Mario11445: Thanks to sakura Love shadow, I finally got some good names. Thank you.
Seven months later
Aniki woke up, refreshed and energized, today was the day they took the graduation test for the Academy. Aniki squealed when she saw Cyrus waiting outside, she hurried to go outside to meet him. Eventually she came out and gave Cyrus a hug. Cyrus noticed the gourd on her back filled with sand and smiled, she had inherited sand control from her father and medical skills and brains from her mother. Cyrus had his own jutsu, something no one knew because he hadn't used it in public yet. The gourd was originally Gaara's childhood gourd and he gladly gave it to Aniki to practice and use. Cyrus carried a short sword on his belt and he was in his ninja jumpsuit. (the jumpsuit is not green!) The suit was black and there was a green bandanna on his forehead, the belt that carried the sword was brown and under the lower part of the pants were weights.
In the Graduation test the students were told to use their jutsu's and if they could pull off certain things then they passed. Basically all they had to do was master the jutsu. Cyrus only had one jutsu to master and Aniki had two. They both passed. Aniki was extremely happy when she heard that Cyrus had passed and she went to take her test.
The examiners saw the gourd on her back and immediately passed her for that, you didn't even need to take a test for something that moves on its own accord. They tested her on her taijutsu and medical ninjutsu skills. Aniki passed with more then flying colors. They told her she had passed and gave her her headband. Aniki squealed and wrapped it around her waist, Cyrus had put his on his shoulder.
Mario11445: Remind you of anybody? Hehe.
Cyrus waited in the classroom with all the others who had passed and saw Aniki enter, looking for him. Cyrus saw the headband on her waist and smiled, she had passed, Aniki saw him and waved. Cyrus blushed and she gave him a hug while being stared at, Aniki stuck out her tongue and the class laughed. They waited for the examiners to finish grading the others, out of ten, nine passed, the other had gone home. The examiners came into the room and announced each individuals name, who had passed, and their jutsu. Cyrus's jutsus were, medical ninjutsu, taijutsu, and suiton techniques. (water jutsu) Aniki's jutsus were, medical ninjutsu, taijutsu, and sand.
Cyrus blushed as the class turned to stare at him in disbelief of his suiton jutsu, Aniki smiled and hugged him, eyes closed. Everybody's jutsus were revealed and were congratulated on passing to become Genin. They were told to sit and they were told which team they were in. Aniki ignored them until she heard her name.
"Sabaku no Aniki," Aniki was listening intently, "Sitem Nara," Aniki squeezed Cyrus's hand, "and Cyrus Hanau" Aniki squealed, loudly. Cyrus smiled and sighed in relief, he didn't want to part with Aniki.
"Team six consists of Sabaku no Aniki, Siteim Nara, and Cyrus Hanau. Please wait in room six for your Jonin sensei." The examiner said. Aniki and Cyrus made their way to room six, Siteim had already gotten there when they exited the room.
"I wonder what our sensei will be like." Aniki said, Cyrus shrugged. Aniki sighed and they were about to enter the room when Cyrus spotted an eraser lodged in the door. He pointed it out to Aniki and she covered them with her sand and entered the room. The erased fell on the sand, causing Siteim to pout, Aniki laughed and Cyrus smiled.
They sat down and waited for their sensei, Aniki started to fall asleep when their sensei walked in. The eraser fell, Siteim had put it back up, and Aniki's sand flew over to protect him from having chalk dust in his hair. The Jonin looked up to see the sand over his head come down to eye level to reveal an eraser. He picked it up, nodded to Aniki, and put the eraser back on the chalkboard. Siteim was pouting again, Aniki and Cyrus were laughing at her.
"Well my first impression of you," he looked at Siteim, "you are an idiot," Siteim pouted and he turned his attention to Aniki, "you like to spoil peoples fun just for laughs," Aniki smiled, he turned to Cyrus and he blushed, "you seem like a shy boy." Cyrus blushed more.
"My name is Baki, you will refer to me as sensei or master at all times." Baki said.
"Hai, Baki-sensei!" Aniki said, then, "Didn't you teach my father and godparents?" Baki smiled.
"Yes I did." Siteim was interested now, Cyrus was confused and Aniki squealed. "You will be taking a test to see if you are worthy of becoming Genin." Baki said.
"Wait we already took one, why do we have to take another master?" Siteim asked, Baki smiled.
"This is a physical test, before we continue with that tell me some things about yourself."
"What do you mean?" Cyrus asked.
"Well, start of with your name, things you like, things you hate, hobbies, stuff like that." Aniki smiled,
"Can you go first sensei?" she said cutely, Baki wasn't phased.""Well, my name, as you already know is Baki, I don't fell like saying my last name, things I like, not that much, things I hate, don't feel like telling you that either, hobbies... well I don't have any." Baki smirked. "There now its your turn." Aniki frowned.
"Fine My name is Aniki, I like..." Aniki giggled and looked at Cyrus, "Cyrus, I hate... my cousin" She pointed to Siteim, "and I don't know if I have any hobbies." Baki smiled and looked at Cyrus.
