"Alright Mr. Mission Protocol, where are we going?"
"To T& I division."
"What's that mean?"
"..."
"What?"
"Tourture and interrogation."
"WHAT!"
"Tourture and interrogation."
"You're gonna torture me now! What next? Are you going to torture my baby too? Next are you gonna go for the Bowtruckle then?"
"Calm down will you? Nobody's gonna torture you or your son or your weird pet. They're just going to ask you basic information and determine the maximum threat level you can possess. And because I've specified you as a priority case, you can finish it all in a single day and get to meet the hokage instead of the usual 3 days stay at T &I."
"Oh yeah? Why thank you my lord for such consideration. What ever would I do without you? I've always wanted to be tortured. How can I ever repay you?"
"No need for the snark. Did you not hear the interrogation part? Its not like you'll be handed over to Ibiki san."
"Ibiki? Is that your torture specialist?"
"Yes. Now , are you going to move or do I have to haul your ass there myself? I've already sent a message ahead and the interrogation department among with the hokage will be waiting for you already. The longer you take, the longer you have to be there."
"What's the guarantee that this is harmless to me? I am stranded in a freaking other dimension, about to be carted of to a torture facility, with no way back home. It's a miracle I can function normally still. Is there's even a single threat to me or my baby, I won't even think of hesitating before destroying you and your precious village. You got me?"
"I understand that you have a lot of reservations about an unknown government, but believe me, I do not, I repeat, do not wish harm upon you at all.."
" What about your vill..."
"And as far as my village is concerned, your talents will be a valuable asset to it. There is no profit for us to keep you prisoners. This may be a military base village, but we still have and will f unction normally like any other civilian village. It's not all rainbows and sunshine here , it has a rotten underbelly too. But there's nothing legally stopping you from leaving unless you are a threat to the village. Please. Just give us a chance, will you?"
"I... I'll try."
"Let's be off then."
With that, they walked forwards to the T and I building. Upon entering, she was asked to relinquish all fighting equipment she was carrying to which Kakashi replied that she's not a ninja. Then the man asked why she was a high priority sanctuary case of she's a civilian then while showing interest in Teddy, to which she looked at Kakashi, but the pervert just kept giving her that weird eye-smile.'How does he do that! That is really creepy.'
At that point they were ushered in by Inoichi, and he did a double take when his eyes landed on the baby. Then he kept giving Kakashi such an incredulous look, that it made him self conscious. He looked down to see if he's missed something. But nothing was amiss. 'What's wrong with Inoichi today. Has he finally snapped from peering into others' brains?' Hazel was asked to take a seat which she did at the table that was provided. Meanwhile, Kakashi leaned on the opposite wall and whipped out a book to read. It was a very interesting piece about the history of Takigakure. While Kakashi was lost to history, our witch was subjected to the silent treatment. And she couldn't exactly start a conversation, it would make her seem weak plus the man won't understand what she'll say either. Right then another person entered carrying a file, that reminded her of Mad-eye . He had an imposing figure with lots of scarring on his face wearing a tan trench coat over his clothes and a bandana over his head. She smiled at him amused that they were gonna try the good cop-bad cop routine. Ibiki was a little surprised but it didn't show on his face. This was a first for him, where someone, a civilian at that, smiled at him with nostalgia while he's deliberately trying to be scary.' Well well well. Isn't that interesting! Is that a kid she's holding, with Hatake's hair, right down to the style? Since when has he shown interest in women or even romance at all? Enough to get someone pregnant!'
Finally Inoichi introduced himself but Ibiki showed no signs of doing the same. When she kept giving him an expectant look, Inoichi decided to move on to the interrogation part.
Inoichi-"Please state your name and the reason why our village will benefit from hosting you. The reason for your move and your previous house location."
When she didn't answer but kept looking at Kakashi, he belatedly realised that they can't understand her without the charm.
Kakashi-" Ah. Please Inoichi san, she cannot speak now. As I mentioned in my message, she's a high priority sanctuary case, what I didn't mention was it is of level 5. So please inform hokage sama and Shikaku san."
Inoichi-" She's of level 5 and you brought her through the front desk. Have you forgotten the standard protocols brat?"
Ibiki- " She doesn't look dangerous enough to be level 5."
Kakashi-" Its not her danger level. Is her usefulness and unknown dangers to her." At this Hazel gave him the stink eyes.' Not dangerous? Is it? Looks like the mischief needs to be managed for the perv.'
Inoichi-" Fine fine. What's done is done. Send a clone to fetch hokage sama and Shikaku. Anko is in the other room observing through the window. I was intending to use this opportunity to teach her how to interrogate a high priority case without any need for violence, but looks like she'll have to be sworn to secrecy. ANKO! COME IN HERE."
Just as Ibiki's newly created clone got near the door, it swung open with a bang to reveal Anko in all her mesh clad glory dispelling the poor thing. Ibiki let out a sigh of misery and made a new one. As soon as her eyes settled on the woman who is sitting at the table far too calmly for someone about to be interrogated by Inoichi in Ibiki's presence, she scoffed. This slip of a woman can't be a level 5. She's probably some wealthy little girl whose life is in danger and she thinks she's of highest possible priority. She'll bet 10 sticks of dango that this adorable little thing is a level 1 at best. Then Teddy woke up from his nap with a cute yawn and Anko's gaze settled on him.
Anko stared.
Teddy blinked.
Anko rubbed her eyes.
Teddy let out a yawn.
