and how every now and then, the man would phase out like a bad hologram.* ????: Grimoire! why do you disturb me? *He could hear the sound of this "patriarch" but he could not see him. The armored man named Grimoire knelled before the throne* Grim: Patriarch, I bring urgent news from the front! The enemy forces have breached the southern perimeter.. they have taken control of the watchtower sir. Patriarch: What!? How could that be, Koishii would never retreat! Grim: About your son.. Kuragari-sama.. Kuragari: No.. Grim: I am so sorry.. *The form of the armored knight fades out and the room is once again silent* |

| Shigai watched as they fade he turned back to the painting running his fingers over the Symbol of his clan on fire he then turned and left going out the left door of the room he opened it and walked through into the next room, But not before looking back to the painting and the throne it seems the fog stuff has its effects on the mansion as well i must be careful not to get lost... he turned and entered the next room.

| (Actualy showed you some real important stuff tho >.>) *Shigai now found himself in a hallway that went in both directions. There were alot of doors but somehow most of them felt meaningless and not worth his time. There was however a door at the bottom of the hallway that seemed interesting and in the other direction there was a staircase that lead to the second floor* |

| Shigai walked slowly down towards the bottom of the hall he would search upstairs later for now he would cover the ground floor it seemed that if he was to truely understand this place he would have to watch for the ghosts of the pasted they seemed to hold some sort of key, but the old man had warned him to to follow them, but it was hard to resist, the need to know was far to great. He reached the door and looked back towards the hallway he was looking to see if anymore ghosts would appear to show him more, he then opened the door and stepped through. (From what i gathered the second clan head One of Meis sons lost his Son in battle and they lost the watch tower so i would say that image was a part of the Blood wars age =p) |

| (Judging by how it was a noble that was involved and that the meeting took place in the actual mansion, its probably in the last stages of mansions time under siege, so yes bloodwars) Shigai walked into a gallery, here there were more pictures on the walls but they held no relevance to him untill he walked past a picture of two children, something stopped him there and made him look at it. It was a girl with skin and hair as white as the snow, and a boy which hair was utterly black. They were both smiling and holdings hands, above them stood the patriarch Kuragari, his strict features and dark blue hair watching over them like a demanding eagle. There was something odd about the picture he could not entirely grasp.. At the end of the gallery was another door* (Chooices Investigate the gallery further Exit to the next room) |

| Shigai studied the galley looking for any painting that could be linked to his past he also studied the man that stood above the two child they way he looked at them reminded him of his father after his mothers death it made him feel some kind of resentment towards the man and an understanding towards the Children. (I Figured) |
| [center]"Gentlemen, all I ask for is war. A war so grand as to make Hell itself tremble. Gentlemen, I ask you as fellow brothers in arms, what is it you really want? Do you wish for further war as I do? Do you wish for a merciless, bloody war? A war whose fury is built with iron, and lightning, and fire? Do you ask for war to sweep in like a tempest, leaving not even ravens to scavenge from this Earth?!" - The Major. |
| *A dark aura filled the room and once again he was hearing voices. A young boy was following after an older man as they both rushed through the gallery with quick determined steps. At first it was hard to make them out but soon it became apparent that it was the young Kuragari and the one which he had seen on the first painting and the statue, Mei.* Kuragari: But father! Should we not consider this for a moment, we have not had real contact with them since we broke communications years ago! Our spies has already shown us that they are no threat to us anymore! *The larger man broke his stride and turned around to look right into the eyes of his son* Do you think I spent all my life working towards this goal just to abandon it now!? The Touzoku Clan are hiding something, I know it! We must strike now before they can make their move! *He turned around and marched out of the gallery. Kuragari was left standing in the gallery with a fallen expression til he eventualy faded out and Shigai was once again left alone* |

| Shigai continued on into the next room it seems that he should wait awhile in each room to see if any pasted images come to life an explain a bit of the pasted it seemed that the Old leader was still around he was rumored to have disappeared between the destruction of his clan and the Blood wars it was still unclear what had happened to him. Shigai walked to the next door and opened it and walked through. (Is the Shadow lord Mei oooo or is he Kuragari i hope to find out) |

| *Another corridor with a number of uninteresting doors most likely leading to personal quarters of some kind. There are however three things of interest, at the end of the corridor the room squares out and is filled with a circular staircase. Next to the staricase is a door leading up the west wall of the building and thirdly a door not so far from him, which also was a living quarter but somehow it attracted him* |

| Shigai turned and went for the living Quarters it was strange that it seemed to call for him he opened the door and went in, he figured that living quarters where 1 way in and out so after searching the room he would then keep heading down the corridor and through the door near the staircase once he was done in the room. |

| *The room seemed simple but luxurious with little in terms of "personal" stuff, however there was an eerie feeling that forced itself into him, something was wrong with this room, something that made him want to rush out and lock the door behind him* |
| Memories are the materials of a Soul, it is what makes and defines you. And as such, blood is the currency of the soul, the silver plate of the will. (Work in progress) |
| Pushing pasted the feeling he was alert and ready looking for something that would hint at the pasted he began to search the room for items, paintings, letter, book anything at all that would give him a clue as to what he was looking for and what happened here, it seem he was now wondering how this clan could have lost and since his survived and was destroyed again was it this clans doing or someone else. "Here cluey cluey cluey...." |

| Suddenly the room goes dark, however no apparation appears and suddenly he is struck by the premintion that the eerie feeling had been a warning. Like a great wind had been let loose inside the room, every lose object in the room was thrown around at random and sparks of electricty light up the room, then suddenly a armored ghosts appeared through the chaos and swung its long two handed halberd at Shigai |

| Out of pure instinct Shigai leaped out of the way if it wasn't for the flying objects and the sudden attack he wouldn't have moved as he did he pulled out a kunai and flung it at the armored ghost wait why am i attacking a ghost?.... Shigai waited to see what would happen to the Kunai. (well it looks like you have some creepy house guests in your home kant XD rude ones too =P) |

| (There are several forces in the house, some which reject you and some which tolerate you, and the worst which are the ones that accept you) *That Shigai had not went for a more physical approach proved to be a saving grace, for the moment the kunai touched the ghost it vanished and so did the ghost and the room "calmed down"* |

| (Accept me? kind of like Ghost Busters where he has that dream about the ghost and yea i think you get the point XD) Shigai was a little freaked out he walked towards the door and left it he then walked down the corridor and to the stair case he looked up and down to see if it when both ways or if it only when up. |

| *The Staircase lead up and only up, but on further investigation he found that there was more subtle staircase hidden behind the main one. It was a really thin staircase and it led directly down. * |

| (tempted to go down and see if Mei is down their but it would be Meta-Gaming) Shigai made a mental note of the stair cases and went through the door that was near by them, he walked up and opened it and went through Whats behind door number 4 he was hoping it wasn't another ghost swing some form of weapon at him. |

| He found himself in yet another long corridor with a number of uninteresting doors other than the one that lead out of the corridor on the other side. However there was a large burn mark on the wall which seemed a bit off in the otherwise "perfect" building |

| Shigai studied the burn mark as he started walking down the corridor to the other end he wasn't sure what had made the burn mark be he kept staring at it as he walked, he reached the burn mark and stopped to stare at it as if it was some kind of clue to what had happened here. |
