Kanzaki stood quietly in the hall while the rest of her classmates milled about, dealing with the post-graduation emotions in various ways. Some talked amongst themselves, others shuffled about nervously, at least one person did a little dance, surprisingly not Mai, and were those two over there playing Jankenpon? She shook her head slowly. Not that it mattered much to her. Everybody had their own means of coping, and as long as they worked who was she to deride them? 

Soon enough they were all being led into the Hokage's office, and one by one the various students presented themselves. Tsukai started off, followed shortly by Shikkaru and them Mai, bowing and introducing themselves one by one. She was next, she realized as Mai was wrapping up. [i]Breathe Kanzaki,[/i] she thought to herself, [i]It's no different than introducing yourself to anybody else of authority. You have nothing to worry about.[/i]

[color=0072bc]"Greetings my Lord,"[/color] she said smoothly with a bow, [color=0072bc]"My name is Kanmura Shizak-"[/color]

She froze mid-sentence. [i]She misspoke her own name![/i] Ruby embarrassment flooded her cheeks, and she heard at least one of her classmates chuckle at her expense. 

[color=0072bc]"Err, that is, Shimura Kanzaki. My apologies, Lord Hokage."[/color] 

Okay, so she had something to worry about NOW.
