After the final war of the shinobi across the land, Konoha had once
again proven the most determined to survive. With armies led by the Hokage
herself, along with the aid of Gama-Sennin, the Hidden Village of the Leaf
and its allies vanquished once and for all the Sound, which had been
created to fuel Orochimaru's mad ambitions. The Snake, although gravely
wounded, had escaped and has been pursued by Anbu to this day, from every
country. Little was known of his subordinates other than that several were
taken in by other countries and became nin there.
Years later, after the retirement of Tsunade, it was time for a new Hokage to be chosen. Of course, among the top choices were Uzumaki Naruto, Hyuuga Neji, Uchiha Sasuke, and even Sarutobi Konohamaru. Tsunade however knew the best choice, and she did indeed choose Naruto as her replacement. Besides Konohamaru, the other ninja didn't want to be Hokage that badly.
Now, in Sunagakure, the Sand Village, a new Kazekage had taken stead there. Much like Naruto, after overcoming the challenges of the people there and harnessing the power that had been forced on him, Sabaku no Gaara was now the leader of his village. The alliance between Konoha and Sunagakure remain strong, for obvious reasons, and Konoha even gives financial aid to the village when it's dire to their survival.
In Kaminari, the Cloud, a shinobi from both Naruto and Gaara's past had taken up the name of Raikage, as a challenge from Naruto. He too bore a burden, but it remained unknown to many what it was. He had fought discrimination and hate, but he had overcome it after a little nudge from the two youkai-possessed shinobi. Keitaro, who rode lightning like a bird flew through the air. Kaminari was on friendly relations with both villages as well.
The other Hidden Villages remained on friendly ties, but none so strong as the three mentioned. The smaller nations would sometimes try to start war, but with no amazing shinobi and against a united power so great they were futile.
It had also become a custom for the five greatest shadows of all the great villages to meet once every three months, and to also hold a festival in one of the countries each year, in order to maintain friendly ties. This year, when the meeting came around, the festival would be held in Konoha. With this in mind, the villagers were bustling about and preparing for this. It was indeed a joyous event, and everyone looked forward to it immensely, especially when it rolled around to Konoha.
Now, a week until the big ceremony, a certain shadow flowed in from Wind country, to meet with a certain dancing flame...

A few notes about this...
I don't really know where I plan on going with this.. I just felt inspired after reading through an RP a few friends of mine and I partook in. Keitaro will be explained later on, and even though I generally don't like youkai- characters aside from the official ones, Keitaro speaks to me. He's not -mine-, per se, but I'm sure my friend won't mind.. Also, I'm planning on going over the entire Keitaro bit after I finish this ( if I finish this ) but there'll be enough about him to satiate any curious minds in the flashbacks that are to come.
About Konohamaru's name, I'm not sure just what his full name is. They called Sandaime 'Sarutobi', he looks similar to Asuma, whose name is Sarutobi Asuma, so I kind've put that together myself. It may be wrong, but it's a cool idea anyway.
As with all of my stories so far, aside from a couple of one-shots, this will be subject to me forgetting or just dropping the idea. Oh well, sue me.
