Creation of Hōritsu

Ouroboros sat, on the top of the tower in which his step-parents where held captive before their execution at the hands of the Lightning village. His eyes where like bullets, piercing down on the village as his body filled with an unimaginable rage. He would look down, and begin to speak outwards to the world. "Someone must bring this world to its knees. Make it succumb to order. Make it follow the law. Hōritsu. Yes the laws. Which are guaranteed to be a beneficial factor to our great world. We must bring those outlaws to justice. We are to bring them down, and make them pay for their crimes. I can not hope to raise a family with my darling love, in a world thats so filled with chaos!" He proclaimed outwards to the heavens. His eyes a dead lock on the sky above him. He analyzed the clouds. Studying their formations. He knew what he had to do. He needed a team to accomplish this task. He would clean this world up. Finally.

In the end, who was the single most definable person in existence. Who had the capacity to inflict an incalculable amount of harm to many denizens in a single span of time. No-one. But it was certainly a trait that many had wished to accomplish. No one kept honor now-a-days. But that would soon change, it would all change. Yes, as a subordinate of that mighty sword which rested well upon his back, he would often find his life changing. Constantly in a state of conflict with himself. He had made a reputation so far. Earning money to support his lover with a simple flick of his wrist. There where many people who seemed to cause disorder and unruliness in this world. Causing pain and death to innocent people in order to get their way. This world which seemed to be plummeting down in a spiral of hatred, lust, rage, greed, and anger. All of it bringing out the worst in everyone.

Kandis was at the bottom of the tower that she followed Ouroboros to. Her pink hued eyes gazing upwards as she silently watched him. She didn’t follow her lover, as she sensed that this tower was important to him in a way. She didn’t know why or how, as he hasn’t spoken about it yet, but she knew well enough from how he acted and the way his whole facial emotions looked like he needed some space to himself. As he basically yelled for all to hear of what he wanted to do, she smiled softly before she started to make her way up the tower towards him. As she got up there, she blushed a bit at the thought of the two of them raising a family together and how they would lay down the law in a way and kill others who haven’t paid for their crimes. “And we shall, my love. There must be order in this chaotic world, for our future children. I won’t allow someone to hurt them or you. We must not do this by ourselves however, we need others to join us if we want to be truly successful.” She said with a smile as she walked up behind him and gave him a hug as she rubs the side of her face against his back. She was careful to avoid the sword upon his back before she moved around to stand beside him on top of the tower. “I only wonder who will join and how many.” She said as she looks up to him while holding one of his hands.

Oh what plot convenience! Life had those set aside for some people and today Amy was a victim of being drawn in by her curiosity, but she was ahead of herself. The chains on her cloths making the usual tinging and clicks at each of her movements. A look of distaste and a stoic expression that showed no interest in anything but hate for the world. Was it hate? NO.. not actually, just indifference.. Her pale head with shocking reddish pink hair shot up at the sounds of shouting. What was this nonsense a fellow was prattling on about? Perhaps THIS was why she was sent here to such a silly village she'd otherwise never visit.

A twitch in her lips and Amy sighed, annoyed at herself for being nosy, but something interested her. By the way the fellow raged he was bound to have some intriguing plan. Deciding finally on what to do, she slowly approached the tower and moved her way up. She would remain silent and she assumed it would bother the people there, but as she awaited for her own partner to join her, she would listen intently. The look on her face plastered into staying the same nonchalant gaze. After all, there was a conversation going on or at least an attempt at one. It would be rude to interrupt, however it was rude to be quiet and stare. Lose, lose situation. Upon making thinking it through; silence was more her style anyways. 'I'm here, now where are you?' she questioned to herself, though it was directed more to someone else.

There was a good time of silence and Amy sighed. He was keeping her out of his head.. again. She found it unfair that it was her ability and yet somehow... just SOMEHOW he had managed to make it so the ability worked perfectly for him. Amy was annoyed, no doubt. She tried peering but only wasted her own chakra doing it. Her eyes wincing as she ran into a literal mental wall. She snorted to herself and looked away. That asshole.. how dare he send me here with nothing to do then have the nerve to block me out.. God sometimes I wonder about him.. Her eyes closed and she listened to any conversation the group was having. Sure it was eavesdropping, but did it matter? Probably, but Amy really didn't care.

Time passed slowly for her as he managed to tell her a few snippets here and there. Something was up and she wanted to know. She was dying to know, but he wasn't letting her. Oh how it raged her. Her aura even gave off a sort of pissed mist. Glaring at the ground she perked when he spoke after a long silence. 'Look at what?' Her eyes closed once more and she focused her chakra again, feeling it drain as she allowed their minds to connect once more. An image ran through her mind and she heard something, but was in a bit of a shock. 'HOLY SHIT!' She shouted out, projecting her thoughts into anyone nearby, then blushed at her outburst.

