Chapter 1- The new Hokage

In the hyüga training ground the hyüga leader was sparing with her sister. Each one of her movements flowed into one another. It looked like she was dancing rather than fighting. It was absolutely beautiful to watch. It was like a she cast a spell on the watchers to put them in such trance. Most of the household stop they daily chores to watch the sisters sparing.

"Hinata-sama you have a meeting in an hour with the Hokage you should not be training but getting ready." Hinata stopped the spare and grabbed the towel that was handed to her.

"Thank you, Kō. I almost forgot that meeting. Did she say what it was about?" Kō opened the scroll from his pocket. "No Hinata-sama. She had given no details of the meeting."

*sigh* "Hai. Hanabi-chan, could you tell Otōsan that I'll be meeting the Hokage?" Hinata asked looking at her sister who was wiping her face. "Hai Nee-chan."

The crowed that had gathered before had now dissipated and Hinata went off to get cleaned up. In her room she laid out a simple white kimono to wear. Kō stood outside her door as she got dressed, relaying any event that took place in the clan for the day. When she was done Hinata slid the door open and stepped out. She folded her arms in her sleeves and walked out into the passage. "Kō-kun, are you ready to go?"Kō nodded and followed her out of the compound.

While walking to the Hokage tower they spotted Shikamaru heading in the same direction. Hinata walked up to him and hugged him. "Shika-kun it's been a while, how have you been?" Shikamaru was stunned momentarily re-gain himself and hugged her back. "It has been a while Hina-chan." The two friends separated and took a look at each other. Shikamaru was taken aback on how different Hinata looked without her ANBU or shinobi gear. The kimono she wore showed of every curve she had on her body but she looked graceful at the same time. Getting over his day dreaming again he responded to her question. "I've been well Hinata but my mother wants me to start going to the clan meetings to learn the ropes to take over. It's too troublesome." Hinata giggle at her friend's expression "But Shika-kun I thought you go to all the meetings already?" Hinata giggled again at her friend who looked like he had been caught red handed. Her laughter died down and she took in a breath. "Shika-kun, are you headed for the Hokage's office too?"

"Ah... Hai, I'll walk with you."The two friends continued to catch up on each other's lives while Kō watched over the two.

When they reached the Hokage's office Shizune was walking out. "Oh Hinata-chan, Shikamaru-kun, Kō-kun, Tsunade-sama is waiting for you. Go inside" the trio nodded and walked in.

"Hokage-sama" the trio said and bowed. "Ahh good you here but there's one more person missing. We'll just have to wait. Anyway, Hinata how is the clan doing?"

"Everything is going well Tsunade-sama. One of our clan members gave birth today, a bounce baby-boy!" Hinata's eyes lit up when she announced the birth of the baby. This didn't go unnoticed by the Hokage. Tsunade loved the caring nature of Hinata it reminded her so much of Hinata's mother. Tsunade was about to speak again but was interrupted by the door being slammed opened.

"Obaachan! I have brought Kakashi-sensei!" Hinata tensed a little after hearing his voice but relaxed when Shikamaru covered her hand that was resting on the chair.

"NARUTO! How many times have I told you to KNOCK?!" *huff* Kakashi walked in and apologized for Naruto's loud behavior. He made his way to the wall and leaned on it. Naruto stood behind Shikamaru's chair.

"Well everyone is here we'll get started. I have called all of you here today because I'm going to be retiring from my position as Hokage at the end of this year and a new Hokage has to be chosen." Naruto was grinning from ear to ear, thinking he is going to be picked. "I know all of you must be thinking that Naruto will be my choice as the next Hokage but he is not ready to run this village. Someone else will take my place as Hokage."

The room grew quiet and everyone turned to Naruto to see his reaction. "Baa-chan... this has to be some sort of joke..."

"No Naruto…"

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN I'M NOT READY?! I SAVED THIS VILLAGE I SAVED EVERYONE! I DESERVE TO BE THE HOKAGE!"

"Naruto please calm down. I never said that you would not be Hokage. I am too old for this job Naruto and you are not ready to run the day to day events of a village. So I need someone to take over while you are learning how to run this village."

Naruto grew quiet but never lost his glare at Tsunade. "Ano… Who will then replace you Tsunade-sama?" Hinata piped in. "The council and I have chosen three people as candidates to replace me."

"It's between Kakashi, Hinata and I. Right Hokage-sama?" Shikamaru said suddenly. Everyone looked at him then Tsunade. "He is right isn't he?" Kakashi asked.

"Hai he is. Once you will be chosen by the end of this month and you will not be able to deny the position." That stopped Kakashi from saying anything. Hinata looked up to Kō who gave her an apologetic look and Shikamaru added in a "troublesome".

"I know this is a lot to process so we will meet again tomorrow at 8am and Kakashi do not be late. You are dismissed." All of them slowly walked out of the room. Naruto headed straight for Sasuke's place while Kakashi headed to the monument. Shikamaru said good bye to Hinata and headed for Kurenai's place.

Hinata was still triying to wrap her mind around the fact of her being chosen to become Hokage. Sure she is the head of her clan but running the entire village is a huge task. A frown was etched on her forehead as they continued on the walk back home. She was brought out of her thoughts when Kō announced they had arrived home.

"Hinata-sama are you going to be ok?" Hinata smiled at Kō and kissed his forehead. "Don't worry Kō everything will work it's self out and I may not even be picked remember."

"Are you going to tell your father?" Hinata closed her eyes and nodded, took in a deep breath and walked towards her father's office.

Hanabi walked up beside Kō. "I take it that things didn't go so well at the Hokage's office?"

"Well that depends on how you look t it Hanabi-sama." Hanabi looked at Kō then back at her sister. "Tell me what happened…"
