"Yes." The three brothers bid their father farewel and rushed to the academy, as their mother, Uchiha Mikoto shouted out to Yagami, "Don't forget to drop by Uchiha Senbeiya(Uchiha sweet rice crackers shop) for Sasuke, he hasn't had his breakfast yet!" Hearing the words from his mother, Yagami told the two to go on first as he will catch up. At the store, Uchiha Teyaki, the store owner was busy packing his stocks on the store when Yagami came.
"Ah Yagami, take your time to choose, when you're ready pass them to Uruchi ya?" Already late, Yagami grabbed three rice cakes and told Uchiha Uruchi to quickly pack them.
"Why are you in such a rush?"
"I'm already late for school Uruchi-san, thanks, I'll pay you when I come home!" As Yagami dashed off to the academy. Upon reaching he was greeted by Ibiki, together with his two younger brothers. Giving the stern look, he greeted the three Uchihas. "Well well, what do we have here? The Uchiha brothers, what a surprise. You're still early Sasuke, but as for your brothers they are an hour late. Run along now lad, I'll speak with you two." Sasuke wanted to admit his mistake but didn't have the courage to own up. In Ibiki's office, Yagami & Itachi were interrogated by the rugged shinobi. After much confrontation, Yagami stood up and answered back with a firm tone, "Ibiki sensei, we were unaware that Sasuke's lessons would start at this time as we usually go to the academy together, So if you want to put the blame on someone, put it on me!"
"What? Why you...daring to speak to me in that manner..." Just than, a knock on the door was heard, it was Yagami's partner, Hatake Kakashi. Preventing further disputes, Kakashi came in and interrupted, "Ah, Uchiha Yagami and Uchiha Itachi, I was looking all over for you two. The 3rd Hokage wants to see you both." Hearing that name, Ibiki immediately stopped and released the two brothers. Along the corridor, Kakashi bid Itachi good luck for the Chuunin exams held later as he brought Yagami to the Hokage's office. Yagami was a very special shinobi, as most Genins work in a team of three, Yagami was trained as a solitary ninja and under the supervision of the 3rd Hokage, making him the next Hokage in line. Kakashi was only brought in later as a accomplice to aid him in his missions followed by Umino Iruka. While walking, Kakashi decided to break the silence.
"Yagami, you always seem to be protecting your younger brothers and taking their burdens, I really take my hat off to you." Yagami gave a smile to his comrade.
"The mind of a child is very exquisite, I want them to see a brighter side of life." Reaching the front doors, they opened it slowly to see a large table and two chairs. And sitting on one of them was the greatest of all shinobis in Konoha, the great 3rd Hokage.
"Good luck, this will determine your future." Kakashi said to Yagami as he left the two in private. The young Chuunin walked forwards and took his seat. On the table laid papers with graphs and words. Wondering what has all those have got to do with him, that thought weighed heavily in his mind. Finally the Hokage spoke, "Yagami, based on your recent tests and missions you have been progressing well, but we already have sufficient Jounins. I'm terribly sorry Yagami, but I'm re-locating you as a special class Jounin in training ANBU shinobis."
Time seemed to freeze for a moment. Yagami couldn't believe what he had just heard; he was in charge of training the group of special elite shinobis that were picked by the Hokage himself. The Hokage than handed Yagami his Jounin outfit and told him to report at the ANBU's training area. This was the greatest day of his entire life, becoming a Jounin was enough to make Yagami contented but to become a special class Jounin intraining ANBUs was definitely unexpected.
In another part ofthe academy, Itachi was ready and confident as he sat for his Chuunin exams. The results was him emerging as the youngest Genin to ever become a full-pledged Chuunin. The same was going exceptionally well for Sasuke as he was named the best academy student. When it was time for their breaks, the three Uchiha brothers met up. Both Itachi and Sasuke were delighted with joy as they shared their achievements with each other. When it was their elder brother's turn, he sat down before telling them in a depressed state, "I...I...I'm being re-located."