Looking around nervously, she fluffed her hair slightly, acting preoccupied. Her expression saying; yeah.. I didn't say a thing. Her hands dusting of her skirt making a soft musical number with her chains. The earrings in her ears dancing with the movement. How strange. She looked unnerved and kind of foolish. She really hoped they wouldn't notice.

A cloaked male appeared before the woman known as Amy Rei. His body still sore from his prior engagement and he was slightly parched. His body shifted to listen to everything that was happening while just standing there. Keeping his thoughts to Amy and himself, he projected them to her. 'Perhaps we should see what they are up to, though, that might not be a good idea....I'll head in first, then you go. Alright? Just let me give you the signal.' He said to her mentally. With that, he walked forth to the group of three people. Not saying a word still.

He eyed them and heard the fact that this one man, wished to bring law to the land. It was a rather amusing concept really. Bringing law to a corrupt land. Now if that wasn't the most cliche thing ever, he didn't know what was. But it was true. This horrid land needed someone to whip it's proverbial ass in to submission, and it wasn't going to be the regular Shinobi now was it. No, I don't believe it would be. He opened his mouth to speak, as the first time he would since he'd gotten here.

"Law is nothing but words of men and women for other men and women to follow. Order is simple the people abiding by that word, thus making order and law hand in hand. If you truly want to make this world succumb to a new master, why not cause mas havoc and destruction. Simple, that would be more counterproductive. What needs to happen, is the hunting down and killing of putrid beings that cause such chaos. Mainly, the partitions that cause them. The lieing and backstabbing people that form alliances only to cut them short after an army is built. One need only hunt down those who cause such crimes to be committed. And if that is your wish, then I shall lend you my knowledge and power."

Having been the most such a man has ever spoken before, he just stood there. Watching the three. Waiting and watching for movements and speech that would concern him.

Drake walked over from the building he had been hiding behind ever since he got into the village he had to locate something interesting. The young man made no sound as he moved softly and ninja like to his destination not exactly knowing where he was going. He had long since traded away his former foot attire for the traditional ninja sandal that he very much preferred but had it in white. Aisu's clothes were all white as they were his normal attire equipped with a fishnet shirt underneath. The child had come here from Amegakure after following a dead end to find a man he was told would have a talk with. Up until now he had pursued this man with the utmost urgency except for a few...erm distractions. Walking out from the building casually placing his hood over his head trying to act as casual as usual so as to not arouse suspicious glares. Having heard various parts of conversations while sneaking through he knew of the new rules and regulations. As well as who was the new head honcho of the village that he basically didn't bother to care about. The people he observed through the corners of his eyes seemed worn and drained which he could understand. He would be too if he spent the whole time trying to survive. Drake figured he should go to the kage's building to find some answers but figured he should just use the body flicker jutsu to get there. The hyuuga faceplamed himself for acting so much like a civilian and completely gave up on being subtle at all as he began to backflip, sideflip, and finally frontflip before disappearing with his super stoner ninja powers. The kid then jumped and dashed along the rooftops until coming across a group of people. Next thing he knew his mind was numb with shock at the sight before him in the flesh was the man he had been pursuing for so long. The weirder thing was that he was surrounded by other people who he figured were his friends. "Whats going on here?"

He leaned onto his woman. Looking outwards. Gazing into the shapeless sky. Contemplating the events which seemed to form his entire life up until this very point. What if he was wrong? What if he had become addicted to the power he was blessed with. Would that make him any less of a man? Would that tarnish his morality? Actually. What morality? He was a demon of the mist. He smiled nicely, with sincerity in his heart. He let his eyes wonder as his mind pondered the infinite loop of possibilities that seemed to continue onwards. In a repeating pattern, that was randomized. He was not sure how to answer her, but he gave it his best shot. The best possible shot he could ever have dreamed, or hoped for. "It won't matter the number. As long as at least one is on our side. We can accomplish this. I have faith in this. We shall mold the world into a utopia for all. Where no one has to feel threatened. Or feel as if they have to conform to some tyrannical being. Freedom is not Justice, but neither is Dictatorship. I do believe this could be accomplished!." He stated as he cuddled against her a bit.

