Chapter 2 [Accepted]
'Who are you?' asked a man. He has a long bandage over his nose from his left cheek to his right and I realized it was… Kotetsu! He was in charge of the main gate with his partner Izumo!
'Er….' I said. Then a thought occurred in my head, I speak Japanese? I understand Japanese? I think it must be part of the wish.
'Who are you exactly…' Kotetsu said bending down and trying to take a closer look at her.
'Er….One sec…' I slowly stood up and found my hair in the way and unconsciously tuck it behind my ear, only then did I notice my attire! It was changed completely! I had on ninja sandals, a tight sleeveless shirt, which complemented my body, curves, and a forest green vest hoodie with black tight tights and a skirt, that matches it. I later noticed my hair, it changed into a deep dark brown colour and was flowing down my shoulders neatly, my fringes were mostly tucked behind my ear; saving the admiration of my anime form I straighten my spine and said in a more confident voice, ' I am here to see the Hokage.'
'What is your name? And what is the reason of wanting to see the Hokage?' Kotetsu asked further.
But suddenly I felt my head started getting lighter and a voice came into her head. 'Wow, she's pretty good looking.
Rin head shot up and looked Kotetsu straight in the eye.
'I wish to be a part of Konoha.' Rin stated ignoring (obviously) his thought, ' and my name is…. Uzumaki Rin.'
Kotetsu glanced over at his partner and gave a slight nod, then turned back at her and said: 'Very well, I'll lead you to the Hokage's office.'
As I walked through the village, I was still in too shock to believe that my wish was granted. I was still amazed. After a few 10 blocks we finally arrived at the Hokage office.
'This is it.' Kotetsu said
'Wow…'
'Pretty cool huh…' Kotetsu said proud of the Hokage's office himself.
'This is plain awesome…' Rin gasped.
'Ok, enough admiring let's go to see the Hokage, you are lucky that she's almost free today. 'Kotetsu said.
'But won't I make her more busy by filling in paper work for a new citizen?' Rin questioned innocently.
'Well…you do have a point… but anyways let's just go see her and I can get back to my post, Izumo will think I'm slaking.' Kotetsu said jokingly.
'I'm sure he'll understand…' Rin said, still admiring the Hokage tower.
'The Hokage can be quite scary at times, so watch out… but you look well-mannered enough to avoid making her furious.' Kotetsu said observing Rin once again.
'I'll live.' Rin said.
'Let's get going then.'
Kotetsu gently knocks on the door and waited for the Hokage's permission of entrance.
'Enter.' The Hokage shouted and Kotetsu opened the door slowly and greeted the Hokage by bowing.
There Rin saw the Hokage, Tsunade and Shizune in the Hokage's office, everything was exactly where it should be, and it's just like the anime itself. Perfect!
'Good afternoon, Hokage-sama. I've brought… someone that requests to be part of the village.' Kotetsu said.
The Hokage looked up from her desk and eyed Rin.
'I see…' the Hokage murmured.
'Hello Hokage sama.' Rin said bowing.
'What is your name?' Tsunade asked, not wanting to beat around the bush. While her metallic golden eyes eyed her up and down again.
'Uzumaki Rin.'
'You are part of the Uzumaki clan?' Tsunade asked surprised, '… aren't you suppose to have red hair?'
'I do have red hair.' Rin replied in a rather confident voice and then strangely but automatically focused on her hair. Hearing gasped around the room she confirmed that her hair has been fully changed.
The Hokage along with her fellow right-hand women Shizune continued to stare at her hair.
'Er…. Sorry to interrupt but I need to get back to my post…' Kotetsu said.
'Oh… right… you are dismissed' the Hokage said snapping out of her gaze.
'Thank you.' Kotetsu bowed and gave Rin a reassuring look and a smile before walking out of the door.
'You want to be a citizen of Konoha yes?' the Hokage asked after Kotetsu left.
'Yes.'
'What can you do?' Tsunade asked in her serious tone, 'what benefit can you bring to the village?'
I was about to answer but somehow felt chakra signatures, which lead Rin to get distracted by it. The chakra signatures however were none other than Naruto and Jiraiya.
'What is it?' Tsunade asked.
Rin snapped out of her gaze and reported while proving her worth: 'Uzumaki Naruto and Jiraiya, your formal comrade has returned after their three years of training.'
Tsunade, judging by the looks of it, she was impressed, amazed and somewhat doubtful.
'How do you know about all this details?' Shizune asked, interrupting Tsunade.
'I sensed their chakra signatures when they reached the front gates of Konoha, then I went in your brain to find out who exactly are they and determine their profile and also find out why they were gone for so long.' Rin explained.
'Is that your only specialty?' Tsunade asked, again doubtful.
'No.' Rin replied, again with the confident tone. Where is she getting that?
'Then what else can you do?' Tsunade asked.
'I have mastered all five elements and am able to use them without hand signs, I also can read minds as freely as I want to because my father is part of the Yamanaka clan.'
'All five?' Tsunade asked raising a brow.
'Yes… my mother is also part of the Uzumaki clan, that is why my blood and chakra flow helps me combine my powers of the Uchiha, Yamanaka and Hyuuga properly. My mother has told me to figure out about my powers on my own… and so far I've mastered the elements and my natural ability.
Tsunade and Shizune both gasped at the word 'Rinnegan' but Rin continued on explaining about her powers and is still not very sure why she knows all of this. And also despite the fact that she knows Kakashi is right outside the window.
'With my version of the Rinnegan, I can freely copy or absorb my opponents powers, knowledge or talents. Although these things are said to be impossible to copy… I can. And I believe I will benefit a lot to the village and also in the fields… and sorry for looking deeper into your mind but I might be able to help bring Uchiha Sasuke back.'
Tsunade was still trying to digest everything that I said to her but before she could say anything there was a knock on the door.
The door flew open and in came the in-famous Uzumaki Naruto and Jiraiya.
'Hello baa-chan! Long time no see!' Naruto yelled at the top of his lungs.
'Quite down Naruto! Let me think.' Tsunade said and rested her head on her hands with her elbows leaning on the table.
'Ah…?'
'Now what do we have here?' Jiraiya began as he walked in front of Rin and observed her.
'Hello Jiraiya sensei, nice to meet you.' I said politely.
Jiraiya was about to say something when Tsunade interrupted.
'She wants to be part of the village… and I would consider her Jounin rank for this… but before I could officially put you under missions you have to prove your strength and familiarize with the place first.' Tsunade said finally lifting up her head.
'A new citizen? Cool!' Naruto yelled, 'Hey there! Welcome to Konohagakure the best village ever!'
'Hello.' Rin said and gave him a small smile.
'What's your name by the way?' Naruto asked.
'Uzumaki Rin.'
'Uzumaki…' Naruto hesitated for a while but he managed to pull through, 'Are we family then?' he screamed excitingly.
'I think so…' Rin said, 'but I think it would be better if we don't leave your old sensei out the window too long shall we.' Rin said this rather loudly so he can hear but of course, that's the point.
Kakashi came through the window and landed gracefully on his toes into the Hokage's office.
'You must be a very sensitive tracker I see…' Kakashi said as he too eyed her up and down.
'Yes indeed… since you already eavesdropped on the whole conversation I won't need to explain further won't I?' Rin said rather too professionally, and it was weird.
'Explain what?' Naruto asked.
'Enough with the chit chattering.' The Hokage interrupted, 'Lucky you, I know an apartment not so far from Kakashi's, but in fact it's just above his. So you could go and ask for an advice or two. You can stay there. '
'Thank you Hokage-sama.' Rin said as she bowed politely.
