Namikaze Naoki || Uchiha Itachi

Chapter 10

Naoki passed the academy. Today the ones who passed were summoned to the academy to be put into teams. She touched her head protector and smiled thinking of how much She had to go through to get it..

~flashback~

"The graduation exam will be bunshin no jutsu" iruka announced

... out.. of.. all.. the.. things.. BUNSHIN NO JUTSU?! Why?! That's the only one I have trouble with.. I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHY?! I mean I can use a freaking S-rank jutsu but noo~ what I need to be able to do is a stupid bunshin no jutsu -.-she complained.. of course not out loud or with anyone..

Naoki already failed twice, only because the final exam test was always the bunshin no jutsu..

She was called to the room and She was determined to pass this time.. well She had hope.. but that hope crushed into little pieces when the clone came out..

A clone came out but it was very sloppy one and it couldn't even support itself and fell like an empty sack on the floor..

... at least I made a clone? She reasoned with herself

"FAIL!" Iruka told her and sighed

Naoki looked down.. She knew this scene too well..

"Well iruka its her third time, we could let her pass since she did make a clone appear" mizuki said looking apologetic

Iruka sighed

"We can't.. everyone else can already make 3 and naoki only one and it's not even an useful.. I can't pass her"

The girl who failed walked out the examination room.. naoki understood Iruka's judgement on it.. she couldn't do the most basic jutsus resulting to fail.. she just had to try harder next time..

Naoki sat on the swing that hanged from the tree in front of the academy. At the moment she was the only one who failed.. and the parents around the academy apparently had to talk about it..

they need another hobby... She thought

Soon her brother came out, he didn't wear a head protector so naoki wondered if he passed.. she had a feeling he did..

"Nii, did you pass?" Naoki asked when Naruto was close enough

"Yeah, everyone was so surprised.." he said showing the head protector that he kept in his pockets

"Of course they were.. people only see what they want, which is failure and clumsiness.. and when they finally see something other than that.. well they'll be shocked.." naoki sighed

"But never mind that. Did you pass?

"What do you think? Hahah..." naoki smiled while laughing bitterly

"Well, let's not get to depressed about it.. remember kaa-chan's words?" Naruto said

"Remember that everyone has things there good at and things they're not.. so don't get to depressed when you can't do something." Naoki said

"Exactly! So just aim towards the next exams!" Naruto cheered and naoki nodded in response

Naoki jumped off the swing and walked home together with naruto. On the way home They came across mizuki.

"Naoki.. can I speak with you for a second.." mizuki asked

Naoki looked at naruto
