[PRIVATE TO Konoha Ninja and Suna Ninja // UNHACKABLE]

Kindly remember to use discretion in what you inform others of. We are ninja, after all. If you're spying, please don't talk about it on public filters--use a private, unhackable setup. If you need help with that setup, ask.

[PRIVATE TO Hughes, Minato, and anyone on the "Minato Community Squad" known to be unaffected by the event or in the body of a known ally // UNHACKABLE]

Sensei values the idea of community, and communities share and share alike, so, I'm providing you with information that may prove useful. I ask that you do the same, for myself and the others associated with this group. Due to the nature of this event, I have limited who I included in the filter.

And Alphonse, you may ask your friend the Colonel if he'll want to be included in future briefs.

In our ninja world, myself and most of my allies come from a village known as Konoha. Our other allies (Gaara and Temari, currently) are from Suna. Most of us wear headbands that designate our allegiance.

Obviously, we also have enemies. The ones currently present are the Akatsuki. I have not had much experience with the particular ninja who are here, except Itachi, but what I do know I can provide here in as briefest a form as possible. Any questions, ask.

	Uchiha Madara		A former leader of the Uchiha clan, the family from which Obito, Sasuke, and Itachi are also from. Extremely dangerous and skilled. Possesses the Sharingan (as do all our Uchiha here), time-space jutsu (unique to Madara), and powers otherwise unknown. I'm not sure about his level of sanity, either, but he has a vendetta against Konoha and an interest in Sasuke, Obito, and all who Itachi has associated with.
	Uchiha Itachi		At present, I honestly think Itachi's one of the least of our worries. His issues pertain mostly to the Elrics, my students, and myself. We probably have more to worry about with Alphonse, Obito or Sasuke's actions with regards to him than Itachi doing anything too much on his own. But we'll keep our eyes on him. He's also suffering from illness and partial, gradual blindness.
	Pain		Itachi refers to him as "Leader-Sama." If not for Madara's apparent influence here, I'd believe he was the leader of Akatsuki. He is probably very powerful and was behind the attack on Konoha. Regarded as a god in Amegakure. Powers unknown.
	Konan		Konan uses a paper jutsu, origami--or so I have heard--as her weapon. She stays by Pain's side and is very polite.

One of my allies was unfortunate enough to wake up in the body of Dr. Horrible, so we took advantage of that to examine his laboratory. This is what Anko found:

• freeze ray
• blue prints for various unfinished inventions
• copies of the blueprints of the inner city with handwritten notations
• a jet pack
• a short term energy shield

I suspect the inner city blueprints have something to do with Carmen's plan, which means this doctor may be working with her.

He also has a generator in the lab with just enough capacity to power his building. The other basic necessities: a bed, a small table with a lamp and a framed picture of a red-haired girl.
