The Five Nations Ninja Academy Gaara x Reader Naruto Modern School world

We Won?!

[y/n] POV

~~

How am I supposed to defeat a TRUE UCHIHA PRODIGY?! Okay calm down, [y/n], I can do this, I have to win because I know the mom is watching and I can't let her down. Suddenly, Itachi started throwing more balls at my direction but I dodged it since I'm using my Sharingan to predict where the ball is heading. I used the balls that I controlled and tried to get Itachi at all directions. But he dodged them and avoided them as expected.

How am I supposed to get him? I'm not as talented or skillful as the well known Uchiha Prodigy "Itachi Uchiha" who mastered his Sharingan by the age of eight! But... I did awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan just now but I'm not sure of it's capabilities. Let me try it.

"Mangekyou Sharingan," I said and I felt a tingle in my head meaning I am using it.

Suddenly, I felt some rapid change, as soon as Itachi threw a ball, everything turned black and white- Basically no colours and everything stopped. I moved around and almost everything has stopped. I walked towards Itachi who's still at a scene where he just threw the ball. I touched the ball that is floating in mid-air, grabbed it and hit Itachi then everything went back to normal again... Is this my power of my Mangekyou Sharingan?

Everything went back to normal and everyone was in silence, even Itachi was looking at me weird, with his brows furrowed and his Sharingan eyes turned back to onyx ones.

"How did you do that?" he asked.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"I'll talk to you later," he said as he left and went with the other classmates.

Suddenly, I felt my eyes hurt, I closed and opened it again and Gaara defeated Deidara. The crowd cheered and Principal Tsunade took the mic and said, "Congratulations! First time ever, the superior class has been defeated!"

"Well played to all the students that participated!" she exclaimed as the gymnasium sounds erupted rapidly with noises, cheerings and chatterings. Everyone else gathered around me and made high fives and some just asked how I did what I did to Itachi. I have no clue HOW I did it but I just smiled. Suddenly, many other students came up to me- Total strangers saying so many stuff. I made hand sign and teleported out of the gym. Phew...

Suddenly, two familiar figures with Anbu masks came up to me, one which I know is my mother held both my shoulders and said, "How did you do that?"

"I've been getting the same question, but my answer is simple, I JUST did it," I replied.

She released her hands off my shoulder then hugged me, she was a little taller- Of course because she's my mom. I felt tears escaping through my eyes because it's a sign that I've made her proud. She never hugged me like this before so I just hugged her back. She released me afterwards.

"I think I was wrong about you, dear, I think you're ready," she said with her soft motherly voice.

I bit my lip, trying to hold in a laugh. You know the feeling when you're just so happy you feel like laughing? Maybe it's just me but I feel the joy in my heart to hear my mom say that.

"You think?" I joked with a chuckle.

"We'll talk more about this some other time," she said.

I nodded and said, "Do you mind if I go somewhere today?"

"Where?" she asked with a serious voice.

I shrugged. "Just somewhere special because it's someone's birthday," I said.

"Hm, who's this person exactly?" she asked.

"Gaara," I said softly.

Mom hesitated and said, "It's his birthday?" I nodded and placed my hands behind my back. "So... Can I?" I asked.

"Just this once, just let him be alright?" she asked.

What does she mean by "Let him be"? Anyways, I nodded slowly and before I could speak, crowds of people ran towards my direction. I looked back, seeing my mother and the other Anbu gone. I quickly ran to the staircase and to my classroom, I panted as I reached there.

I saw most of my classmates already sitting there and most of them came to me and congratulated me. I thanked them and sat on my seat.

Kurenai-Sensei went in with a broad smile and said, "Congratulations to all you for doing an excellent job at the tournament, and to the students who managed to survive till the end to defeat the seniors." I heard my name mostly and applause.

"Alright, so tomorrow is your big day, the preliminary exams to determine which class you will be placed in, the battle rounds are in the afternoon but however you will be assigned in teams and it will be later on explained tomorrow, but for now you may rest for the next little while, talk amongst yourselves until you're dismissed," she said.

I talked to Hinata and a few other people until we were dismissed. As I went to through the hallway, almost everyone kept greeting me with my name. It seems that I'm popular now that everyone know what I did. I reached my locker and to my surprise, it's full of papers sticked onto it saying "Congrats" and many other stuff written all over it. I opened it with a few envelopes scattered.

I picked one up saying it's from a secret admirer. I took all of the envelopes and placed it in my bag. I wanted to get rid of the stuff sticked on my locker but almost everyone was staring at me at all directions. So I quickly wiggled my way through the hallway full of students until I felt someone grabbed my hand. I looked back seeing a pair of Byakugan eyes staring into my soul.

"Neji?" I said.

"Teleport us outside," he said.

I nodded, made a jutsu and we teleported outside of the school. "You did well today, my delicate flower," he said. I made a cheeky smile and said, "You too, mister long hair." We chuckled.

"Since you did so well today, what about I treat you to the special restaurant we went last time," he said as he held my other hand as he stared at me. I looked down, feeling my cheeks burning up, I hope I'm not blushing like crazy.

"I'd love to but the thing is... I have other plans to... Do... Maybe tomorrow or in the weekend perhaps?" I asked, still looking down.

Suddenly, he touched my chin and lifted my head up, he chuckled. "Stop it!" I said as I looked down again.

"Why are you blushing, [y/n]?" he asked childishly.

I pursed my lips, trying to think of another comeback. "Uh... Why are you asking on a DATE?" I asked with a smirk and my hand on my hip.

He was rather surprised and said, "I wasn't, I was just... UH, giving you a treat for helping our class win, that's all." He crossed his arms as his cheeks started going red.

"SURE, anyways, see you tomorrow, mister long hair," I chuckled and waved.

He stared at me for a second and his cheeks became redder, and turned away, still with his arms crossed. I walked around, hopefully finding Gaara and his siblings. Until I saw a redhead so I quickly went to him and touched his shoulder.

"Hey, Gaara, I-" I stopped to realize that it was the Rinnegan user with a group of people about his height and they looked rather intimidating. How embarrassing...
