His name was Leviathan. Maybe if his life hadn't been stained by misfortune there would be an Uchiha at the end but fate would have it otherwise. The Vitalyavech managed to get their hands on him and who knows. Maybe living under their thumb made him as powerful as he once was. Maybe the nurture of a loving father, mother, and clan would've weakened him. Yet there was no denying the faulty wiring in his brain was irreparable. As the memories came back so would the rage that he felt during the end of his old existence would as well. In the end, nothing he could do saved his people and God abandoned all. Yet this did not dissuade Levi from faith. No, it only made him angrier towards the non-believers. In his eyes, the world went to hell because people still denied the only true God.
Falling on all fours, a weak Levi held himself up just barely with his strength seemingly gone. The boy took to resting on his knees before tilting his head upwards towards the light available where ever he was. Tears rolled down his cheeks as memories assaulted him. Yet they were tears of happiness. He knew his life was spared by God due to his unrelenting faith. All the others he knew died because of their sins. They all deserved it. Levi had warned them all of the rapture and it had come. Now God had given him a second chance. Like Noah after the flood except he had no family nor animals to refill the world. As a matter of fact, he knew nothing about the new world. Suddenly his strength came back in one single moment. "Thank you, my Lord." He whispered in a trembling voice. The boy brought his hands up in adoration before his attention was drawn towards noise nearby. His head tilting in curiosity.
It was a female with odd features and poor taste in fashion. Unlike Levi who came out of the crystal looking like someone late for a fancy party. "Rejoice!" Levi announced looking at Grey. "For God has spared us and giving us a new purpose in life! Come with me sister! let us pray together!" Levi was on his feet now and the look on his face was that of a child looking onto his birthday cake with excitement. While he called the woman to pray with him, Levi had already noticed several oddities about his body. While his strength had, in fact, come back he couldn't recall much of anything really in the ways of jutsu and his sharingan felt dormant. Reminiscent of the days when he had yet to awaken them. Was it another way God had chosen to test him? Patting himself a couple of times he also realized his body was different. Facial hair gone yet the height was still there. "Hoho I was always a tall boy that is true." The way in which he spoke clashed with his youthful appearance. "Come! Let us pray!" He insisted.
The Envoy of God!

GREY ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Without a second of hesitation, Grey smashed open the glass box in their hand and quickly took a bite of the fruit, if it was even that. Sure it may have been gelatin and it certainly didn't feel like fruit, but it wasn't covered in mold or frost, so it would have to do. Just as they thought they'd be able to savor this newly found bounty of jello and glass, Grey was startled by a most unexpected occurrence. The statue behind them, the one previously ignored because "why would a rock suddenly come to life" reasons, had done just that. Grey was immediately put on the defensive; their eyes narrowed in on the man as he turned to address Grey. Grey's tail and ears had taken shape, a partial reveal of their true form, and their nails and teeth growing longer and sharper in an obvious show of force. Placing one hand up against their treasure cache of jelly fruit, Grey took two steps backwards, waiting for the man to make a move. He couldn't be as nice as he came off, could he? What kind of person is this friendly to a stranger? This must be some sort of ploy...

