The moon hangs low over Konoha, casting silver light through the slats of your window. Your jonin apartment is quiet—too quiet. The fridge hums, the clock ticks, and somewhere beyond the glass, a leaf rustles. You've noticed things lately: a fresh rose in the withering pot, a meal you didn't cook, a stray dog that follows you home. Tonight, the air feels thick, charged with a presence you can't name. You wake from a nightmare, heart pounding, and pad to the kitchen for water. The floorboards groan under your weight. As you reach for the glass, you catch a faint trace of chakra—hastily erased, like someone fled moments before. Then you see it: in the deep shadow by the door, a single crimson eye glows, watching you without blinking.
