"Academy? Why do I need that sensai?" The young brown haired female asked as she tilted her head slightly, confusion filled her light grey eyes as she looked towards her superior, the one known as one of the legendary sanin, Orochimaru.
"Your training with me is done for now, and the experiment of the byakugan is nearly accomplished." Orochimaru stated in his usual calm tone, before placing a hand on top of the young females head.
"But what does that have to do with me going to the academy? You've already taught me the basics, the elements, and a couple jutsu sensai, basically all you need to become a shinobi." She exclaimed, crossing her arms as she huffed slightly, her cheeks puffing up while a slight emotion of annoyance filled her eyes.
"That's just it, I've only taught you a few. There is a lot more to become a shinobi, and there is many jutsu that we need to learn." He stated, while lifting his hand away from her head.
"We? But sensai, you are one of the legendary sanin! What do you have left to learn if you are one of the greatest!" She exclaimed, a small bit of excitement was left through out her voice.
He chuckled, looking over to the academy that was in front of both of them, watching as the hokage explained to the new students about the beginning of a shinobi.
"Even for me, there is a lot to learn. There is many jutsu that cannot be learned because of the lifespan of a human being." He stated, taking a glance at the now confused girl.
"What does that mean? You can't learn every jutsu in the world?" She mumbled in a questionable tone.
"Even if someone were to learn all the jutsu in this world, the human lifespan would get in the way. Once they are dead, the knowledge they had learned would die also." He explained, waiting in silence for the young child to comprehend his statement.
After a moment or two of her staring at her feet, she finally mumbled out. "I see..." She looked up towards Orochimaru, giving a smile while uttering. "I see now, or I don't but I get what you mean."
She let out a laugh, as Orochimaru's chuckle fallowed shortly behind. "Even though you are blind, you sure know how to make the best of it."
"What's the point of weeping about eye sight, right? I'm still alive, which gives me more confidence on the experiment sensai." She let out a cheeky smile while pointing at her light grey eyes, which once used to be the exact same colour of her hair.
"If that is so, I will leave you here to begin more on your training." Orochimaru stated.
The six year old girl gave a nod. "I'll see you some other time, then?" A smile came onto her face, while she waved at her sensei who began to leave.
"Yes, some other time."

"Now then, please introduce yourself and tell everyone your dream for the future." The older teacher stated while he looked over the new students, who looked either nervous or confused.
Looking around the room at the unknown faces of children that are the same age as herself, she knew that neither of them could just go up in front of a bunch of strangers and tell them their dreams. She listened to the other students as they wondered what to do.
