How can someone like you get to enjoy life? Once a failure always a failure you can't change that.
The next couple of days went by in a jiff. Next thing she knows it was already time for her last year in middle school. After the same old morning routine at home she went to school. Greeted by a couple of old ladies in the neighbourhood on her way to school. Getting a few cough drops and senbei from them.
"Do you want more tea Naru-chan?" "Yes please jiji!"
She continues her way to school until she can see the familar gates of her school Nakai Geno Academy. Walking past the gates, and into the hallways she was greeted by a couple of her juniors as she made her way to her classroom. Opening the door she saw her classmates once again creating havoc.
"Naruto! K...! S...! C...! Come back here you Rascals!" "No way I...-sensei!"
She must've had a really disappointed look on her face. Because upon seeing her at the door her classmates looked at her with sheepish smiles. Smiling in amusement she quickly brings back peace in the room.
Peace? What do you know about peace? You demon...
After that finally sits on her desk and before she could even bring out her books. Her friends immediately crowds her. "How was your vacation Naru-chan?" Miko ,a pretty goth girl, asks her. "It was good Mi-chan! Got a few extra cash from work." "Do you still work at that cafe?" Kei, a handsome otaku, questions her. "Yeah. I still am Kei-chan!" The trio spends the time before homeroom catching up. When the bell rang they went back to their seats with the promise of continuing it at lunch. The day went smoothly in Naruto's mind. Liar. New classmates and new teachers were a good kind of change. Once the bell rang, she stretches her arms. Then grabs her bag and leaves the room with her friends.
Heading towards the roof, upon reaching it a nice cool breeze welcomes them. Sitting at their usual place they said their thanks and ate lunch. While eating they talked about silly things at first before Miko asked her. "So Naru-chan did you finally figure out what you wanna do after middle school?" Naruto looks at the sky for a few seconds before answering.
"To be hokage that is my dream!"
"I wanna be a cloud."
"I loved you for a long time. Do you know why I love looking at clouds? Because their in the sky which has the same color of your eyes. It's a drag, confessing now when were about to go to war." "Shika I..." "I know Naruto. I've known from the start that you will never be mine. It's the U... bastard you love right?"
Cue the deadpaned silence. Her friends looks at her but finding no hint of humour on her face. They knew she was dead serious in her want to be a cloud. "O-Okay? Sure you can be a cloud if you want to Naru-chan right Miko?" Kei looked at her which got her furiously nodding in agreement. "Y-Yeah! If you want to be a cloud then of course you can be one! No one will judge you for that."
Judge? Oh if you only know the truth. You'll do more than just judge me.
Beaming she continued eating her lunch. But her friends looked at her with mixed emotions. 'I know that Naru-chan has things she doesn't want to talk to us about. But I know this isn't where her road will end.' They both said in their minds, clearly remembering the day they each met her.
(Flashback: Miko)
*Screams* "Ha! That's all you got bitch?!" "Hahaha! Go hit her harder Yo-chan!" "P-Please sto-op!" "Huh? You want me to stop ya baka ona?! Then make me stop!" Four slightly older kids were ganging up on a single girl. Yet not one person dared to stop just bypassing the kids. They continued to bully her, making her cry out but that didn't stop them.
'Why? Why won't they stop? It hurts, Mama... Papa... Anybody please help me!' She screamed when Yo stepped on her hand. Tears falling down her cheeks she knew no one will help her. But all of a sudden a loud yell could be heard. Then one of the bullies just fell down on his front. Letting out a yelp when someone stepped on his back.
This someone was no other than Uzumaki Naruto. Who recently moved to Saitama. A weird girl as others would call her, because she was always seen in bandages that covers her body except her face. She was pretty and smart, but has a weird verbal tic.
"Hey ya jerks! What the hell do you think yer doing dattebayo?!" The bullies stared at her and promptly snorts in amusement. "Ya think yer scary little girl?!" "What can a little twig like you can do?" "Hahaha a delicate bitch like you should just walk away." A tick mark could be seen on her forehead. And Miko could see her glare at the boys before she smiled.
And suddenly disappears from their sight, shocking her and the bullies. Next thing she knows is the bullies dropping down one by one. Miko was shock to see them drop dead and actually Yo was the only one struggling to get up. "Y-you! I will get back at ya!" Uzumaki just smiled and asked, "What's your name teme?" "The names Kuho Yousuke not teme baka!"
"Well the names Uzumaki Naruto dattebayo! If I see you bully anyone again I will smack you until you pass out." Ignoring him she walked towards Miko who was still crying. Miko was gently pulled up by her and she was led to a deeper part of the park. After making her sit down, Uzumaki pulled out a roll of bandages from her pouch as well as an ointment.
As she was gently cleaning her wounds Miko spoke. "Thank you Uzumaki-san." Uzumaki looks at her, finishes treating her wounds then she says. "It's not right to bully someone. And its not right to just stand by doing nothing. If I can reach you then I will help you no matter what! Because helping others is what heroes do! And I'm gonna be the greatest hero someday dattebayo!"
