The Genin years, after the chuunin exams but before Itachi and the Akatsuki show up, before Sasuke runs away.
One day, for no reason at all, a vine begins to grow along the village wall. In hours, the vine becomes a curtain, then a wall unto itself, and soon every exit of the town is blocked by bushes and thorns so thick, and roots that go down so deep, that they are impossible to burn through or dig through or cut through.
Then, one by one, the adults start to disappear.
In just days the village is cut off from the outside world, the adults are gone, and no one older than sixteen is left to explain what's happening. The shinobi of the village-- from Naruto's year and older, most of them genin or chuunin-- have to organize the civilian children, find out what jutsu or curse their village is under, and get their parents back.
Meanwhile, the vines are growing taller and taller outside the wall...
tricky!
