History:

Origin of the "Akira" Clan
Years after devastation, natural disaster and all sorts of disease had ravaged the land we know as the "world" today, a small group of people from the earth began to be born. They were however born at the wrong time on the shinobi timeline and were born during the time of constant strife and battle. These people were atheists in everyday and believed that they had no god, and believed that no sort of god exists within the world. They were not shunned during these early times of shinobi life, but rather ignored. There was no strong belief system yet, until shinobi began to make advancement in chakra powers. Generations began to grow stronger with proper breeding between strong individuals, clans had become chakra banks and power was now something that all clans were seeking to obtain no matter what. This continued on for centuries upon centuries, until around 5000 years after. The small family of atheists began to become ignored and they began to become an outcast, lepers without spots if you will. However they went into hiding and began to train and breed few members of their group. They were practicing the same thing that the 'religious' were practicing but in a different way. These group of people believed that the key to power was within ones self and external and purposeful manipulation of that was wrong. They did not breed and kill of weak children to become stronger, they only did so to protect the lineage of their clan. The group of atheists began to grow larger and larger, more suppressed by other clans due to the fact that they were of normal intelligence and abilities. So in retaliation of this widespread suppression the group of atheists unleashed their hidden power, a power of total human origin.

The Birth of the Akira and The "Ki"
A young boy had been the chosen one for this jutsu at a young age. The group of atheists had created a certain jutsu, one that relies on the effect that chakra has against other humans. This system of chakra purification turned normal chakras into "Ki", a very pure source of chakra with abilities that would allow the atheists to "reject" chakra based attacks which would finally give them a weapon to work with. The only problem with this was that the "ki" took years to develop and it took time and talent. It was said that talent was like elemental recomposition at the time, (FRS) and it was near impossible. The steps were certain breathing techniques that required a pure body to work under. This body had to be clean and pure without kekkei genkai, spirit, foreign seal, demon, or tailed beast. With this step completed the boy was trained into the arts of the inner ki, which purified chakra. The boy practiced until he was grown enough to start training . It turned out that this boys chakra levels were still extremely high for his age, even after the purification of his ki. He was the first success of the clan and the elders of the group of atheists from long ago were proud in him. So proud of this child that they named their selves finally, not scared to be known by a title. They named their selves after a child who was named "Akira". Akira would then grown to receive the title of the strongest after several defeats of clans and clan members who suppressed them. For years he fought and won, until now the Akira clan could rise out of their hole and live within the day light. For doing this, he was called "Akira-Jin". Instead of the normal meaning for "Jin" they used the kanji for god to call him this. He was in such, "The Ultimate Energy God".

The Prophecy Fulfilled and the Fall of the Akira (Murphy's Law)
Akira-Jin had been and even as a child was deeply interested in politics, religion and the psychology and sociology of people. To friends among his clan, he would thinking about what made them choose actions and why they thought the way they did. He was an intra-personal introvert and was in tune with his emotions and also the way others felt. For this reason he could have easily become a preacher and a manipulator of people but he chose not to. Akira rallied the peopled he had defeated and began to teach them the ways of his clan, the ways of atheism. Akira-Jin taught them that moral values were of humans, right and wrong could all be determined by their own selves and they did not need a god to to believe in, they could believe in their selves, in their own power and with their own strength. This took root deeply into several clans members who were against the idea of the current religion and seeking moral support and power. The current religion now was a myth, a whisper, the prophecy that a messiah would come to give peace to the world or to utterly destroy it. Akira-Jin went on to teach that the prophecy was the ultimate counter attack to the fighting, one that would end it in either ashes or peace. He knew that this saying was nothing but the rising and imminent disaster of what he called a One World Ninja Order. Were ninja would be the same, they would rank the same, they would live in the countries and villages. Most people believed him at the time. Akira began to teach that in order to have some sense of personalization, they would need to fight off this threat, fight against this prophecy if it come true and continue living as clans. A large multitude of people understood this and realized that fighting against it would insure a better future. However they were tired of the fighting that was going on in the world and they would rather it end. Some people were willing to go the extra mile to make the world potentially better by fighting the prophecy if it came true, but something also happened, something that would devastate the shinobi and turn them against Akira-Jin. The Sage of Six Paths, the Messiah of the prophecy took hold in the world. He was a wielder of the legendary Rinnegan and a man who out powered most people. Akira-Jin had the power to defeat him, the know how and the skill. Since Ki naturally 'rejects' those with bloodlines the Sage was at weakness because of his strong Rinnegan. His followers were now reduced to a mere 5th of his original powers. The ones that left turned to the Sage and followed him and his teachings. Even with his powers Akira realized he would be outnumbered one million to one. Taking his loss, Akira and his diminishing group of atheistic followers died out, deep into the roots of the rising religion which was taking control of the world and the way people think. Akira knew this and as he got old, he trained a successor in his ways, one who would be naturally more powerful that him.

