Akira spead through the trees, elegantly weaving from branch to branch, her firey red hair looking like the finest ribbon. She ended on top of the hokage monument. She smiled, and looked down. The village was bustling with excitement, people moving around quickly trying to get from place to place. Akira laughed and spread her arms to the sky. She looked at the hokage tower, and then jumped down from the cliff, landing like a cat on top of the tower. She smiled and pushed a lock of hair back into place. She sighed happily, and walked down the stairs, her feet moving delicately with each step. She smiled at the guards, and entered the office of the third hokage. She moved with grace to the front of his desk. She smiled. "Hello, hokage-sama. How are you today?" She asked, her voice like a quiet symphony of bells.
Sarutobi smiled. "Ah, Hello Akira. How was your mission." Akira smiled and raised her hand to gentle stroke the leaf headband that rested on her forehead. "oh, it was lovely." She said, smiling widely. "I've never had so much fun." Sarutobi smiled back. "That's wonderful. Hm, why don't you have the day off today? Arashi has the day off as well..." He said. Akira laughed. "Hee hee, alright, Thank you Hokage-sama." She said, happily.
"Well then, off with you." Sarutobi said, still smiling at the image of Arashi and Akira. She nodded, and slipped out the door. Sarutobi continued on his paperwork, deciding that his best decision has the third hokage, had to be allowing Akira to become a ninja of the village.

Arashi rolled his eyes at Jairaya. The perv was talking on and on about ''spy'' missions. Arashi sighed. "Man, Jairaya, I'm old enough not to fall for that." He said, irritatedly. There was a quiet laugh from behind him. "Jairaya, stop trying to turn my Arashi into, well, you." Arashi turned around and grabbed the person in a hug. He smiled, his eyes dancing with amusement. "Akira." He said, smiling, and kissing her gently. Akira giggled and kissed him back. "Hi Arashi. Jairaya, put that notebook down before you find it somewhere that no one wants it." Arashi turned to see Jairaya mid-write and looking at them. "Awww, but it's good stuff." He said, putting it down. " I need the romantics from somewhere." Akira sat down, with Arashi next to her.
"... If you weren't so obsessed with writing a pervy book, you wouldn't need romantics." Akira scolded, smiling when the ramen man put her usual order of miso ramen down. Arashi gentlly nuzzled her. "You look nice today. " He said. Akira laughed. "Arashi, you weirdo. I just got back from a mission." She said. Arashi shrugged. "so?" He said, continuing on his nuzzle-expedition. Akira giggled. Then she hit jairaya with a random salt-shaker. "Put. the notepad. down." She said, kissing Arashi's cheek. Jairaya sighed from the background. " You suck." He grumbled. Akira giggled. "Come on, Arashi. Let's go walk around. " She said, paying the Ramen shop keeper and dragging Arashi from his seat. He curled his arms around her as the walked.
"Yeah yeah, if you say so." He teased. Akira laughed. They walked around for a while, before pausing at the base of the hokage monument. Arashi picked Akira up, and jumped up to the roof of the hokage tower. The two curled up together, and looked at the monument. "Someday, I'm going to be up there." Arashi whispered into Akira's ear. She looked up at him and smiled. "You are. Want to know why?" She kissed him. "Cause. you're the best." akria smiled. Arashi blushed and kissed her back. "Nah. Cause I have you." he said. Akira blushed, and then the two continued gazing up at the stone faces.
