Zetto (Birthname: Hikari Matibe) was the youngest of 6, born on February 27th in the slums of Kumogakure. Her parents were random lower Chunin, however, her father’s clan was known for their resistance and somewhat large chakra reserves. Members of the village's Foundation would snatch away the child in the dead of night, planning to use her as a jinchuriki.

## Background

During her early years, her identity as a Jinchuriki was hidden to everyone, even her. She was brought up in the foundation, knowing nothing of the outside world. IIn order to protect herself from her trauma, she developed a mild form of D.I.D, completely repressing her personality as Hikari. She referred to herself as Zetto from that day onward.

From behind the scenes, Zetto was promoted to Chunin, being sent on multiple secret missions with Jonin, these Jonin then put her forward for promotion at age 16. One night, Hikari’s personality emerged, begging to escape. Zetto denied her, explaining how they can escape when there isn’t as many hidden eyes on her.

Zetto has never so much as heard Gyuki speak, but realises she has massive amounts of chakra. She’s always put it down to being stronger than others, being raised by The Foundation. She has only awoken One Tailed Chakra mode once, at age 4. She killed her instructor and three other ‘students’ before being taken down.

## Personality

Hikari is positive, blindly optimistic and jumpy. She's easily scared and a bit cowardly, being hidden from her uprising by Zetto and her D.I.D. Hikari also is a little naive and easily manipulated, such is the case when she almost joined The Bloody Mist just because she was told how wonderful it was.

Zetto is cold, abrasive and comes across as a bit rude. She's calculated in her methods. She doesn't speak unless spoken to, in most cases.

## Appearance

Zetto is a thin teenage girl, she has short blonde hair she cuts herself with her kunai on her downtime. She wears Kumokagure shinobi uniform, she wears a mesh shirt underneath a dark purple crop top. Zetto has bright emerald green eyes, regardless of who has "control" at any point.

## Abilities

Zetto is an imperfect jinchuriki. She fights using a blade, she doesn't talk at all until the fighting has finished. Hikari thinks of herself as incapable of fighting but actually has adopted all of Zetto's skills.

## History

### The Fall of Kumogakure

Zetto was dispatched for the first time in her life. She moved out, quickly being found by a group of ANBU. She quickly used her jutsu to dispatch the group. During the fight, she was struck with a falling bit of debris, losing consciousness. She was awoken by Gyuki chastising her and granting her a tiny bit of his chakra. Zetto enters Initial State and very quickly murders the attackers. She leaves one alive, as they didn't attack her, walking away from the man shouting at her. Zetto then met General Dao.

Zetto and Dao enter a brutal fight, sending powerful strikes against each other. Dao shatters her sword against his arm, continuing to annoy the girl. Zetto eventually becomes overwhelmed by Gyuki, switching places with him. Gyuki doesn't do much better resorting to forming a Tailed Beast Bomb, during the formation Zetto takes back control, leaving her in her base form. She then tricked Dao using the substitution jutsu, running away from the fight.

### Formation of Taka

Zetto walked aimlessly away from Kumogakure, having no loyalty to the village. She eventually meets Naomi Shiame, offering to travel with her. The two meet Takumi Uchiha, who offers the pair to join his crime crew. Zetto agrees, having nothing better to do. Though Naomi insists on a fight.

Later that day, the group stopped for dango and the subject of names came up. Initially, Zetto (Hikari) suggested Hebi, but Naomi said something obnoxious that ruined the name for Takumi. Her next suggestion, Taka, however, landed well and was made official.

## Relationships

### Takumi Uchiha

Both Hikari and Zetto respect Takumi as their leader, Zetto is impressed with his power in particular. Takumi purchased Zetto's new kusanagi, Saisei.

### Naomi Shiame

Being the other girl in Taka, Hikari gravitated towards Naomi, they are both quite similar in terms of personality. Zetto believes she could be useful.

### Suzume

Suzume has been crucial in opening the communication between Hikari, Zetto and Gyuki. Thanks to her, the three have started down their path to unity.