Akira-Jin meets Finagle's Law
For all of the bad things that could happen, the worst thing that could happen, happened. The Sage of Six Paths already had "God's Eyes" and "Gods Body" and the fact that he was the fulfillment of the prophecy only made it horribly worse for Akira and his rising clan. Akira-Jin continued to train his clan up, his son and his son's son. Akira had found himself in a state of immortality, and realized that his Ki granted him this power. He could still 'die' but only during battle. Since the Ki worked wonders with cells on the physical body, the only way that any Akira clan member could die was in battle, or by using up all the ki like a normal person. This doesn't mean they could survive fatal attacks while not fighting, but normally if they led a peaceful life without fighting they could in very sound theory, live forever. But during all this, the worst thing happened to everyone, something that affected the entire world. The attack of the Ten Tailed Beast. Akira himself, ventured closer than others could to see the power of the beast, he could resist it's chakra somewhat, but more importantly he got a glimpse of the beast and more importantly his eye. The Jubi's eye shared the same ripple-like pattern of the Sage of Six Paths. Knowing that doujutsu only flowed through blood, Akira could soundly theorize that the Sage of Six Paths was not a God of a "good morals" religion, but actually a Satanistic religion which had the Sage as its puppet and main player. The Sage later then defeated the Jubi and made things more worse for the Akira clan, so worse in fact that they moved to a remote island. Now the Sage was no longer the Messiah, he was the God, the god that had taken down the Jubi and saved the whole entire world. Atheist were killed, burned at stake and shut down entirely. Anything slightly viewed as atheistic thinking was punished with death. Since the prophecy had been fulfilled that the Sage would come and had come, and then had become strong enough to defeat Satan (the Jubi) and became God, it was now irrefutable fact that the religion existed. It was such a religion that people did not view it as one but as normal way of life. The Sage had succeeded in what Akira-Jin thought was his even Satantistic plan. So in his defeat, he created a group called "Satori" or "Enlightenment". Leaving his son Bohan to watch over the clan, he took to his game of manipulation. Being the forefront of all atheism he renounced his practice to everyone and silently killed off anyone that believed in it as well. This earned him a direct trip to meet the Sage of Six Paths, for a formal apology. The Sage, being God on Earth could not resist the chance to allow him to apologize in front of everyone, seeing as it meant the eradication of anything that would challenge his power. In gratitude for this, The Sage allowed Akira-Jin to spend time with his son whom he'd chosen over his elder one. With Akira-Jin has a figurehead of the final step in the domination of religion of the Sage of Six Paths, Akira could finally make his move. Decades later of manipulation, Akira died of unknown causes... Not having been a fool that the people within the Sage's inner works could have killed him, he left instructions to his son. With The Third Ninja World war about to set into play, it was time for another Akira to move.