He looked off the edge of the tower, a familiar voice seemed to fill his soul to the brim with joy, and the sudden craving to end the life of numerous innocents. This being the voice of the almighty snake brother. His snake brother. Exodus. What. Why. What the hell! Why did Exodus find his path here. How could he ever have found the coincidence to make his way here, to the tower in which no one should be. A place in which the base of his operations will be created. This, the tower of dread. The meeting place of the legendary duo. Oh, it was quite the amazing circumstance. Quite amazing indeed. "Ex...odus!?" His first instinct was too fight. He had left the swordsmen with the impression he would be gone forever. However his own flesh and blood, well not really but you get the point, had found him. As Exodus spoke, he laughed hard. Manically. "Exodus, I never told you. But this tower. Its just a seal. A massive physical seal that keeps the life force of my grandfather pent up into the ground. I have already attempted to remove it. Everyone in Kumo, Suna, and Iwagakure have. But it won't budge. Not without, the chakra of the Yakan. All of it." He stated as he looked down to the image of Kumogakure. "With that energy, I could purify everything. In a sea of burning fire that would never die out. It would be considered, beyond epic." He stated as he heard the clamor behind him.

A pair of people arrived about the same time. A female who was seeming to spazz out, and a male who seemed to be very shady. Normally, they would be the perfect targets for the leviathan. But these two seemed more useful then a future problem. One of them talked a bit too much, and had a cocky tone, but it was acknowledged that he himself, had a very cocky tone. So he was not annoyed by the words in which the man before him spoke. With a gleeful smile placed so skillfully upon his face. He looked at clouds. Speaking out loud. "Sure, you can say something like that is my intended plan. But I assure you, I am not some noble deity. I have my reasons." He stated cautiously to the pair he had never seen before. He was not ready.

Drake appeared. That one lad he had meet so long ago. It had been awhile since he had seen another person with those eyes. Those cold calculating eyes that only where produced by that horridly beautiful clan. This man before him, had truly be the one who kept a deep power inside, yet to be unveiled to the world in its glory. It was a beckon. Beyond that of mortal comprehension. But that was why Ouroboros felt a wave of joy suffocate its way around his body. Sqeezing tight like some sort of monster. Aiming to devour him. Oh yes, this was what he felt when he laid eyes on that stupidly amazing man. Though his questions served to be pointless. He looked at the man before him and spoke. "Whats going on? Just a discussion."

He looked at all of the people here, and he let go of the hand in which he held so firmly. He would look at all of these people, his chakra flaring high, and hostile. He raised his hand into a few hand-signs, waiting to see what would happen as each one would arrive. This was strictly for defensive purposes. Clearly. His eyes where cold and darted across the towers peak. He would notice all of the ones he had met before, and all of the ones he had never seen. His old comrade Exodus seemed to be here, along with his family member Drake. Or someone who he had considered family at least. Regardless of that, he didn't notice the purpose these peoples served here, or there initial intentions. All he did know was that it was time.

He was amused to say the least. He opened his mouth and spoke to those who seemed to have been lost in this world. "I have lead revolutions, I have lead mercenaries, and all of that is behind me now. I have sinned on a level that many before me could not comprehend. In order to atone for the sins I have committed. I have decided to rid this world of the growing chaos that seems to be ensuing it. I have formed one word into my mind about what needs to be enforced. Horitsu. The laws of this world are constantly bullied and destroyed. All of the good and valiant beings are being obliterated by these unforgivable people. These Outlaws and Bandits. Some of which hold power and rank in these so called beloved villages. No longer will I stand idly bye and watch this world around me perish. I shall bring them to justice. I am a Saibankan. A Judge, A Jury, An Executioner. All in one. But I can not do this alone. Please join me. Please help me cleanse this world. We must take these, putrid foes down. Of course, running an organization isn't cheap. So we will have to charge for our services. Of course, the pay off is not as rewarding as bringing these, malevolent people to justice." He stated eerily.

He looked at all of them and smiled warmly. "However, I will not lie. My intentions are not so, pure. I am quite selfish. I only desire to make sure that no one man can achieve anything by doing it illegally. All of these slime weaklings running around, causing our people to fight to the death. Its irritating. I will state that justice is my cause. But by taking justice into my own hands, I know that I am no better then the thugs I wish to cleanse from this world." He paused as his smile grew a bit twsited. His eyes narrowing. He seemed to have hit his bloodlust. Which made him a bit more sadistic in his thought. "However, I am perfectly content with sheding blood in order to force peace upon this world. The Bijuu, and certain cash flow from the money these contracts provide. They shall help instill this peace. This is no place for the weak hearted or for children. So I ask you. Will you join me? If you do wish to join me. We have a target to go catch. Once we accomplish this, we will be recognized by the world as a great force. This, target, goes by the name of... He would not finish until he was sure everyone there was ready for this. Upcoming task. To pledge themselves to the group that would shake the foundation of the very earth. He took Kandis's hand. He looked onwards. Once they all made their choice, he would state. "The name of the target, is Daisuke. He is the master of a very vicious gang. This mission will be broken down into parts, thus we into teams. More info later. He stated as he bowed, and vanished with Kandis.

