School of elites

Chapter 1

Naruto's POV

"This can't be a school." I'm seeing the large building with awe.
In a big assembly, I'm being squished into the crowd. The smell of rich colognes, touch of the elites, everything is like beyond my reach. I'm a peasant among them.

"Hey don't push!" someone elbows me from the crowd and I yelp. I mumble,"But I didn't do anything." The cold wind hitting my face and I feel cold down to my bone.

I caught people staring at me, they are probably making assumptions seeing my baggy used clothes that I bought from the store near the school. That store sells both newly custom made uniforms and donated uniforms from old students.

Even this uniform cost me a fortune and I can't possibly afford to buy the custom made uniform. I'm a freshman in this school that is called among the country 'School of elites' Just anyone can't come here. You have to be super rich even if you have to come here to visit.

"My dear students, please don't get out of the line." we hear someone talking using a mic. "A number of candidates have been cut off, a number of candidates have been transferred to the other branches of our school. The long assembly in front of me is filled with the chosen ones. Welcome to Konoha High."

The sound of clapping filled the big hall room. A woman who looks young even though she's rumoured to be really old in real is talking. She's supposed to be the principal of Konoha High. "I hope to see you bring glory to our school and maintain privilege. This school is different from any other school in the country. We don't tolerate indiscipline and violence. We make the best out of the students."

"You passed all your hardships to get into this school and that is rather admirable but you can't just stop here. This school is a battlefield. This school which is built hundred of years ago created geniuses who have been ruling the world for years. Dear chosen ones, You have to maintain this trend otherwise you will have to stay behind as a hindrance."

She's giving her speech standing above everyone like she's the queen in this hallroom. Her speech ends with another minute of the students clapping. So this is what it feels like to be in a prestigious school. Mom, dad, I did it.

One of the teachers who were in charge of showing us our dorm rooms handed us a card and a map of the whole building so that we don't get lost into it. He says witnessing me panicking about finding my room,"If you need help to find your room, all you have to do is to ask me."

I look up nervously and tell him,"How can I do that? Sensei looks busy." The teacher chuckles. He says,"I may look busy but I can't do anything against it if a fellow student asks me for any help. You students are paying a fortune, of course we'll give the best service."

I tell him hesitantly,"I'm here on scholarship sensei." His eyes grow wider. He says looking surprised,"That's even better! One in a thousand gets the chance to come here like you did. I'm sure you are a genius. Follow me."

The teacher leads me after he took a look on my card. He surely doesn't need this map to find my dorm room. After getting out of the main hall, we head to the dormitory. This place is huge. Of course the tution fee would be too much.

He took me to my room and currently we both are standing in front of the closed door. I thank him smilingly,"Thank you sensei. How can I repay you?" The teacher smiles. He says ruffling my hair in a friendly manner,"No need my dear student. I still don't know your name."

I tell him,"It's Naruto Uzumaki" The teacher says,"That's a nice name. Call me Iruka sensei. You'll find me in infirmary if you need my help." I see him turning his back taking a turn. So he's a school nurse.

The cafeteria is so big. Everyone is in a circle except for me. I still couldn't make any friend with this timid nature of mine. I start to play with my chopsticks. My eyes are itchy with the contact lenses I'm wearing.
