"I have told them." Shini said softly. Everything came back to her, just as if it was the other day. Her pain returned, as well as the memory of hunting her friend.
"I'm sure you all have better things to do than to spend them here listening to my stories, so I'll make it short.
In my world, a place where Kaseki spent the rest of his childhood, was chaotic. A month before we all appeared in Pandora, an epidemic broke out. A virus claimed lives of many, not killing them, but possessing them. This was far beyond out control. It took over our tailed beasts and slaughtered every village it could touch. Everyone fled for the sake of survival. Everyone ran to the last place that could be corrupted. This was Konohagakure, my home.
The tailed beast were all within a second from destroying us all. Ninja from all villages came to our city as a haven, for the one place that held hope... then it happened. Our leader, Naruto Uzumaki died in my arms, and the city fell to ruins... then I found the starfall.
She told me of her cost of granting me a wish. She would give her life to bring joy to our village. Then I made my wish. I did not wish for peace, I did not wish for it all to end. I did not wish for the virus to stop. All of those things would have stopped the war, but they would not heal the damage. I wished to see my friend, one last time.
You might think I was selfish, and maybe I was. But my friend was always there when it mattered most. He always manged to make everything heal and come back to life... then he appeared at my city gates... and all the pain went away.
And so we appeared in the world of my friend, Kaseki. The virus no longer existed. Our dead were brought back to life. Our leader made his wish too. He wanted me to lead our kingdom.
So my world was in ruins, just seconds away from genocide and becoming a desolate wasteland... Pandora saved us. And we may never understand how."
Everything came back to her, her death, her life. The death of her family. There was nothing for anyone back in the world they once had. All they could do was wait, now. All they could do was build. Kaseki would bring pieces of their realm back. He would cleanse it and put it into Pandora. That's why Pandora was empty. He was preparing it for new guests. He was building the perfect world.
All they needed, was patience.
