New friends

"Go on, Little Squirt. On this roster, it reads your first homeroom is on the second floor in room 2-3. Good luck, I will pick you up after your lessons." Ryuichi promised.

"Bye-bye, Aniki," Kaname replied, running up the stairs. '2-6, 2-7, it's the other way, here it is 2-3! Ok here goes nothing' she thought, opening the doors and instantly getting rammed by a bawling kid running for his life.

"Get back here you little shit! I will kill you for calling Misa-chan blind!" yelled out a short-haired girl with a saw-shaped ponytail. Her height is already greater than most of her classmates reaching 130 cm (~4.26 ft). Behind her, crouched a scared girl with long straight black hair, and pale white eyes.

"Sniff, wait till my father hears of this! He will close this run down dog pit!" cried out a boy trying to step out of the class. "Move away you wretch!" he said to a baffled black-haired girl standing in his way that he rammed into before.

'What the heck is going on!?' Kaname was forcibly getting pushed away, "Grr, don't touch me!" was her only warning. One knee in the boy's crotch and a throw above her left arm k.o'ed her adversary. The entire class got silent, most of her new classmates were aghast how easily she took down the bigger boy.

"Muhahaha! I like you! Come sit here, the desk next to me is empty." said the girl with the saw-shaped ponytail.

'Oh great, now I will befriend the class bully. Mommy will be so proud.' Kaname surrendered to her fate.

"Hi, I'm Kaname." she greeted.

"Hey, Kaname-chan, I'm Anko Mitarashi. I hope you aren't a civilian? The guy you destroyed comes from a wealthy merchant family and his father will make a lot of problems for your parents." Anko said a little worried about her new friend.

"I'm an Uchiha, no biggie, but why did this idiot want to become a ninja? The first obstacle in his life and he is crying for his father! I hope I will get to spar with him, easy credits! Hahaha." laughed out Kaname.

"Haha, you had your fun, now it's my turn! But you're not a standard Uchiha are you Kana-chan? Can you see this emo-kid in the back near the window? I think he is your clansmen, for the last 10 minutes the only thing he said was 'Un'. Ah shit, I forgot! This is my shadow, I meant my pet, Damnit! My friend Misa Hyuga-" the black-haired girl shyly waved her hand in Kaname's direction, "- and in front of you sits Makipuppy!" Anko's reply was interrupted by a fierce animal growl.

"*GROWL*... Anko I said my name is Maki! Hello Kana-chan, meet my partner-" Maki greeted Kaname, pointing a finger to her shoulder. There slept a small dog its fur full of black and white spots, "She is called Hamimaru, she is ninken, a border collie." young Inuzuka informed, playfully scratching her ninken between its eyes. Maki was Kaname's height, give or take 122cm (~4,0ft), she had dark blonde hair ending with a long ponytail, her forehead was covered only by a single lock of hair. On her cheeks were tattooed twin red fangs characteristic for all Inuzuka clan members.

"Nice to meet four of you! At last, I have three normal friends and a dog to talk with, hahaha." Kaname laughed out loud.

"Umm, sorry you are mistaken, Anko-chan is far from normal…" young Hyuga said in barely a whisper. Her words almost made Anko fall while she was rocking on her chair.

"Misa-chaan~ That was mean." A new group of friends laughed at Anko's misfortune.

Sliding room doors audibly opened up. Through the doors, this class new teacher entered, he wore a green chūnin vest. His face was scarred by an old blade wound in the shape of a letter X. "Hello class, My name is Ichiro Umino and I will be your homeroom teacher for the next 4 years. Normally you would have some time for introductions, but today we have got a special guest. Say hello to our Sandaime Hokage."

Another person entered the classroom "Hello future ninjas." said a happy Sarutobi.

"Hello, Hokage-sama," the entire class said as one, except for two black-haired girls sitting next to each other changing the chant into "Hi Jiji!".

Kaname and Anko looked at each other eyes, without any words they fist-bumped. Hokage's left eye made a little twitch 'Ha! Got you!' both girls thought at the same time.

"My future ninja, I hope you can find enough determination to pass this academy and join the big shinobi family of Konohagakure. After the last war we're looking for any help we can get, after five years of war our village is slowly getting up from its knees. For the last four years, Konoha, Suna, and Uzushio defended our peaceful way of life in the region, which I hope will stay like this forever. All greater villages suffered-" Kaname stopped listening to the rest of his speech because she found Hamimaru on her desk asking to be pet.

Some minutes later, half of the class were sleeping on their desk. Kaname was woken up by a loud clap "Thank you for listening to me young ones, Hokage duties are calling. Goodbye!" Sandaime disappeared with a *Puff* and a smoke cloud.

"Wow, do you know how he did that?" Anko asked.

"No, I don't. It wasn't a <Shunshin no Jutsu>. We will study it later, Anko-chan." Kaname assured her new friend.
