Thanks for reading and hopefully leaving a review! Message me if there are any errors, Enjoy!
Konoha, the village hidden in the leaves, didn't have a tree for miles from the center of the village. It wasn't really a village either, more of a metropolis, but old habits and old names die hard. Konoha still warrants its description of "hidden in the leaves" because even the newest of the skyscrapers are sided with green tinted glass. Tourists and travelers just passing through are speechless at the futuristic look of the city that manages to mesh the modern skyscrapers without excluding the beauty of Mother Nature. The citizens of Konoha were very proud of their picture perfect town.
What the people weren't proud of and liked to keep hush hush was the seemingly unending criminal activity that was a constant in their outwardly pleasant village. More traveled people would say that it wasn't filled with anymore crime than the next large city but Konoha was a traditional place. They were mostly self-supporting, distant from the rest of the country and practically self-governed too. The independence of the city stopped them for asking for outside help for their crime problem so the upper class just endured in silence. The other social classes didn't really have leisure time to worry about big picture issues or they just couldn't care as long as it didn't affect them.
The majority of the broken laws belonged to the category of organized crime. Meaning that there were Mafia bosses in charge, in Konoha there were three main organizations. The most hated of the three was the group run by Orochimaru and his lackey Kabuto. While the other two did some despicable things, the Snakes were easily worse. On the off chance one of them was caught, it was always for some creepy, tortuous act. The Akatsuki was known for extreme violence as each of the higher-up members has severe psychopathic tendencies and didn't hesitate to punish someone. The final criminal organization was the Uchihas; they were best recognized for their utilization of fear, intimidation and kidnapping in their attempts at furthering illegal activities. When they wanted cooperation, they kidnap a member of the family so they are forced to cooperate or their family member will be slaughtered. After word got around about the ruthless familial murders the Uchihas heartlessly did, few would resist. A drastic change would soon occur for the Uchihas, even though the day seemed to be normal and like any other.
The crowd parted like the red sea had eons ago when the tall figure strutted down the sidewalk with his small group of people, including some that could possibly be called friends. The man at the front of the group was dark haired and incredibly handsome, though no female in the vicinity dared to check him out. He was flanked by another man with long brown hair in an elegant ponytail with light purple eyes on the right and on the left by a bored looking man with a spiky hairdo. The other people closely following were of no importance. Everything was as it should be until someone didn't get out of his way. The dark haired fellow was accustomed to everyone getting out of his way so he didn't stop or move to the side when a young blonde man with his eyes on the ground came barreling towards him. The crash was inevitable.
The blonde was an artist of some sort apparently because when the two collided, charcoal sketches littered the ground. Sakuke's eyes took in the beauty and simplicity of the art before sliding back to examine the other man's appearance. He was very out of place considering most of Konoha consisted of people with darker hair and eyes. The taller man expected the other to grovel at his feet when the idiot that bumped into him bent to the concrete sidewalk. Instead, he picked up his papers, and looked at the other man with eyes so full of hate they gave life to the phrase if looks could kill. It was startling to the Uchiha that it was possible for eyes so magnificently blue could be filled with so much anger they were perceived red.
"Watch it asshole! Sidewalks are meant to be shared!" He exclaimed. The man promptly walked away and was around the corner faster than anyone could react. Many who witnessed the event said that they had heard the outspoken man grumble "Damn Teme!" as he stalked away.
The man glowered at the ordinary corner the artist had just rounded. There was a deathly aura surrounding the now very imposing man. Those who knew him very well could see the surprise carefully hidden beneath the outward outrage. He couldn't remember the last time someone had disrespected him, in fact he didn't believe anyone other than family had ever shown the rudeness he had seen today. Sasuke Uchiha was furious in more ways than one.
"Boss, you okay?" One of men accompanying him asked in a quiet voice. He didn't want to see all these people who were frozen in fear die. This wasn't because he had a heart though, the man just didn't want to deal with all the covering up and disposal a mass killing would require.
"Find out who he is, Neji!" He hissed, barely relaxing his clenched jaw enough to speak.
"Yes Mr. Uchiha." Neji replied before whipping out his cell phone and having a whispered phone conversation. He was used to following any and all instructions without question and immediately. Within a minute of the situation they were resuming their intimidating stroll down the sidewalk, leaving behind many people to wonder what had just occurred.
Other than the encounter with the blonde haired idiot, the walk back to headquarters was uneventful. They walked the three blocks till their building with short clipped steps, modeled after their boss. Upon arriving to the skyscraper of the darkest green found in the city, Sasuke Uchiha went straight into his office followed by Neji and Shikamaru. Straight to his office meant getting into his personal elevator and going to the fifteenth floor. Special eye recognition was required by all entering and also voice recognition that was very accurate as picking up panic in voices. This process was quiet except for the hushed sound of their spoken names. The floor was empty except for a secretary who jumped to her feet as the group passed by her desk and entered the closed in office. He sat down in the chair behind the dark mahogany desk and laced his fingers together before fixating his eyes on the desk as if trying the burn a hole through it. The other two men who had followed him into the room took positions on either side of the thick door. It was silent for several minutes while the Uchiha stewed.
"Neji, I am quite angry at the audacity of this man," Sasuke broke the silence within the room.
Standing next to the door, Neji attempted to pacify the dangerous man. "Sir, I will have him taken care of as soon as he is located, you will never hear or see of this abomination again." He had witnessed the anger of Sasuke multiple times before and would rather the blonde man be taken care of before he took out his residual fury on other more innocent people.
"No, no, that's not what I want." He turned the swivel chair to face the window, hiding his person from the other two in the room. "I wish to speak to him, before he is taken care of. This man intrigues me, if he thinks he is special enough to warrant being rude to me, I want to know why."
"Understood," Shikamaru and Neji intoned in sync with one another. Without another sound they exited the room leaving the Uchiha alone in his office.
