Chương 4: Naruto : Uchiha : Chapter 4
"I'm sorry miss, it's my fault. I shouldn't have forced you like that and disturbed you from your work. Thank you for answering all my questions so nicely and giving me your time.
I'll take my leave now…" he said softly with a slight sniffle, rising up from his bow to wipe his nose sloppily with his sleeve. Her astonished eyes watched him walk past her table silently and throw the form in the dustbin kept to the side.
...
Guilt crept up her heart and she bit her lip. No matter who he was, he was still a little child and didn't know what to do without his parents to tell him.
She broke her thoughts to call out to him, only to see him already gone and the now empty hallway making her guilt increase two folds.
Her train of thoughts went on, unaware of a pair of narrowed stoic amber eyes watching the empty hallway quite intently from the sidelines.
Tobirama Senju stood by his door, his arms crossed while he leaned with his back to the wall. He had come out to see what this conversation was about and to get his next set of paperwork that hadn't been brought in, only to catch an earful of the last part of the conversation.
Needless to say, with what he heard he wasn't pleased in the slightest. This was his village, and no child should be treated the way that boy had been treated just now. For some matter, the boy seemed a little familiar to him, but he couldn't quite place his finger on it for the life of him. And that annoyed him to no end, he wasn't a man to be left with unanswered questions. Everyone knew that about him.
He walked up to the receptionist's desk who looked back to see who it was tiredly. Her eyes widened in shock at seeing Tobirama himself standing there, albeit not looking at her instead his eyes now dead set on the dustbin kept to the side. She stood up scrambling the messed up piles of paper hurriedly, knowing how eyeing the man could be for such trivial matters.
"H-Hokage-sama!? What can I do for you?" she asked with a slight stutter of nervousness and cursed herself for it inwardly. He paid her no heed and walked to the dustbin that had caught his eyes now, and picked out the small slip of paper laid on the top.
His eyes narrowed in on the sloppily filled form. Especially the small wet spots now marring it's surface, no doubt made by the tears of that innocent child. He focused his thoughts on the form itself and read it thoroughly as he was used to like always.

...
Tobirama, the man known for masking his emotions to the utmost across the elemental nations couldn't help the mall smirk that was now etched on his face while his eyes read past the words in pure curiosity.
The cute way he had filled out the form with, and how he had forgotten to add his own picture to it made it quite clear to him that the child didn't have the slightest bit of idea how to fill a form and had tried his best regardless of that, to the best of is knowledge.
The small tear stains had smudged up his already sloppy handwriting a bit but he could make out all of it quite clearly.
He was surprised for a moment to read his father's name but now it made sense to him why his secretary had been so adamant about sticking to the rules, particularly with him.
His eyes left the form and looked up to the nervous secretary. His gaze narrowed in on the woman who shivered a little, gulping softly in nervousness from the man's intense stare.
"Why didn't you let the child meet me?" he asked stoically, though the dangerous glint behind it wasn't lost to the woman.
"Y-You see Hokage-sama, there was no time slot left in your timing register and…" her voice was cut off by the piercing voice of the man whose eyes had narrowed even further at her slight stuttering voice.
"I have a little free time in between my appointments. Surely a few minutes between any one of them could have been discerned for the child since the matter was so trivial as to just needing my stamp of approval. So why?" he asked again in a steel like voice making her gulp down her nervousness and try to speak but he cut her off again.
"You hate him." he stated simply, leaving no room for arguments. Her eyes widened in shock when he slapped the truth in her face and she shook her head vigorously. He paid her lies no heed and continued on completely undeterred.
"He is his father's son, yes. He has his grandfather's blood coursing through his veins, yes. He is related to two traitorous shinobi of the village, yes." he said stoically and watched her look at him speak as if he was an alien of sorts, no doubt shocked by his words, but he didn't stop.
"But he is a part of this village. He has done nothing wrong. He doesn't even have anyone to teach him how to fill a form properly…" he spoke pointedly, slapping the form on the desk for emphasis over his point.
The woman flinched at the slapping sound but peered her gaze over the cutely filled form, feeling even more guilty and ashamed than ever before.
"How would you feel if you were an orphan and someone slapped that point straight into your face, her words full of disgust and loathing?" he asked coldly.
She couldn't meet his accusing eyes with her own and turned them down to her feet in shame. She shrunk visibly under his stare that he held for a moment, before picking the form up and walking away.
But just before he walked down the stairs he stopped for his final parting words.
"Go home and don't return tomorrow." he said blankly and the secretary snapped her neck up to stare at his back with horror stricken eyes.
"H-hokage-sama?!" she stuttered out in shock and he glanced back with his lone visible eye to make himself quite clear now.
"You're fired." he said simply and walked down the stairs leaving a stunned and shell shocked kunoichi behind.
