Chapter 2: Genin Exams
It was already after class when Iruka-sensei woke up. Being the kind soul I was, I took care of his well being but he still gave me a lecture on how improper it was for a kunoichi (Female ninja) to be acting in such a manner. I was pretty much tuning everything out.
'Wonder what I should have for dinner tonight' I wonder.
"LISTEN TO ME!" Iruka-sensei screamed. But I still stared off into space. He gave up after ten minutes and send me home for the day.
'Iruka-sensei looks like a mad bull when he screams in frustration…oh' An idea struck my mind.
(Time skip to the next day) [Yoru: If you were wondering, I had Gyudon (Beef bowl) for dinner]
"We will now start the final exam" Iruka-sensei announced to the class "If your name is called, come to the classroom next door. The subject will be Bunshin no Jutsu (Clone technique)".
'Bunshin no Jutsu. A ninjutsu that creates an intangible copy of one's own body, without any substance. Since the clone itself doesn't have the ability to attack. Thus, can only be used to confuse the enemy. Can distinguish the clones from the original easily since the clones do not have shadows and will not disrupt the area around themselves with their movement (E.g. won't kick up dust, crush grass, etc.). Not a fan of this technique though'
It seems that it is my turn already and I'm the last student. I entered the classroom and saw Iruka-sensei and Mizuki-sensei seating behind a desk with two Hitai-ate (Forehead protector) laid out on it.
'Looks like one person failed'
"You may start Yoru" Mizuki-sensei said.
I did not like him one bit. He may look kind, but he does not give out this warm aura Iruka-sensei have. It is more sinister.
"Hai" I exclaimed. Performing the hand seals, a POOF was heard and smoke started to flood the room. It disperse and next to me were three clones.
I was really lucky that the minimum number of clones needed to pass were only three, anymore and I would have surely failed.
"Good job Yoru" Iruka-sensei smiled and handed me my Hitai-ate.
"Thank you Sensei" Grabbing the Hitai-ate. I exited the room and decided to go home since there were no more classes.
The academy outside was crowded with parents congratulating their kid. None came up to me. I have no parents...I can't even remember their faces before they died. It must be nice to have people who love you, no matter what.
I managed to squeeze my way through the crowd before catching sight of Naruto on the swings.
'Seems like my observation was right'
I walked to Naruto at a slow pace with my arms crossed, planning on what to say to him.
'I can't act too happy, it will just make him more depress. Neither can I be sad, he will think I pity him. Guess I will be emotionless and say nothing. Sometimes, silence is better than words. I just got to be there for him.' I nodded to myself before walking at a faster speed.
My plan was foiled when Mizuki-sensei landed next to Naruto and took him away.
'I really hate that gray haired man, he is like a creepy old man trying to pick up young kids' Glaring at the spot they were standing previously.
I left the academy grounds and made my way home.
'Naruto is not stupid. He knows rights from wrong. Even if he doesn't, Iruka-sensei will be there for him. The bond they have created is simply admirable. More like a family rather than the student-sensei relationship.'
