(Music: Organization Xlll)
A full moon was shining down from the night sky over a castle in complete ruin where fires have broken out in various places all over the ruins and then a moment later, the moon turned blood red as well as the sky and the ground started shaking. The source of the shaking was revealed to be a giant monster in the shape of a humanoid snake with pieces of the ruined castle adorning its body as it stomped onto the battlefield.
"WRRRRRRRRRRYYYYYYRRRRRRR!" The monster roared with a horrible cry as a girl with black hair tied up in a white bow with two short swords in her hands wearing a red scarf, stood ready to confront the monster.
"It's up to me now. I have to stop this thing!" The girl said with determination as she held her swords ready to fight. But before she could go to fight the monster the shadow of a boy walked towards the snake like monster with a key shaped weapon in his hand as the monster's skin turned jet black with a strange heart emblem appearing on its chest.
"Wait, no...don't go.." The girl begged for a reason she did not know,as the monster started changing up blue energy in its mouth and the boy held his weapon ready.
"Please, don't!" The girl begged again as the monster fired a laser from its mouth at the boy as he thrust his weapon forward at the laser as they come in contact with one other forcing the laser to split away from him and causing a bright light to slowly overtake the girl's vision.
"No!" The girl yelled as she leaped out of her bed reaching out and then realized that her vision was only a dream and she retraced her hand as she claimed down.
"What a weird dream. Who was I worried about?" The girl asked herself and she looked out her window at the starry night sky.
"I guess I'll worry about it later."
(Mysterious tower: Outside)
(Music: Kh 2.5 Magical mystery)
"Gawrsh,was that really her?" Goofy asked his pal Donald as they watched the doors close in front of them after their friends passed though.
"Of course it was! You have eyes, don't you?" Donald said angrily and then calmed down. "*Sigh* Let's just hope she'll be gone before Sora comes back."
"Who'll be gone before I come back?" A familiar voice said from behind the magician and captain that surprised them as they turned that their friend and savior of the worlds, Sora had returned from the realm of sleep.
"SORA!" Donald and Goofy said at the same time as they tackled Sora to the ground in a group hug.
"Hey, hey, hey! Take it down a notch, would ya?" Sora asked even though he was glad to see his friends too as Donald and Goofy let go of him.
"Sorry, we just worried about you." Goofy apologized.
"You could've gotten kidnapped again! Why did you go back?" Donald asked angrily.
"I had to, I wanted to check up on some friends I met there." Sora answered.
"Well how were they doing?" Goofy asked.
"Some of them are doing fine, but some of them are gone, they probably went back to their own world." Sora said thinking about the dream eaters as well as Neku and the other reaper's games participants who had seemingly disappeared from traverse town. "So anyway, what were you guys talking about?"
'Well, uhh ..." Goofy said as he trailed off trying to remember what he and Donald were talking about.
"Maybe you should see for yourself when you talk to master Yen Sid." Donald advised.
"Oh right! I forgot,I need to talk to him about something important." Sora said.
"Of course you did."
"Well, let's go then. I'm pretty sure master Yen Sid is waiting for you anyhow." Goofy said.
"Yeah, let's go." Sora said as they walked into the tower.
(Sorcerer's loft)
"The keyblade wars of yore plunged the true kingdom hearts into darkness, and the X-blade shattered." The wise retired keyblade master Yen Sid told the tale of the keyblade war to his former student king Mickey who deep in thought of the story. "But the light still shining in the hearts of children rebuilt the world that we know today. And the light from the broken X-blade was then divided into seven, to protect the number of pure hearts in the world."
"Seven pure lights. They're...the princesses of heart." Mickey said with realization.
"Indeed. Those seven pure hearts form the very source of all light in the world. If they are lost, the world will again give way to shadow. Thus, even if we deliberately avoid finding our seven lights to avert another keyblade war, Xehanort will still target the seven princesses in order to forge the X-blade." Yen Sid explained with bitterness that there seemed to be no way to avoid the battle with Xehanort's true organization.
"So...there's gonna be a clash between seven lights and thirteen darknesses...and there's nothing we can do to avoid triggering the keyblade war?" Mickey asked as his master took a moment to reply.
"To protect the seven pure hearts, we will need seven lights strong enough to stand against the thirteen darknesses." Yen Sid explained the only possible way to save the princesses of hearts and stop Xehanort for good.
