Naruto pov -age 10 so he's really naive so beware of the dumbness ×××
I hurried downstairs just in time for breakfast. I sat on the floor between the kitchen and the dining room. Watching mom, dad, and Menma eat eggs on toast and bacon. They all look so happy. Even though I'm not there. But that doesn't matter at least I'm not outisde."Menma how are you liking school?" Mom asked. "Oh it's alright. I made some friends the other day." he said blushing. "Really who?" Dad asked suddenly interested. "Well there's Kiba and Shikamaru and Sasuke." Sasuke! He's friends with Sasuke. But Sasuke doesn't talk to anybody! He hates everyone and everything! Well except for tomatoes but I think that's in his blood.
Everyone at school is cool I guess. I mean they don't like me and don't talk to me well Choji does. But I think that's only because he gets bullied too. Sakura is annoying but she doesn't bother me much except when I look at Sasuke or sit next to Sasuke or talk to Sasuke. So we're cool I think. Menma ignores me which is completly normal. He mom and dad never really said anything to me ever. It makes me wonder who nursed me as a baby. Mom wouldn't have so maybe.............. Nah it had to be mom no one else would.
"Menma do you want us to walk you to school today?" mom asked getting up. He nodded and tied up his shoes. Dad grabbed his keys and locked the door behind him as they left.
Yess! I quickly grabbed any left- overs from their plates and ran upstairs into the attic. I have a whole piece of bacon and 2 pieces of toast and yes some egg whites. Score! It's been awhile since I've eaten a full meal like this. I should get going. Or else Iruka sensei will scold me in front of the whole class! I climbed out my window and landed in the rose bush. Oh well I'm the only one who takes care if it. I raced towards the academy to avoid any beatings. But I have the worst luck in the world and I tripped. Over a shoe?
A man grabbed me by the collar before I could move and slammed me to the ground. "Well well well. Lookie what we got here.....The village's disgrasssse. You don't seem to understand your place here. We oughta give you a lesson" he snarled and three large men came out from the shadows. "Well sir I will get a lesson but from Iruka sensei not you. You see I'm on my way to school." I told him and showed him my ID. "They let little shits like you at the academy? People these days will let anybody in." he snarled slapped my face. "You've got quite a smart mouth there little fella." "Oh thank you sir" I said smiling. He slapped me again and one of the larger men stabbed something into the back of my head and dragged it across. "Ahh!" I screamed pushing him away. He laughed and threw the knife at the ground. They all advanced around me in a circle.
The man who kept slapping me kept pounding my head in the wall when Iruka's voice came from out the alleyway. "Come on class keep up. We all want to see Shikamaru's shadow jutsu right? Here's the place with the most- hey what are you doing?" he yelled at the men and took out a kunai. The men scrambled away from me and I hide behind a crate. No way us anyone gonna see me like this. It'll ruin my reputation as a....as the um way to happy idiot.
"Hey come on out we wont hurt you." Iruka said slowly coming closer. The whole class caught up and they too came closer. "Go away!" I yelled. "I won't hurt you come on out." he coaxed. "No just go away and leave me alone. Please just go away!" I screeched banging my hands on the wall. "Woah woah woah easy there buddy. If you need space you got. I just need to know you're ok and who you are. Can you tell me that?" "I'm fine and my name is private now go away please sir." I whispered. He sighed and ushered the class away.
Thank god. Slowly I stood and ripped my shirt to use as a bandage. I wrapped it around my wound tenderly. "Pain pain go way, don't come any day" I sang softly. Well at least it's over but now I'm very very late for my lesson. I walked out stealthy and bolted to the academy. "I'm here Iruka sensei!" I shouted and he glared. "I can see that and you're late." the class laughed and threw paper balls at me."Settle down now children." he said and everyone got quiet. "Naruto sit next to Sasuke and be quiet." Oh no Sakura is gonna kill me! I sat down nervously as I felt numerous glares on my back.
"Hiya Sasuke!" I said grinning at him. He stopped writing and slowly turned my way. "Why are YOU talking to ME?" he asked quietly. "Oh right um sorry. I usually always say hi to the person next to me so... Nevermind I'm sorry." I stuttered and he rolled his eyes and looked away. "Baka". He.....talked to me! He finally acknowledged me!
"Class as you know we are here to become ninjas right? And one of the rules of being a ninja is to put away all emotions and continue the mission. So today we are going to practice that." Iruka sensei said standing up. "I need a volunteer please.....how about Sasuke." he said. Everyone turned to look at him and he glared at the floor. "Go on Sasuke no need to be shy!" I said to encourage him. "Hn" he walked up to Iruka and faced the class. He looks like he wants to die right now. But that's how he always looks. "Alright. So I'm going to tell you a story and see if any of your emotions come out. Ahem: There was a young girl named Himokyo Sari. She lived here in the village ten years ago. When she was a kid around your age she was always beat and neglected by her parents. She always had hate directed towards her and as she grew. She became to consume the hate. Everyday she would write 20 ways to make the village suffer and burn. She wanted it to collapse and leave no one alive. She wanted to kill them all. One day on her 20th birthday. A strange man came to the village. His name was Duzo Sumitomu. He was around her age and was looking for a wife. When he saw her he instantly fell in love but knowing she was 'demon child' he left her alone. Himokyo on the other hand kept trying to talk to him to meet him. He was the only one in the village who didn't hate her. But soon he began to hate her as well he saw her as the villagers did and for Himokyo that was the last straw. She figured everyone in the world must hate her so it was her duty to kill them all. So she did. After 3 years of fighting everyone was dead except for her. She had rid the world of hatred but now she was all alone. She never wanted to hurt anyone but she did. She was so filled with regret that everyday she would go to the top of the mountain and bury hundreds of people till she burried them all. The mountain grew and grew giving life to the entire world. One would think she was in the right all along but tell me Sasuke was she?" he said.
Sasuke glared and nodded his head. "Yes and No. Everyone in the story are a bunch of stupid shits. They-" "You fail." Iruka said cutting him off. "Sensei Sasuke is never wrong!" Sakura screeched and banged her hands on the table. "Never ever ever!" Sensei sighed and raised a hand for silence. "Listen. Your answer is correct but your reasoning is incorrect. That will be tonights homework assignment figure out the reason Sasuke was correct and wrong." He said wisely. Woah! I thought Sasuke was right but Iruka just blew my mind. It's like he's saying two wrongs don't make a right but a very twisted version! Gaah I'm thinking too hard my head itches(reference from wandering son). Sasuke walked over pissed.
"Don't worry Sasuke. I thought your answer was you." I said. "How does that even make sense?" he grumbled. "It was your opinion and opinions can't be wrong." I said grinning happily. "Hn" he flashed me a small small smile before walking out. He smiled at me gaaaah!
