Days turned to weeks, weeks turned to months; months turned to years as Sasuke's term as Teacher aide. He was soon label a prodigy in the academy with his advance skills. Many times he was given opportunities to skip grades but he declined them all. He was adamant with staying with his class which had the students love him even more. He's reputation was ever popular as the boys envied him and the girls adored him. Unfortunately, his time in the academy soon came to an end. All the joy he experienced would be over as he prepared himself for war.…
A small girl roughly tumbled through the ground until she stopped. She placed both hands on the ground as she lifted herself to a standing position. She sprinted ahead towards boy in white with her right arm cocked. Her violet iris narrowed as they crossed with her opponent's ruby red iris. Her bandaged arm launched the strike for the target's head. The enemy easily sidestepped the punch with only losing a few strands of hair.
Instantly, the enemy's right knee bombarded with the female's stomach disfiguring it. Her eyes rolled to the back of her skull as spit hurled from her mouth. The knee returned to its neutral position leaving the girl floated in mid-air. The enemy fist his hand above his head before hammering into her back. The force of the strike bounced her off the ground into a punt which sent her sprawling on the ground.
As the enemy kicked away the small girl, another female blurred into existence beside his head in a devastating side kick. Moments from connecting with the kick, he vanished from his position; reappearing parallel towards her. His left hand discharged from his side aiming for her neck. She quickly tilted her neck as the offending hand brush past her. The boy rotated diagonally from his grabbed attempt into a drop heel kick. He united her head with his foot as they crashed to the ground. Jumping away from the dust he watched as she struggled to lifted her head from its indentation.
"Again," he command as his crimson eyes lazily washed over the two girls prone position. To the sideline another girl watched with unrestrained boredom. Her arms were crossed over her chest as her sandal foot tapped impatiently.
"Give us *cough* a moment *cough* teme!" coughed out the smaller of the two girls. Her right bang was sprawled on the earth as she laid on all fours. She kept hacking up miniscule amount of blood the same shade as her hair.
The other girl finally managed to pull her head out of the hole as she sat up. One hand rubbed her temple glowing with green chakra as she tried to make the spinning stop as it. Her hand accidentally knocked one of her short pink bangs from her forehead. "Almost ready Sasuke," she said.
"Sasuke-san, I truly don't get why you think these two can handle this level of training?" the girl on the sideline stated. She combed out a long strand of dark blue hair as her lilac eyes pierced the boy called Sasuke's crimson eyes.
Sasuke closed his eyes as he contemplated the Hyūga's words. "Again," he uttered as he snapped his eyes back open.
"You're such a slave driver, teme!" the red haired girl huffed as she stood back into forward stance preparing another assault.
"Aimi," the pink haired girl began. She had positioned herself into to fighting stance after she finished healing her concussion. "You know Sasuke is only making us better," she tried to reason.
"Fuck off, Haruno!" The girl named Aimi barked.
Sakura only sighed as they both charged once again at Sasuke.…Hyūga Hinata watched on as the two girls continued to get throttle by the Uchiha. She still wonder how she became invested in such a group. She grew up as the Hyūga heir. She was primed for success since the moment she was born. Here she was with an orphan, civilian kid, and an Uchiha! Where did it all turn around?
Still digesting her new life she took a closer look at her friends. Aimi changed her look from masculine to more feminine. She bet it was do to all those jokes about being a transvestite from Sasuke (At least she hoped it was jokes). Aimi grew out her hair and clipped the left side to the back of her hair leaving only her right bang to show in front. She seems to picked up a favor for orange as her new jacket and pants were dominated by that color. She leaves her no-sleeve jacket which stops shortly after her bust open covering a black tank top. The jacket also had the Uzumaki symbol on the back in the center. Her pants were mostly orange. The orange stopped at her knees and transform to blue ending at her calves. She topped it off with the ordinary blue sandals and lots of bandages. That was a story.
