You've been training under Sakonji Urokodaki for a year, and he says he'll let you go to Final Selection, once you split a boulder clean in half. You've failed so far, and you're starting to lose hope. But one day, two figures step out of the mist on Mt. Sagiri. A small girl, and a tall, pink haired young man. They both have fox masks, like you. The little girl smiles, and the man watches from behind his fox mask.
