I refuse to put a disclaimer here cause everyone should be bright enough to know that I don't own Naruto. I'm pretty sure that's why this is called FANfiction.

├Part Two┤

School. How I hated it. Not that I wasn't good at it or anything because I was actually very good at it. It just happened to be full of evil and sneaky twists as I would soon find out today, the first day back.

I was sitting in the back as usual, early as usual and waiting for the teacher to arrive. The only other person in the room was Sasuke Uchiha, of course. I didn't know why the heck he wanted to be early. He seemed more of a person that would come fashionably late.

We didn't talk to each other, ever, when we were the first ones here. I was always first there, no matter how early he came. In my mind, it was sort of like a challenge.

"Having fun?" I heard a sort of taunting voice ask. I shook myself out of thought to see the Uchiha's smirking face in front of mine.

"What do you want?" I asked, letting my tone show my annoyance.

He shrugged slightly, "You were completely out of it," he said, "You didn't even notice me coming. You're going to make one very bad Shinobi one day."

I blinked at him, "Do I care? What if," I leaned closer, trying not to laugh or smile, "I don't want to become a Shinobi? What if," I said with my eyes slowly getting wider as I continued to get closer to him, "I had a different path, already marked out for me? What if," I said and then got so close, our noses were almost touching. I guessed I looked pretty creepy but Sasuke and I were having a sort of staring contest, "You are an idiot?" I asked and then slapped him.

"What the hell?!" he yelled and jumped back.

"See," I said with an eyebrow raised, "You didn't even see that coming. So much for becoming…stronger," I knew I had hit a bad point in the guy.

His eyes narrowed into slits and he said, "What do you know?! Are you just LOOKING for a fight?" he asked with his voice a bit louder. Yeah I guess I got on his nerves. I also guess I'm one of the only people who can make him so frustrated that he could yell.

I tilted my head and smiled, "Maybe. Although with your temper, I could definitely beat the crap out of you," I said.

"Ha! I doubt it," he said and leaned back, his temper calming down as he crossed his arms and got a smug look in his face, "You know, you look like a freak all dressed up like that. Why don't you ever show any skin besides part of your face? You're probably as white as a freaking ghost!" he said.

I glared at him through my goggles. I had my reasons for dressing like this. I had my entire arms, up to the shoulder, wrapped in those sort of wraps. I also had my legs covered up to the knee in 

the same kind of wraps. Then I wore a pretty large kimono type of thing. It was a large shirt that covered my arms and then large pants that went to my ankles. I also had a black mask that went up to my nose and the normal ninja sandals on my feet. So basically I was completely covered besides part of my face.

I stood up, "You got a problem with how I look?" I asked.

He looked even more smug and he stood a little taller, "Yes, you look like a freak," he said. Nobody was in the classroom yet and nobody would for another half an hour.

"Then eat this you bastard!" I yelled and punched him square in the jaw before tackling him. We both sort of rolled around on the ground, once in a while I'd be on top and punching him and other times it would be him. It was sort of like wrestling and hurt like hell but I didn't care. He killed my last nerve and this was it.

"Miya! Sasuke! Break it up!" I heard the voice of Iruka-sensei say faintly. I was focused more on blackening the Uchiha's eye instead of paying attention to who was there. Neither of us stopped and so we were pulled apart. It was hard but we were eventually completely pulled apart even though I kept kicking which eventually landed on Sasuke's leg before the people holding us had to back away.

"Miya," Iruka-sensei said and it was then that I noticed that the entire class was there watching us with wide eyes, "Sasuke," he said, "Both of you go to the bathroom and clean up after yourselves before you go to the nurses office to check for anything serious. And when you come back, you two are in serious trouble."

I was a lot calmer now as we both gave each other death glares and walked out in the hallway. I could feel bleeding from my lip and it was getting soaked up by my mask which made me feel disgusted.

"You know," Sasuke said and I turned to glare at him, "I don't think you've actually attacked me like that since we were in Kindergarten or something like that. But that time I had tried to steal your glue for a project. I can tell you're bleeding under that mask of yours, why not just take it off?" he asked.

I glared at him, "And you would just LOVE to see me take my mask off when you know perfectly well that I don't let anyone see my face, right?" I asked him while rolling my eyes.

He sighed slightly and said, "Just don't do that ever again. I am trying to pass this year with perfect grades. I don't want some low-life messing it up for me." My fist collided with his jaw again.

"Oop! Sorry!" I said mockingly and then walked into the girl's bathroom that was directly at my right.



After going to the nurses office and letting them check to make sure everything was ok, I had to go in a different room before I pulled my mask down because Sasuke was there as well, we both returned to class normally.

"You guys are taking a test now," our teacher said and shoved two test papers in our hands. I finished it quickly, for it had been so simple, and then let my head rest on the desk in my arms.

Then when everyone was done and Iruka-sensei had graded them, he went up in front of the class.

"Ok everyone," he said, "Now the reason I gave you those tests were because it shows how much you know and your intelligence level for this project I am assigning. I am pairing everyone up to those that have equal intelligence. And you cannot change it no matter what so don't even try and protest."

He had started to read out pairs and sometimes it would be yells of protest, even though he said not to, or it would be yells of excitement or nothing at all.

"Miya Mitsuki," he said, "And Sasuke Uchiha."

Both of us stood up fast.

"WHAT?!" we both shouted angrily.