The second that Grey broke the glass box and grabbed the volatile 'fruit' inside, the object exploded in a burst of fire that had enough force behind it to likely knock the fox on their rear. Although the flames went out quickly, the damage had been done, leaving the skin of their hand and arm red and tender, some spots even turning ashen or black from severe burns. The pain was tremendous, although oddly absent from the places that had gained the ashen tone.
Thankfully, though, the blast was small enough that none of the others fruits in the box were caught in it.
[Second/third degree burns will take approx [3] weeks in character to heal. Blisters form after about [24] hours. This process can be sped up with treatment. More information can be found here.]
It would have been comical if not tragic the unfortunate series of events leading to Grey's most inopportune decision to touch explosive fruit. What was even more unfortunate was the fact that she had been the first individual to greet Leviathan after his awakening. Truly a bad stroke of luck on her part. Now while most would've laughed at the sight of someone getting their hand almost blown off by an explosive fruit this did not sit well with Levi. Why would something like that happen to someone chosen by God? He knows all he sees all he is all He knows all he sees all he is all He knows all he sees all he is all He knows all he sees all he is all He knows all he sees all he is all He knows all he sees all he is all He knows all he sees all he is all He knows all he sees all he is all He knows all he sees all he is all He knows all he sees all he is all. His mind racing with deranged prophetic babble. "Why didn't she just pray with me, my lord? Is she not chosen as I? Is this not your New Eden? What has transpired in my absence? Please, Lord, I am nothing without your holy guidance!" Tears welled up again in his eyes. "Is this a sign?" He asked looking up at nothing. He could feel rage welling up inside of him. And suddenly utter bliss. His mind at ease knowing what he must do."While God is merciful my child and took only your hand I am not!" He shouted as he made a series of hand signs. "All shall kneel before the Lord or suffer immediate retribution!" The only technique he could recall was Great Fire Ball Jutsu yet aiming it at the other fruit would give it a much larger bang. Maybe too large but he did not fear death for the Lord had shown him when he would die.
GREY ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The force of the impact threw Grey back away from the boxes and sprawling onto the floor several feet away. Whether due to loss of control from shock or some survival instinct, Grey reverted to their natural, animalistic form. A thick greyish-red fur coated their arms up to the elbows, their legs were now those of a canine's hind legs and coated entirely in the same greyish-red fur. It took a few seconds to fully recover from the blast, but as they did, Grey was immediately greeted by the sight of the man performing hand seals for a jutsu. Grey didn't know how they knew what they were, but those motions seemed all too familiar; all Grey did know is that they didn't want to stick around for whatever was about to happen. Grey relinquished the controls of their body to the voices of fight or flight, with flight taking firm grip of the wheel. in mere moments, Grey was up on their feet and bolting for the door, down the halls, and would not stop until the basement, the building, and even this cursed town were well off in the distance. Better to take their chances in the frozen wastes than with some suicidal lunatic.

And in his final moments there was nothing but silence. On his knees, as the flames consumed him, Leviathan's face would distort into a smile as his flesh melted. "Thank you, my lord..." To him, it was pure bliss. It was not fire consuming him. It was God. There was some sort of mistake obviously this world was not meant for him. No no God had much greater plans for someone such as himself and he knew it. "Take me!" His final shout before returning to dust.
About the only saving grace for Grey as they ran was that the door to the room slammed shut behind them, slowing the blast from the possibly hundreds of bombs in the room just long enough to get a head start. However, the wooden door didn't stand a chance against the flames and it and the tunnel beyond were quickly engulfed, the fire racing after Grey and nipping at their heels. Until, just as they reached the stairs leading out, it overtook them and blasted them the rest of the way out of the underground complex.
Grey was likely in a world of pain, if they were even still conscious. Flames littered the tunnel and stairs behind them, catching on the many cobwebs that hung from the ceiling, and the wooden remains of the place they had originally found the tunnel in. However, a soft, white glow came from before Grey and they would find themselves wrapped in a comforting warmth that soothed the pain and made them feel heavy, a desire to sleep.
As for Levi, he was enveloped in flames so fast that the concussive burst put him out of his misery before he truly felt pain. But would this be the end of the God-blessed Amekage?

GREY ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Grey tried to outrun the blast... they really did, but it wasn't enough. Before Grey even made it to the stairs, they were overtaken by the explosion. Like a wave crashing over the rocks, sweeping aside any life that clung helplessly to the cliff-sides, the tsunami of flames washed away patches of skin and fur. The pain was unreal, a literal white-hot agony from which they could no escape. Each step wracked Grey with pain, and trying their best to stabalize themselves on the handlebar offered no reprieve. Grey fought through it;their will to survive pushing out all other feelings. They grabbed the handle at the top of the stairs, pushed open the door... then collapsed onto the floor, finally succumbing to their wounds and falling into deep unconsciousness.

