DISCLAIMER: I DON'T OWN NARUTO
Chapter 3: Training and results
STORY START
After Anko had left Iruka had quickly gone over everything he had inherited once more before he developed a plan of action about what order he should go about learning what he had been given but soon realised just how late it was getting and decide to figure out an order the next day. On his way home he saw people look at him oddly but he didn't care as he just couldn't seem to rid himself of the smile that had attached itself to his face. When he arrived back at the Orphanage he walked briskly to his room before he planted the trunk under his bed with great care and hopping into bed with that same smile still spread across his face.
It was safe to say that Iruka's constant nightmares would be replaced by dreams of his future tonight.
When Iruka woke up the sun was just beginning to rise but the young boy knew something was up and his worry only intensified when he realised with a scarce breath that his trunk was no longer laying under his bed. Iruka quickly jumped up as he raced down the stairs as he began to hear a bunch of boys grunting and the sound of metal clashing against wood. His eyes widened when he found the source of the grunts. It was just two of the older orphans going at it again he thought with a sweat drop and slightly rosy cheeks but this posed the new problem of where exactly his lost trunk was. The boy then quickly calmed himself as he remembered his father's words from when he was younger 'Son, if you ever lose something of importance you must keep a clear head and retrace your steps before you use your head to figure out just where it went and how it got there' and so the scar faced boy returned to the room he had woke up in only to stare dumbly at the door as he realised that he had woken up in a completely different room then he had gone to sleep in.
Deciding he could figure this out later he quickly ran to his room but when he tried to open the door he found it was locked so he quietly put his head to the door and listened in to what he thought where two voices before he realised with a start just who these two boys were. Their names were Kotetsu Hagane and Izumo Kamizuki and everyone knew that they were all but brothers in blood but what confused Iruka was what his two classmates were doing in his room so before long Iruka decided to take the matter into his own hands as he was worried that the two idiots were trying to get into his chest and so it was with a heavy breath and a small smirk that the boy put all his power into kicking the door down and it would have worked to had the door not been rotten. In the end there were two boys that were scared shitless while Iruka's leg was now stuck in the door as he cursed his forgetfulness. Iruka quickly made the whole bigger by punching a spot right next to it before he pulled his leg out and quickly put his arm through the hole and undid the lock but when he undid the lock he was shocked as he saw a scared Kotetsu and Izumo quickly and desperately trying to pull down what looked like photos as Kotetsu sighed with relief when he saw who it was although Izumo didn't seem to care before he noticed Kotetsu had stopped and instantly yelled at the other boy
"What the fuck do you think you're doing idiot, someone else could come soon" this seemed to have the desired effect as Kotetsu went straight back to taking the pictures down as Iruka just stood there with his jaw dropped to the floor as he took notice of just what the pictures were of before he finally got over his stupor and yelled
"Da fuck do you think you're doing assholes" in a tone that left no room for questioning but the two boys just kept working on getting all the pictures down which caused a tick mark to form on his head as he calmly walked up and grabbed hold of one of the photo before he placed the photo in between his hands in a gesture that over exaggerated a scene where would rip the picture to pieces and yelled at the two boys
"If you don't tell me why you're in MY room right now then I will rip this photo to pieces" with extra emphasise on the MY part of the sentence. This seemed to get the two boys attention as they gasped in horror as they couldn't believe a male would ever do such a thing before Izumo quickly answered Iruka by saying in a desperate tone
"Please don't Iruka, you don't know just how hard we had to work to get these" this caused Iruka to narrow his eyes in suspicion before he asked
"And what exactly did you get these for?" which caused the two boys to smirk as this time Kotetsu responded in what seemed to be an almost proud manor
"For cash of course" he said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. This caused Iruka to think about what he would do next and as he was thinking he looked at the picture and blushed when he saw it was Anko before he sweat dropped as he noticed it was her in her usual attire only to hit the floor as he realised that she was actually striking a pose while pulling a 'v' sign. As Iruka was getting up from his fall he realised what he was going to do as he slipped the picture into his pocket before he raised to his full height of 4 foot, 6 inches while bringing his right up to it and coughing into it nervously while the two boys in front of him just smirked knowingly as Iruka began to speak
"*cough*cough*… I uh… think we can safely say that this meeting between us never happened" only to receive nods from the two boys in recognition before Iruka quickly got his confidence back and yelled at the two boys
"Now get the fuck out of my room". The two boys then quickly ran out of Iruka's room although not without the massive grins that accompanied them. Sighing to himself Iruka then quickly went over and opened his curtains before he looked at the door in horror as he thought of what the old lady that ran this place would do to him when she found out about the hole in his door before he remembered that he now owned an apartment and all he needed to do was go to the Hokage in order to claim it. So with that in mind the brown haired boy quickly grabbed his trunk from under his bed and once again popping it on top of his shoulders began his walk to the Hokage tower.
After a short walk through the village in which the boy got a lot of questioning and confused stares he finally arrived at the Hokage tower and couldn't believe his luck when he found that the Hokage was free and that the boy could go right in and talk to him. So it was with a giant smile and a skip in his step he walked into the room where he would find the Hokage. How he did this with a trunk on his back was beyond anyone as they quickly went back to their day as they were kind of used to seeing these strange occurrence what with being ninja and all.
