Shinobi School Academy: current time 9.00
- What about guys! This completes entry into the academy! You are all free.
-Oh yes, Class rep!
[Teacher Shino looked at Sumire carefully and seriously.]
-Yes! [Sumire approached him with a questioning look]
-I have an important task for you.
- I'm listening. [Sumire answered, also looking attentively at the teacher]
-Check that no one has forgotten their things, turn off the lights, and close the classroom
[With these words, Shino sensei left the class at some breakneck speed.]
W..What? So that’s what he needed the class leader for?! He just wanted to blame me for what he should have done himself!!
[Suddenly, Sumire's thoughts became clearer about the reasons for choosing the prefect, and she began to watch the students leave the class and inspect their desks.]
-Clear.
-It's time to close.
She approached him, but he seemed so lost in his thoughts that he did not immediately notice Sumire's presence. The boy had a sad face.]
-Ano?..₁ [Sumire addressed him quietly.]
-Oh..
[The boy in a white cape, with the same skin color, a brown-haired boy, shuddered.]
-S-sorry I.. I'm already leaving!!
-And who are you? I didn’t see you at student initiations or in class. [Sumire replied smiling]
-I.. Magire Kakuremino..
I was late for the induction ceremony...
[The boy said all this with great embarrassment]
-And I.. [Before she could finish speaking, Magire interrupted her.]
-Are you the class president, Miss.. Sumire?
-Right.
[The Class Leader answered, still smiling.]
-It seems to me or are you sad about something?..
-Well.. This.. You see!.. I have no friends and I am very.. very afraid to make contact with my peers!!
[Oh, how lucky I got it, because of the sensei’s instructions I missed out on Mettal Lee, but this one is even better for the ritual! Sumire smiled as beautifully as possible, and began to speak very gently.]
-Oh.. And you prove the opposite! Try to make friends with someone and you will succeed!
-D..Do you think?! [The guy answered excitedly, poking two fingers at each other]
-Yes! I'm sure!
[Sumire said smiling, and removing her hand behind her back, she used the gesture for the first time, and felt a trembling and as if her back was starting to burn, she saw how a small dark violet ball flew out from behind her back and penetrated the boy in the solar plexus area. ]
[Gotcha! Animatedly flashed through the girl’s thoughts.]
-S..Thank you for your trust!!
[He said and flew out of the classroom like a bullet.]
-Okay.. It's time for me to go..
What a strange boy, and I’m not going to be friends with anyone!
***
pov: Magire House
-Mother!! I'm home!! Can you imagine, I made my first friend!!
[The woman was sitting at the table, clearly not in a sober state, the overturned bottle lying already empty testified to this.
-Do you think this is interesting to me?!
[the woman answered her son rudely.]
-I just hope that you will stop being a doormat and become a shinobi.
-That you will earn a lot of money, and we will leave here.
-But.. Mom..
[The guy answered sadly.]
-Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! And I don’t believe that you could have any friends!
[Taking the bottle, she tried to take a sip, but the bottle was completely empty, which made her angry and threw it at her son, who was forced to dodge.]
-Mother!!
[The woman turned to him and said]
-Be a good girl and cook mommy lunch.
-Yes mom..
[After Magire prepared dinner, he lay down on the bed, remembering Sumire, remembering her smile and how she expressed her support and kindness.]
-I will have friends!! I will prove it to everyone!! 1 already available!!
-Ahh, Miss Sumire, you are so beautiful, I will prove to you that I am not a loser!
[At this moment, the seedling began to sprout inside it, taking root.]
***
Finally, after a complete check of the class, Sumire closed the class and went home, when suddenly she saw Metal Lee sitting on the bench, oh what luck Sumire thought to herself and walked up to him.
-Metal Kun?
-Class rep?..
[he answered in surprise] [Sumire held her hand behind her back, preparing to use gozu tenno, and smiled]
-Is something bothering you?..
-Miss Head Girl, tell me, is it necessary to go to the academy to become a shinobi?!
-You don’t like going to the academy?..
-D.. That’s not the point! My father tells me to make friends, but I don't want to! I just want to train with him! And only he can teach tai-jutsu, I can’t do anything else..!
So why should I go to the academy and make friends! I don't need them!
[Sumire thought for a moment and then answered]
-Then let's talk to him about it!
-T..You don’t understand!