Flashback
Three years ago
The group of four were headed out of the academy after another day past.
Hinata tuned out Aimi as she went into another rant about once she was Hokage everybody would respect her. She tilted her head to Sasuke to surprisingly finding him frowning.
"Aimi," Sasuke interrupted.
"What is it Sasuke? I'm kind of getting to the best part," Aimi whined as she turned to look to her right.
"Is respect the only reason you want to become Hokage?" Hinata watched as Sasuke's eyes took a glossy look as if he was looking back. She wondered what goes on in that boy's head.
Aimi glared at Sasuke before speaking. "Of course. Respect means everything," she nodded.
Sasuke closed his eyes as for a while as the group continued their trek away from the academy. Sasuke snapped open suddenly as a grin appeared on his face. "Aimi, I have something that you might want to see. Come to my house at five," he began. He would of stopped but he felt a glare on the back of his head. Sweat dripped down the back of his head as he remembered they were not alone. "Hinata, Sakura-chan you're invited too," he said quickly to make up for his mistake.
"Good, I'll see you at five Uchiha-san," Hinata said as her turn came up.
…
Exactly at five o'clock, Hyūga Hinata showed up at the front door of Uchiha Sasuke. Once she entered, she noticed that Haruno arrived early as she was already situated in front of the television. To Hinata's ire, they waited another ten minutes before Aimi arrived. Many yells occupied the house as Sasuke reprimanded the tardy redhead.
Diving into the movie ten minutes late, Sasuke tried to explain the parts that they missed. Apparently it was about a civilian wanting to dominate the whole world. The character was crude, unintelligent, and loud from Hinata's perceptive. The way he handled things with his fist over his brain was an illogical course for Hyūga heiress to understand. After what felt like hours, it finally ended. Hinata looked over towards her companions to see if their reactions mirrored her bored one. Haruno was trembling at the brutality that the main character used as tears swelled in her eyes, Aimi closed her eyes with head down, and Sasuke looked satisfied.
"See Aimi, that's how delinquents try and earn respect. I bet that you..." Sasuke started to lecture.
"That was awesome!" Aimi screamed as she lifted her cheerful face. She rushed over to the only boy and grabbed his shoulders. Shaking him to and fro, she began talking. "Why didn't you show me this earlier Sas...wait, no," She stopped everything as sealed her eyes in concentration. "What was the word he use? Teme? Yeah! Teme!"
End Flashback
That was the last time she let Sasuke try to solve a problem. Aimi, loving the delinquent concept of "respect", she dedicated herself to it. She never left home without white bandages adoring both her hands and forearms, her right thigh, and a strip over her nose, but it wasn't perfect without the mouth to back it. Hinata knew Sasuke had planned a swear jar to make extra ryo off her. Even with her path to delinquency, she still yelled to anybody that listen that she was going to be the first female Hokage. Now the reason is because she was going to be the strongest shinobi in the village and she wants the hat.
Aimi crashed into the ground as Hinata's attention was turned to Haruno who jumped over Aimi. The pink haired one confused her. For a while all she wore were baggy clothes that cover all her skin, bangs that covered her forehead, and a shy demeanor. Hinata guess she was trying to shelter herself from the world. Then, one day she comes to class looking like that. Her hair was cut short as her bangs were divided to the right and left of her forehead allowing Hinata to finally see her green eyes. She sported a mesh long sleeve shirt with green cuffs that stop above her navel. She wore a black bra to keep her modest. Long pants that resemble what most Kohona Chūnin adore. Haruno customized her pants with addition of white knee pads and pouches wrapped around her ankle. She finished with it off with blue shinobi sandals. With the new look, came a new personality. She confronted Haruno on the subject once.

"Ore-sama allows you to challenge her!" Aimi boldly claimed pointing at the last Uchiha.
Everybody else sighed at the daily occurrence of Aimi challenging Sasuke to a duel. Wanting to get it over with, Sasuke left Hinata and Sakura to spar with Aimi.
