Chapter 02.
"A tail of 2 Uzuzmaki's, your father's WHO?"
DARKNESS SWIRLED THROUGHOUT KANAKA'S MIND, as a maniacal laughter echoed in his mind.
'SHUT UP, YOU BASTARD!' he thought. But the laughter continued on, until it slowly faded out. (WEAK CHILD.
Kanaka slowly awoke in a daze. It took a minute for his eyes to come into focus, and adjust to the darkness. While still suffering from double vision, from the blow delivered to him, by Tsunade.
"Goddamn! That blonde bitch was strong! If it weren't for those huge……JUTSUS of hers, I'd swear she was a guy"
He closes his eyes, and takes deep breaths, to make the double vision past. Once past it, he looks around in the darkness. "Now that's past, I can get the fuck outta here"
But, when he tries to stand up, realized that something was admist.
"What the hell"
He then realizes that he has been tied to a chair.
"You have got to be kidding me! Tied to a fucking chair! What type of bullshit is this!" As he looks around the room, he quickly realizes the trouble he's in store for.
"An interrogation room? You can't be serious!" "Oh yes we are"
The room light come on, as the room door opens up. And a man, wearing a trench coat & skull cap walks in. he walks up and stand in front of Kanaka.
"How ya doing kid? The name's Ibuki. Morino Ibuki. I'm Konoha's chief interrogation specialist. You'll be dealing with me for the next few hours or so"
"Is that so, scar face?" Kanaka jokes, noting the man's heavily scarred face. Ibuki simply laughs as he leans in closer to Kanaka. A split second later, Ibuki unleashes a hard back hand slap across Kanaka's face.
"My my," Kanaka says, "aren't we touchy"
Ibuki removes his cap, revealing his heavily scarred head.
"You see all these scars, kid? I got them all, protecting someone I loved, from rival nin. I love this village, and its inhabitants. So much so, that I'd give my life for it, or yours. So…..I suggest, that you answer all the questions I ask, or the only way you're leaving here, is via funeral"
He grabs Kanaka by the throat.
"Namely……..YOURS"
Kanaka simply rolls his eyes.
"Look tough guy, all I wanna do is meet with the Hokage. That's it"
The statement made Ibuki chuckle.
"You think that we'd let her, without so much as a proclamation from your village? What do take us for here in Konoha, BAKAS"
"Well…..I did get by your guards this morning, as if they were kids. And also, I used a child's prank to get by them! And, you know what? I'm getting tired of all theses fucking games you guys are trying to pull. Why do you keep calling the Hokage a HER? It is HIM, when referring to males!" "Shows what you know." Ibuki says. "The Hokage's the lady you knocked over and felt up. Who then politely knocked you into the middle of next week. Now, who the hell were you expecting"
"Fine then." Kanaka said, now pissed. "I guess I've got the wrong title. The MAN I'm looking for, goes by the title of THE YELLOW FLASH! Now, can I see him"
Ibuki's eyes widen, and his jaw drops a bit. "YYY-Yellow Flash? No. that can't be! That just can't be!" "Can't be WHAT, SCARFACE!" Kanaka asks.
Ibuki takes a step back and rubs his mouth with his hand, trying to regain his composure.
"Ummm. Sit tight kid. I'll be right back" he dashes outta the room.
"And just where the hell am I pose to go?" Kanaka asks, as he watches Ibuki quickly leave. "Man, what is with this village? What the hell's the matter with him? He look like he just saw a ghost or something. What a day this has been, so far"
Tsunade sat behind her desk in her office. Looking at all the Jounin that were gathered in there. "I had Shizune summon you all here for an emergency meeting. I must inform you all that a stranger was apprehended today. Illegally entering Konoha. This intruder wore all black clothes, with a hooded trench coat. A black skull cap, and a mask. That made it hard to identify him. He also wore a forehead protector, slanted over his right eye"
She cuts her eyes to her right.
"……as a matter of fact. His appearance, is very much similar to yours……HAYATE KAKASHI"
"What can I say? I'm a trend setter."
A Class Jounin, and all around bad ass, Hayate Kakashi strolls in. "However, I wouldn't dare wear a skull cap. It would be a bit much"
Non-chalantly, he walks up to Tsunade's desk.
"Yo. Sorry I'm late. I was pondering the meaning of life. And I lost track of time"
"Mmm-hmmm." Tsunade says to herself. "This is what I get for letting you have the latest copy of Jiraya's book. Read your books on your own time, and don't let it interfere with village affairs." Tsunade looks down at the report, but quickly looks back at Kakashi. "Oh. And if you know what's good for you, you won't be late again"
Her tone of voice was threatening, as she cracked her knuckles. Kakashi laughs nervously, as he scratches his head. "Hai, Hokage-sama."