He is such a person, he won’t listen!
he firmly said that I should go to the academy!
-I can’t prove anything to him.. Like everyone else.. to anyone!
[At that moment, Sumire took his palm and squeezed it with both of hers and smiled slyly]
- Just try, I’m sure you’ll succeed!
[How, how will he succeed! Sumire thought to herself.]
[For two years after the incident with her parents, she studied people's behavior, and she immediately determines what the victims will be able to achieve and what they will not. What exactly did she play on.]
[Sumire used gozu tenno on Metal, he also entered through the solar plexus]
-I.. I'll try!!
Metal answered and a blush appeared on his cheek, after which they parted]
Sumire headed home by train, when she got home she ate first thing, this time opening a can of canned food without getting hurt.
After eating, she laid out the books on the table, opening and starting to read each one, Sumire quickly leafed through the books because it all seemed familiar to her.
But despite this, she finished it in the evening.
-Nothing interesting or new...
“There was only a little I didn’t know here; the master prepared me well.”
-There’s nothing to do, I’ll go to bed early.
[Sumire lay down on the bed counting all her actions, for her it’s like writing a diary]
-And so... Until 2.00 I had to clean and ventilate the apartment
-Then I somehow fell asleep, naturally I slept poorly, for about 5 hours...
-I managed to injure my hand near the finger.
-I saw such a beautiful thing, the son of the Hokage almost destroyed the silhouette of the 7th Hokage!
[said this to Sumire and finally laughed]
-Ahahahahaha!
[Laughing and kicking my legs without holding back, letting out the emotion] I've been keeping this to myself for so long..
-Boruto! You made my day, it’s a pity even after this that you will become a victim of my revenge..
-Oh, and I almost burned myself to death during the formations and the lesson..
-I managed to imitate emotions well...
- It's a pity it's all fake. I laugh if something like this happens, something that is related
to the destruction of Konoha, or from nerves..
-And I also found two victims! Two at once on the first day! I'm done? I'm done!
Sumire felt herself falling asleep and began to give in to this desire, when suddenly a voice in her head woke her up.]
-Sumire.
[Sumire didn't expect this, she suddenly opened her eyes and sat down on the bed.]
-Master?.. [She answered wearily]
-I see that you managed to plant two whole seedlings!
-Well done! You decided their sacrificial virginity!
-Congratulations Sumire!
[Master Sumire said all this with insane delight]
-Thank you, of course, but is that all you wanted to say, master?
[After this his voice became serious.]
-After the seeds bear fruit and you collect chakra from them...
-Keep in mind that the victims will be barely alive, and sooner or later Konoha will realize something is wrong and will investigate it.
-You understand that disclosure before the due time is unacceptable.
"Kakei" Sumire.
Gozu Tenno should not end up in enemy hands.
-Don’t worry master, I will do whatever is required.
-As soon as you realize that you have been exposed...
-and even more so, pinned in a corner...
-Kill yourself.
-Yes.. Master..
[Sumire answered calmly.]
[at this point the connection was lost, completely ruining
Sumire's mood.]
After which Sumire went to bed.
***
Metal Lee's house. time 20.00
[Rock Lee and his son Metal were in the room.]
-98..99..100! [Metal responded loudly, finishing his push-ups.]
-Father.. I want to talk to you..
-Yes?
[Li answered seriously. Thus, Metal doubted at first but continued.]
-Father, please! I don't want to go to the academy, I only want to train with you! I can handle!..
-What nonsense, Metal, answer me, what are friends for?
-I don't know!! And I don't need them!
[Metal answered overcoming self-doubt]
-Do you really think that you won’t need friends in the future?
- I'm sure father!!
-Then, let's fight Son!! Prove to me that you can handle it!!
[Lee lunged, Metal had to dodge, he couldn’t do anything to oppose his father, and in the end Lee just jabbed his palm into Metal’s stomach and threw him into the wall]
-
Argh.. Father, I need your training to become stronger..
-You are weak and unsure of yourself, son. You need friends, and tomorrow you will go to the academy.
-But... father!
-No, but son. One day you will thank me.
In the meantime, go to bed.
All this made Metal so angry that the seedling began to grow very actively in him.
*** Uzumaki House, Boruto's Room: Current time 7.30
Boruto woke up to the sound of his alarm clock, successfully hitting it with his hand and turning it off, he opened his eyes.
