Before you say anything, let me just say that this was just something I wrote when I was young. Younger than I am today anyway. I am by no means proud of this work. That is why I abandoned it ages ago and have no intention of continuing it. I have my hands full with my RWBY fic anyway.

But I just decided to put it up here other wise it would have been a waste. I mean, writers write so reader can read, am I right?

Again, I was very young when I wrote this so it will suck

Well...Enjoy if you can. if not then too bad

The fire country. Despite it's name it is one of the most greenest nations in the known world. Not too hot, not too cold, Plenty of forests and rich in minerals. Everything prospers it the land of fire. Crop, money and even military power. One of the first counties ever formed, is currently the most strongest nation in the world and home to Konoha, The village hidden in the leaf

The village hidden in the leaves. Strongest and first shinobi village in history. Founded by Hashirama and the Senju clan, and Madara and the Uchiha clan. Known to have dozens of powerful shinobi clans and a reputation for producing legendary figures such as The professor or god of shinobi Hiruzen Sarutobi, Kakashi Hakate of the sharingan and The yellow flash of Konoha.

Minato Namazake. Student of Jiriaya of the Sannin, teacher of Kakashi Hakate and the fourth Hokage of Konoha. Inventor of the rasengan and the Hiuzen no Jutsu. Master seal master, surpassing his sensei and could match the famous Uzumaki clan. Secret husband of Kushina Uzumaki and father of Naruko Uzumaki. Date of death: 10th of October. Cause of death: the use of Fuuin Jutsu: Shiki Fuuin when sealing the Kyuubi in his newly born daughter Uzamaki Naruko

The third Hokage stood in his office with a small blond haired child in his arms. She was no more than one day old. As he looked into the eyes of the child of his successor he felt sorrow.

These are truly depressing times He thought to himself. The elderly Hokage sighed a very heavy sigh as he realised that the safety of the young girl was his responsibility and his alone. He had hoped that his speech he gave to the villagers moments ago would have ensured a hero status for the blond. For a moment he was sure it worked, but then he saw something in the eyes of the villagers and even some of the shinobi. It was a promise of pain.

Then a knock came from the door

"Enter" Hiruzen said as he turned around. In walked a silver haired ANBU captain.

"Uh sorry I'm late. I got lost of the roa-"

"Don't even try it. I'm in a bad mood as it is" The Hokage almost yelled at him but then remembered the baby in his arms. There was an awkward silent

"So how are things with the council? I hope that they aren't making too much trouble"

"Most of the Shinobi council understood the whole thing…But the civilian council and the village elders demanded the death of the girl. What really ticked me off was when Danzo suggested she be turned into a weapon through his 'special training'" Kakashi took a moment to absorb the information.

"Do you think she will be able to live a normal life?" The two men looked at the girl who had a fascination about the hat the Hokage wore. A small smiled formed on his lips before it disappeared

"…No…I made several laws to prevent the public from telling her the truth" Was his answer "Enough about this. Do you have anything to report on your patrol?" Kakashi took a moment to gather his words

"It went well. Iwa has not made any advances yet, nether has Kumo, but I don't think it would last long. They could probably see the smoke from there by the morning"

"Is that all?"

"Well there is this one little thing that I found…odd" Hiruzen raised an eye brow

"Odd how?"

"I found an abandoned child in a basket"

"And how was that odd?" One might think that finding a child in a basket is not very common but during a time of terror, in this case a demon attack, it was to be expected.

"I found him at the valley of the end, sitting on top of the Shodai Hokage's head. And he had this note" Kakashi handed him a small piece of paper. Hiruzen took the note and was confused upon reading it. It had words on both sides and none of them made that much sense.

It read

A gift

From the shadows

A boy laid on the dirt, in one of the many parks of Konoha, with his face buried in the dirt. His cloths were unremarkable. No symbols to signify that he was from a clan, no nothing. His looks were simple. Jet black hair, lightly tanned skin but one thing that was out of the ordinary was his eyes which were pink. Boys his age hated that colour and so did her. That didn't stop him from beating the shit out of them.

