Chapter 2: Yokotoro's Thoughts
"YOKOTORO-SENSEI!"
"Wha-"
"BONZAIII!"
Yokotoro grunted as he caught his student in his arms.
Kagami gave her sensei a big cheesy smile.
"Hi, sensei! Can we get ramen today?"
Yokotoro sighed. He set his student on the ground.
"No matter how many times you use that jutsu on me, I don't think I'll ever get over it… Having my student fall out from nowhere and onto me everyday can be-"
"Sensei! You told me that by practicing my jutsu, I'll get better at it everyday. So that's exactly what I'm doing."
Yokotoro sighed again.
So this is what I get for training a Bikuyu…it doesn't seem as rewarding as it did when I accepted the job…
"Yokotoro-sensei, turn your frown upside down! Or else I'll use my ugly reflection jutsu on you!"
Her sensei blinked. Then he did smile.
"Haha, alright then."
He looked over at a ramen stand, then pointed at it.
"Now, what did you say about ramen?"
Kagami grinned.
"Just because I'm being nice now doesn't mean you can slack off in your training later alright?"
Kagami chewed then swallowed a mouthful of noodles.
" 'Course not."
"Alright, good."
Yokotoro watched his student eating her ramen. She was a handful. Not to mention very childish. He remembered back when Lord Saiyon called a meeting for five chunin together.
"Good evening, everyone. It is good to see that all of you have made it. I have a request to make of the five of you. You see, I have decided to put my sons and daughters under your training, individually. I have chosen each of you, specifically, to train each of my sons and daughters. I believe each of you have something that will help my children reach their full potential as the Bikuyu."
The five chunin were unsettled. Training the Bikuyu was an honor, but how would they do it, and which child would they train?
"I see worry in your eyes. Please, if you do not feel comfortable with this, you may back out now."
One of the chunin stepped up and spoke.
"Excuse me for the interruption, my lord, but which child will each of us train?"
Lord Saiyon cleared his throat.
"I will tell you which of my children you will train only if you accept this request. This is to see if you are ready for what may come, and if you will be committed."
Yokotoro furrowed his brows. He mentally prepared himself for his decision, and remembered why he was here.
This is my chance…whether I get the depressed boy or the prankster, I'm still going to accept this. I have to! This is my mission…I must do it.
Yokotoro raised his hand.
"I'll do it, my lord."
Lord Saiyon raised his brow.
"Very well then. And what about the other four of you?"
The other four chunin glanced at each other, then at Yokotoro, then at Lord Saiyon.
"We'll do it, too."
Lord Saiyon smiled.
"Very well, very well. Come here tomorrow morning and I will introduce to you the child you will be training."
The five chunin nodded their heads and began to leave.
"Oh, and one more thing."
They turned around to face Lord Saiyon. He smiled again.
"Come prepared."
Yokotoro pondered on the memory while staring into his ramen bowl.
Did I come prepared?
He looked at Kagami again. She was still eating.
I was definitely not prepared for her jutsus…
He remembered the first time he taught her the basics. The day after that, she began creating her own jutsus, and thus, the teleportation jutsu was born.
He shook his head slowly. Along with the birth of the teleportation jutsu, came a world of shock and surprise. Kagami was able to travel through space and time by summoning a mirror and walking into it. She would choose a destination and would arrive there by appearing out of nowhere, stepping out of another mirror.
As far as he knew, no one could see Kagami's mirrors except for her. That's why he'll never know when she'll appear, and where she'll appear. Although, Yokotoro started to catch on to her pattern of where she'd appear. First above him, then falling into his arms.
As for the "when", he had no clue.
That jutsu may be annoying at times…but it'll definitely come in handy for Lord-
"Hey sensei, are you alright?"
Kagami waved a hand in front of his face.
"Huh? Oh…yes. I'm fine, Kagami. I just…I was just lost in a thought for a moment, that's all."
"Mkay. Oh, I'll pay for my ramen today."
"Oh...alright then."
Yokotoro sighed and furrowed his brows.
If I wasn't on this mission…I never would have thought of hurting you once…You're never going to forgive me for what I'm about to do, Kagami…
Dun dun dunnnn….What's to come? Next chapter coming soon.
