Chapter 1 Getting Teams
Saamna's P.O.V.
We are getting teams today; I hope to be on Neome's team. I would prefer it to being on a team where I do not know anyone or more importantly what their fighting techniques were.
I dressed quickly in my usual attire of a plain white chiton, and checked to see that my gold armbands were still on, they were. I also checked to see if I had changed my right-upper armband to a new specially made one with the Hidden Leaf's symbol, I had after all just become a ninja. After I finished getting dressed I got Neome up and reminded her we had graduated so she needed to put on her ninja headband. We grabbed a quick bite to eat and started towards the academy together, confident. At least, as confident as possible, after all one of us has a slight self-esteem issue (Neome) and the other one hasn't looked any one strait in the eye for ten years (me).
When we got to the academy we saw a few mothers whispering, and since we both had unusually good hearing we could hear them perfectly. They were talking about us, "Did you hear the demon-girl and her friend, you know the one with dead eyes and strange clothes, well they both graduated. I don't know what the 3rd is thinking, those things should never been allowed to even try to become a ninja…", we had stopped listening after that. Neome is one of the stronger people I know but one thing she could not handle was people calling her a demon. She would either attack them or come close to tears; today she was on attack mode, and I almost had to drag her to the classroom and away from those idiots - she was that mad.
When Neome finally settled down and sat with me at the back of the room, Sensei came in and started talking while Neome, most the class, and I tuned out. He had said the same speech yesterday before Genin tests (or graduation exams whichever you prefer). During this very interesting speech (NOT) I noticed that Neome kept glancing at something, a person, and a boy in fact. A very particular boy by the name of Hyuuga, Neji whom also happened to be the child prodigy of the Hyuuga clan as well as the star student of our class, topping everyone except Neome and I in exams. Of course that wasn't fair to him, we had both been trained to be Chuunin or higher by the age of 7.
I never bothered to learn our sensei's name, seeing as I had just moved to this class (AKA skipped a grade) 1 week ago, so I just call him Sensei. Sensei (I say this ever so lovingly) would not just shut up and tell us what our dang team was which was the whole reason to come in the freaking first place. I could be training in and with the Haunted Forest, named this because of a ghostly spirit girl who could control the plants, (which is a complete load of bull since that so-called 'ghostly spirit girl' is me), or with some of my summonings at our secret training place which is by a breath taking private waterfall and is hidden by barrier Justus so only we could get in (by our and we, I mean Neome, the summonings, and I). Sorry getting off track there, anyway, so you see I was slightly (very) annoyed with Sensei.
After several thousand years Sensei dearest finally SHUT THE HECK UP about whatever the speech was about, and called, "Okay so on team 1 is…" not Neome or I, not Neome or I, still not Neome or I. Oh there it is, "Team 13, Kiku Murasaki," I saw a purple, well, everything girl, raise her head in acknowledgement (no seriously it was literally purple everything from her hair and eyes to her clothes, even her cheeks had purple markings on them...-_-'), "…Neome Sawu, and Saamna Yi. You will have Nokomis Neko as your Sensei." Yes, I'm with Neome.
All right, new team here I come…
Neome's P.O.V.
Today just started out bad and only got slightly better. Nobody likes waking up and having like 5 minutes to get ready for the day. Nobody likes walking to school and being called a demon girl and having their loyalty to their home questioned all in one sentence. Then the oh so great Sensei decided to give a speech. Lucky me (note my sarcasm). The only upside was being given some time to think.
Lately I had been thinking of a certain boy in my class and if you've guessed already good job (again sarcasm). Neji Hyuuga. The boy who can somehow make me look at him by just sitting there. I have never had this feeling before so I don't know what it is. I always find myself thinking about him and I can hear Valio in my head laughing his head off in the back of my mind.
I was so caught up in my thoughts that I jumped slightly when my name was called. Then held back my small smile when Saamna's name was called right after mine. After ignoring the rest of Sensei's rambling I followed Saamna to where we were supposed to meet our team. I saw a girl who was well…purple. Her short hair was a light purple and her eyes were a slightly darker shade. She had purple marks on her cheeks and a purple overload of purple (Yes I meant to say that) on her outfit. Kiku Murasaki… Most purple girl I have ever met. She hurts my eyes. Now all we had to do was wait for our new Sensei. And boy did it take forever!