"So we're missing one guardian of light." Mickey said as he looked at the floor trying to think of a solution, if they don't find the final guardian soon, Xehanort will go after the seven pure lights to forge the X-blade. As he was thinking of a way to solve the problem, the door to the chamber opened behind him to reveal Sora's childhood best friend Riku at the door.
"Riku! You're back!" Mickey said happily to see the newly named keyblade master.
"That's right. Master Yen Sid, I brought you the "Guest" you asked for but...you never said why." Riku said as he stood aside to reveal the person Yen Sid had requested him to bring.
"Huh? Wow!" Mickey said surprised at who had arrived.
"I have come to learn that you, too, can wield a keyblade. I am glad you are here." Yen Sid thanked as the guest Riku had brought with him, turned out to be Sora's other childhood friend and actually one of the princesses of heart, Kairi.
"I couldn't say no master. Especially after what I heard about what happened to Sora." Kairi said as she stepped into the loft.
"She figured out something was wrong as soon I asked her to come and wouldn't stop asking about it. And was gonna get physical." Riku said with a small shiver of fear.
"Where is Sora anyway?" Kairi asked.
"He said he had something to take care of back in the realm of sleep." Mickey answered.
"What! You let him go back?!" Kairi shouted.
"He should be back anytime now." Mickey said with hope.
"You know Sora can take care of himself Kairi, besides he wouldn't fall for the same trap twice." Riku assured her.
"You sure?" Kairi asked as Riku just stood in silence actually unsure. Then a quick moment later the door to the chamber opened up to reveal Sora, Donald and Goofy.
"And then I said that his name is a mouthful- '' Sora told his tales of the mark of mastery but abruptly stopped when he spotted Kairi.
"Kairi?"
"Sora!" Kairi said as she rushed over to Sora to give him a tight hug. "I heard about what happened to you, and I was so worried.
"But, why are you here?" Sora asked.
"Well, you should ask master Yen Sid and Riku that." Kairi replied.
"You know we're looking for one last person who can be one of the seven to organization Xlll, right?" Riku asked.
"Yeah, I do. Does that mean…" Sora tried to guess.
"Yes, because of her ability to wield a keyblade, we will be training Kairi to be a guardian of light." Yen Sid answered.
"What! But are you guys sure? Isn't Kairi one of the pure hearts of light?" Sora asked.
"Yeah, but either way, Xehanort will go after her to forge the X-blade, since we have no idea where the three missing keyblade wielders are, we had no choice." Riku explained.
I still like it though. Kairi just got the keyblade and organization Xlll is a lot different from the heartless." Sora said with worry.
"Sora. I'll be fine. I said yes because of what happened to you, you need as much help as you can Sora. Nothing is going to change my mind." Kairi said with a smile.
"She's right Sora, we're all in this together!" Mickey agreed.
"Alright, I guess there's no arguing with you Kairi. Not this time." Sora said giving in.
"Hey! What about the important thing you need to talk to master Yen Sid about?" Donald reminded Sora.
"Oops! Sorry I forgot." Sora said rubbing the back of his head.
"Yes, I imagine that you have to report to me about something you have learned in your visit to the realm of sleep." Yen Sid said.
"Yeah, it's really important. I was doing a little training in the realm of sleep to get ready for the new journey, but I noticed something was off. I couldn't use any of the powers I've learned there." Sora explained his situation.
"Not even the power we've learned from Joshua and the other's?" Riku asked about Sora's ability to use flowmotion and he shook his head no.
"What of the magical clothing the three good fairies have given you on your last journey?" Yen Sid asked.
"Nope, not even those are working. I think something happened when I fell asleep during the test." Sora guessed.
"Yes, I believe you are correct Sora. Somehow nearly becoming Xehanort's vessel has drained you of most of your powers and also the one power you needed to learn the most. The power of waking." Yen Sid explained.
"So what should I do? Train until I get my powers back?" Sora suggested as Yen Sid shook his head.
"No, I believe it wouldn't be enough, at least normal training wouldn't." Yen Sid said.
"What do you mean?
"Throughout your various journeys, your strategy of gaining strength was with your friends and allies in different worlds. Therefore, you should go on a small journey of your own and train in new worlds to reacquire your powers until you are ready to learn the power of waking again." Yen Sid explained.
"New worlds? You really think it's a good idea to go now?" Sora asked.
