## History

### Under Fire: An Exiled Man

In a distant village, a teenage boy could be seen getting escorted by five men. This boy is revealed to be Ashty, who was recently exiled from his village, The Iraq Village. Ashty reaches the end of the path and the men push him to the ground before leaving to go back to base. Ashty sits there, wondering what to do before following the paved path. On his way to find shelter, he encounters a mysterious mercenary. The mercenary tells him about a village up north and Ashty reluctantly agrees to follow the mercenary.

### A Long Haul: A Journey to An Unknown Village

Ashty and the mercenary hiked through the untamed path. Both of them didn't trust each other enough to even let their guard down around one another so they lacked a lot of sleep. One night, however, the mercenary finally tried to close the tension between them. The mercenary thought that it would be easier for them to travel knowing there's no malice between them, so he revealed his identity going by the name of Nardo. He tells Ashty that he is the leader of the village they are heading towards and that he was looking for people to recruit because they were at war with the Sakuratards clan. He stated that he saw potential in Ashty and that he was desperate because they were losing.

They both introduced themselves, finally breaking the tension between them. Nardo went into detail, telling Ashty who the Sakuratards were and their goal, which was to spread a cancerous disease throughout the world known as Retardation. After Ashty understands the situation, he decided to trust Nardo since he had nowhere else to go anyway. After a few hours of traveling, they finally make it out of the forest and find a small town. They head towards the small town, where supplies were available. Ashty and Nardo both agree to split up to buy supplies for their upcoming journey. Ashty thought about just staying at the small town, but then he realized staying in the village would be better. Ashty heads towards a weapon store, where he buys shurikens and kunai's for easier hunting. Nardo buys food and a better sword for Ashty seeing as he didn't have anything with him. Nighttime came, and both of them meet back up and prepare to leave the small town.

As they are leaving the small town, Ashty notices they are being followed; and worse, they were ninjas as well. Ashty assumes that Nardo set him up and plays along with the ploy and plans to injure Nardo once they make it back into the forest. However, as he was thinking, a kunai was already heading towards his eyes. He was too distracted to dodge and when he noticed it, it was a mere milisecond from chopping his eye. But, instead of getting a bloody eye, he hears a spark instead. Nardo had hit the kunai away from his eyes and basically saved Ashty. Nardo reminds Ashty that they're in a battle and Ashty snaps back to reality.

Both Nardo and Ashty fought the ninjas. The fight lasted for a few minutes, with the victors being Ashty and Nardo. Before Ashty could give the finishing blow on one of them, they are seemingly killed by their partner. The ninja takes his partner's body and leaves with it, but before the two left however, they revealed the name of the clan they were from: The Uchicha Clan. Nardo asks if Ashty is okay and nods before both of them finally heading into the forest, with Ashty now trusting Nardo.

### The Mysterious Village: DBS

After almost a day long of hiking, both of them eventually find themselves in-front of a village; The so-called DBS (Dattebayo Shitposting). It was a newly formed clan with rapid growth. He got introduced to some of the other people in the clan. But, two people stood out to him. their names were Zero and Kusuma. He tries to talk to Zero but Kusuma tells Ashty that he has a communication disorder and therefore cannot talk. Although, Zero talked to them by writing with a pen and paper instead of speaking them.

Kusuma Introduces Ashty to most of the current members of the Big Wood clan. Kusuma and Ashty quickly hit it off and they talked about the clan for the next few hours. It was through Kusuma that Ashty found out more about the ongoing war. The Sakuratards had apparenty invaded Nardo, almost leading to his entire collection of Konan to get destroyed. Due to this, Nardo declared war on their leader. Nardo, who was desperate to for victory against the Sakuratards clan, decided to go on a solo mission to try and find skilled people to recruit.

Nardo calls Ashty over and introduces him to the leaders. The eccentric but shit at speaking Kassy Luca, Jatin Shripadh, an admin with good strategy knowledge and Nardo himself. Ashty exchanged greetings with them and he shook their hands, officially becoming part of the DBS clan. Nardo dismisses Ashty and he complies. Ashty had a new clan. He didn't know what to make of it but his goal as of right now would be to better the clan's current condition with Sakuratards.

He settled in the clan for some time and was very active in the community. He helped with missions and he increased the growth of the clan exponentially. He increased their combat power using his knowledge from his old clan. He increased the overall combat power of the clan by ten-folds and he gained the favor of the leaders. His influence was so great that he eventually became one of the leaders of the clan. He would then form a group of people, all interested in the same hobby, which was anime. The group was filled with individuals who are also active in the clan. Some of these individuals would later become the clan leaders and moderators.

### A Name To Remember: Big Wood

In the meeting room of DBS, A Leader named Sam wanted to discuss the current war against the Sakuratards. Sam wanted to discuss their abilities. Ashty started by stating that he saw one of the Sakuratards easily fighting with a two handed kunai and that they should watch out for them. Ashty also tells them about the ninja he met a year ago when he was in the small town with Nardo. Apparently, the Uchicha clan also has a grudge for DBS and they were trying to pick out members. Ashty said he wanted to recruit that ninja over to them and the rest agreed.

