"Mugetsu-kun. You are… a strong, handsome, brilliant young man. But… apart from your… unusual behavior… I cannot understand why young women wouldn't fall for a man like you. I believe the love you seek will find you.”

-Shikutsu Kaireena to Shikutsu Kurayami Mugetsu, prior to her death.

*~Appearance~*

Height: Five feet and ten inches tall. (5'10”)

Weight: One hundred and sixty one pounds (161Lbs)

Physical Description: As times passes, Mugetsu reaches to his adulthood as his physical appearance changed with it. His bodily structure is somewhat lanky in terms of his limbs, but he has gained an athletic tone to his chest, abdomen and biceps. His skin tone hasn't changed as he aged, knowing that it maintained his pale beige colour from his biological mother. His pale tone is not of the ordinary for it can nearly be a white as the snow itself.

His facial structure has changed as he entered through puberty, the shape of his face crosses from a normal circle to oval appearance with a charming yet cute appearance. The shape of his nose is a somewhat average and his lips are distinctive with a beige tone and a pale stripe on his middle left side of his bottom lip.

He has carried battle scars which tell the story of his life as a Shinobi of the Mist. The first came from a brotherly spat which first turned from a friendly spar into a serious combat which ended as their mother stopped the pair, leaving Mugetsu with a large slash on his right shoulder from his foster brother's Kunai. The second came from his three months of travel as a group of Bandits ambushed him and made a small slash on his left cheek, directly underneath his left eye. The third and final scar is located at the left side of his abdomen when he went of on a mission to hunt the Missing-nin and protected his foster sister, Ryoko from a near fatal blow.

Hair: Mugetsu's hair colour is naturally Silvery White from birth due to the genes of his biological father, but he dyed it with a Jet Black to change his style of appearance. The back of his tied-up hair reaches to the bottom of his neck and front bang of his Silver coloured hair has a fringe on each side of his face which lifts over it.

Eye Color: Mugetsu's eyes have no distinction of a Clan nor of a Doijutsu. His iris colour is Ice Blue with a white small ring that circles around his pupils.

Clothing: Mugetsu's style of clothing has changed as he matured into an adult with attires worn from the following occasions:

Ninja Attire – Mugetsu wears his usual ninja outfit in case of an C rank and above mission. He bears long sleeve black sports top, worn tightly onto his skin with a zipper downward and leaves his abdomen bare. For his legs, he wears a pair of teal baggy combat trousers which travels down towards the top of his ankle, along with a worn out green belt loosely tied around his waist whilst left hanging on the right side of his hip.

For his hand, he wears a pair of fingerless, metal plated, combat gloves, the white coloured left hand bares the emblem on the Hidden Mist Village whilst his black coloured right hand holds the emblem of the Twilight Village, each engraved on the back of the palm. His feet hold a pair of black Basketball Shoes with waterproof padding on the sole of his shoes. As standard for a Jounin of the Mist, Mugetsu bears the Flak Jacket with the insignia of the mist on the right shoulder. As normal, the young man carries the Headband of the mist which is tied loosely around his neck.

Casual Attire – In times of walking through normal everyday life, Mugetsu wears clothing which are unnecessary for such special occasions. He wears a black casual shirt with pinstripes, worn somewhat loosely on his torso with a slim white tie around the collar of his shirt. For his legs, he wears a pair of faded Demin Jeans that reaches down to his bottom ankle and a pair of black casual shoes made from leather.

Indoor Attire – At times when Mugetsu wishes to stay indoor, he wears clothing which are plain and simple as it can be used as his pajamas. For his torso, he wears a simple loose black t-shirt with white musical scales designs across his chest. And for his legs, he wears a pair of turquoise shorts that reaches down towards his knees.

"You think you're Mr Hotshot, huh? How can you be so ice cold, so damned chilled out when you're a friggin Jounin?! Just who do you think you are-”

"I AM WHAT I AM, OK?! ...and if you don't like that, you can go f**k yourself...”