"Perhaps it's the best choice Sora. We have missing keyblade wielders to locate, new wielders to train, and you must reacquire your power in order to stand a chance in the coming battle." Yen Sid said.
"Well then, let's go!" Goofy spoke up.
"Yeah! Let's get going!" Donald agreed in excitement.
"No, Sora must journey alone." Yen Sid said which took everyone in the room by surprise.
"Master Yen Sid, are you sure about that? After what happened?" Mickey asked.
"It's the only way. Sora must focus on regaining his power while everyone else do their part for the coming battle." Yen Sid said.
"But what about organization Xlll? They could try and make Sora their last member again." Riku said.
"I have thought about that." Yen sid answered as he waved his hand a object appeared of cloud of smoke and into Sora's hand.
"What's this?" Sora asked as he looked over the object in his hands to seem to be some sort of blue rock in the shape of a star with a corner broken off.
"The star shard!" Mickey said recognizing the object.
"You know what this is?"
"Yup! You can get across different worlds with that thing pretty quickly. But it's really hard to control when it goes off." Mickey explained.
"I have managed to solve that little problem by casting a spell on it so it won't act on it's own. If you find yourself in trouble Sora, the shard will activate, and you will be returned right here." Yen Sid explained as Sora looked over the shard.
"Thanks, but…" Sora said as he set the shard on Yen Sid's table. "I don't need it."
"Sora, are you sure?" Goofy asked.
"Yeah, what if you're in really big trouble?" Donald asked.
"If organization Xlll does come for me again, then I'm not going to run away if puts someone in one of the worlds I'm going to in danger. I would want to fight with them." Sora said which gave his friends a small amount of inspiration.
"So in other words, if you screw up again, you're expecting me to bail again." Riku joked.
"Hey! I'm not gonna mess up again! I don't fall for the same trick twice." Sora said as Riku and Kairi looked at each other.
"Hahahahahahaha!" Riku and Kairi chuckled at the same time.
"Hey! What's so funny?" Sora asked as Riku and Kairi calmed down.
"Nothing. I think we just know you a bit too well." Riku said.
"It's true. We know everything about you by now." Kairi agreed.
"I see you've made your decision Sora. Quite an admirable choice, however I cannot let you leave here empty handed." Yen Sid said as he waved his hand again and another object landed in Sora's hand.
"Hey, is this?" Sora questioned when he noticed that object seemed to be a token in the shape of a plain white star with a chain attached to it.
"Yes, it is a new keychain for your keyblade, Sora." Yen Sid answered.
"Why is it colorless?" Sora asked.
"Because it is not quite ready for use just yet. I made it specially for you with magic that will take a shape fitting your heart. When the time comes, it will come to life and you will be able to use its hidden powers." Yen Sid explained.
"Wow, thanks!" Sora said.
"Yes. I believe it is time you start a new journey and build your powers. Everyone else will do their parts, and you can return when you make a breakthrough." Yen Sid said.
"Right, Kairi will train here for now while the rest of us find clues on Terra, Aqua and Ventus." Mickey said which made Sora's heart feel heavy for some reason when he heard Terra and Aqua's names.
"Alright, off I go!" Sora said as he turned towards the door.
"Good luck Sora!" Goofy waved.
"Don't get kidnapped again!" Donald advised.
"I have to agree." Riku said.
"Be safe Sora." Kairi said as Sora walked out the door and Yen Sid continued to watch from his chair with a smile.
"May your heart be your guiding key." Yen Sid whispered to himself.
(Meanwhile in another world)
In a modern japanese suburb, the early morning sun was shining bright on the neighborhood as the black haired girl with the red scarf walked out of her dorm building wearing a white and blue school uniform and a bag in her hand.
"It's such a beautiful day out." The girl said as she held her hand over her face to block the bright sun.
"For some reason, I'm really looking forward to today. Look out world, here comes Asuka! The granddaughter of the legendary shinobi!" The girl named Asuka said as she began to jog down the street. But unknown to her, a shadow under a tree she passed started moving and a pair of yellow eyes started to form.
(Outside)
Outside of the wizard's tower, Sora walked near the edge of the piece of land the tower sits as he thought about where to go.
"Alright, a new world huh? So where to go." Sora said to himself as he felt a tap on his shoulder and turned around to see Kairi.