As they talked, someone suddenly talks about jutsus and used it to compare their abilities against the sakuratards from the anime Naruto and Naruto: Shippuden. Sam, one of the members, was thinking of Hashirama's (a character in Naruto) jutsu, which was Shinsusenju. Only problem was that he had lost some of his memory about the anime, so he referred to the jutsu as "Big Wood". Everyone else in the council room laughed at his mistake but Ashty comes up with a brilliant idea.

Due to the growing number of leaders, he suggested they created a sub-division for the leaders of DBS. He says that they should name it Big Wood. Everyone in the room giggles at the idea but eventually agree. Ashty suggested that they should use the device that Zero uses to talk with them so they can communicate more easily. The others unanimously agreed and so Big Wood was established.

### The Silent Warrior: Othman vs Zero

A year later, on a rainy night, three figures could be seen dashing who were too fast for the naked eye to see. It was Nardo, Zero and Ashty. They were infiltrating one of the Sakuratard's bases. Nardo and Ashty wanted to complete the mission Nardo failed a year ago and dragged Zero along with them. They bolted towards the entrance with no one noticing them. They used the rain and thunder to their advantage and made sure they stepped forward when the lightning struck. All three of them made it into the base and thought they were safe. But, suddenly, a figure in the darkness called out to them menacingly. A figure could be seen in the underlying shadows. Ashty has seen him once before, he was rather meek and nice until Zero fought with him and mentally broke him. He's heard his name once before, a name he hasn't heard in a year, The Memelord: Othman stood before them. Othman spoke, but before he could even utter a word all three charged towards him.

Before any of them could even get near him, he appears behind all three of them with insane speed. It was clear he wasn't the weak person he was back then. This catches Ashty and Nardo off guard and Othman continues speaking, revealing that there is an infiltrator in DBS and has been spying on them for the past month so he came prepared. Othman had anticipated this attack to happen. Othman throws his kunai towards them at lighting fast speed. The kunai were fast, but Zero was faster. Before Othman could even think, all three of his kunai's were sent flying at an equally fast speed, if not faster. One of those kunai grazed the side of his cheek and he touched his own blood.

This enraged Othman because he realized he was betrayed by his infiltrator. He miscalculated Zero's strength and realized his blunder too late. A blurry streak charged towards Othman. He is barely able to block Zero's attack with his kunai. The collision was powerful to make a spark light enough to light the whole area around them up. Zero looks at Nardo and Ashty with an intense stare which is saying to retreat and they instantly do. Zero was now alone with Othman, the rain searing his bloodlust. Zero lunged at Othman and exchanged a few blows with their kunai.

Zero tried to find a opening, but despite his speed advantage, he couldn't. Zero proceeds to continuously strike at Othman in hopes of tiring him out. But Othman didn't show any signs of tiring out; not anytime soon. Othman desperately threw kunai towards Zero, but the only things he could hit were his after-images. Zero finally realizes what he's doing and stops attacking and looks at Othman from a distance. He stares and writes his words to the enraged Othman but his words don't come through to him. The only thing he talks about is how much he wants to kill Zero. Zero, seeing as how there was no other way, finally finds an idea to get an opening.

He stared at Othman with an insulting look, provoking him. Both of them clashed with their kunai's again. Zero would lose at this rate, Othman seemed to get faster the angrier he got. But, after some distance was put between them, Zero stared at Othman as Othman lunged at him and dropped his kunai, distracting Othman's vision for one second. This one second was enough for Zero to jump over Othman and slam him to the ground, making him cough out blood and cracking the entire ground below them. It was strong enough to cause a small shake in the entire encampment. Othman was still alive, however. Zero walked over to the knocked-out Othman and tied him up. Othman suddenly regains consciousness and tries to flee, but Zero effortlessly catches up to him and incapacitate his arm with a kunai before knocking him out. He takes Othman captive and finds out he was the assigned leader to this base. And thus, Zero was victorious and their mission was finally completed.

### A Fight Between Allies: Nardo's Loyalty is Put To The Test

Following Othmans's defeat and them struggling to hold him captive, the three went back to the DBS clan and regrouped with the other leaders. They saw Othman with them and the leaders gave a confused reaction. Nardo gave them an explanation of the situation and told them about the infiltrator. Ashty joined in and requested to interrogate Othman with Zero. Nardo and the leaders, although reluctant at first, agreed to Ashty's request.

One day the group was hanging around in the tavern when suddenly Ashty jokingly called Kassy, one of the leaders, "Amber Heard". We had a pretty good laugh except for some members. Nardo, which was the president of the clan at the time, and Nel, who was the hypocritic leader, were very unhappy about it. A fight would then break. The two factions were "The Clan Leaders" and "Ashty and His Dogs". They had previously fought before over smaller matters, but this time looks like The Clan Leaders weren't going to let Ashty slip away with this. Nardo dropped a bomb on Ashty, called the "Osama bin Laden". Nardo not knowing Ashty's full potential, was super shocked when Ashty survived the attack without a single scratch. The battle grows bigger and bigger. Nardo finally decided to exile Ashty and His Dogs from the clan, after saying his last wisdom to them. "Grwat", Nardo said, while seeing them go.
