Dance of the Fire God

Whoosh! A suit of Ninja Armor stepped onto a branch, pushed off, and swiftly vanished from sight, leaving only the branch trembling in place. Uchiha Meikyō darted through the mountain forest. Just moments ago, the Shadow Clone he had sent out had dispersed and relayed the news: it had found the Kamado family. Meikyō immediately set off under cover of night, for it was now winter. "Is it going to snow?" As dawn began to break, several fluttering snowflakes drifted down from the sky.
