Alright back to neglecting all my other stories to follow the will of my muse. Enjoy.
The four shinobi followed their new guardians throughout the halls of the large compound they had been brought to shortly after entering the limits of the city, each taking mental notes of the layout of the building in case they may need to escape. "Wooooow, this place is huuuuuge. Do you think they have a food court or something? I'm starving, I bet they've got great food here, think they'll give us some food? Hey Zaby you listening?"
Said mist ninja was in the process of calling upon every bit of discipline training he'd ever received to keep himself from murdering the masked boy where he stood. "Tobi, on the grave of the Sage, if you don't shut the fu-"
"We're here." The teen who had been leading them interrupted his threat before opening up a door that lead into a large office with a window that looked out over the city.
"Welcome, please come in." A middle aged woman sitting behind the desk at the center of the room announce as the four entered before the boy who lead them left shutting the door with him. "Take a seat, I'd like to speak with you four for a bit." The four did as they were asked and sat down in the chairs across from the womans desk. The woman pulled out a white rectangular object the lit up as she fiddled with it. "I must say, you four really gave a few people here quite the scare tonight. When I first saw several young children cornered by a horde of grimm with only a pair of turrets to protect them, well I thought we would have a tragedy on our hands, that is until I saw this."
The large windows behind her all stopped being translucent and became black before large images of the four ninja appeared on them. Zabuza bisecting two Sifters in half at once, Han suplexing another, Yugao decapitating one, and Tobi expertly dodging several Sifters that were charging from all sides while acting as if he were terrified.
"Now normally I'd ask what you four were thinking being outside the walls all alone, but instead I'm more interested where your four learned to fight like this without even having your aura unlocked. Our sensors can tell none of you were using aura during your battle with the grimm. I've already sent pictures of you to the headmaster of Umbra academy here in the city and he's never seen any of you. So, who are you?" Dorothy asked the four ninja who all looked amongst themselves.
Zabuza was the first to speak up. "And why the hell should we tell you anything?"
Dorothy frowned at the blatant disrespect. "Because young man, if you don't tell me we'll be forced to take disciplinary actions."
Zabuza actually began laughing at the womens idea of a threat. "So what? Your gonna put us in a corner for a time out?!" He threw his head back as he laughed harder. "Or maybe you plan on giving me a spanking!" Dorothy narrowed her eyes at the young ninja before raising her hand and flicking the air in front of her sending a pulse of energy that slammed into Zabuza and sent him flying into the wall behind them. Zabuza fell to the ground in a slump before lifting himself up to his feet while growling, he placed his hand on the handle of his blade while glaring at the older woman who was still seated in her chair. "YOU BITCH!"
"ZABUZA!" The voice surprised everyone and stopped the mist ninja before he could even begin his charge at the woman. Everyone looked to Tobi who was sitting comfortably with his head resting on his hand. "Please take a seat, I'd like to here what this woman has to say." The three other ninja stared at the masked boy with wide eyes as his voice sounded slightly different and had a much more serious tone to it, he also had an undeniable sense of authority to himself at that moment as well. "Cuz the sooner we get this through the sooner we get food!" He then added while throwing up a peace symbol completely destroying any sense of respectability he had gained the moment before.
Zabuza who had now lost his desire to attack the older woman grumbled as he picked up his chair and sat back down. "So who would like to go first?" She asked again causing Yugao to raise her hand.
Several hours later
Each of the four ninja laid on a bed in the room the woman, they now knew as Dorothy Goodwitch headmistress of the academy they were currently located at, provided for them. Yugao had been able to convince the woman that the four children were all adopted siblings who were raised outside the walls by their father, Hiruzen Sarutobi, a name which irked both Han and Zabuza. It seemed their feelings towards the leaf weren't good enough to be okay with being the fake children of the late third Hokage.
She explained that their 'father' had taught them all how to fight since they were young, and recently died leaving them alone. This is why they came looking for Vacuo city, they'd picked up the name of the city on their way to the academy. Han would throw in a bit of extra 'detail' to the story here and there and soon they had quite the believable tale, even if they could all tell that the headmistress was still suspicious of them.
Sense they were all under aged and, as told by Yugao's story, without a legal guardian, Dorothy gave them a choice as to either go into foster care until they were of age, or enroll in Umbra academy and begin the path to becoming hunters. Needless to say none of them wanted to either go to school again or become orphans and possibly get split up, which thanks to the seals placed on them was out of the question, but in the end they weighed their options and chose Umbra academy. They were to be taken to the academy for enrollment the next day.
"Goodnight Han."
"Goodnight Tobi."
"Goodnight Yuyu."
"Goodnight Tobi."
"Goodnight Zaby." Silence. "Goodnight Zaby." Again there was no reply. "Goodnight Zab-"
"TOBI!"
Two years later
"And Yugao is the winner!" The female ninja sheathed her blade as she left the sparring ring and walked over towards her 'brothers'. It had been two years since they had been enrolled into this academy and as much as they hated to admit it, they had all learned quite a bit. Not about combat, each already had more combat experience than any of the instructors, but instead about this world and their new abilities. This 'aura' while not quite as flexible as chakra was quite handy to have.
