Everyone Has A Dark Side [NejixOC]

"You want me to do what?" I asked, spinning back on my heel to face the silver haired shinobi. "Kakashi – there's no way that someone like myself is suited to be Hokage."

He laughed, rubbing the back of his head. "Well, you were the first to be thought of."

"Danzo not try to shove his way in this time?" I asked, faking shock. Of course he would have tried to have the council swing in his favor – though that never happened. "I can't accept."

Kakashi cocked his head at me, but smiled. "And just why not?"

"I'm not finished my training yet." I said simply, flipping my long black curls over my shoulder. "Besides, Tsunade's just incapacitated right now. She'll be fine in a few days. There's no point in having two Hokage's when one's just fine."

"But you'll be the youngest Hokage. Be in the same league as Gaara." Kakashi tried to persuade me.

I placed a finger to my lips in thought. "Nope. Still not of interest to me."

Kakashi just beamed at me. "I guess I'll just have to bring you back by force then, eh?"

I raised my brow. I should have started running. He hit the pressure point on my neck and I was out.

When I awoke, I was slung over Kakashi's shoulder with a raging headache as he walked down the dirt path towards Konoha; the giant gates up ahead of us. He had gone through the effort to bind my hands and feet with my own metal rope. "I hate you so much right now."

"I know." He smirked, adjusting his hold on me. "I'll just take you to the council and then you can go visit with your old friends. I'm sure they've missed you."

"You can put me down now," I said through gritted teeth. The gates passed by. I felt my jaw drop and eyes widen as I saw the remnants of destruction. My tone softened as I broke out of my rope, "no seriously." Kakashi quickly set me on the ground. I spun around, taking in all the destruction. "Tell me what really happened."

"Pain from the Akatsuki attacked the village looking for Naruto." No way.

"How long ago?"

"Four days." I began to walk through the crater and towards the Hokage monument. "Where are you going?"

"To accept." I stated simply.

Kakashi laughed as he caught up to me, "that's the spirit – Sixth."

"Don't call me that." My eye twitched.

"Welcome Makoto Furiyami, I trust that your training went well." The Daimyo asked, his smile a little too gleeful. I just nodded in response. Danzo was not in attendance. Something must have happened.

"I'm sure Kakashi has explained to you that you have been chosen to become the Sixth Hokage. Tsunade is currently in a coma due to her heroic acts while Pain attacked the village and we are in need of someone to continue on in her place. Do you accept the position of Sixth Hokage?" Homura asked, his hands clasped on top of the table.

"I accept." I said simply.

"Perfect," The daimyo exclaimed, "we'll hold the ceremony when the village is in a better state. I hereby dub you the Sixth Hokage! Your work shall begin tomorrow!" I was flanked by Guy and Kakashi after I left the room and entered the hall.

"Welcome back to Konoha, Makoto," Guy beamed, giving me a thumbs up. "Congratulations on becoming Hokage!"

"Thanks," I muttered as we worked our way through the halls to the outside.
