Capítulo 11: A Butterfly and a Snake
In front of the ninja academy stood a group of young teens. Their looks placed them somewhere between 10 and 11 years old, this was the day of their exams. In the middle of the group of friends stood one of the highest teens of them all, because of the hard training the last 2 years her height reached almost 145cm (4ft 9''). This lightly tanned skinned teen has a sweet and innocent feel about her. She has a round face with a softly shaped jaw, a pointed nose, thin lips, and dark eyes. She has shoulder-length, straight, black hair which is pulled into a ponytail.
Her body slowly developing female curves, for the last year she was running every day around the Uchiha district and sparring with her friends, thanks to this her body got some muscle mass.
"Hey, Kana-chan! I asked you if you're prepared for the exams?" Anko repeated her question to the young woman.
"Oh sorry Anko, I was thinking about Mr. Fluffy, he got ill. Of course, I'm prepared, I'm pretty sure all of us will ace the exams, as only four of us can spar on each other level. Don't worry so much." said Uchiha teen lightly patting her friend's arm. "Let's go inside and wait for our cue." Kaname said.
Kaname entered the exams as one of the last ones, inside she saw her favorite academy teacher sitting behind a school table.
"Hi Kana-chan, that's a formality but show me three basic jutsus, and if you want some bonus points you can show any other jutsus as well." replied her old teacher.
"Hello Umino-sensei, are you back from fatherly leave? How is young Iruka?" Kaname asked good-naturedly using a single hand seal to transform into the teacher's son.
"One seal <Henge>, not bad. Iruka is happy to start his academy the next year, as a parent I'm not, at least not at the time of war." replied her teacher sadly. Kaname easily did two other basic jutsus in succession.
"Do you want to show me anything else? I see you have a blade now, can you use it?" asked Umino-sensei. At this moment Kaname disappeared in a swirl of red butterflies, 'Fuck! She got me under genjutsu.' realized her teacher. He woke up with a short tanto blade near his neck.
"Kurenai-senpai sends her regards Umino-sensei. And if you know Uchiha matriarch she taught me the standard Uchiha fire release <Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu>, but the classroom is too small to show you this technique. As for the first aid lessons you gave us half a year ago, I'm still training <Shōsen Jutsu> (AN: Mystical Palm), but I still lack control to do it right. I'm sorry I won't show you more, but every ninja should have some secrets." replied black-haired girl hiding her short-sword in the holster on the back of her hips.
"Hahaha, you are going to be an amazing kunoichi one day. I hope you understand, that makes you one of our best candidates for the title of "Prodigy of the year" and it will most likely influence your team composition. Still, good job! Catch!" said her teacher throwing her a new forehead protector.
"Thank you and goodbye Umino-sensei." Kaname said her farewells, lightly bowed her head and went her way.
This afternoon Kaname went with her pet to the vet.
"As I see it there is nothing wrong with your hare. The only thing that I can do is to give you some aspirin for the pain, dilute it in the water and give it to him. Uchiha-sama I'm sorry to say it, but your hare is getting very old, he will die from old age in 6 months at most. When the time comes if you would like, I could ease his pass." said a friendly but sad veterinarian.
"I understand. I will not let his life become torture." replied Kaname with tears in her eyes, "Thank you." she said leaving the vet.
This night she had the nightmare of Mr. Fluffy squirming in his cage from the pain. She woke up sleepy, did her morning preparations, and went her way to the academy to meet her new teammates.
"For the last time: Hello my students." said her teacher. "Let's start. Team 1, Akanishi Teijo, Izuhara Yuno, and Hyuga Misa."
"Nooo! I need to protect Misa-chan!" Anko screamed only to get floored by flying chalk.
"Team 2, Mitarashi Anko, Okuma Akuro, and Narita Motoki." the teacher didn't stop talking, "... Team 9: Inuzuka Maki, Nara Takeshi, and Uchiha Kaname. That's all, wait for your new team captain he will give you further instructions. Goodbye, it was a pleasure teaching you all."
"Anko-chan, don't worry about me." whispered her pale-eyed friend hugging Anko.
"Fufufu, so that's my new team." every single teen in the class stopped what they were doing to look who made such a sinister laugh, only to see a man with pale white skin, black hair and yellow snake-like eyes, he was wearing a standard Konoha jounin uniform. "Team 2 come with me." he said leaving the classroom.
"Cool��" Anko whispered under her nose.
"Good luck Anko-chan, Um… I'm a little worried about you. Don't let him eat you." Misa said to her best friend.
"Have fun Anko, now slither away before you lose sight of him!" Kaname cheered her up.
"Hi Takeshi-kun, are you still fascinated with clouds?" Kaname's new teammate asked a Nara teen.
"Hello, Maki-san. Yeah, the clouds are nice today. Thanks, wake me up when our captain comes." a pineapple-shaped black-haired teen replied getting himself comfortable on his desk.
"*Growl* Hamimaru! <Golden Rain>!" her partner jumped on Nara's desk and raised her rear paw aiming at the middle of the black-haired teen head.
"No! Stop it, you troublesome woman! I won't sleep, what do you want?" asked angry Takeshi.
"You were pretty much the dead-last of our class, always getting barely acceptable grades. You never even tried to seriously spar with anyone, I'm just worried, are you sure you want to become a shinobi?" Maki replied to her new teammate.
"Grades are just that - grades, they won't help you on the field, believe me I know it for a fact. And yes I want to be a ninja, don't worry about me I'm good enough to be a genin. Hello to you too Kaname-san, as we're teammates please use my full name from now on." Takeshi greeted Kaname that just came closer to her new teammates.
"If that's what you really want… So Take-san, if you feel you're good enough to join us, then welcome in the team!" Kaname had a small smirk on her face.
"Team 9 follow me!" said a Jounin in standard uniform with a red outfit on top of it.
"Damn, I didn't see his face, any idea who was it?" asked Maki.
"None whatsoever, it doesn't matter, let's go meet our new captain." replied Kaname.
"So much walking, it is troublesome."

dahnik Hares live for 1-5 years, I had to let the idea go - Mr. Fluffy was just a source of brief strength for Kaname. It was hard to let a lighthearted girl become a killer and not lose her image (traits) without such small additions. I'm sorry for any1 that wanted the hare to live forever, but Life is Brutal - and story writer even more :-P.
Any ideas who will be their captain? :-) Sorry, no chapter tomorrow, I'm tired from work :-/ I will try to write it, but I don't have any hope for finishing it.
And as always: If you found any mistakes please inform me. I don't like mistakes :-)
