"Quiet down everyone!" Iruka waved his tan hands around to quiet down his rowdy students, obviously flustered. When silence replaced the once voice-filled room, he smiled and motioned his hands towards a young girl stood beside him with a small smile. "This is Io Koharu, our new student from the village hidden in the—mist was it?—well, I can't remember. Please treat her kindly."
The raven haired girl beside him bowed towards her knew peers, but they couldn't exactly pinpoint what about her made her stand out significantly. Transferring schools between villages was almost unheard of unless in cases of marriage or adoption—but neither of these things seemed to be taking place. That said, they'd never exactly had a new student before.
"Would anyone like to volunteer to show Koharu-chan around? It'd help her a lot if she had a friend." The man waited a few moments, only to be met with a dead silence and no hands eagerly flying up to become acquainted with such an anomaly. He deadpanned, "if no one volunteers, I'll just choose you at random and you'll have to comply."
No one seemed to budge. They all stared at Koharu with a variety of judgment, some without care, others nervous to speak with her, and others who—bluntly put—wanted absolutely nothing to do with her. It wasn't in their interest to be met with someone they lacked familiarity with, unlike the usual faces they saw in Konaha. Though, her own standoffish deposition wasn't helping Iruka's bargain sell, it wasn't like anyone would want to willingly acquaint someone who couldn't be bothered to emit a brighter aura for them.
Iruka hummed, crossing his toned arms over his chest. "All right then. Sakura, thank you for volunteering—" the girl had gasped in the middle of his sentence—, "I'm sure you and Koharu will become really great friends."
A pink haired girl seated in the third row, her hands over her eyes, had exhaled deeply with a red tint dusted across her pale cheeks. She didn't even bother to make eye contact, Koharu making her way towards the third row where she'd be seated permanently, just to make sure she'd gotten use to the girl. Sakura, (apparently that was the pink haired girl), shot the black haired girl a side glance, weary of her.
Sakura sighed once again, and mustered up everything she had to extend a hand out to the new girl who sat beside her, an eyebrow cocked. "I'm Sakura. Stick with me, and don't go anywhere near Sasuke-kun."
The girl had politely accepted her extended hand, pulling away after a brief shake, and scanning the room for anyone her new friend could've possibly been talking about, (and realizing she really didn't know anything).
"Okay, but I'll have to know who they are if I'm going to stay away from them." Koharu concluded, a weird smile on her face as she watched Sakura scoff and subtly point out a boy in the row to the left. She glanced over Sakura's shoulder, a dumbfounded look on her face when she scanned a raven haired boy, his hand acting pillar to his head. Nothing too special about him. "Why do I have to stay away from him?"
