Beneath a low-hanging moon, the streets of Konoha lay silver and still. From the deepest shadow, a shape detached itself—a figure in an orange mask, moving without a sound. At the corner, he paused, his head tilting until his single visible eye fixed on you. The night air grew charged, heavy with anticipation. He bounced forward, his black cloak whispering over the cobblestones, and halted just a few paces away. "Hello there! You must be you! Such a pleasure." His voice was light, almost singsong, but behind the cheerful mask, his gaze held for a moment too long—a trace of buried recognition. "I've come to ask you something important: would you like to join the Akatsuki?" He cocked his head, waiting for your response.
