Kage's Mission Arc:

Chapter 11: Meeting Faintly

Naruto stood at the window of his office, overlooking the people of his village as they walked the streets and conversed with one another. He found it almost strange that some of them were the same ones that were calling for him not to be made Hokage yesterday, yet they were at peace today and enjoying the repairs that were made by the Wave constructors. He knew that they had no say in his appointment, but just how bi-polar were these people to say he was doing great today, yet yesterday they were out crying that he was unfit.

An ANBU Black Ops member appeared in a bowed position as Naruto looked at the Wolf mask from over his shoulder.

"Have you located him yet, Wolf?" Naruto asked in a monotone voice as Wolf nodded, yet stayed bowed.

"Yes, he was overjoyed that you called for the meeting and is just arriving in the building as we speak, Hokage-sama." Wolf said as Naruto nodded and waved him off while he disappeared as someone knocked on the door of Naruto's office.

"Come in" Naruto said as the door opened to reveal Tazuna. The man, and Inari who was right behind him, smiled as they walked into the office.

"So, what we saw yesterday was true then. You really did become Kage of the Leaf village. And I thought I only saw that because I was drunk off my ass…" Tazuna said as Naruto sweat-dropped and leaned forward in his seat.

"Well it's real, so what can I do for you two today?" Naruto said in a friendly voice as Inari ran over and hugged him. Naruto hugged the boy back after getting over his surprise.

"Big Brother Naruto, you really are a great ninja!" Inari said as the door to Naruto's office opened again. Konohamaru stood in the doorway with wide eyes and his jaw dropped, but that didn't last long as his eyes narrowed into a glare and his mouth formed a frown as he ran over to Naruto.

"Get away from the Boss!" Konohamaru shouted as he ran over, but tripped over his scarf once he was in range of them. Everyone in the room blinked at the sight.

"Who's this Naruto?" Inari asked as Naruto smiled and helped Konohamaru up.

"This is Konohamaru. He's the grandson of the Third Hokage." Naruto said as Konohamaru jumped back.

"And who's this guy, Naruto?" Konohamaru said as he and Inari began glaring at one another. Naruto and Tazuna sighed in unison and then looked at each other.

"I'm Inari. My grandfather is Tazuna the carpenter and I'm his apprentice. What's it to you?" Inari said as he got in Konohamaru's face.

"I'm Konohamaru. My grandfather was the Third Hokage and I was staring to learn under him before he… died. Why were you hugging Naruto?" Konohamaru asked as Inari and he glared at each other.

"Cause he's my big brother. He taught me what it means to protect those precious to me, and he defended and saved our country from an evil man named Gato. What's your story?" Inari said as Konohamaru backed up from him and gained a proud look on his face as he held his head high and jabbed a thumb into his chest.

"Naruto's my big brother. He taught me the importance of hard work and determination in order to reach my goals, and he defended and saved our country from a psycho-guy named Gaara." Konohamaru said as Inari glared at him.

"Well it doesn't matter because he and I formed a special bond when he left Wave country." Inari said as he crossed his arms and turned his head. Konohamaru glared and stomped his foot.

"Well that doesn't matter because before that mission in Wave he and I had formed a more special bond when he first started out as a Genin." Konohamaru said as Inari and he glared lightning at each other and was back in one another's face.
