-3rd POV-

[Name] had trained the whole day and therefore didn't notice how her brother had been home hours before her. [Name] was worse than Sasuke when it came to training. It even seemed like that she had received a little more chakra than him... that was a minor thing she noticed while observing him train.

The next day [Name] stood in front of her sensei, who was sitting in between  two accompanying persons. Because the (h/c)-haired girl didn't care about them she didn't bother asking for their names—well excluding the name of her sensei which she knew anyway.

The test was easy. Just like it had been said before, all you had to perform was the Bunshin no jutsu. To prove that [Name] was strong, she even created five of them and had them—except for one—transformed into herself and the fifth clone was transferred into a tall man who had long spiky hair, two marks on his face and wore a dark purple with black patterned kimono. Hm, [Name] didn't knew why she transformed into that unknown man but something deep inside her told her she would soon get to know this man. Anyways Iruka didn't expect that and gave her the headband.

Satisfied with that, [Name] walked out of the room and waited outside for her brother. He too came out after a few minutes and wore the headband on his forehead.

So far [Name] hadn't decided where she would put it. After all, it didn't really matter to her whether she had such a headband because in her mind—to kill Itachi she doesn't need a ninja headband and only needs to become strong.

"I'm going to train," Sasuke said after he saw several genin speaking to their parents and showing off their ninja headbands. This was something that [Name] didn't like to see. Happy children who had their parents with them and congratulated them. Something Sasuke and [Name] would never have again.

Just when [Name] had turned away from these people she saw a familiar blonde who had sat on this place too many times.

Naruto Uzumaki who was sitting on his swing with his head low. Humiliated by the people who wanted to get rid of him. Ignored because he had a strong Bijuu inside him that once attacked the village.

A story that was known and everyone learned to fear, however [Name] wasn't afraid of him, in fact, she envied him... a lot.

Naruto never gave up on his dream of becoming Hokage, even though everyone avoids him. [Name] admired him for his will in not wanting to give up his motivation. She wondered where he got this trait from. Maybe from his mother... or his father?

[Name] watched him ever since she and sasuke lost everything, but despite his ability to never give up, he—now—sat vulnerable on that swing. Without a headband that everyone in their year had worn. Hm, he probably hadn't managed to create a decent clone, [Name] thought.

[Name] actually debated on approaching him but she couldn't. She couldn't because she doesn't need anyone who stands in her way of killing Itachi that includes him. So [Name] had no choice but to let Naruto Uzumaki go his own way. The path that would probably never be the same as hers. (Or would it? Nah, it wouldn't, lol.)
