Red Nara

- So? I already know Iwagakure put a bounty on me a long time ago, so I can't be surprised," I raised an eyebrow questioningly, glancing up at Inoichi and Co.

- Read it," he practically ordered.

Shrugging, I read the printed hieroglyphics and froze, amazed at the difference between what I'd expected and what I'd actually seen - instead of the registration number in the book, it read "Mizu no Seirei" (Water Spirit). I swallowed the sudden lump in my throat (only shinobi in the upper echelon with a rank no lower than A are given such sonorous nicknames) and lowered my gaze.

Name: Ryo Nara

Well, it was hard to expect that enemy spies wouldn't be able to find him out if they wanted to.

Rank: Chunin (Anbu?).

No Comment. Even enemy villages doubt the validity of such a rank.

Age: -

Strange that there's a dash - in my opinion, you can ask almost any young kunoichi in Konoha and you'll get a lot of information about not only my approximate age, but also my preferences, employment, and significant accomplishments. Unfortunately, the village's rumor network is working at its best.

Loyalty: Konoha, Nara clan.

Uh-huh, only a dumbass wouldn't guess by the name.

Danger Rank: A.

A... I felt my eyes begin to round as well - not so long ago it was just a C!

Known elements: Suiton, Raiton, Caton, Doton, Fuuton.

Five elements? What the fuck are the five elements?!? Just because I can use a couple jutsu from each doesn't mean I can use them!

Chakra reserves: Kage

It was hard to expect otherwise after the performance in the desert. It's more like being glad they didn't put a level higher than kage.

Reward: 30,000,000 ryo for dead or alive.

- Thirty million ryo? That's what they give for each of the sannin! - I whispered in shock, staring at the zeros on the paper in disbelief.

I was on par with Hiruzen's disciples in what I could do with a bounty on my head!

Notes: Iryo-nin. Possibly a half-breed Uzumaki. Responsible for killing Goro "the Butcher". Categorically forbidden to engage in combat when there is a large supply of water nearby - strongest susceptibility to suiton. Got his nickname by causing a giant wave (fifteen meters high and a hundred wide) in the middle of a desert scorcher.

Tz, I shouldn't have let that observer go - he learned too much, including some things I'd rather leave in the shadows. Of course, there are almost no specifics here other than a strong suiton, which won't make the job of the hunters after my head any easier at all, but too soon that bounty came out.

- Looks like old fart Oonoki took the scandal too personally and assigned me the blame," I sighed, leaning back in my chair and massaging the bridge of my nose.

- More like he put a target on your back," Choza hummed, "I guess the failure to destroy our genin and the subsequent sludge poured on Tsuchikage played a part in that.

- If you get killed, who am I going to dump the title of leader on?
