Chương 10: Ch 10: Looking for Nonoe
After listening to Yasuke Minato nodded his head and followed the black-haired man.
-Do you remember the area where she did her tests? - Yasuke questioned
-Not exactly, but I saw her follow the group that was at the back of the academy," answered the blue-eyed Minato.
-Mmm, okay, let's look there first.
A few minutes passed until Minato and Yasuke arrived at the mentioned area.
-Mmm, we are already here, but I don't see any trace of her.
-Maybe she has already finished her test, let's ask the other participants," proposed Minato.
-You ask over there, I'll ask over here," agreed Yasuke.
-Okay
Subsequently, the duo began to ask the remaining children in the area.
After asking a couple of times, the two of them rejoined.
-Uff, I didn't get much, they actually confirmed to me that Nonoe participated in the tests, but then walked away along with other children -Shared Minato the information obtained.
-Mmm, I see, I also heard something similar, they commented that they went to the northern area, let's go there.
- Alright, let's go
And so the duo moved again, this time towards the northern area of the academy.
As they arrived, the duo saw four silhouettes, one of them was lying on the grass, with his hands behind his head and his eyes closed
The other three were talking, one of them was the bulkiest of the four, he was holding in his hand a bag with buns inside, and seemed to be sharing some of them with the smaller figure
This smaller figure was swinging on a swing that was held by a pair of ropes that were tied to a tree branch.
Pushing this silhouette, was another one that was male, he had a long ponytail of a blonde color, different from Minato's, as it was a more muted color
Seeing them, Minato smiled triumphantly and announced to Yasuke.
-We found her! You saw how you didn't have to worry
- I wasn't worried - answered Yasuke
- Yeah right, I saw how your hands were shaking when we didn't see Nonoe in the previous area," said the blond.
-Yeah yeah, whatever you say, annoying kid," Yasuke attacked.
- Hey, how did I...!" however, Minato couldn't finish his complaint, since Yasuke had already left him behind.
POV Nonoe
I remember once Minato proposed me to accompany them for a training, that day Minato came back to the orphanage with more bruises than usual, according to him, Yasuke was tougher than usual
Yasuke was always serious, and showed few emotions, and if he did it was when he was with Minato or me, Minato secretly told me that he had a hard time showing his emotions, because when he was younger he had to live through something very hard.
I decided that I had to help him to open up to more people, so one day I talked to grandma Nora about it, she smiled and told me that she would take care of it, the next thing I knew was that Yasuke started to give classes to the other children, this made me happy, as it could help him to open up more with others
As time went by, even though I could see Yasuke complaining about how annoying it was to teach others, I could see that little by little he was no longer refusing the greetings of the other children in the orphanage.
Time went by and finally the day that the three of us were waiting for the most arrived, the day of entrance to the academy.
That day was the most important, not only for Minato, Yasuke and me, but it was for all the children of the orphanage, it was the opportunity to become ninjas in the future.
I tried to help everyone as best I could, I had seen Minato and Yasuke training, so I wasn't worried about them.
When we arrived at the academy I could see many more children, they were all our age, and they were all here for the same dream, to be shinobi, and to protect their loved ones, I also wanted to take care of the children and especially Minato and Yasuke.
The hokage made an exciting speech, although Yasuke didn't seem to think so and yawned, luckily Minato helped him.
After solving this, the hokage finished the speech and the other shinobi explained the rules and requirements of the ninja academy.
Afterwards, we divided into groups, as I separated from Yasuke and Minato I wished them good luck, even though I knew they didn't need it, I wanted to support them as much as I could.
Our group was taken to an area where we took the exam, the first test was some physical exercises, they were a little difficult, but with a little effort I was able to complete them.
In the second one they put us in teams of four, in this test they gave us several basic situations of a ninja and we had to try to solve them, in this test I was lucky the truth, I was in a group that had a very smart guy, I even thought that he could be as smart as Minato and Yasuke.
However, I realized a problem, just as Minato was an enthusiastic and always happy, Yasuke was always cold, serious and stoic, this new smart kid was very lazy.
Luckily the other classmates who had touched me did not get angry, and even seemed to be used to it, I later learned that they came from clans and that they had known each other since childhood and were friends.
They were very kind and helped me to understand the questions and why they had to be answered in one way or another.
The third one was an obstacle test, a bit complex at the beginning, but after a while I was able to pass it, although with just enough time.
After finishing the tests I was about to leave, but the group of children stopped me and proposed me to join them to have something to eat and hang out.
I decided to accept, but I told them that I could not leave the academy, because my other friends would come looking for me.
They accepted and in the end we stayed in an area that had a swing.
There we were talking, we took turns on the swing, except for the lazy boy, who just wanted to lie down on the grass while answering with his eyes closed.
Before I knew it we had already been talking for quite a while, and before I knew it I forgot that I had to go to the place where I was supposed to meet Minato and Yasuke.
While I was swinging I saw two silhouettes approaching, I saw how the blonde boy exclaimed something, and the boy with the hat just ignored it and headed towards me.
- Well, so here you are - commented the boy with the spotted hat.
Before I could answer him, the boy behind me stepped forward.
- Who are you, why were you looking for Nonoe?
- You don't care, Nonoe, it's late, we're leaving now.
-Hey, you can't talk like that.
Before they started arguing, I saw how Minato who had stayed behind, intervened in the conversation.
-I'm sorry, we are Nonoe's friends, we had arranged a place to go home, when we saw that she didn't show up, we started to worry, my friend is just worrying.
-I see, is that so, Nonoe?" the boy who was lying on the grass asked me.
-I'm sorry for the misunderstanding, they are the friends I told you about before.
-Hahaha, it's ok, do you want something to eat to fix the misunderstanding," asked the boy who was a little wider than the others.
-No need, we are already late, we have to go," said Yasuke with his arms crossed.
I could see that Yasuke was really upset, even though he was always serious, Nonoe never saw him with that kind of expression.
"He must have been really worried about me"- Nonoe thought.
Just when Minato was about to scold Yasuke for being rude and not making peace, he saw Nonoe move
Yasuke who wasn't expecting it, suddenly felt something wrapping around him, looking down he saw Nonoe looking at him with teary eyes.
- I...sniff...I'm sorry, I didn't want you to worry...sniff...please forgive me...sniff...don't be angry...sniff- said Nonoe in tears.
Yasuke's heart couldn't take the impact and he collapsed instantly.
-It's...okay, but just this once, you have to be careful, okay?" and after what he said, Yasuke turned his head to the boy who was thicker than the others and asked him, "Is the offer still good?
-Of course, let's go ahead and eat.
On the side Minato smiled at this image, and in his mind he said, hahaha you are a tsundere Yasuke.
