The Path of a Shinobi (Reader x various)

The Foundation Part 2

A loud bang on your door had startled you awake and you heard a voice on the other side, "Wake up already, it's time for training."

You slightly groaned before throwing the bed sheet off your body. You grabbed your cloak and fastened the button then grabbed your mask and placed it on your face. Before opening the door, you threw your hood over your hair then walked out.

There were a few people who still seemed to be waking up and getting out of their own rooms. You quietly followed someone not too far ahead of you, who led you out to a spacious training ground outside.

People were filing up and you had stayed in the back to not draw attention to yourself.

"He's here!" Someone up front exclaimed and you knew who he meant. Everyone took a knee and you followed their actions.

Danzo had cleared his throat and was scanning the crowd for a certain someone. He quickly caught sight of you since you were the only one wearing a hood.

"Step up front", he said but you knew it was directed towards you. You could feel his one good eye piercing right through you.

Calmly standing up, you proceeded to walk to the front where he was. Everyone had lifted their head to see who exactly Danzo was referring to.

You stood at his right and asked, "Who will I be up against?" He skimmed through every shinobi that knelt in front of him, trying to decide who would be worthy enough to bring out your abilities. But anothe idea came to mind.

"Anyone that is willing to fight her, then stand up." A moment of silence had gone by as everyone began looking at each other until someone stood up.

"I'll do it. I want to see how much of a weakling this person is," a female said as she placed her hand on her hip.

"Oh please, you'll be begging for your life by the time I'm done with you," you retorted back at her. She had waist length brown hair that was tied into a high ponytail and wore a mask similar to yours except hers had three whisker marks and you could barely see her eyes because of how squinted the eye shapewear was. Other than that, she was wearing a cloak like everyone else.

She scoffed at your comment and headed towards you. "We'll see about that then." As she was going to walk past you, she purposely bumped into your shoulder with hers.

You scowled under your mask and wanted to attack her right there and then but refrained yourself from making a scene. You'll get her back even worse.

"Everyone else, do your own training and spar with someone." Danzo walked away while you and the other female were behind him. He led you two a bit farther away than the others but close enough to the point where you could hear their weapons clashing.

You stood across from the brown haired female and went into a fighting stance. "Ready to lose?" You asked her with a small smirk on your lips. Although she couldn't see it, she could tell you had one just from the tone of your voice.

"Pfft, I'm not scared of you."

"You should be."

Danzo cleared his throat before speaking, "Begin!"

Right when those words escaped his mouth, you immediately grabbed a kunai from your pouch and charged at her. She did the same as well but grabbed her tantō instead. Both kunai and tantō clashed against each other, the two of you trying to outbeat the other.

You jumped back  and were ready to perform a few handsigns. ​​'Okay, I have to keep a low profile so I can't perform a justu that's too strong but not too weak either.'
