It was a bright day in the Leaf village. The sun's rays were falling upon the village, creating bright streams of light through the many trees that the village was named after. Children could be seen playing within the streets and teenagers and adults of all ages and genders were shopping for goods, while birds could be heard singing from above them. The sounds of cheering people could be heard all over the Hidden Leaf Village as Shinobi, civilian, nobles, and commoners alike had all gathered to witness the Chuunin Exam Finals. As Hokage he looked over the village from his seat in the Kage booth, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but be pleased with the turnout, but he couldn't help having a feeling of dread lurking around.

But ignored it as he saw sitting in one section of the stands sat the members of the newly dubbed 'Konoha Twelve' which consisted of the members of the newly famed 'Rookie Nine' along with the members of Team Gai who hadn't made it to the finals. The name was given to them because of all of the Genin of Konoha who had been placed in the Chuunin Exams, all twenty-seven teams, it was the four rookie teams that passed the second stage and made it to the preliminary rounds. Sitting with them were the Jounin sensei's of the teams, minus one, each of them looking down at the students who had made it past the prelims in pride.

On the arena floor seven figures could be seen standing in a line facing the Kage booth. Six of those figures were the Genin who were about to compete in their matches; Aburame Shino, Hyuuga Neji, Nara Shikamaru, Sabaku No Gaara, Sabaku No Temari and Sabaku No Kankuro, with the last member being the Jounin proctoring this match. The proctor, Shiranui Genma, had dark brown hair reaching to his neck, and brown eyes. He was wearing his forehead protector like a bandanna, and the standard Jounin outfit of dark blue pants and a long sleeve blue shirt with his Jounin flak jacket over it.

Sarutobi frowned as he saw that they were missing three ninja, Kinuta Dosu, Uchiha Sasuke and... Megatron. He knew that Dosu was dead, his corpse having been found by his ANBU just last night, and Uchiha Sasuke was with Kakashi so it was a given that he would either make it at the late minute or turn up late. However, that Megatron wasn't standing down there it worried him even after the preliminary matches.

Down that the stadium

Shikamaru was thinking 'Oi, oi, we're missing not only Sasuke but Naruto...No, wait make that Megatron as well. Troublesome.'

Up in the stands, Ino and Sakura were getting worried. Ino suddenly asked "What are the others doing? The matches are going to begin soon." Sakura was thinking 'Where's Sasuke-kun? Not only that Freak Megatron isn't here as well.'

Suddenly there was a large thundercloud expands to cover the entire arena and soon enough, covers the entire Village in a blanket of darkness. Sparks of lightning can be seen from within the dark clouds as well as the loud and powerful claps of thunder which causes a few spectators to jump up in fright, as rainfall starts to moisten the Village. However, they ignore the rain that is starting to drenching them as a bolt of lightning shots down dead centre into the arena. What really catches the peoples eye is that the thunder bolt isn't the usually golden yellow colour but instead, the bolt of lightning is black with a hint of yellow and purple in the middle.

Genma and the other contestants, all of the Spectators cover their eyes dude attends light and the wind and stray bolts of lightning but both slide across the floor before they are blown away and they barely stop by walls.

The lightning bolt disperses and to the shock of the viewers, a man stands in the centre of where the lighting struck.

A very scary man.

Genma and the other contestants both take several steps back in fear of Nar...No Megatron who is doing a good job on putting some fear into their hearts. Not only them but quite a lot of people from the stands as well.
