1 Week later, in the formation center, it was filled with kids from 8 years old to 12, well i was surprised at first, because i thought it would be filled with 8-10 years old child, but the majority were seniors of 11-12 years old.
So i entered the gate of the center, the center was next by the Head Quarter, and the Department that is specialized in special operation and such.
I was accompanied by my brother, who at the moment returned from his patrol on the future front line, we entered the area filled with kids, i saw him getting separated from me to go on the right side of the area to the parents side, while me i was getting on the line.
Along the way i heard whispers about me being young, the like of "Isn't he to young?" "what a 5 years old child doing here." "we need to get the clan head to talk about that." ect.
I even heard some parents gasping about the fact that i am indeed the clan hear, anyway, ignoring the whispers, i got in the line of about 20 kids.
10 minutes later of waiting, i saw my father walking to the talking podium, him being in kimono, in contrast of the more ninja and Genin like outfit of the aspirants.
He arrived at his destination, eyed us one by one, then cleared his throat "Welcome everyone to the Formation center, here where you will study you profession, some of you want to be a spy, or others being doctors, but only the competent one will pass, be aware that everything will be difficult from now on for the new recruit, there is only respect and discipline among the aspirants, so be prepared and welcome to the Center."
The moment he finished his speech, we clapped our hands, then the moment we stopped he continued "For the civilian recruit please move to the right."
A moment later about 15 kids moved along the 2nd red painted square of the Center, there was only 5 kids remaining on our spy aspirant square.
About 10 minute or some, of my father writing on some paper, he took another tablet paper, then said "For the spy aspirant, please move with your teacher on your right." when he said that, i and one 8 years old kid were confused, the other 3 senior were seeing a empty place like they knew something was going to appear, well at the moment, a medium sized black outfitted adult appeared, he wore the basic spy outfit, blank mask and black outfit, our teacher i guess.
We followed him, me and the 4 other kids, into the what seem to be a class room with small tables, we sate at our place, and surprisingly, there was no place-problem, well i guess it is serious school, which i started to take a liking to it.
Then our teacher started to talk, "Welcome everyone, i am Chibi, you will be calling me Taicho for your time in the center, from now on, your name while in service do not exist, Izaku Utsukame will be called Yurei, Yuji Utsukame will be called Neko, the rest of you three present yourself as seniors."
One with black long hair and brown eyes sood up "Name calling Inu, ability great odors, speed, stealth, Kenjutsu and 2 tomoe sharingan, specialization tracking, rank Tier 2." he then took his mask with yellow line on his left eye and placed it on his face.
The second one with a messy blond hair and green eyes stood up next "Name calling Kuma, ability trap making, strength, Ninjutsu and speed, no ocular dojutsu, specialization in research and destruction, rank Tier 2." he as well took a blank mask with red line on his left eye then placed it on his face.
The last one with brown short hair stood up "Name calling Karasu, ability in stealth, speed, poison and genjutsu, specialization assassination and infiltration, rank Tier 1."
Then Taicho made a nod of recognition to the 3 senior, then turned to us, he said "While you want to be a spy, you need to be able to at least be Tier 1 to get into the job, Inu, explain the system to the rookie will you."
The one with yellow line stood up and walked up beside Taicho "To enter the formation here, you will be passing a test whether you are worth of being a spy or not, and that's thanks to the ranking system, the lowest of rank in here is Tier 0, possibility of having a potential, as such he will be having a 1 year training and assessing whether he is worth it or not, Tier 1 Rookie in training, who will be having 1 year or 2 worth of training, Tier 2 is being a ninja capable of doing side-mission, patrol around the compound, and training in a specialization of a choice by the ninja."
"Ino, now the masks." said Taicho
He straighten his back and continued "You will receive your mask when you are at least Tier 2, then you are assigned to a team, every team has a special characterization to their mask, some have the line to the right eye, or the lower part of the noose, or even both eyes connecting them, our characterization is having a line on the left eye, group sign, Overwatch team 2."
"Good, now i heard that one of you are worth the Tier 1 or even Tier 2 from the beginning, but unfortunately i believe in action and not words," he turned to Inu and said "prepare the training underground 2 for a spar ," the moment he turned to us, Inu disappeared, he continued "the two of you will be assessed if you are indeed worth the efforts of being a spy or not, but before, introduction."
My mate of 8 years old next to me stood up with a shaky legs, he said "I-I am Yuj-" before he finished his next word, he saw a kunai past him.
"I thought i said it clearly that you do not exist only by your name calling, am i not? start by the name calling."
Yuji next to me started shaking, i sighed in my head "N-name calling Neko, i am 8-"
"Stop right there, you just got a negative point, next up is you." he pointed at me.
I stood up and straighten my back, hands behind my back "Name calling Yurei, ability in close range combat, Kenjutsu, and 2 Tomoe sharingan," at that moment the 3 recruit snapped their head at me, i even heard my 8 years old mate gasp, "specialization, do not have."
Taicho eyed me for about 20 second, the longest 20 seconds honestly, as well as the 3 per of eyes staring at me, then he said "Seem now i know who they are talking about, but i still need a proof, good job, positive point," he turned and started to walk toward the doors he said "now while i found out who is the recruit, i do believe to treat you equally, so i am giving you a chance for a spar Neko, now follow me, to the training underground 2."
