Well, first of all I'd like to express myself… Because the more I think about it, the more I get frustrated…

DAMN… THAT MANGA IS SO FUCKING FRUSTRATING… Now I remember why I've started to write a fanfiction…^_^ lol… Okay, sorry about that but after I watch the manga 483 last week, I felt terribly frustrated or maybe exhausted by the way this was going… I don't know what it was… but it's like the manga is always so dark and sad, I'd like to see some joy. Oh, I know, I'm such a dreamer… Anyway, it's a good thing I got your fanfictions to comfort me! : )

So, this week, I'm updating sooner than expected, because my stupid beta version of Windows (who was suppose to expire only in June) gave me 5 days to put another version… I should be back soon, but just in case, here is the chapter 10! Thanks for the reviews my faithful readers, I always appreciated them! : ) Love you all and I hope you'll enjoy! : ) : )

Oh and C.A.M.E.O.1 and only, I promise I'll try my best to do less mistakes, it's just so hard!!!! : )

See you soon guys!

Chapter 10 – And the sixth Hokage is…

"NO WAIT! GIVE US BACK SASUKE!" yelled the blond haired boy

"Next time we meet, it will be on the battleground…" concluded the strange person.

"NO, SASUKE!" yelled the blond haired boy.

And Madara disappeared taking with him the dark haired boy, leaving the assembly confused and worried.

"It's too late Naruto…" spoke the grey haired man, putting his hand on the boy's shoulder. At the same time, three cloaked persons followed by Sai made their appearance. Startled by the recent events, all the protectors jumped in front of their respective Kage in a defensive stance.

"What again…?" muttered the Raikage.

"Sai…?" asked Yamato curious,"Who are you with?"

"I'm…" started the said boy.

"Shut the hell up." muttered the one in the middle.

"Reveal your identity now…" ordered Mifune, perplexed.

"Or what? Gonna send your unconscious guards?" replied the same female voice while crossing her arms over her cloak.

"You attack the meeting?" asked dumbfounded Mifune while motioning his last two guards to capture the three persons.

"SO YOU WERE WITH THEM? YOU ARROGANT BITCH!!" yelled the Raikage while charging at the intruders.

When his fist was about to collide with the stranger in the middle, the one on the left step in front of the other and took the blow. The power was there, everyone could feel the reverberation of it, but instead of throwing the intruder one hundred feet away, it stopped. After 2 or 3 seconds of contemplation, the Raikage couldn't believe his eyes, as well as the rest of the audience. There in front of him, was a petite silhouette holding his giant fist with one of her delicate hand, half covering it.

"What the fuck?" replied the Raikage while looking at the little person.

'The only person capable of doing this is Tsunade, but this one is way too small… Who the hell are you?' thought the tall man.

"Oh my… what a friendly welcome…" said the middle one with sarcasm.

With one swift move, the intruder in the middle took off its cloak and revealed its identity, while the left one pushed away the Raikage with the hand that was holding his fist. The Raikage, surprised by the move and the power of the small silhouette, land a bit unbalanced on his feet 3 feet away, near his protectors.

"Tsunade… So you're awake, ne?" asked the Tsuchikage with a smirk.

"OLD TSUNADE YOU'RE ALIVE! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT…" yelled the hyperactive blond.

"Shut up Uzumaki… it's not the time…" replied the said woman.

"… Lady Tsunade, I'm afraid it's too late to attend the meeting… Danzo have…" started the Kazekage.

"Well… sorry to disappoint you but the meeting isn't over yet. Danzo is not the Hokage anymore and he wasn't either at the beginning of this reunion. Basically, you have gave information to a missing nin." explained the Gondaime.

"Huh!? What do you mean?" asked Kakashi, dumbfounded.

"First, let's sit down shall we?" spoke Tsunade with a small smile.

"I'm not going to attend this mess anymore, I got to find my brother and honestly, I'm over with Konoha's shit." roared the Raikage.

"For the benefit of our nations, lord Raikage, I think it would be wiser to discuss a little more." started Mifune, "Let's pass this to the vote… Who wants to pursue the meeting?"

"You can count me in…" replied hastily the Mizukage.

"Me too." added the Kazekage.

"Why are you even asking me?" spoke the Tsuchikage, "I'm in."

"No way in hell, am I gonna…" started the Raikage.

"Good! Now sit your ass on that chair." interrupted the Gondaime with a goody smile.

"WHAT?" replied the Raikage, enraged.

"Before we start, you must reveal the identity of your protectors. No one is allowed to attend this meeting without revealing it." explained the amoderator as if the Raikage hadn't speak at all.

"Damn women…" muttered the Raikage, though he had to admit it, he was curious to know the identity of the left one.

