Another year has gone in a flash. And you could say that Ena has transformed, to say the least.
Over the year, his body kept changing, growing much more robust and durable and taller than kids his age, with small muscles beginning to form. Ena's nerve systems, as well as brainwaves and thought processes, have increased thanks to the speed force running throughout his body, enhancing it as time goes on, giving the unknown body effects that he has yet to discover.
"Come on, Ena! You're going to be late to the Academy! It's your first day! You are already one day behind! You can't be late! The first impression is what matters most!" Ena's mom yelled from the living room to a changing Ena, who was putting on his clothes and putting his silky white hair in a bun that had grown long over time. Some strands of his hair couldn't make it into the bun as they fell to the sides of his face.
People would think he was a girl if they did not know him. His mother had insisted that he had grown out his hair. But Ena started to believe it was because she wanted a girl instead of a boy. He sighed and put on the hoodie his mom had made him.
He went to the living room and saw his mom eating breakfast at the table. He sat down and started to eat his eggs and small pieces of ham and cheese mixed into them.
After he ruffly had about ten plates of eggs, he finally felt satisfied. His mom looked at the clock and sighed, "your already 3 minutes late. Go on already!" Yuna said while hugging and picking him up, throwing him out of the house.
"Geez, Mom! What's the big rush? Tech, it's not like they'll kick me out of the academy after inviting me to join…." Ena mumbled
Yes, the Hokage personally visited their home and invited Ena to join their top class in the academy. He said something along the lines of Ena's exceptional gifts and that he would greatly help Konoha in the future. He was looking forward to seeing his progress after graduating from the academy.
Of course, they accepted, and Ena joined the academy; he didn't even need to take the entrance exam…. That was good for Ena as.. well, he would probably fail, thanks miserably to having zero knowledge of shinobi.
So today was the day that Ena joined the academy. He was technically one day late as everyone else had their entrance exam yesterday, went to the academy, and had their first school day.
Running down the streets of Konoha was a slight blur. Only ninjas would be able to see the boy. After Ena arrived at the academy, finding the fitting room took him a couple of minutes. Classroom A.
He knocked on the door of the room and waited patiently. After a couple of seconds, an older man looking in his 20's20sh, with a scar across his nose, looked at Ena and smiled.
"Ah, you must be Ikazuchi Ena; lord Hokage told me I would receive a new student. Come and introduce yourself and name one of your goals. And maybe some of the things you like."
The whole class was chatting and nurturing to one another. "Wow, who's that?" A girl with pink hair said, looking at the white-haired Ena walking to the podium in the class. "I don't know his name, but I heard that he's blunt and rude," said a girl with blond hair.
The chatter immediately settled down when Ena started to say, "hi; my name is Ikazuchi Ena… and I guess my goal now is to become the fastest man alive! And as for the things I like.. well, I like all kinds of Dango, fish, chips, meat, Obento, ramen, curry, onigiri, and different kinds of cakes!" Ena said as his mouth started salivating and drool started coming out of the sides of his mouth. He can't help it! When food comes up, he can't help but drool a bit! It is entirely normal!
'So he's a foodie,' everyone depended in class, looking at the white-haired kid. Ena then had a smirk on his face as his figure blurred, and he appeared the next second sitting in a desk chair next to a scared shitless blonde-haired kid with tiny whiskers on his face. Yea, Ena liked to show off when he got the chance to; who wouldn't know when they got his powers and abilities? But, of course, he wouldn't be showing off in front of everybody. It wasn't in his personality. Sure he's a total idiot that likes to mess around and get into trouble and, of course, show off on occasion, but he won't go about trying to make himself look superior to everybody….. only when he feels like it….. ok maybe he likes to show off…
"Hey! How'd you do that?!" Said the blonde-haired kid pointing his finger at Ena with a glare. "Me? Well, let me think about it for a second…."

"Are you going to answer? How'd you do that!" The blonde-haired kid asked in a frustrated tone glaring at Ena, who had a pondering look.
Ena's face changed drastically "ahh, everything ok?" The blonde now asked, concerned, looking at the white-haired boy with his facial expression changing.
"NNOOOOOOO!" Ena suddenly screamed as he dropped to his knees, looking very depressed.