The Rise of Akira-Ou and the Manipulation
Akira-Ou (Ultimate Power King) was none other than Akira Bohan, Akira-Jin's first born son. When most of the Akira had now been moved in what would be called Kirigakure, they grew suppressed under an unknown clan who'd already some how gained control of the land there and had influences all over the place. Akira-Ou took manipulation deep within the roots of a clan that would be known as Senju. With his fathers manipulation set tight within the younger brother of the Sage of Six Paths, Akira-Ou began to teach Atheism once the Sage of Six Paths died. This began to strengthen his fathers theory that the religion the Sage belonged to was not a good one, but one derived from th a Satanistic type religion. If he was a true god, no matter what, he would not have died. However, Akira-Ou took to teaching atheism in an entirely different manner and began to affect the masses of those who followed the younger brother. Akira-Ou introduced a concept of atheism which placed importance on the love between humans and the will they had to protect each other. This strong system of atheism began to take hold because of the deep roots it had in one basic human emotion. Love. Since love was a human emotion, nothing gained from a deity, Akira-Ou's teaching was easy as it passed down into the most powerful clan from the the younger brother's body. This form of atheism turned into something that would shake the foundation of the belief in a god, which would reduce the Sage's past to something of a mere myth and would also cause Akira-Ou success in his fathers plans. This form of atheism was called The "Will of Fire". The "Will of Fire" placed strong believe on a natural moral that all humans had, the want to continue their clan, the want to continue on living and more importantly the want to continue on the human race. It's core principles were placed on the strength to protect others, unlike the Sage's deity status and unlike his eldest sons teachings. It gave people the idea that deep inside them, they had the might to overcome anything as long as they had the will to protect one. With this as a strong basis of strength, Akira-Ou took to bringing his clan back from the island that they were isolated on. He would then place them in a group who opposed Uchiha. Under the possible rule of Hashirama, the Akira clan would stay within Konohagakure and work underground to keep the "Will of Fire" strong and to keep their view of successful atheism and triumph over the Sage and control over one major village.

The Return of Finagle's Law Strikes the Akira!
In Kirigakure, the Akira were not all powerful. They had chosen the worse place to seek refuge, the place where the opposer's were, the descendants of the elder brother. The Shikyo's old regime were in control of the mist village and picked up a message from Akira-Ou of his successfulness in near taking over Konohagakure. All he needed as the clan to return and their plan would have been met. The Shikyo didn't accept this, because it would undo things that they had done, especially all of their monetary ties which Akira-Ou had heavy influence over. This oppression caused many Akira to die in failed attempts to leave the village. Akira-Ou desperately needed the numbers of his clan to ensure safety of his underground position, but was now being faced by a young member of Konohagakure, better known as Danzo. He opposed the Will of Fire and was now seriously in danger of losing everything over again. The Shikyo were not letting up and neither was young Danzo. When young Danzo allied with Orochimaru, the situation got even worse, which resulted in the death of Akira-Ou. Now the Shikyo's contacts were safe and they could continue influencing every village. The Akira can gave up... In a last ditch method, a few children were told to escape and become apart of Kirigakure. They would start the entire process over again. They renamed the clan to "Teru" and took control of the underground of Kirigakure as "Sector 47" which was a cover name for the age old group called "Satori", the clan which began the process of manipulation of the Sage's younger son. They had a child, who's name was Teru Mikami. They'd left the child alone, never attending to him and causing him to grow up by himself. They left key traces, hints and bread crumbs for him. Leaving files easy to reach, which allowed him access to information of the banned art of "Inner Ki". They were killed off silently by old members that had been influenced by the old regime of Shikyo.

Present
Mikami, now is the sole successor of the Inner Ki, besides two girls known as Akira-Joou and Akira-Kai. They were the small group of children who were born and told to take refuge inside of the village. Akira-Joou (Ultimate Power Queen). Akira-Joou and Akira-Kai now reside in Konohagakure, searching for Teru Mikami who is oblivious to his ironic hate for the Shikyo. They plan to train him enough to pick up the title of "Akira-Jin" again, and lead the way to the destruction of the Shikyo. However their challenge is hard. The real home of the Akira is Konohagakure, and not Kirigakure were they were suppressed. Mikami is in love with Kirigakure because it was his home as a child. Explaining this will be more than difficult.
