Naomi and Satsuki were seated in the classroom as they were both nervous and excited to see so many clan hairs and some civilian kids.
The assembly of students filled the room with voices, a whirlwind of energy blending excitement and nervousness.
Welcome, new students!" said Iruka Umino, the academy's beloved teacher. His voice boomed across the room, drawing everyone's attention.
Today marks the beginning of your journey to becoming shinobi! I expect all of you will give it your best!" Iruka said as everyone began cheering.
Naomi's mind wandered. She thought about how the academy will help her harness her lava to powers so she can be one step closer to become the hokage so the Uchiha clan can gain the respect they lost when the Kyuubi attack Konoha.
And speaking of the Kyuubi apparently Hiruzen had a suspicion when he didn't see the seal that contained the kyuubi on Naomi stomach so he had some hyuuga use their dojutsu and what they find greatly shocked the hokage and the Uchiha clan.
The Kyuubi which was supposed to be sealed inside Naomi wasn't there anymore as Hiruzen thought that either the Kyuubi merged with Naomi or Naomi lava powers literally burned the kyuubi to a crisp but whatever it was the Kyuubi was no longer alive.
Alright, let's get started with introductions!" Iruka announced. The students began to take turns introducing themselves, sharing their dreams and aspirations.
Naomi's heart raced at the thought of speaking in front of everyone.
What if they think I'm just a freak?" Naomi thought, her fingers flexing nervously. When Iruka gestured for her to take the floor, she took a deep breath and stood up.
Um, hi! I'm Naomi Uzumaki Uchiha! I want to be the Hokage one day!" Her voice was filled with determination, and the room went quiet.
And I have... lava powers!" Naomi said as a few whispers echoed through her peers. Some children stared wide-eyed, while others murmured with disbelief.
Ino leaned over to Shikamaru and whispered, "I wonder how she'll control that in class."
Naomi felt more heat rising from her embarrassment but pressed on, her voice firm.
I know some of you think that's weird, but I want to show everyone how cool it can be! Just wait—you'll see!" Naomi said as she spun on her heels, trying to shake off her nerves as her fire powers flickered eagerly in the background.
Excellent job, Naomi! It's great to see such passion," Iruka smiled, breaking the tension. "Next!"
As the introductions continued, Naomi's initial apprehension began to melt away like a glacier under the sun.
She realized that whether they were amazed, skeptical, or simply curious, their reactions were just stepping stones for her journey. She could be proud of her unique abilities.
