SEIREN WATCHES how people crowd in front of Boruto, wanting to join him for lunch which the boy happily agrees with a big grin on his face. She smiled at the sight before burying her nose in the textbook once again, Sumire sighs in relief as she watches the interaction between the boys and couldn't be more relieved when the tension faded.

"Thank goodness..." Sumire said causing for ChoCho to smirk "Why're you so concerned?" she asked with a teasing grin, Sarada silently just wrote down her notes while copying some from her little sister's notes which are more detailed and neat compared to hers. "Because I'm the Class Rep!" Sumire cries out, not wanting ChoCho to tease her any further.

Denki smiles as he looks at Shikadai "I'm glad the air is cleared." he says, Shikadai sighs with closed eyes, clearly tired from the events and lectures that occur a while ago. "Although Mitarashi-sensei gave him an earful. She would have expelled him and Iwabe for pulling such a stunt like that, good thing Seiren interferes. Who would have thought she would do something like that when she's a quiet fluff ball?" he chuckled in amusement, remembering how Seiren was a stuttering mess in the faculty hall.

"Seiren has a special place on teachers, huh?" Denki laughs earning an agreement hum from Shikadai. Seiren unconsciously grips her textbook when Inojin confronted a boy that somehow couldn't help but complain about how Boruto got away from trouble again, they all flinched when the door slides open with a loud thump.

"Iwabe?!" she heard one of her classmates exclaim in surprise, everyone turns at him as he walks through the room with confidence, he walks down the chair, looking over Boruto who held his smirk "Hey." Iwabe cooly greeted before sitting down on his seat above Boruto. "You're here, Iwabe," Boruto says in amusement, crossing his arms with a grin.

The door slides open, and Sumire immediately stood up "Stand!" she said, and everyone did as they were told. Once they all were on their feet, Shino walks in "Bow!" at her call, everyone bowed their heads toward their teacher and he bowed back.

ONTO the next day, Seiren watches in horror as a shuriken flew past her causing her to flinch. Shino has just advised them to be extra careful with their shuriken throw as most students were nonetheless newbies. Shino yelped when a shuriken also flew past his face, he quickly body flickered in a safe distance as he watches the kids throw shuriken at the target yet it was thrown everywhere besides the target hanging.

"No one's listening.." The teacher muttered to himself with a sweatdrop. Seiren cautiously held her shuriken between her fingertips, glancing over the rest of the people her age, throwing it with no care yet she sees Akane cockily throw hers, hitting the outer circle of the red target. Akane flips her hair with confidence with her friends complimenting her, which seemed to boost her ego to the highest level. Even if, she has hit the red mark at the center.

The girl sighs, focusing on her target without noticing the gaze of others who have observed her every move. With her hair moving with the wind that passes, she quickly threw the steeled weapon in a swift motion, three shuriken hits and pierced through the red-painted circle inside the target.
