"Daddy? Can you tell us about the resent fallen?" Yuki asks hopefully with an almost indifferent Shikamaru but his eyes told that he was just as hopeful and curious as Yuki to know the answers.

"Hum.... I don't know. It was pretty terrible" Hagane says while looking between the two children.

"Please?!" Yuki asks a bit louder, Shikamaru looking a but less indifferent at the possibility of not knowing.

Hagane chuckles and ruffles Yuki's hair, "Alright alright, I'll tell you. Just tone down your voice, ok?" Hagane says while smiling

"Ok!" Yuki says before  her and Shikamaru sit down in front of Hagane and wait patently for him to begin his story.

"Well it was about a month ago during the full moon......."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The sound of wings can be herd in the distance as a member of the Dorgan Clan flies above the red light district. After creating a few hand signs, the Clan member applies chakra to their vocal cords to project their voice. They then begin to sing a haunting melody; golden musical notation spilling out of their mouth in the process.

"Come, little children
I'll take thee away
Into a land
Of enchantment

Come, little children
The time's come to play
Here in my garden
Of shadows"

Children of the slums begin to pour out into the streets, the musical notation surrounding their bodies, pulling them closer to the Clan member who by now has landed in the middle of the street; the moonlight falling onto them revealing the Clans' men to be a woman.

"Follow, sweet children
I'll show thee the way
Through all the pain and
The sorrows

Weep not, poor children
For life is this way
Murdering beauty and
Passions"

As the woman creates more hand signs the children begin to line up in front of the woman, tears running down their cheeks as they do so once they witness the first of them all to fall. Once the woman had made her signs she placed her glowing hands on the first child's forehead and, with one touch, the life-force of the child was drained away and the child fell to the ground lifeless.

"Hush now, dear children
It must be this way
To weary of life and
Deceptions"

The next child was brought forward by golden notation and the same thing happened again and again without stopping. No matter how many bodies filled the streets, the woman continued to take more lives from the children. From the time she had appeared till now, the woman had taken over thirty lives without interruption.

"Rest now, my children
For soon we'll away
Into the calm and
The quiet"

As soon as the song ended the woman stood up and stretched her arms above her head before releasing a relaxed breath. Looking around herself, the bodies of countless children line the streets, all with tear tracks running down their cheeks and a lifeless gaze in their eyes. The woman smiles down at her work before admiring how much her chakra reserves had grown.
