Why hello there! This is my first proper story here, please read and review! I would be most grateful!

This story came to me and my friend whilst goofing off, so I hope you enjoy this as much as we did starting it off!

Please note: this is a very short chapter, just to set the scene. The story will progress as Kakashi's life unravels muhahahaha!


Hatake Kakashi stared longingly at the memorial stone in front him, wishing he could see his teammates just one more time. Nothing quite prepared him for the loneliness he felt since Rin, Obito and his sensei left him alone. He stiffened up, hearing faint footsteps coming up behind him.

"Kakashi-san," the masked anbu that was kneeled on the grass spoke quietly. "Hokage-sama wishes to speak with you."

"Yeah yeah," Kakashi muttered. That was the fifth time today she had requested his presence, and it was only noon.

The anbu, not expecting further response, disappeared leaving Kakashi alone with his thoughts once more.

Well I better get going before I get punished with more D rank missions.

Kakashi chuckled under his breath remembering the time when Naruto refused to see Tsunade, saying that the old hag needed to pay back her borrowed money before he would even talk to her again. This resulted in Team Kakashi boycotting the week's missions. The Hokage was not terribly pleased with this decision. He had spent the next month doing nothing but painting fences and weeding vegetable patches. Certainly not jounin material.

Without further delay, Kakashi stated toward the Kage tower.

Before long, the half-masked man made it to the friendly neighbourhood Kage tower. What does she want this time, he mused before entering the building. Before long, Kakashi had ascended the stairs and was knocking on the door.

"Who is it this time?" Came a gruff sounding voice from the other side of the door.

"It is me, Lady Tsunade," Kakashi retorted.

"Come in, come in. Why didn't you say so sooner?" The blonde haired women snapped. "Where have you been? I sent word for you hours ago."

"Well you see, there was this rabbit with a pocket watch and…"

"Enough," the Hokage sighed. "Why do I even bother asking anymore? It is beyond me…"

Kakashi stood in the centre of the room, before a great wooden table.

I should get myself a decent table like that… But defiantly in mahogany. Only real men get mahogany. Kakashi rambled in his head.

"I have an urgent matter to discuss with you, Hatake Kakashi." Tsunade sounded angry. The silver haired man racked his brain, to his knowledge he had not done anything to anger lady Hokage… recently at least.

"Hmm?" Kakashi asked inquisitively.

Tsunade looked him deep in the eye before turning perpendicular to him and asking, "Does this new robe make me look fat?"

Silence befell on the room before a slight chuckle escaped Kakashi's lips. He received a death glare from the lady before him, resulting in silence once more.

"Umm… No?" he responded, voice devoid of any tone that could send the person before him off. It was common knowledge in the village, you do not, under any circumstances, annoy Tsunade-hime. Not if you wanted to live. The last person to insult the Hokage was still in intensive care, almost 5 months after the brutal beating he had endured. The silver haired man had no desire to be the next receiver of said punishment.

"It is rather… uh… fetching," He continued.

The blonde looked pleased, smiling, she nodded and agreed with the man in front of her.

"That is all." She finally announced.

Just as Kakashi swiveled his feet around to flee the deranged women, he was stopped by one more question. A question the scarecrow never wanted to hear. One that sent shivers down his very spine.

"Have you done something different to your hair?"
