Kulkuno groaned as the alarm clock blared on. He extended his arm out, mashing a series of buttons on the clock. The cacophony of bleeping stopped, and he pulled the covers off of him. He slowly sat up in his bed, rubbing his head and yawning. He stood up and walked over to his refrigerator. He stuck his hand in, and pulled out a bottle of milk. He swirled the liquid around in the glass bottle,taking the cap off, and chugging down it's contents. He let a huge breath out as he pulled the bottle away from his mouth, tossing it behind his back. He shuffled across his room to his bathroom door, looking back at the mess of clothes, containers, and ninja tools scattered all over the floor.
"This place needs to be cleaned up..." he said with a sigh.
He turned back to the bathroom door, stepping in, looking in the mirror. He blinked his bright green eyes, and ran his hand through his matted black hair. He picked up his toothbrush and squeezed the remaining amount onto his toothbrush, throwing the tube into a trashcan under his sink. After brushing his teeth, he shuffled back over to his bedroom. He opened his drawers and pulled out a pair of boxers. He slipped out of his dirty pair, and slipped on the new pair, tossing the dirty pair into a pile of dirty clothes, placed conveniently behind his drawers. He pulled out a pair of blue trousers, and put them on. He pulled out a black t-shirt with a red and black yin yang on it. He slipped it on over his head. He pulled his sweatshirt on over his shoulders while walking out the door.
He stepped out of his apartment and looked around. He stepped down a flight of stairs, and was greeted by his friend, Asa. Asa was a girl with straight, turquoise hair, crystal blue eyes, and a driving love for Kulkuno. She was waiting for him at the bottom of the stairs, holding a brown paper bag. Kulkuno reached the bottom of stairs, greeting Asa.
"Here!" she said smiling, thrusting the paper bag into Kulkuno's arms.
"Thanks." he replied calmly, opening the paper bag. He reached inside, pulling out a plastic container of honey covered dumplings. He smiled, knowing that Asa's dumplings where amazing. They walked down the next flight of stairs together, Kulkuno scarfing down the succulent dumplings.
They had reached the Konoha Ninja Academy, calmly walking into the building. Kulkuno finished off the dumplings, throwing the container into the trash can inside. They walked to their classroom sitting down next to each other in the back of the lecture-style classroom. Their teacher walked in shortly after, setting a big stack of books on his desk.
"Ok, everyone, graduation is next week! Today we are going to be recapping all of the basic skills today. First, we are going to practice our kunai and shurikens, then, we will be moving on to the basic jutsus. Come with me."
The class slowly filed down the classroom, funneling single-file through the tiny doorway. They continued out towards the range, where they were all given a small supply of kunai and shurikens. They all lined up in front of a target.
"Okay everyone, start with your kunai." the teacher shouted to the class. Kulkuno, next to Asa, aimed all six of his kunai at the target. Finding the target, he threw all of them at once. He stepped back to see the results, seeing all six stuck in the middle. He smiled to himself, turning to Asa. She had a look of pure admiration on her face.
He's so amazing! He's just good at everything!" She thought to herself, taking aim at the target. She released her knives, stepping back to see the results. Four of them stuck in various spots, two impaling a tree behind it. She let her head down, feeling sad that she wasn't as good as Kulkuno. All of the sudden she felt a warm hand on her shoulder, and turned to see Kulkuno looking at her.
"You'll get it next time, I'm sure you will!" he said with a smile on his face. He watched as a smile spread across Asa's face. She nodded then returned to her aim. Kulkuno took his shurikens, and threw each one in consecutive order at the target, five out of six going in. He scratched his head and shrugged. He smiled to himself, and looked over to Asa, who was tugging on the sleeve of his sweatshirt.
"I did it, I got all six in!" she shouted with glee. Kulkuno looked at her with a smile on his face.
"I knew you could." he said calmly.
