Graduation

"Awwwww you're so cute I wanna bring you home with me" I squealed, squeezing the kitten too hard. It leapt from me and ran away mewling.

"Sora! You were meant to keep look out. Iruka sensei is two seconds away" shouted Naruto. It has been two months since I came to this world and, I love it. Well sure I hate a certain person in class and I miss Ash and my mum but other than that nothing else.

Naruto is my best friend and we have grown very close in these past two months. I found out that the apartment next to mine is his. So I'm usually the one who has to wake him up.

"What?! Oh shit we need to run now" I cried, scrambling to my feet.

"NNNNAAARRRUUTTTOOO!! SSSOOORRRAAA" came a scream behind us.

We ran as fast as we could until we stopped. Hiding behind a cloth we giggled. "That sure fooled him" whisper shouted Naruto.

"Oh really" said a voice. We shakily pulled down the cloth and yelled as Iruka tied us up and took us to the academy.

"I'm at the end of my rope with you two. You've both failed the exam twice and you act as if you don't even care. Because you missed the transformation jutsu the whole class will be doing it again" shouted Iruka, ignoring the complaints of the other students.

We lined up in front of him, half the students grumbling. I was beside Naruto and I winked at him. We both had a plan.

"Sakura Haruno here. Transform" cried Sakura. She made a perfect copy of Iruka and went back into line. "Did you see that Sasuke?" She cried. Don't get me wrong I like Sakura she's a great friend, but I hate it when she goes all lovey dovey for Sasuke.

Said Duckass stepped forward and again, completed the jutsu perfectly. I stepped forward and made a hand sign.

"Transform" I cried. A poof of smoke surrounded me and a cat emerged. "Mew" I said using my cutsie cat voice.

"Awwwwwwweeee" shrieked half the girls.

"Ahem" said Iruka sensei. I turned back as he told me that it was not a relevant transformation.

"It is too. I saw that cat just this morning" I retorted. He sighed not wanting to argue with my love of cats. Naruto as per usual did his sexy Justu.

I rolled around on the floor as he went back to his original look, clutching my stomach in laughter.

The next day was graduation

The next day was graduation. I awoke not feeling the best and got dressed. I left my apartment and locked it before turning towards Narutos.

A whole cacophony of sounds were coming out of his window. Shouts, bangs, clangs you name it. All were rushing to get out of the apartment. I knocked and suddenly the noises stopped. The door opened to show a very bedraggled Naruto.

"Hey Sora. I'm not ready yet. Why don't you go ahead of me?" He said.

"Sure" I yawned and turned to walk away. "Don't be late" I shouted over my shoulder.

I arrived at the academy in good time, surprised to see that Naruto was there before me. I sat beside him and smiled, my nervousness kicking in.
'Calm down it's just another exam. You've gone through loads of these' I said to myself.

"Sora Daniels" called Iruka. I jumped from my seat and followed, smiling at Narutos encouraging cries.

In the room, Iruka and another Sensei with grey hair stood behind a table covered with headbands.

"Alright Sora, to pass this test you will need to make three clones, minimum I two" Iruka told me.

I nodded and made the handsigns, my anxiety taking hold as my hands shook.
"C-clone jutsu" I cried, infusing my chakra. Two clones appeared beside me and poofed away.

"Well done Sora you pass" Iruka said, handing me a headband. I smiled and ran out of the building, but stopped short when I realised I couldn't tell anyone. Mum wasn't here, nor was Ash. Naruto was still in the academy and I didn't have any other friends.

Tearing up I suddenly ran for the forest, jumping from tree to tree until I came to a clearing. I sat behind a tree and took out my phone, going onto spotify and playing Shaun Mendes' song stitches.

I put it on replay and let the music flow through me, my tears rolling down my cheeks. I stayed sitting until I heard a giggle behind me. I swivelled and looked behind me. Naruto sat, clutching a huge scroll, smiling like an idiot.

"Naruto what are you doing?" I asked him, wiping my tears.
"Ah oh, Sora it's just you. Mizuki sensei told me that if I could learn one of these jutsus I could graduate from the academy. Now what's the first one. No! Clone Jutsu that's my worst" he shouted.

I peeked over his shoulder and saw which one he wanted to learn.
"How about I help you. I'll learn it and then teach it to you in the simplest way possible" I told him. He agreed and I memorised the signs and got to work perfecting it.

An hour later, Naruto was able to make 10 clones, then 50, the a hundred. It wasn't until Iruka sensei found him that things got out of hand.

"Naruto give that back now. You are in deep trouble mister for stealing from the Hokage" Iruka said.

"Naruto?!" I shouted at him. Mizuki sensei arrived and attacked Naruto. I leapt in front of him and took the Kunai.

"SORA" he shouted.
"In fine" I called back, as Iruka blocked the next attack. Naruto finally ran and Iruka went after him.
'Fine. Don't check wether I'm ok' I thought as I healed myself.

Around 20 minutes later the two of them came back, Iruka without his headband holding Narutos googles but Naruto had his head band instead.

"Can I go home now? I want some sleep before tomorrow" I told them heaving myself up. They nodded and I waved goodbye and turned, only to fall but be caught by Naruto.

"Thanks" I told him as we walked towards my apartment.