-Shikutsu Kurayami Mugetsu's argument with Shikutsu Akira.

*~Persona~*

Personality: Mugetsu's personality changed as time passed onwards from when he was a young, arrogant teenager into becoming a matured, easygoing adult. He usually the calm laid back type of person who enjoys the company of his friends and allies around him. He can be somewhat outgoing on social which is dependant on what situation he's involved in. Ever since his former lover's death, Mugetsu hasn't been thinking about finding a girlfriend for himself. He's not the usual type to make preparations when dating a girl, let alone making the first move to breaking the ice. The results of it can make him bashful about finding love, yet the charms and warm personality that lies dormant in his soul can win the heart of a woman.

Mugetsu wasn't as smart as he was in his early teen years, but as he became an adult, he is able to understand more of what his peers would say to him. His intelligence is above average as his IQ results turned out to be 110. With this intellect, he has the ability to quickly adapt the knowledge that is given to him just to make it useful, including learning a new technique and/or skill for his benefits. As an honorary Shinobi, he obeys the orders of his superiors and will do his best to work with his allies, even if he doesn't get on with him/her. Ever since the death of his Foster Mother and the murder of his former lover, Tanaka Ayako, he has grown to become attached to his cherished one and fulfill his duty as an older brother; to look after his family and to protect them with his every ounce of strength that remains. However, he can be very serious at times and will grow to become somewhat stubborn if his allies refuse to assist him or if his cherished ones are in danger.

*~History~* *

"Kaireena-san, in case I shall pass away. Please, take care of my child. He means so much to me, I wish for him to become a strong young warrior like him father. I want you to take care… of my Mugetsu.”

-Kurayami Hanaka to Shikutsu Kaireena, 3 days prior to Mugetsu's Birth.

The Prolouge – The Birth of Mugetsu

Mugetsu, a young child born from a retired Kunoichi, Kurayami Hanaka from an expunged village know as Higure no Sato (Twilight Village) who travelled to the Hidden Mist Village to seek refuge. The baby lived throughout the process, but it was tragic as the Kunoichi died from a heart attack after birth shock. None of parental care was left for the boy that was until the Kunoichi's close friends, Shikutsu Kaireena who is an owner of a store and Shikutsu Reijin, who was once a Shinobi who specializes in Ninjutsu but retired as a Jounin held the child in their arms. With her dying wish, they promise to make him a strong warrior in honor of her death

The care of the child was theirs to protect, but it was not long before they conceived a child of their own blood. 2 years past Mugetsu's birth, Shikutsu Akira was born from a dream to a reality. The two brothers grew together yet Mugetsu lacked the interest to give Akira his undivided attention as it was placed on many other subjects. Yet he envied Akira for gaining all the attention that was needed, much to Mugetsu's dislike. They were raised like a family when the pair entered childhood. 4 years have passed and another child was conceived with the opposite gender and named Ayako.

The bonding of the family brought Mugetsu, Akira and their father to a local restaurant not far from their home, just before noticed a small group of Jounins arrived with dignity to rest themselves after another mission completed. The awes of brothers with eyes gazed at the Jounins' magnificence with their honor as Shinobis of the Mist, yet having them being mocked by the Jounins due to their inferiority as children. Reijin took a stand for his kin, peacefully and promised that they will become strong Ninja with their father's guidance. The brother registered for Ninja academy, approved by their father to be trained by their tutor and to become strong Shinobis of the next generation.

The Scoruge of Thunder – Welcome to suffering…

"Everybody suffers, but is there a meaning for it? We go through trials everyday by fate to endure what comes our way. But must fate let my family go through this pain? This is something I cannot allow…”

- Shikutsu Reijin, aftermath of Cloud Invasion before departure.