Looking at her with awe in her eyes. Miko was amazed by her words and she felt the need to befriend her. But before she could even say anything Uzumaki says, "Got to go! See you around raven!" before disappearing. Miko looks at the place she stood before she disappeared. A small smile lit up her face as she thinks of that weird girl who helped her.
"I hope we see each other real soon hero."
(Flash back end)
They've finished eating lunch and were on their way back to class. Once they were in the classroom they went back to their respective seats. Kei and Naruto were just one sit apart with her seat beside the window. Which was slightly open then a small gust of wind made her golden hair sway. The sight made him look back on the day he met her.
(Flashback: Kei)
Moving to a new city wasn't easy for a kid like Kei. He just wanted to march right out of the house and go back to their former home. The home where he could actually talk to people about his hobbies and not get bullied because of it. 'Mom and Dad don't understand what its like to be the only otaku here.'
But Kei just pressed on and just pretended that the bullies were just fake monsters. With that in mind he had mostly survived the first few months of school. One day thou it seems his luck had run out. He was about to go home when suddenly... Someone pushes him against the lockers letting him accidentally dropping his things. "Heya Kei-chan~ thought you could go home without saying goodbye?"
"Hashimoto-kun w-what do you want?" Hashimoto's friends laugh at him while Hashimoto looks pissed. "What do I want Kei-chan~? I want your nerdy nobody ass to stay away from Naruto-san." 'Naruto-san? The prettiest girl in school?! Why would Hashimoto-kun mention her? I can't even talk to her without stuttering!' "What do you mean Hashimoto-kun?"
He slams him towards the lockers once more and yells, "What I mean is you stay away from Naruto-san! She's too great and beautiful to hang out with a damn nerd like you! And she's gonna be a hero someday which means she has no time for nerds like you! Do. You. Understand. Shitty Nerd?!" "Y-yes! Hashimoto-kun..." Smilling triumphantly he backs off and leaves with his friends in tow. Kei sighs and starts to pick up his stuff on the floor.
He was about to pick up his books when a hand picks it up for him. Looking up a thank you ready on his lips but instead croaks out a "N-Naruto-san!" 'Oh god. Oh god. Oh god. OH GOD! Right after Hashimoto-kun warned me. God you really do hate me!' "Are you alright? You look a little faint." Kei abruptly stands up takes the books, yells out his thanks and quickly runs away.
Not knowing that Naruto was worriedly starring at his back.
(Time Skip: 3 days later)
Kei tried his very best to avoid Hashimoto's group as well as Naruto-san. Who seems to be looking for him even thou they're from different classes. Making him somewhat terrified and glad. For the last 3 days he avoided going to places alone. He always made sure their would be atleast 4 or 5 people there. 'Well sooner or later Hashimoto-kun will find me.'
"Oi! Nerd!" 'I didn't mean to make sooner now!' Kei walked down the hallways adjusting the glasses on his face. Suddenly he was shoved up against the lockers. The school bullies, Hashimoto , Minoru, Kaito and Aoi were standing their smirking at him. He gulped as Hashimoto said "Hey nerd. What did I tell you before?" Kei stayed quiet. Fearing if he talked he would hit him.
But that seemed to make him mad.
"ANSWER ME!" He yelled. Kei stayed quiet. He then slams him against the locker and growled "The nerds gone mute, huh?" Hashimoto smashed his fist into Kei's face. He cried out and grabbed his face. Another fist came down on his stomach knocking the air out of him.
Kei gasped for air as the four laughed at his pain.
But before they could hurt him even more a voice yells out. "Stop hurting him dattebayo!" Hashimoto freezes and everyone turns their heads at the same time and sees Naruto with a frown on her face. Before Hashimoto could try to weasel his way out of this she pushes through them and kneels down besides Kei. "Ya alright?" Kei stares at her eyes and finally says, "Y-yes! I think." Naruto stands up and stares at Hashimoto, whispers something Kei couldn't hear. But judging by the looks on their face it wasn't good. They then nod their heads and ran far away from them. Kei lets out a breathe he didn't know he was holding back. Naruto helps him up and picks his things for him.
She takes out some ointment from her bag and puts some on his bruising cheek. Kei blushes at the gentle touch and whispers out a thank you. She smiles making his heartbeat flutter at the sight of it. "No problem kit! I can't just stand by when someone is in trouble. Don't worry about Ahomoto anymore I took care of it."
Before Kei could say something she already disappeared. Feeling a smile lit up his face he breathes out.
"I hope we can see each other again my Hero."
(Flashback end)
Bonus Scene:
Naruto was on her way to class after getting the print outs from the faculty. Finding her new classroom was easy once inside happy to see that their teacher was still not there. She left the print outs on the desk but before she could even take another step 2 voices yelled out. "Uzumaki-san/Naruto-san!"
'Huh?' And that was the start of their beautiful friendship.