His name Hashirama. Why did this have to happen to him? Why does nothing go the way he plans? He was getting enrolled into the ninja academy and tomorrow would be his first day. That's what happens when you don't get adopted. You get turned into a tool for the village. Tool. He didn't like the sound of that. He was getting put into the elite class with all the clan heirs which means he would have to work harder than normal. It was actually a bit weird. He thought he would have been adopted by now, seeing he was named after the shodai Hokage but for some reason that was out of the question

All he wanted was to live life like a normal person. Being a ninja was cool and all but that was not his thing. Where was the fun in running around everywhere and having pills for dinner? Sure he was named after the first Hokage and sure he knew everything about his name sake but being a ninja was not his dream. No, his dream was to open a restaurant and sell the best Dango in the world! Yes Dango. Our little Hashirama loves Dango. In fact, he had a friend that would usually share Dango with. Though she was a little creepy and had a tendency to scare way ninety nine point nine percent of the male population, his friend Anko was one of his closest friends.

I wonder if Anko-chan could get me out of this mess He thought

He could remember when he first met her. It was nothing special, just an argument about Dango but he still remembered it. In fact he could remember just about anything. You see Hashirama suffers from Hyperthymesia. It was a mental condition which causes him to recall almost all of his life in picture perfect detail-along with smell, sounds and taste-with even the slightest thought relating to a certain memory, provoking him to remember it in an instant. It was unusual for a six year old to have it as it appears around the time people hits puberty. Most of the time it forces him to relive his life days at a time all in a span of a second, but Hashirama managed to gain control of it…to an extent.

Unlike most people who suffers from Hyperthymesia, Hashirama developed a way to counter it by blocking out some select days of his life and continue on as it never happened. It has its uses. He could learn things a lot faster than most people his age even if he doesn't pay attention, he could recall small things such as how to knit his clothes back together and directions to the orphanage. Hence why he was perfect for a Ninjustu specialist. And like all good things it comes with a price. That price being he could remember everything. Even the bad moments. You know those moments when you remember an embarrassing moment of your life and you cringe? That's what his life is like. 24 hours seven days a week.

"Help! Somebody help me!"

A voice came to his ears, thankfully interrupting his thoughts before they could continue. Hashirama looked up and saw a small mob of pick fork, broom and knife wielding villagers in the distance. He had never seen a real mob before. The closest thing to a mob was when he placed a stink bomb, which he stole from a chunnin via pick pocketing, in a merchant's wagon when he sold him fake goods. But that was entirely different. People chased him because they were mad in an annoyed kind of way, but these people, they were angry like a demon attacked their home. Like that would ever happen.

"Please! Help me!" Yelled a famine voice from the crowd. Then it clicked

"Hey. They're chasing a girl!" Hashirama instinctively jumped to his feet and rushed after the mob.

Sadly Hashirama wasn't fast but he did manage to keep up with them. Whoever they were chasing must have near godly stamina to run this far.

The chase went on for several more minutes before it ended in an ally way. Hashirama, still breathing heavily managed to slip between the larger adults. The pleasures of being small. Once through the surprisingly large group of angry folk, Hashirama, to say the least, was surprised to see the very a very beautiful blond girl who looked no older then he was now. She looked shorter than him and smaller. Her hair was done in two long ponytails which reached to her waist which made way for one to look at her angelic blue eyes. What really tied the whole thing together were three lines on each of her cheeks which looked like whiskers.

Wow. She looks…good He thought. Yes she was pretty cute for a six year old. He wouldn't need his memory to remember that face… but he wouldn't admit it.

"We got you now Demon!"

"You don't deserve to live!"

"This is for my brother!"

"Please" The girl sobbed hugging her legs "I didn't do anything to you"

"Liar!"

"Kill it now before ANBU arrives!"

Just as the mob started to close into the poor girl Hashirama rushed to her side and pointed accusingly at the crowd

"How dare you try to hurt this girl!" He shouted "If you want to hurt her then you will have to deal with me!" As expected his small voice did not sound so threatening. But it did cause a few confused faces

"The demon must have brainwashed him! An innocent child!"

"What the hell are you talking about?! If I was brainwashed I would know!" Hashirama yelled clearly frustrated from being accused of being brainwashed. Out of all people his would probably be the hardest to control.

"Get the kid away from the demon. Maybe we can get some help for the poor kid"

"Shut up! I'm not brainwashed!" Now one thing one must know before messing with Hashirama was that he was a laid back and sometimes lazy boy. But when he was pissed of you better watch your backs. And such people as the mob that was standing in front of him was so going to get pranked!...If he lived to carry it out of course…

"Hey Hashirama-Baka is that you?!" A familiar yet deadly voice called out

"Holy crap it's the snake bitch!"