Mugetsu has reached his 11th birthday as he graduated from the Ninja Academy. His great ability to quickly adapt knowledge throughout the years, showed how his teacher was impressed with his hard work The Shikutsu Family gathered together for a feast and celebrated the young boy's success. The proud Reijin was delighted to call Mugetsu as his son, anticipated that he would become Mizukage, thus, to become Mugetsu's dream. But one day, dreams are to be crushed under the weight of the Shinobis of the Cloud. Without warning, they launched an assault to the Mist as they stood their ground and fought back. Regrettably, the Mist has failed to defend their home as the Cloud grows closer to victory.

Mugetsu was powerless against the siege, terrified as the fear of death came like a sharp arrow to his soul. All he could do is watch in horror, cower whilst blood sheds from those who stood their ground, those who's effort to flee has been for nought. His family, his friends, his teacher, they were slain before his eyes, the river of red splattered on walls, on the ground they once treaded while they breathed. Only himself, his siblings, his parents and his uncle were the survivors of the horrible genocide. It was not long until the Village signed a peace treaty, surrendered to the Hidden Cloud as they became under the enemies control. The Cloud's Conquest sought to take over the other Villages, before long… the world.

In the aftermath of the scourge, the NCIA Organization was founded by the Raikage himself. The Mist, slowly but effectively, resumed to live their peaceful lives as normal civilians. Yet, knowing there are survivors of the Mist who wishes to rebel or their home, NCIA's watchful eyes and intentions are to exterminate any insurgent on sight. The Shikutsu Family, wasn't able to continue with their normal lives. And Mugetsu, standing at the brink of trauma as sorrow swells inside his fragile soul. Reijin couldn't bear stand and watch his own family endure the endless suffering, let alone his foster son whom he promised Hanaka, to help he strengthen his body and mind. With this in mind, he abandoned his family with a kiss to his wife's forehand, fled from the Village of Torment and joined forces with the Resistance in the open outdoors, hoped that he could one day free his family from the suffering.

"There's no one there for me… Why am I always alone… There's… always hate around me… With no light… there's always darkness… the world has no light… only darkness… I… I will bring the light back to this world, even if it means to become the light myself.”

-Shikutsu Mugetsu, during his 13th birthday.

Two years later… - Darkness without Light…

The aftermath of the plague, which was been delivered upon the Hidden Mist Village. Those who with the ability to adapt, shall life their normal lives and accept the rule of the NCIA. Whilst those who despites the ruler and desires to return what was theirs, shall do what ever means necessary to reclaim their land. It has been two years since the Cloud have invaded the mist; two years since the bloodshed have stained the lives of people. The Shikutsu Family resumed their normal lives, yet partially in unpredictable times, Kaireena would not only have to deal with the anxiety of the NCIA.

In addition to the brothers, unable to gain grips to the Ninja training as it was forbidden for Non-members of the NCIA with risks to bring the culprit to custody, or to his execution. Mugetsu sat idly in his room until Akira suggested to train secretly with a friendly spar in the backyard. Without hesitation, he accepted but was gullible to understand the true purpose of his brother's intention. With the weaponry that remains from their father, the two brothers took a kunai in each hand. Soon, the duel began as they fought well and stood strong. However, it was not long until the battle have suddenly, became a struggle.

Mugetsu felt a harsh cut on his left arm, questioned his brother's intentions as he revealed it to him. Akira hated his brother, envious with an ambition to become stronger than him by whatever it takes. Mugetsu had to hold back his blow against his brother, yet he sent a devastating blow to Akira's forehead with a deep slash. Much to the boy's rage, he responded to his brother, recklessly as he made a deep slash into Mugetsu's right shoulder. Before long, Kaireena ceased the struggle and came in aid for Akira whilst Mugetsu waited for his treatment.