Hinata glanced over to the other girl beside her. Haruno was definitely different from the first time they met. She was no longer the timid or hesitant girl that Sasuke introduced her to. Her skills also seem to have taken a change. Her chakra levels magically increased and it seem like she was barely trying to keep the grades that took all her effort to maintain. Hinata was curious.
"Haruno-san," Hinata initiated the conversation.
"Hmm?"
Hinata gathered her thoughts as she tried to get the wording right. "You're not as...pathetic as you use to be."
Haruno took the time to look over towards the Hyūga heiress. "Arigatou?" she said unsure if it was a compliment or insult.
Hearing the uncertainty in Haruno's voice, Hinata went to clarify her words. "What I mean is that your skill drastically change in the past few months. Your chakra levels are higher, your moves are more precise, and you take less time during written test. What with the sudden motivation?" she questioned.
The pink haired girl took one deep sigh before answering. "I just realized that if I wanted to stand by his side, I needed to be better."
End Flashback
Hinata never forgot that vague answer as Haruno's skills continued to increase as they approach graduation. Before, Hinata never saw her more than a charity case of the Uchiha. She was pathetically average in every sense of the word. She wasn't worth a second glance. Now she was something to be reckon with. She was stronger, faster, smarter; better. It sometimes scared Hinata at how quickly she changed. What worse is her dedication to Sasuke. It's like nothing he does is wrong in her eyes.
Speaking about Sasuke. She couldn't quite figure him out. Up into a week ago he was wearing blaring orange clothes, the same as, Aimi but sudden changed clothing. He now wore a high collared white sleeveless shirt with a red strip down the middle. Attached to his right shoulder was a red shoulder guard with a long black sleeve with the Uchiha symbol adored on it. He had black pants that were took to his ankles with white bandages to his sandals. On his back he carried a sheathed chokutōas he began taking up the practice of kenjutsu. His first day with his new clothes was an...interesting day.

"SASUKE-KUN!"
Hinata cringed at the level of the girls in the class. It seem it was going to be another day of useless screaming over Sasuke. Hinata didn't get what they see in him anyways. She prepared for Aimi to rant about how dumb the 'bitches' were in this class. The Hyūga heiress waited and waited. She became annoyed when her daily ritual was interrupted. She turned her gaze to hyperactive red head only to be shock at her expression. Aimi's mouth was slightly open, eyes wide as drool pooled at her lips. Confused, she turned to Haruno only to see the same expression from her. Becoming more frustrated, she turned to look at what they were staring at.
She barely heard the gasp leave her lips. Her eyes drank in the vision of perfection. The boys ebony eyes pierced hers as they met. She felt her cheeks heated as the boy walk towards her. She didn't dare tear her eyes away from this god.
"Hey Hinata," his voice was so smooth. That was the day Hinata first fainted.
End Flashback
Hinata still didn't talk about that day to anyone. She was a hyūga. They don't faint. It didn't help that it took a week until she got use to looking in the eyes. She blames puberty. The worst part was that Sasuke thought that all the girls were sick and then check their foreheads. Iruka-sensei had to ban Sasuke to a corner to prevent more problems. She swore that one of the academy students jumped the Uchiha heir to class. Sasuke was just like that. One moment he's a clueless idiot, the next he's a ruthless shinobi. Hinata thought he might be bipolar.
A sudden crash turned her attention back to the fight. In the center of the ring, Sasuke held Aimi and Haruno's fist in both of his open palm. She snorted at the stalemate. If it was her in the ring, she would have defeat those two already. Sasuke just not as good as her in taijutsu anymore. She dusted off her lavender and cream zip-up jacket with lavender cuffs. She lifted her jacket slightly to get to her shorts and mesh top. She let her jacket drop over and cover her shorts.
