A good distance away was a mysterious shinobi reigning from another land far from the 5 Great Nations. Ace Korimachi was walking through the forest, when he suddenly picked up the sound of a sandal. Looking to his right, in slow motion, he could see the shinobi jumping branch to branch, though he couldn't make out if it was a man or a woman. Ace turned around as they passed by on a tree branch high up in the trees. "He seems like he could show me directions..." thought Ace as he jumped into the trees, pursuing the person in an attempt to ask questions. "Hey, hold up!" Ace said as he gained footing.