Tsunade returns to the report, looking it over carefully.
She was about to comment on the report when Ibuki bursts into her office.
"HOKAGE-SAMA!" all of the other jounins quickliy look at Ibuki, who looks like he has seen a ghost.
"This had better be really important, Ibuki." Tsunade says as she sighs, not looking up from the report.
"Forgive me Hokage-sama. But…umm…it's just that…..the intruder has requested to speak to the Hokage"
"I am busy right now Ibuki. I don't have time to ….."
"He wants to see the 4th HOKAGE"
Needless to say, that shocked all of the jounins in the room.
'Was this some kind of sick joke?' All of the jounins thought.
After all, every village knew about the 4th's passing years ago.
"Ibuki," Tsunade said, now looking at Ibuki, "didn't you tell him that the 4th was dead"
"No, Hokage-sama. I came to tell you, because he requested for the 4th, via his nickname…..YELLOW FLASH. And he is very intent upon meeting him. As if he knows him. I thought that you should know at once. So you could figure out why"
Everyone stood in silence, shock and awe, awaiting her decision.
"Very well," she finally said rising to her feet, "take me to him. Everyone, please stay here." Grabbing her gambler's jacket, she followed Ibuki.
When Tsunade walked into the interrogation room, she noticed that the intruder was unresponsive. With his head down.
'Did Ibuki beat him unconscious'
Just then, Kanaka let out a loud snore, and then he began snoring some more. A snot bubble coming from his left nostril.
"How can he be sleeping, at a time like this?" she said softly to herself. She walked over & calmly kicked the chair over.
"WAKE UP"
Between the shouting, and the crash, Kanaka quickly wakes up and stand. Which he then recalls that he can't, because he's tied to the chair.
"OUCH! Damnit Scar face! What the hell…."
He then notices that it is Tsunade who is in the room, not Ibuki.
"Uhhh…..hi"
"Scar face, huh? Not very original. Ya know, it's not very nice to make fun of others, especially Konoha's chief interrogator. Anyway, Ibuki has informed me that you request an audience with the Yellow Flash. Tell me. Why should we grant that wish"
As she waited for his answer, Tsunade studied Kanaka's face.
His right eye was hidden, behind his forehead protector. But, his left eye, it was such a beautiful shade of blue, that she felt herself being drawn into it.
'Where? Where have I felt this feeling before'
It was then, a image of Uzumaki Naruto pops into her head.
'NARUTO! He's got the same eyes at Naruto. But, why is his right eye cov….'
"THE YELLOW FLASH IS MY FATHER"
Kanaka says loudly, snapping Tsunade outta her train of thought. Upon hearing that, her eyes widen in disbelief. As she gasped out loud.
"The…4th's son!" she stammered, trying to regain her composure. "He…He…..He had 2 SONS?" she rubbed her mouth for a moment. "I must excuse myself for a moment. Security will bring you to my office in a few minutes. Excuse me"
Tsunade leaves the room.
Seeing the door close & hearing the lock click, Kanaka simply stares up at the ceiling. "1st, I get knocked out for accidentally groping a hottie. Next, I get backhanded by Scar face. Like I'm his bitch or something. Now, some hottie freaks out over my father's nickname. Damn, this village is really weird"
A minute later, the door unlocks and opens. Two Anbu, 1 male & 1 female walk in.
"So, how's the family?" Kanaka says sarcastically as he looks up at the two.
The Anbu just shake their heads, as they sit his chair upright as they untie Kanaka.
Kanaka looks at their mask. The male wore one of a bird, and the female wore one of a cat. It made Kanaka chuckle.
"How ironic." "What was that?" the male Anbu asked. "Oh nothing." Kanaka says, turning his attention to the male Anbu. "But, just a warning, bird boy. You might wanna watch yer back around your counterpart. Never know when she'll decide that you're next meal." he begins chuckling.
The next thing he feels, was a blow to the back of his neck, and he was out cold.
"You know," the male Anbu started, "you didn't have to do that"
"He was bugging me." she replied.
A few minutes later…
Kanaka begins to stir awake, groaning in pain.
"Oh, my head. What happened?" he realized that he was once again tied up to a chair. "What the…..? OH MAN! NOT AGAIN!" He began to struggle against his bonds.
"Please stop struggling." Tsunade said. Kanaka looks around at Tsunade and his new surroundings. He notes all the jounins in the room. And while he was out, Tsunade had revealed the announcement about the intruder.