When Iruka entered the Hokage's office he was surprised to find the OLD Hokage flinging fireballs at the paperwork on his desk while yelling out that he would be doing the world a favour before water balls seemed to shoot out of the walls and stopping the hokage from burning the paper to a crisp. Just as the Hokage was about to throw another fireball he finally took notice to the fact that there was another person in his office other than him and his ANBU of course. The old man quickly turned serious as he sat down at his desk and calmly began doing some paperwork before he looked up and acted surprised when he saw Iruka standing there as everyone else in the room fall to the floor as they were astounded by the old man in front of them. Once the boy got back up again he was addressed by the Hokage as he asked what the boy was there for. The boy then responded by saying
"I came to get the key for the apartment I own as well as my how my father put it 'cash reward'" while he made a gesture with his fingers at 'cash reward' as he really didn't see it as such. The old man laughed silently to himself before he addressed the young man in front of him once more
"Yes your father always did have a sense of humour… anyway here is your key and paper work for your inherited 'cash reward', will there be anything else" as he said this he handed the boy his things. The boy took what he was given and quickly signed the paperwork to his 'cash reward' before he handed the paperwork back to the old man while putting the key in the opposite pocket from the picture to avoid any unwanted occurrences. The boy then thought about what the old man had said and thought of what he still needed to do in regards with his inheritance before with a nod of his head he replied
"You could reference me to a good tailor" which caused the Hokage to lean back in his chair and think before he came back smiling as he said
"Dog, would you mind dropping the boy off at Robins clothes store thank you". Before the boy could ask him who he was talking to he felt a hand on his shoulder and suddenly he was outside what looked to be a clothes store as he thought to himself 'I got to learn how he did that' before he wondered into the store in front of him as he went straight to the counter but before ringing the bell he quickly opened his trunk and got out the design that his mum had made before he sealed the trunk shut once again. When he was done with that he quickly rang the bell and waited patiently for the tailor to come… and waited… and waited before finally after about half an hour of waiting the tailor finally came out while introducing herself,
"Hey, I'm Robin Hatake, what can I do for ya". After about a minute of Iruka just standing there while staring at the tailor in front of him in annoyance he quietly placed the design on the table before asking how much and how long a wait it would be. His response was that after she took his measurements she would have it done in just under a month while saying it took a while to create a true masterpiece. The boy then quickly got his measurements taken before he exited the store and began to walk in the direction of his apartment as he still remembered where it was. When he got there he arrived to find everything much the same as it was before the Kyuubi attacked, the only difference being the dust that had now spread around the house so it was without a word that he placed his trunk next to the couch in the living room before he set about cleaning up the house.
Iruka had been cleaning his apartment for two hours when he heard his stomach growl and remembered that he hadn't had any breakfast this morning and decided that he would go and get some brunch… it was almost lunch anyways. He grabbed some canned food he found in the pantry and eats it quickly before he decided to revisit his trunk and devise what he would do next. When Iruka looked inside he realised just how much stuff he still needed to learn as he began to make a schedule for himself based on a schedule his parents had written down in the book his mother had left him.
When he finally worked out all the kinks he decided that his schedule would be:
7 – 8am. Warm up with laps around the village plus push-ups, pull-ups, punches and kicks which would all differ as he went along but would start at 5 laps, 50 push-ups, 50 pull-ups, 100 punches and 100 kicks.
8 – 9am. Chakra control exercises based on what is in the book (start with tree climbing)
10 – 11am. Practice with 'Nibui kiba' in the style of 'Shibō bōkō' (find Guy and ask for help after have established the basics)
1 – 2pm. Summoning training
2 – 3pm. Ninjutsu training (Practice lower ranking jutsu from book until mastered. Note: work on no more than three jutsu at a time)
3 – 4pm. Taijutsu training (Find a Taijutsu that works well with my other abilities such as the style of 'Shibō bōkō'. Note: find someone else to find another's opinion on what you decide)
4 – 5pm. Meditation (study in awareness and become calmer)
7 – 9pm. Study what is in the book (would be preferable to know the basics of everything you can)
Iruka grinned as he looked at what would be his training in the weekends after all he still had to turn up to classes in order to pass the written test. For the Weekdays when he was at school he would do his warm up before he went to school and then he would train for two hours afterward doing whatever needed the most work before he would spend half an hour on studying for the written exam.
Iruka looked up and realised that most of the day had gone by but he figured that he would begin looking at the book his mum and dad made for him and see if there was anything that really jumped at him as a necessity. That night Iruka found a taijutsu style that he would begin learning the basic of the next day as it was the last day of the weekend, the style was called Sagi-shi or faker which is a taijutsu style that relies on the enemy's underestimation as the user waits for the opportune moment to strike. One of the reasons Iruka choose this style was because of its defensive nature as it went well with his prominently offensive weapon style.
As the boy got into bed and got ready to go to sleep he thought 'And so it begins'.
