Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto and it's lest likely I ever will. I can't own Naruto, but can write a fan fiction about it right? The plotline was mine though.

An Author Note: As Kanane ages a bit in the story, the rating may go higher.

A Note from the Author's Crazy-Sugar-High-Self that we will refer to as her inner-self from now on: HELLO PEOPLE! LIKE THE DISCLAIMER SAYS, I DON'T OWN NARUTO, BUT SOMEDAY I'LL OWN GAARA! GAARA-KUN, I'LL SOMEDAY OWN YOU!!

Somewhere in Suna, in Gaara's office, (He's now Kazekage!) our young Kazekage twitches, "My Gaara senses are tingling, they're telling me that someone wants to own me." Gaara shivers. Gaara's thoughts: Fan girls are so scary…XD

Sasuke: I agree. (Thumbs up. dOb)

Sasuke fan girls: Sasuke-kun! (Chases after Sasuke)

Sasuke (runs off): I hate my life! XD

Itachi (who appeared out of nowhere): Foolish little brother, you have so many fan girls, but you're still gay for joining Orochimaru. (All the fan girls heard this and attacked Itachi, but he disappeared because that's how he is.)

Chapter 4


Kanane was walking along a path to get to Ninja Academy that morning. A week ago, she had just become seven years old. To her, becoming seven was a big deal for her because now, she could attend Ninja Academy to become a ninja. Sasuke was walking in a slow pace behind Kanane.

"Niisan," Kanane said in an impatient voice,"hurry up! School can start any minute now!"

Sasuke kept going at the same pace said, "Don't hurry so much, the school isn't going anywhere." He stared at the sky and thought that they would have about fifteen or twenty minutes at least until school started. A few more minutes later, as they walked some more, the academy could be seen ahead.

"There it is!" Kanane shouted excitedly and ran down hill. Sasuke had to run after her to keep up. Kanane was looking at her surroundings. The girl was busy walking around, not bothering to look where she was going, she bumped into the teacher. (Guess who the teacher is.)

"Oh, this is so troublesome. Some kids just don't bother to watch where they're going." Her soon-to-be sensei mumbled.

"Sorry sir," Kanane said. Shikamaru just stared at the girl and gave a look to Sasuke that looked like it said, is this another relative of yours? Sasuke just gave him his usually glare that he would give to everyone else who had asked this question for the past few weeks.

Shikamaru shook this off and said, "The ceremony is going to start."


At the ceremony, Kanane was excited. All the parents and relatives were there for their kids. After the fifth hokage finished her speech, Kanane searched the crowd for Sasuke. She spotted him and ran to him. Sasuke told her to get to class and pointed to the crowd of children rushing through the door. Kanane ran with the other children and disappeared. Sasuke smiled and left the academy.

In the academy, Kanane saw a lot of kids around her. The teacher, Shikamaru, was calling roll. The kids and Kanane thought that it was rather funny that their sensei would once in a while, mumble that something was troublesome.

"Alright, it's roll call time," Shikamaru announced, "Sigh, this is so troublesome," he mumbled and several people in the class laughed at this.

"Settle down," their sensei told them started to take roll call. "Ikari Ryoko,"

"Here!" A brunette girl was waving her hand up in the air.

"Kino Hanzo"

"Here!" Hanzo was a boy with green hair and green eyes. "Matsumoto Mirei" was a girl with short, red hair and lavender eyes. "Hino Hana" was a shy girl, unlike the others, when she was called, she quietly raised her hand. She had short, blue hair and silver eyes. "Hyuga Kaji" was a boy with slightly spiky, dark brown hair. Like most of the people from the Hyuga clan, he had white pupiless eyes. "Sagi Shugo" was a blond boy with green eyes and "Kozuka Rena" was a girl with orange hair and red eyes. "Tomoe Shiro", a boy with black hair and dark eyes. "Maple Haruka" was a blond girl with brown eyes. "Hirukawa Shinji" and "Miyamoto Ryu" was called next. Shinji was a boy with dark purple with dark eyes. Ryo had brown hair and dark eyes. Kanane was finally called.

"Uchiha Kanane" Shikamaru called out.

