The Second Awakening

Daniel, only wearing his karate pants, goes down stairs to see who is at the door. The knife wound is bleeding a little but Daniel has locked out the pain and forgotten about the wound mostly because of his intense workout. Daniel reaches the door and opens it. Outside in full uniform two police officers are standing.

"Good day son. How did you come about that wound in your side?" one officer asks curious

"I tripped in the kitchen when I was cutting my dinner." Daniel lied but he did it well.

"Oh really. Where were you after school?" the other officer asks.

"Umm here at home. Making dinner."

"Really? We found your blood at the docks along with four bodies. One is stabbed in the chest, another had a knife buried in his temple, and a third had his jugular slit open with a knife laying next to it. We found the last body in the ocean with its skull caved in. Your contacts are also there. Both pairs." The first officer states.

"Ok. I was there. The four boys dragged me into their SUV, which you obviously found, and attacked me. I fought back. I knocked out the first three…" Daniel starts but gets interrupted.

"Then why did you kill them?" the second officer asks again while taking notes.

"I'm trying to tell you. The leader of them started stabbing at me with two knives. He got my side about the same time I shifted the aim of one knife. That knife landed in the first guy's chest. I retreated and spun kicked a knife away and that one buried itself in the temple of the second guy. The third guy died when I snap-kicked the other knife away and it landed badly. The last guy I kicked off the dock. He fell wrong and split his skull. I couldn't try to help them because of my own badly bleeding wound."

"A likely story…"the second officer starts and then his partner stops him

"Thank you for your time. We'll contact you if we have to bring you in for official questioning. We can't keep a record of this because your parents are not present nor is a lawyer appointed to you present."

"What ever. Can I go? My cut is hurting me." Daniel is a little annoyed.

"Yes. We're leaving too." The first officer turns and walks to his car. Daniel makes sure they leave before redressing his wound.

Daniel rests for awhile before he sees that it's time for karate class. He knows the Sharingan can be tested safely here under the guise of increased skill and practice as long as he doesn't push it.

Daniel set off to the class with his Bo-staff in hand holding his bag. He changes his eyes to full Sharingan before he goes in. He sees the chakra flow of people and notices something different about his best-friend Cameron; Cameron's chakra has a strong concentration near his eyes. Daniel can't see the tenketsu or chakra circulatory system but he can see the flow and concentration of it. Cameron has always liked the Byakugan and he wears contacts that resemble it.

"New contacts?" Cameron asks not noticing they are truly Sharingan.

"Yeah. I figured as a reward to my new rank I should increase my tomoe level." Daniel says light heatedly.

The sensei announces class to begin and so Daniel and Cameron enter. Daniel sits but winces and explains it away to those who asked if he was all right that, "I'm just al little stiff from working out and practicing."

"Daniel since you've practiced you can start. I want you to spar with…Matt." The sensei wants to test Daniel's practice or lack of.

Daniel gulps because Matt is the best fighter of the group. Matt and Daniel walk to the center of the mat and bow. They have each chosen a weapon to use, Daniel the Bo-staff and Matt much preferred two tambo. Daniel's rank is green and Mat's is blue. If Daniel win then he becomes a blue belt automatically according to his sensei. Matt and Daniel bow to each other before adopting their stance. Matt lunges with both tambo, aiming for Daniel's knees. Daniel spins the staff quickly around and knocks the tambo away. Daniel begins doing the basic seven strikes at very high speed. The staff seems to be a full sphere due to the intense speed Daniel is generating and controlling. Suddenly, with Matt looking to block strikes from the side, Daniel quickly stops the spin and pokes Matt in the belly lightly.

"Poke, you're out." Daniel smiles

"What the? Where did that come from? Well looks like I just got owned" Matt is really amazed at the speed and control.

"You may both sit. Daniel you are now a blue belt. Unfortunately I need to get one because I'm out of belts at the moment." His sensei laughs but quietly thinks to himself. "That would have gotten me"

Daniel sits back down and lays his staff behind him. The lesson continues with out incident. Daniel and Cameron leave together.

"Hey Cameron you coming over tonight?"

"Yeah man. You gotta teach me that."

Cameron and Daniel laugh as they head to Daniel's house. When they arrive Daniel grabs the first aid kit and takes off his shirt. There for the world to see it the blood soaked bandage.

"Dude what happened? You gotta go to the police. " Cameron is pissed and worried at the same time.

"Don't worry I won." Daniel retells the story in truth.

"So the eyes? Their real?" Cameron is in awe.

Daniel changes them back too regular. "I'm low on Chakra right now."

"Wow that's cool and weird. Why tell me?" Cameron is kind of freaked out by all this.

"I think you may have it too. Or something like it. I noticed a strong Chakra flow near your eyes. Do you want something like this?"

"Of course. Tell me what to do."

"First concentrate on your eyes. Think hard about increasing your Chakra flow there. Close your eyes and then quickly open them."

Cameron does as he is told. After a few seconds he feels a pulse at his eyes and he is seeing through his eyelids and all around.

"Umm Daniel I think it's the Byakugan not the Sharingan."

"Why is that?" Daniel queries

"I can see your couch behind me and your chakra holes." Cameron opens his eyes and they are pure white.

"Holy crap. Hurry try and drop it."

Cameron does but his eyes stay whitish-gray.

"Yeah good thing you have worn the blind eye contacts and so it's about the same looking."

"That's easy for you to say. You're not the one with the permanently white eyes." Cameron is worried about what to do later.

"Let's try to stay calm. Nobody will notice as long as you don't freak out…"

"NO ONE WILL NOTICE. MY EYES ARE WHITE!"

"And mine are RED! Granted not always but I'm going to always use them."

"What? Why?"

"Because it's a gift. We are special. You always said it would be cool to have the Byakugan. Well now you do."

"Fine. I'm stuck with it now. So what's next?"

"We have fun. Now activate those eyes of yours to build your strength." They both activate at about the same time.

Cameron decides he needs to learn how to use the Byakugan.

"Naruto marathon time." They say almost in unison. And flip on the TV. After some time they get hungry. Daniel decides to try the Kage Bushin.

"Kage Bushin no jutsu!" A puff of smoke appears along with a perfect clone of Daniel. The clone makes a meal for them both and brings it over then dispels. Daniel realizes he "remembers" how he made the meal but decides not to tell Cameron. Daniel and Cameron eat their dinner and watch more Naruto from the internet. After a few hours Daniel, then Cameron have to drop their dojutsu and sleep, so they do. During the night their sensei begins training to be able to actually teach people how to beat Daniel from what he saw in that last fight.
