Tamotsu walked through the borders of Konoha with the same demeanor he normally had when he lived there. He was here to visit his home but made a beeline for the Kage's Tower to speak with Renima. As he walked down familiar sights, Tamotsu smiled softly as looked at the familiar sights. It had been a while that he had seen all these things and it made him feel comfortable. He sighed as he missed all the familiar scenes and smells. Soon, he made it to the imposing large red tower. He smiled softly as he had missed the tower more then he had ever missed anything. Except for his home, he missed it incredibly.

He walked into the tower as the ANBU looked at him with soft eyes. They bowed to him a moment with looks of desperation on their faces. Tamotsu's smile faded as he looked at them and sensed something off. He ran into the Tower and up the long spiraling stairs to the floor where Renima's office was. As he ran down the hall, he passed by the office which was his. It still had his name plate on it. He pushed on forward till he saw Renima's door and pushed it open with force. As the door slammed into the wall, he could see the falcon sitting on the desk beside it's paling master. Renima looked up and gave a smile.

"Tamotsu... the Tsuchikage. Who would have thought it?" Renima said weakly.

"Renima!" Tamotsu ran over to his cousin and then took a knee. "What's happened to you!? What's wrong?" He looked him over and began to take his temperature. His temp was high and Tamotsu began to worry when he took his pulse.

"You can stop. It's not gonna work. They don't know what's wrong with me. And I doubt you'll know what's wrong. It's all natural anyways." Renima said as he was sweating cold sweat. "You worry too much. Stand up."

Tamotsu began to tear a bit and then nodded. "So... how's my brother?" Tamotsu laughed a bit as he tried to keep himself from releasing his tears.

"I could be better, paperwork kills me." Renima joked as Tamotsu laughed but could not hold back the tears any longer knowing what was coming along.

"I hear you. I have a ton back in Iwaga-" Tamotsu stopped when Renima stood up.

"Tamotsu, from the day... you came in here to.... learn from me.... I knew you'd make me proud and accomplish... something. Before I.... I want you to have... something. Do what you... will with them." Renima opened the top drawer of his desk and pushed a button hidden inside of it. As he did, a section of the wall opened up and revealed a hidden storage place. He limped slowl over to the wall and then pulled out 4 blades. "These are the other swords of my clan. I want you to have them." He walked up to Tamotsu and handed him the four elemental blades of the Wind Shire. "Do what you will, but keep Enoreth. That way me and you will always be brothers."

Tamotsu took the blades from Renima as the Hokage walked back to his desk and sat behind it.

"Renima... I can't..." Tamotsu spoke softly looking down.

"You complain alot.... just do it. You'll be a great Kage. I know you will... just... believe in yourself." Renima said as he rested his head on the desk looking up to Tamotsu smiling.

"I promise I will." Tamotsu nodded.

"Good... My scrolls... are... yours... broth..." Renima's eyes closed and his arms Shook as he fell to the desk. Tamotsu looked on, slowly crying as he walked up to the desk. He placed the swords down on the desk.

"You... were always the better man... you know that?" Tamotsu smiled briefly before he picked Renima's body up. He carried the body out of the office past two guards who looked on, saddened by the happenings. "Renima has died due to Natural Cuases. He has left me everything. I refuse the title of Hokage. Let the village pick who they want. Furthermore, let it be known, that Iwagakure, will not attack Konoha under any circumstances lest they strike first. All of Renima's belongings including his scrolls are to be shipped out to Iwagakure. I expect this done soon." Tamotsu did not shed a tear as the guards nodded.

He walked out the tower and looked at the village before him. "Renima... I want peace for you. For now, to repay my debt, let me bury you where my home is. Here, in my village." Tamotsu walked ahead with the body of his cousin in his arms. He would bury him on his own terms and kill anyone who disturbed him.

(Thread Done. Konoha is now without a Kage. Iwagakure has a Neutral stance with Konoha.)