Kaireena was grieved due to Mugetsu's mistake before she sent him to his bedroom. He succumbed to his self-loathing, welcomed in open arms by sorrow. She punished him by grounding him for the week. His birthday came, but none was there for him, none to fill the boy with joy, none to greet him with cheerful smiles or gleeful laughter, none to gather for a feast or to wish him the best for his birthday. It was his worst birthday yet. Mugetsu was huddled and curled in a corner in the darkness of his bedroom as he muttered to himself. "The world has no light… only darkness…”

With those words, he knew that all hope would be lost. However, if it would risk his life, he will bring the light back into the world, even if it means to deliver the light himself, thus given the alias to him, Lucius.

"My first mission… and a D rank. This is something I have to do as a Shinobi of the Mist. Ryuuto-san, Yaiba-san, Misa-sama… Please give me the courage and strength to pull this off.”

-Shikutsu Mugetsu's thoughts, during his 1st D Rank Mission.

Enter the Resistance – The revolution begins…

Mugetsu aimlessly wondered the streets of the Mist before he enjoyed a nice bowl of Tonkotsu Ramen with extra char-siu. Yet, the thought of harming his younger brother still haunted him; he regretted the day he agreed to "train” with his brother, which soon became a harsh struggle. After he paid for his meal and thanked the chef, he swiftly took hold of the young boy's hand and urged to read in private. Clueless and in shock as the boy may be, he felt a folded piece of paper being slipped into his palm. It is unknown why the chef would give the boy a message, yet Mugetsu agreed and read the paper in his bedroom.

The paper turned out to be a poster, to promote a resistance group against the NCIA and to fight for the people of the village. Interest from the young boy grew, as he would wish to fight for his country, to free his family for their endless struggle. After 30 seconds have passed since he read the poster, it lit up in flames and burned into ashes. However, the memory of the promotional image burned into his mind. Determined to fight for his country and free his family, he wrote a reply on a piece of paper that seemed to be a compliment to the chef at first. It was written with 4 simple words: "Where do I sign?” with a gleeful hand drawn smiley face in the end.

After a week has passed, he decided to have a "walk” on the beach so he can train without any NCIA in sight. Mugetsu came across two other Ninjas who have suddenly awakened from their slumber. He questioned on what happened recently, only to gain answers on what happened to them and awkward first impressions to the young boy. Mugetsu hid his annoyance and introduced him with his alias, Lucius, knowing that he would want the land to recognize his name. The two introduced themselves to him. The first was Honouji Ryuuto, a specialist in Genjutsu and soon to be in Taijutsu. Moreover, the second is Yamanaka Yaiba of the Yamanaka Clan who sought refuge in the mist with knowledge of Shinjutsu.

After a short introduction therapy, a bright, white butterfly came and sent a telepathic message to the newly formed three-man cell. The purpose was unknown at first, yet Mugetsu and the team listened to her every word and found cover in an underground training room. She introduced herself as Yukishiro Misa, a Kunoichi with the potential of becoming the next Mizukage. She trained the team with the means to control their chakra further before sent off to their first mission as a team. The mission turned out to be a success yet, Misa wished the team to assist another team to upset the NCIA's order of chaos to justice. Mugetsu with his team went to the restaurant as asked and waited for his comrades. Yet Yaiba suggested the pair to scout the area nearby whist she scouts the restaurant inside to find the mysterious man whom they search.

The young boy soon began his task, much to his annoyance with the lack of action in his life until he returned to restaurant to find the mysterious man they were looking for. The man is to be the future liberator of the land and the hero of the Hidden Mist Village. His name is Umikoi Warrusu. With bartender, who turned out to be Yaiba who possessed the man with her Mind Transfer Jutsu, warned the customers to leave if they are dissatisfied with the scenery. Soon, it was only Mugetsu, his allies and the Umikoi with his wounded comrade. Mugetsu approached the wounded questioned him, but was answered with an ominous first impression from the Umikoi prince.