"Of course amoderator… girls?" asked Tsunade to her acolytes.

'Girls?' thought the Raikage, 'No way…'

While all eyes were on Tsunade, Kakashi was suddenly very interested. He was wondering who Tsunade have brought with her, though he had a good idea of who it was after the incident with the Raikage. Naruto, on the other hand, wasn't ecstatic at all about those incomers. He wasn't sure who he should expect, but somehow he was sure he would regret it. He knew that if it was Sakura there, he would be in great troubles and he would have a lot to explain. And now that he has lost Sasuke again, he wasn't sure how to explain things anymore. So, the first one to take off the cloak was the stranger on the right followed shortly after by a pink haired girl. Now, all eyes were on them.

'Bouhouhou I'm doomed!!!!' thought sadly the hyperactive blond.

"Here you have my two apprentices, Shizune, that most of you already know and here is Sakura." said Tsunade with pride.

"What? I've been beaten by a little girl?" asked incredulously the Raikage.

"Want me to do it again?" replied darkly the pink haired girl, feeling insulted.

"Sakura…" reprimand the Gondaime, "Now let's go."

As Tsunade and the rest of the Kages went to take their respective seats, as well as the protectors, Naruto, him, couldn't take his eyes off of Sakura; as well as a certain Kankouro, but it wasn't for the same reasons…

'What is wrong with you?' thought the blond haired boy while looking at his friend.

She didn't look like the Sakura he was use to. She looked dangerous and at the same time so fragile… Her facial traits were darker, harder and her outfit had changed, but her eyes were so sad and angry at the same time. Definitely, she wasn't the same girl. While Naruto was studying Sakura's behaviour, Yamato realize too that something was wrong and looking at Kakashi's face, he knew he had to let him talk to the girl in private.

"Naruto, stop daydreaming and get up there. Sai, come on." said Yamato while pointing the second floor.

"Huh!? Yeah…" answered the jinchuriki.

The said boy slowly and reluctantly went with the other two, while the jonin stay where he was to wait after Shizune and the pink haired girl.

"Hi Kakashi!" greeted Shizune silently when she approached the said man.

"Hello Shizune! You can sit near Yamato up there, we have a good spot." explained the grey haired with a hidden smile.

"Thank you! You're coming Sakura?" asked happily the brown haired woman while by passing the jonin.

"Yes, I'm right here." replied softly the pink haired girl.

"Hello Sakura!" greeted the grey haired man with a soft hidden smile, when the girl was near him.

"Kakashi sensei." spoke the said girl while continuing her way.

That surprised the copy cat ninja. Sakura was giving him the cold shoulder for apparently no reason, which leads him to conclude that he would never understand women. Sighing, he followed the girl.

"Is everything alright?" asked Kakashi with a sad voice.

Realizing what had happened moments ago, the pink haired girl stopped dead in her tracks, almost getting hit by her sensei's body. She turned around and looks at Kakashi and that's when she felt ashamed of her attitude.

"Hmmm… Sorry Kakashi, I haven't meant to be rude." apologized the girl.

"No problems but are you sure you're okay?" asked the man, worried.

"Yeah! Don't worry!" answered the girl with a fake smile before climbing the stairs.

'That fake smile again… sigh!' thought Kakashi before following the girl up stairs. He took his previous seat near Naruto and the pink haired girl sat next to him. When the blond haired boy realizes the girl's presence he turned his head and looked at her.

"Hmmm… Hi Sakura!" tried the boy without receiving a comeback.

The girl who seems to be deep in thoughts, suddenly turned her head in his direction and look at him with a serious tone.

"Naruto… we need to talk after that."

"Huh!? Okay…" answered the said boy, a bit confused.

"Hey Sakura! How are you sexy?" interrupted Kankouro with a smirk.

Surprised, Sakura looked at the end of the row. There, Kankouro was sit next to Yamato and was waving at her.

"Kankouro, shut up they are beginning! Oh! Hi Sakura!" whispered Temari loud enough to hear.

The pink haired girl waved her hand at the two with a small smile and turns her head back at the meeting table. It was beginning.

"So why are you here Tsunade?" asked the amoderator.

"I'm here to advise you that Konoha is now under siege." explained the woman while holding her hand up to calm the audience, knowing the shock it would cause.

"What?" asked at the same time the Mizukage and the Kazekage.

"By who?" asked the Tsuchikage.

"WHAT? Konoha doesn't exist anymore?" practically yelled Naruto.

"Calm down boy, let her explain." spoke the Raikage.

