The last few days had been some of the most stressful and nerve-wracking since she had become Hokage. It was a relief that Shukaku had remained sealed away, but the paperwork in regards to the incident was piling up on her desk and more was still due to come from those teams who had been stationed as lookouts outside the village and had just been called back. Snorting in disgust, she sat down behind her desk while waiting for Gaara, Johnny, and Jiraiya.
Today was the day the young man was going to be brought out of his cell and to her office for an interrogation. His punishment was also going to be decided based on the outcome.
"Hey," a very familiar voice called from outside one of the open windows.
"You're a little early," Tsunade told him, folding her arms across her chest as she turned her chair to face the newcomer.
Jiraiya climbed into her office through the window and smiled lightly at her.
"Better than being late, right?" he asked, taking a spot next to her and standing between two windows.
A faint grin twitched on her lips before sliding back into an unreadable line.
"Get serious," she ordered. "You know we're waiting for Ibiki and the others to bring Johnny up here for his interrogation."
"Ibiki?" Jiraiya echoed, a slight frown creasing his face. "Isn't that going a little overboard?"
"Would you relax? He's only bringing him up here. Besides, should worst come to worst, I can't think of anyone better to get information out of him, can you?"
The old hermit grumbled and crossed his arms, leaning heavily against the window frame.
