Raven walked around the village with no clear objective.
"Hmm, I'm so bored, what to do, what to do."
"Excuse me Raven-san" strong confident voice spoke. Raven turned to see his former ANBU captain, Shingo Yamamoto.
"Senpai!" Raven's voice betrayed his feelings "I haven't seen you since we escorted those villagers."
Yamamoto's mind went back to four years ago. He and Raven were assigned to escort a group of peasants to the land of the waves, but they found out that the group was actually a royal procession and were ambushed by bounty hunters. They fought them and killed all seven of them. Along the way they were ambushed by multiple parties and managed to defeat all of them but not without losing the princess to sneak attack. After that Raven quit the ANBU and became a simple everyday ninja. He nodded and said,
"Yep, that was fun, anyway, I came to tell you something; Lady Tsunade said you are to take on a squad this year." Raven recoiled like he had been shot,
"What! Aw man! I hate kids! She knows that! What's in her head?"
Yamamoto shrugged, "I don't know she seems to think you'd make a good teacher, go figure."
Raven scowled, "Heaven help the students she assigns me"
Meile and Aniya were in a room with one door and no furniture.
"So we get our sensei today?" Meile chirped with her usual hyper attitude.
"Meile, you just took the beating of your life. How can you still be so hyper?"
"I don't know… I'm awesome?"
"I beg to differ" Aniya said, "You are about as awesome as a slug"
Meile looked stunned, "Rude! I oughta slug ya!" She said. Aniya's expression didn't change
"I would love to see you try, shorty"
Meile gasped, "I'm not short, I'm fun sized!"
"Well no one can argue that." an odd voice spoke, the girls turned to the door to see a teenager, about a year older than them standing in the door. He wore a large dark blue shirt and black pants. He had no shoes on, and wore black fingerless gloves; his arms were skinny, but well defined. His body was lean and strong. His hair was a messy smoky gray that hung in his brilliant blue eyes. On his back he carried a humongous, silver, broad-sword which was way too big for a normal person to carry. It was six feet long with a two foot handle and it was a foot wide. It was kept on his back by a wide leather strap around his shoulder.
"Hello, pleased to meet you my name is Hisaki Hoshigaki, what is yours" he spoke in a very polite flowing manner, as if he was royalty, but his voice was rough like a warrior's. "Ohh!" Meile stammered. Aniya regained her composure and spoke, "My name in Aniya Hatake and hers is Meile Uzumaki." Meile found her voice, "Yo, why you here dude?"
"Well, I'm a transfer shinobi from the Land of Waves and Lady Hokage assigned me to team 13."
"Is that so?"
Meile's jaw dropped. No! That voice!
"Hello, you ridiculous Genin, I feel sorry for you, I'm now your sensei. We are gonna have so much fun!" Raven's icy voice sent shivers down everyone's spine.
The newly appointed sensei of squad 13 chuckled to himself, well this is fortunate. I hate kids, but if I had to choose a squad, Aniya would be in it, she was, after all the top ninja of her year. Raven couldn't believe his luck, he had the top two shinobi in the new class, and he had the self proclaimed, 7th Ninja Swordsman of The Mist. The Ninja Swordsmen of The Mist were a group of swordsman from the land of waves who wielded giant swords in battle like it was nothing. Ever since Kakashi killed Zabuza, and Zabuza's blade was broken, there were only six, but this kid made a giant sword and called himself a Swordsman of The Mist. Raven wasn't impressed, but this kid had potential, he could feel it. Raven addressed his students
"This is a bittersweet surprise. I'm happy to have the top two ninja of this year's class, but it's disappointing to learn that this is the best we have to offer. It's kinda sad." Hisaki turned to Raven,
"Raven-sama? I will have the honor of being the student of the legendary Raven? This is huge! Raven-sensei it will be my honor to be your student sir!" Hisaki was giggling like a little school girl.
Raven smiled, "I like this guy!" he said loudly, "Meile, you should take a lesson from this one, he knows respect." Aniya looked at Raven with a blood chilling scowl,
"Please tell me this is someone's idea of a sick joke." Meile said, hyper attitude gone, "yeah, this must be your next idea for a little laugh. Please, let it be that."
Hisaki whirled on the two girls, "what are you talking about? This is the greatest thing that could've happened to us! Raven is a legend! He defeated the Fortress of Steel single-handedly! He is the best!"
"He's crazy! Insane! He beat me to a pulp for calling him dude!" Meile shouted. Raven just smiled and said,
"Like it or not, what's done is done, and I'm your teacher now, and I demand the respect that a Jonin deserves. And if I don't receive such respect, the whole team will pay the price, because this team is now family, and we move as one person, and if one part is weak and undisciplined, then the whole unit fails. I have never failed a mission, and I don't plan on failing my first one ever. Am I understood?"
"Yes sir!" they replied.
Raven's smile vanished, "I can't hear you" he said in a sing-song voice.
"YES SIR!" the students shouted.
"That's better, I want you all on the training field in one hour, oh and by the way, stragglers will be punished." And with that, he vanished.
