I do not own Naruto.
It was a regular spring day, sunny and worm. Me and my friend where walking home from school. We where laughing about something that happened in class, when a stretched limo rolled by, this town wasn't used to expensive things, or really high class things. The town I lived in was a small town, nothing really big happens, and when it does, the news is every where. The limo slowed down and the window rolled down.
"Excuse me ladies, I was wondering if you can give me directions." A males head popped out the window. He was young like in his 20, he had lined on either side of his face, and his eyes where pure black. I felt my self shiver from the coldness of this guy. My friend seemed to get her courage back and asked what her was looking form. Surprisingly he asked directions to my house.
"I live there" I said to him. He looked at me and smiled, well slightly.
"Good, is your name Itsuko?" he asked, I nodded my head. He stuck his head back in and the back out, but this time he brought out an envelope, it had my name on it. "in side this envelope will be every thing you need to know about Tokyo School of Dance, good day" he got back in and the limo drove away. I looked down at the envelope.
"You got it, congratulations! Lets open it when we get to your house, then we can through you a party!" Shizuro yelled. Shizuro was, well a party girl, there had to be a party fro everything when it came to her.
"It's fine, no party needed" I said. When I got home, I told mom the good news, and of course she cried. I rolled my eyes at her sappiness. I only lived with mom; dad was usually out of the country for work. We all sat in a circle as I opened the envelope. On the first page it read,

"Wow, this is so cool." I exclaimed.
"Hay this paper, it says, if you get good enough, you will start to have a career as a dancer. Lucky you" Shizuro said.
"well then you should have applied" I giggled.
"Well I did, but I have to pay for my scholarship, but they let me in." she replied smugly. It was quiet for a second be for me and Shizuro squealed and danced around in circles. The next day I was at the school getting a tour from two people, Sakura and Ino, they where really lively girls, and they kept fighting about a guy named Sasuke. They where really odd, odd in a funny way though. I sighed for what seemed like the 100th time to day.
"We aren't boring you are we?" Ino asked. Ino had blond haid, she was tall, and she constantly wore tight leggings. Sakura had bubble gum pink hair. I shook my head no. They both nodded.
"Anyway, so this is where your Ballet class room is here, I didn't know you where an advanced student," Ino trailed off. "Anyway, you have the hardest teacher here," Sakura peeked in and gasped.
"You have Itachi in your class." She said. "Itachi?" I asked. Surprisingly we never saw the door open and someone walked out.
"yes?" I males voice said behind us. We turned around and I found my self staring at a guy that looked like the other guy who gave me the envelope.
"She's the new student for next semester, she's going to be in your class" Sakura said proudly.
"Oh, is she." Itachi razed an eyebrow. Sakura just shook her head yes. "Well, why don't you meet your teacher, and the rest of the gang" he said as he opened the door. He motioned you to fallow him, I peeked in. There where all boys in the class, just great. I thought. Itachi was talking to an older man he nodded his head and then looked at me. I blushed from embarrassment. He told the boys to keep going.
"So, you're Itasko, nice to meet you. Why don't you join the boys for a second or two, I need to see how good you are." He led me inside and motioned for the pianist to stop playing. "All right boys, this is Miss. Itasko, she will be joining us next semester for ballet. Giver her good welcome. All the boys bowed. Creepy class. "Miss. Itasko, do you have your ballet shoes with you?" I nodded. I needed them for a class after the tore of the school. "why don't you slip them on and join us" he said. I put my shoes on and he motioned me to a bar. The bar had two other boys on it. One of the boys went and stood with the other, clearly he was trying to avoid me. "ok, Miss, I need you to do this combination, Batterie, Changement de Pieds, En Dehors En Avant Cabriole, En Dedans Rond de Jambe, Pointe Glissade, and to top it all off a Pas de Bourrée Jeté." He was staring at me when I was done. "well, they said you where good, and I believe when I see it." The teacher said. I bowed to him thanked him and said I had to go.

