The Story of Makki (under major editing)

Team 7 has four members?!

      With the sun being up now all, I did was take off my cloak and eate a couple slices of bread before walking back out of my empty apartment. I wondered how my brothers and sister were doing back in the sand village. Maybe I should write them a letter. No, that's foolish... I ran away years ago, I doubt they would even remember me. My thoughts were interrupted when a hand waved in front of my face. I stared at the blonde boy in front of me. "Makki we're gonna be late to the academy if you keep staring out like that." Naruto said calling me back to my senses. I shook my head clearing any remaining thoughts of my older siblings and instead gave a small smile to the whiskered boy. "We better get a move on then."

       He began grinning excitedly while I tied my headband loosely around my neck and looked at his having an uninterested face at the blue fabric that covered his head. On the inside I was curious as to how he got his ninja headband. As I was lost in thought, I wasn't looking where I was going and smacked right into something hard. Naruto tried to hold in the urge to laugh but failed miserably. His laughter was cut short when he caught me giving him a cold stare that seemed to shut him right up.

      I turned my attention to what I smacked into and was about to apologize until I saw that it was a person, a boy. He was pale, with long brunette hair pulled back at the bottom leaving only the ends to hang out at the other end of the hair tie. He wore bandages wrapped on both his right leg and arm with a tan-based coat that had straps over his coat zipper as well as shorts. His leaf headband had some sort of belt type under it and each end hung loosely by the sides of his face. His face. More importantly his eyes... they were blank. Pupilless. A barely noticeable purple color that were blank. Eyes that bore into someone's soul captivating them. Our faces were inches apart as I studied his face with squinted eyes.

     "Well...?" The boy crossed his arms staring at me and all I did was stare at his intriguing eyes. That is, until I was interrupted by a certain blonde that nudged me with his elbow. "Hi...?" I answered confused at what he wanted me to do. I soon realized what he wanted as he sighed and put his hands on my shoulders and quickly, yet with gentle hands, pushed me back a couple inches to where he had personal space. I was confused. First whiskers, now this guy who was being friendly, Well semi. "Ooh... Uhm. My sincerest apologies. I, as you could tell, was not paying attention and smacked into you." I awkwardly said and hesitated before slightly bowing. When I take a look at him from afar, he isn't that bad looking...

     The boy could probably tell I was not used to this kind of nature and couldn't help but feel like he took pity on me and accepted my apology with a nod. It wasn't long until I was pushed out if the way stumbling before catching myself and turning to look at Naruto,
Who was in front of the boy showing off his headband. "Hey! I got a headband, see!!" He seemed as though he didn't know the boy either and was just showing off. After internally facepalming myself, I punched Naruto in the arm because he pushed me. "OW!!" He yelled and turned looking at me with a small glare. "What?" I asked innocently. I swore there was a smirk on that boy's face after I said that. Naruto growled before turning his attention back to the now blank faced boy.

'That brat thinks he can growl at us and get away with it...? Tch.' A male voiced boomed in my head. A sudden pain arrived shortly after while Naruto made conversation with pupilless, and by conversation, I mean Naruto rambled in about becoming a genin and he probably listened out of pity. I started walking ahead to the academy grabbing the attention of the two males. "Hey Makki! Where ya goin?" Naruto asked. I didn't spare him a glance before replying, "To the academy. We're gonna be late for pictures." I grumbled slightly as the pain got heavier. Naruto jogged to catch up to me as the other boy stared for a moment seeming pretty confused. Naruto kept walking excitedly and pupilless... I could feel his gaze staring at the back of my head as I ran a hand through my hair feeling sweat drip down my cheek. He quickly turned and kept walking like nothing was happening and Naruto and I made it to the school to get pictures taken as well as finding out what classroom to go to.
