3 Academy & Naruto!

3rd Chapter!

At the beginning of the class, iruka asked everyone to introduce themselves with their name and age to the class. Yato didn't pay much attention to the presentations of the others, except for the students who seemed interesting to him. 

Soon it was his turn to introduce himself. He got up from his seat and began to introduce himself without any enthusiasm:

"Yato Ken, I just turned seven!" Finishing his words, he turned his head to the outside and paid no more attention to what Iruka spoke again.

Girl 1: "Hey, hey, Yato-kun is also very cute right?"

Girl 2: "Yeah, but he doesn't look like he's in the mood for do  friends!"

Girl 3: "Humph, but he's even worse than my Sasuke-kun!"

constant murmurs  began to rumble in the class causing Iruka to give a soft yell to calm them down.

SAKURA: "Hmm? Isn't this the same boy that time? Looks like he's in our class too…" Sakura said in a tone of surprise to the blonde girl beside her.

INO: "Eeh, do you still remember him? Looks like the uchiha isn't the only one on your head!!" Ino said mockingly. But taking a look at the boy, she also had to admit that he was very handsome.

Sakura blushed at this, but still shook her head in denial. However, only she really knew what she was thinking now.

Meanwhile, Yato was alone with his random thoughts.

(… Sigh… I forgot that in the next two years there is no form of combat and it's all theoretical class…) — Yato sighed for the tenth time today.

Even Shikamaru who was far away noticed this. 'Looks like I'm not the only one who's hating this class,' he thought.

And when he saw the boy lying on his desk, he too settled into his own and lay down as well.

Iruka continued with his lecture. Even seeing that some students weren't paying attention, he just let it go as it was only the first day yet.

With the end of class, Yato left the class last. There weren't many people in front of the academy anymore, just a few kids playing alongside their parents. 

Looking further into the corner, Yato noticed a thin boy with a sad look in his eyes.

(... It's really hard to believe! How can people be so blind when judging someone like him? ... Everyone who hated him, in the end, was saved by him... Including me! ...) Thinking about it, Yato put a childish smile on his lips before walking towards him.

"Hey Naruto! Do you want to play?" Yato said, reaching out for a squeeze.

Naruto who was lost in thought looked carefully at the boy in front of him. Then, with a gesture of his small hand, he pointed to himself.

"Y-Are you f-talking to me?"

Yato laughed at that, and then shook his head… "As you can see, all the kids are playing with their parents, and I don't have that…" — speaking so far, Yato paused for a moment..

Then, he continued: "I saw that you are alone here too and I thought: Oh, why don't I play with someone who is also doing nothing? … So I'm here! So, do you want to play?"

When he finished his act, Yato almost choked when he saw that Naruto had tears running down his eyes.

"Hey, hey, hey, why are you crying? If you don't want to play, just talk!" "Saying that, Yato pretended he was going back to his house...

But, Naruto was even quicker by holding Yato by the hem of his shirt as he spoke with a big smile on his face.

"Alright! So let's play!" —

A victorious smile appeared on Yato's face upon hearing this. They then started playing around the park.

The other children, seeing this, felt envy to see the two boys of them laughing and playing happily. But when asked if they could join them, their parents denied saying they were both bad kids.

So Yato and Naruto played around until nightfall, when Yato finally said he should go back to his room.

"Yato! We… po****"— Naruto tried to say something, but mid-sentence he muttered something almost silent and meaningless that Yato didn't understand.

But with his intelligence, it wasn't difficult to complete the sentence. 

"Alright! We can play tomorrow too Naruto!" Saying this, Yato quickly ran to his house leaving an emotional Naruto behind.

_- In a hidden location in the park!-_

"We must report this to the hokage!" _-Swoosh!-_

"We should report this to Danzo-Sama" _-Swoosh!-_

Unbeknownst to Yato, two dangerous people were already aware of his contact with the Jinchuuriki. Not that he cared even if he knew. He wasn't doing anything suspicious other than playing.

(… If I could only have some of Naruto's chakra, my life wouldn't be so complicated!…) — Yato had very little chakra, and he didn't know of a way to increase this amount beyond training and meditation. The only way he knew of was by becoming a Jinchuuriki of some tailed beast, but he couldn't do that these days.

That aside, Yato returned to his control training. He was already able to climb the walls of his house, and he was also very good at concentrating. The last step would be to walk on water.

While thinking about it, and trying to remember some things that would happen this year. He felt someone coming at high speed to his house! Within seconds a soft tapping sound sounded at her window.

_- Touch! Touch! Touch! -_

Yato walked on guard, and looked at whoever was outside through the glass.

(…Hmm? What does the Hokage's anbu want with me at this time of night?…) — Yato thought as he opened his window.

He only opened the window when he learned that he was an anbu of the hokage, as he wouldn't have so much courage these days if he were a Danzo Root anbu! He also knew how people under Danzo's command were treated, and he didn't want to be like them.
