Yuki
It was anthoer boarning day. Quite frankly I was ready for it to be over, not to go home or anything, I didn't have one. I was just tired of sitting around. And now Iruka Sensie is getting on to Naruto again! Ugh, what are we gonna have to do thanks to him now?
"Time for a transformatin jutsu test! Everyone line up! Transform perfectly into me!" Iruka said. Ugh, not this again! I thought to myself as I got up to go to the front of the class with everyone else.
"Alright, First up Sakura Haruno." The girl in red with the pink hair went to stand infront of the teacher.
"Transform!"
"Very good."
"Did you see me Sasuke?" She said turning to the top student in our class. Tsch! Why is every girl our year fawn over him. He's just another guy. I don't see the point. I thought to myself as I wachted him successfully pull off the justu. Yes I too am a girl but that doesn't mean I get the point. I knew his whole story about being the last surviving member of the Uchiha family, but that still didn't make him any cooler to me. He was just another stuck up pain in the ass with an attitude problem.I didn't realize I had been glaring at him the entire time until he looked back.
"See something you like? Take a picture. It'll last longer." He said as he took a place next to mine. I was last in line of course.
"Why would I wan't anything from you? You may be an Uchiha, but that doesn't mean I want anything to do with someone like you. You're just a stuck up pain in the ass."
"Whatever." he said all too coolly. Great I pissed him off. Now hopefully he'll just shut up and leave me alone. I spoke all too soon. "What makes you think you're any better than I am."
"It's not that I think I'm any better than you. Your attitude just pisses me off. Like I said before, "You're nothing but a stuck up pain in the ass."
"Oh really now? And what does that make you? A snot-nosed little brat?" That's it.
"Shut up or I'll beat you to a pulp."
"And what makes you think you can accomplish that?"
"You haven't seen my fighting. You don't know weather or not I can beat you."
"I'm pretty sure I can. And with out breaking a sweat."
"I'd like to see you try."
"You're not worth the effort."
"Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! I'll -"
"Yuki Aburi." I'm not going to let him get to me.
"You know what. You're not worth my effort either Uchiah." And with that I performed a perfect transformation jutsu.
Sasuke
Hmm... So she's may not be all that clueless. Not like the other girls any way. I said to myself as I watched Yuki perform her justu perfectly. As usual. If I weren't in this class, she'd be the top student. Still...
Yuki
School's out. Tommorrow's the graduation exam. I should train a little extra tonight. It's not like I have a home to go to. Not here anyway. I'm completely alone eversince my parents died and I was sent to "live" with my aunt whom I had never met. She took all of my inheritance and kicked me out. I've been living on the streets ever since. I earned money by doing odd jobs and used it to buy clothes and food and other necessary items. So I'm doing pretty well for a street rat.
I went to the spot where I usually trained and began. I kept at it untill I could no longer stand. Then I climbed the nearest tree and slept in it's branches.
Sasuke
Our graduation exam is today. I trained last night so I shoud be good. As walked to the academy I noticed movement in the trees near me. I looked to see what it was and noticed that someone was sitting up in the braches. I climbed the tree to find Yuki. She was asleep. I debated weather or not I should wake her and decided to go ahead and do it. I shook her shoulder gently. I felt guilty about waking her though. She look so peacful. As soon as my hand touched her, her facial expression changed. She began to cry.
"No... Mom... Dad., Don't leave me. No...No.." I shook her a little harder.
"Yuki, wake up. Yuki. You need - AHhhhh!" we both yelled as we fell to the ground. I quickly grabbed her in both my arms and flipped my body so I landed on my feet. When we landed, I was holding her bridal style and she was clutching my shirt.
"Are you ok?" I asked her.
"Yeah, thanks."
"Were you sleeping out here all night?'
"Yeah, I guess I did." She said blushing and rubbing the back of her head. "I had meant to just take a short nap after training so hard,but I guess I slept through the night." I had a feeling she was lying but I pretended that I believed her anyway.
"Come on. Let's go. We've got a test to pass." I said and continued on my way.
Yuki
I can't believe he bought that story. That was close. The last thing I need is for someone like him taking pitty on me. I continued on my way to the academy. Today would decide weather I graduate and become a ninja or not. I had to pass it, no matter what!
"Alright everyone. To graduate you have to do a Shadow Clone Justu. When you're called come to the next room." Iruka Sensie said.
Ha! Peice of cake! That's my best one!
"Alright. Yuki Aburi,"
And of course call me as soon as that thought pops into my head. I thought as I went into the next room. Mizuki Sensei was in there too.
"Alright, Yuki, you ready?"
"Yes, sir."
"Alright then go."
"Shadow Clone Jutsu!" I managed to create three clones perfectly.
