School

I gladly take the box and give Ino a few pats before opening the box. The wooden needles themselves were...

Basic. They were made out of oak and were big and thick with little balls at the ends.

But I liked them nonetheless. But he Idea of using them as weapons was beyond me. That was until my brain started to be filled with all sorts of techniques on how to fight with them and combined with my new ability to control them with my mind they now seemed like the most powerful option.

My small headache ends and Ino looks at me confused. After giving them a reassuring pat to tell them it's ok. I put the knitting needles under my bed for later use. Knowing my mom checks up on me every so often I don't think anything good would come out of her seeing me control the needles with my mind.

I give a few more crackers to Ino and return them before my door opens and my tutor comes in.

My tutor ms. Ecurn was a bit too obvious about wandering around the house looking for something but she barely even bothered me about my work so I let her do her thing.

Other than me having to act oblivious to pretty much everything my life was pretty good.

Another 5 years pass but nothing of notice happened except the sin accident causing my father to die. At the funeral I weep what felt like an ocean. I know I could've done something but I didn't and I feel resent towards myself. my mother try to comfort me. "It's ok we couldn't have known."

We still had a stable amount of money left so it wasn't a big hit for our lifestyle.

With the tear festival I'm left on my own. I do get the opportunity to secretly train in the backyard by maneuvering the needles through the hedge making it a good exercise on speed and accuracy. With what I think is the Wooden Needle Control I was able to sense and see where the needles were like an extra pair of eyes were following them. My limit for now was 8 but even that started to hurt my brain and there were still the 12 others that I wanted to use.

At this point I realised that I didn't really have a plan, did I want to help the sins and if so how would I do that. I did have to wait another 5 years if I want to join them at the start of canon.

*3 days later*

I'm given a simple sheet of paper that had multiple math equations. She then leaves to go 'to the bathroom' like she does everyday and as soon as she's out of sight I throw the paper in the trash. She never bothered to check if I did my work and I was already way ahead of this kind of math so there was no need to do it.

I then train Ino and my needles by making Ino dodge said needles. I use the blunt end so as not to hurt him. A few minutes later I hear a scream.