"That's it for today!" Iruka shouted to all the class. Hinata watched as her "friends" stop their spar. She let her legs take her over to them as she prepared for the rest of the day.
…
"Let go of me you punk bitch!" Aimi screamed this at the top of her lungs as Iruka dragged her back through the door. Aimi thought it was a good idea to skip class and paint the Hokage Monument.
Sasuke to a look at the bound Aimi as he began to reminisce. The parallels between Aimi and his old self were to close to ignore. Aimi might be more skilled than him at that age but the low I.Q. seem to transcend. She was dead last. Sasuke was more sure than ever that Uzumaki Aimi is Kurama's jinchūriki. The pop the question, who were her parents? Sasuke would have continued to dwell on that fact except Iruka interrupted his thoughts as he yelled at Aimi.
"Tomorrow is the ninja graduation exam. You have failed the last two times! This is no time to be causing trouble moron!" Iruka shouted as he pointed down to the delinquent.
"Piss off," was Aimi snide remark.
A tick mark appeared on Iruka's forehead as he went over her remark. "Time for a review test on Henge no Jutsu. Everybody line up!" he screeched.
"WHAT!" the class yelled as a whole.
"Transform perfectly into me!" the teacher said ignoring the class outburst.
Sasuke, being the student-aid, was exempt from transforming watch the class. He stared as the other students blame Aimi as she flipped them off. As Aimi approached Iruka, there was a feeling that he couldn't shake off.
"Transform!" Aimi shouted. A cloud of smoke obscured everybody view. When the smoke clear, Iruka was not looking at a reflection of himself. In Aimi spot stood older curvaceous version of herself. The only problem was she wasn't wearing any clothes. Iruka eyes widening before he shot off from a nosebleed.
Sasuke surprised that Aimi would think of such a technique took another look. Wait...doesn't she look like...Sasuke began before his eyes widened. He turned a shade of green before he vomit on the ground behind him. Many of the female classmate hurried over to check to see if their precious Sasuke-kun was hurt.
Laughter filled the classroom as Aimi dispelled her Henge. "How you like that? I call it Oiroke no Jutsu," she said quite proud of herself.
Quickly, Iruka recovered as he paper stuffed up his nose. "You dumbass! Don't invent stupid skills!" he yelled.
Aimi lazily looked at him as she picked out her ear before walking away. "Worked on your dumb ass Ero-Iruka," Aimi muttered as she walked back to her seat. When Aimi tried to return to her seat a sea of girls stood in her way. "Stupid Bimbos! Move!" she yelled as she pushed her way through the herd as she made it to her desk. Unfortunately for her, somebody decided to her seat beside Sasuke.
Ino continued to rub the back of Sasuke as he dry heaved for a bit. She managed to be the first one to arrive and claim the empty seat. She would have continued to pamper her Sasuke-kun is it wasn't for that idiot.
"Blonde Bimbo out of ore-sama's seat," Aimi told Ino as she neared.
Ino's eyebrow rose in irritation before she confronted Aimi. "What was that dead last?"
"Dead last? I kick your scrawny ass in taijutsu all the time," Aimi retaliated.
"At least I'm not dumb as a doorknob."
"At least I'm not a skinny barbie trying to get into teme's pants."
"Don't call Sasuke-kun that!"
"Make me bitch!"
Their foreheads touched as they both tried to intensify their glare. Before the two could get physical, Iruka interrupted telling everybody to take their seats. The two girls took one more glance at each other before they left to their respect seat.
Sasuke's dry heaving finally stopped as he returned to classroom. "Aimi," he said a serious tone. Aimi stopped planning the death of Ino as she turned to him. "Never use that jutsu again."
"But..." Aimi started.
"NEVER," Sasuke's voice froze over as Aimi swore the temperature dropped.
"Okay," Aimi said meekly. Sasuke quickly turned back to a sunny demeanor as he turned his head back to the front of the class. Aimi turned her head as she leaned to the right. "I think you're right about him being bipolar," she whispered into Hinata's ear.
