The Academy

Sibling Rivalry

Chapter One: The Poor Ignorant Souls We Are

"So Kenny, are you excited for your first day of high school?" I asked looking over at my brother who seemed a bit nervous. We both stood in front of the town hall, him waiting for the bus to the local high school and me waiting for the bus to The Academy. Not just any privet school either, this school is so secret that you don't even know that you've been put into it until your there.

"Yeah I guess," he murmured back tapping his foot on the ground impatiently. His bus was late by nearly ten minutes now. "I wish the bus would come, I'm going to scream if it doesn't show up!"

I smiled at him as he reminded me of myself from nearly a year ago, a life time ago. Over the summer I'd grown quite close to my brother, whom I'd forgotten but loving him was natural and he told me stories from when we where little and I'd hang on his every word. Of course he could never really know me nor could I ever truly know him because my life has no real place for him, not any more at lest. Once I graduate I'll be sent all over the world with my partners Deidara and Sasori. Some day I'll be a ninja and…

The bus was suddenly parked before us in all its mustard yellow glory. It had nothing printed on it and you could not see the student's faces from the dark tinted windows. The doors opened and I was happy to see that my bus driver was not the evil man who was head of the Sound Temple but rather an old woman. I smiled to my brother and he smiled back at me unsure if it would be the last time we ever see each other again. Of course his bound to me was much stronger then mine to him.

So I got on and walked to an empty seat but the bus did not budge from its position. I looked at the bus driver who was staring intently out the open door at my little brother.

"Well," she said in an old rasp of a voice "you coming on or what?"

I'm sure both Kenny and I had a heart attack at the same time and keeled over dead.

He soon climbed on his brown eyes wide. I touched under my eyes and felt the gold scales growing in. As I inspected my face my brother just sat down next to me. He was silent and I was silent also. The only thing that was coming to my mind at this moment was (and pardon my French) WHAT THE HELL?! Ken's face had a similar expression

"Well," I said finally looking out the window as the bus traveled threw space and time. "This is going to be interesting."

"Why's that?" he asked and I looked at him and smiled.

"Because now we're both going to The Academy!" I cheered punching the air as my brother stared at me mutely. The bus stopped again and I looked up to see who was climbing on. The first thing I saw was a blond pony tail and the second thing I heard was "Shut up Danna I'm getting on as fast as I can yeah!"

"Deidara," I called and his head swung around and he smiled.

"Come on brat move it you can make out with your girlfriend on the bus!" Sasori growled pushing Deidara's back to get on.

"Yeah yeah," the blond grumbled back as they both sat down behind us since Kenny didn't move.

"Wait girlfriend?" Kenny glanced over at me beginning to relax and with a teasing look on his face. "So you two are going out?"

"What's this thing doing on the bus hmm?" Deidara asked poking Ken's head. Kenny gave him a dull glare.

"Aparently he's going to be a first year other wise why would the driver let him on?" Sasori said staring at Deidara as if he where a simpleton.

"Your mean today Danna yeah," Deidara sniffed and me and Kenny laughed.

"I miss you both!" I said reaching over the seat and giving both the blond and the red head a kiss on the cheek. Dei smirked and Sasori rolled his eyes.

"So this is pretty cool huh?" Deidara said going back to the conversation at hand. "Guess he's got Neutral chakra too?"

"Neutral what?"

"I guess so," I said ignoring my brother's question. "But we can't know for sure."

"True, his chakra signature is still too weak to know," Sasori said practically as the bus stopped again. And much to my chagrin it was Sakura, Naruto, Ino and a girl I'd never met before on the bus. Ino and the girl where chattering away probably not even paying attention to what was going on while Naruto and Sakura made there way to the rear of the bus and away from us Akatsuki.

"Wow this is like so cool that I'm in school with you now Ino!" said the new girl annoyingly loud. She was blonder then Ino but I think it was probably dyed that way and her eyes where a warm violet blue and her skin was tanned. She was frightfully beautiful and she reminded me of those girls in school that where especially popular and got every boy she wanted. I hate that type of girls.

"Oh hey Jen-Chan," Ino said as she walked by.