"Thank you Raikage." said the Gondaime, impressed by the man's behaviour, "Here's the story. Two days ago, Konoha was in a civil war, the authority in place against the rebellion. As you can see, I am not wearing any leaf headband, as well as my protectors, because we were in the rebellion. We have organised the movement. Today, I have been informed that the war was over and that the rebellion has won. So, basically as the new leader of the village hidden in the leaves, I have decided to bring you the news myself."

"So, what you mean is that Konoha is now ruled by a bunch of traitors?" asked with sarcasm the Raikage.

"The jonins have voted and Danzo haven't been accepted as the sixth Hokage. Moreover, all the clans were on our side. Hyugga, Nara, Yamanaka, Akimichi, Aburame, Inuzuka, name them all. Everyone was against Danzo, but with the Root well implanted everywhere, there was a risk of assassinations, and we have tried to prevent that from happening. The civilians have been transported elsewhere and the Root's members who were opposed to the destitution of Danzo have been captured or killed depending of their loyalty. Don't worry; it has been a clean war. Considering the information given to me by my tactical advisers, Shikaku Nara and his son Shikamaru, we only have to deplore the death of twenty persons, all members of the Roots and loyal to Danzo. As for my medical staff, I have been informed by Ino Yamanaka that no civil have been reported to be injured or dead… Anyway, back to the main topic. Ibiki Morino, second officer of the resistance, have sign today with the elders, a scroll with the new conditions… The first one was the destitution of Danzo. Since we have discovered his implications in the Uchiha massacre, the second one was obviously a warrant of arrest against Danzo and his execution, if he is caught alive. We have also specified that no one should be allowed to conspire or to allowed clans' elimination in the future, no matter what the reason is. Anyway, I won't enter in the details of this new chart, but basically, the village of Konoha will stay the same. The only difference is that the rules have changed. I'm still the fifth Hokage and the one in charge, but since things happened in the village that could alter the relations of Konoha with others countries, I am here to make sure you still accept us in the coalition." concluded the Gondaime.

"…"

"… You have my trust. Tsunade, since you're in charge, I've always receive a good cooperation from Konoha. Moreover, I owe my life to your village. If it wouldn't have been of Naruto Uzumaki, Kakashi Hatake and Sakura Haruno, I wouldn't have been here today. Also, if Sakura wouldn't have come to my aid to save my brother's life, I would have lost an important person in my life. So, if that girl is with you and if the others still believe in you, it means I can do the same." spoke the Kazekage.

"Sakura Haruno, ne?" asked the Mizukage while looking at the girl, "You're the one who killed Sasori of the red sand, isn't it?"

"Yes, my lady." answered the said girl, while bowing her head.

"And you are friend with the jinchuriki?"

"Yes, my lady."

"I like her… Okay I'm in!" replied the woman with a huge smile.

"WHAT? YOU CAN'T BASE YOUR DECISION ON SUCH A TRIVIAL CONVERSATION!" yelled Ao.

"Relax Ao… I'm joking! Tsunade is an old friend; I know I can trust her, even if we are now leader of two different countries. Besides, I was just curious about that girl. Her reputation among the five nations is incredible. A lot of people think she might even surpass her sensei, the fifth Hokage. She is a talented young medic and a powerful ninja, don't you think Raikage?"

"Go to hell…" muttered the Raikage.

"Hahahahaha! Anyway… You have taught her well Tsunade and I bet you do too Shizune." concluded the Mizukage.

"Thank you." replied Tsunade with a smile.

Sakura on the other hand was surprised that they even know her name. What the Mizukage have said have made the young girl blush and Kakashi chuckled at this.

"You have always been an arrogant and impulsive child Tsunade, but since you have become a Hokage, you show a side of you that command respect and trust. Since nothing happened between our countries during your reign, I concede you my support." spoke the Tsuchikage.

After that, all eyes went on the Raikage, waiting for his answer. The Gondaime though, didn't know what to expect from him.

"You're in charge of this damn alliance, woman. You better do this right." finally said the man.

"What? In charge of the alliance?" asked Tsunade, dumbfounded.

"Yeah… unless you want everyone to fight over this…" said Mifune.

"Hmmm… Don't worry, I can handle it. But… I have to advise you that I won't be the only one in charge." spoke the Gondaime.

"How come?" asked the amoderator.

"Since the new chart has been signed, the village of Konoha has decided to split the authority, which means that they want two Kages to command. This way, the decisions will have to be taken and approved by two different persons. By doing this, it will be easier to avoid the corruption, the lies and the decisions based on the interests of the leader."

"So, does that mean we'll have to wait after your elders to choose a second leader?" asked the Tsuchikage, unsure.

"No, the decision has already been taken… And besides, the jonins have already voted… The sixth Hokage will be…" started the Gondaime, while everybody was listening attentively,

"Kakashi Hatake…"