Soon, another ally appeared for medical attention with thanks to the young hound of an Inuzuka clan member. Mugetsu called out Ryuuto for immediate assistance to tend the wound before the doctor came to finish the job. With the wounded safe from further harm, Mugetsu can finally rest, leaned his body on the wall before he unwillingly dosed off. An hour has passed since he fell asleep; he woke to find that his allies have left the area without the young boy. Ashamed as he is of himself, Mugetsu had to return home with no objections. The only greeting he received from his mother was a slap in the cheek and a question of his whereabouts.

Mugetsu refused to reply, stormed into his bedroom and lay on his bed. Kaireena knew why he was not home due to his actions as a rebel. She pleaded him to cease his action for her sake as well as his health. However, Mugetsu ignored her words without an answer from his lips. Despite the suffering, despite the dangers, still he desires to free his family from pain. This was the young boy's ambition, even if it costs him.

Mugetsu sat on beach as he missed joining in with the action as a rebel, a mist suddenly appeared before him as a member of the Umikoi came for his aid. Without hesitation, he agreed as he remembered the eye of one from the clan. After training was carried out for him, they sent him to the shire of Ebu to deliver a message to a group of Shinobis who would retrieve their land. Mugetsu agreed to take the mission and set sail for the island of Ebu, which involved lying to his mother, the solders of the NCIA and to find a twist to find that his father is alive and well.

Infuriated with his father's deception, he swung his fist at his father and had to gain answers from him. Reijin had to keep his eyes off from NCIA whilst he was with his family, yet he still wishes to come back home to his family. Mugetsu delivered the message as he was meant to before returning to the Hidden Mist. After the young Shinobi's return, he managed to encounter many of his allies who would stand against the enemy, some includes those who are NCIA defectors. Two of the defectors sparked his attention, the first is Anima Darksol of the Sound whom he detested at first. And the second is Yamanaka Bara whom he fell in love with first hand.

One of the allies is the famous Umikoi Warrusu, who gathered his solders to rebel against the enemy and bring peace back to the Hidden Mist. And so they did, despite that Mugetsu was not of much use, still he was proclaimed as a Hero in the Shikutsu Family. Reijin was able to return home with his family, enduring the harsh grip of embrace from his children and anguish blows dealt by his wife. Despite those events, the family reunited once again. Mugetsu walked aimlessly around the outside of the pavilion, questioning to himself about the ideals of a Shinobi, to be used as a tool.

Soon, a young girl answered his question, stated that ninjas are tools yet human with dreams which are not foolish take hold of. That girl was Tanaka Ayako, Mugetsu's close friend and soon to be lover. She too was from NCIA until she defected just to become a Medical-Nin as her mother was. The pair exited from the Pavilion and begun their relationship together. But it couldn't develop further when the final battle is about to arrive.

Before Mugetsu set course for the Country of Fang, Kaireena and Reijin needed to speak to the boy. They told him of his true origin, his real mother, his adoption. The young man was in shock to know that he had a false family from all his life, even though they we're to be called so in his mind.

After they arrived to the Country of Fang, Ayako went to Mugetsu to give her a memento of her mother with a promise made to return it to her after the war is over. They both said their goodbye and shared a kiss before the mission began. Mugetsu was prepared for the worst yet he still hasn't brought out much of his potential inside to assist with the mission. It was not until long that the nightmare for everyone else in the world was over, but it was only the beginning for Mugetsu. After completing his mission, he came to a halt as he noticed about the casualties of the Shinobis who took part in the war.

Regretfully, one was his lover; Tanaka Ayako was slain in action. He screamed in anguish, wallowed into the deepest despair; he failed to protect his loved one and knew that his dream of becoming Mizukage was naught but a child's dream. Those words soon came from the lips of his hero, Umikoi Warrusu.

"Mugetsu, you are something. Despite your failures here, you are something. You are a human being, like us all. It is humanity which brought us this far, it is humanity which made us not fall into the caste they depicted us to the weak-willed perceived us to be, criminals, bloody criminals who wish only more gore and carnage. It is humanity that made us not simply strike this city away, it is humanity which makes you mourn your loved one's death. Humanity is not all about love and happiness, it's about raging passions and loss as well. Every sun has it's shadow."

