I would like to thank omote renge for reviewing and pointing out my mistake. I slipped up and will try to fix that. For now, here is chapter 2.
Naruto woke up like it was any other day. The sun was almost rising; leaving the sky with a light glow. It was only when she looked at his calendar did she realise that his mission was starting today. It was still around 6 in the morning and class didn't start till 8.
With the two hours that remained, Naruto thought that it would be best to make sure that she was in character. After binding her chest, she put on a dark blue skin-tight shirt and black leggings before putting the jump suit on. Styling her hair into messy spikes, she finished her look by applying make up across several visible scars littering her body.
She arrived a couple minutes before the ceremony was to begin and noticed several uneasy glances from parents and confused stares from the children. She placed her arms behind her head and casually waltzed in to attend the ceremony. Throughout said ceremony, she yawned, knowing how this worked. It was bad enough that she had to go through the system again, but this time as an idiot; it was going to be tough on her.
The ceremony ended and the classes were divided teachers were assigned. It seemed that her old teacher had retired and in the time she wasn't attending, a new teacher by the name of Iruka had taken the vacant spot. Class started and introductions were made. Listening carefully, she soon found out who were apart of a clan and who wasn't. Though just because her assignment was to protect the heirs and heiresses, it didn't mean she wouldn't protect the others.
When her turn came around, she went to the front of the class, hand behind her head, and gave a large grin to the class. "My name is Naruto Uzumaki and I love Ramen and one day I'll become the Hokage!" She announced. Satisfied with the stifled laughter, she inwardly smirked and headed to her seat. She soon realised that she was seated next to Sasuke Uchiha and Sakura Haruno. 'This'll make things easier for me.' She thought to herself as she barely listened to the rest of the class.
Already knowing the class material, she gave herself time to observe the class. Normally when observing, she would do it from a distance and hide herself, but no being undercover, she had no other choice than to be subtle.
She learned that Shikamaru Nara was a lazy genius, a prodigy if he tried. Sasuke Uchiha was a brooding mess, probably due to the recent massacre of his family. It saddened her as well. Not only had she lost a close friend, but also trust in her instincts. Hinata Hyūga was silent and shy, but she knew better than to think she was weak. Ino Yamanaka seemed to have a friendly rivalry with Sakura over Sasuke, why, she couldn't understand. Kiba Inuzaka seemed wild but loyal, a good ally if need be. Shino Aburame was mysterious at first, but she quickly learned that it was a sort of insecurity due to he use of bugs. Chōji Akimichi was continuing to eat, even through the lesson and Naruto guessed it was to keep his chakra up. Lastly Sakura. She seemed weak and honestly didn't know why she had to pretend to like her. It would have been better if she didn't, but orders were orders. Sakura seemed to only know how to screech, though he had to admit that her knowledge of theory was above average.
Quickly loosing interest in class, she looked at the empty page in front of her and began to doodle something that seemed that it might be writing. It seemed that the Hokage put the optional illiteracy in not only for good measure but also to keep her amused while the hours slowly ticked away.
With an hour left of school, the class went outside for an evaluation of throwing skills. Most students were able to get 4 of the 5 Shuriken on the target, though not one got a bull's eye. Sasuke's turn was before hers and managed to get a bull's eye once with the rest-hitting close by. She heard him mumbling about how it wasn't good enough but shrugged.
Naruto picked up the Shuriken up and narrowed her eyes. To make it seem believable, she'd have to hit the target once while the rest went over the top. Happy with her plan, she did just that before looking up at her teacher and rubbing the back of her head with false embarrassment. Iruka seemed to just sigh before moving on to the Kunai throwing.
Again, most got 3 of the five on target, the Uchiha got 2 bull's eyes and Naruto aimed to miss all but one, getting a bull's eye with the last one and saying it was luck.
School ended and their parents were picking up all their children. Well all but two. The Uchiha and herself. Out of curiosity, she followed him to the pier before making a face and walking towards her own apartment.
As she went, she heard the sound of glass shattering on the wall next to her and noted that a drunk had thrown it at her. Checking her surroundings, she noted that they were close to an ally. Luring the drunk into it, she got the drop on him, knocking him out and made it look like he collapsed due to the alcohol.
Arriving at home once more, she sighed, wishing it was easier, but alas, she was the jailer to a demon that attacked the village 7 years ago. She wasn't stupid. She knew the demon was the nine tails, the supposedly most dangerous being in existence, made almost entirely of demonic chakra.
With a sigh, she looked at her ANBU fox mask she'd hidden in a draw for safekeeping's and away from prying eyes. With that, she showered and prepared herself for bed, wanting the mission to be over soon but knowing it was just starting.