That he was the 4th Hokage's son.
"Ya know," Kanaka says, looking at Tsunade, "this village is really screwed up. All of you really need anger management. You knock me out for an accident(Tsunade glares at him). Scar face over there ties me up & tries to make me his bitch. And cat girl Anbu knocks me out for nothing. And apparently, you've got zombies, or human vegetables working for you. Because they haven't stop staring at me, nor have they moved an inch. This is far, the most fuc…."
A large puff of smoke appears above Kanaka's head.
From the smoke, appears a orange skinned frog, wearing a blue vest.
"Yo"
"Gamakichi." Tsuande says calmly. "What brings you here"
"The boss wanted me to inform you, that he and the brat will be returning in a few days"
"That's wonderful news." Tsunade says, with a smile upon his face.
"Well, that's all for now, later"
Gamakichi salutes, and disappears in a puff of smoke.
Tsunade turns her attention back to Kanaka, who has a puzzled look on his face.
"Was there a orange talking frog on my head a minute ago"
"Wearing a blue vest?" Tsuande says sarcastically. "Yep"
"Okay, that's it! I gotta get outta here. This village is way too damn weird! Even Yoshiko would find this place strange"
Focusing his chakra into his right hand, he creates his 'hand blade no jutsu', to cut himself free. A surprised look comes across Tsunade's face. Once the bonds were off, Kanaka stretches a bit, looking at the jounins. Who were preparing themselves, in case he would try to attack. "Oh sit your zombies asses down. I was just going to leave. Now," he turns to Tsuande, "Could you please return my weapons"
"And where will you go?" Tsuande says. "We'll be closing our main gates soon. And no other village will take you in." "Then I'll sleep in the woods. Not like I haven't done it before." he began strapping his weapons back on.
"Nonsense!" Tsunade says. "Let us run a blood test on you. And in the meantime, you can spend the night at my place." "But…Tsunade-sama." Shizune says, trying to interject, but Tsunade just waves her off.
"Are you coming on to me?" Kanaka says, confused by Tsunade's sudden generosity. The statement caused many of the jounins, including Kakashi, Asuma, Gai, Shikamaru's father, Ino's father, and Chouji's father to chuckle. Tsunade shot them a death glare, to shut them up.
"Anyways…." Kanaka continued, "tell my father, to meet me in the woods"
Kanaka's statement, caused everyone in the room, Tsunade as well, to bite their lip in sadness. 'Does this child not know his father's fate'
"Actually," Tsunade said, "in regards to your father. I would like to speak to you in private." "Why? What happened to him. And, who the hell are you"
"I am…I am…..I am the Hokage of this village, the leader if you will. My name is Tsunade." "YOU LIE!" Kanaka yells. "My father is the leader of this village! That's what my mother told me! He was suppose to come here and……"
"I am the 5th Hokage of this village. Your father was the 4th Hokage. He…He…..He died a little over 15 years ago"
Tsunade felt her throat go dry and heart skip a beat.
He didn't know, she thought to herself. He didn't know all this time. And to come all this way, only to find out that his father was…..
She looked around the room at the others.
The jounins cringed upon Tsunade telling Kanaka about the 4th, his father. Not knowing the stranger's next response.
"WHAT!" Kanaka said, his throat also going dry, as he tried to fight back the tears that threatened to begin running down his face. "But…HOW"
"15 years ago," Tsunade started, shaking her head lightly, "the legendary 9 tailed demon, KYUUBI, attacked this village. He sealed the demon away, using an experimental technique. That cost him his life." she bowed her head. "I'm sorry"
Kanaka stood there in shock, not saying a word. He walked over to the chair he had been tied to, gripping the back of it. His rage finally overcame him, as he slung the chair across the room into the wall, the chair shattered like glass. Causing everyone in the room to jump.
"2 years. 2 FUCKING YEARS! 2 years of traveling……FOR NOTHING"
He placed his hands on his waist. As he stood there crying, looking down at the floor.
Tsunade sighed, watching the young teen's anger consume him and explode.
"Will all of you excuse us, please?" she looked towards the jounins.
The jounins took their leave from the room. Tsunade rose from her chair, walked over to Kanaka & placed a hand on his shoulder.
"I am truly sorry for you Kanaka, I truly am. Listen, you look like you really need to rest. My house used to be an inn, before I moved into it. It has plenty of rooms. I can give you a room of your own. You are welcome to stay in Konoha as long as you want. Come tomorrow, we will introduce to the village. Okay by you"
"Yeah." Kanaka says softly.
Tsuande leads Kanaka out of her office, closing the door & locking it behind her.
