Description: Near the northern border of the land of fire a large group of bandits have been gathering, some kind of festival is apparently happening. This is the perfect opportunity to clear away many problems at once. Be cautious many civilians inhabit the town and we can't have any of their blood on Konoha's hands.

Reward based upon performance.

"Lemme g-" And with a snap of the neck the man was dead. A kunai was already in his partners neck. "Heh.. Too easy.." Just as he said that he dragged the two bodies into a nearby bush as they were guarding the gates of a wooden fence and Raiden didnt want anyone to see them. Once Raiden hid the bodies he focused chakra to his feet and ran up the wall, looking down into the village. It was hard to tell who was who, whether someone was a civilian or not. Just as he realized this he hopped off of the fence, taking the uniform off of one of the dead guards and walked directly through the front gates. Looking around the village he saw that there was in fact a leader. A large dark skinned man who was extremely muscular. He wielded two large scimitars and had a group of half naked women around him. He was going to enjoy killing him.

As Raiden walked toward the man, the Bandit Leader walked into a building that seemed to be the fortress inside the camp. It was large complete with guards on top equipped with bow and arrow, guards on the ground who were wielding pikes and large stone walls. The doors themselves were made of a thick steel. Raiden watched as the doors closed behind the Bandit Leader. "Hmm..." he thought as now he had to figure out a way to get into the building without alerting the whole damn village. And just like that there was a problem. Guards had found the dead bodies in the bushes. It was a complete lockdown and everyone had to go into their houses until the search for the killers was over, the only problem was, Raiden didn't have a home.

Raiden acted fast, he waited for the guards to look away and snuck into the nearest house. The house was bare with no one inside except an old man. The old man wen't to yell but before the yell left his mouth Raiden struck him in the neck, knocking him unconscious. Raiden then picked him up off of the floor and put him in his bed. This mission was going from bad to worse and fast and Raiden needed to figure out what to do. Two hours had past and the old man woke up only this time he wasn't yelling. He simply asked Raiden quietly to spare his life. "Please I beg of you I do not want to die today, not like this."
"Don't worry old man today is not your day."

"Oh thank you, thank you, is there anything I can do to help you?"

"Yes, how can i get inside that building?" pointing toward the fortress.

"Well you see...."

There is a reason why bandits aren't shinobi. They aren't as smart, aren't as stealthy, aren't as cunning as shinobi. And this is why Raiden was able to get on top of the roof of the fortress without alerting one of the roof guards. Just as he got onto the top and with four kunai, all four guards were dead leaving an opening on the top of the roof for Raiden to enter into a kill the Bandit Leader. Four bodies hit the ground as Raiden landed on top of them. The bodies made an extremely loud noise as they made contact with the floor, alerting the guards outside of the doors of the fortress. Raiden quickly unsheathed his Katana and got into a stance to defend himself.

"So you are the intruder, hmm?" The guards ran toward Raiden only to stop at the site of the Bandit Leaders hand telling them to halt.

"Let me take him."

Raiden had a serious look on his face as he aimed his katana toward his new opponent. Sparks flew as their blades clashed over and over in an amazing display of swordsmanship by both sides. Raiden quickly jumped into the air as he threw two kunai at his opponent while backflipping and landing farther away. He hit the man in his right leg and right shoulder only to watch him pull them out and throw them away from him like they were toys. Raiden had no choice but to use Kokuangyou No Jutsu - Journey into Black Darkness Technique as to keep the man at a bigger disadvantage. Beforehand Raiden was at a disadvantage as he was the smaller weaker person, but no he was fighting a blind man.

Raiden threw his katana into the air only to catch it upside down.
"What... What have you done to me..." Raiden laughed at the man. He was going to die and had no way to save himself.
"Have you ever wondered what death was like?" And as the man heard these words he felt his arm being severed from his body with one quick swipe. He screamed in agony as he lost his arm, hearing his sword and shoulder hit the ground. His men watched and were unable to do a single thing as he had not given them another order.
"Don't you think it should be agonizing? I mean your soul is being forcibly removed from your body. I would imagine that has to hurt." And again he felt his ear taken from his head. He could feel blood pouring from his body.
"Fuck you!"
"Fuck me? FUCK ME? NO FUCK YOU!" Raiden hated defiance. Removing his head was what was best for a defiant bastard such as him.

The guards could not stand there any longer. They immediately rushed in. Within six seconds they shared the same headless fate as their leader. Raiden tore off the uniform he was wearing to reveal his standard clothes. It was now that he had to fight like he had never fought before. Walking out of the building he saw atleast fifty to one hundred guards just waiting for him, angry and upset about the loss of their leader. They wanted to kill him as though that was their purpose in life and nothing else. He was waiting for it. This was going to be fun.

"Death to all who stand in my way!" Raiden warned them. As he body flickered from person to person he began to wipe them away. This was the most fun he'd had in a while. For most of them he did not immediately kill them, instead he severed a limb, or used their own weapon to pierce them into a wall, or the ground for that matter. Raiden began to use Wind Release: Beast Wave Palm, decapitating, dismembering, degloving, and mutilating all who stood in his way. He almost felt bad for them. They didn't even realize who he was. But hey, he warned them.

Just before he was about to face off against the last twenty guards he felt a certain unusual warmth on his back and stomach. When he looked down he saw something extremely unusual to him. An arrow had punctured his stomach. He looked up to see that everyone had stopped. They didn't believe he was actually able to be wounded. He slowly pulled out the arrow only for two more to enter his shoulder and leg. Falling to his knees he looked up at the sky. What was he feeling right now? Why did he hurt so bad? He attempted to body flicker again this time getting into a nearby house. To his surprise it was the same old man that had helped him before. This, he thought, could benefit him.

"Old man...." He was panting now and was in serious pain. "Get out of the house now." The guards had attempted to burn down the building instead of chasing after him. As the building caught fire he literally threw the old man out of the door to save him. "You should've just given up... Now I have to kill you all..." He quickly removed the arrows from his body. The pain was extreme. He wanted to just lay there and die at this point. Once the last arrow left his leg, he picked up his katana and ran toward the door holding his stomach. "Now you all die!"

The last twenty were the hardest to kill. Raiden was wounded in three different places and was running out of chakra. The first man ran at him like an idiot. Raiden took his blade and cleanly cut off his leg forcing him to the ground. The second and third didnt even half to leave where they were standing as they were penetrated by stone spikes. Raiden had used the jutsu Earth Release: Rising Stone Spears. Their blood poured out of their mouths like water fountains. Raiden ran up to the third guards body as he slashed at the stone spear, cutting it from the earth. The body slid off, Raiden then used the spear as a javalin to kill the fourth guard instantly after he was struck in the face, destroying his skull. Raiden was fading in and out of consciousness. He was losing blood and fast. The rest of the guards slowly circled around him. Raiden had no choice but to use almost all of the rest of his chakra to body flicker over and over again, appearing in different places, always with his sword through a different opponent.

The Civilians watched as Raiden wiped away their fathers, sons and brothers. He did not realize this until the last man begged to see his family before Raiden killed him. Unfortunately for him Raiden ended his life before that could happen. Raiden felt sick. He had just killed the strongest men of an entire village leaving only women and children. Why had the Hokage told him to do something like this? He did not feel good about what he had just done. He slowly walked over to the fortress to find bandages to wrap his wounds. Once he was bandaged up he walked back to the village so he could confront his Hokage...
