Slanting afternoon light cut through the office window, setting adrift a galaxy of dust. Kakashi Hatake, the Sixth Hokage, jolted awake at the sudden crash of the door. A genin stood frozen on the threshold, a bundle of papers held like a shield. In one fluid motion, Kakashi drew himself up, the casual sprawl vanishing into a poised, masked professionalism. The lazy warmth of the room chilled into a silent, waiting tension. His one visible eye—sharp, silver, assessing—fixed on the intruder, though he allowed one shoulder to remain slightly relaxed against the high back of his chair.
