Konoha Hospital

A place to go in need of severe injury

Kakashi lays in bed.... The doctors said that he would be fine in less than a week, the damage was severe, but a short medical treatment and a few bandages would take care fo it..

Kakashi is in bed reading his favorite book...Icha Icha Tactics....

Naruto jumps in the window, with a full stomach having just eaten at the Ichiraku "Sensei, I didn't hurt you too bad did I?"Naruto asked one arm behind his head

"Oh, Naruto you're here.."

"Naw, the damage is repairable, in a few days and I can get out and be ble to go on missions again..."

"But Konoha has suffered a massive blow, even though Yamato is still working on it...."

"Yea", Naruto said, "Without Yamato, Konoha would be in some trouble huh?"

Naruto hopped down from the window sill, "I feel bad for you Kakashi, you won't be able to read any more of those books"Naruto said sadly

"Yea, I know..... but....."

"I'm sure the series will contuine after some long delays....."

"Someone who carried the author's will should contuine his... ways.."

Naruto laughed a small laugh, Jiraya's "Ways".

Naruto looked left and right, shut the window and closed the door "What are we going to do about Danzo and Sasuke? Danzo has declared him a Missing-nin after all" Naruto said

Kakashi looked at Naruto....

"I'm young yet old, Danzo becoming the Sixth Hokage... I had never expected that actually..."

"I thought you were to become Hokage first.... You're already stronger than him."
"I could do nothing right now, but you...." "I'm counting on you to fix things here Naruto... and to save Sasuke..."

"Don't worry Sensei! I got it!" "What's cool is that I heard Shikaku Nara nominated you for the position of sixth Hokage, at least thats what I heard from Shikamaru"Naruto said.

Sasuke......

"Hm, the work would be way too troublesome...."

"Good luck Naruto, and start training even more harder.... Becasue to all of us, Sasuke isn't a Missing-Nin."

"Aye, aye!"Naruto said loudly as he jumped out the window

Sasuke....I'm coming!!!

"Hm, same naruto."

Kakashi contuined reading his book..

(Four days has passed)

Kakashi exited out of the Hospital doors...

"Ah, back and ready for some life-taking missions..."

Naruto walked up, looking like the crap was beaten out of him, "Feelin' better sensei?"He asked with a grin and one arm behind his head.

"Yep."

"I might as well take a look on our new Hokage...."

"Might as well"Naruto said

"I gotta get some of that ointment that gives you stamina back, of whatever, I'm super tired!"Naruto said as he began to walk into the hospital

"Good luck sensei!"Naruto called back to Kakashi

"Might as well also see how he gives away missions..."

Kakashi heads towards the half-destroyed Hokage's Mansion...

"Sensei, one last thing!"Naruto called back as he ran towards Kakashi.

Kakashi stopped and turned to Naruto...

"Yes?"

"I heard from these guys that came all the way from Kumogakure, their master was a host too.", Naruto paused, he started to feel sick, "I heard that Sasuke joined Akatsuki, now he's public enemy number one for all the five kages.", Naruto looked left and right and said quietly, "I also heard that theres a meeting coming up between the kages, I don't know what you can do with that info, but Sakura was really scared for Sasuke."

"Kumogakure..... and a Kage Meeting? An encounter between all of the members of the Five Great Nations...?"

"Well, if Akatsuki and Sasuke is the prime topic.... then you and Sakura might as well go to that meeting somehow..."

"If all goes well, we won't have to get in"Naruto said grinning, "I've got friends in high places", he said thinking of Gaara.

"Good luck Naruto...."

'I'll also be talking to Danzo about this..."

"Thanks sensei!"Naruto said running off
