' Damn, I suck, well, it could have gone worse... or better.'
When no one was looking, I stored some leaves inside my inventory, mimicking putting them inside my pocket, and only then started moving to my class.

' That was so boring, I didn't even gain a point in Int or Wis for learning their explanations, not even a skill, the only thing keeping me sane was the skill level-up.'

' Now I have a free afternoon, what should I do? Go hunting in a nearby forest? If fighting can get me some XP then maybe hurting animals would too, but that would gather too much attention, then what am I supposed to do.'
When that thought formed inside my head a notification appeared but I got distracted by a voice calling me.
" Naruto." A feminine voice called from behind me.
I turn, knowing 100% who the voice was of.
Sakura Haruno, my crush from the first time I was here, what did she want from me? Had I finally made her fall for me? As if.
" Yeah, can I help you?"
" Would you like to go to a place with me?" She asked with a tone mixed with embarrassment and anger.
" Sure."
' I AM ASKED ON A DATE BY SAKURA, OH MY GOD.'
(Before anyone says anything, remember he is 12 and has still a Wis of 6)
Without much more discussion I started following her, trying but failing to strike discussion, she answered all of my questions either with yes or no.
" So where are going?"
" You will see."
Finally a full answer, but just as I was about to ask another, I felt it.
'I am so happy, I finally get to spend some time with-.'
The cold sensation covering all of my clothes and face then came the feathers, and lastly the laugh, oh the laughs, those were the things that hurt the most.
" HAHAHAH THAT IDIOT ACTUALLY BELIEVED IT." A kid said from behind his hiding spot, holding in his hand a basket previously filled with eggs.
" OH MY GOD THAT WAS SO EASY, AHAHHAH." Said another kid who had an empty pillow.
I am calm, too calm, the laughs started dying out, they weren't expecting calmness, anger, crying, running away, but not this silence.
With almost a robotic movement I turn towards Sakura, my eyes now emotionless, with no sadness, anger, or grief, just calm sky-blue eyes staring at Sakura.
" Were you aware of this?"
" I- I am sorry Naruto." She said while taking a step back, apparently scared by my calmness.
Am I angry? I am, Am I hurt? Even more so, Will let my emotions control my actions from now on? No, never again.
Without any other words spoken I began walking away, attracting stares from both parents and kids, the kids simply laughed, and the parents called me a wolf in sheep's clothing.
" Are you ok?" A voice I recognized quite easily asked from behind me.
" Do you like the new look? The feathers are the last trend." I said while turning towards Shikamaru.
" I am sorry, I should have known they would have pulled something like this after seeing the bring eggs at school."
" It's not your fault, how could have known, I have to go now, the eggs are going in places I didn't know I had."
Before he could say anything else I started running, where? I don't know, why? I don't know, I just want to get away from the academy and not meet anyone I know.
More laughs and stares came from running inside the village, so I changed my destination and headed towards my fishing spot, where I had first met Gramps, maybe I could have met him.
While running I didn't notice a sudden shift in the area, the forest somewhat changed its biome, longer trees, bigger bushes, but most importantly.
A rabbit with a horn.
When we met eyes I remained stunned at seeing a chakra beast inside the village, but the rabbit wasn't as stunned as I was.
It leapt towards me, trying to use its horn to pierce my stomach.
Rolling away I evaded the hit, not sure of where I was or I had gotten here, but I am sure of one thing, this rabbit has met me at a very bad moment.
Before it could dash again I was already on top of him with a rock I had found on the ground, I started bashing its head, once, twice, thrice, four times, five, six...

I finally calmed down, the possibility to hit something made me relieve some stress, and now that I could think I was able to do something about my clothes.
Following the logic behind my inventory, I was able to store all the eggs and feathers touching, my body, leaving behind only soaked and smelling clothes, but at least they looked normal unlike before.
With a free moment, I took a look at all the notifications I had received.
