The Plan for Hinata Hyuga
A/N: If you were disappointed with the prologue, I'm sorry. It was truly terrible, boring, uneventful and dreadful. But it was necessary to start up the storyline. Oh, and if you wish for more action, here it is.
Disclaimer: Still do not own it, told you.

Chapter Two: The Graduation
It was finally the day when I could graduate if I passed. I had been wondering what the requirements would be, maybe it would be the bell test, a mass version. Oh well, I will pass anyways.
I never had failed anything in my life, except genjutsu, it was so boring. Kind of like this city. Total boredom, and I am telling the truth. Their was never any visitors, we never got to see other ninjas from other cities.
That was the downside of being born and raised in a city that hovers about five-hundred feet off of the ground due to some weird jutsu the first Raikage used to seal the village off from the warring lands. We had never even received any communication from other villages anymore.
This was why the rumor had been going around town that if you graduated today, you could finally leave this boring village. The jounin refused to confirm anything, and the chuunin fled from the very sight of me.
That scare factor came from the fact my name was Kail Kazerai, or Kail of the Lightning Wind, as well as from the fact I had annoyed the hell out of all of my teachers. They complained that I was too "argument-minded" and that I always had to ignore the teachers. That was mostly because I knew all of the stuff they were teaching, and they sounded so boring and bland. I swear that the first day at the academy, I attempted CPR on a fourty-five year old teacher because her voice sounded like she was dieing.
See, the reason I knew what they had to teach was due to the fact that my mother was a jounin and my father was the 3rd Raikage. They taught me all that they knew by the age of ten, and that was because I learned fast. I knew about sixty-three ways to kill someone silently while they slept by the age of nine.
Anyways, as I was saying before I ranted on there, today was to be the day I could supposedly leave this village behind me. I could take care of myself need I have to leave, after all, my parents died about two years ago. Now I was twelve and a half, and had enough street smarts to take down almost any threat I could encounter, except genjutsu, again. I hate genjutsu, as my mother stated it, "it requires absolute and total focus of the mind to initiate a genjutsu, and enough power to hold it in place for a predetermined amount of time..." Blah, blah blah, blah. Genjutsu is totally useless, I mean sure you can conjure an illusion of a floating cow, whoopdy freakin' doo.
My extreme focus was a balance between ninjutsu and taijutsu. My ninjutsu was totally wind oriented, and that helped with my evade and counter strategy. The taijutsu was mostly just to strike vital points with enough force to insert chakra into the opponent's body, and then to forcefully rip it out. It sounded and looked painful, and it allowed a nice strategy. The strategy was to be able to control their body with wind chakra.
Once again, I cannot and will not be able to wait for the graduation test! "Academy, here I come! I am going to graduate, and become the next shinobi to get the hell out of here!" I yelled to no one in particular, but oh it is so much fun to cause public disturbance. With that, I run as fast as I could towards the academy gates.
-Scene Change-
I had finally got here, and apparently I was not the only one who decided to come early to find out what the test was. There was a group of about twenty students surrounding the main office, demanding to know the test's purpose and what it was going to be.
"Will everyone please calm down, you will see the test in about an hour? SILENCE!" Yelled a female chuunin who had apparently had enough of the whining and pleading of the students. The command actually worked though, causing everyone of the students to be quiet.
"Do I have to wait the full hour, it is so boring out here? Does anyone wish to spar with me?" I asked impatiently, because we all knew that there was never anything to do in this town.
"I will accept your challenge Kail." I looked up to see who had accepted and surprisingly it was one of the chuunin, however it was that woman who yelled earlier.
"Okay, I did not expect that." With that we set up an area for a spar.
-Scene Change-
"Okay, Kail. No lethal attacks, no draining of chakra, and no... wait what was the other one?"
"Genjutsu, I believe." I responded to the list of banned actions.
"Whatever, begin!" With that, she formed a handsign with one hand and in a cloud of smoke, she disappeared.
I had seen this jutsu before, she would probably reappear behind me and strike at a vital point near my neck. I was apparently correct, for I turned around and she was right there with her hands in a taijutsu position, going for my neck.
"Amateur skill at best. Wind Style: Tempest of Gales." I muttered as I amassed a blast of chakra that I then released, utilizing it as a tornado to deflect her attacks.
"Water Style: Evaporation of a Soul." She said as she melted away into a mist of water. This was a new attack for me atleast.