-Now it’s time to go to the academy! Goodbye serene life!
[A long stream of tears flowed from Boruto’s eyes², after which the blond went down to the kitchen, where Boruto’s mother, Hinata Hyuga, was already preparing breakfast for the whole family.
The truth is more accurate only on Boruto and Himawari, since Naruto has already eaten and left.]
-Oh Boruto, good morning. [Hyuuga said with a smile when she saw her son.]
-Good morning mom. [The young Uzumaki answered, rubbing his eyes from sleep]
-Today is your first day at the academy, you will find friends, and even your betrothed! Just like I found your father!
[Hinata put her hands on her cheeks and remembered the story at the academy, starting to go into the past, blushing more, remembering how she looked at Naruto]
- Damn, mom! I've heard this 1000 times already! And there’s no need to exaggerate it so much, okay?!
[Boruto responded with a dissatisfied expression.]
-Sorry Sorry! You are already so grown up, it seems like just yesterday I was holding you in my arms, feeding you with a spoon and giving you milk from a bottle!..
-Mama!!
[This made Boruto feel ashamed]
-Well, that's it!
[Hinata put down a plate of food]
-Here you go, eat it while it’s warm!
-Uh-huh, thanks mom.
Having completely emptied the plate and thanked him for the food, Boruto began to dress in casual clothes, and Himawari’s voice answered him at the door.
-Big bro, where are you going?! How can you play with me? You forgot?!
[Boruto turned and walked up to Himawari and began to ruffle her hair, so much so that he ruffled it roughly.
Their relationship was truly family, Boruto more than once said that he was happy to have such a sister as Himawari]
-Oh brother, you messed up all my hair! Well, that's enough!
-Sorry, sorry, I forgot to tell you in the evening that it won’t work in the morning.
-Himawari, I’m already a grown boy, and I have to go to the shinobi academy!
[Himawari pouted dissatisfiedly]
- It turns out.. You won’t play with me anymore?!
-Of course I will, but let’s do it in the evening, okay Hima? [Unless I get tired, of course, Boruto thought.]
-Fine! But be careful not to deceive me!
-Okay, bye Hima! [Boruto was about to leave when suddenly Himawari turned him away]
-Academy? Can I come with you?!
-Hehe, of course not. You'll get there in 2 years...
[Hima becomes sad]
- Don’t be sad, little sister! On the contrary, be glad that you will have a serene time.
- Okay brother, see you! [Smiling, Himawari watched her brother go.]
[Boruto turned away and raised his hand in farewell, leaving after his sister's sight.]
-I wonder if it’s fun at the shinobi academy? I'll keep an eye on my brother!
[Himawari let out a chuckle and went to follow Boruto]
*** Shinobi Academy, current time 8.00
Himawari, hiding in the corners, quietly followed her brother,
until Boruto arrived at the entrance to the academy, this forced Himawari to hide for cover.
A familiar voice responded to Boruto. It was Denki, who immediately ran up to him.
-Hello Boruto! Are you worried?!
- Hello Denki.
-Not really. [Uzumaki responded by waving his hand.]
-Were you punished a lot? [Denki filled that case for Boruto]
-Not really..
-Dad just gave me a lecture on "exemplary behavior"
-And you know what?
-What? [asked Denki]
-I told him: are you telling me when, when you decorated Grandfather’s head?!
It made him almost choke on his words.
-Basically, he said not to do that again...
-Ahahahahaha!! [boys laughed]
-Stupid boys! [A voice from behind made the boys turn around, it was Sarada Uchiha who was walking behind them]
-Good morning to you too, Sarada. [Uzumaki responded.]
-Good [Denki also answered]
[after this the talking stopped and they entered the classroom.]
[Seeing Boruto, the class began to actively whisper, but
Boruto didn't care about this at all, he just sat down on his desk.]
Denki sat next to Boruto
-Um Boruto?
-What up Denki?
-Is this nothing? [Pointing at those who are whispering behind Boruto's back]
-But I don’t care.
[Uzumaki Jr. answered briefly.]
[Suddenly a blond man with green eyes enters the classroom]
-Of course you don’t care, Boruto didn’t even punish you, the son of the Hokage after all.
-Hawawawawa! Inojin-Kun!
