White Lies

CHAPTER 2

1st Point of View - Mirai

"Alright, why don't you introduce yourselves one at a time?" Our sensei says lazily.

We sat in a line, while our Sensei sat in front of us, on the roof railing.
"Introduce ourselves? What are we supposed to say?" Sakura questions.

"Things you like. Things you hate. Dreams for the future. Hobbies. Things like that." He finishes, crossing his arms.

"Why don't you tell us stuff first? I mean, before we talk, tell us about you, so we can see how it's supposed to work." Naruto asks.

"Me?" Their sensei points at himself. "I'm Kakashi Hatake. Things I like and things I hate... I don't feel like telling you that." 

"Huh?" Naruto and Sakura both speak.

"My dreams for the future... Never really thought about it. As for hobbies, I have lots of hobbies."

Why is he being so secretive? "That was totally useless... All he really told us is his name." Sakura grumbles, Naruto and I hum in agreement.

"You on the right, you first." We all turn to Naruto, waiting for him to speak. 

"Believe it! I'm Naruto Uzumaki. I like instant ramen in a cup and I really like the Iruka Sensei got me at the Ichiraku Noodle Shop. But I hate the three minutes you have to wait after you pour the water in the ramen cup. My hobby is eating different kinds of ramen and comparing them. And my future dream is... to be the greatest Hokage! Then the whole village will stop disrespecting me and start treating me like I'm somebody, somebody important!!"

I see Kakashi-Sensei sweatdrop at Naruto's repetitively long speech. "Alright, Next."

"My name is Mirai Makoto. I like my family and trying out new foods! I hate liars and disloyal people. My hobbies are training and reading. My dream for the future is to be a great ninja, as strong as my brother!" I say. 

My brother is 5 years older than me and has been in the Anbu for 3 years now. He practically raises me, when he isn't on a mission, since our parents are undercover in a different nation, and have been for 2 years. 

"Okay, you." Kakashi-Sensei seems to care less about my introduction, and continues down the line with Sakura. 

"I'm Sakura Haruno. What I like.. I mean the person I like is..." She looked at Sasuke and giggles. "My hobby is..uh..." She giggles again, "And my dream for the future is..." She squeals. 

She made it apparently obvious what her interest was. Well, more, who her interest was. 

Another sweatdrop appears on Kakashi-Sensei's head. "And what do you hate..?" 

"Naruto!" Sakura yells. 

I take a glance at Naruto and see him cry. 

"Last one.." Kakashi-Sensei points to Sasuke.

"My name.. is Sasuke Uchiha. I hate a lot of things, and I don't particularly like anything. What I have is not a dream, because I will make it a reality.. I'm going to restore my clan and destroy a certain someone." Sasuke broods. 

Everyone stares at Sasuke, the silence was loud. I don't want to be whoever he is trying to destroy.. 

"Good. You're each unique and you have your own ideas. We'll have our first mission tomorrow." Kakashi-Sensei thankfully breaks the silence. 

"What kind of mission are we going to have?!" Naruto asks, excited for what our Sensei has planned for us. 

I lean a bit closer, paying closer attention to what he has to say.
