Mistakes

For the past few weeks I've been with the general submitting a request for a 'Science' division.

Science being something that had been ignored since the Sage of Six Paths, Hagoromo had appeared a century and a bit ago, as he revolutionized chakra and ninshu to a point that no one wished to focus on the almost prehistoric art of development that is science….

Morons.

Either way, I've been attempting to use my status of having found the sand shinobi originally, which I had to debate with the Heien's on, due to their attempt to steal my sweet reputation, as well as relating my initial example of how we may use the bodies to achieve a specific goal by beginning a science division.

As I had stated to the general my goal is to either figure out what makes the sand style work and replicate it with my own body, or change my gen - shit someone's outside, I'll put on a stupid grin, while hiding my documents and leaflets, lying scattered over the sofa, a desk and hanging from the ceiling, that were in preparation for any requests.

A voice with a deep, and slightly arrogant tone says in a loud manner " The general has sent me to voice an order to come to the council, based on your previous request on a division "

" Of course, I'll be going now then " I respond in turn.

I then calmly walk through the hallways to the general's office, where council meetings likely take place, since it means less travel and this is still merely a base for a general so not all features of a town can be introduced here, It is still annoying however that I hadn't been told the location I was requested to go to.

I meet the receptionist once more, who stutters out a report to me and tells me to enter.

Entering I see the general and ….

A bunch of old people ….

I mean damn around 10 old people, even a Hyuga is in here, plus two more 'younger' people who are simply guards but yeah….

The room itself had a clean wooden feel to it, a darker oak flooring and desks from a similar material, seating was made with cushioning that had flowers and such embroidered in dark colours on them, the chairs themselves being from white metals, possibly steel, quite expensive. The walls were painted in a deep orange, having clan symbols scattered across the wall, likely linking to the person in those locations.

" Greetings, General sama and the council, I was told I was called to the meeting based on my original request for a science division. "

All eyes turn to me and I swear one of these old coots whispers something about ignorant young people.

" Ah, so you decided to show up " she seems strangely irritated, I assume the person sent to bring me had taken too long, and or these 'council members' managed to already agitate her " either way let us begin with your portion of the meeting "

Sheets that seem to have already been placed here were lifted by the council members who skimmed through them.

After a few minutes of silent reading and most finishing the General states " Raise your hands if it is something your clans will abide by "

Almost the entire group keep their hands down, even my own Hyuga clan, which is mostly to be expected, however clans such as the Heien and Aburame supported it as they likely are more of the 'intellectual' sort

" declined, please exit the room Hyuga san and resubmit your request at a later date " I was dismissed by the General quickly.

Leaving the room, anger rose on my face, with my byakugan releasing, after all my plans had just been pulled to a halt.

So many weeks of requesting this and I was automatically removed thanks to this vote.

There is no point in this illogical anger, I will just take the bodies, the morgue is only at a close conner of the area,

Far enough to not irritate the General with smell, however, so it will still be quite the walk.

While I walk, I develop a plan on how to go about taking the aforementioned bodies.

From what I know so far the best plans of action would be simply to use clearance to enter the morgue and then retrieve the bodies, this plan would ruin my political standing and the view of most people in my surroundings, the other option is to use my already activated byakugan to merely avoid detection, remove the bodies then vacate the premise with some way of storage.

With this in mind I arrive already having 'scoped', or rather sensed, out my surroundings and just crouch under some windows that a soldier may see me through then slide through a door to the morgue, which is thankfully unguarded due to, again no one having thought of this manner of behavior towards corpses.

I enter a chilled room, with ice appearing crystals formed along the edges and corners of the room.

I can see that along the ordinary and cheap oak walls stone caskets line them like spores, held up by wooden and stone supports and rails to be easily removed and such, with two of the closest marked with non-land-of-fire.

I think I know which ones are the sand shinobi, however I begin by removing some of said crystals of ice, before unsealing the casket which still contains remains wearing clothing of the same kind seen by the sand soldiers, moving them so they are no longer in the caskets, removing some pieces of metal to signify a cremation.

These unsightly bodies are then dragged by me towards the door where I then realize a fault in my plan.

I have nowhere to place the bodies.

And I'm gone, rushing to my room, grabbing a basket, then returning and placing the bodies and crystals within, however creating some commotion due to the speeds I am rushing at, which may become a problem.

Now with the basket in tow I begin my trek back to the room, unimpeded.

Finally resting from the stress and anger, all accumulated I sigh heavily in relief and lay down on some seating.

Then I spring back up, realizing my mistakes, I hadn't re-checked for personnel and there was the commotion I made from speeding back and forth, very obviously I might add, between my room and the morgue…. SHIT.
