Today was the day of the Hokage's funeral. I looked out of my bedroom window and saw the overcast and a slight drizzle of rain falling upon the village. I got changed into my black funeral clothes and met up with Shikamaru and we went to the service together.
I had gotten some flowers and we laid them near a picture of him, I could see the long chains of flowers around him. More and more people were coming to commemorate the life of our Hokage. We went to stand next to Iruka who was comforting a little boy who I think was the Hokage's grandson, that the Hokage kept talking about all the time.
I rested my head on Shika's shoulder and I felt tears slip down my face. I missed him and felt sorry for Konohamaru. His father died, then his mother and now his grandfather. He only had Asuma left as well as his friends. I promised to help him out because of my relationship with the Hokage. Soon enough the service ended and I went to find the Hokage's grandson.
I quickly found him and tapped his shoulder. "Hey your Konoharmaru right?" He nodded. "If you ever need my help for anything just come and ask, ok. I'm Naru Uzumaki come find me if you need help." Then Shika and I were off to the top of the Hokage monument where we would just sit in silence for the next couple of hours.
After the funeral had happened it was time for the new Hokage to be picked. I heard from Jiraiya who was going to be picked and he told me that Tsunade and himself were all going to be asked for the position. Ok, so Jiraiya was going to be picked. I laughed at that and then was slightly horrified at the laws he could put in place.
So that means that Tsunade was the next candidate for Hokage and she was the current head of the Hospital. I actually think she might take the position, considering that she wanted better hospital equipment and medical teams this could actually be a possibility.
Now the only thing I want to happen is for the civilian council to be kicked out, they do nothing to help us and they have only made the academy as well as they whole ninja system weaker meaning that our village could have potentially very weak ninja coming into the academy, and this all started at my birth, I mean why decide to have a meeting while your village is being destroyed.
I could only hope that Tsunade would take the position, she was the best person for the job right now and could do a lot of good for the village that could stop ninja dying and have better trained ninja. So today I was going to talk to Tsunade herself about this. I expect to be punched into a wall with I'm about to show her.
I run over to the Hospital and go into the head of the hospital's office where she was, actually taking her job seriously. I tell her the plans for the new Hokage and she immediately says no. I then show her the plans of which she could impose on the village for the better like new medical programs and plans for the ninja academy. We had finished our talk when there was a knock at the door. I waved goodbye and hoped she would take the position.
A council representative was there and I went past and out of the hospital to find some of my friends and just hang out with them for the rest of the day.
