Lord Hokage is sitting behind his desk, smoking his pipe and reading a random scroll.
Enjoying the silence for once ... He is a busy man, so these moments are rare.
It is not long before there`s a knock heard on his door.
He sighs, well at least he had a few minutes of silence.
"Come in!" He taps his hat and waits for whoever disturbed his peace.
Azami, Kakashi and Guy step trough the door.
Azami scans her surroundings while Minichi crawls around her neck.
Her eyes stop at the Old Man behind a big wooden desk.
The Hokage smiles at her. "Hello there little one." He then averts his eyes to Kakashi and Guy.
"What can i do for you?"
She blinks. Is this the Hokage? He looks very nice. He has a very friendly face. But i don't understand what he has in his mouth tough.
Kakashi looks at Azami and then back at the Hokage.
"Good day Hokage. We found this little girl in the forest with her friend ..." Kakashi pauses and looks at the nervous little red pandas around Azami's neck.
The Hokage chuckles at this.
Kakashi shakes his head and continues "Well she said she has been living in the forest since she was five and that's she does not know anything about her parents."
The Hokage looks at the girl, now a bit more serious. "Kakashi, Guy, you are both dismissed. I'll Decide what were going to do with the girl."
Kakashi and Guy both nod, then bow, they both leave trough the door. Kakashi gives a closed-eyed smile to Azami. Azami waves. "Thanks for everything one eyed man!"
The Hokage smiles at the girl. She has a really naive looking aura.
"So, you have been living in the forest for a very long time little girl. Whats your name?"
Azami mimics what Kakashi did When He introduced himself and points at herself. "I am Azami." Then she points at Minichi. "This here is Minichi."
The Hokage chuckles. "Well nice to meet you both Azami and i wonder, do you remember your last name? If you do, the Possibility of finding something about your past and where you came from is allot bigger."
Azami's eyes drift or to the silver necklace on her neck.
"I-I do have a last name i think ..." She Reaches behind her neck, takes her necklace and drops it on the desk of the Hokage.
The Hokage eyes narrow. "I see, so your last name is Kurosawa. I'll try to find some information about your past and where your from. Maybe i can also find some info about your parents."
He gives gives back the necklace.
"Azami, i have a proposal for you. I also think its very dangerous for a girl of your age to walk around in the forest. How about you live in this village and you can go to the ninja academy to meet people of your age . Is that okay with you? "
Azami frowns. "What is a ninja academy?"
The Hokage laughs. "I see .. of course .. you've lived in the forest for as long as you can remember. So its only natural That you don't know what a ninja academy is or what a ninja is . Lucky for you, the academy starts in a two days, on Monday (its weekend).You will be put in a class of kids your age.
They are going to graduate soon, but I'll let someone come to you to learn the basics about our way of living and ninjas. "
Azami Nods. "I'll accept your offer if Minichi can go with me to the ninja academy-thing."
He pinches his nose bridge. "As long as he doesn't cause any trouble. I'll let someone take you to your new apartment. Tomorrow I'll send someone who will help you with clothing and ninja gear. I'll make sure your apartment has some food in the fridge. But When you run out of food , you'll have to go to the shop. Do we have a deal, Miss Kurosawa. "
"Yes!" Azami squeals and punches her fist in the air. Minichi does the same and also makes a squealing sound.
He snaps his fingers and there is a puff of smoke. A guy with spiked black hair and a bandage on his nose appears. "Lord Hokage." He bows. "Kotetsu, take this little girl to apartment 102."
He nods and looks over at Azami. "Follow me."
Walking out of the door she waves at the Hokage. "Byeeeeee."
The Hokage Chuckles. Strange girl.
