Kakashi opened the scroll like it was an exploding note. His hands were shaking, something that is rare for him. It told Kakashi all that he was to inherit, the estate, his mothers fine jewels, everything down to the last toothpick in the house was his. The 13-year old scroll went into a vague description about a shrine that marks the entrance of the estate. The will did not go into detail about other than there was something in it that belonged to Kakashi as well. Unable to read the document any longer the silver-haired shinobi picked up the smaller of the two scrolls, scrawled on the inside was
"Meet me at the Hatake-Family shrine tomorrow at 9 am
Love Akihira"
Kakashi sighed at his friends mystery.
"Akihira what in the HELL have you gotten me into?" Little did the nin know, a white wolf had been watching him the whole time, and just disappeared into the night.
THE NEXT MORNING
Kakashi walked up to his old home and saw Aki leaning once more in her all-knowing pose, up against a shrine that Kakashi never noticed before.
"Akihira is this all a trick? You know that both of my parents are dead." The Sanin giggled a little and said,
"No Kakashi this isn't a trick, you can let your guard down."
"I'm a ninja, I never let my guard down."
"I'm a ninja too and I let my guard down, but that's an argument for another time." The empress eyes opened and the air about her turned from cheery to serious, "Kakashi, your father once opened this shrine for me and he told me only a Hatake can open it."
"I'm a ninja too and I let my guard down, but that's an argument for another time." The empress eyes opened and the air about her turned from cheery to serious, "Kakashi, your father once opened this shrine for me and he told me only a Hatake can open it."
"So what do I just pull open the doors?"
"No the lock requires a key, or a blood sacrifice."
"So your saying I have to prick my finger?"
"Basically, unless you have that key that was in the will."
"No I don't."
"Then here." The blonde woman handed him a shuriken and Kakashi cut his index finger, sticking it into the hole. The doors flew open, and a bright light engulfed the area, once the copy-nin could see again, Akihira was gone.
'I never thought someone could be so complicated' He thought as he pulled out the scroll and sat down. The nin was just about to open the scroll when a cold wet nose was shoved up under his elbow. He looked down and saw a huge white wolf, with a black marking around his muzzle, giving the illusion of a mask. The mutt also had dark grey-blue eyes.
"Hello" the nin said petting the dog on the head.
'It is so good to see you healthy Kakashi' I thought, 'That scroll you're holding is meaningless, there is something still inside the shrine that you need to pull out' So I jumped up and made him stand.
"What is wrong with you?" He asked. I shoved my nose into the shrine and barked several times, making sure he knew what I was after.
"Something you want?"
'Yes Kakashi look inside of here dammnit!' I thought. Eventually I got him to look and he took out the small statue of our founder and the other statue of Kami. The shrine slid back and set of stairs appeared. I heard Kakashi gasp.
