Chapter 8
A/N: Sorry for the shortness. It's early and I haven't had enough sleep, but I promised you an update. Enjoy it!
Disclaimer: Shakes head. N-O means no.
Kakashi, Sakura, Naruto, Sasuke, and Pakkun all walked into the Hokage's room with slightly apprehensive looks across their features. They had no idea what to expect from the Hokage. Would he kick them out? Would he dismiss them? Would he come after them with an arsenal of flaming avocados? These thoughts and more zoomed through their heads. And while these thoughts bounced around like ping pong balls, a very large man appeared. Actually, it was just a very large man's face. And they all screamed.
After they were done screaming, the face spoke. "I am the Hokage of Oz," it said in a big, booming voice, "Why do you wish to see me?"
Sakura stepped forward slightly. "Well, Hokage, we all have different things we'd like, if you don't mind. We'll all state them."
"I'd like a brain and the new Icha Ich-," Kakashi noticed the death glare he was getting from all his ex-students and changed his mind. "I just want a new brain."
"I don't want anything."
Sakura pointed at Sasuke. "He actually wants a warm, caring hear that isn't surrounded by ice."
"I want to have common sense. That's what Sakura-chan told me to say. I also want to be the next Hokage. Dattebayo!"
Sakura smacked her head and was muttering obscenities under her breath when she realized she was supposed to say what she wanted. "And, Hokage, I'd like to get back home with Pakkun."
The Hokage's giant face laughed at them. "And what makes you think I'd do anything for you? What have you done for me?" His voice mocked them.
They all stood still, shocked. They had automatically assumed that the Hokage would help him. Now, they didn't have any idea as to what they could do to solve all their problems.
And while they all stood there, Pakkun jumped out of Kakashi's pocket and walked over to a curtain and pulled it open. Behind it stood a very small, old man.
The Hokage's giant face had been about to say, "Now, get out of here!" but was quickly saying, "Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!!"
Of course, everyone looked and saw the man behind the curtain. And everyone was pissed off. "Why did you deceive us like that?" Sakura asked in her own booming voice.
"I am but a small, old man. People would not respect me; they would walk all over me! Besides, I'd need some sort of payment to be able to perform all the tasks you've asked of me."
Sakura spoke up. "And what kind of payment would that be?"
"A lock of Ino's hair."
They all grinned maliciously. "That's a done deal."
