LC; Time for more rules! This time in Kakashi-sensei's POV!
Naruto; Why him?
LC; I thought it would be interesting since he was so obsessed about rules earlier in life.
Sasuke; She's got a point.
Naruto; True.
LC; Enough of this mindless idiocy, on to my story!
Naruto; Wait, how does this qualify as a story?
Sasuke; Yeah, it's just a bunch of rules and people's opinions.
LC;...What am I supposed to call it?
Both; We got no idea.
Disclaimer; I do not own Naruto. I own the many rules listed here though, because I invented them. HA! Take that Kishimoto!
Chapter 4; Varied rules, their hypocrisy.
Rule #3; A shinobi's first loyalty is to their kage.
First loyalty to their kage, and if that kage died and was replaced with another, would they be forced to be just as loyal to that one as well.
Kakashi has seen the changes from Sandaime, to Yondaime, to Sandaime, to Godaime, and then to Rokudaime.
He looked up to the blonde girl, no woman, accepting the hat and pondered the rule some more.
There wasn't much point in this rule, because times kept changing. One day, maybe shinobi would vanish from the world, but this rule might live on in some musty old handbook. Times change, people are born, the grow up, and then they die.
There wasn't much point in being loyal other than just for the sake of it. After all, he would listen to them all, but he was loyal to only one.
And she was standing up there, looking down at him with her hundred watt smile, her blonde hair free in the air.
Rule #69; All non-village shinobi are to be exterminated on sight.
This rule basically meant that if one were to find a young boy or girl holding ninja skills, but never trained in a village, they were to be killed.
That was a load of bull, and every ninja knew it.
They hadn't done anything wrong except defend themselves. That's why the majority of theem were ignored.
Rule #17; Konoha will never leave a comrade in the field.
That was, in his honest opinion, the worst load of shit he'd ever heard in his entire life. So many times, someone stayed behind, sending others on ahead.
People like Rin, who sent her patrol forward to try and draw the Kyubi's ire, to give them more time to prepare.
Kakashi looked to her name carved into the memorial stone with eyes as hard as the unforgivable rock's.
He still hated himself for letting her die.
Rule #32; The council is there to advise the kage and nothing more.
Kakashi glowered up at the dodery old fools on the table and this rule came to mind. Did the councilmen know about this rule? He should show it to them, just to see the looks on their faces!
"Kakashi, as that eye is the propery of the village, by signing this you state that on your death the eye shall be given to a worthy successor." Did they really think he was giving up Obito's eye so easily?
"Koharu, Homaru, you'd be wise not to 'forget' to invite me to such an important meeting again." She, as always, had a much better sense of timing than he did. Kami he was happy she got here in time.
Rule #85; A shinobi who dies in the line of duty will have their name carved into the memorial stone found in training ground seven.
That was such a useless rule. Even without it, people would carve the names of loved ones onto it's glossy surface.
Whenever he came here before a big mission, he always made sure that the older names had been seen to, so they would not fade.
As he finally got up and left, he looked over his shoulder for one last glance. After all, he might not come back one day.
He could've sworn he saw the rest of team Minato standing around the block. He could swear he heard Obito's voice.
"Don't be late Kakashi!"
END OF CHAPTER AND END OF STORY! I HAVE COMPLETED THIS STORY! NO AMOUNT OF REVIEWS WILL MAKE ME WRITE MORE!
LC; I have gotten to where I want to be with this little fic.
Naruto; So you just got bored with this and didn't want to give it away.
LC; *Splutteres* NO!...I just can't think of any more rules.
Sasuke; Of course you can't.