[Sumire first thought about intervening, but stopped abruptly, thinking: Let it go!
maybe they will even fight and one of them will be sad!]
-Oh, did I say that out loud?
[Inojin answered slyly and walked up to Boruto.]
Standing at his desk, Boruto extended his hand to him.
-Let's forget about fathers and be friends!
[But Inojin pointedly rejected the younger Uzumaki’s offer by hitting his palm with his own]
-Thank, I will refuse.
[Inojin answered smiling and then stomped to his desk]
Sarada was sitting looking at a book, putting her hand under her head, when suddenly her friend responded.
-Hey, Sarada! You're friends with Boruto, aren't you? [Chocho asked while smiling at Sarada.]
-Our families are friends, but personally I don’t want us to be considered friends. [The Uchiha answered coldly and honestly]
-Eh? Got it. Chocho answered, also staring at the book.
When suddenly teacher Shino comes in.
Immediately Sumire commanded
-Class get up! [The class immediately stood up]
-Bow!
-Sit down [answered Shino Sensei]
-And so, you all already know Boruto Uzumaki, so I don’t think it’s necessary to introduce him.
-So Boruto come to me, I will give you your books.
[Boruto walked up to Shino Sensei, who was fidgeting in his locker and suddenly turned around with shock on his face]
-Looks like there weren't enough books for everyone. -Class monitor!
-Yes! [Sumire stood up at her desk]
-Please take Boruto to the bookstore, you know what books you need.
-Understood. (She answered with a smile.)
After which Boruto and Sumire left the classroom and headed into the city to get books for Boruto.
-This is Big bro!! He's coming out!! And not alone!!
[It turns out that Himawari was in the shelter in front of the school all this time and was watching Boruto through the Byakugan, without noticing anything interesting, she was about to leave, but at the last moment she noticed Boruto coming back.]
-Who is he with?
[Himawari's heart began to beat rapidly as Boruto and the mysterious man, whose chakra she did not know, approached]
As soon as they left the building and came into Himawari's line of sight, she noticed Sumire and almost screamed:
-How beautiful and sweet!!
They started to leave and Himawari secretly followed them.
At first, Boruto and Sumire walked in silence, but unable to bear it, Sumire timidly turned to him.
[Boruto was thinking so much about studying at the academies and the fact that from now on he must go to study every morning except weekends, but Sumire’s address pulled the blond out of his thoughts.]
-Um.. Boruto Kun?..
- Oh, sorry, Class rep,
I was so lost in thought that I forgot I wasn’t alone!
[The blonde answered with a smile]
-I was worried that you were expelled..
[Highly saying this, Sumire began to win over Boruto, at the same time trying to evoke sad emotions in him, while simultaneously saying to herself in her thoughts, “Haha, were you worried about him?!”
This sounds so funny!” to her surprise, the guy just smiled and turned to face her.]
-It's okay, Inchou!
You don't have to worry about a bully like me!
[Did not work? Sumire thought in surprise]
Then, for about 15 minutes, in complete silence, they walked to the bookstore.
When they approached the bookstore, an unpleasant surprise awaited them: it was closed until 8.30, and now it was only 8.15.
They sat down on the bench, still in silence.
Boruto raised his head to the hokage rock and thought about something, he felt somehow sad and sad.
Sumire noticed this and decided to take advantage of this chance.
-Boruto-kun..
Is something making you sad?
[Immediately Sumire switched to the topic of sadness and sadness.]
-A? Just don't tell anyone okay, Class rep?
[Boruto felt that he could trust Sumire.]
-Of course, Boruto-kun!
That's why I'm the headman, to help the students!
[Sumire hid her hand behind her knee, preparing to use gozu tenno, smiling slyly at Boruto]
-You see.. Inchou..
My father wants me to become Hokage.. Just like him, he gave me a pressing responsibility..
I said I don't want to be him.
I want my shinobi way! My grandfather was a hokage, and my father is a hokage, enough...
[Boruto said this with sadness and fear of letting his father down, but he decided, which means he will do differently as his father advises.]
[At this moment, Sumire had almost pulled the trigger to use gozu tenno, suddenly she was knocked down by Boruto suddenly jumping up from the bench and screaming while looking towards the hokage rock]
-I am Uzumaki Boruto, and I have my own path as a shinobi, I don’t want to be Hokage, and I hate it when they decide for me! I will find my own way, and without your help, has Mr. 7 Hokage been cut off?! Dattebasa!