The last words of the Umikoi prince sparked a mystery to the Shinobi, but it was enough to keep his dreams alive for the time being. As he arrived back home, he reunited with his family which became short-lived after hearing the death of his lover. Mugetsu and the Shikutsu Family attended the funeral of the fallen with Ayako's grave to be buried for her.

The young boy questioned to his father, "Why must your cherished ones die? Is there a meaning to suffer?” The answer was clear, humans everyday endure pain from suffering, be it anguish or loneliness, it's all the same. By taking hold of his Memento from Ayako, he decided to set course for the Twilight Village where his origin lies.

3 months after Resistance era – The Search for Answers…

The journey to find answer of his past took no further than a year, he travelled far and harshly into the Country of Shadows. Using the techniques he has learnt from his travels, staying at different homes and countries that he has come across to and constantly writes letters back home to where his foster family lives. The boy continued as he went through puberty to manhood until he has finally arrived at what remains of his village. 1 month and two weeks has he travelled to find his past but all that was found were rubbles. As he went through the ruins, he found a scroll with his father's name carved on the plating, Kurayami Hiroyoshi.

As the young boy opened the scroll, the first he noticed are inscribing which he could not understand at first. Soon, he noticed the scroll required the blood of his father to trigger the message sent to his child. As Mugetsu sacrifice a small amount of his blood, the scroll activated and the inscribing was shaped to a face of a man. The scroll turned out to be a will for his child, knowing that his wife, Kurayami Hanaka was 2 months pregnant before the village was destroyed. There was nothing left in the Man's possession, but he guided Mugetsu to enter the Village Hidden in the Rock where his grandfather awaits, Kurayami Shuuchi.

The young Shinobi obeyed his late father's last wish and set course for the Country of Earth where his grandfather lies. But just before he could arrive in the Village, Mugetsu was ambushed by bandits who attempted to steal his lover's memento and left another scar on his face. The Shinobi tried hard to fend for himself, but couldn't defeat his opponent easily. An elderly man suddenly appeared as he defended the young boy and provided a home for him. It took a few days for Mugetsu to recover, he and the elder begun their friendship together as he elder lived out in the wilderness of the Earth since his children moved on to adulthood.

After the Shinobi recover, he wanted to know the location of his grandfather. But it suddenly came to a twist that the elder is really the grandfather of the young boy. In shock and relief that his journey comes to a close, Mugetsu sought knowledge of his past from his grandfather, gaining the information enough needed to realize that his father held control of the village before the surge took place. Only few were able to escape the village with Hanaka one of the survivors, carrying the unborn child. After gaining the information needed, his hopes grew stronger to become Mizukage, knowing that being the leader is in his blood.

The journey for answers has ended; Mugetsu can finally make his way back home without worries over his origin. He wished for his grandfather to live in the mist him, yet he rejected the offer as he wished to live in peace. After he found his way back home, his foster family welcomed him with open arms. The young man thanked his foster family for taking him in their care yet he still wished to stay in their home until he's ready to move on. Soon, the young man will expect a long and dangerous challenge ahead in his life in the road to become a powerful Shinobi.

5 years before present time – One step closer to reality… **

Kurayami, Shikutsu Mugetsu – son of Kurayami Hiroshi and Hanaka, brought under care by Shikutsu Reijin and Kaireena. The young man traverses throughout in his life as a Shinobi with the names of both families to seek honor and to become one of the strongest yet. As the young boy reached 16, The Chunnin Exams was announced as the boy participated. It became a tough trial for the young boy; he pushed himself to the limits, physically and mentally as he went through a series of tests and battles before he became blessed with the rank as a Chunnin. The young Shinobi grew proud of himself and his family with it, but disaster struck his foster family as Kaireena fell ill to a terminal sickness.

