Reincarnated as Izumi Uchiha

9- Teams and meeting a certain Uchiha

Izumi's POV:

We're 7 now. I started sending a shadow clone to school when I noticed Itachi sent a shadow clone. After a few months, I received memories from my clone. My clone was held down by Itachi's fangirls and was slapped by their little leader. Ah crap. Then I went to the academy to see Itachi's clone disappearing into a puff of smoke. Soon, Itachi appeared from the forest he was training in. We were both allowed to go home while one of the senseis went to Minato to tell him about our shadow clone.

When my parents received the news, they were happy for me but at the same time, they weren't since I was going to officially experience the life of a shinobi. They don't know that I killed a small army of shinobis, they only know that I put 15 shinobis in a genjutsu during the war. "My baby girl is all grown up!" Mother shouted while father nodded, "I know you'll achieve great things." He said. They were both clearly hiding their sadness about it since being a shinobi means I won't be home often and I'll be seeing the cruel reality of it but I've already seen it. I didn't really get afraid of killing like others when they got their first kill. I knew I'll have to kill in the future so I was prepared for it and wasn't traumatized but I didn't like killing or the heavy smell of blood.

Welp, we're both going to graduate early and now I'm labeled as a prodigy as well. Now it was known to the village that the Uchiha clan is nurturing 3 prodigies. That being Shisui, Itachi and I. Itachi and I received our headband. Itachi got the usual navy blue headband while I requested for a black one. Now we were both moved up to the graduating class and today we were getting our teams. I didn't bother putting a genjutsu barrier over my byakugou seal because my headband already covered it. Itachi and I walked side by side towards the classroom and as soon as we went in, we were in the center of attention. There were lots of murmuring and pointing, probably because we were 7 in a classroom filled with 12 year olds. They probably think it's unfair for students at a way younger age gets to graduate early.

Well, that's how life is. Being a prodigy brings nothing but attention. Not only that, there were a bunch of boys and girls with heart eyes. Like seriously? We're both almost half your age! Fans wherever we go, so unfortunate. I sat down at one of the front seats with Itachi beside me. Now that I think about it, we both might get in a team together since the senseis might think we're most comfortable together. I sighed inaudibly while taking out of book to read then handed Itachi the second book that I published. Although I'm an anonymous author, the librarian who helped me publish the books liked it and there's a lot of people reading it right now and want the whole series. The book that I just gave to Itachi is the first one that's published right now.

Itachi's eyes widened and started reading immediately. Soon, after about 10 minutes, a sensei came in, announcing teams. "Team 2..." I perked up at this, knowing this is Itachi's team. "For Team 2, we have... Izumo Tenma, Inari Shinko, Uchiha Itachi and since there's another student, Uchiha Izumi will also be in this team." Just as I thought. The boys glared Tenma while the girls glared at Shinko. Can't they just leave us alone? Then I looked at Tenma, knowing he dies during one of our missions. Prevent or not? Then I see one of my feathers in his kunai pouch peaking out. I suppose I don't have to do much then although Obito still might kill him after the feather saves him. This is troubling.

I ignored the other teams that were being called on and just kept reading. I forgot who's the jounin sensei... oh well, I'll be finding out in a few minutes. People in jounin vests came in, calling for their teams and soon Team 2 was called. A man with short dark brown hair came in calling for us. We followed to him an empty training ground where we introduced ourselves.

"Alright, I'll start. My name is Minazuki Yuki. I like reading, training and sweets. I don't like arrogant, egoistical and rude people. My goal? I've achieved it. Passing off to you girl in maroon." He gestured to Shinko who went next. "I'm Inari Shinko. I like reading, drawing and sushi. I don't like rude people and bitter foods. As for my goals... haven't decided yet!" Yuki-sensei nodded then looked at Tenma. "I'm Izumo Tenma. I like my friends, family..." He trailed off while glancing at Shinko for a moment before looking back at us. "I don't like rude people and people who harms my family and friends. My goal is to become strong to protect my family and friends." I already knew that he wanted to become stronger than Itachi because he graduated early like me. Not only that Shinko developed a crush on Itachi as well.
