Prologue
A new beginning
Six months have passed since the war has ended. When the war ended the leaf village was completely restored, and things began to go back to normal. The ninja's of the village began to go on missions again and for some, life went on the same. However, for most the same could not be said. Many lives had been lost which left families broken and sad, but as time went on those families began to heal and move on.
The Fifth Hokage, Lady Tsunade, however, still had much to deal with as a result of the war. There was of course the matter of the alliance with the other villages and how long the peace will last. Also, she had to figure out who all lost their lives, and leading the progression of making a memorial for all the brave ninja who did not return.
Another situation Tsunade has to deal with is the problem of Sasuke Uchiha. Even though he had helped Naruto Uzumaki defeat the enemy and win the war, there was still much debate about his return to the leaf village. For now he was allowed to, but he would be watched constantly by ANBU for at least a year. Then, it would be decided if he would be a hidden leaf shinobi or be punished for his betrayal. Until then he would be considered a regular citizen of Konohagakure. Sort of.
Lady Tsunade was sitting quietly in her office, reading paperwork and drinking tea. Then she heard a knock on the door. "Come in!" she called out. The door opened and an ANBU came into the office. Tsunade smiled. Despite everything that needed to be done, she still found time to complete one project that she started a few months ago.
The ANBU asked, "You wanted to see me, Lady Hokage?"
"Yes," Tsunade began, "I need you to sign these papers." She tossed a small pile of papers on the edge of the desk. The ANBU looked at the Hokage for a moment before grabbing a pen and doing as told. Once the ANBU finished and handed the papers back Lady Tsunade smiled and said, "Congratulations Zuzuki Anu! You are now an ordinary Konoha Jonin. You are now relieved of your position as an ANBU Black Ops member."
Zuzuki took off her mask and hood, letting her long brown hair fall down her back. She looked at the mask sadly. She thought out loud, "I've worn this mask for five years, so that I could prove to my father that I was strong enough to be called a 'ninja'." She began to smile and joy filled her eyes. "Now I am filled with happiness to be free of this mask." Zuzuki placed the mask on Tsunade's desk and bowed, "Thank you, Lady Tsunade."
Tsunade opened her drawer and took out a headband. She handed it to Zuzuki and said, "Here is your new headband. You will begin missions in two or three weeks. That is all. If you need anything let me know." With that Zuzuki smiled, bowed, and left the office. Tsunade stared at the mask for a moment, and then returned to work.
