Chapter 7: Pass or Fail

Zolo rubbed his eyes wearily as his alarm clock went off and yawned. He slowly got out of bed and stretched before putting his clothes on and combing his hair. He put a brown band around his mid body and slid his sword into the back of it.
His room was a medium size and had blue coloured wallpaper and a grey carpet. The ceiling was white. The wall had two posters on it. The one on the left was actually a photo of him and his family. His mother and father were above with Ryunosuke to his father's left and Luna in between Sakura and Sasuke and Zolo in between Sasuke and Ryunosuke. Train was in the middle. The other was a poster of silhouettes of 'The 5 Swordsmen of Konoha'.
Other things in his room were: a wardrobe, his bed, a cabinet with a lamp, a wash basket, a book case full of books, a TV and a desk with writing equipment.
He walked down the stairs and saw his little brother sitting at the table eating breakfast and his siter next to him reading a book and drinking some milk. He then saw his father at the centre of the table eating some tomatoes. Sakura was pulling something out of the fridge.
"Zolo" she exclaimed as she saw him come in "here's some cereal.".
"Thanks mum" Zolo replied with a light smile. He went and took the chair facing Train.
His mother came and sat down with her own breakfast and the five ate their breakfast. As they finished Zolo looked at the clock and saw he was going to be late to the grounds to meet his new sensei and he jumped up from the table waved to his parents and ran off at ninja speed.
As he ran through the streets and shops he saw many people who gave him a small glance before carrying on their days. He'd always felt the village showed a lack of respect to his family and didn't know why. The only people who didn't were his father and mother's friend such as Uncle Naruto the hokage.
As he reached the grounds he saw Yuri sitting on a block of wood doing her nails and Ru playing with his cat, Shouga. Shouga was actually family to him in a way. The Uchiha clan owned Shouga's sister who looked just like her brother but more feminine. Her name was Arata.
As he approached the other two he and the others felt a gust of wind that didn't feel like other gusts of wind. And they were right. From the wind, in front of them a man was appearing. His long brown and black tipped hair flew in the wind, his navy in a deep stare, his mouth in a frown, his jacket flowing behind him and his two swords planted on his back, raikou ken on the right shoulder and seishou ken on the left. At seeing them his from turned upside down.
"Hey guys, I thought you guys would be late" the man said.
"Who're you?" Yuri demanded "and what do you want with us?" she then added.
"He's our new sensei" Zolo said "I saw him talking with my brother and I asked who he was" he added seeing them give him a 'How did you know that?' face.
"Then he must be a bad guy" Yuri said drawing her kunai.
"No, I'm of the '5 Swordsmen of Konoha', my name is Mamu Nakuta. Ryunosuke just happens o be my best friend" the man said.
"So? You could be a traitor! I don't trust you!" Yuri exclaimed.
"Go play in your flower shop Yamanaka girl" Mamu said coldly.
Yuri stared at him tears welling up. Ru ran to her, putting an arm around her.
"You know you didn't have to be rude to her! She was just being careful!" Zolo shouted.
"Hn" Mamu said brushing his jacket with a smirk "like I give a damn."
"You know being a sensei involves being kind to your subordinates and not being rude. You need to for a bond in order to complete your missions well" he heard a familiar voice say behind him.
"Yes sensei" he said boredly.
"Dad!" Zolo exclaimed "What're you doing here?"
"Hokage asked me to see how Mamu does as a sensei. Not to good currently" Sasuke said giving a small wave.
"Hmm...I'm sorry miss Yamanaka" Mamu muttered warily.
"Her names Yuri" Zolo said.
"Okay" Mamu said wearily "now come get some bells" holding up the bells once again.
"Ru saw them and remembered the team speech from last time about teamwork and he and Zolo jumped Yuri going down the centre. She made some handsigns and whispered some words before the ground started to shake and a giant plant jumped up wrapping itself around Mamu. Mamu showed no emotion just standing seeing what they'd do next. He then felt a sudden pain as claws scratched down the middle of the plant and his chest, he clutched his stomach in pain then looked up and widened his eyes.
"Take this Mamu-sensei!" Zolo cried from above holding his left hand with his right, the chidori sparking.
"He he, you still don't have the bells though" Mamu said with a smirk.
"Oh don't we?" Zolo asked smartly.
Mamu felt a bell ring and something unattached from his belt and looked down and saw Shouga with the two bells in his mouth. He widened his eyes as Ru came in and took them out of Shouga's mouth and rubbing the cats head making the cat give a light pur. Mamu looked up again to see Zolo centimetres away. He looked into the ball of sparks that had gone from a medium sized ball to a ping pong ball in his had slowly disappearing as he got closer. It disappeated and Zolo fell on to his new sensei in exhaustion knocked out. Mamu smiled.
'We'll have to work on that Ryunosuke's brother' Mamu thought "well done, you guys passed. We'l be carrying on as a unit together" he said to his new team as they gave big grins, hugging eacother, Zolo still in his arms.
He felt a pull on his shoulder as Zolo was slid of him by Sasuke, taking his son and putting him on his back to take him home.
"Well done you two" Sasuke said as he walked away.
"Oi, Kuro's son, give me back my bells!" Mamu said with a smile.
Ru walked over and put them in his hand but did not let go of them "It's Ru" he said with a light smile before releasing it and walking back to Yuri to celebrate.

The next day:

Zolo walked into the room he used to be in when he was in the academy where he saw Mamu and another man and a Yuri and Naifou, son of Neji and Tenten. He walked in and saw a seat next to his best friend, Naifou Hyuga. He saw on the other side of Naifou, Yuri who saw him and winked. He shivered and turned back to the front.
The other man looked to be in his late twenties, maybe twenty-six or seven. He had blue spiky hair and emerald eyes. He was wearing a silver top with the green jonin vest on and black trousers.
"Naifou, who's that?" Zolo asked.
"That's my new sensei, Aoi Hirameki" Naifou replied "who's that guy with the swords?"
"Who? You mean my new sensei, Mamu Nakuta. He was the teammate of Ryunosuke and my old sensei, Bara Hinote, she got killed by Ryu" Zolo replied.
"Cool" Naifou replied "I bet my sensei's stronger though."
"What? No way! Mamu's awesome! He's one of those sworsmen" Zolo said.
Two people walked in, one was Ru, the other was Mamu's younger brother, Jeremii. He saw Jeremii go ver and hit Mamu which suprised him. e saw Mamu turn to Jeremii and hug him. He then remembered Jeremii's surname. Nakuta. They must be related.
As Jeremii came over and sat in front of him he asked "How are you relate to Mamu-sensei?"
"I'm his younger brother" Jeremii replied "your in his team?"
"Yep, with Ru and Yuri"
"Cool"
They were still waiting for one more. Kitsune Uzumaki.
"So Jeremii, Naifou, are you guys in the sam team with Kitsune-chan?" Zolo asked.
"Yep" Naifou replied.
"Cool" Mamu replied.
Kitsune came in breathing heavily.
"Sorry, I over slept" she said rubbing the back of her head.
"Just cause your the hokage's daughter does not excuse lateness" Aoi said.
"Sorry sensei" she replied.
"Okay, guys, lets go on our missions" Aoi replied and Aoi, Naifu, Kitsune and Jeremii left leaving Mamu and his team.
"Okay guys lets go too" he replied warily getting up and leaving the room. Yuri and Ru raced after him. Zolo smirked and ran after too.
It had begun.
