Zalor walked around konoha quietly, heading to Ichiraku Ramen. It was her favorite place to go, not just because ramen was her favorite food, but everyone looked down on her, even though she did nothing wrong... It was her place where she could stay calm.

 

'Why don't you make friends, Zalor?' Gobi asked Zalor in her thoughts. Zalor looked down, still walking.

 

'No one wants to be my friend.... Why make them?' Zalor thought back kind of sharply. She looked around and spotted a paint bucket.

 

'Zalor.... What are you thinking...' Gobi asked sternly in her thoughts, but she ignored him and ran over to it and picked it up. She looked at the mountain with the hokage's faces on it and smirked.

 

"Heheh..." She snickered and headed straight to there.

"You performed it in your sleep then? Weird... I've never heard of that happening before..." Koukon muttered. "I guess it's the same as sleepwalking, or sleep-talking..."

"I've heard stories that the great Naruto Uzumaki could preform jutsus in his sleep." Tamaki muttered as he looked over the curse mark. Zalor blinked in surprise. She's heard many interesting things about Naruto Uzumaki, but not this interesting.

 

"Really? That's awesome!" Zalor said.

"I've heard a few crazy stories about him, too... From what I've heard, he was a strange kid. He was a great hero, though." Koukon added in. "It wouldn't surprise me too much if he would do that."

"Naruto's was one of the best ninja in a long time," Kinatama replied, now changing gears in the conversation like everybody else. "I still can't believe like jerks like Sasuke and Orochi have or now held the title of Hokage and not him," he added. He felt as though he should keep his distaste of Hana's lying to himself for now. Still, it resonated in the back of his mind. Why is it people have to be so secretive and dishonest? it doesn't help anything nor does it keep anything safe. It's just deceitful.

"Yeah... I heard that he spent his whole life trying to be Hokage, too. He definitely would have been better than Sasuke was..." Koukon muttered. "Sadly, we can't really do much about it. Hopefully a new Hokage will come along and get everything back on track soon. We really need that to happen..."

"Well, I know the perfect man for the job: me!," Kinatama boasted, jabbing a thumb to his chest. "Just like Uzumaki, my dream is to be Hokage. I'll be a better Hokage than Sasuke was and better than Orochi wll ever be!"

Koukon smirked. "Heh, it's good to see that someone's got that dream... It'll take a lot of work though, you know." Koukon informed Kinatama. "Didn't Zalor have the same dream? We'll see which one of you has what it takes, then... Hopefully it won't be a repeat of when Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha battled for the position, though..." Koukon sounded a little concerned at that possibility. These three all have their own goals in life... My life was pretty much set the moment I was born, and became the heir to my clan. Maybe I could change that, though... I can't be left behind by these three. He thought to himself.

((Next thing we know, there will be another "Everyone Wants to be Hokage moment, brought to you by Sawyer7mage. *Thumbs up*))

 

Zalor rolled her eyes.

 

"As if you'll become hokage. Orochi said only Uchihas can be hokage..." Zalor muttered. Tamaki shook his head.

 

"Both of you have a long way to go until then. For now, train." Tamaki said. He looked at Zalor.

 

"And I suggest you and Kinatama," Tamaki narrowed his eyes at the crimson bull. "Stop argueing about who is going to be hokage."

 

Tamaki then looked at Hana and smiled kindly.

 

"And for you, I suggest you get some rest." Tamaki said calmly.

"It's not an argument, Sensei. It's a fact. I will be Hokage. I don't give a damn about Orochi's rule. I'll kill that bastard if I have to," Kinatama fired back, clenching his gloved fists tightly. "Even so... if there's anyone I'd like to fight for the title... it'd be you, Zalor." Kinatama said, winking to his best friend. He then quickly turned his back to the group, forming a cross hand sign.

 

Shadow Clone Jutsu!

 

Outside the house, a shadow clone of Kinatama formed from a puff of smoke. The instructions he then recieved in his mind from his master led him to run towards the hospital once again. Enough lies, Hana. I know you're still there.

 

Back at the house, Kinatama turned back to his sensei and friends, looking casual as if nothing had happened. Hana's not the only one who can use Shadow Clones for info gathering. He thought. I'll have the clone find her in the hospital. Then, when she spills the beans, I'll retract the information from the clone and tell everyone hear what she said, so that her lies wont just stop at me.
