October 10th The 49th Year of Konoha
It was a quiet night in Konoha, the full moon shone brightly in the sky and a gentle breeze flew throughout the village. The night was no different from most nights in the village, well at least that's what most of the villagers thought.
But for some of the more sensitive ninja there was a bad smell in the air, this smell felt uncomfortable and sent an unease through their bones.
But just then the village's Sensor Corps noticed a large amount of chakra gathering and the space itself folding. But before they could even think what to do it was too late.
POOOF!!! A giant crash was heard throughout the area and a huge cloud of smoke blocked off the view of the villagers and then a roar erupted from the smoke cloud, dispersing the smoke.
Many normal villagers looked over in confusion and shock and all throughout Konoha ninjas immediately rushed out and jumped on the highest building they could to scout what was happening.
As soon as they saw the shadow of the giant fox and began to sense the immense chakra emanating from the fox their knees felt weak and the village was abruptly thrown into total chaos.
Uchiha Clan Compound
Uchiha Fugaku stared at the cloud of dust rising up off in the distance from the roof of the Konoha Military Police Force headquarters, and his face turned grim. His aides, the best and brightest of the Uchiha clan, stood around him watching in shock.
"Oh no! Is that ... " Yashiro murmured from his left.
Fugaku had already discerned the cause of the commotion with his own eyes. But the aides couldn't help but speak in shock, "The N-Nine Tails ... ", Inabi at his right. desperately tried to stop himself from trembling in fear.
Fugaku cast sidelong glances at his subordinates, their fear on full display, and then stared resolutely at the reality before them. "No mistakes. It's Nine Tails."
The Nine-Taills crawled out of the center of the village, its tails writhing like serpents.
The tails began to converge on the body of the burnt-orange beast, the sinister fox began roaring as if to swallow up the full moon hanging in the sky.
Given that the figure of the monster was no doubt visible from all areas of Konoha, even places not yet under attack wouldn't be exempt from the fear, and once the people there broke out of their fear there would be great panic.
As Fugaku watched the beast of legend, it seemed here only to wreak havoc on this world. "Send a unit to the scene immediately. I'll go with them."
"Lord Fugaku, you intend to set out there yourself?" Yashiro's voice quivered as he asked the question.
"Of course!" Fugaku shouted, even as his eyes remained fixed on Nine Tails. He could hear bellowing and shrieking from every corner of the village.
Fugaku stared at him "This might be the biggest disaster to befall the village since its founding. Do you think I can just sit back and watch at a time like this? Me, the chief of the Military Police Force?"
"But ... " Yoshiro stopped talking before he finished. Going near Nine Tails meant risking death.
Some of the ninja hurrying to the scene had likely already been sacrificed. It was no small wonder Yashiro was scared.
Fugaku glanced around and scoffed, "I have never once begrudged my life to do my job."
"Chief ... " Tears blurred Yashiro's thin eyes.
Fugaku shook his head, "Don't worry we aren't without a chance, the only thing that can control Nine Tails is the sharingan of the Uchiha clan, but If we don't hurry, stopping it will be impossible." he told them
But before he could continue he was interrupted "Chief!" His aide Tekka appeared, panting as though he had run up the stairs.
From the ghostly face of his capable subordinate, Fugaku guessed that something alarming had happened. "What is it?" he asked
"Instructions have come down from top brass. The police are instructed to strengthen the village defenses." he told him reluctatly.
"What did you say?" Fugaku glared at Tekka, doubting his own ears.
Cleverly grasping his superior's anger, Tekka gave voice to his own supposition.
"Since only the sharingan can control the Nine-Tails. Brass likely has misgivings-"
"Are you saying that this commotion is our fault ?! " Yashiro shouted.
But Fugaku understood so well it hurt, the fact that they truly believed that Uchiha had done this proved their hate of the clan.
The Uchiha clan was part of Konoha, they had no reason to release a creature like Nine Tails and bring about this chaos. If whoever was controlling Nine Tails avoided just their own home, they would obviously soon be a suspect.
No one in the clan would do something so foolish. Not to mention that the raging beast before his eyes was rampaging indiscriminately. If a member of the clan had indeed summoned it, they had basically called disaster down upon their own self as well.
At the very least, it could not be the work of any Uchiha that was loyal to the clan.
"Tell them, understo-" he began to tell Tekka bitterly.
But before he could talk he was cut off, "Tell them to fuck off" a young voice called out
All of them turned to the side to see a young boy jump up onto the building. As Fugaku turned to see Roku he sighed.
Roku was one of the twin stars of the Uchiha, Him and Shuisui rose to fame at the tail end of the war for their insane speed. And not only that but he was the youngest elder in the clan.
Fugaku Spoke up "Roku i understand your anger but we must follow the villages orders"
Roku looked at Fugaku annoyed "I am the head of the 4th Hokage's guard, i am recruiting you and the Uchiha elites to stop the nine tails and protect Minato and his family"
Fugaku thought for a second and the reason sounded feasible but he didn't want to disobey a direct order especially at such a volatile time.
But before he could voice his concerns Roku cut him off. "Fugaku you are under 2 misconceptions, First that the 3rd Hokage's orders mean jack shit to me, much less the elders. Minato in the Head of the village only his orders matter and its my job to protect him the 3rd Hokage has no right to impede that, 2nd mistake is that it was a suggestion it was an order" The Boy Told him
He then turned to the rest of the Uchiha around "Obey or Die" He coldly spat, then activating his 3 Tomoe and drawing his sword.
Fugaku was surprised, as he looked at this 14 year old boy that he had watched grow up and now he was threatening to kill him? He felt amused, but thinking about it the boy was right the higher brass were a thing for another day right now all that mattered was the village.
He laughed "Your right Roku, i was too Short sighted"