They'd each found their 'semblance' soon after their auras had been unlocked, they'd also been tasked with creating their own weapons to use. While at first Zabuza and Yugao had both adamantly refused to give up their blades, Zabuza's being a legendary weapon past down for generations and Yugao's formerly belonging to her dead lover, eventually they compromised and decided to instead of replacing their weapons they'd create a fire arm to add to their arsenal. Zabuza had opted to build a large caliber shotgun to use along side his executioners blade, while Yugao had decided upon building a powerful anti armor sniper rifle the double as a sheath for her blade. At the press of a button the sword would be ejected from the butt of the rifle.
Tobi and Han on the other hand had no qualms with build a new set of weapons. Tobi had built an odd pair of large thick cuffs that took up most of his forearms. When he would insert dust cartridges he could launch out long chains made of dust which he could use as surprisingly effective weapons. Han's weapon was by far the most difficult to make out of the four and took the most work to perfect. Han create a new set of his former steam armor, using his semblance, which was the ability to control his body temperature, he could power the armor by heating up the water withing the suit and turning it into steam to increase his over all strength immensely. All in all it worked very similarly to his old set.
"Hey Tobi, how's my character?" Yugao asked as she sat down with the group pulling her scroll out of her ukata. She wore a short purple ukata with a black sash holding it together at the waist, the ukata reached down to her mid thigh. On her legs she wore black leggings and a pair of purple flats on her feet. In her hair she had a white and yellow flower. Sewn into the side of the sash was the Konoha symbol.
"A ok!" Tobi responded giving a thumbs up as he continued to play the game on their scrolls, Yugao rejoining. "You almost got swarmed by creeps but I saved you!" Tobi still wore his orange mask, though had quickly opted to have a set of clothes made that created some serious tension for a while among the group. He wore the old Akatsuki uniform, a black cloak with red clouds. At first Yugao and Han were outraged at learning his former connections to the group but after Zabuza intervened saying that they had no right to hate Tobi for his former comrades if he himself doesn't hate them for the same reason. Tobi had still kept his face and true identity a secret however.
"You lying prick, I'm the one who pulled agro off of her while you sat back DPSing." Zabuza corrected the masked boy. Zabuza had decided to remain shirtless leaving his torso bare with the exception of the leather strap that held his sword. He wore a pair of baggy grey pants and a pair of black shinobi sandles. Around his face were a set of bandages that covered his face from the bridge of his nose down. Like in his old life he had a kiri head band made and had it tied to the side of his head.
"Explain to me again why I'm the healer in this group." Han complained as he continued keeping his three teammates alive in the game. Han's clothing, while not wearing his armor, consisted mainly of a black ukata with a red under shirt, and black matching pants. He wore black and red boots, and matching gloves. As always his face was mostly covered by a black cloth and he wore a large kata hat with the Iwa symbol on the side.
"Because you finished downloading the game last and were the last to start playing. In other words, be faster next time." Yugao answered the large boy. They continued to play their game while several more matches went on in class, not that they ever paid attention.
The four ninja had each consistently made the highest marks in all their combat and combat related classes, as well as high marks in their other subjects as well. The instructors were all in awe of their combat capabilities as well as aura control, none of the four had ever lost a match in sparring unless they were facing each other. None of the other students would voluntarily face any of the groups member, this left the ninja with a good amount of spare time and thus they discovered online gaming.
"Would the following students please report to the headmasters office. Yugao and Tobi Sarutobi. Zabuza Momochi, and Han Kokuo. Thank you." Three of the four ninja looked up in unison.
Tobi, Yugao, and Han each glared at Zabuza who glanced up from his scroll as he felt a wave of killing intent hit him. "What?"
"Who did you hurt, threaten, or traumatize this time?" Han asked as he put his scroll away and stood followed by the other three.
"Nobody!" Zabuza shouted defensively. "At least I'm pretty sure." He paused while thinking. "Okay it's fifty fifty."
The four made their way through the building towards the all to familiar headmasters office, they'd been sent their several times over the years for a variety of reasons ranging from crude language to arson. When they arrived they found the headmaster actually standing outside his office leaning up against the door. "Good afternoon you four." Headmaster Azure greeted them getting nods from the four.
"Whatever Zaby did, we weren't involved. Can we go now?" Tobi asked the man gaining a glare from the kiri ninja.
Azure smiled at the comment. "Actually today you four actually have a visitor. So do me a favor and try not to embarrass the school." He opened the door to his office and let the four in before closing it and leaving.
"It's good to see you four again." A familiar middle aged blonde woman said from her position sitting in the headmasters chair.
"Not this bitch again." Zabuza groaned before being flung through the air and into the back wall eerily similar to the last time it happened.
Dorothy smiled at the other three ignoring Zabuza as he picked himself up while seething with rage. "So how have these past two years been treating you kids?" She asked gaining shrugs from all who weren't still on the floor. She nodded at the response. "Well from what I hear you four have become quite infamous among the students and teacher alike here at Umbra academy. I've been told you even been given a nickname 'The Demon Children' by your peers. I've also heard about how effortlessly you four have been passing this schools courses."
"Please tell me your here to offer us a chance to skip a few grades and start at Shade early." Zabuza spoke as he stretched out his arm causing it to pop several times. "Because in all honesty, this beginner shit at this school is getting very annoying."
Dorothy actually chuckled at this. "Indeed that is why I'm here, so I'm assuming thats a yes from Mr. Momochi. How about you three?"
And thats another chapter down, I hope you guys liked it and don't forget to send me a PM of any questions you may want to have Fidelis answer. Leave me a review telling me what you think. LATER.