…
The bell rang as class was ended for the day. Students quickly took off to prepare for their graduation exam tomorrow. Hinata left Aimi, Sakura, and Sasuke as she said she needed to meet up with her father this afternoon. The three said their goodbye as they head off to Ichiraku. They wanted to get a meal together before Aimi was sent to her punishment.
"Stupid blonde bimbo call ore-sama stupid," Aimi vented as the three set a steady pace.
"You do know that you failed twice already," Sakura said as she put her two cents.
"Shut it Haruno," Aimi demanded.
Sakura ignored the threat as she continued to talk. "It's true. We all know that you're barely going to pass the written portion of the test and it so happens that this year is on the Bunshin no jutsu," Sakura stated. She saw the notes Iruka had as she walked in the room today.
Aimi paled for a moment as she remember her use of the jutsu. As of right now she could do the jutsu about fifty-fifty. So it all might come down to luck. "Don't worry, I'll pass," she tried to reassure herself.
"Maybe," Sakura started. "but you should study up. You're not a genius like Hinata, Sasuke or me."
Aimi looked offended at the words Sakura told her. "I don't need to be a genius or study for this shit. Right teme?"
Sasuke sighed as he went over what he wanted to say in his head. He knew it would be tough for her to hear but if she is anything like twelve year old Naruto, she needed to hear this. "Sakura right you need to study," he said.
Aimi looked broken as she heard the words from Sasuke. Tears swelled in her eyes as she went over the words again. "You know what? Screw you and your pink haired hoe! I'll show you I don't need to be a genius to pass!" Aimi screeched as she ran away.
"Aimi!" Sasuke shouted trying to gain her attention. He sighed as he saw her disappear from sight. He turned his over towards the cause of this problem.
Sakura blinked as Sasuke's eyes bored into hers. "So are we still going to Ichiraku?"
…
Aimi woke up in a haze as she prepared for the graduation test. The dinner with Iruka help calm her a little but she still heard the words that Sakura and Sasuke said to her as she wrapped her bandages around her arms. Whatever. She show those two who's a genius. She can't wait to look at those two faces as she shoved her Hitai-ate into their faces.
When she arrived at the classroom, she noticed her three genius friends hanging out without a care in the world. It pissed her off. She stormed her way down the classroom as she sat herself down in a different sit. She ignored the screeching of the girls that a seat was open beside Sasuke. She needed to prepare herself for the upcoming exam. She only had to wait a few moments before Iruka and Mizuki entered the classroom. Aimi zoned out when Iruka began to drone on about conduct and what not of taking the test. She had almost passed out when a test was slammed down on her desk.
She glanced at the test before her eyes widen. She thought that they gave the same written exam every year. That what happened the past two time. She barely recognized some of these questions. Maybe she should've studied.
…
Aimi was sweating bullets as she came back from lunch. She knew that she didn't do well on the written exam and all her hope was on a jutsu she could do only half the time. She was screwed. Iruka went to the front of the room announcing that they would be taking the bunshin no jutsu in the next room. Aimi watched on as students went in and came out. So far every student that went in came out with shiny new hitai-ate. Finally, her name was called.
Deep breath Aimi you got thisshe told herself as she entered through the door. She stared at Iruka and Mizuki as they sat behind a desk. She could see the shiny new hitai-ate ready for her to wear. Here I go.
"Bunshin no jutsu!"
A poof of smoke obscured the whole room.
…
Kohohagakure is a pretty quiet place.
"FUCK YEAH!"
Just not today.
…
Aimi was ecstatic. She passed, she finally passed. She was a ninja; one step closer to becoming Hokage. She hurried to find Sasuke so she could shove it down his throat. Tell her to study. She the great Uzumaki Aimi. Before she could find the prick, Mizuki stood before her.
"Hey Aimi, do you want a chance at extra credit?"
