Chapter 2: A Trio Made Of Two.
I watched the two Genine walk into the room and couldn't take my eye's off of one of them, the person looked about the same age as me and was wearing similar cloths, but what I couldn't take my eye's off was the symbol of the hidden snow village. The other Genine was younger by a couple of years, he wore a white outfit with symbols of the hidden leaf on specific points.
Iruka-Sensei stood in front of the huge black board and waited for everyone to focus on him.
“Okay everyone, in a moment you will all be split up into three man groups,” He scanned the room making sure all the correct students were present. “Now that you've all proven worthy of being fully fledged ninja you can start going on missions that will both benefit the village and the people who need help.” I could only imagine how exciting the first mission would be.
“Hopefully you and me get in the same group.” Kisho said to me as Iruka-Sensei brought the two Genine to the front.
“These two Genine are going to be pushed into your class because they have graduated a year early then the others in their class, so give them a warm welcome,” He pointed at the boy in white first. “This is Haru Hatake and this is,” He pointed at the second one and I still couldn't help but gaze at the symbol. “Yukimura Meshima.” I froze, with a mixture of not believing and not wanting to be believe what I had just heard. Was he really from the same family as me?
I stood to say something but Kisho pulled me down and shook his head, he was right this wasn't the time. I sat back leaving it. “Okay then let's read out the names of each three man squad.” Iruka-Sensei read names and squad numbers off of a scroll based on each individuals abilities.
“Squad one...” He begun, I patiently waited for my name to be called, watching this Yukimura kid, could he possibly be family?
“Hey Kisho, do you know either of those two Genine?” I asked. Kisho just shook his head.
“Okay squad seven, Naruto Uzamaki, Sakura Haruno and Sasuke Uchia,” The names were running out, by my count there was only enough for three more squads. “Okay squad eight, Hinata Hyuga, Kiba Inuzuka and,” I was hoping to hear my name right about this point, so that I could be with Hinata, but I didn't hear my name at all. “Shino Aburame.” So there was another squad down, now there was only six of us.
“This is going to be interesting.” Kisho said with an evil looking smile on his face.
“Squad nine, Kisho Sitzu, Neko Meshima,” There it was my name, so i was with Kisho at least, but who could the third member be. “And finally Yukimura Meshima.” I guess irony has it's own twisted sense of humour. Kisho didn't in the least look bothered with the selection, but the kid, he was just staring at me, could it be that he just realised that he had a relative in this village too?
“That's exactly how i thought it would play out.” Kisho said looking towards me now.
“Okay the final Squad, Ino Yamanaka, Shikamaru Nara and Cholji Akimichi,” Ino didn't look to happy with the squad she puled, where as Sakura was the opposite. “Okay everyone, after lunch you will meet your new Sensei.” Iruka-Sensei left us all to get acquainted.
I had gone outside straight after and quickly began looking for the two people in my squad. Kisho was easy to find, he was standing near the river, (His favourite place). But Yukimura, where the hell did he go.
“Are you sure we should waste our time looking for him?”
“What do you mean Raven?”
“Well, he's got to come back to the class room to meet our new Sensei, so let's just wait for him there.” Kisho was right, but I couldn't wait any longer, I needed to find out who this kid was.
“You go back, I'm gonna' search a little bit longer.” In a flash I jumped into the tree's and was gone.
I searched everywhere in the village and found nothing, conceding defeat I headed back to the class room where Kisho was waiting.
“So did you find him?”
“No, he wasn't anywhere, guess I'll have to wait till he shows up here.” I sat down next to Kisho again, just as a Jounine walked into the room, I recognised her as one of the proctors from the previous years Chuunin exams.
“Okay squad nine, this is your new Sensei, Anko Mitarashi.” Iruka-Sensei pointed her in our direction.
“Okay you maggots, let's get moving, wait aren't there supposed to be three of you?” She came off as really angry, but we would later find out that she was as soft as a bag of feathers.
“I'm here, Sensei, sorry I'm late.” Yukimura said entering the room so calm and collected.
“Well okay then, I guess we can start, all three of you meet me outside.” She disappeared in a cloud of white smoke leaving us to all stare at each other, but at least i was face to face with the kid at last.
