A familiar sight...

A building surrounded by a forest with several classrooms...

Kids flocking everywhere here and there...

It wasn't an ordinary place..

The Shinobi Academy...

The only school for young shinobi..

The first step to become genin...

I first took the entrance exam when I 5....

I failed.

I took it again when I was six...

I failed again.

Why exactly?

Although I wasn't an astronomical genius I trained enough with Ojii-chan to do the acceptable...

I wasn't dumb either.

But there was only one part of it that always pulled me down.

Medical Evaluation ...

It wasn't that I was sick. I didn't have that weak of a body either...

...

That morning , I went to the Shinobi Academy for the last time.

My third try.

My last...

I was probably older than most of the other should be first year academy students but that didn't matter..

Taking it for the third time...at first everything was the same...

Physical testing..

Written exams...

I couldn't do perfectly but I was decent enough not to fail...

I gazed again at the familiar white office. Then entered a woman with brown hair.

She wore her white coat proudly with a Konoha headband on her neck.

"Umm...hello...Sachiko-san.."(Reiko)

I said nervously to the medic-nin, Sachiko-san. The first one who told me about my defective chakra.

"You're here again, Reiko-chan?"(Sachiko)

"Umm, I guess so. I was hoping my chakra perhaps could've gotten a bit better?..."(Reiko)

I hear her sigh in exasperation.

"You're chakra doesn't grow with your body. There isn't much to spare. I hate to say it again but I hardly doubt you could be a shinobi. Chakra is something unfortunately to be born with....you barely even have enough for a passable fail..."(Sachiko)

"Yeah, I know.."(Reiko-chan)

I couldn't help but clench my fists nails marring my palms slightly red.

"Don't worry..this...is the last time. I know that I likely can't be shinobi. Call it a goodbye..I guess if likely this doesn't work out I'll start learning oto-san's dumpling recipes."(Reiko)

"Haaa....why do you even want to be one so badly... "(Sachiko)

The medic-nin muttered under her breath as she scurried to get her tools.

"It's the last time..I promise...sorry for bothering you, Sachiko-san. I just wanna make it clear for Ojii-chan as well that there aren't any hopes. I guess I've come to my senses..."(Reiko)

Suddenly, I felt a warm hand on my shoulder. I looked to be greeted by those warm grey eyes with a slight sigh.

"Look there other paths aside from being a shinobi. Don't beat yourself up. Anyhow, alright ready. You know the drill."(Sachiko)
