And The devil Marches On….
Chapter 2
Annoying older brothers and the King of Youth!
(Naruto POV)
Last time on 'ATdMO' (And The devil Marches On)
"Okay well if you go through that hallway way right next to the principle's office, there should be a door that says 'Guidance counselor: Gai of youth'… he should be able to help you in getting your schedule. If you have any other question don't hesitate to ask!" Shizune chirped and then turned in her chair to peer into her computer, a serious expression on her face.
I rolled my eyes then shook my head impatiently. I turned and stalked off to where Shizune had pointed and walked down the small hall. There was a large painted picture at the very end of the hall. I stopped to look at it for a second. The person painted in the picture had spiky blonde hair, like mine but it was longer, and deep blue eyes, like mine only his showed a lot of kindness and full of wisdom. The man was smiling broadly, and was holding up a peace sign. I couldn't shake off the feeling that I knew him from somewhere… But I shrugged and looked around curiously. I finally spotted the door I was looking for on my left.
I slowly reached forward and reluctantly turned the door knob. I gulped nervously before pushing the door open silently…
I slipped my head inside the room and gently scraped my knuckled along the door to see if anyone was in the large room.
"Come in." I heard a deep voice say. I opened the door fully and looked around, but I couldn't see anyone. The door squeaked loudly as it closed by it's self. I spun around and watched as my only exit closed, I tried to open the door but it wouldn't budge. To say that I was freaked out would be an understatement.
"Well well. Who do we have here?" The deep voice spoke again. I spun around and pressed myself against the door as I looked around for the source of the voice.
I finally noticed a large spinney chair near the desk on the other end of the room. The back of the chair was really large, it almost reached the ceiling, and I noticed that I could see two elbows resting on the arms of the chair.
"H-hello?" I said softly. The chair twirled around to reveal a large, man. He was wearing a long brown trench coat, a light brown hat, black army boots, and black sunglasses. I could barely see his face.
"Why hello… What brings you here, to my humble office?" The man said while waving his hand around towards the whole room.
"Um W-well I'm kinda new here and I need my schedule, and the lady at the desk, I think her name's Shizune, told me that you would have it…" I struggled out. For some reason I was a little scared of this guy, for obvious reasons..
"N-new Student!?" The man shouted happily.
"Yea.."
"Oh.My.God! we haven't had a new student in forever!!!" The guy yelled while standing up from the chair. At first I thought he was going to jump me, but then he did something I wasn't really expecting; he reached down and in one fluid motion, his hat, trench coat, and glasses were gone. Standing before me was a tall guy wearing a tight green spandex, had black shiny hair with a bowl-cut. He also had a slightly large nose, very bushy and large eyebrows, and he was making a strange pose.
"Let me introduce myself! I am known as the King of Youth!! But you may call me Gai-sensei! I am your new counselor, and I am also the man who manages the Youth club after school! I help people find their inner youth! I also have won many trophies in the youth academy!!" He shouted excitedly as he pointed towards a long shelf that was full of Gold trophies and necklaces that all said something around the lines of 'Congratulations on winning the Trophy of Youth! May the youth be with you always!'
Gai jumped onto the desk, put his hands on his hips, and smiled. His teeth were so shiny when he smiled that I had to block my eyes for a moment. I looked at the trophies again and chuckled.
"You made those yourself didn't you?" I asked. Gai was so surprised by my sudden question that he accidentally fell off the desk and landed on his face.
"Nobody ever figured that out before! How did you… Well well well. The power of Youth must be very strong within you!" He said in his loud voice and ran up to me, taking my right hand in his hands.
"Uuumm… yeah sure, whatever you say. Can I have my Schedule now?" I asked impatiently. I just really wanted to get out of here. This guy was really creepy. He blinked at me a couple of times, as if trying to remember something, but then he snapped his fingers and ran to his desk. I saw him open up a drawer and grab a sheet of paper.
"Here you go! I hope you will join me and my best student Lee in the youth club after school?!" Gai asked excitedly. I snatched the paper out of his hands and looked up at him.
"Um sure whatever. I'm gonna go now…" I said while slowly walking backwards, towards the door.
"Oh, and if you have anything that's bothering your youthful self, or if you want to just talk to someone you can always come to me!!" He shouted after me as I pried the door open and ran out.
Yeah right! I'd rather chew my own legs off then go back there again!
I said a quick good bye to the nice lady at the desk and ran out of the office.
I'm guessing that he's the only weirdo in this school…
Oh but if only I knew how wrong I was…
The bell for second period rang loudly through the empty hallways. And said hallways were immediately filling with many students just then. I pressed myself against the wall as crowds and crowds of people pushed their ways through the large hallways. I sighed when I realized that had missed the whole first period, but I shrugged and looked down at my schedule.
Schedule:
1st period – Teacher: Kakashi-sensei – Subject: English – Room# 122

7th period – Teacher: Deidara-sensei – Subject: Art – Room# 7
8th period – Teacher: Kyuubi-sensei – Subject: History – Room# 95
I groaned in despair. Today was going to be a really long day indeed.
I took a deep breath to calm myself and put a smile on my face. No use being down in the dumps today! I'll never make friends that way! Alright, let's get this over with…
I placed my schedule in my orange notebook and looked around the emptying hall to spot someone who could probably help me. I spotted a tall boy making his way slowly towards the room next to me. I stopped him by tapping him on the shoulder and he looked at me, his expression looking completely bored and tired. He had long brown hair that he tied up in a high pony tail, and he wore a pair of blue baggy pants with a plain white Tee. I smiled up at him and he smiled slightly back.
