It's nearly time.

The Moon was high in the sky with Midnight staring up at it. He was standing atop the Kage's office, ready to leave once it was time. He had been preparing for this day. The day....that he would leave the village. He wondered if anyone would know, if anyone would care, if anyone would dare to try and stop him. A breeze blew by and his cloak rippled among the current. Moonlight shone through the opening in the front and glinted off of his kusarigama. He had an impassive face and was sitting. Midnight wasn't tense, nor was he nervous. He was excited with the thrill of a chase.

Midnight stood as the time had come, the moon was now centered above the village. He jumped from house to house, easing closer to the Village border. He had seemingly be home free, so far no one had even noticed his escapade.

In one final sprint Midnight left the village unnoticed. He began the long journey to the Moon Village, forever leaving Cloud Village behind, and possibly entering their bingo books. It didn't matter to him, he was on his way back home. Where he belonged. This time though, he would do much more than just kill a few people.....he would take leadership of the Country.