"It's Jenny-san to you Pig-Chan!" I growled standing up and she stopped and glared at me. "Don't you dare call me that again."

She was silent just glaring at me before casting her eyes away. "Akatsuki whore," she murmured under her breath but apparently not low enough for me to not hear. And if my brother wasn't in the way I would have knocked her teeth out, then she'd look real pretty! So I did the next best thing and flipped her off before sitting back down with three boys staring at me in disbelief.

"What?"

We soon had a full bus with Kisame being added on as the only other Akatsuki in the group. Seems Kenny and Kisame can get along rather well because they where laughing at each other's lame jokes till we got to the gate and that when my brother shut up to look out the window. Actually I think everyone looked out because the whole campus was completely different from last year.

Rather then looking like a small town it was a deep lush rain forest. You could see the tops of the five towers over the tree line as the busses drove a skinny cobble stone road down to the main square. I was amazed to see buildings in between the trees like the ramen shop and the Black Widow club. I glanced over at Sasori but he didn't seem surprised and Deidara I think was just gazing at the new surroundings.

"They change the layout of the school yearly," Sasori said before I could ask. I mouth became an O as we traveled along.

"Why is your school in the wilderness?" asked the new girl "I hope we don't have to like sleep on the ground or something."

"No, we have dorms," Ino replied and I rolled my eyes at the fact that Ino had failed to tell her friend that this was not a prep school.

"Oh good I was worried for a second!" said the other girl.

"Poor ignorant fool yeah," Deidara murmured and I giggled evilly.

Soon we where within a line of busses in the large rotary parked in front of the five towers waiting for the first day of classes to begin, the first day of our lives. So we waited almost everyone on the bus silent except for some obviously confused first years but they where ignored by upper classmen.

Then the doors where opened and we where set free. I lopped arms with my brother said 'see you later' to my roommates and headed for the Fire Tower with him so he could be assigned a class. Hopefully he'd be in the Akatsuki if we where truly lucky! And up the stairs we went up to the Head of The Academy Tsunade-Hokage-sama. Yeah mouth full of a title eh?

"How much longer?" Kenny asked as we where followed by other first years and there chaperons.

"Just two more flights if I remember right," I said and took his hand and we jogged up the rest of the way…well he was running I was just jogging which was fast for an untrained civilian.

We soon made it to the top of the stairs and into Tsunade's large office. Ino glared from across the room standing next to her friend. I gave a just as venomous look and stood in the back of the group with my brother who looked nervous again.

Tsunade cast her honey brown eyes up at the room of students and greeted us with her opening lines and began her splee about what the first years had gotten themselves into. There where a few shocked first years but not quiet as shocked as Ino's friend. I almost smiled at her reaction but I had to act the part of Akatsuki and kept the giggle bubbling inside down.

And so she began to name off where the lovely little first years would be going. Of course there where like a million Fire Students and a million more Wind and so on with the Towers. As the group became smaller the temple students where named off. Two here three there but so far no Akatsuki or Sound temple students, which didn't surprise me because you really had to be special to get into either of those classes. This put my hopes up for Kenny to be in Akatsuki.

"Renee Kurotentei," Tsunade said and the blond girl next to Ino looked up.

Wait a second I thought looking over at the girl Koru means Dark and tentei is God…put them together…

"You will go to the Akatsuki temple as I know you have family there correct?" Tsunade asked and the wide eyed girl nodded while Ino slowly stepped away from her once friend.

"Holy crap your related to Hidan-kun!" I blurted as it dawned on me. (So her hair really is that white.)

"Unfortunately," the girl replied.

"Okay," Tsunade said so we'd shut up "and lastly would be Kenneth of course…and you'll be going to…" she made a slightly sour face and I wondered why because it wasn't really a disappointed face more like annoyed and pity put together. "Sound Temple."

My eyes widened and I wondered where the cameras where because I must be getting Punk'd.

A.N: I know the chapter is kind of short but it kinda ended itself XD Anyways yes we have two major new characters. Well not really we did meet Kenny in year one but his character was never moved forward. Anyway this fic will have a major theme moving threw it (but I'm not telling you what it is yet) and the two love triangles will be further explored so I hope this news makes you all happy.