Cyrus blushed, "Ano my name is Cyrus... I like... Aniki, There isn't anything I hate, I think..." They couldn't get anything else out of him. It was Siteim's turn.
"My name is Siteim, I hate everything, and my hobbies are pulling pranks on my cousin." she said, Aniki stuck out her tongue.
"You never succeed though." Aniki said, Siteim pouted, Baki scratched his head.
"Meet me at the third training ground at 0500 hours." They groaned, "If you're going to eat something, make sure it's an apple."
"Why?" Aniki asked, Baki smiled,
"You'll puke." Aniki cringed.
Aniki woke up at 4:00 she was extremely tired so she got a shower and grabbed an apple, she saw Cyrus waiting for her, just as tired as she was. Aniki squealed, now awake, and kissed his cheek, making him wake up and blush. Siteim's eyes were closed as they approached the training ground, Aniki laughed and Cyrus smiled. Siteim glared at them and they waited for their sensei.
Four hours later Baki finally appeared and laughed at the sight, Aniki and Cyrus were asleep and holding each other and Siteim was in the distance asleep ad drooling. Baki's laugh woke them up, Siteim glared at Baki, Aniki and Cyrus blushed when they saw how close they were to each other.
"What took you so long!?" Siteim yelled, Baki continued laughing.
"Now, your assignment." Baki calmed down and took out two bells, Aniki smiled, she knew what was going on, Aniki had trained under Gaara and he taught her the meaning of the bells. Aniki had taken the bells from her father many times on her own. "Is to take these bells from me." he attached the bells to his vest. "By noon, you must take them." he took out a timer and started it, "if you don't come at me like your going to kill me, you will never get these bells." Cyrus smiled evilly all traces of shyness had completely disappeared, he grasped the sword by his belt and pulled. The sword was longer then the holder.
"Glad I'm wearing my fighting gear then." Cyrus smiled. Cyrus looked around for water, obviously to use his suiton techniques. He found a small river and smiled, Cyrus turned his attention back to Baki. Aniki whispered a plan in Cyrus's ear, Cyrus nodded and told Siteim. Siteim, however had other plans and charged Baki, Baki frowned and easily escaped. Siteim cursed and searched for Baki. Aniki had a change of plans because of her good-for-nothing cousin and whispered it in Cyrus's ear, Cyrus nodded.
After forming hand signs he said, "Water style: Water dragon bomb jutsu!" A dragon made of water soared at incredible speed towards where Baki hid. Baki was frozen in place for some reason, he looked down and saw hardened sand holding him to the tree. The jutsu nailed him when the sand released him just in time that it wouldn't get wet, Baki had no time to react and was hit to the forest floor. The sand took the bells and Aniki gave one to Cyrus.
"That was good." Baki said, Aniki and Cyrus together could have killed him, "Good teamwork, you two pass." Siteim pouted,
"Wait what about me?!" She yelled, Baki sighed.
"You refused to cooperate with Cyrus and Aniki." He said.
Siteim pouted, Aniki saw the sad look on her cousins face and said, "Actually sensei... we told her to charge out like that so you would go to a nearby tree. Then I could catch you with my sand." Cyrus smiled and nodded in agreement, Siteim gave them a look that said 'thanks guys' Baki smiled and nodded, he knew that wasn't their plan but he would pass Siteim because Aniki was prepared to lie to make sure Siteim stayed a Genin.
"Very well then." Baki said. "You will have your first mission as a team tomorrow." Aniki squealed and Cyrus smiled, it seemed that whenever Cyrus put on his gear he got serious, shyness wouldn't be a problem whenever he wore it. The timer rang an hour later, they all sat down to eat lunch. Baki stopped Siteim from eating, "You are not allowed to eat." Baki smiled and Siteim got angry.
"Why?!?" She yelled.
"You were not able to take one of the bells in time."
"What do you mean?"
Baki smiled, "Because Aniki gave the second bell to Cyrus, you were singled out as the weakest and least worthy to receive an award, in this case, lunch." Siteim glared at Aniki.
"Hey I've done this before with my dad but he didn't say what would happen to the one who didn't get a bell!" Aniki said, "When I asked him he just laughed and went back inside!" Siteim pouted.
"Your father also got the bells from me, in an instant, but he didn't give his siblings any. He said he didn't believe in teamwork so I had to test Temari and Kankuro without Gaara." Baki laughed, "They got the bells but it was past noon." Aniki and Cyrus laughed with him and Siteim continued to pout. Then another Genin of Aniki's age group appeared to Baki, it was a boy named Yuri.
"Hi Yuri!" Siteim said, Yuri nodded and turned his attention to Baki, "Sechi-sensei requires your assistance sir!"
Mario11445: Thanks to -Sakura LOVE shadow- for these two names!
Baki nodded and got up, and dismissed the Genin. Aniki got up and stretched, Cyrus and Siteim did the same. Siteim left leaving Aniki and Cyrus alone. Aniki thought about something and said, "Hey Cyrus?" Cyrus looked at her, "Want to train together?" Cyrus smiled.
"Taijutsu or Ninjutsu?" he asked, Aniki smiled and kissed him.
"Weapons, your sword against my sand." Cyrus thought about it for awhile, then no