…
Sasuke panted slightly after the finished his new jutsu. It took five years to complete but he needed it. His past fighting experience as Sasuke or Naruto revolved around a similar jutsu. He already had the perfect name for it, Kurama's mune. Now all he needed to do was...
A ninja jumped over his compound heading in random direction. It perked Sasuke's curiosity as he tailed the ninja. It was an average Kohona chūnin hopping from rooftop to rooftop in a frantic pace. Soon another chūnin approached the shinobi as they began to talk.
"Have you found her?" the newest chūnin spoke. The other ninja gave shake of the head as the continued their pace. "Come on we need to find the forbidden scroll."
Sasuke stopped tailling them after he heard that. The forbidden scroll is missing. The only time that happen in my timeline was...Sasuke began before a realization hit him. Failing the exam, Mizuki telling him a secret, stealing the forbidden scroll; learning he was the Kyūbi jinchūriki. He needed to find Aimi.
…
Aimi could still feel the adrenaline pumping through her veins. Mizuki told her about an A-rank mission. Mizuki soon started saying Sasuke's name which made her frown until he finished. The mission was so tough that Academy Prodigy couldn't finish it. She knew she found a way to finally outdo Sasuke.
The mission was fairly simple. She needed to find a scroll from the Hokage Mansion and learn a jutsu from it. She was able to sneak in with no problems until the Hokage found her. She panicked at first from being caught. Testing her newest jutsu, she found out that the Hokage was also a pervert like Iruka. Next she going to find out that Sasuke's one too. After she eliminated the problem, she quickly found said scroll. Hiding in the forest, she finally had time to look at the scroll.
"Let's see...the first skill is...Kage Bunshin? What the hell? Why does it start with the one I'm bad at?" Aimi grumbled as she set her mind to the task.
…
Sasuke ran through the surrounding forest. He tried to tap into the memory of where he hid the time he stole the scroll. He already used Tajū Kage Bunshin to scour most of the forest. As he was about to change direction, he felt a chakra spike. He hurried over towards it to find Aimi in front of Mizuki.
She slammed the scroll down beside her and spoke with a deadly voice to Mizuki, "Touch Iruka sensei and I'll kill you."
"Aimi," Iruka breathed out.
Rubbing his jaw Mizuki stood up. "Finding you won't be hard now since you're here. So tell me, how do you expect to kill me little girl." His grin was confident as he stood there and waited.
Aimi held her hands in a cross sign as she stared at her former mentor. "A bastard like you won't take ore-sama more than ten seconds."
"Then do it, demon fox!" Mizuki scream with confidence.
"Kage bunshin no jutsu!" Soon the clearing was filled with hundreds of Aimis staring down at the traitor.
Sasuke smirked from his hiding spot as he watched the shadow clones merged onto Mizuki. The beating that ensure will probably not be forgotten by the traitor anytime soon. The Uchiha heir left the clearing sure that Aimi could handle the rest. He made it a couple hundred of meters before yells broke through his hearing.
That's Aimi's voicehe thought in shock. With a quick shunshin, he returned to the clearing. He had to do a double-take at what he saw. Aimi's shadow clones disappeared one by one as a bipedal tiger man stood in the midst of it. Soon only Aimi was left as all her shadow clones were defeated.
"Nice try Kyūbi, but your power pales in comparison to Orochimaru's," the human tiger gloated. He flexed his muscles to emphasize the point.
Aimi stood wide eyed at the display of power shown. Her legs began to shake as she didn't know what else to do.
"Too scared to move...then I'll come to you," he said. Blurring from view, he reappeared in front of the red head. He sent his fist crashing down on Aimi's cheek launching her through the forest. He blurred again ready to follow up on the attack.
Suddenly, a thousand birds began to chirp. A blue lightning bolt cut through the air and slammed into the reemerging Tiger man's shoulder.
