"You chose the demon brat as the next Hokage?" asked an outraged member from the council.
"I chose Naruto Uzumaki, the son of the Fourth Hokage, as the next Hokage," clarified Tsunade coolly, as she squared off with the council.
"You can't do this," admonished an elderly woman.
"Just watch me," challenged Tsunade as she held her ground.
"Tsunade, remember who you are talking to," commanded the leader of the council. "We still have every right to annul your decision. Besides, we have still not appointed a candidate to become the Hokage's advisor."
"Not unless you have a just cause or proof of bias," drawled out a tired voice.
"You invited a Nara boy to a council meeting?" raged the elder, clearly displeased with Tsunade's actions.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is Shikamaru Nara. He is going to be the next Hokage's advisor," announced Tsunade with a triumphant grin on her face.
"That is our job," loudly continued the elder, over the bickering voices of the council. "Unless you called a vote between the head of the clans and a single candidate won all of the votes."
"That I did," confessed Tsunade.
"Nonsense, the Hyuga would never agree to this," scoffed a female member.
"Hyuga Hiashi wouldn't," confirmed Tsunade as she crossed her arms across her chest. "Hyuga Hinata, on the other hand, was a different story."
...screwed...
(**In case anyone didn't get the ending, I'll leave a brief explanation. I assumed that every Hokage needs an advisor and that the Council chose that 'person'. To get out of that situation, if all the clans in Konoha voted for a single candidate, they can get around that rule. Since Hiashi wasn't there to vote in favour of the Council, Hinata voted instead and turned the tide to Tsunade's favour. **)