It was now the end off my vacation, sad as I was to leave my friends and go to a new school, I still had that excitement. It took me ten years of dance in order to get into this school. Sure I was happy, but there was one problem. I was the only girl in all my classes, sure it was strange, but I think it would be a great experience. My firend Shizuro was coming along, due to the fact that she also was accepted, but her classes didn't start as early as mine.
"Itasko, I don't understand what your so worried about, of what I heard, Itachi is one of the best, and you being the only girl in his class, well lets just say you get brownie points" Shizuro joked. Shizuro new I didn't look at guys, I wasn't the one to do that, plus I had no time, with all the dancing I did just to get into the school and be in top classes too.
"Ha Ha very funny, this school is not only about dance, and you know it, you saw yours and my schedule, I have to worry about my grades and the other classes too." I sighed out. Shizuro didn't care much for academic things, but she really was competitive in dance. She and I always competed in every little thing when we where younger, like who can walk faster with out getting caught in the halls, who can throw the ball the hardest, you was better in sports, who can drink soda faster, who can burp the loudest. But now since we are older, it's all about dance. Well for me that is. Shizuro said that she had a boy friend and didn't want to compete for one due to the fact it would be weird. So the only thing we compete for is getting better in dance.
"I will beet you this year, I shall, you hear me Itasko, I will beat you and I will make you suffer this year" Shizuro cackled out.
"Shizuro, you do know that I am in an advanced classes, while your in semi beginner, so technically I'm still beating you." I could help but laugh at the face she was making, it was something between hate, pain and annoyance. Through out the whole time we never noticed some one following us until he said something.
"I presume you girls are rivales?" We both turned around and found Itachi and some of his friends behind him, well I thing they where his friends, I didn't know him too well.
"Actually we aren't, we're friends, just really completive ones" Shizuro answered his question, she new I wouldn't; I was way to shy around boys. He just nodded, and then turned to me.
"You do know your way around here don't you?" he asked.
"Of cores she do-" Shizuro once again started to answer.
"He wasn't speaking to you" one of the boys said behind him. The boy had the same color hair and eyes, only he was shorter in height and hair length. Shizuro just glared at him and he just glared back.
"Back off jerk, I can do some serous damage to your crotch" Shizuro warned him. He looked a little startled and backed off. Shizuro just nodded her head in happiness.
"Well?" he asked.
"I…um…" I started to back away, like I said not very good with boys, and I put the word good loosely.
"Mr. Uchiha, are you tarizing this young lady?" My ballet teacher came up behind me and put a hand on my solder.
"no sir." He answered.
"You better not be boy, you will be in some serous trouble if you where" The teacher said sternly.
"I was only asking a question sir" he defended him self.
"Ok, oh, do me a favor and help Miss. Itasko warm up before class" And he walked off, not really caring if Itachi did it or not.
"Come, I'll show you to the studio" he said and started to drag me a long by my wrist. As we made our way to the studio, I couldn't help but notice that Itachi had a gentile but firm grip on my wrist. "So, you're really competitive with your friends, why exactly?" he turned and started to walkbackwards.
"…" nope, still can't answer him.
"Are you mute?" he asked. I didn't respond to him.
"hmm. Ok, maybe your mute, no that couldn't be. Itachi, do you think so?" The boys from before caught up.
"no, I just think she's shy, plus, she's surrounded by guys, that's probably why." She said. "Right?" he turned to me. I sort of nodded my head 'yes'.
"wow, Itachi, your really good at understanding them. I blushed, most boys never understood me, well or any girl for that matter.
"Dude you made her blush" Another guy pointed out. I don't if this was even possible, but I think I died form embarrassment. He dragged me into a studio and told me to put on my shoes. After I laced them up, Itachi hulled me up to my feat and dragged me to the bar with the rest of the boys.
"ok, um…lets do an Adagio. Ok these are the steps. ( People I will have a page devoted to ballet terminology, so if you get lost look at that page.) Batterie, Cabriole, Choreographer, Développé, Arabesque into Attitude, Ballon Battemen. There do that." He said and sat by the piono, he started to play and so me and the rest of the boys did the Asagio.
I up dated, but thats it. I'll have a new chapter up soon. Really soon.