(Skipping Kandis)

The maniac, the serpent, the one known as Ouroboros spoke in that all too familiar tone. In reality, people such as Exodus and Ouroboros should be locked away forever, without a key to open whatever seal, or door that kept them locked away. Exodus, the man on a mission was actually visiting, and soon noticed that his chance meeting could lead to future conflicts. For now though, Izanagi decided to wait and see what would happen for the most part. He was actually fine with Ouroboros picking a fight, that's if he so chose to. On the flip side of things, the former member and leader of the swordsmen decided against it. Izanagi however paid close attention to the serpent as he weaved a set of hand seals. It was a little suspicious, but Izanagi didn't let it get to him at all. They were soon joined by several other Shinobi, and they were all a little too talkative for Izanagi's liking. Did they realize they were in the presence, of someone that could potentially become their enemy? Such a foolish act. However, Exodus was more than happy to collect all of this vital information. Then again, this information might just be for his ears only. The man was a fox, a serpent, and not someone to be trusted after all. The grin painted on the mask told a million tales. Before the meeting was officially over, Izanagi had vanished from sight, just moments before Ouroboros himself had perhaps left.

Amy listened to the man's words, finding him a bit long-winded. Her eyes seeming to relax as no one seemed to notice the outburst she had placed in all their heads due to lack of control. Seryth had gone ahead of her and spoke a long speech, himself, making her again feel sort of out of place. Amy hated people, she always had and being surrounded by so many.. well, it was a major 'turn off' for her. She simply watched through vaguely intrigued eyes. Whether she'd join this cause or not was solely up to Seryth, but he wasn't here right now. He may have thought Amy hadn't noticed the different, but she was less of a fool than he thought. Sighing as she realized, yet again she was being pushed into a wild goose chase, she turned and exited not too much later than the others. She would get her answer with time, when Seryth decided to show himself in person, until then she'd push him out of her mind, showing she was more than a little pissed at him for sending her all over God's creation. She had felt something odd about the first one to speak, the man who had been speaking for hours it seemed, but she couldn't and wouldn't place it. Mid step, she placed a sign and disappeared; vanishing into the horizon to find something more productive to do with her time, until the answers were to be found.

At the sound of someone else appearing on the top of the tower with them, the female started to turn as if to ask who he was. But when the male spoke to Ouro in particular, she blinked and looked to her lover as if to gain from his response whether this male was a friend or an enemy of his. By the way he spoke, it sounded more like a friend. Could it be that he is part of the Seven Swordsman group that Ouro recently left. If so, was he here to attack or to just talk? She was wary of this male as he hid behind a mask, something she didn’t trust fully, but she wouldn’t make a move or say anything to kick start a battle. He spoke to Ouro, so she would let Ouro deal with him.

Her pink hued eyes blinked once more as she saw a female arrive soon after. Kandis refrained from holding her head when she thought she heard a female voice shout within her head that didn’t belong to Kandis in the first place. What was that… Kandis thought to herself as she looked more at the female that just arrived. Even though she hasn’t spoken outwards, she had a feeling that the voice she heard within her head belonged to her. As Ouro and the other male’s voices sounded nothing like it and she never had this happen to her before. The female though decided to just smile and look friendly, but her body was poised in making an attack just in case something went wrong all of a sudden.

And now another male entered and spoke out loud a long winded speech to the others. Then yet another male that seemed clueless on why so many people were here, but then again it must look quite a sight to see a small group of people on a roof just standing around. That would attract anyone’s attention. The female continued to stay silent as her lover that was an ex-Kage as well as an ex-member of the Seven Swordsmen spoke out to each and every one of the others that arrived. As he let go of her hand, she glanced down to see a slight imprint of his hand on her skin. She didn’t realize how tightly he was holding her hand and she didn’t care in the least bit as she was his anchor, he needed her there to keep his thoughts together. When he was done speaking to them all, she smiled warmly and bowed to each of them as she disappeared with her lover. How soon will they all meet again if ever? Only time would tell.

EXIT

The shady and shifty male that had entered disappeared just as simply as he appeared. Though, he did note that the two males that left before him must have been skitzos not to notice Amy's little out berst of mental connectivity. But then again, most people now a days were skitzos. And with a little poof, he disappeared just as quickly as he appeared. Though, it was indeed interesting to note that he was an odd little fellow, and so were the other males and that one woman.

[Exit}

Drake could hear a loud roaring sound in his ear....but was it actually a roaring sound he was hearing at the time? No it was merely his own thoughts tuning him out of reality but the voice of his own family brought him back. It seemed that his old acquaintance had grown from the last time that he had seen, but also gained a female friend also. More people were here but he paid attention to none of them, interacting with people was definitely not his greatest asset. His head turned to the sky after they were all dismissed and he stood there alone, wondering what would become of his future. hopefully he would be able to rage as much as he wanted. With a smile on his lips the young man left the scene while dashing from rooftop to rooftop.
