Chapter Three: Reunion
- "Breaking news. Our famous star, Namikaze Minato and his wife died in a terrible accident yesterday. The accident which happened at twelve midnight local time, killed the both of them immediately as the car Minato-san was driving could not be controlled and hit a trailer on the other side of the road. The only survivor of the accident was their only son, Uzumaki Naruto who is now being treated in Polygon Hospital." -
How long have it been since that accident occured? Two, three weeks? I didn't know anymore. All that I knew was that I was going to be brought back to Japan. They said I would be living with my foster grandparents from then on. I tried to move my head, but I could not even feel it anymore. All that could feel was the pain stinging all over my body.
'Kami-sama, how did this happen to me?' I thought.
I closed my eyes again so that I could let the pain away, at least for a little while. When I opened my eyes, I realised I was in a completely different room. I knew I was already in Japan by then. Then, I noticed my foster grandmother, Tsunade, standing by the door. She was talking to her husband, Jiraiya, whom was my foster grandfather.
"He will be alright..." I heard Jiraiya said.
"I know that," Tsunade smiled weakly. "You go home and have some rest now, okay? I'll take care of him now..."
Jiraiya only smiled back, gave her a light kiss on the temple and went away. Then, Tsunade turned around and saw that I was awake. She let out a forced smile at me, a tear slowly falling down her cheek. I felt sorry for her and wanted to hug her, but I could not do so. Both my legs and my arms were plastered in cement and I could not move even an inch.
I tried to speak. "I...I'll be...fine..."
"Yes, you will, Naruto..." she replied, kissing me on my forehead. "I know you will..."
A year later...
"All right! I can finally go to school again!"
"Naruto, be careful! The doctor said you're still weak," Tsunade said worriedly.
"Aww...no fair! Baa-chan, won't you at least say that I'm stronger now?" I pouted. "Besides, I'm really much stronger now!"
The middle-aged woman gave me a glare. "What did you call me again, brat?"
"Nothing! I'm off now! Ja, Tsunade-baa-chan!"
Before she managed to yell at me again, I quickly ran out of the house. Then, I headed straight for school. Indeed, I felt really energetic and excited that morning. I really did not know why, but somehow I felt like going to school as soon as possible. My heart was beating fast, as if something good was going to happen that day.
When I reached the school compound, I realised I was a little bit late since the school gate was about to close and a brown-haired man with a stern look on his face was standing by the gate. I assumed he was the discipline teacher and decided not to mess with him. I slowed down my pace and approached him slowly.
"You're late," was his first words when he saw me.
"Hai..." I replied, looking down at the ground. "Actually, I'm a new student here..."
Probably sorry for me, he said, "...follow me. Be sure not to be late again, nevertheless."
"H-hai!"
He smiled at me and I grinned back. Then, I followed him to the principal's office. To my surprise, the principal was no other then my ex-foster father, Uchiha Fugaku. At first, I doubted it even thoguh he resembled a lot like him, but then I saw the name tag in his shirt and all my doubts were answered. Still, I tried to keep my cool and not to glomp him.
"...Uzumaki Naruto, is it?" he asked and I nodded. "...welcome back. I'll put you in the same class as Sasuke, okay?"
His face looked as serious as always, but I could clearly see happiness glimmering in his eyes. I smiled at him and thanked him. Then, the discipline teacher, whose name was Umino Iruka, broguth me to my classroom. The very first thing I noticed when I got into the class was - it was full of everything, from nerds to preps to emos.
Iruka-sensei walked towards the teacher and spoke something to him. Then, the white-haired man looked over to me and smiled underneath his mask. I smiled back in confusion. 'Why would he wear a mask?' I thought. Still, I put my question aside and put on my biggest smile. He then told me to introduce myself to the class.
"Oyaho gozaimasu, minna-san! Watashi no namae wa Uzumaki Naruto! Dozo yoroshiku!"
When they heard my name, most of the sutdents started to whisper to each other. Even the teacher, Hatake Kakashi, gave me an odd look. I looked down at the floor, sad and quite embarrassed. Then, I heard someone stood up. I looked up - and saw him. '...Sasuke?' he looked straight into my eyes. I blushed and looked away.
'...the class's very quiet now...' I suddenly realised. I looked around, but no one spoke a thing. I turned my vision to Kakashi-sensei. He had an amused expression on his face and signalled for me to take my seat - beside Sasuke. My heart thumped as I walked towards the empty desk. I could feel him watching me like a hawk.
When I finally got to my seat, he sat down and class began like usual, weirdly. However, I could not pay attention to class since a raven was eyeing me intensely. I could only looked down at my desk and fidgeted every now and again. It felt awkward to do such a thing, but I did it somehow, not knowing the reason why.
"...dobe..."
Dun dun dun! Lol! I'm being random right now! Oaky, so it didn't exactly ended how I wanted, but it's okay I think, since this ending was perfect! But, there's still more to come! Sasuke and Naruto had finally met each other again, what will happen? Stay tuned to find out! Lol! Woot! Please review! Woot! Ja ne!