"Oh hey Kairi. What's up?" Sora asked.
(Music: Kairi's theme)
"Nothing really, I just wanted to ask if you still have the lucky charm I gave you." Kairi asked.
"Of course I do." Sora said as he reached into his pocket and pulled out the star shaped charm that Kairi gave him. "Kept it on me during the whole test."
"Well, I'm glad you did. Maybe that charm is what kept you safe." Kairi suggested.
"Kairi, I'm not gonna lie, I'm really worried about you deciding to fight against organization Xlll with us." Sora admitted.
"Not worry about it Sora. I have faith that whatever happens, we'll find a way to overcome the worst. So go already. It's not like we'll really be apart." Kairi encouraged.
"Yeah, like you said. Wherever I go, you'll always be with me." Sora said as he turned around as he held his hand of front of him and summoned his keyblade, the kingdom key to his hand and pointed towards the sky as a beam of light shined of the tip of the keyblade and formed a keyhole in the air causing the sky to crack open as the light of the keyhole enveloped Sora to take him to a new world.
Kingdom hearts 2.9 episode 1:Path of the shinobi
(East station shops)
After opening up the portal and passing through it, Sora found himself in a concrete back alley and walked out of it to see he was in a modern day shopping district adorned by neon lights on each side of the streets.
"Wow! This place is amazing,wish the others were able to come along with me to see this place." Sora said with excitement as he walked about the district to admire the sights, but then stopped to remember his mission.
"Wait, I shouldn't goof off. I have to train and get my powers back, but how am I gonna do that? I doubt this place has its own Phil." Sora said to himself as he tried to think of a solution to his problem. Then after a moment of thinking, he heard a familiar clanking sound and looked to see several soldier heartless running down an alley which no civilians in the area seemed to notice, much to Sora's relief.
(Music: DDD Hand to hand)
Well what do you know? Those guys always have perfect timing!" Sora said as he ran down the alley to chase the heartless. After passing through a shopping plaza, Sora found the heartless on a back street alley surrounding a girl wearing a blue and white uniform and a red scarf with her hair tied up in a white bow and if Sora even noticed,she had quite the large chest, and she was currently backed up against a wall cornered.
"I"m warning you creeps! You better back off if you know what's good for you!" The girl warned the heartless which they ignored by inching closer and when some nightwalker heartless appeared to join in on the ambush.
"Okay, fine then! Just don't cry when I kick your butts!" The girl said as she reached behind her back to grab a scroll.
Hey!" Sora's voice caught the heartless and the girl's attention as they turned to him."I leave for a little while and you guys are ganging up on just one girl? How low can you go?"
"What are you doing?! Get out of here!" The girl pleaded.
I can handle this, don't worry!" Sora said as he held his hand out to summon his keyblade and got into his battle stance as the heartless rushed over to him while completely forgetting about the girl they cornered.
"Hey, wait a moment! What's going on?" The girl asked and then noticed the keyblade in Sora's hand. "Wait, is what I saw in my dream? Is that boy..."
"I know I've been fighting dream eaters lately. But I'll always have you guys at the front of the line." Sora taunted as the some of the soldiers took the first attack at Sora with some claw swipes that he easily dodged and countered with some simple swings knocked a couple away with a heavy downward swing.
"I knew I was a little rusty." Sora said as he noticed the swings of his keyblade was slower and weaker then before the end of the mark of mastery, and then his train of thought was broken when the nightwalkers came flying down in a spinning downward charge and knocked him back which made the girl watching winch in worry. But then her worry was replaced by bewilderment when she saw Sora recover with barely a scratch.
"Hey! Cheap shot!" Sora said in annoyment as he jumped into the air knocked the nightwalker that hit him with a few combo swings and then finished it off with a spinning backflip slash.
"I can't believe he got up after a hit like that, this guy is something." The girl commented as she watched Sora guard a swipe attack from the soldier heartless and knocked them away with a counter slash which destroyed a few more heartless.
"Alright. Let's try something else." Sora said to himself as he pointed the keyblade in front of him at a nightwalker.
"Fire!" Sora called out as a small fireball shot out from the keyblade and crashed into the nightwalker and destroyed it.
"Could've done better." Sora said quietly as he managed to dodge a claw swipe from the last soldier and countered with a sweeping slash and then attacked the last nightwalker with a leaping attack and then took a moment to look around to see if there was any heartless left and it would seem he defeated them all.
