"Hey bastard!" Shouted Naruto Uzumaki, a second year academy student, as he spotted a familiar face walk into classroom.
"What do you want, screwup?" Asked Sasuke Uchiha, a fellow second year academy student, as he sat down next to the whiskered kid.
Naruto had spiky blond hair, blue eyes, three whisker marks on his cheeks, and orange jacket with no sleeves, a blue shirt under that, and a pair of grey shorts.
Sasuke had black hair which spiked in the back and framed his face, black eyes, a black, high collared shirt with the Uchiha crest on the back, and grey shorts.
"It's Friday, and the last day of school. You know what that means, right?" Asked Naruto with a splitting grin on his face.
"Of course I do. It means I'll finally settle the score and prove I'm better." Sasuke answered with a smirk. The two of them have been having a competition to see who was the best in taijutsu. The current score was 20-20. Today was the final chance to see who was the best among their class. The other students were no match for either of the clan heirs, apart from Kiba Inuzuka, but he was irrelevant once he was angry.
"I told you I was going to win this spar, like I have the last three spars." Explained Naruto.
"You got lucky those times." Argued the Uchiha.
"And the other seventeen times?" Asked the blonde.
"The horde of fangirls cheering us on distracted me." Sasuke explained quickly, playing the part of an embarrassed kid perfectly. . Both of them shuddered at the thought of their fangirls.
"I admit, they can be pretty distracting with their banshee-like screams, but that's no excuse." Argued the Uzumaki.
"Then why was I able to beat you in the twenty spars I won?" Asked Sasuke.
"You beat me fair and square." Naruto said with a shrug. Before Sasuke could retort, their sensei, Iruka, yelled at everyone.
"Quiet you snot-nosed brats!" Yelled Iruka. Everyone looked at him in stunned silence. He had never called them brats, let alone calling them beats of the snot-nosed variety. "Just kidding, but I seriously do want you to shut up." Iruka said with a smile.
Iruka wore a standard chunin outfit. He had a blue body suit with the Uzumaki swirl on each shoulder, a chunin vest, and his forehead protector on a blue cloth around his forehead. He had a scar running across the bridge of his nose and brown hair pulled into ponytail.
"I would like to congratulate you all on making it through your second year. Most of you have worked very hard to make it here." He pauses to look at a kid sleeping, a kid eating potato chips, and a kid playing with a white dog. "Anyway, it is Friday, so as per tradition, we will be holding friendly spars. Choose your opponent. Remember, if one person chooses you, you can either choose that person, too, or someone else." Anything after "opponent" fell on deaf ears as everyone started rushing around the room choosing their opponents.
*Time Skip*
"Begin!"
The first fight was underway. It was between Kiba Inuzuka, the kid with the dog, and Choji Akimichi, the kid eating potato chips.
Kiba had short brown hair, black eyes, red fang-like markings on his cheeks, a navy blue jacket zipped just below the middle of his sternum, below that was a fishnet shirt, he also had on tan colored shorts.
Choji Akimichi was a plump kid who had spiky, light brown hair, black eyes, swirls on his cheeks, a jacket that was half tan and half green, and shorts that were dark blue.
The match was decided quickly. Kiba dropped into his family's taijutsu style and pounded away on Choji until Mizuki, their taijutsu teacher, called the match to a stop.
"Kiba Inuzuka is the winner!" Announced Mizuki.
The next match was between Ino Yamanaka and Sakura Haruno.
Ino was a blond girl with shoulder length hair, blue eyes, an orange shirt, and white shorts. She was the president of the Naruto Uzumaki Fan Club.
Sakura had pink hair tied out of her face with a red bow, green eyes, a red, long-sleeved shirt, and pink pants. She was the president of the Sasuke Uchiha Fan Club.
"Begin!"
"Come one, Forehead. Let me show my Naruto what I can do." Taunted Ino.
"Like you could do anything, Ino-pig. I'll show my Sasuke what I can do." Retorted Sakura.
"Someone attack!" Yelled Kiba.
With those words of encouragement, both parties launched attacks. Sakura knocked Ini out in one punch. Ino also knocked Sakura out in one punch.
"Um, I guess it's a tie." Announced Mizuki. "Get them to the infirmary!" Ordered Mizuki. Within seconds, a chunin had grabbed them both and took off into the academy.
"Okay, next is Hinata Hyuga versus Takahashi Yozuba." Both participants entered the circle and faced each other. Hinata dropped into her family taijutsu style, the gentle fist. Takahashi dropped into the academy style.
Hinata was the clan heir to Hyuga, therefore she had pale eyes, signifying she had Byakugan. She had dark blue hair cut short, a tan jacket with a purple shirt understand, and pale grey pants.
Takahashi had long black hair reaching his mid back, brown eyes, and wore a full body suit that was black.
"Begin!"
Immediately, Hinata activated her Byakugan, rushed forward, and delivered a palm strike to Takahashi's chest. He flew back, hit a tree, and was knocked unconscious.
"Winner, Hinata Hyuga." Announced Mizuki.
"Way to go Hinata!" Shouted Kiba.
"O-oh. Th-thank y-you." Hinata said while blushing and pushing her index fingers together.
"Wow, that was the quickest match I've ever seen. I didn't know she had it in her." Said Sasuke.
"I agree. I'm surprised she's not farther up on the class ranking." Naruto contributed.
"Winner, Mokuba Hana." Announced Mizuki.
"Did you see me win, Sasuke?" Asked Mokuba.
"Hn." Replied the Uchiha.
"Easy, emo." Said the blonde with a snicker.
"Shut up." Said Sasuke in an exasperated tone.
"Only if you win." Teased the Uzumaki.
"Winner, Suki Yaki" Mizuki announced.
"How did I do, Naruto?" Suki asked in a sweet tone.
"I wasn't paying attention" Naruto dead panned.
"Next is Shikamaru Nara versus Shino Aburame!" Shouted Mizuki.
"Can I just forfeit?" Asked a kid with his black hair in a pineapple bun, a grey shirt with the Nara clan symbol on it, and dark blue shorts.
"Don't you always?" Asked Shino Aburame. He had brown hair sticking, a white and orange sweatband around his forehead, a high collared, grey coat, and dark grey long shorts.
"Good point. I forfeit." Yawned Shikamaru.
"Winner by forfeit, Shino Aburame" Announced Mizuki in an exasperated tone.
"Wow, that's just like Shikamaru to forfeit." Naruto explained.
"I guess. I don't really care, as long as I get to fight you." Sasuke said.
"The feeling is mutual."
"Time for the final match up, Sasuke Uchiha versus Naruto Uzumaki." Announced Mizuki.
"Let's go and settle this year's score!" Exclaimed Naruto. Both of them went into the circle, both dropping into their separate taijutsu styles.
"Begin!"
A/N:This is an idea I've had in my head or quite some time now. The idea has developed enough that I'm ready to start typing it up. Just like my other story, this will not be prewritten. But unlike my other story, this one will have no pairing.
I also did research, and that's how I came up with the scoring for their taijutsu spars. Every Friday, the class has a spar, and there are 41 weeks, by my count, in a Japanese school year, excluding holidays that fall on Friday.
Thanks for reading this chapter, and I strongly encourage you to read my other story as well.
