More than a week had gone by since the events that occurred at the end of the Sennin Games and in that time not only was Raizo not found in the wilderness of the Land of Wind, but ANBU Captain Uziuke, the man that Shin would wish to take on the title of Kazekage, also was lost. He had no idea where they were, but he had to have faith that they would be okay. In their absence something had to be done. The village elders feared that the disappearance of the previous Kazekage was an omen for dark times to come, and as the sole victor chosen by the Eleventh Kazekage, Chikamatsu Shin was selected unanimously to take on the title of Twelfth Kazekage.
Stepping to the door of his newly situated office Shin took a deep breath. He was not expecting this, but he had to do what was best of the village. As he opened the doors looking out the crowd million of flower petals would begin to rain down from the heavens. The streets were lined with beautiful arrangements and vibrant with life and color. He took a few steps forward, the blue train that pulled behind him accentuated his signature silver armor. A crown of soft baby blue desert flowers was worn on his golden locks of hair. He blushed as the crowd would cheer and mummer. He wasn't ready for this.
`You deserve this Shin.` The voice of his twin sister filled his mind as Kohana and the others stood with him but a few steps back.
Letting out his breath he would raise both of his hands, waving to the masses of Sunagakure no Sato before beginning to speak.
"It is today, the day in which we must shift and change like the dunes of our desert home that I come to you all, my fellow brethren of Sunagakure no Sato, as nothing more but a humble man with faults and insecurities like all of you. For those of you who may not know my name, I am Chikamatsu Shin: The Overseer of the Chikamatsu Clan, and previous Medical Chief of the Omni Prime Medical Facility. I woke today as your Sennin, but as the Sun reaches high noon I now stand before you with the weight of the world on my shoulders and incredible steps left for me to follow."
"It is the decision of the Council of Sunagakure that brought me to be speak with all of you, and for that I am eternally grateful, but I must announce that I cannot fulfill this position alone. Before we continue I must acknowledge the advisors that I have called to stand by my side as we navigate this world together from atop the new dunes of Suna."
"Tanatsu Neko, my pupil and assistant within my duties of being a Sensei to many of you. I hereby decree that you shall be the Sennin of Homeland Security!."
Shin would step to the side to gesture at his friend Neko so that the crowds could get visual of their new Sennin. Continuing on he would gesture at the second Sennin and then to the third.
"Hailing from Kirigakure where he was the Head of Research and Development, having traveled the world and gaining the respect of not one, but two, Raikages to the point where they called him an advisor, and recently taking on the role of Medical Chief of Kekkei Genkei & Genetics Research and Development for the Omni Prime Medical Facility, I hereby decree that Miroku Akkuma shall be the Sennin of Internation Affairs!"
Shin stopped for a moment and would give the third Sennin a soft smile before continuing.
"And finally, to help compensate for the mistakes that occurred under her watch and to officially work as the Ambassador and Delegate for Sunagakure's relations with Konohagakure, I hereby decree that Lady Uchiha Asuka, the Fifth Hokage, shall be the Sennin of Education. I am excited to see the work and dedication she brings to the Toraono Dojo and how she will expand upon the traditions we carry with us as Sunans."
He would step forward again.
"It is with great resolve and dedication that I announce this to you all, the heart and soul of Sunagakure no Sato, that I, Chikamatsu Shin, am your Twelfth Kazekage! My life will forever be dedicated to protecting and guiding every single soul that calls Sunagakure no Sato their home, regardless of whether or not you consider yourself a Shinobi. I aspire to bring our village into a new era of peace and understanding. I cannot do this alone, it is up to us all to wake up every morning and decide to be better than we were the day before, and I believe, with you all at my back, it will be achievable!"
"لتكريم بريموس والرجال الأوائل، نحن سكان القرية المخفية في الرمال يجب أن نجعل أسلافنا فخورين!"

To honor Primus and the First Men, we of the Village Hidden in the Sand shall make our ancestors proud!