"Ena, are you ok?" Iruka sensei asked as he was watching the whole conversation happen. He was in slight disgust watching Ena talk to the fox. But when he suddenly screamed, his teacher instincts kicked in and quickly asked if he was ok.
Ena then mumbled in a very depressed voice, "I-I… forgot… I…I forgot"
"It's ok to let it out. What did you forget?" Iruka said, trying to smooth the child…
"I FORGOT MY DANGO!!!" Ena yelled with tears running down his face. Ena forgot his lunch, and for him… that's the line between life and death.
"Naruto! Ena! Get to your seat now! No more messing around! Today's lesson is the basics of chakra." Iruka snapped as he pointed his finger at Ena and The now-named blonde kid.
Ena and Naruto both got back into their seats in the middle row. They sat down, and both ignored each other. Ena just played with his pencil right after sitting down, weaving it through all his fingers at an insane speed. He always had a talent for using a butterfly knife in his later life. Of course, he had to practice a lot and used a dull blade so he wouldn't get cut. But ultimately, after some time and hard work, he got skilled in using a butterfly knife. And those skills also transferred to pencil tricks….. they are a lot easier.
"Alright, since it is quiet now, I shall explain the basics of chakra. Chakra is an energy that every shinobi uses to create and use ninjutsu and genjutsu, as well as some other unique ways to use chakra, but we aren't going to go there for today. Chakra is created when two more primal energies, known collectively as one's "stamina," are molded together. Physical energy is collected from each of the body's cells and can be increased through training and exercise. Spiritual energy is derived from the mind's consciousness and can be increased through studying, meditation, and experience. These two energies becoming more powerful will, make the created chakra more powerful. Therefore, practicing a technique repeatedly will build up experience, increasing one's spiritual energy and thus allowing more chakra to be created. As a result, the ninja can do that same technique with more power. This same cycle applies for physical energy, except the ninja needs to increase their endurance instead."Iruka explained in a teaching voice, and Ena looked around to see a crap ton of lost and confused faces, especially the blonde next to him. But he didn't notice that they were only the faces of the kids that weren't from any clans/commoners; the kids from families already had all of this knowledge.
Strangely enough, Ena understood what sensei Iruka said. Even though he was baffled that he could listen to the teacher without spacing out after the first sentence of "basics of chakra," he knew that it would immediately be complicated and didn't even try. But the fact that he could listen throughout the whole little lecture! And understanding it! It was just insane!… well, for him.
But what Ena didn't know was that this was just another one of the benefits of having the speed force running throughout his body.
'How the crap can I understand this? I never understood anything my teachers said in my past life… and even when mom was teaching me how to bake, it took a year to make a decent cake! But all of a sudden, I can understand a sentence of the sensei easily. How the hell am I doing this? No, I don't like this feeling… if I get smarter, I will have to grow up… and if I grow up, I won't get my mom's awesome cooking! And I will have to earn money on my own! No! I can't get smarter! If I grow up too fast, I'll get kicked out of the house and be unable to eat meat and sweat every time I go home! This can't happen!….. Operation 1:do don't get smarter…. Affirmative!' Ena quickly devised and ensured he paid no more attention to his sensei… if he did then… then… he would ultimately get kicked out from his house for growing up and have to get food and money by himself! And that can't happen! Not yet!
Ena is stupid and has stupid thoughts but don't hold that against him. He may have foolish thoughts and gets distracted quickly, but that doesn't make him dumb.
Iruka then lectured the students about Konoha's history, how it was funded, the will of fire, etc.
Ena then rested his head on the desk while spinning his pencil absently while his left leg went up and down repeatedly on the floor. 'Ughh, this is so boring; even if I change worlds, I guess I can't escape a teacher lecturing me. Why is fate so Cruel? I want to go for a run! Why am I stuck at this gosh darn desk? I need to do something to distract me…' Ena then suddenly slammed his forehead on his desk repeatedly, making it bleed a little. He touched his forehead and mumbled, "maybe that wasn't the best idea to get rid of my boredom."
'Ya think?!' 'What an idiot' 'is this guy insane?' everyone had similar thoughts going through their heads, giving Ena strange looks. But one shy girl in the back of class thought to herself. 'Ena… I hope you ok..'