Anko rounded on Kakashi with an accusing finger, "You... Who do you think you are? Just coz you're a little good, you think some random chick you knocked up is a priority level 5 Mr. Bigshot? Wait. Wait a second. YOU! KNOCKED UP!A GIRL! HOLY SAGE! Kurenai so owes me a month of her pay. This is pure gold. Ha ha ha...he ...heh. I didn't know you had it in you Hatake. Nice going."
"What" was Kakashi's eloquent answer. Teddy whimpered because of the shouting then giggled hearing the laughing.
"Kurenai thought you were gay and never gonna have any kids. Oh God. Heh. Did you get drunk and forgot to use protection or something? Just you wait till Gai hears about this. He'll cry very youthfully."With that, she dissolved into another fresh peal of laughter, holding on to her stomach and slapping Ibiki's shoulder.
It was then that both Kakashi and Hazel realised that they screwed up big time. Hazel forgot to apply the glamour on Teddy and Kakashi cursed his unusual inattentive behaviour today for getting the innocent kid's abilities noticed by the village. Hazel concentrated very hard like her very life depended on it. She tried to cast a wandless, non-verbal glamour charm on him. After the 4th failed attempt, she finally decided to say the incantation. Its not like they won't know she's not local later on anyway.
Kakashi didn't let any of his thoughts show outwards and lazyly looked up from his book.
Kakashi-" I am not gay. Am I the only one in the world to have white hair? The brat could belong to any white haired guy ."
Anko-" Oh please. That hair screams Hatake exclusive."
Kakashi-"Have you ever looked at the Nidaime's picture? He was a Senju, not a Hatake."
Inoichi-"So he's not yours?"
Kakashi-"No."
Inoichi-"And here I thought we'd finally have a Hatake heir. So much for you settling down."
Anko-"wait wait wait. Are you seriously gonna believe that bull he's spouting? He's obviously sweet on her and got her pregnant by accident."
Kakashi-"Who do you think I am? I do not, I repeat, do not have careless accidents like that. I have neither desire nor need for romance."
Then they heard the woman speak," est obstrepat"
Kakashi was surprised that he didn't understand what she said. Then it clicked, she must have used that illusion she was talking about and nobody even noticed. Colour him impressed.'Wait a sec. That means the boy will continue to have my hair. Ughhh. Now all the village will think he's mine. Mendoukuse. I'll just have to request for a DNA test then.'
Ibiki-" You can speak lady. Then why were your pretending to be mute?"
Kakashi-,"Ummm ... Ibiki san! There's a reason why I said she can't speak. Not that she's mute. Let's wait for the hokage."
In the meantime Hazel was feeling pretty smug about pulling off that spell wandless and successfully hiding Teddy's powers. Anko was sulking that nobody's taking her side. Inoichi was exasperated but relieved too. Ibiki was suspicious as always. Anko bounced towards the mother-son duo and peered at the baby. He giggled and grabbed at her coat while Hazel blushed seeing the kunoichi's attire . This is the scene Sarutobi Hiruzen, the professor, sandaime hokage of Konohagakure no sato stumbled upon. Anko cooing over a woman with red hair sporting a red face, Ibiki glowering at said woman, Inoichi praying for patience and Kakashi with an annoyed look. That is unusual. He didn't think Ibiki was the jealous type. He got even more of a shock when Anko moved out of the way to reveal a child, more specifically a child with hair like Kakashi. He put out his tobacco pipe and turned to Kakashi,
"Congratulations my boy. I am very happy that you found something of worth to you."
Kakashi-"Hokage sama. The child is not mine. I assure you. I'll even agree to a DNA test."
Sarutobi-"Does the mother agree as well?" Hazel nodded her consent.
Kakashi-"May we please start the process. I am exhausted and so is she. I'd like to finish this fast. Where's Shikaku san?"
Anko-"Oooohh . So much care for your girlfriend?"
Kakashi-" Zip it ."
Shikaku then entered, took one look at Teddy and muttered "mendoukuse"
"Not my kid." Guess who said that.
Shikaku-"This is the level 5 case? Take these tags and set up the barrier Kakashi. What are you doing here Anko?"
Anko-"Inoichi was supposed to teach me how to play nice. So I was already here."
Shikaku-"Get away from the poor girl before she passes out of embarrassment."
Anko-"But they are so adorable. She and her son both. And the bug too."
Shikaku-"Mendoukuse... We are here to interrogate. Not play."
Anko-"Che"
As Kakashi and Shikaku were setting up the barrier and other necessities, Hiruzen observed the girl infront of him. She was a red head with emerald green eyes with round glasses. But the most unusual thing was her clothes. They were of not any generic design. But they did look expensive enough to be worn by any hime. There was a bug on her shoulders but she didn't look bothered by it, only sometimes guiding her son's hands away from it when required. She hasn't spoken a word, but Ibiki did say she was mute. And she looked entirely relaxed for someone in her predicament. She was studying him just as intensely he was doing to her.
Hazel was studying the old man infront of her. He was of short stature and wearing a white robe with white wide brimmed hat with a bit red scattered about. There was a tobacco pipe hanging from h is lips. Good thing he put it out already or she wouldn't be responsible for any damages to the man's face for harming her precious baby's lungs. He looks like your average grandpa with a bit of flair, but it's those eyes that got to her. He had the eyes of a survivor. Someone who's seen a broken world and hasn't let it break them while still trying to fix it piece by piece. She often saw this look in Hermione's eyes after the war. This prominently she had seen it last in Dumbledore's. He was very similar to her old headmaster. That's kind of nostalgic. After all the privacy barriers were set up, Kakashi straightened up and bluntly said,
"She's from a different dimension. Accidentally traveled here and doesn't know our language."