I looked around, trying to sense a chakra signal or anything I could use to locate her, yet it was not working.
Then she spoke, "This jutsu allows the user to evaporate into mist, and can be used to hide scent, chakra, or anything else a common ninja can use to track the user. It is near impossible to track the user after this, good luck." Then a strike across my face drew me back to the battle.
"Wind Style: Sense of the Winds!" I yelled this out, causing a jutsu to envelope my senses. This jutsu enabled me to sense any movement on the winds. "Found you." I said as I struck an area in the mist, causing a disturbance in the water jutsu.
"Water Style: Downpour of Entrapment!" A wave of water splashed down on me, yet the constant drench of water disabled any of my movement.
I had to think fast, the water was closing in and I was running out of air. "Wow, why didn't I think of this before, Replacement jutsu!" I made a small handsign and switched my place with a bush. The bush was also right behind her so I quickly formed a blade of chakra on my fist and held it at her throat.
"Game over, I believe." I said, stating the obvious.
"Good job kid. You passed the graduation test." Well that was totally unexpected. I stood there in shock for about three minutes, until she quickly hit me in the face with a ball of water.
"You. Have. Got. To. Be. Kidding. Me. That was the test that I had been anticipating for the past six and a half days? And I passed?" She nodded.
"Yes, that was the test. All the other kids will be tested in atleast the next hour, then we will determine the winners, and the losers. The winners get to choose something, I just happened to forget due to the exciting and surprisingly challenging battle that we just took part in. Your pretty skilled, kid." She spoke this and then started to walk away.
"My name is Kail remember, lady? Hey, person I am talking to you, what is the choice? I know you know what it is that I do not know!" That last comment made her turn her head.
"What... that made nearly no sense in the slightest, kid. And yes, I do know what it is, it is a surprise." She said this, and I swear I could have heard an evil voice laughing in the 'mwahahaha' sense.
Oh well, at least in an hour I get to report to the jounin council. "Hurray, GRADUATION!" This outburst was promptly followed by a local resident yelling at me saying "Shut up you stupid ninja wannabe!"
-Scene Change-
It was finally time to report to the jounin. The place had about seventy ninja kids waiting to be asked the question. However, the next statement would shorten the amount to about half.
"I like pie!" Okay, maybe the next statement will.
"Will the people who actually won their battle, and did not cheat or flee, please stand up. Oh, and by the way, if you are lying you will have to fight all of us jounin." Stated one of the jounin who stood up at the front of the room.
About sixteen of us stood up out of the previous seventy students.
"Wow, you guys really aren't good are you?" Said one of the standing shinobi.
"Okay, you sit down now for that statement." The jounin pointed at the kid who just spoke.
The remaining fifteen of us were called up one by one, with our names being read up off of a list of the victors.
"Kazerai, Kail, please follow me through this door." I saw the voice, it was the chuunin lady I fought earlier.
"Okay, this hopefully will not kill me." I stood up and followed.
-Scene Change-
We walked down through about six hallways, and on the way I saw the other victors talking with chuunin, jounin, random advisers, and even their guardians or parents.
"The room is in here, kid." She pointed at a door and went straight on and opened it. Yet she did not walk in. "Lady's first." She pointed at me.
"I hate you so much right now." I walked on through with her snickering behind my back.
"Welcome, Kail, or should I call you Kazerai?" I searched for the mysterious voice, yet found no one speaking the words. A blast of smoke revealed an elderly man, around the age of seventy.
"I am Kail Kazerai, but call me Kail." I had always detested my last name, for it linked me with those forgotten memories I hated so much.
"So, you know the question. Will you stay here in the village, or will you leave and be transferred to another village and their ninjas?" This was not the hardest question I had been asked. I like new places and I could leave this accursed village, finally I am free.
"I will leav..." I was sadly interrupted as an advisor came in.
"I must tell Kail here about the benefits and losses in leaving the village." And thus the advisor spoke on for about fifteen minutes, now I understood why the others looked like they were dying.
"I will leave, I don't care about the village's supposed benefits. It is boring." I spoke, cutting off the speech of death given by the oblivious advisor.
"So you wish to leave? Do you happen to have a village in mind sir?" The elder asked.
"Konohagakure, the Village Hidden in the Leaves."
DUN DUN DUN DUUUUUUUN!