As the family laid beside her in her deathbed, she spoke of how proud Mugetsu as a Shinobi, apologized for any problems that she has caused him. He forgiven his foster mother and he swore to protect the Shikutsu family and his home, just as his father tried to do so 16 years ago. With those words spoken, Kaireena has fallen into eternal slumber with a smile. The family and Mugetsu mourned for her lose, he remembered what Reijin spoken of life and death, muttering how everything can happen for a good reason. The war, the deaths of his cherished ones and the trials he faced as he grew.

As the will was spoken out, Mugetsu inherited money enough to by a new home for himself. He bought himself a Studio Flat where he can stay and begin his life as a man, thanking his foster mother for her care. As two years further have passed by, Mugetsu has done service enough to gain a small amount of a reputation needed to roam about in his homeland with pride. Although, he knew that his capability were not enough to even have his idol, Umikoi Warrusu give him the gratitude necessary to become a hero as well. Knowing this, he decided to train by himself. To learn the skills he has to possess if he is to survive in the ninja world.

Days after days, weeks after weeks, months after months and time after time, he matured as he grew powerful with advanced knowledge of Ninjutsu and learnt how to wield a blade worthy as a weapon for a Shinobi, the Ninjatō Blade. His experience in Ninjutsu grew much further as he begun to take further control of his chakra, including the knowledge of learning Keiton (Light Style) and Meiton (Dark Style) Ninjutsus, he sought to use hand seals with only one hand after seeing Hisame Haruyuki, performed such a complex skill. The ability to do so took him up to a year to both learn and master the skill with ease, Mugetsu knew that he will become noticed by everyone in the village, once he pulls his strength through.

1 month before his 19th birthday, he was assigned to a new mission who involves the assassination of a threat to the mist. Mugetsu accepted the mission with his foster sister beside him as a Medical-nin. The mission was difficult for a Chunnin such as him and a Gennin such as her. The target was a strong and formable opponent who once lived in the mist and defected against their ideals. Only five stands against the Missing-nin, a Jounin leader, 2 Chunnins, Mugetsu and Ryoko. The three stood to fight against the foe as Mugetsu stood to protect his cherished one. The Missing-nin saw an opening against Ryoko as he attempted to strike a piercing blow to her abdomen, but Mugetsu took her place as the blow nearly rendered his vital organ. But he gripped the attacker's with one hand and used his other hand to cast off his Shiro Issen to blind the Missing-nin and escape with his sister, leaving the Jounin to finish him off.

The damage done to the Shinobi was excruciating, but Ryoko managed to heal his pain enough to help him finish his journey back home. With his service to the Mist is achieved with merit, Mugetsu's potential promoted him to a Jounin rank, much to his happiness. The month passed as his 19th birthday is celebrated, his foster family gathered in a feast together, as well as his grandfather, Kurayami Shuuchi wished to stay with his only grandchild to live the rest of his few years with him. He was given a gift by his grandfather, an unique Ninjatō crafted in the Twilight Village known as, Higure no Iyoku. The weapon was carried out from generation to generation before Mugetsu's time to wield the blade himself.

As he wielded his blade on his waist sheathe, he walked his way to the grave of Tanaka Ayako, laid her Mother's memento on the bed of flower and muttered to himself. "Ayako-chan, I'm sorry it took so long. But the chaos was still in the mist of existence for the time being. The Pendant is yours again, and I will follow my dream to be Mizukage. And I will do it for my friends, my family, my idols… and for you… my love…” A tear leaked from his eye with a hint of sorrow, though with a smile of pure happiness. He walked onwards and to full his duty as the Shinobi of the Hidden Mist.

The Pride of a young child who once was a Gennin as an unnecessary tool of the Mist, now budding into a young man who has become a Jounin as one of the backbones of the Mist. The tale of Mugetsu still rides on the road from the glooming darkness to everlasting light…
