CONVERSATIONS WITH LEGENDS
The ninja of Mist phased through him inconsiderately, and made her way towards the seats in the front. As she did so, a wickedly amused grin appeared upon the suited man's aspect. Rows of teeth, almost as if they continued past his ears and beyond. Then just as he composed himself, another spoke. The Sannin possesses a child, who'd been quite rudely referred to as a mere 'guest'.
"Of course, Miss Rize! A vital citizen as well is always welcome!"
He'd fixed his remark, but who exactly was this fellow to be directing such important figures? Where was the Hokage? But disregarding such matters the crowd remained hushed, awaiting the meaning of such a momentous event. The suited man silently approached the steps at the edge of the stage. Each step echoed agonizingly amongst the silence, deafeningly piercing the quietude upon each gradation of the stairs.
"Now then! I suppose it's time to begin."
The man spoke finally, reaching the top of the stairs after what seemed like an eternity. Despite his voice being rather quiet, it seemed as though each individual present could hear his voice. And then,
He spun. Quite flamboyantly in fact, to the center of the stage. Once there, he stopped, and faced the crowd. A few more moments passed before finally he spread his arms and addressed the crowd with a large grin.
"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! Today you're here to bear witness to the inauguration of the new Hokage!"
Rabble cheered in anticipation of an enthusiastic new leader, bent on improving their lives and village. Confetti launched from the back of the stage, encouraging their excitement. But the situation seemed odd. Elder representatives of their clans in the reserved section murmured amongst themselves. When did we vote?
"And without further ado, I present your ruler... MOMOKO HYŪGA!!!"
Some wondered who exactly the suited man had just called out, while others looked visibly upset. Elders yapped their agitation and surprise to each other, but while the mob was distracted, something else entirely had been happening.
The suited man bubbled and convulsed as blue liquid oozed out of his form and exploded weakly, boiling and popping, and turning into a blue fire that somehow remained viscous. The crowd grew silent once again as the man laughed, changing his form into something completely different. Several inches shorter, and possessing a separate gender entirely, the man revealed himself to have been Momoko the entire time!
Her lilac locks blew slightly in the wind as the blue substance faded away, Red eyes beaming at her new subjects. A delighted and malicious grin filled her youthful visage. A fantastically frilly white dress enveloped her average form, held in place by a large red bow tied backwards around her waist. The crowd oooed at the spectacle, while the elders near the front grew increasingly distressed.
They spat insults at the girl — things like 'how could we have voted for a foolish child like you!', and 'a mere child as the Hokage? Laughable'. After a few moments of this, the ground suddenly shook. Momoko's eyes grew wide, her malevolent smile threatening the well-being of her dismayed representatives. The blue oozing flames returned, forming a huge hissing aura, frightening all but the most steeled individuals who shook in fear. Was she really to be the Hokage?