[This made Sumire completely lose concentration with gozu tenno, she only looked at Boruto in surprise with wide eyes, she immediately remembered how the academy decided for her that she would be a prefect. After which he sat back down next to her]
-Oh, I’m sorry for shouting so sharply, Class rep!.
[He smiled looking into her eyes, her eyes even gave him goosebumps, as if it seemed to him that he could drown in them.
Boruto awkwardly scratched the back of his head while looking at the surprised Sumire, who was still silent.]
-Inchou?!
-A-Huh?! Oh sorry Boruto-kun..
Oh, if only you knew how I became the class leader..
[Sumire turned away slightly, raising her head, her face twisting funny at this memory]
-Let me guess. There was an ominous silence, and suddenly you were asked to become a headman, and everyone unanimously supported it?!
[Sumire opened her eyes wide again and answered] -To the point, Boruto-kun, you understood this so quickly, and I thought we were going to play a guessing game.
[Sumire answered with a giggle, not even noticing that it was not due to nervousness or related to the destruction of the village.]
-Well, it’s always easier to blame problems or responsibilities that no one needs on someone else; I myself would be dissatisfied and would refuse. -And you had the patience and strength to do this, you’re a great Class rep!..
[This made Sumire very embarrassed]
[Sumire started to stutter]
-Come on.. This is nothing.. On the contrary, I’m happy to help the students..
[What am I saying?!]
Suddenly, unable to bear sitting in the shelter any longer, Himawari jumped out in front of them. -Ay, yay yay, Big bro! And he himself said that you would go to school! So this means these were all just excuses?!
[Sumire and Boruto flinched, not expecting Himawari to appear and her reaction to it.]
-Hello, Class rep! My name is Himawari Uzumaki!
-If you decide to hit on my brother, then you can also discuss this with me!
[Smiling, Himawari began giving advice to Sumire.]
[Sumire at that moment just looked at her wide with surprised eyes.]
-Himawari?! Where are you from here?! And how long have you been here?!
[Boruto jumped up from the bench, making excuses to his sister]
-And let me clarify something, what kind of excuses are we talking about?!
[Himawari smiled widely and spoke directly and clearly!]
-Well, of course, bro! Instead of studying, you went on a date with this beautiful girl! -You are so cute together!!
[Saying this, Himawari glowed like the sun]
[Boruto and Sumire flinched and both screamed, blushing on their cheeks]
-Havawawa!!!!
-AAAAAA!!!!
-Hima!! You got it all wrong!!
-In fact, we came to the bookstore and it was closed!! It will open in 5 minutes!!
-Come on?! Don't be shy brother! Tell me like it is, maybe I should call my mom here! She will be so happy!!
-Chief, hold on tight!!
[With these words, Boruto grabbed Sumire's hand and they began to run back to the academy.]
After catching their breath, they looked into each other's eyes.
-God, I've never run like that...
-Me too!.. [Sumire answered smiling back for Boruto.]
-Your little sister..
She's pretty cute, and how does she know about such things?!
[Sumire asked in surprise]
-Well, you see..
[Boruto remembered how his mother told them the story of her love with Naruto, how she wanted to ask him out on a date but was afraid, and now she shares her wisdom with the children.]
[Suddenly Boruto shuddered and said]
-Oh exactly, Damn! Books!!
-Although.. I don’t want to go back to my sister!..
[Boruto looked into the village chief's eyes and put his hands in a prayer position, and a stream of tears flowed from his eyes, just like in the morning!]
-Class rep, let's sit down together, please! I really don't want to go back..
-U..Uh-huh
[Whispered Sumire]
Returning to class empty-handed, which Shino-Sensei immediately noticed, seeing his look, they both said synchronously:
-Sorry Shino sensei!! Some kind of emergency happened...
-I’ll just sit next to the Headman this day, okay?!
[Raising his hand to his face, the sensei with an expression “as if everything could be different” just nodded to them]
They sat down at a desk and together they began to look at something in the book, at that moment Sumire enthusiastically showed Boruto something in the book, and he just nodded at her contentedly, also showing something in the book and asking Sumire questions.
All this attracted the attention of the whole class, and classmates were whispering about something. And Uchiha Sarada looked at all this dissatisfied and angrily.