"She's an Uchiha?" Some students whispered,"I thought there was only two Uchiha survivors left!" Kanane tried to ignore the whispering and slowly raised her hand. Shikamaru went on with another list of names and Kanane remained quiet for the whole time. She wondered what did they meant that there were only two survivors left in the Uchiha clan. The rest of the class was pretty normal. They learned normal things like math, reading, science, history, and even a bit of music. They were told by their sensei that they would have their first lesson to become a ninja after recess.


At recess, Kanane walked around looking at all the people around her playing. A girl her same age came up to her; it was Mirei, "Hey, do you want to join us?" and gestured to a group of girls who were playing hopscotch. Kanane nodded and Mirei said, "You're Kanane right?"

"Yes." During that recess, Kanane had a great time playing and found out that the other girls were her age too. Even though it has been only a few hours, Kanane felt that Mirei was going to be her best friend. For a while, she forgot about the whole thing about the Uchiha clan.

"What do you think of school so far?" Mirei asked Kanane while they were taking a break from playing.

"It's great, what do you after school?"

"I help my parents or I would sometimes go to a friend's house." She replied.

"Are you excited about the next lesson?" Kanane asked.

"Oh yes, but I like music lessons best. I'm taking music lessons for the flute!" The redhead said excitedly.


"All right class, today, we are going to start a little bit of our ninja training." Shikamaru announced after recess was over. "We will learn how to control chakra, learn a couple of basic jutsus, and plenty of other stuff that I feel that is too troublesome to list." By now, the pupils were used to this and waited for more.

Their sensei continued, "Could someone here explain to me was chakra is." Someone's hand was waving to catch his attention. "Go ahead." Shikamaru said lazily.

"Chakra is the mix of energy present in all cells of the body and spiritual energy you get from exercise and experience by a variety of methods." The person who answered this was Rena.

"That's right, now like she said there, we are going to go several exercises to shape your chakra." For the next hour, the whole class was doing a bunch of 'basic' exercises. By the time they were done with all of their exercises, many students complained, all were tired. Kanane refused to complain and was determined not to. After their first lesson on chakra, the class learned much more than chakra. They learned how to use weapons by first learning to aim before their sensei would let anyone fiddle around with a kunai knife. Much to everybody's disappointment, they wouldn't get to learn any jutsus until they learn how to use chakra. Mirei and another girl named Haruka got control of their chakra. Kanane almost got it, but not quite.


There was now one more lesson to do and it was flower arrangement class. Every girl had to take one year of flower arrangement class to become a kunoichi.

(A/n: A kunoichi is a girl ninja.)

Kanane was gathering a small bunch of flowers when someone stepped up to her. "So you're one of the last survivors of the Uchiha clan, huh." A girl with purple shoulder-length hair said. A small group of girls behind her smirked as this comment. Kanane pretended not to hear this and continued to make it look like the ground was interesting. "But I guess you're probably going to take it after your family and kill them off." The girl continued. Kanane clutched her fist tightly and remained looking down. Mirei attacked the girl and bit her arm when the teacher saw this and stopped the two of them.

"But Lavender was talking bad of her family!" Mirei protested while the teacher was giving her a time out.

(A/n: The girl's name is Lavender. No, there will be no gay or lesbian pairings in this story. This is what you yaoi fan girls need to know. If you just love that kind of pairing so much and would like to give me a flame just for that, go find another fan fiction please. Thank you for your cooperation here.)


Kanane felt guilty for getting Mirei in trouble and apologized to her after school.

"Don't go sorry! That girl Lavender and her little groupie of b--ches (I can't fully swear here since I made this story K+.) were giving you a bad name there! My parents would probably get mad at me for my punishment, but your situation is worse." And Mirei left after saying this and walked home. Kanane left too and went home.

Flashback:

"She's an Uchiha?" Some students whispered," I thought there were only two Uchiha survivors left!"

End of Flashback

Kanane stared at the ground and thought, what do they mean that there are only two Uchiha survivors left? She opened the door of her house and threw her bag in the hallway. Sasuke's going to be home any minute now, Kanane thought, and fell asleep on the bed in her bedroom.
