Hi! I know that the chapters are short, but I can't help it! I just can't think…the chapters later on might be longer. By the way… WHY ISN'T ANYONE GIVING ME ANY ADVICE? Well…hope you enjoy this chapter…

The bell rang as Koto reached the school.

'Well, at least I'm not late…' thought Koto with a sigh of relief.

If you're late at Kato High, you get a detention and you have to clean desks, tables, floors, and do some other stuff that janitors usually have to do.

Koto wasn't all that lucky, being a 10 year old at a high school is one of the worst things. You can get trampled in the halls, and other students envy you for being smarter than they are. (Kotomaru's IQ is 200, which is higher than most people. The average IQ is around 100 or more.)

When he reached his classroom, everyone was talking about the same topic. It was about the new manga book that got released. It had something to do with history kind of, maybe it's about that old legend or something, all he knew was that it had to do with the legend.

As he walked inside, everyone went silent, soon people were gasping. People started to stare at him and then look back at something that was in their hands.

'What in the world are they looking at?' thought Koto as people started to talk in quiet voices.

"Hey, Koto-kun! Come over here!" called his classmate, Kimiko.

Obediently, Koto started to walk over to the group that surrounded Kimiko. Everyone that was there looked at Koto and then back at the book that was in Kimiko's hand, by the looks of it, it was a copy of the new manga book.

"Hey, Koto-kun?" asked Kimiko.

"…."

"Why is there a picture of you on the cover?"

"NANI!" he grabbed the book out of her hands. He stared at the cover, there was a picture of him was on the cover. The only thing was that he was wearing an orange jumpsuit. He looked up, everyone was staring at him, and then he looked back at the cover. The title read Naruto.

'Why does that sound so familiar?' thought Koto. Suddenly, without thinking, he opened the book. Images started to flash through his head, as he flipped through the book, more images flashed through his head, but when he reached one part of the book, he stopped.

He gave the book back and walked away.

'Why did that happen?' he kept asking, but there was no answer. Everyone that was in the room kept talking quietly until the teacher came in.

He couldn't concentrate for the whole day. What happened that morning kept bothering him, he tried to find the answer, but there wasn't one.

'Maybe if I get a copy of it, I'll be able to figure it out,' was the only thing that he could think of. After school ended, he headed towards the closest book store he could think of.

The cold January wind blew against him, but it didn't bother him, the only thing he wanted was to get a copy of that book.

Sorry that this chapter is short, but it's the only thing that I could think of. I've still got school by the way, so I won't be able to think that well...Review! AND GIVE ME SUGGESTIONS OR IDEAS! Flames are welcomed.
