Sarutobi's POV
I was sitting at my desk, smoking my pipe and doing paperwork when an Anbu appeared before me. I recognized him as the one I sent out 30 minutes ago to watch over Rika and gave him a questioning look. "Why are you here, shouldn't you still be observing the girl." The Anbu bowed, "Hokage-sama, the subject had a strange creature in her backpack and I highly suspect that she has a bloodline." This almost made me choke on my pipe, the girl has a bloodline! "Are you certain, what makes you so sure about this?" "When I activated my byakugan I saw that she had a strange source of energy besides her chakra and it could rival a jounin's chakra level." Once the Anbu finished explaining I just sat there flabbergasted. This girl had an unknown powerful bloodline and she was harboring a strange creature to her civilian school!
I snapped out of my shock and regained a serous expression. "I want you to inform the council that there's a meeting about this at 8, dismissed." The Anbu disappeared with a shunshin and I massaged my temples, what am I going to with this girl. Once the council hears about her having a bloodline they will be fighting tooth and nail for the rights to adopt her. I don't like that I have to inform the council about this, but the political backlash of me trying to hide this would be too sever. The Anbu who I ordered to tail her was a Hyuga and I knew that he would inform his clan, even without my consent.
Its pretty clear that she can't continue going to civilian school, the council would blow a gasket. I'm going to have her transferred to the ninja academy tomorrow, but first I have to make sure that this unknown creature is not a threat. I signaled for an Anbu to reveal himself, " I want you to go to the civilian school and watch over Rika and the animal in her backpack. If you see the animal about to attack someone I want you to step in, and if necessary kill it." "Hia Hokage-sama" and the Anbu disappeared in a burst of speed.
Rika's POV
Finally school ended for the day and I successfully hid Sparky's presence. There may have been a few close calls but we managed to push through it. I waited until I reached the training field before letting Sparky out of my backpack and I gave him a hug. "Did I do good mommy" Sparky had a hopeful look on his face. I kissed him on the check, "you did great, and as a reward were going to play." "Yay!" Sparky jumped up cheering.
We spent most of the day running around, having lots of fun and I even trained him a little. His current moves were thunder shock, thunder wave, thunder punch, and volt tackle. I was happy with his current move set and planned to have him perfect these moves before teaching him anything else. As I was about to put Sparky back in my bag to go home an Anbu appeared before me.
I stood there in shock and Sparky glared at the Anbu with sparks coming off his cheeks. "Hokage-sama ordered me to bring you and your pet to the council meeting." I petted Sparky, trying to calm him down and picked him up. "It's going to be ok, lets go see what they want." Internally I was screaming in frustration in my head. How the hell did the Hokage find out! Sparky hugs me tightly and I take a deep breath. The Anbu put his hand on my shoulder and used shunshin to get us all the way to council chamber.
Once we got there I was put into the middle of the room and everyone was staring at Sparky and me. The council was compromised of clan heads, the Hokages advisers, Danzo, nobles and most importantly the Hokage. "Do you know why you were called here today," The Hokage questioned me. I prayed that this wasn't about my bloodline and that they wouldn't try to take Sparky away from me. "Because I brought Sparky to school today without asking the teacher for permission." The Hokage released a tired sigh, "Well that's one of the reasons. It has come to my attention that you have a powerful bloodline." I froze in place looking like a deer caught in headlights and the Hokage narrowed his eyes at me. Shit, they found out about my bloodline. There's no way they'll let me stay a civilian now.
People started whispering and the Hokage stared at me, "Would you be so kind as to explain what it does and give us a little demonstration." Even though he asked me politely I knew that he would not let me leave until I explained everything I knew.
"W-Well, it allows me to use multiple elements and it was how I created Sparky. I don't think it's a good idea for me to use it here. I don't want to damage this room or hurt anybody." Everyone gave me looks of disbelief while the Hokage walked over to the wall and flipped a switch. As soon as he did that part of the wall behind his seat parted and a huge TV came out. "How about this, one of my Anbu will take you to a training field that has video cameras and we'll watch you demonstrate your bloodline from here, sound good." All I could do was nod my head and an Anbu came and shunshin me to the training field.
I sat Sparky on a low tree branch and handed him the uneaten apple from my bag. "Stay here, I just have to demonstrate my abilities real quick". "Ok mommy" I turned to the Anbu, "could you give me some targets to aim at." The Anbu created a shadow clone and pointed to it. "Thanks" he didn't respond to me and I got myself in a ready position. "Ice beam" a strong beam of ice shot out of my mouth and froze the shadow clone in ice and it dispelled.
