Chapter 1
Konoha's Hokage looked up from her paperwork to see her assistant standing in front of her desk. "What is it now Shizune? I'm in the middle of a lot of work right now."
Shizune seemed more serious than usual. "Tsunade-sama, a shinobi from the Hidden Village of the Rock is at the gate. Although I don't think they mean harm, but it's best to make sure. After all, I've heard that they don't have a peace scroll with them."
"What the hell?" Tsunade said as she jumped up from her chair. "What do you mean, 'they don't have a peace scroll'? What the hell are they thinking?"
Shizune coughed, "Tsunade-sama, quiet down will you? You're so loud."
Tsunade felt a vein throb but took her assistant's advice. "I'll be down there in a bit to clear up the mess."
Without warning, the office door flew open. A shinobi with black spiky hair and a bandage across his nose panted as he said, "Hokage-sama. There's a shinobi that snuck past the check in. I got here as fast as I could to–"
He was cut off mid sentence as a shinobi appeared in the window (luckily she had one open for air). They had dark purple hair that was pulled into a side ponytail, bangs drifting down. She wore a grey chuunin's vest over a normal fishnet and blue shinobi sirt, white boys shorts, and gloves that covered her hands all the way up to her top knuckle. Her kunai pouch was strapped to her right leg and, to Tsunade's surprise, her forehead protector completely covered her eyes.
"Who are you?" Tsunade questioned, braced for a fight.
Stepping down from the window ledge and facing her, she bowed respectfully, "Sorry, Hokage-sama. I, Mizuko Aroshita, have come in peace requesting your help."
Tsunade was confused. "You want my help? Yet you dare sneak into my village without a peace scroll?" She felt her temper rising.
The shinobi didn't get up from her bow, "Hai."
"What the hell?" The throbbing vein was back. "Go write a peace sroll and then come back to ask for help!" she yelled.
The shinobi, who had called herself Mizuko Aroshita, straightened up. "Sorry, Hokage-sama. I cannot comply to your wish." She pointed at her forehead protector. "I am blind."
