Let me tell you this; living in this world was far from fun.
My body always ached be because of my chakra system growing, I was too small to be anywhere I wanted to be...and last...
This world was dangerous.
There was no easy way out. I had to train to get stronger. The weak just die whilst the strong survive. Don't get me wrong, I would love to work for what I want.
But this is not the average 'I'm going to be strong and defeat all enemies of Konoha!'
It would be amazing I could really do that. But just like everyone else, I'm human.
Well, enough with my ranting.
I was now eight, and Zu wanted me to see some other villages. The Hokage was afraid of something when Zu asked him, I could see it in his eyes.
Zu told me it was more of an award for graduating the Pre-Academy. I wanted to see something else than Konoha too.
My knowledge about Naruto is slowly slipping away from me, but I try to remember.
But, as I was saying earlier, Zu wanted me to see other villages. The Hokage was pretty okay with it once Zu begged the crap outta him.
So here we are, heading to our fellow village; Suna. Zu was carrying me on his back as he jumped through the thick trees. I held on to him tightly as he leaped.
He landed gracefully, seeing the yellow sand graced the whole land. He smiled.
"This is Suna, Uzumaki-san." He commented.
"It's hot." I replied, but in the back of my mind it was screaming duh, it's a desert.
"Well, yes. How about we start your lesson?" He offered.
I groaned loudly; I forgot to mention that in order to take me on this trip, the Hokage ordered that I have to learn something when I came back.
He started to walk into the village, walking into a small shop that had a sign that said "Poisons"
The shop smelt of plants.
"Let's test your knowledge." He said.
"What's this poison do?" He asked, pointing to a purple substance.
::It Paralyze's the body whilst slowly burning your insides, having three days to live.::
"Uh," Something in the back of my head saying the answer loud and clearly.
Zu sighed, "How about this one?" He asked, this time the substance green.
::Something that heals small scars; or a cold or fever. It can be used as medicine or for a medicine for medic ninja.::
That time, a sharp pain shot through my head.
"Zu-Zu, can we go out for some fresh air?" I asked.
"Sure..." He said, his voice sounding concerned.
We went out and he sighed deeply.
"Are you okay Uzumaki?" He asked.
"Yeah, why wouldn't I be?" I asked back.
"Your heart...condition." He dug into his pocket and pulled out a mini jar of pills.
"You may have headaches and may faint whilst takin these; but it keeps you alive."
I had totally forgotten I was ill...i was sick.
I was weak and fragile.
I felt my kiddy emotions kick in as I felt my eyes getting damp.
"Don't cry!" He panicked.
I turned around, trying to contain my sniffing.
That'd when I saw her. But it couldn't be her! There was no way.
"Julia..." The girl must've heard me because her eyes snapped up at me before her nose wrinkled in disgust.
"C'mon, we should be heading to our inn." Zu said, noticing my shocked face.
"Julia!" This time I screamed and as I did that, the string of pain shot threw my head once more.
I was now crying, my head hurting too much.
The child's mother frowned, hugging the child near to her.
Zu must've panicked because he raised his hand before giving me a good whack on the back of my neck.
Blackness drowned me but my thoughts were un wavered. Not even me slipping into the darkness help me get away from what I just saw. Nothing in fact.
::Insolent child,:: a deep roaring voice boomed in the back of my head.
::Why must you but so idiotic? You should have been killed, your no use to the ninja world.::
The voice was surely creeping me out.
::But you will die sooner than you think.::
（≧∇≦）（≧∇≦）（≧∇≦）（≧∇≦）
Something cold pressed against my forehead. I cracked open my eyes to see Zu hovering over me with a serious face. Which was scary because when ever Zu is serious...
Shit gets real.
"Naomi."
Which made the matter worst; is that He used my name, my first name. Once again I felt like crying, it was too intense for my new body.
"Did you know that girl?"
I swallowed.
"I saw her in my dream," it wasn't a full lie so cut me some slack.
Zu sighed deeply.
"It's okay to have those feelings..." Zu blushed crimson red.
I felt myself sweat drop.
"Excuse me?" I asked.
"It's okay to have liking to the same gender..." He pressed on.
This time I tic marked.
"Are you saying that I'm gay?" I asked, my face feeling hot.
Zu shrugged and I had the urge to slap him.
"Zu...how would you like it if I told a certain person about your obsession about them..." I grinned evilly.
Wow. I can't believe he turned to serious into assuming I'm gay.
Wow, just wow. Like seriously, dude. I'm eight.
"This trip was a bad idea. I wanna go home Zu-Zu."
"Good because tomorrow is your first day of the Academy." Zu said.
At the mention of that, I perked up and almost screamed of joy.
（≧∇≦）（≧∇≦）（≧∇≦）（≧∇≦）
I never had forgotten that day. It was of course unforgettable.
But I try to forget it because Zu thinks I'm gay; an eight year old gay. Jesus.
I shuffle my feet with the dirt, a nervous habit I began to pick up.
The doors of the Acedemy swung wide open and children filled the school up quickly.
Zu gave a pat on my shoulder as he gently gave me a nice shove.
I sucked in a breath as I walked in.
"Woah,"
