Hello, readers! Chapter 6 is up now! Our dear little Izuna chan is grown up now, and the Konoha shinobis make their entrance. Enjoy, and as usual, review!
Izuna looked at the door she was supposed to enter, which led to her would-be class. Madara neesan had left her a few moments ago, leaving her to the mercy of a silver-haired teacher with a mast covering his face three quarters of his face who looked perverted as he stared unabashedly at the orange porn book in his hands. He had been standing there giggling with vigor, totally ignoring her presence.
"Um, sensei?"
"Ah, yes?"
So he WAS alert.
"Should I get in?"
"Oh, of course. Silly me, how could I forget. My name is Hatake Kakashi by the way. Call me Kakashi sensei." He said with his eyes, the only visible part of his face, curved up into crescent smiles as he pushed open the door. The class' noisy chatter came to an abrupt halt.
"Class, this is the student. Introduce yourself, or whatever." Kakashi sensei announced, with his nose buried in his porn all the while. The class seem to be used to this, since no one stood up and screamed at the teacher to put down his book.
"My name is Izuna Uchiha. It's a pleasure to meet you all." She said, as perfunctory as a self-introduction could be in any novel sold in any bookstore. The class remained silent for a few moments, before a sunny-looking blond grinned and yelled out his greetings.
"Hi, Izuna! I'm Naruto!"
"Don't yell like that, you dolt!" A pink-haired girl yelled. Beside the blond, a pale boy with raven hair snorted, earning himself an angry "Hey!" He waved at her in greeting, and Izuna immediately recognized her as Sasuke, her cousin. A few girls gave her surprised and envious glares.
"Maa maa, calm down Sakura. Izuna, right? You can go and sit beside Tobirama over there. Do you see him, the white-haired boy beside the window?"
"Yes, Kakashi sensei."
"You're so polite, dear. Much politer than most." Izuna heard Kakashi sensei mutter as she walked towards the boy. The boy looked up at her with his burgundy eyes and smiled lightly, although it looked more like a businessman's smile, emotionless and simply for business meetings.
"Hello. My name is Tobirama Senju."
Senju, the rivaling company's clan. The one Father always taught to never associate with the members.
"I'm Izuna, as you probably heard earlier. I hope we get along nicely, despite our supposed rivalry." Izuna emphasized at the end. Tobirama seemed to get it, because a flash of realization passed through his eyes.
"Of course, Uchiha san."
"Call me Izuna, Senju san."
"Very well, and me Tobirama, Izuna."
"Of course." Izuna internally groaned. She had wanted friends, not enemies, but apparently her Uchiha roots were a bit deep for her liking. She wished she hadn't said all that to her future seatmate, but it was too late now. Better repair it a bit.
"Don't be too serious about what I said Tobirama. My dad just drilled that in me." She whispered as Kakashi told them to open their books to page 135 of their history book.
"I know. My father drilled that in me too." He whispered back, smirking. Izuna smiled, happy that he wasn't offended. This semester might turn out better than she thought.
After class, a few girls approached Izuna with curious eyes and gossipy smiles.
"Hi, I'm Sakura Haruno. You heard me screaming at Naruto earlier."
"Name's Ino Yamanaka. Welcome." Flirty smile.
"I am Hinata Hyuuga…" A timid girl said as she dwindled her fingers, slightly pink in the face.
"I'm Tenten. Nice to meet you." Said the girl with Chinese double buns. Honestly, Izuna had no idea what to respond to the girls, but she smiled anyway. The girls chattered with her for a while about beauty, boys, generally girl stuff. Every girl near her screamed when she told them Sasuke was her cousin and told her he was so hot every girl had been in love with him before (way to go, cousin), except Hinata, who seemed way too shy to even scream. They also talked about yaoi pairs, which Izuna found a bit unnerving. The girls told her that the perverted teacher of hers, Kakashi sensei, liked another teacher with the name of Iruka Umino. Izuna decided that was just too much information.
"Okay, so I know enough about the boys and all the whatnot." Izuna cried, putting up her hands. She was just about to get overwhelmed with information, which wasn't really that useful. The girls immediately quietened down. "I thought I'd be a social outcast, but apparently you guys were nicer people than I thought, considering I had horrible social skills."
"Dearie, you'd never be a social outcast. Look at yourself." Sakura said, glaring at the boy who was staring at her with a weird gleam in his eyes. Izuna cocked her head slightly, unable to interpret the gleam. Was it curiosity? Doesn't look like it.
"That's right. Hot girls never get isolated!" Ino said with a dramatic swirl of her long, silky blond hair. "Of course, I'm the hottest one here."
"She always thinks she is." Tenten whispered to Izuna, rolling her eyes. By now, she had a basic knowledge of all four girls. Ino had a slightly bitchy personality (okay, very bitchy), but she really was gorgeous. Sakura was quite flat chested, and she had a loud, high-pitched voice. She had pink hair (Seriously, pink?) and nice, smooth skin that was pale and pretty. She seems to be a sunny person, much better than Ino. Tenten was a Chinese culture lover. Everything about her seemed Chinese: her hair, her face, even her modified school bag. Hinata was a slightly creepy girl who had whitish lavender eyes. She was the cousin of Neji Hyuuga, a senior a year above them. She was shy from day one in the school. A second later, the bell rang, and the girls returned to their seats. Tobirama looked at her with amazement.
"I've never seen Ino be nice to any new kid before."
"I really don't know why, Tobirama. I just got here."
"Probably because you look…" Tobirama sized her up and down, making Izuna feel extremely self-conscious and uncomfortable. "worthy of attention, I suppose."
" ? " Izuna didn't really understand that at all.
"It means you look nice." Tobirama said, sighing in defeat. Izuna pouted slightly at Tobirama's annoyed (or so she thought) tone.
"Hn."