The girl was caught by a raven haired boy. Aimi looked up as her conscious began to fade. She was able to make out two crimson eyes staring down at her. "Sa-Sasuke," she muttered before she passed out.
Sasuke took his eyes off his friend as he gazed at the new Mizuki. Mizuki grabbed the Chidori Eisō with his right hand. He ripped it from his shoulder as it disappeared.
"Uchiha Sasuke...guess you can't let one of your friends get injured," he began as he stared up towards the branch Sasuke caught Aimi in. "Who's your little friend who cast the raiton jutsu?" He was met by more silence. "Whatever. I'll just kill them after I kill you and that Kyūbi brat," he taunted.
The dimension-hopper gentle placed Aimi on the branch before looking down a Mizuki. His right hand was holding his chokutō. "For breaking the Sandaime's law, I hereby arrest you," he said.
Iruka from his down position gasped at what Sasuke said. He knew about the Kyūbi.
"Bring it on Uchiha brat!" Mizuki shouted. After that was said the two launched themselves at each other. They met in the middle as Sasuke's blade and Mizuki claws clashed. They bounced away as the made several more clashings through the forest. Sasuke appeared in the middle of the clearing as he moved his head trying to track Mizuki.
Mizuki suddenly appeared before Sasuke with his fist cocked back. "Die!" He screamed as he aimed for Sasuke's heart. The punch hit air as Sasuke sidestepped it as his Sharingan lazily predicted it movements. Mizuki went into a fury as he launched punch after punch trying to hit the Uchiha heir. "Stop dodging brat!"
Sasuke continued to backpedal until he backed up into a tree. Seeing that Sasuke had nowhere to move, Mizuki launched one last punch at his head. The punch connected only to go through Sasuke. Mizuki's eyes widen in surprise as Sasuke's body began to disperse in flames. The last Mizuki saw of Sasuke was his ever present smirk. Soon the world around him burst into flames as the scenery melted to black. Finally, Mizuki was left in a world of black. Desperately, he turned every direction looking for a way out. The floor suddenly gave out as he began to fall. As he fell, he flipped his body so it was facing the ground. Then, he stared into those eyes, blood red eyes with slitted pupils. The scream die in his throat.
…
Sasuke jumped off the branch carrying Aimi. He made his way towards Iruka before placing her down beside him. He gave his sensei a smile before talking. "Are you alright Iruka-sensei?" he asked.
Iruka was still in shock as he watched Mizuki scream for no apparent reason. "Wh-what did you do to Mizuki?"
Sasuke tilted his head in that direction before answering. "Genjutsu. He won't be going anywhere anytime soon," he stated before he jumped to a tree. "Well, I better get going. Don't want to answer any questions now."
"Sasuke," Iruka said stopping said boy in his tracks. "What...how...why?" There was too many question that he had for the Uchiha. Who was Sasuke Uchiha?
Sasuke let a smile graced his face as he looked at the first person to recognize him. "Keep Aimi safe. She trusts you. Just like me," he said the last sentence to himself as he hopped away.
Iruka slumped as he finally let what happen today take a toll on his body. He turned his head to looked down to Aimi's sleeping face. He saw so much of that child in him when he was younger, but there was one different. She was able to make a good friend.
…
Class started the same way as always. Students chatted loudly waited for the day to begin. They were a little bit more anxious than other day as today will be their first official day as shinobis. This was how the class was as Aimi entered through the door.
She quickly went to Sasuke's desk as the class soon took notice. Aimi jumped on top of Sasuke's desk and crouched down, sticking her face in front of his.
"You see this," Aimi said as she pointed to her hitai-ate tied around her forehead. Sasuke gave a slight nod as he was confused as where this was going. "Taking that genius shit and shove it up your ass!" she exclaimed.
"Aimi," Sakura started as she placed her hands on the desk and lifted herself up to face the girl. "What are you doing?"
