The Hokage sent out a bunshin, one formed from paper, which like a Kage Bunshin could move on its own, travel the worlds. The paper clone trotted through Hi no Kuni, the moons light falling upon its skin. It was an exact replica of Jiyuu, the original creator, down to the stars on his face, the heavy bags beneath his eyes, and even the grizzled demeanor. The bunshin proceeded with haste through the lands. Its destination? The Land of Thunder. He wished to stand amongst the storms, the fierce landscapes.
Hi no Kuni’s trees were thick, casting their shadows upon the grassy knolls beneath. Light breezes of winds send the leaves into a rustle, creating a sweet, natural melody beautified by the calls of birds. Jiyuu frowned as he proceeded through the lands, for gray clouds covered the skies. Rain was soon to fall. Within an hour, droplets of rain began to plummet from the heavens, intensifying after yet another hour. Chakra flowed through the clone, the purpose rather subtle to anyone who was unaware of the bunshin’s nature – with that slight application of chakra it was made resistant to the rains falling from above.
As the tree line softened, Jiyuu reached the borders of Hi no Kuni, his home land behind him. The bunshin was send out for mere exploration, for never before hand he glanced upon the Lands of Thunder. Time blurred, but that passing was insignificant to the bunshin, and exhaustion was not a problem. Hours upon hours passed. The sun set and rose, days passing as the clone proceeded on. Finally, in time, it arrived in Kaminari no Kuni, standing beneath a grove of trees.
The land was open and flat, free of heavy undergrowth. A light storm brewed in the distance, several hours from unleashing its full fury upon the lands. Standing in an open space fifty meters wide, the bunshin shifted its gaze warily. Was is there to be found here?
