Chapter 13 - chapter 13

Hiruzen was doing many paper work, it has worsen when the Uchiha massacre happened

he really is tired. and there is nothing he can do.

shikaku, the one and only hope he had left, took a 'vacation' since the third ninja war. well it's more like resignation,

but the lazy nara would never admit it anyway

Right now, he need something, something to happen so he can take a break from this papers work and be distracted.

where is naruto when he needed him the most?

he sighed, and was about to restart his work when a sudden knock can be heard outside the office. the chakra he sensed outside the office was the one who belong to Iruka!

all the tirednes who was in his face a moment ago vanished as if it wasn't there in the first place!

seems like luck is in his side today, let's hope this distraction will last long

"come in" he said calmly, then the door cracked open revealing Iruka the academy teacher of naruto, he have an odd look in his face and he wondered why...'did naruto cause other trouble?' was what Hiruzen thought

Iruka greeted the Hokage and said

"Hokage-sama I have great news for you"

Hiruzen raised his eyebrow in question, and stared at him thoughtfull

'why he looks sad and gloomy when he is about telling me a good news?'

Hiruzen nodded at him as a sign to finish

"there is someone who graduated in naruto class..."

Hiruzen was caught off-gard

'already? is it Itashi brother? if so that would be troublesome, since all he care about right now is revenge, without forgetting Danzo, he would make him join the root willingly just with talk, though I doubt he would after receiving Itashi threat...'

his face darkened and asked in low voice "Sasuke Uchiha?"

Iruka smiled "No Hokage-sama, it's a girl her name is Yumiko and she is an orphan...also she asked a reward for graduating..." he finished awkwardly

Well recently Iruka discovered that this brat was shameless and greedy

that irked him, but he didn't say anything, and let her be, for now

the Hokage eye widen in pure surprise 'she? so she's a girl...I didn't expect to see a girl graduating early...since tsunade left the village and kushina death, the kunoichis became weak. oh well, I am more curious of what she want as a reward...it will discourage her if I refused, so better make the best out of her will of fire'

"bring her to me tomorrow"

after Iruka and left, he sighed tiredly, seems like this distraction was rather troublesome and will last more then he thought.

                         -ˋˏ ༻❁༺ ˎˊ-

you left the academy after 'graduating'.

you were walking slowly, enjoying the last days of peace

you don't know what is waiting for you after graduating...but with remembering the orphanage and their caretakers,

yeah you don't mind dying at all. well not really dying, just becoming a ninja, after all your life is precious.

the news of you graduating didn't spread in the academy. yet

you are preparing yourself mentally for talking with that old intimidating Hokage, best be prepared for any questions... well and maybe telling him about borrowing the C rank scrolls... yeah that will be hard... but either way they will know sooner or later, if they don't already, so better inform them before they discover it by themselves and be in big trouble.

with that in mind you got back to the orphanage as usual, the caretaker got used to your absence most of the time even in the weekend, but they didn't care what you were doing as long as you got back alive... yeah this is how bad the orphanage is.
