Six cloaked ninja made the ruthless journey across the dense forest between the two villages. The air around these ninja was dense and full of danger and, as such, any and all wildlife avoided the group, fearing the killing intent irradiating from the group. Most of this killing intent came from the young ninja that was leading the group, Tsuneo Uchiha. Albeit a Chuunin, Tsuneo could've risen to the ranks of Jonin shortly after Sasuke had passed away, but he felt that without his Sharingan, he was not worthy of any title higher than Chuunin. Still, anyone in the village that recognized the young ninja respected him. Well-mannered, intelligent, and trained by Sasuke himself, Tsuneo is considered to be the ninja to lead the Uchiha to new heights for years to come just like another predecessor of the Uchiha, Madara. The group was headed towards Konohagakure for the sole purpose of attending the Task Force Ceremony where ninja from every village are selected to participate in a five-man task force, complete with four Chuunin and a single Jonin leader.<br/><br/>As they were moving quickly from tree to tree, Tsuneo spoke to a female Uchiha that was chosen by Sasuke just like the other Uchiha that made the trek,<strong>"Natsuki-chan, do you think you'll get paired with strong people?"</strong>She let out a light laugh,<strong><em>"I can only hope, but after being in a team with you for so long, I think my definition of strong is a little skewed."</em></strong>The other Uchiha that was in Tsuneo's usual team wholeheartedly agreed with her sentiment. A non-Uchiha Jonin was in their group, Tsuneo thought that the group that gets paired up with that Jonin was going to be interesting. Natsuki asked him the same question,<strong><em>"What about you, think you're going to get strong people?"</em></strong>Tsuneo replied with a serious tone,<strong>"I sure hope so, otherwise the entire point of participating is null."</strong>She giggled in amusement and the group focused on getting to the village.<br/><br/>Finally, the group stood before the giant open doors of Konohagakure. Tsuneo lead the group once more inside the village. They were all still cloaked, but the air around them was still heavy, the group was garnering lots of attention from the villagers. Murmurs and whispers were heard, and questions were asked.<em>Who are they? They seem dangerous. Are they here for the ceremony? I sure hope so, those guys look like bad news. What village do you think they're from? Dunno, but does it matter? Konohagakure is home to the strongest ninja in the world!"</em>This last comment brought a smirk to Tsuneo's face and he started reminiscing his Chuunin exams. The majority of the ninja participating came from Konohagakure that year since it was based there. Tsuneo's team conquered the exams and brought shame to all the ninja that participated, refreshing the terror and awe that occurred when the name 'Uchiha' was uttered. Tsuneo spoke to the rest of the group,<strong>"We're going to take a slight detour."</strong>The rest of the ninja in the group nodded and followed the young man.<br/><br/>Tsuneo stood in the middle of a bustling street filled with commerce and looked up at the sky.<em>This is where the old Uchiha clan was set up... where Sasuke-shishou was born... where the massacre took place...</em>The other members looked at Tsuneo, knowing that he did this the last time they came five years before during the Chuunin Exams. The area was reconstructed, of course, after Pain destroyed the entire village but the young ninja could feel this is where the clan lived, where Sasuke lived. Tsuneo kneeled down and picked up a handful of dirt, looked at it in his palm and then dropped it slowly, watching the grains of dirt formed a pile on the floor. Konohagakure said they were going to forgive Sasuke and the Uchiha as a whole, but it was just a lie, a farce created by the higher ups. Tsuneo wasn't after revenge, but he was going to make Konohagakure regret for not increasing their battle strength by allowing the Uchiha back. He stood up and turned around, heading towards their original destination, the new Chuunin Exams Arena,<strong>"Let's go, we're going to the arena."</strong><br/><br/>Finally, they arrived at the arena and they were surrounded by ninja from everywhere. Everyone was waiting for the introduction and Tsuneo just looked around, seeing if there was anyone in particular that stood out. Eyes were on them however, the ninja were able to tell that they were dangerous. Natsuki grinned,<strong><em>"Should we just stop this charade and show them all who we are?"</em></strong>Tsuneo shrugged, not caring either way, but he had to admit, it would be amusing to see the reactions from everyone. In unison, all of them had removed their cloaks and tossed them in the air, then a male Uchiha from their group weaved handsigns and burned the cloaks in the air for an amazing display. Tsuneo scoffed, these charades did not impress him but it left an impression on some ninja around the arena. More importantly, the Uchiha symbols on the back of each of their jackets clearly showed who they were. Some recognized Tsuneo from the Chuunin exams. Whispers and shocked voices could be heard around. Tsuneo ignored this and paid attention to the Hokage who finally started the introductory speech. He listened with a stoic expression and a straight posture with crossed arms, proudly revealing that he was an Uchiha.<br/><br/>Tsuneo nodded towards Natsuki as she left towards her own group, not looking too overzealous having to return all the way back to the village.<em>A Hyuuga and Gaara's grandson, huh? Omoshiroi.. And Saibaki-san..</em>His fist tightened as he waited for his own name and team to be called. He wanted the Hokage to call his name so he could start going on missions and search for the experience that will release the heavy lock on his unawakened Sharingan. The young ninja took a deep breath and calmed down. Finally, the 13th squad, his name was called. His teammates were a member from the infamous Chishio clan from Kirigakure, an Uzumaki which might prove to be interesting, and someone he never heard of. Isako... the name didn't come up in Tsuneo's vastly informed data bank in his mind. But, a possibly interesting person was leading the group, Terumi Azura, a member of the Seven Swordsmen if he recalled correctly, though it was only recently that this happened, but he found out this piece of information during a B-ranked mission that took place around Kirigakure. This choice of Jonin appealed to him, not because of the person herself, but because of the destination. There were things bubbling in Kirigakure, danger could pop up at any corner and take them by surprise. He let an amused scoff out, ignoring everyone's excitement over an Uchiha and an Uzumaki being on the same team. It was a pleasant coincidence, or maybe it was destiny. Tsuneo saw Azura take a step forward and then head towards the exit to which he promptly followed her.<br/><br/>When he caught up with the Jonin, he noticed the others as well. Tsuneo spoke confidently,<strong>"Hello, let me introduce myself properly. I am Uchiha Tsuneo of the First Family. Yoroshiku onegaishimasu."</strong>His face remained rather emotionless and stoic as he spoke.<strong>"I will be looking forward to working with you all. As teammates."</strong>
