CH. 1 MEETING TO YUHI YUSUA…BUT WHY NOW?
"15 years and 50 days? How do you know that exactly?"
"It's a possibility. Her life could be shortened or lengthened, but it's around there."
"But…how am I supposed to tell this to her."
"Just don't."
"Don't?"
"Yes. For her sake."
"But I'm her mother, I should-"
"I mean out of no disrespect but, please, please don't tell her."
She sobbed silently, tears forming in her hands. The doctor placed his hand on her shoulder.
"I'm sorry."
Then he left, her staring through the glass window, her baby girl sleeping peacefully in the cradle.
"She's gonna find out sooner or later…" The mother mumbled to herself, knowing that there would be no cure for this disease that has risen upon her daughter.
I yawned as I took the covers off of me.
I had that dream again.
I shook it off from my mind and put on my ninja clothes. I had a fishnet shirt on, then black shirt over it. I also had black capris and black zori to match my outfit. Plus, my hair's black and its shoulder length, but layered. My eyes are black too, but my pupils were a dark gray color. I walked over to my night stand and stared at the picture. A picture of two smiling faces, the younger girl on the older girl's shoulders. If I could recall correctly…it was me and my mother. Perhaps…I was wrong. She died on my 5th birthday, but it's not time to be reminiscing. I should be getting ready for the academy, where I'll become a genin for sure.
I passed many people, all of them minding their own business. I got to the doors and walked in, all the kids shouting and talking happily. I never fit in their groups, so I stayed alone, but a smile still spread across my face. The sensei, known as Ruuya-sensei walked in.
"Alright kids, form a single line and I'll call you one by one to see your clone jutsus."
All the kids rushed, wanting to get their headbands already. And like always, I just walked there, not in a hurry.
"Lynnako Ruzumiya."
I looked up, hearing my name being called. I walked to Ruuya-sensei, nodded and walked in, him following after me.
"Alright Ruzumiya. All you need to do is a simple shadow clone jutsu. 3 is the most."
"Ok."
I formed the handsign, saying, "Shadow Clone Jutsu," in a low voice. Two appeared.
"Good."
He smiled at me and handed me my headband.
"You pass."
"Thank you."
I smiled at him and took the headband thankfully. My days as a cloud genin has begun. I tied it around my left thigh and walked down the hall, other kids still waiting impatiently for their turn.
I wonder who my teammates are gonna be tomorrow.
I looked up and see Yuhi Yusua walking my way, but I just kept walking. He stopped infront of me.
"Hi. Are you a genin now?"
I looked back at him. Is he talking to me? But if he is…why now?
"Yeah. And you?" I said lowly.
"Yeah." He smiled at me and I felt my cheeks get hot.
Not as in a blush, I was embarrassed. No one has ever acknowledged me, so why now? I had a feeling that he was probably dared to do something like this.
"Well, you wanna take a walk around?"
"Me?" I blinked at him dumbfoundedly.
"Of course you." He smiled at me once more that made me feel awkward.
Funny awkward, like I just rode a roller coaster 1000 times.
"S-Sure." I gave him a smile and we started walking.
It was a really awkward moment.
"I got a question Yuhi…"
"What is it Lynnako? I got all your answers ready!" He smiled with a thumbs up.
"What made you talk to me today?"
His eyes gave a kind of shock look and he stopped.
"…"
"I'm sorry."
He looked back at me. "For what?"
"I shouldn't have asked you that. Well, let's continue our walk…or something."
Yuhi then gave me a big smile.
"Do you really want to know why I chose now?"
I looked at him, surprised. Wasn't he shocked for a moment? Is he willing to tell me or is he going to make something up?
"I guess…"
He smiled and put his arm around my shoulders. "I chose to talk to you now because for some odd reason, you seem more alive today."
Now that threw me into shock. My eye twitched a bit. "I seemed a bit more alive today?"
"Yeah." He still had his smile on his face.
"Th-Thanks…" I said, not so sure if I should really be thanking him or not.
"No, I don't mean it in a bad way. Like…um…how do you explain it?"
He removed his arm from my shoulder and crossed it over his chest, thinking of the right answer.
"You seem happier than usual."
"You mean I'm always gloomy?"
"Well…no…you're not always gloomy. You look it."
"I don't get it."
"Uh…"
"Hey Yuhi!!!!!!" A girl voice yelled. She then ran up to him and clinged onto his arm. It was Mina Hiranta. "Is she bothering you?"
"No. It's alright Mina. I'm fine."
"No you're not…you're talking to her when you should be making out with me."
Mina made a kissy face and Yuhi tried to pull her off of him.
"I guess I'll leave you two alone." I smiled and walked away.
"W-Wait Lynnak- get off of me Mina!!!"
"No way!!!!"
I giggle a bit, knowing how much Mina has a crush on Yuhi. Well, not just only her, a bunch of other girls. I only see him as a guy. Nothing more.
AN: I guess this is all for now. hope you enjoy.