"Run for your lives!"

Hashirama covered his mouth as a large dust cloud covered the area. He swore that some of them pissed their pants which were very funny in his book.

"Hey Baka" Anko smiled as she approached him "What was that all about?"

He knew that the public referred to Anko as the 'snake bitch/whore' but it didn't bother him. It only made it slightly harder for her to sneak up on him as it was a common occurrence seeing men running away holding their family jewels. He tried to suppress a shiver. Hashirama, thanks to his memory, instantly relived the day where Anko kicked the hope of ever having children out of a random pervert's balls-despite her being an Icha Icha pervert herself-whom she caught trying to use mirrors to look under her mini skirt. Shaking his head he walked up to the snake mistress.

"Hi Anko-chan. They were chasing this girl around town and I decide I should help" He said boisterously "I'm so awesome"

"Oh looks like Hashirama found himself a little lady friend" She teased, wiping a fake tear "I'm so proud of you Baka"

"Hey! I'm still six ya'know!"

"You seem old enough to know what I'm talking about"

"That's because you used my memory to turn me into a pervert!"

"You know you love me" She smiled deviously before turning to the small blond who had not moved since "Hey Blondie what's your name?"

"D-don't hurt me p-please" She mumbled head between her legs. Hashirama was slightly surprised when Anko's personality turned into a caring and warm one as she placed a hand on the blond's shoulder.

"I'm not going to hurt you. I just want to know your name"

I've never heard her talk like that to anyone Hashirama mused Not even me…I wonder if she knows this girl

"…Naruko" The Blond now known as Naruko said. Kami must be playing tricks on him because Anko was about to say something that he would only be possible in his dreams

"Ok Naurko. Would you like to come with me and Baka here to lunch? My treat" And that was pay for someone else's meal.

"Really?!" Naruko shouted in disbelief. When Anko nodded she jumped on to her feet like nothing happened "Well what are we waiting for? Let's go!"

"Where is she going?" Hashirama asked as he watched the blond go off into the distance.

"I don't know. Just play along Baka"

Hashirama pouted "Why should I? You never pay for my lunch"

"Well she's cuter than you" She stated

"Cute?" He mumbled "You got to be kidding me"

Hashirama and Anko watch horrified as Naruko devoured her eighth large bowl of ramen. She was smaller and shorter than Hashirama but somehow she was still going at it. He was sure she consumed the equivalent if not more than her body mass by then. How was this even possible. This black hole of a girl just defied physics…not that Hashirama knew what physics was.

Anko's so gonna force me to help pay He thought

"So…uh…I see you like ramen" Hashirama said, still terrified if the girl was human.

"Yip! Ichiraku ramen makes the best ramen ever!" She declared "I come here every chance I get Dattebayo!"

Dattebayo? She must be insane He thought

"Wow. You must get a killer profit with Naruko here" Anko said to the old man behind the counter

"That's because Naruko is our favourite customer" He said "Isn't that right Naruko"

"Yip!" She chirped "Your ramen is to die for! It's the bestest food in the whole world!"

"What in the hell are you talking about?!" Hashirama yelled

"I'm just saying that ramen is the only food worthy for a god"

"That's not true! Dango is the best!" Hashirama stated "The sweat and salty syrup mixed with the doughy thickness of the dough is more heavenly than that gluten in a bowl!"

"No it's not!" Naruko countered "Ramen, with the many spices and herbs in the broth combined with the marvellous invention of noodles, easily outclasses Dango in every way!"

"Dango!"

"Ramen!"

"Dango!"

"Ramen!"

"DANGO!"

"RAMEN!"

Both of the kids were at their boiling points as they each provided their own compelling reasons. Mental sparks were flying, glaring contests were brewing, visual threats were being violently exchanged. No Doujustu were strong enough to resist the awesome might of the food lovers. If they were ninja, the whole elemental nations would have been levelled to nothing but ash and rubble. But that was in their minds. In the real world everything was just fine. Though the villagers did have a sudden urge to buy some Dango and ramen. Such is the might of Hashirama and Naruko

Smack!

"Ow!" Hashirama yelled "Anko-chan!"

"You should learn to be nice to girls Baka" She said

"Well you should learn how to be a girl Anko-chan!"

