5 Hokages

The Desk (Part 1)

"I did it for the good of...OW!" Shimura Danzo said. The first and second Hokages had been throwing potatoes at him for the last two days. He knew he should have given up on trying to explain his actions, but he was hoping that if he got through to them, they might stop with the potato throwing and turn him loose since his punishment had been decided on by Uchiha Madara who they had rather famously not gotten along with.

It wasn't as if he'd really had the Uchiha in the Nidame's teaching line killed. He might have arranged things so they went on missions that were slightly above their skill level. The fact that they didn't make it back wasn't exactly his fault, since the Hokage had the final say on all missions.

His main problem currently was the fact that neither Hashirama nor his brother were inclined to listen to him at all. After Madara had made his claim of murder and kidnapping, Hiruzen had gone and tattled on him just like back when they were kids, and those two traitorous teammates of his had backed him up. As always, Hiruzen came up smelling like roses despite the fact that he'd been "Lookout" like he always was, like that time they'd pranked the Shodai Hokage's wife, or the time they...OW. Those potatoes effing hurt.

"Hokage-sama." a messenger who ran up to the First Hokage said. "Hokage trainees Uzumaki Naruto and Sarutobi Konohamaru are requesting your presence."

"I may as well go and see what they want." Senju Hashirama said as he dropped the potato he was holding in the bucket by his feet. "You staying here Tobs?"

"Nah, I may as well come with and see what sort of mess they got into this time. This got boring several hours ago." Senju Tobirama said as he too dropped his potato.

Disagreeing with the Senju while they were dead was well and good, Danzo reflected, but when they were alive, well, the Valley of the End came to mind.

&!&!&!&

"What do you need now boys?" Hashirama asked. Having those two around made what would have otherwise been a rather boring job interesting.

"Someone found your original desk in storage, and we had it pulled out for you." Naruto said cheerfully as he pointed to a very familiar and somewhat battered desk that time had not been kind to.

"That's nice of you boys." he said as the other Hokages who had turned up to see what the surprise the boys had for the First Hokage was. "I remember the many happy hours Mito and I..."

Madara looked up at the ceiling and started whistling, Tobirama started looking at the floor, Hiruzen found his fingernails to be extremely fascinating, Hiruzen's teammates quietly refused to look at each other, Tsunade quietly stood there blushing.

"Hey, is that the desk from storage room three?" Minato who was the last to arrive asked. "Man, I love that desk. Kushina and I used to..."

"Used to what?" he asked, hoping the answer wasn't what he thought it was.

"Well, um, Naruto was conceived on that desk." Minato said, sounding somewhat embarrassed.

"Would anyone else care to make a confession regarding my desk?" he asked the group who were trying their hardest to look innocent.

"I got bored waiting for you to get out of a meeting, so I had one of your secretaries." Madara finally stated.

"Ladies seem to like the desk for some reason." Tobirama finally said with a shrug.

"Back when we were young, and somewhat innocent, Koharu, Homura and I, well we, ahem." Sarutobi said.

"Me and Dan..." Tsunade finally stated.

He strode out of the room, grabbed the first Chunin he found, and dragged him back into the room.

"I want you to take that desk outside and burn it." he ordered as he pointed to his formerly beloved desk.

"You want me to burn THE desk?" the Chunin asked, sounding horrified.
