Himawari placed a dango in her mouth. Her head rested on her left hand as the dango was in her right. She seemed like she was thinking about something.
"Hima-chan, is everything okay?" her best friend, Itomaki Yuina, inquired.
"Oh, yeah. I was just..." Himawari straightened herself as she stared into her lap. That girl... She looked like Onii-chan. But she had hair like Sumire-chan. Speaking of which, I wonder what ever happened to her. She was like the older sister I never had...
"Hima-chan, you sure you're alright?" Yuina inquired.
Himawari smiled softly and nodded. "Yup!"
Yuina sighed then a soft smile was brought to her features. "I'm meeting up with Ehou-kun. I'll see you later, though?" Yuina inquired, standing up.
"Yeah. Enjoy your date," Himawari smirked, making Yuina blush.
"Shut up!" she shouted at her best friend and teammate.
"Bye, Yuina-chan! Have fun~!" Himawari said, smirking wider.
"H-H-Hima-chan!"

Hanasita, Suzuka and Suzuki all arrived to their temporary house, expecting to be murdered by their own parents, especially Hanasita's. Sumire could be terrifying when mad.
They stopped in front of the house. Hanasita raised her hand to the door knob, but it suddenly flung open and it revealed Sumire. She had her arms crossed under her chest, her face showed pure anger. Upon seeing her daughter and teammates, her expression suddenly went into one of shock and she removed her hands and bent down to Hanasita's hight.
"My! What the hell happened!?" she exclaimed, checking for bruises.
"Um... We're really sorry, Sumire-san. But we were training with Himawari-san and lost track of time and got all dirty," Suzuki explained gently.
"Eh? Himawari?"
"Uh-huh! She's this really nice lady with the Byakugan! She was also from the Uzumaki clan!" Hanasita said excitedly.
"Oh? Is that so...?" Sumire murmured. She knew exactly who Himawari was. She was like a little sister to her, after all.
"Mommy?" Hanasita poked Sumire's cheek.
"Come inside. Dinner's ready. The first exam starts tomorrow," Sumire said, standing up and putting on a fake smile. The girls nodded and headed inside.

Hanasita, Suzuka, and Suzuki — along with some unknown Genin from different villages — crowed at the Academy. Some looked nervous, some looked confident, and some looked indifferent. Suzuka and Suzuki held each other close as they awaited their proctor. Hanasita observed the competition.
"Welcome, everybody!" a cheerfully voice filled the quiet atmosphere. Everyone turned to who was talking.
"Hima-chan?" Hanasita murmured as she exchanged looks with her teammates.
"I'm Uzumaki Himawari. I'll be your proctor for the first exam — a written test. Now, allow me to explain the rules," Himawari began.
After finishing explained, Hanasita narrowed her eyes. It almost sounds like they want us to cheat.
"Hana-chan, are you sure we're ready for this?" Suzuki inquired shyly.
"Of course. Remember, we can't loose. Yuri-Sensei and our parents are counting on us,@ Hanasita said as they all headed inside one of the Academy rooms.
Then, the test began. Suzuka managed to get in contact with the other two via her Kekkei Genkai, Crystal Style. Hanasita wrote the answers down, considering she was smarter than most people in this room, and her teammates copied. Other people, too, tried cheating. Some got caught, some didn't.
Finally, after 50 hours (according to Hanasita), the test was over. Hanasita and her teammates headed out and headed home. She was excited to know if she passed the first exam or not, but she was also a little nervous at the same time.
"We're totally going to pass. But if we don't, then I'm blaming it on you, Hana-chan," Suzuka said, placing her hands behind her head.
"What!? My fault!?" Hanasita shouted.
"I mean, we did copy off of you," Suzuka pointed out.
"Guys, calm down!" Suzuki interrupted.
"Congratulations!" Himawari shouted, running over to them.
"I didn't know you were the proctor, Hima-chan," Hanasita said.
Himawari winked. "Sorry I lied to you. But I looked over your tests first, and congratulations! You pass!" she exclaimed. "I wanted to be the one to tell you."
"Eh!? Really!?" Suzuka shouted .
"So we're moving on to the next round?" Suzuki said with a soft smile.
"Yup! I can even help you train," Himawari suggested.
"Yes please!" Suzuka exclaimed.
"Who's the next proctor?" Hanasita inquired, making the young woman wink again.
"You'll find out soon enough," the dark blue haired beauty said.
Hanasita sighed in annoyance. "It would be useful to know — and what the test is, too," she murmured.
Himawari clasped her hands together. "Alright! Let's start training!"
"Now? I used all three of my brain cells on that test. I need a nap," Suzuka said.
"All you did was copy off of me," Hanasita interjected.
"Shut up!" Suzuka shouted.
Himawari smiled gently. Those two reminded her of her older brother and Kawaki. Suzuki reminded her of herself, and a little bit of Sumire.
"Oh, Hanasita-chan, I have a question," Himaaari said as they began heading to the training grounds.
"Yeah..."
"Who's your parents?" Himawari inquired. Suzuki and Suzuka looked between the two. They knew about Hanasita's family history; it was a touchy subject for her.
"I dunno my dad... But my mom's always been there..." she spoke softly.
"Ah! You don't have to tell me if you don't want to! Sorry for being pushy!" Himawari said. Hanasita smiled goofily at her, making her eyes widen.
Onii-chan?