"He's good, but I think he needs a little practice." The girl commented on Sora's clunky fighting style.
"Phew." Sora sighed as he dismissed his keyblade.
(Music: Traverse in trance)
"I definitely got weaker. I need to get my strength back." Sora said as he noticed the girl he had saved was walking over to him. "You okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. But I could've handled those monsters on my own." The girl claimed.
"Really? But those monsters probably aren't you used to anyway, so I had to jump in." Sora said.
"Well thank you anyway."
"Okay, see you around." Sora said as he turned to leave.
"Whoa, wait!" The girl stopped Sora before he could go anywhere. "Could I at least know who you are?"
"Oh, I'm Sora." He introduced himself.
"I'm Asuka. A shinobi ninja in training." Asuka introduced herself as well.
"A ninja,really? You don't look like one, but that sounds really cool." Sora said.
(Well he seems nice enough. He doesn't seem like an evil ninja otherwise he wouldn't have saved me. Plus he's kinda cute.) Asuka thought to herself. "Anyway, as my duty as a good ninja, I need to know your business here before I can let you go."
"Well I'm not up to anything bad, I'm just looking for a place to train. And I guess I gotta get rid of the monsters that attacked you." Sora answered.
"A place to train? Well…" Asuka trailed off for a moment to put her thinking face on and then got an idea. "I know! I can take you to the secret training facility me and my friends train at. It could be the place you're looking for."
"Really? Thanks for the offer. But if it's a secret, why are you taking me there?" Sora asked.
"Because you helped me out and I want to repay you. Plus, you're a ninja too, so what's the harm? Come on!" Asuka said as she jogged off down the street.
"Well that makes sense I guess...wait, ninja? Wait, Asuka I'm not.." Sora tried to clear up the misunderstanding, but was too late as Asuka was too far down the street to hear him.
"Guess I'll clear it up later. Hey! Wait up!" Sora called out to Asuka as he ran off after her to the secret facility she was taking him to.
(World logo: Shinobi country)
(Hanzo academy: Old school building)
After spending a few minutes chasing after Asuka, who was much faster than Sora had thought she was, they came across a large pristine prep school with many students at the front gates which he thought would be where they be going in until Asuka went passed it and went around to the back gate where an older stone building sat quietly.
"This is where your hideout is?" Sora as they stopped in front of the building. "It's kinda old."
"Well of course. Hanzo academy is over a hundred years old, and no one would think to look in the old school building that's been put off limits." Asuka explained as she walked into the building with Sora following behind her. After passing by old lockers and though old hallways, Asuka led Sora to a wall that seemed to be slightly newer than the rest of the building.
"Right here." Asuka said as she put her back up against the wall.
"Here? Like this?" Sora asked as he stepped up next to Asuka with his own back against the wall.
"So..now what do we do-WHOA!" Sora yelped as the wall suddenly flipped around and tossed him to the ground to the room hidden behind it.
"Ow…" Sora groaned as he got up and rubbed the back of his head.
"Wow, even on my first day here that didn't happen to me. You're a bit clumsy." Asuka said.
"Yeah about that, I…oh!" Sora said as he noticed the room he landed in. The style of the room was japanese with a sushi bar in the corner and the center of the floor was lower than the rest of the room where a tv and table were sitting and there were moving gears near the ceiling. "Is this supposed to be a classroom?"
"Kinda, this is the ninja room where me and my friends learn about being shinobi." Asuka explained.
"So, where is everyone?" Sora asked.
"Well, they've properly gone ahead and started training already since I was late because of those monsters." Asuka guessed. "Give a moment to get into my training uniform and we'll meet the others."
"Alright. I can wait a moment." Sora said as he took a quick look around the ninja room and then noticed that Asuka was gone. "Asuka? Huh, she really is a ninja."
"I'm back!" Asuka said as she suddenly reappeared behind Sora wearing a green and white girl's gym uniform with hanzo academy's crest on the jacket.
"Okay, where to now?" Sora asked.
"Right here." Asuka said as she reached up to a rope hanging from the ceiling and pulled it to open up a hole in the wall with a slide in it.
"Come on! Let's go!" Asuka prompted Sora as she jumped into the hole and disappeared down the slide as Sora sticked his head in to take a look.
"That looks like a long way down. Okay.." Sora said to himself as he took a few steps back and then ran into the slide.