"Well done. I would expect no less. You pass!" I took my head band and went back to the other room as I tied it on my forehead. I took my seat as the next student was called.
"It's a good look on you," Someone said next to me. It was Sasuke Uchiha. As usual.
" too." Wait did I just- Dammit.
"Well I got something other than an insult out of you. That's surprising."
"Yeah, and it's the only time that you'll ever get anything like that out of me." I said then continued to stare off into space. I didn't want to talk to him. All he ever does is piss me off. Just then the incident at the tree popped into my mind. No, no, no, no, no! I am NOT going to think about that ever again. EVER! I thought to myself. That only happened once and it will never happen again.
"You're thinking about the tree incident arn't you?" He inquired.
"What, you read minds too?"
"No, it's just the look of disgust on your face."
"Yeah? Well since when are you so interested on what's on my mind?"
"I'm not."
"Then stop talking to me." I was rather satisfied when he didn't say anything. We sat there until they dismissed us. I went to the training grounds again. I hate being stuck at second best. In the graduation exam, Sasuke created four clones. He's always one step ahead of me, but if I get stronger, I can best him. I was practicing my kuni and shuriken throwing skills when I sened someone watching me.
"Who's there?"
"Just me." It was Sasuke. Again.
"Are you stalking me now?"
"No, I came here to train. You just happened to be here when I decided to. So don't flatter yourself."
"Wouldn't dream of it." I said and continued throwing.
"Hey."
"Hmmm?"
"Wanna just have a practice fight. Just spar. Taijutsu only. No Ninjutsu or Genjutsu. Deal?" I thought about it for a second.
"Fine."
"Alright then. Let's go!" He came at me without a seconds warning. I managed to put my guard up just a split second before his fist connected with my face. I reached my foot out to kick but he dodged it quite effectively. I then went for a puch of my own. He grabbed my fist in his hand and I did the same to his. Risking dislocating my arm, I spun to kick him. He dodged backwards, letting go of me. I did the same. We went at eachother again and again, each time it came up at a draw.
"You've gotten better, Yuki."
"Heh, the last time we fought like this we were kids. So of course I have. If it weren't for you I would be the top student of our year." We went on, blocking and dodging, hitting and kicking. He finally broke through my guard, his fist hit me in the face. I flew back several feet and acam to a stop at the base of a tree. I got up and went at him. I kicked him in the shin but he punched me in the stomach. I cried out as I felt something crack.
"Face it, Yuki. You're going to lose."
"Not if I can help it." I was running out of breath, My heart was pounding and my lungs burned. My body hurt. But I wasn't going to be beat.. Not by him. That's when I mabe my mistake. I ran at Sasuke blindly, not thinking. He grabbed my arm ant threww mw to the ground.
"I win."
"No, you don't." I said as I kicked his feet out from under him. He landed on top of me. I roled over, putting me on top and strattled him so I could pin him. Then he rolled over ontop of me. By the time we finished doing this Sasuke had me pinned. my legs were wrapped around his torso and each of my arms were pinned by my head. His knee was on my pelvis. But I kept struggling.
"Yuki, it's over, I've won." When I didn't stop struggling he put more pressure on his knee, therefor putting more wait on me. I cried out. "If I press any harder, I'll break your pelvic bone." I quit strugglenig then, aknowladging that the fight was over and Sasuke had won. "You done now?"
"Yes, now get off of me." he got up and I did as well.
"It's late. We should head home."
"Right. I'll see you later." As I started walking away I fell and cried out in pain. Sasuke was by my side in seconds.
"Are you all right?"
"Yeah, but I think I twisted my ankle."
"Can you walk on it?"
"I can try." I stood up with sauske's help and put wait on my hurt foot. I only cried out in pain and fell again.
"I'll carry you to my place. We can take care of it there. You can stay the night if you want."
"Thanks." Sasuke bent down and picked me up. We walked to his house. Once we got there he sat me down and I stood on one foot as he unlocked the door. He picked me back up again and put me on the couch.
"Stay here, I'm going to go get some ice for you."
"Okay." When he came back he took off my shoe and put the ice on my ankle.
"The swelling should go down shortly." he sat with me until it did then bandaged it up for me.
"Why are you being so nice to me."
"Because I don't have areason not to."
"Whatever." Said laying my head on the arm next to me. Sasuke was saying something else but I passed out befor he could.
Sasuke
"Well -" I started to say before I notice that she was already asleep. I couldn't help but smile. Awake she looked rather feirce but asleep she looked innocent and vulerable. Like a small child. I got some blackets and covered he up and put a pillow under her head.
"Goodnight, Yuki." I whispered to her then took myself to bed.
