Back To Suna

Asher Returned To The Village Under The Cover of Night, He Needed Time To Figure This Thing Out, and He Knew How To Bypass The Village Guards Without Being Noticed, and Asher Went Straight To Lord Kazekage. "My Lord, Orochimaru, Itachi Uchiha, and Two Other's Are In The Land Of Wind." Says Asher. "I See." Says The Kazekage. "I Managed To Acquire Blood From Itachi and One Of The Other's and In The Process Gained The Sharingan and Rinnegan. Orders?'' Asks Asher. ''The Sand Will Be Co-Hosting The Next Chunin Exams In Four Months Time With Konoha, I'm Assigning You and Your Squad To My Personal Staff, You'll Be In Charge of Security For The Final Exams.'' Says Kazekage.''And Right Now?" Asks Asher. ''I Suggest You Speak With The ANBU About The Incursion. Then Report To Lieutenant Yura For Debrief." Says The Kazekage. "Yes, My Lord." Says Asher. Asher Leaves and Proceeds To As Instructed.

Asher Was Leaving His Debrief When He Overheard Something That Caught His Attention. "Strangest Thing, These Four Guys Were Wearing Black Cloaks With A Red Cloud, Turned For One Second To Pay For My Drink, Turned Back, and They Were Gone." Says One Shinobi. Asher Briefly Invades The Man's Mind, and Gets The Relevant Information. Before Slipping A Document, Ordering That Anybody Wearing Such Cloaks Be Monitored and Asher Be Informed Of Such Information, Into The Executive Delivery Pile. Leaving, Asher Saw A Sandstorm Coming and Raised His Hood and Donned His Mask.

Asher Wasn't Technically An ANBU Black Ops Member, He Was More Of Last Resort Kind Of ANBU, He Answered Directly To The Kazekage, and NO ONE Else, and If The Threat Was Serious Enough, He'd Live Up To His Moniker, "Suna's Dragon Of The Blood-Soaked Sands". Anybody Who Was His Target Came To Fear The Shinobi In The Distinctive Dragon Mask. Many Had Tried To Usurp His Legend, and Asher Killed Every Last One Who Dared Insult Him That Way. Eventually, None Dared Take His Mantle For Their Own, For Fear Of The Brutal and Eternal Fate That Befall Those Who Usurped The Dragon's Mantle.

Few Made The Connection That Asher Was The Dragon, Most New Him as A Harsh, Unforgiving, and Brutal Taskmaster, One Who Accepted Nothing Less Than Absolute Perfection. Asher Had A Side Job, He Was A Debt Collector, and Any Who Owed His Employer Money, Either Paid In Cash Or Paid In Blood, Their Blood.

With Nothing Better To Do, Asher Returned To The Solitude Of The Demon Desert.......................
