Chapter One: The Beginning
A small frail girl stared out the large glass window and at the clear blue sky, a small smile plastered on her face. Her eyes swirled not with the wonder and curiosity of most children, but paranoia and fear. She shook ever so slightly and flinched with every touch. "Akane-"The girl whipped her head around and met her mother's kind expression. "It's time for school." The elder woman smiled. Akane quietly left her bed and glided down the hall. Mikoto watched her daughters figure retreat downstairs and sighed, Akane had seen much more than what a five year old should have. She found herself often asking if she knew any other five year olds that walked silently.
Kakashi quickly jumped out of his covers and began his day as he would every day. He got up, he washed his face, he changed, he ate, and he began walked to the Academy. Today was nothing special, as was every day.
Like always he was the first one there.
He took his usual seat, up at the front, right before the teacher's desk.
"Alright, everyone settle down! I know you all must be excited but you all must calm down if you want me to announce the teams!"
There was a chorus of groans and cheers while a small handful of students remained silent.
"And finally, team 7 will consist of Hatake Kakashi," Kakashi lifted a brow at the sound of his name.
"Noharu Rin," a petite chestnut haired girl lifted her head, her short brown hair bobbing slightly.
"Uchiha Akane," the dark haired, pale faced girl made the smallest shift in movement but nothing more.
"And Uchiha Obito." The said boy appeared nowhere to be seen and Kakashi inwardly groaned, anticipating that this Obito boy was going to be a pain in the arse.
"You four will be led by a man named Namikaze Minato, does anyone else have questions?" Silence echoed the room and the instructor proceeded, "alright, your senseis will be arriving soon, please do your best to stay put till then." The instructor then flashed out of the room. "Talk about making a flashy exit." muttered a boy somewhere in the back of the room. Kakashi looked around for his teammates and caught the eye of the brown haired one. She quickly flushed red and looked down. Kakashi mentally rolled his eyes at the thought of being put on the same team as one of his fangirls. He looked for the Uchiha girl that he had watched over for so long. She looked frail and weak, her bony arms and legs were covered by a thin stretch of porcelain, almost white skin. Her dark signature black Uchiha hair cascaded down her back. She looked more like a doll than a Kunoichi. He forgot about everything when she glared up at him with her ebony eyes. In them he saw pain, suffering, power, and coldness, the same eyes that he held. Everything was the same as when he first laid eyes on her. After having looked at her from the back, after criticizing her for months, he decided that she would be the most capable person in his squad, being that one was a shy fangirl and the other was someone that didn't even bother to show up to graduation. He slowly strode up to her and the room fell silent. Hatake Kakashi wasn't the kind of person to start a conversation, much less to a girl. "What's your name?" he asked briskly.
"If you were paying attention you would've known." She snapped back just as curt.
"I forgot." Kakashi have expected her to snicker, but rather, she answered.
"I'm Akane."
"Kakashi."
"I know."
And that was the first vocal conversation between Hatake Kakashi and Uchiha Akane.
(A.N)
So how is this story coming along so far? I've decided on making this story mainly Kakashi's and Akane's POVs. This is my first time writing a fanfiction so I know it's rather uneven. It would be great if you guys could review! I've also decided to make Kakashi and his generation only five years older than Itachi's, rather than ten. I'm also looking for a beta so it would be great if any of you guys are interested in that. See you guys next chapter!