Smack Smack Smack

"Ok ok I give up!" He declared with his hands in the air

"Good. Now what did we learn today?"

"To be nice to girls" He sighed. Seeing Hashirama told of and him looking like a complete fool Naruko couldn't hold it in any more

"Hahahahahahaha!" She cried at Hashirama's expense. Said boy whipped his head around and glared at her

"What are you laughing at?" he growled

"You" She said as her laughter died down into a small giggle. She pointed at his ramen bowl which was hardly touched "So…You gonna eat that?"

Hashirama looked at it and shrugged to himself. Then he moved it in front of Naruko and said "You can have it if you want"

Naruko lit up like a light bulb "Thanks Hashirama-kun!" Then she leaned in and kissed him on the cheek. His face grew so red it would have put Hinata to shame, before flashes of light appeared at the edge of his line of sight. The two kids turned their heads, with Naruko's lips not moving from his cheek, and saw all three adults wielding a camera each.

"Awwww! You two are so cute together!" Giggled the girl behind the counter

Konoha rocked as a voice rang out into the sky "OH HELL NO!"

"I hate that girl! She ruined my life!" Hashirama yelled as he walked through the empty park with the sun hanging above. Thanks to her he would have to put up with that awful taste in his mouth forever. He took out his small wallet and checked if he had any money left…it was as empty as Naruko's ramen bowl…Oh kami! He's making similes with her now?! Three hours ago he was happy not knowing the blond but now he wished he slept in or something. Sure he could have left her for the mob but he could never do that…But now it seems very tempting. No he wouldn't do that…But he would be sure to get revenge.

"I so need to prank someone right now" He grinned "Now where and who should I prank…maybe a ninja? Nah too hard…How about my future teachers? Yes this is gonna be a blast…Heh heh heh I'm so awesome"

"Hey can I come with ya?!"

"Ah!" Hashirama span around and saw Naruko walking behind him. He pointed right in her face "WHERE DID YOU COME FROM?!"

"Uh I followed you Duh" She said like it was common knowledge

"WHY ARE YOU FOLLOWING ME?!"

"Do you always scream like that?" Naruko picked her ear

"ANSWER ME!"

"Fine… It's because…You're my only friend…" She said looking down at her feet. Suddenly Hashirama calmed down-which did not happen often "Plus I like your name"

"What do you mean?" He asked ignoring the last part. Everyone liked his name. He would walk into a shop, say his name and he would be treated like a prince. That's why he got into pranks, to even out his reputation. He was Hashirama, prankster and holder of the shodai's name. Now the village is neutral towards him.

"The whole village hates me…and I don't have any friends except you" She grinned a very foxy grin as she rubbed the back of her head "So can I come you?"

Well she did follow me and didn't get caught…Wait. Am I actually considering this?

"…Sure" Hashirama said as he mind slapped himself "But you better not get us caught"

"Yey!" She jumped. She looked to where Hashirama stood with the intent on hugging him but he was not there. No, instead he was walking away very slowly, already regretting what he just did.

"You coming or what?" He yelled over his shoulder, again mentally beating the crap out of himself. Half of him wanted to scream in anger and frustration but another half of him was dancing with joy because he finally got himself a partner in crime. When Naruko caught up she spoke

"So what are we doing Hashirama-kun?"

"Can you stop calling me that? It's getting annoying"

"Oh sorry Hashi"

His eyebrow twitched "…I guess that's a bit better"

"You don't like it?" She asked, completely oblivious to his anger

"Not really. I'm not used to having nicknames"

"Oh…You can give me a nickname if you want"

…She did not just say that?! Yes! Yes she did! She walked right into that one!

"Really?" He croaked. She nodded "Ok let's see…" He took up a thinking pose to add effect. He took a deep deep breath and…. "There's shorty, blonde, Baka like Anko-chan calls me, women, whiskers, air head, twerp, Dango hater, did I say blonde? Walking vacuum cleaner and…" He turned and faced the fuming blond to his left with a grinning like a lunatic before continuing "…Fishcake"

The once peaceful girl Hashirama ate with at the ramen stand instantly evaporated. Now stood a small yet deadly maniac who had one thing in mind "IT'S MAELSTORM DAMN IT! MAELSTORM!"