She never kept her eyes out of Sasuke, staring at his dark obsidian ones as she spoke, "This might have started with you, pinky, but this is between me and Sasuke." She stared right into his eyes as Sasuke stared right back.
"Aimi, I've never said you had to be a genius," Sasuke said.
"Umm…" Aimi brain replayed their encounter as she realized that what he said was true. She was never called brilliant.
A small sweat drop appeared on Sasuke's face as he had to wonder for a moment at Aimi. Something felt a familiar though as he stared at Aimi and the closeness she was, a sort of de ja vu as this scene felt familiar somehow…then a student sat behind Ami as his friend pointed to them and he realized a little too late.
"Don't mo…." Sasuke started to rise but didn't finish when...
"Huh," the student turned around and his elbow bumped into Aimi's back. She fell forward, her eyes surprised at the tap until her mouth met Sasuke's and…
They both stared wide eyed at each other, their faces as red as it could be, no one moved, no sound could be heard, as the class stood still and stared at the site. Aimi and Sasuke had just locked lips.
Her warm lips with his, he couldn't help but feel something nice about them as they slowly pulled apart. Their eyes watched each other, Aimi's eyes suddenly became soft as they shared a moment together before they turned away, blushing madly, trying to figure out what to do next.
Several girls looked at the scene, staring with wide eyes and mouths open until they started to comprehend what exactly just happened. "S…Sh..She…took his first kiss." The girls gasped, one collapsed and was carried away by the others.
Aimi started awkwardly, the blush never leaving her face or the taste of his lips that continued to linger, "S-Sasuke…" she didn't know what to say, shocked as everyone else with her mind frozen.
Sasuke's blush was just as apparent but his thoughts went a different way. Who never kissed a girl now Kurama he gloated to himself.
It was quiet as Iruka walked in; bandages covered his body as he mostly limped instead of walked. He looked at the quiet class in confusion. What happened? he thought.
"Morning class?" Iruka spoke as the whole class finally spotted him before letting out a gasp.
"Sensei, what happened?" one of the students asked.
"It's nothing, don't worry," He laughed it off, "But what happened here?" he asked as the students didn't answer, instead they seemed to look at two individuals. Aimi and Sasuke refused to look at him in the eyes as Iruka came to several conclusions but settled with Are they fighting with each other, again?The small blushes on their cheeks said otherwise…
"Alright class, congratulations on graduating. You will be divided into teams of three. I had a speech for you but I know you would rather not hear it but I'll say this; you are now ninjas of Hidden Leaf village, be proud of this status and be proud as you serve our Hokage as I am proud of each and every one of you. There may be a time when you would need to talk to someone, your Jōnin-sensei will guide you and teach you but remember, you were my students first and my door will always be open to you."
The class looked at him with warmth as they were practically glowing, Iruka had taught them throughout their lives, he had been strict, fair, and sometimes hard on them, but he was also funny, kind, and caring. He smiled at them with pride as he begun. "So now, Team 1 is…"
Iruka had called each student to enter a specific team. Students either rejoiced for their teams or sighed in gloom. When team 7 was finally called, Sasuke peered up in anticipation.
"Team 7…Uzumaki Aimi,"
Aimi looked up.
"Haruno Sakura,"
They looked at each other then both huffed as they still remember the encounter yesterday.
"And…"
Sasuke stared intensely at Iruka.
"Uchiha, Sasuke."
Several things happened at once…the windows broke as a kunai attached to paper came crashing through, smoke obscured Iruka, and most the class shouted. When the smoke dispersed, in front of Iruka stood A woman wearing a tan overcoat,completewith a fitted mesh body suitthat stretches from her neck down to her thighs. She wears a dark orange mini-skirt, as well as a forehead protector, a small pendant that looks like a snake fang on a thick cord and shin guards. Behind her was sign saying Super Sexy Jōnin Insturctor of Team 7 Hatake Anko.
"Alright Team 7 with me!" she smiled as grin adore her face.
