The Serenus Forest was peaceful, quiet. Not even the sounds of various visitors and dwellers could be heard, for this was deep in the heart of the wood. The trees here were thick; ancient. Magic seemed to be cast over the area, as magic always seems to be lurking around stars, just like the one in the sky.
The only problem was, this star was not the Sun, and it was still daytime.
A lone mushroom was the only witness to this strange event, as this star- as it was a star, for no comet, meteor, or asteroid had such a luster or tail as this one did- seemed to shoot down from the heavens, growing never larger, but always brighter. The star, which was about the size of a fist, made its great impact in the deep forest with a less than stellar 'PIFF', which was odd considering how fast it had been traveling, right on top of the poor mushroom.
Witnesses, zero.
As the glow faded away, a figure lay within the miniscule crater. Once he opened his eyes, immediately he knew something was wrong, for he shouldn't have those kind of eyes to open. He lay there, not moving, listening to the tranquil sounds around him. Slowly, he registered why he was suddenly laying in a crater. He had been falling; mysteriously pulled to the earth far below, which was strange, for only in death did stars unwillingly fall from the sky. And he most certainly did not feel dead.
Slowly, the shadowed figure sat up -another sensation that shouldn't be there- and looked down. Yes, as he suspected... he was in possession of the doll. Which confused the figure even more, for he hadn't decended from the heaven since his home had been destroyed.
More nimble now that he knew he was possessing the wooden figurine, the star spirit stood up, paused at the sight of the dead mushroom, and then took a look around.
A forest. How fitting.

It was Shino, a young ninja girl who was on her way through the forest, but she suddenly stopped on a branch close to Geno's area and took out a piece of paper. "New Pork City, interesting name...mission: defeat the commander, king Porky. Very well." She put the paper within her outfit, Shino had been hired by someone to put a stop to an upcoming dangerous plot. The ninja hadn't noticed Geno near her.
And, not surprisingly, Geno failed to notice the ninja, as he inwardly thought about his dilemma. This definately wasn't of any design from his superiors, and nothing felt wrong beyond the fact that he shouldn't even be there, in that form.