"Gerimamo!" Sora shouted as his voice echo faded down the slide and the hole closed up behind him.
(Hanzo gym)
"No way! I totally had you!" A blond girl wearing a white and blue girl's gym uniform with japanese writing over her busty chest claimed as she pointed angrily at a girl with long black hair wearing a purple and black tracksuit with the hanzo academy symbol on her jacket.
"Settle down, Katsu. Maybe you're just mad that I'm finally getting used to sparring with you hand to hand." The calm girl said.
"I'm sorry Katsuragi. But I think Ikaruga won that one." A bubbly girl with pink hair and very unique pupils wearing a girl's gym uniform of her own spoke up.
"Hibari's right. Your technique was no match for her this time." Another girl with white hair tied up in pigtails and an eyepatch over her right eye and had a whole dried squid hanging in her mouth.
"That's not fair! I haven't woken up from this morning yet! Maybe a little squeezing might wake me up!" The girl named Katsugari said prevertelly while wiggling her fingers.
"Don't even start!" The girl named Ikaruga said as she put her arms over her chest defensefully as Asuka landed gracefully on the gym floor after falling from the ceiling.
"Hey girls, sorry I'm late." Asuka apologized for her tardiness.
"There you are! You better have a good excuse for being late." Ikaruga said annoyed.
"Well, I actually ran into some weird monsters on the way here." Asuka explained her encounter with the heartless.
"Are the yoma back again?" Hibari asked, scared.
"I betcha you kick their asses while flaunting those awesome bosoms of yours!" Katsugari said as she grabbed Asuka's chest and started groping her.
"Ah! Cut it out Katsu!" Asuka complanied as she pushed away her perverted classmate as the blond was laughing. "Actually, I don't think they were yoma. They were too different and when they defeated,some sort of hearts floated away from them after they disappeared."
"Those don't sound like yoma at all." Yagyu said.
"Yeah, I know. But there's also another reason why I was late. I brought someone with me." Asuka explained.
"Someone from one of the other schools?" Ikaruga asked.
"Uh, actually…" Asuka said scratching her cheek like she did something wrong.
"Ah!" Sora yelped as he fell to the floor after dropping from the ceiling and got to and rubbed his aching back.
"Well I hope there are some stairs next time." Sora complained and was then alarmed by the sounds of weapons being drawn to see a katana, an umbrella, and an iron boot pointed at his face by Ikaruga, Katsuragi and Yagyu who had Hibari hiding behind her while Asuka looked worried for the keyblade wielder.
"Did I do something wrong already?"
Sora's journal
Sora: The hero of the worlds and chosen wielder of the keyblade. Not long ago, Sora along with his best friend Riku took the mark of mastery exam to become true keyblade masters and learn the power of waking. However, the evil keyblade master, Xehanort had led Sora into a trap to turn him into a dark vessel. However, Sora's friends had saved him, but nearly becoming a vessel had drained Sora of most of his power. Now, Sora has traveled to a new world and met Asuka and her friends to train to regain his lost power.
Asuka: A young shinobi ninja in training and granddaughter of the legendary ninja that found her school. Like Sora, she values her friends above all and aspires to become a great ninja just like her grandfather.
Ikaruga: A young shinobi ninja in training and the class representative of the hanzo class. Ikaruga was adopted by her family when her brother failed to show promise as a shinobi and she inherited the family sword Hien, leading to feelings of guilt. Now those feelings have been replaced by belonging when she joined Hanzo academy and met the other students.
Katsuragi: A young shinobi ninja in training and a third year at Hanzo academy. Katsuragi's parents disappeared at a young age when they failed an important mission which would result in their demise. So to spare their daughter, Katsuragi's parents left her behind and motivated her to become a great enough ninja one day to bring her family home. When she isn't training, she is usually sexually harassing her classmates.
Yagyu: A young shinobi in training and a first year at Hanzo academy. Yagyu is protective of her classmate and best friend Hibari since she reminds Yagyu of her deceased younger sister, who died in a traffic accident which can lead her to moments of recklessness.
Hibari: A young shinobi in training and a first year at Hanzo academy. Despite that Hibari has low skills as a shinobi, she was chosen to be the next head of her family, giving her low confidence in herself with all the peer pressure. Despite that, Hibari becomes greatly positive when around her friends.
