At a time

Chapter 10

Kazemi yawned as she got out of bed. The sun decided to ignore the fact that it was pouring it down yesterday and greet her with the most horrible rays it could muster. Stretching her arms she moved to the bathroom to get ready for the day.

After getting ready she moved for the kitchen to make herself some toast because apparently you can have a toaster but not a first aid kit in this place. Sometimes, she really had to stop and think about why that was.

Spreading some butter onto the toast she sits down on the dinner table to take a bite. She loved breakfast, the perfect time to eat and plot the occasional world domination plan.

Kazemi contemplates the effects of the Wave mission. Anko was still talking to her taking head that is regrowing a body at a rapid pace for some reason. It's very disturbing to look at, a grown woman's head on a three foot body. Still, the woman was nice enough and Kazemi is pretty sure that at the rate she is growing she'll be back to normal in the week.

And then there was that other missing-nin that mysteriously disappeared after Ibiki got word that he was in Konoha. There's a story there and Kazemi will find out what it was someday.

There was also that cool lightning blade Asuma got from the guy. She isn't sure who got it in the end but with the way Sasuke has been looking like his entire life wasn't a massive tragedy she can guess Kakashi pulled a few strings to get it for him.

Sakura has also been in a very good mood as of late with the way she's been all too happy to place as many explosion tags as she can every time they train. While other seals elude her the explosion tags come to her as easy as breathing. Sure, she can't make a storage seal but who needs those when you can blow up half of Konoha?

Kazemi never did get to gather all the rookies together for that gathering and team Gai is always training or on missions nowadays so she can't even see TenTen. At least Neji and Sasuke haven't come into contact with each other. Silver linings and all that.

Tapping the table she hummed lightly. The Chunin exams a month and a half away. Realistically, her team should've already received notice of it but since their teacher is Kakashi it's to be expected.

Dropping her plate in the sink to clean when she gets back Kazemi makes way to the door. Though her team should've immediately been payed for their mission it was difficult to rank since it changed from a C-Rank to an A-Rank to a maybe S-Rank. She hopes it's the last option, the amount she'd get from it would be able to buy her so much sealing paper.

...

Her team and the others sit in the council chambers as the clan heads argue with the elders for the sixth time in the last five minutes. What were they, children? She's pretty sure Neji and Sasuke could have a more reasonable and productive conversation. Kazemi had more important things to do than listen to whatever was going on here.

The Hokage cleared his throat as the council settles down. Couldn't he have done that at the beginning? Gosh, maybe this is why Danzo walks all over him.

Speaking of the devil he was sitting next to the Hokage with a menacing expression. Every once in a while she can sense him giving Sasuke a glare but whenever she looks over to see it he's back to his normal resting bitch face. Kazemi could see why he was so pathetic as to hate a child and murder their entire bloodline, Danzo just had that type of aura.

However, she did catch him eying the sword on Sasuke's hip. Kakashi said it belonged to Tobirama, the second Hokage. Since Tobirama was Danzo's sensei she can assume he isn't happy at all about Sasuke getting his sword.

"Hatake Kakashi," the third Hokage starts, "please give a verbal mission report on the events of the Wave."

The white haired man nods and steps forward. "Team 7 accepted the mission to the Wave approximately four weeks and two days ago. We left the village at zero eight hundred hours and travelled for one hour before Kazemi started singing an ear bleeding song for two hours. Five minutes after stopping her singing we got into an argument on whether or not her wallet was a frog or a toad. It was a toad, obviously--"
