A New Era of Change

In the mountains of which held the heads of the four hokages, a new era was about to began. A new kage was appointed to lead and protect Dokugakure. The higher powers gather and set up the things necessary for the transfer to be completed. In the dark cave, only light candles lit up the room. At the moment no one knew of this, only those chosen knew. The elders came up to Vincent and put the ancient clothes that showed power. Vincent walks up to the altar at which the ceremony would begin. All that was waited for was the current Kage.
Vincent never wanted to be kage. The position in itself carried to much power and responsibilities, but now were harsh times. This needed to happen now. Dokugakure was growing weak by the second. Changes were desperately needed. And so they wait.

The meeting with Kakusan left an impression on Izanagi, and now the man was out seeking even more knowledge. The Swordsman did ever so well sneaking into the Village. After sneaking in through the back door so to speak, Izanagi found himself perched up somewhere, a certain place that clued him up about a couple of things, The swordsman had been watching the gathering, disguised as nothing but a mere fly on the wall, one that would hardly be noticed by the mass that gathered in the cave. The shinobi knew that something of grave importance must be happening, and so the man decided to converge on the meeting place. Now vanishing from his previous position and making his way inside. Izanagi exercised stealth as he did so, now coming into view, with a sacred serpent made of steel in his right hand. The man was crouched down for a few moments, now but a mere fifteen meters away from the alter. The alter that the man who would be his target for questioning stood at. Izanagi took note of the elders that are innocent by-standards as of now. The Swordsman began rising as the sacred serpent danced, like a snake charmer had been playing his special flute. This was no cobra, no, it wasn't that species of serpent at all. Now bridging the gap between the important figure based on his current attire of, empowerment, fit for elocution in the future and strength. The eyes of the one known as Izanagi struck the figure of the man. The swordsman was ever so observant, he was also a snake in disguise as they would say.

The serpent of the serpent was tampered with in order to accomplish what Izanagi had set out to do. The soft spot at the back of the snape was the destination of the ophidian. "Don't mean to drop in uninvited, but would you mind having a chat with me? I believe its vital that you know, one of yer own, has just defected from the village. That, and there is much more that I know. I can be yer information broker if you want. Besides, how would I have known about this place? One of these so called elders in the room is one of my informants. But luckily, I am a double agent, and Dokugakure is one of the places I was tasked with protecting. So whaddya say, peeps?". The serpent in Izanagi's hand had retracted by now, as if it wanted to disappear from sight. But Izanagi could not allow that at the moment. The man wasn't exactly sure how these guys would react to his presence. Luckily, Izanagi was being as genuine as ever. The Shinobi saw no need to cause any real trouble. But whether or not things will go smoothly, is another thing all together now.

The man that stands before Vincent tells him things that seem impossible but unsurprising. At desperate times, desperate measures are needed to be taken. But because of no knowledge of who this man was, Vincent was cautious and put on of his hands onto the handle of the katana. The elders that were around we muttering things, "who is this man" "who is betraying us village" etc. A question was running through Vincent's mind, should i trust this stranger and defend myself. When Vincent looked into the man's eyes, he saw no wanting of blood at the moment. An elder walked over and whispered into Vincent's ear saying that the man is of the seven and to be careful. Vincet's eyes never left the stranger's body and hands. To be safe and insure the protection on the elders, he performed the hand seals necessary for the Shadow Imitation Technique which binded the man to Vincent. A candle on the wall behind the man created a shadow that allowed for this to happen.
"Stranger I am sorry for doing this but i have to ask a question before i let you go. I need to make sure that the people here are safe and that you truely mean no danger. I will not attack you have my word, i just need to know."
As Vincent walked toward the man, the man also walked in the same direction. When they were face to face, Vincent asked the question. The question that would decide whether to trust or not.
"Why?"

With actions thought that he performed were all in his head. The stranger was able to get Vincent before anything was able to happen. And so Vincent was knocked out and was taken by the man.