"Excuse me, but can you help me. I'm new here and I don't know where room 100 is. Could you point me in the right direction please?" I asked hopefully. He gave me a sympathetic look, as if he felt sorry for me, but then his expression turned back to being bored.
"Troublesome… If you keep going down this hall and make a right, you should spot it. It's the second door on the left." The guy said while stuffing his hands into his pockets.
"Okay! Thanks!" I said gratefully while turning in the direction that he pointed.
"Oh wait! What's your name? Mine's Naruto." I said while turning back towards him.
"Shikamaru." He said while walking away, but he paused and said over his shoulder, "Good luck."
I blinked a few times and smiled at him. "thank you again Shikamaru!" I shouted after him while getting a few weird looks from the passing students. I ignored them and started walking in the opposite direction that Shikamaru was walking to go find room 100.
((About 5 long agonizing minutes))
I just stood there in the middle of the hallway, staring at the door that said 'Room 100. Uchiha-sensei's room.'
I looked both ways in the hall to see that no one was around. I sighed and reached for the door knob. Might as well get this done and over with…
I opened the door to find everything silent as all the students turned their heads towards me. I gulped hard, a sudden lump caught in my throat. I had the sudden feeling of stage fright. I looked around towards the chalk board in front of the class to see a tall man there, staring intently at me with crimson red eyes. I wondered if he was wearing red contacts or if his eyes were actually that color. Either way they looked really cool. He had long black hair that he tied in a loose pony tail at the base of his neck. The man was at least two heads taller than me and he had two deep lines on either side of his face right next to his nose, they looked like scars to me.
Overall he was one sexy beast! Wait… that didn't not just make it way to my mind! Nope! I'm straight! Not gay, not bi, straight! I especially don't think a teacher is hot… pffbt!
"And who might you be?" He asked in a deep silky voice. I pulled on the bottom of my shirt nervously and looked around at everyone who was looking at me expectantly.
"N-Naruto Uzumaki. I'm the new student." I said, well more like stuttered…
"Hey there cutie!" I looked over and saw a boy waving at me cheerfully. The boy had short messy brown hair and upside-down red triangles tattooed to his cheeks. My face turned red in embarrassment, but I smiled a small smile and waved back timidly.
"Ah yes. I remember the principle mentioning something about a new student joining us. Well, you may go take a seat next to the grumpy looking boy in the back. His name is Sasuke."
"I am not Grumpy!" I looked around to see a boy sitting in the very back row, right next to the window. He had an emotional expression splayed on his face. He looked a lot like Uchiha-sensei only his hair was styled differently (like a duck's butt!!) and he had pitch black eyes instead of smoldering red.
"Fine, you're a crabby hormonal teenager. Happy?" Uchiha-sensei said; his voice laced with indifference. Sasuke groaned and repeatedly crashed his forehead onto his desk.
"If you don't stop that then I'm gonna end up making you go to the nurses office." Itachi huffed and put his fists on his hip. The other student only started hitting his head even harder.
I smiled in amusement and walked over to the back of the room to the desk next to the raven-haired boy who was still banging his head on the table. I could practically i feel /i the stares I was getting from everyone else in the room. Some of the student's looked like they wanted to i eat /i me! I blushed even more; I wasn't used to getting so much attention at once, unless I did something stupid, but I don't think I did anything this time.
When I sat myself at my desk everyone turned back to the front of the class and Sasuke finally stopped abusing himself and sighed in annoyance, with his cheek placed on his desk. He looked me up and down curiously but then snorted and looked away. I glared at the back of his head and stuck out my tongue.
"Alright class! Open your textbooks to page 42 and begin doing questions 1 through 60. I expect all the questions to be done by the end of class and handed in to me. Anyone who doesn't finish them will be staying after for detention. Everyone, including me flinched at his cold stare and I could've sworn my jaw hit the desk surface. 60 questions in 30 minutes!? That's impossible!
"Oh and Naruto you can share Sasuke's textbook until I get you your own."
"Why me?" Sasuke asked monotonously while glaring slightly at Uchiha-sensei.
"Because I said so. Now everyone begin!" He demanded while walking over to his desk.
"Yes, Uchiha-sensei " Sasuke spat. After that everyone went silent, and the only noise I could here was hasty pencils and pens on paper. I took out my orange pen and notebook while scooting my desk closer to Sasuke's so I could see the Textbook more clearly. The raven-haired boy looked over at me with narrowed eyes and had a evil glare set on me.
"Stow it you teme. I'd rather not get detention on my first day here." I whispered angrily at him. He stared at me heatedly at first but then moved his glare to the textbook, and began writing the answers in his notebook. I was hastily writing down the questions and trying to figure them out, but, unfortunately, we didn't get this far in my other school. I squirmed in my seat nervously while flicking my eyes around the room. I could see that most people were up to at least question 27, but I hadn't even finished 1!
"Dobe." Sasuke whispered to me.
"What did you just call me!?" I shouted, but then I froze when I realized what I did. Pencils had stopped writing and everyone was looking at me again… Uchiha-sensei looked up from a book he was reading to look at me irritated.
"Mr. Uzumaki, will you have the pleasure of joining me after school today for detention?" It wasn't a question or offer, it was a demand. I sulked and slumped sadly in my seat but nodded to the teacher. He smirked and began reading his book again. I looked over and glared at Sasuke, who wasn't even paying attention to me!
Just then the bell rang for 3rd period. I quickly grabbed my stuff and ran out the door before Itachi could ask if I had finished the assignment. Because I didn't even finish the first problem! I hope today doesn't get any worse….