Hashirama collapsed head first onto the hard ground. His lungs were burning, no, they were threatening to climb out of his mouth and die right in front of his eyes. Who would of thought that Naruko could run all around all of Konoha and keep going? Not him, that's for sure. It was only by planning and experience from running from crowds, did he manage to get away from her from time to time. But her god like stamina easily makes up for her stubbornness. That's what made it fun to play with her-if you could call it playing.

The slowly recovering boy tilted his head to the sky and saw it was nearly sun set but was not there just yet.

Wait He thought Were did Naruko go? She was right behind me…

"There you are you jerk!"

Speak of the devil He thought as he picked himself of the ground.

"Hey Naruko" He said lazily with a yawn "'Bout time you found me"

"Don't think you're off the hook!" She yelled "You have to say sorry!"

"And what if I don't eh? What are you gonna do then?"

"This!" Hashirama didn't have time to react when Naruko's foot collided with every man's weakness.

"…AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" He screamed as he fell to the ground, holding his groin. He was so going to block this day out of him memory

"Don't be a wuss Hashi. It can't hurt that much, can it?"

And she will never ever know He thought

"Come on Hashi. It's nearly sun set and I wanna show you something" She then grabbed Hashirama's leg and dragged his limp body towards kami knows where. It's not that Hashirama didn't like to be dragged around everywhere but going anywhere with Naruko was a signed death wish. So he kicked and screamed but it did not work. No. She only dragged harder. He even left claw marks in the cobblestone ground. Soon, the fighting and dragging came to an end when they stopped at a stair case that was outside and built into a cliff for some insane reason. I mean who would build a stair case on the side of a cliff?

"Ok, now we climb Hashi!" Naruko declared. Hashirama looked at the staircase with his eyebrows twitching madly.

Do I dear look up?...Yes, yes I do. His gaze raised up wards as he openly gaped at the height of the stair case "Are you kidding me! That thing is huge!"

"Come on Hashi. It's not that hard to climb. It will be easy" And oh how she was wrong

Half an hour later

"I…H-HATE…YOU" He said between gasps of air. During the long agonizing trip upwards, Hashirama found out that they were heading to the Hokages faces that were calved into the cliff in Konoha. Who knew that they built a stair case that leads to the top of the cliff? No one but Naruko by the looks of it.

It's not that hard to climb she said, It would be easy she said. If I ever find who ever built that bloody thing I swear…

"Come on Hashi. It's not far now" She said.

"I don't wanna" He moaned

"Well you're gonna!" She said before proceeding to kick Hashirama

"Ow ow ow ow ow ow" He mumbled between kicks. This continued for a whole 'nother minute "You (kick) had (kick) enough (kick kick) yet?"

"Just follow me Hashi. The sun set it nearly over" She growled

"You brought me here for a plain old sun set?" He asked as he got back on his feet

"Just come on" she rolled her eyes before grabbing Hashirama by the hand and led her to one of the Hokages' heads "This is my most favourite spot in the whole in Konoha…other than Ichiraku ramen" She giggled then sat down pointing to the horizon "My head is gonna be calved into this cliff one day. That's my dream. To be Hokage and to be recognised"

"Hokage? Yea whatever" He said before sitting down beside Naruko who was completely captivated by the setting sun "That dream in nowhere near as good as mine"

"What is your dream?" That was when he reached inside his jacket's secret compartment and pulled out two Dango sticks

"I'm gonna open a Dango restaurant and eat as much as I can for the rest of my life!.. You want one?" He nudged the girl.

"Thanks Hashi!" She joyfully took it and stated to nibble on the treat. Hashirama snickered as he stated to eat his Dango and looked at the sun set which Naruko seems to love so much. To say he was amazed was an understatement. Before him was a gorgeous sight of the sun sinking on the horizon, he had to admit that it was a pretty darn impressive view. It's not that he could explain it in words but it looked as though the light was having one final stand agenised its eternal enemy. The normally white and faint yellow light the sun was used to admitting was burning golden orange and red. The plain white clouds a certain Nara likes to watch were given colour as it melded with the new light. A truly marvellous sight…not that Hashirama would ever say that but inside he knew he would keep this memory forever.

During the sun setting however, he felt like they were being watched. Due to his experience with running and evading genin and chuunin from his pranks, Hashirama developed a danger sense when it came to ninja. Right now he felt like they were keeping tabs on him, that much he knew. Although they could be watching Naruko. It would make some sense since the girl almost got mulled by a mob. But if so, they would of attempted to help her, or at least made their presence known.

