Children's laughter is heard through out the halls, manly coming from a classroom. This place is not an ordinary school as one would think it is, but instead it is an academy that young children come to learn the way of the shinobi. The door slides open to reveal a man about 5'8", is slim, and in his early twenty's. His brown hair is pulled back into a ponytail that is spiked up in the back; he also has a long scare across the bridge of his nose to both of his cheeks. He is dressed in a green vest with a blue turtleneck underneath and blue pants.
"Class! Settle down!" he shouts, quieting the nosey children down. It amazes me how he can quell such nosey people! They begin to take their seats, grumbling about stupid school and such; the room slowly regains its order. I have learned that his name is Iruka Umino, and he is what they call a chunin. I am still not one hundred percent what all the different rankings are but I will learn. At the moment I am in village named Konoha or the Village Hidden In the Leaves.
I let out a sigh. Who calls a village that? Their founder must not have been good with names…
As he takes rowel call my gaze looks down upon the new form of clothing that is given to me. Black shorts that end mid thigh, a black turtle neck shirt that clings to my skin, and a traditional Chinese style dark purple colored cloth with a trim of gold colored fabric, two gold clasps at the high neck keep the small top to gather. It ended just below my small bust, or rather the lack of; it hung loosely off my frame. Looking down at my feet my lilac eyes met a pare of black open toed sandals.
Another sigh escaped my lips at the memories of what brought me here.
Flash Back
The smell of sakura blossoms meat my nose as the wind silently blows, giving the garden a peaceful aroma. The pink trees are in full bloom, letting their light pestle flowers fall two the light green grass. A small smile tugs at my lips as I swing my bar feet into the chilled water of the pool that lies under on of the beautiful trees. Taking a deep breath my body takes in this peaceful day. Looking up at the crystal blue sky… what that's not crystal blue.
Instead of the beautiful sky, I find myself looking up into quite an ugly beings face.
My face contracts in pure annoyance.
The face looks down at me; a frown is on his pale pink lips. No, I don't think this person is even capable of a smile. All you see is a frown or some other morbid look, but never one of happiness. You would think that he never heard the word.
"You have been summoned gaki (a/n: brat)." He grows at me none to kindly; I smirk at his hate filled eyes.
"But why, nikibi-men (a/n: zit face)! It's such a nice day!" I wine like the mature twelve year old I am, his face reddens with furry at my insult.
"Baka (a/n: idiot), Lady Sada has summoned your pathetic existence, hopefully it is to expel you…" he mumbled the last part, but my sensitive ears hear his words. My smirk just grows at his irritation and hate to me. I find this amusing.
Jumping up quite suddenly, my head crashes into his un-expecting one. Sending him reeling back with a grunt of pain. For a split second I fell a slight twinge of concern for his pain… that was short lived as he lunged at me finally having enough of my taunting.
A devilish smirk is on my lips as I doge to the right letting the poor baka fall into the lake, giving him a very cold bath. It is early spring; winter still has a slit hold on the earth.
"See you later nikibi-men!" my singsong voice floats to him as he sends death glares towards my retreating figure. Living the baka in the lake I make my way back to the main house, sakura trees also cover the grounds, giving it a pink cloak.
Watching the petals fall over the grounds, my hand touches the nickels' that graces my neck, the one asset I have from my blood family.
Shaking my head of the past memories, my senses harden as I feel their presence. Shifting my gaze from all directions; figures begin to emerge from the shadows. I smirk evilly as they all attack in one big group; swiftly and quickly it has ended. The figures burst into pink petals, floating to the ground to lay emotionless once more. The master steps out from behind a tree. Her white hair flows gracefully around her young and curvy body, framing her pale blue eyes; her light pink kimono fights her figure perfectly in every way shape and form. She is beautiful, the absolute definition of a noble woman.
I bow to the master of the manner.
"My Lady I apologize for my tardiness." She chuckles at me.
"You know Hazen it is not wise to tease your elders, expressly one of the guard." Her face is calm and collected, but her eyes dance with playfulness. I chuckle also.
"It's very challenging my 'lady, you know how he flares at the most tiny of teasing…" I said standing striate once more.
With a wave of her petit hand she motions for me to fallow, I oblige her command.
She led me to a small room; taking a seat on a brown sitting mate I sight across form her. For as the baka has said earlier I have been left inactive, even how dull he made it sound; it's true.
Tea was placed in front of me by a maid silently sipping the worm liquid the pleasant taste fills my mouth, its taste is of herbal remedy meant for relaxation, and healing of the body. My gaze then returns to Lady Sada.
"Why have you summoned me my 'lady? Could it possibly that my, inveterate, punishment is being revoked?"
She nod's sipping her tea with grace.
"Yes… but for a penalty you have been assigned a mission." My lilac eyes grew cold, what mission could the elders have schemed for me? Any psychopath would be on the same path as to what they could have concocted.
She seems to notice my cold gaze.
"Don't worry, my word had more power then they… your mission are to observe a new world."
My eyes softened lightly, this still was a pain but less then what I expected.
"I wonder how this world will alter my power…" I ruminate over the possible answers. With each world I went to my powers morphed and grew stronger. It was only known by Lady Sada and I, the ones in power over are own world did not need to know that I am morphing. It would bring nothing but trouble if they knew… just one more reason for them to arrest me.
"Do not worry child that is most irrelevant! You're skills are very well balanced, even if most of them have a nocturnal twist." Her cheerful smile makes my pale cheeks redden slightly in embarrassment. But here words are true, my powers manly focused on night but my skills are very well arranged. Giving a smile I nod to her giving my silent answer. She nods as we finish are tea in silence.
End of Flashback
Even though I gave my word I would complete this mission, I still wonder why I have this tangible feeling left… it is unnerving to me. It must be years of paranoia finally fusing into a sixth sense.
My thoughts are interrupted as my name is being called, purple eyes shift to the open door. From here on out my mission begins!
Mission: Ninja in training!
