Friendship... is not something you learn in school. But if you haven't learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven't learned anything. ~Muhammad Ali
Hello, Reyna here from BakaandTenseiProductions. Of course, I had one of my many baka moments, I didn't explain things enough, so for that amazingly awesome reviewer, I have to tell you the meaning of Akiko's actions. She is a girl, born a girl, and always was a girl (No sexy jutsu here), and one of the last things she tolded her father was that she was no longer his little girl. In her mind, that means, she can live a boy. And in the (or this, or mine)Shinobi world, the male ninjas seem to be seen as stronger. So she pulls a Haruhi (I hope you get that referance) and just lives as boy. Which she never really says she is a boy, but she never she's not a boy. Cause she's mute. So people just assume she's a boy because of her boyish face. (Kinda like how Haku is a boy and looks like a girl, but opposite).
It had been a few days since I had arrived from the hospital. Though not leaving because the medic nins wanted to make sure I was good to leave, I learned one important thing. I'm super allergic to pollen. I didn't have to worry about it much since I was living in a village that was snowy normally. But in Konaha, there is pollen EVERYWHERE. It was not enjoyable signing papers that were soon turned into tissues. The Hokage is in for a small surprise whenever he gets my papers... Oops.
The next day was my first day at the Ninja Academy, and I can tell you I was nervous. I wasn't really scared, considering I had no reason to have real fear. But it was my first day of school. I knew how to read, write, and do math. But, I didn'lt want to get bullied all the time like I did at the Village, but I was a whiny weak girl then. I'm Aki now, no longer Akiko, strong, capable. But I felt cold inside, I didn't know if it was from nerves or my mind and body getting used to not having Akiko around.
So, I decided to do what Haku would have told me to do, "Just smile and keep going." and Hikari, "Life is like snow, it will be cold and dreary at first. But when Spring sets in, its warm and everythings comes to life in happiness and color.""
I smiled at the thought of both of the things that Hikari and Haku told me. I walked inside and went into the room that the Hokage wanted me to go into. I held my breath, and walked in with a small smile. A man with a scar across his face, a ponytail, and a smile greeted me.
"You must be the new kid I was supposed to get. My name is Iruka Umino, it's nice to meet you, Aki." he said. I gave him a small smile and a slight bow. He gave me a strange but kind look.
"Would you like to introduce yourself to the class?" I stood there with a small smile looking up at the man. Are you kidding, man? I'm mute if you can't tell... I thought to the man, but still kept the outer small smile. There was a girl in the second row that looked awfully familiar.
"I CALL DIBS ON HIM!" she said pointing at me. "..." I sweatdropped keeping my small smile.
"No way I want him!"
"He will be mine!" I looked at Iruka-sensei, he sweatdropped, and looked at me with eyes that almost said, 'I'm sorry you have to experience the pain your about to go through.' I looked back at the class and scanned faces.
"You can sit in the empty seat next to Naruto. Naruto?! WAKE UP!" He yelled at a blond boy who yelled, immediatly woken up and falling off his chair. I slowly walked to my seat next to the blond boy, sat down, and gave him a small smile. He gave me a strange stare.
"Who are you?" he asked. I took some paper out of my bag.
I'm Aki Yuki, nice to meet you!
He read it and looked up at me. "Can you not talk?" he asked. I shook my head. "Naruto! Stop distracting, Aki-san!" Iruka-sensei exclaimed. After a few hours over Tactics and the Mathmatical formula for throwing a kunai (angles, force, etc.), we were on at lunch. I was hiding alone, the girls would chase me, asking me to choose one of them. They were really scary. I ate my small crude sandwich, and tugged on my hat. Suddenly, I heard a sob.
I followed the sound of the sob. I saw a girl with shaggy pink hair that was crying. I took my small sketchbook and pen I ended up taking with me everywhere, and wrote her a note. I put a hand on her shoulder, she jumped and looked up at me. I gave her a smile. I handed her the note and she slowly opened it, seemed almost scared to see what was inside.
Don't be sad! And don't cry, because things always get better! Life is like snow,it will be cold and dreary at first. But once Spring sets in, its warm and everything comes to life with warm and happiness!
She read it, and looked up at me with a small smile, almost like mine. She seemed happy, and I walked away, I felt good, that I did something nice. 'This is the type of thing Haku would do. I hope your proud that I'm living on being kind to others like you. I really hope your not dead, but if you hear this, I really hope your proud.' I thought to myself. But my feeling of being a nice person was interuppted by a sneeze. And another. And another. 'l really need to invest in some allergy medicine.'
When we went back to class, it was time for Taijutsu.
"Do you know any Taijutsu?" Iruka-sensei asked me. I put nodded though I knew some from Hikari, she taught me the basics.
"Okay, we'll start your sparring with Sasuke, so we'll know exactly what level your at. I moved my eyes to the young boy with black spiky hair and obsidian like eyes who smirked at me. I gave him a small smile and I gave a slight nod to Iruka-sensei. We went in front of the class, "Okay boys, no chakra, and Sasuke, go somewhat easy on him." Iruka-sensei said.
"I make no promises." he said getting in his stance. I knew I was gonna get my butt kicked, but I was gonna use my speed to make it tough for him.
"Begin!"
He sped towards me. 'Very fast, Taijutsu is amazing for someone his age. He's using alot of his strength is his punchs and kicks. If I use my speed, I can possibly tire him out thus making it easier for a beginner like me to beat him. Or get close to beating.' I thought to myself. He threw fast and brutal punches and kicks, and did my best at dodging and blocking. But if I used my arms to block, it left a terrible bruise.
But progressively his punches began to come slower and less brutal. That is when I attacked. I used a small bit of Water Fist, the taijutsu Hikari showed me, and did fluid punches. And I did Hikari's Modified Water Fist when you use Water Fist, and with knowledge of all the bodies pressure points, aiming for all of them, causing severe pain and possible fatality.
Yet, I wasn't all that good at it, but I knew where a few minor pressure points were. I caught the one on the side of his neck, and the one on his lower neck going towards his chest. He began to gag, I had him. He ran at me, and the unexpected happened. I sneezed and he punched me causing me to hit the ground roughly. "Sasuke wins the sparring match." Iruka-sensei said. I did my best getting up.
"Your weak. Your punches felt like feathers, and your speed was barely above average. Yet you didn't instantly lose against me. You are almost to fit to be my rival. Yet your still too weak. " He said, and walked away. "Sasuke you have to do the-"
"Not doing it!" he said. I gave him a weird look and looked up at Iruka-sensei.
"..."
"Er... Next spar! Kiba versus..."
Yeah, I made myself the object of desire to strange young girls, a possible rival, and a possible friend who seems to double as an idiot. Then again, I made someone happy. So I accomplished something, but then I just had to get better at taijutsu. Because Aki is strong, and he won't be beaten down easily.
Blame the light and fluffy parts on Serenade from Fruits Basket. And it was super hard to write a fight while listening to this cute song. Then at the end I listen to the Attack on Titan making the last part, in my opinoin, better than the rest. But I suck at fighting parts as you can see, so this can be good practice,eh? I'm trying to update everyday, and I'm doing okay right now, but the wondorful world of anime calls to me. Oh, Kuroko's Basketball, so entertaining!