Wait… Is that how Anko-chan found me earlier today? Was she watching Naruko? Is that how she knew her?

"You know Hashi" Naruko began, interrupting Hashirama's train of thought completely "This is why my favourite colour is orange"

"I don't see what the big deal is" He lied "It's just a sun set"

"But I like it" She asserted "And I think your gonna start liking sun sets very soon one way or another"

"What's that?" he said looking at the shorter girl who had an evil gleam in her eye

"Oh. Nothing" She said innocently

"Right…"

"Wait you have pink eyes!" She giggled. A tick formed on Hashirama's forehead

"You have whiskers!" He retorted

"Hay Hashi? You wanna sleep at my house tonight?"

"You have a house?" He said with moderate surprise

"Yip" she whispered, her boundless energy receding for the day "Jiji-san gave it to me"

"…I don't think I can Fishcake. I have to get back to the orphanage" Her eye lids started to close as she forced out her last sentence for the day

"Don't call me…Fishcake" She mumbled before falling asleep on his shoulder. Funny. The still and lightly snoring Naruko of the night was the complete opposite of the loud and hyperactive Naruko of the day. Kinda balances it all out. Kami knows the girl needs some balancing.

"Ahem"

Hashirama turned around and saw a dog masked ANBU standing there with his hands in his pockets. He was surprised. Not because he wasn't expecting them, which he did, he was surprised at his gravity defying sliver hair. Makes you wonder if it's natural.

"What?" Hashirama asked

"I'm here to take her home" he said plainly. Hashirama sighed. At last his job is over. After forsaking his Dango lunch/dinner and being dragged around town like a doll, he could finally rest… but he was curious and if he could prove his theory then he shall rest

"Why are you watching Naruko? And why didn't you help her with the mob earlier today?"

Kakashi's was mildly surprised when the little boy he had been watching for the whole day spoke as if he known that he, Kakashi, an ANBU, was there the whole time. He had heard of his small yet hilarious pranks throughout the city and his notorious reputation among the gennin and chunnin but detecting an ANBU? That was something entirely different.

Tch tch tch Naruko, you seem to meet some interesting people He mused

"So?" Hashirama asked still holding the sleeping Naruko "Why didn't you help her. Kami knows she needed it"

"I'm ANBU" Kakashi said "I know when I'm not needed"

"…Are you saying that you knew I was going to help?"

Kakashi rubbed the back of his head sheepishly "Well it's kind of obvious when you yelled 'if you're gonna hurt her then you have to go through me'"

"Oh" He grumbled at his slip up "before you take her home. Can you answer a question for me?"

"Sure" The ANBU shrugged

"Does this happen often? Do people always attack Naruko?"

"…Yes. But someone as young you shouldn't worry about those things"

"But she's my friend. Protecting friends basically comes in the job description"

Kakashi couldn't help but smile under his mask when he said that. The girl badly needed a friend who had loyalty like Hashirama has-even though it looked like he was going crazy. The Hokage told him not to talk or even contact her in hopes that she could have a normal childhood. His hopes had been misplaced as the girl was the pariah of village. Kakashi always wanted to help the daughter of his sensei but the only way he could speak to her was to be integrated into the main shinobi force. Unfortunately that would mean taking on a genin team and doing D rank missions for a month…Maybe he could take on Naruko's team when she graduates the exam.

"If you don't mind' Kakashi resumed "I should take her home, if you don't mind"

Hashirama eyed the ANBU a little bit more. He did not trust the veteran ANBU even if they were all loyal to the village. His body told him he could trust the ANBU as he sounded a bit concerned for the girl. But his mind said that shinobis are masters of deception…In the end he decided that He should trust him. He is an ANBU after all. They report only to the Hokage…Wait. Naruko said something about her Jiji giving her a house. Could she be protected by the Hokage?

"Ok" Hashirama said before lifting Naruko up bridle style and handed her to the ANBU

Hm. Odd. For someone who would eat twice her body mass in ramen Naruko is pretty light Hashirama thought

"You better take care of her ANBU" Hashirama said.

Kakashi nodded "If I may say so myself you two look cute together" he said before disappearing in a swirl of wind and leaves

"WE ARE NOT CUTE!" Hashirama yelled to no one in particular. It was only after thirty minutes of ranting did Kinto realise that he was on the mountain alone.
