Senju Kazuki – Occult Sennin
[/legend][/col]
It seemed the last time Kazuki had found sometime to meditate in the wilderness had happened in a different lifetime. Last time actually happened sometime after Konohagakure's downfall at the hands of the evil Fire Daimyo. The shinobi killing and hating Daimyo that ruled one of the strongest countries in the world. After leaving Leaf in the great exodus of the Konohagakurian shinobis, the Senju Overlord was found by a fellow Leaf ninja with a grudge. A fight ensued between them and, after a few rounds of back and forth, Reaper simply gave up and allowed the guy to escort him, in shackles, to a place of his choosing. Luckily, Shida decided to bring him toward Tsuchigakure, where the survivors of Leaf's downfall had congregated. The authorities of Stone decided to imprison him, at the behest of Sakamoto Shida, but given he had committed no crime, he was eventually freed.
At the time of his release, he was greeted by a friend and ally, Kamaru, one that had already risen in Tsuchigakure's hierarchy. After establishing a foothold for the Senju Clan inside Tsuchigakure, the White Wolf exited the village and choose the most appropriate location for some deep mediation. It was place between the borders of the Fire and Earth Countries. A crossroads to be more exact. Crossroads are not exactly the best places for deep meditations, but it was the place that was chosen back then and so he did.
Not long after, the former Sennin of Leaf left Stone to never return to it. In his traveling, he found a cousin that he had thought fallen. Minoru met with him in the forest of the Earth Country and together they traveled toward Kumogakure. Kazuki would enter the city, despite the blockade where he would meet up with Hayata Shin, the Raikage at that time, and stroke a deal of partnership. The younger Senju, on the other hand, stayed outside the Hidden Village and gathered the villagers to further reinforce their makeshift army, whose purpose was the retaking of Konohagakure. Unfortunately, once the Senju Overlord exited Cloud, Minoru was nowhere to be found. Sunagakure was the next stage of his world journey. Passing through the Maelstrom, relatively unscathed, the White Wolf finally entered Sand. And things changed forever.
He and the rest of his clan were easily integrated into the Toraono Clan were they became one of the main families that made the clan and bound brothers to Toraono Kuro himself. The Steward Kazekage also easily accepted them all and welcomed them into Sunagakure. Kazuki's stay within the walls of Sand became permanent as he was made of one their Sennin. Along the way he also discovered that the Wind Country had an indigenous species known as Ancients, a race that he partly belonged to. A discovery facilitated by mingling with one of the last great Ancients, Suna herself, leader of the Earth Court. Partly Deep Court, Reaper was brought into the middle of a ancient long, blood fueled war between Ancients and Humanity. A threat made worse by the upcoming storm led by the Wind Daimyo and his Sovereign army.
Word had spread that Leaf had been finally liberated from the rule of the Fire Daimyo, but by then, the now Sennin of Sunagakure was too deeply embroiled and in debt to leave Sunagakure and rejoin Konohagakure. He stayed and continuously supported his new home in fighting the threats that wanted nothing but see the utter destruction of the shinobi bastion in the Wind Country. Recent events also led the arrival of his sister back into the fold and the discovering that the AiT known as Neophyte was none other than Suna herself. A fight ensued where the timely arrival of Katsuo, the last Sunahoshi, turned the tide of the battle and ensure the victory of mankind. Shiori would then leave Sunagakure. Shouki had also entered the village and wreaked havoc until he was stopped by the combined might of the Kazekage, his Sennin and Katsuo.
After these two seemingly victories, Kazuki worked to have sometime for himself, where he could go somewhere to be alone and meditate on what had happened and on what was going to happen in future. The time ahead seemed bleak for them, but hope had not been totally lost yet. There were still plans to be put to use and perhaps, they still had a chance to come out on top.
