Chapter 1: Such a Drag
'Kami! This is such a drag. Why do I have to teach kids? Ughh' thought Shikamaru as his alarm went off. He slammed the snooze button but Tenmari started shaking him.
"Get up. Or ELSE…" she grunted.
'Or else what' he thought. But never would he say it out loud. That is certain suicide. So he rolled out of bed and went to the bathroom to get ready for the day.
After getting dressed, he sat down in the kitchen and flipped through his new students, Jun, Hanako, and Daisuke, profiles. Jun stood out the most. He already knew the Kage Shuriken no Jutsu. That's an S-ranked jutsu!
'Who the hell taught him that? Most people haven't even heard of this jutsu.' He made a mental note to look further into that.
Next was Hanako. She knew the Kage Bushin no Jutsu, no doubt from her dad, but got her affinity from her mom. A suiton user would be helpful, and hopefully counter Jun's kanton affinity. And finally we had Daisuke. He knew some defensive jutsu, even though he had the wind affinity, but other than that, he didn't stand out with his skill. Even though he had the best grades, he still could be less practical than the other two.
Shikamaru glanced over at the clock. 'Shit! I'm gonna be late. Such a drag.' And with that, he headed to the coffee shop.