I look over to the Anbu expectantly and he made another clone. I proceeded to demonstrate one move for each Pokémon type on the Anbu's clones and used the following; thunderbolt, shadow ball, water gun, ember, razor leaf, gust, stone edge, and flash cannon. I decided not to show all of the types as some would be too similar to another type and others wouldn't be considered an element by this world's standard. For my last move I used "psychic" to levitate the clone off the ground and threw it violently into a tree. I walk over to the tree and gently picked up a droopy-eyed Sparky and looked at the Anbu. "Done, what now". He came over to me and put his hand on my shoulder to shunshin us back to the council room. Once I was back in there everyone was staring at me with wide eyes and whispering excitedly to each other.
I shifted nervously in my position and Sparky yawned loudly. "Um, Hokage-sama may I please go home now. It's way past Sparky's bedtime and I have school tomorrow."
The Hokage got everyone's attention with a cough, "Yes, but you are going to be transferred to the ninja academy tomorrow. If Sparky behaves you can take him with you as your nin-animal. I'll have one of my shinobi escort you there in the morning, goodnight." He had a shinobi show me out of the building and I just stood there, looking down at me feet. I couldn't stop the tears from pouring down my face and quickly used "teleport" to transport myself home. Not wanting to wake up Sparky with my crying I held it in and place him on a pillow. I went to lie down on my couch and silently cried into the cushion.
Dam it! I don't want to be a shinobi! I don't want to be a glorified killer! I want to be a civilian who only has to worry about finding a job and paying taxes. Not a shinobi who is constantly looking over their shoulder, knowing that they could be killed at any moment.
I sat up wiping tears and snot off my face and started to brainstorm. "Its too late to change things now. All I can do now is look for a legal loophole so I can quit being a shinobi as soon as possible." I needed to learn all the laws and rules of being a shonobi and find a legal way to escape service. I know one way to do this is to become pregnant, but I don't want to think about kids until I'm at least 20 years old. Shinobi normally graduate from the academy at 12 years old so I would have to remain a shinobi for 8 or more years. I would probably be forced to kill within that time span so that option is out. The only other way out is to cripple myself and I'm definitely not doing that.
I shook my head. "I should stop fretting over this for now and get some sleep. I have 4 years to figure something out." I got up and went to the kitchen to make myself some instant ramen for dinner and snuck into bed. Well, at least some good is going to come out of this. I get to learn how to use chakra and I don't have to hide Sparky in my backpack anymore.
Sarutobi's POV
Once Rika left the council exploded into excited chatter, happy that Konoha had a new bloodline. This went on for a couple of minutes before Danzo banged his cane on the floor getting everyone's attention. "While its great news that Konoha has a new bloodline there is another important matter that needs to be addressed." I internally sigh, knowing where he was going with this. "The girl's current living arrangements are unacceptable, it would be dangerous for her to live in a insecure apartment all by herself. I would like to take her under my wing, where she would be protected and trained as a proper shinobi." After Danzo finished that statement everyone started yelling at the top of their lungs saying that they would be better fit to take care of Rika.
This is way worst than I first thought it would be. If I let one clan adopt Rika the others will call me out on favoritism. I tap my fingers on my desk trying to think of a solution before it clicks in my head "Quite!" Everyone immediately stopped yelling and looked at me. "Since bloodlines are a shinobi matter only the clan heads will be qualified to adopt her." This caused the nobles to grumble angrily and Danzo gave me an annoyed look. "Would all the clan heads who wish to adopt her please step forward." The clan heads that stepped forward were Tsume Inuzuka, Haishi Hyuga, Shikaku Nara and surprisingly enough Tsunade Senju.
Everyone was shocked that Tsunade would want to adopt Rika and I couldn't exclude myself. Getting over my shock I continued, " just picking one of you would be seen as favoritism so I came up with a solution. Rika will spend 2 weeks living with each of your clans and she will decide who she wants to stay with." They looked like they wanted about to argue, but they stayed silent. "First she will go with the Hyuga, second will be Inuzuka, third will be Nara, and last will be Senju, is everyone ok with this." They reluctantly nodded and I released a sigh, "Good, meeting adjourned" I banged my gavel and people slowly made there way out.
I was about to leave when Tsunade cut me off at the exit. "Sensei please allow me to adopt Rika, the other clans just want her to boost their own prestige. If she was with me I would never use her as a political pawn and actually do what's best for her." I grimaced, knowing what she said had some truth to it. "I'm sorry but I can't take back what I said in the meeting. The political ramifications would be disastrous, and I can't risk alienating 3 major clans." Tsunade frowns and nods, "All you can do is make sure that she feels more comfortable living with you than the other clans. Why do you wish to adopt her in the first place, your concern for her wellbeing can't be the only reason?" I saw a flash of emotions cross her face. "I'm way too old to have children and I always wanted to have a family. I see this as my only chance to do that and pass on the Senju legacy." Tsunade left after saying that and I stared sadly at her retreating figure. I've always known that she wanted to have children but she gave up on trying once Dan died. Maybe adopting Rika will be her salvation and she will finally fill that void in her life and find true happiness.
