Things went downhill quickly.
Kidding!
If anything things were looking up! Danzo wasn't on the offensive anymore, as attacking the very people trying to find the missing children he stole would cast even more suspicion on him.
Of course, no one could prove it was him. All they could prove from eyewitness accounts and the records from her uncle was that some Konoha kids were defiantly missing.
But those records proved one more thing; Some one was tampering with the official records.
Yeah, boo! Big deal, we know that, Miko.
Shhhhhh...
The point is, the Konoha shinobi didn't know that. Councilpeople didn't know that. Almost everybody else didn't know that. It means that you can't trust your own village. What else are they hiding? In one night, she had turned the village up on it's head. The Hokage had tried to keep it a secret of course, but sometime between when she walked Tenten home, found out, told her uncle, told her father, and them telling the Hokage, somebody let it slip.
And the heroes riding in on white horses to save the day?
The Uchiha.
The Police Force, working day and night, the very same people who noticed this in the first place. Surely they could be trusted to protect them!
She used her senses to drop in on her fathers conversations. The Hokage had been caught off guard by this. The Hokage knew it was Danzo, but a move against him this quickly would only leave people to conclude it was Danzo, thus upending the trust between the village and it's people even further-past a tipping point. Danzo was saved by the very thing that was destroying him-the public.
He had a limited time(Give or take two years) only before either the Police force dug up enough evidence or when the Hokage made his move, and cornered animals are always the ones who lash out.
So,
Danzo,
"..."
...Tick Tock, Tick Tock, Tick Tock, Tick Tock, Tick Tock, Tick Tock, Tick Tock, Tick Tock, Tick Tock.
Your move, creep.
