"We are preparing for your trip to train with the sannins." Her eyes practically bawled out of her head. Her red-headed mother said, holding her leather backpack.
"But mom, I thought I get to train with them after graduation. Dad told me that, y'know." Shina said, getting her backpack from her mother's grasp.
Kushina scratched the back of her neck. "I talked about your father about it. He said you will have to train with the sannins. I'm not trying to stop you, but training with them in this time is going to help you pass with flying colors at the academy. I know you want that, right? Plus the sannins are quite bored anyway, they haven't have a student in quite some time." Kushina chuckled.
"By the time you finish your nine-month training, you might as well probably known as the sannins' red riding hood."
"At least it's a nine-month training." Shina shrugged. Airama chuckled at the background, holding the baby Kyuubi.
"So! When will I get to leave?"
"Tomorrow, might as well start packing now and spend time with some friends you know. You'll also be going in an escort mission with you father's team." Kushina said, leaving the premises of Shina's bedroom.
"I'm too lazy to pack."
"HURRY UP, 'TTEBANE!"
《TIME SKIP》
Shina took a lot of time to pack, despite her long talks with Kurama and yells from her mother. She got the job done.
She ran to the training ground #33, hearing the silver dog and the onyx lamb fighting.
"Heh. You're just making excuses. Lame ones to be exact. Not everyday you get to help an old woman carrying groceries." Kakashi scolded the ebony-haired male, who was silently fuming in anger.
"YEAH RIGHT! I get to cross paths with a black cat everyday!" Obito yelled back with a scrunched nose, you could practically see the steam erupting out of his ears.
No one was able to calm the lamb and the dog. Rin was sick.
Minato rubbed his temples and sighed, "We'll the do the mission tomorrow."
That made Shina shrug and left the training grounds.
Airama's senseless chakra form following behind Shina. Shina felt her prescence, she wanted someone to come along anyways.
They walked through the black market. Mostly, black markets were filled with possesive, greedy, old men yelling out 'WANT SOME YOUNG CHILD?!'. There faces were obviously yelling out 'I'm eating you alive~'.
Instead, the place was filled with heart-warming faces, despite all the war that happened past the Konoha walls.
Shina walks through the streets, a few women beckoning her to buy their goods. She replied with a simple nod and went to her favorite thrift shop.
The curtain opened with a ring of a bell. Shina was the only customer available at the moment, she didn't mind, the sooner she finds something she likes, the sooner she leaves.
Shina walked through the counters and tables with interesting jewelries that sat on the table.
Her eye caught golden and silver keys. There were alot of them, each with an empty space on its keyholder.
"That's a good item for summoning souls." Airama pointed out.
Shina looked at her and asked, "What was your summoning item?"
Airama took out a necklace filled with white pearls and different symbols.
"Those are your summoning items?" Airama nodded at Shina's question.
"What's with the different symbol?"
"The designated symbol of the soul's name if he or she was the gate of the living and the dead."
Shina could only stare at the interesting necklace in awe. "So, do I have to make a contract with them?" Airama, again, nodded at the red-haired child.
"Though, once you're dead, you can't summon these souls. You can only guide the current wielder of the death reaper eyes."
"I judge those who'll go to Kami-sama and Jashin-sama?" Shina asked as she dangles the keys on her hands. Airama nodded.
"But we need to try to activate your second stage first in order to summon souls."
"Alright."
Shina took the keys and headed her way to the store clerk. The woman smiles at Shina as Shina places her keys on the table for her to buy. The woman's eyes glistened in delight.
"You got yourself a nice pick child." The woman said, putting soon-to-be Shina's keys in a small bag. "It's just keys." Shina stated as she grabbed a few ryos from her pocket, giving it to the woman. "Those are keys found in Kami-sama's altar, it said to give it to the Gate Keeper." Shina's eyes widen. "How do you know the Gate Keeper? Do you know her eyes as well?" The woman nodded. "I was simply a janitor of the altar and a messenger from Kami-sama. You might as well be Shina Miku Uchiha?"
The red-headed shook her head vigorously. "Namikaze."
"Oh! Right, Shina Miku Namikaze-Uchiha." The woman exclaimed. "Obaa-san, I'm still four. I'm not married yet."
"All wielders are those who have the Uchiha name. It's already obvious you will be married to an Uchiha."
Shina was blushing an array of red. She couldn't handle this information.
"I'll be going now Obaa-san, nice meeting you!"
The red riding hood disappeared in a flash.