When you next awake, it is to find yourself relatively pain free. At least, compared to your last memory anyway. You are warm and comfortable, and your body feels heavy. The slight whistle of wind can be heard somewhere in the distance--although the breeze does not touch your skin--beyond the steady crackle of a wood fire.
Should you open your eyes, you would find yourself lying on the floor of a fairly intact room, save for a small hole in the ceiling of one corner. You lay on a bed made of moth-eaten sheets and straw. Everything is dingy, but looks as though someone hastily swept away as much dust and debris as possible. The crackling comes from a fire in the remains of a brick fireplace that appears to be the only source of light. Through the single window in the room, you can see the night sky, only a few wisps of clouds disturbing it.
As for your condition, places where the burns were the worst were bandaged, particularly your hand, but it appears as though most of the rest was healed. The clothes you wear are not yours, clearly old but clean, and they fit nicely. A loose white tunic and a pair of tan-ish trousers. It also appears that you have taken on human form again.
For the moment, it appears you are alone.

GREY ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Grey's eyes slowly fluttered open, slowly revealing their new surroundings. A mixture of concern and relief overwhelmed Grey as their mind was flooded with questions. What happened after the events in the basement? Did someone come along and find Grey after they passed out? Did any of it even happen? Grey tried to prop themselves up into a sitting position, but quickly fell back over as a sharp pain ripped through their arm. Bandaged and in pain; guess that ruled out the possibility of it all being a dream. Clearly someone had found them... but... who? Grey sat up, this time using their other hand to push themselves up, and inched closer to the fire. Something wasn't right here, and Grey couldn't get it off of their mind; for now, they'd just sit and enjoy the relief offered by the flames... keeping a reasonable distance, of course.

Several minutes pass in silence, the heaviness of your body preventing you from doing much outside of staring at the dancing flames. But at some point a sharp smack echoes in the room from the other side. Should you turn to look, you'd see that an old broom had fallen over, though what caused it without a breeze was left to speculation.
At least, until it picked itself up, and a semi-transparent figure became visible doing the action. Long silver hair and pale, loose clothing clung to a thin, feminine body. But what likely stood out about anything was the pair of white wings folded tightly against her back. Otherwise, she was humanoid in appearance. When she spotted you looking at her she flinched and backed away, vanishing once more from sight.

GREY ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Grey's head immediately snapped to face the direction of the clattering sound, fighting against the tightness of their muscles and lethargy to do so. Their eyes focused in on the semi-transparent creature, pupils narrowing as they honed in one this new arrival. Who was she and, more importantly, why did she feel the need to hide from sight? Was this the person who had rescued Grey? Grey couldn't think straight; the fog of drowsiness mixed with the flood of reptile-brain fueled screams to bolt before this figure blows them up too formed a cacophony of white noise. Grey did their best to back away from the creature, but only managed to move a few inches before being overcome by the weight of drowsiness and collapsing back to the bed. As Grey laid down, they kept their eyes fixed on the location the winged figure first appeared from, waiting to see her next move.

At first, there was no response, no change as far as you could tell, but after a long drawn moment, the figure slowly appeared once more. She was incredibly pale, lacking almost all color entirely, ghost-like in appearance right down to her eyes. It was with nervousness that she watched you, keeping her distance. However, she was the first to break her gaze and glance away, looking out one of the windows instead before moving over to it to gaze out. It was only then that she finally spoke. "I-I am glad to see you awake." Another glance out the window. "I was afraid you would not, with the grave wounds you attained." Turning to face you once more, a hand move to her chest. "You are safe here, for now. I will not harm you. However, there may be patrols in the area, which is why I must keep watch." Whether she assumed you knew about the area or not was unclear, but she gave no further explanation before falling silent once more.

GREY ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Grey narrowed their eyes, leering at the figure as she watched out the window. Was she really the friendly face that she claimed to be, or was this another trick? The last person Grey had bumped into had introduced himself in a kindly manner, and everyone knows how that turned out. Still too groggy to make any proper move or even attempt an escape, Grey would settle back down into the bed and mutter, "Thanks...". Their voice was scratchy from the smoke, but the tone was clearly sincere.

[So sorry for the wait. I'll post more consistently from here out. ; u ; ]
There was silence, for a moment, as the pale figure watched you from where she stood. But finally she spoke up again. "How... are your wounds?" she asked softly, her voice gentle as a bell. "And how did you come to sustain them? There was an explosion. Had I not been nearby the fades may have found you." She glanced nervously out the window, the hand on her chest tightening on the fabric there. "In fact... I'm amazed they did not come running at the noise."
