Meeting Shisui Uchiha!

"Big brother!" Sasuke ran toward Itachi with Naruto and me following him.

"You brought your friends over?"

Sasuke nodded.

"Tsuki and Naruto want to join us in training, and you said you'd train me if I brought him over." Sasuke pointed at me.

I started sweating a little after feeling like a spotlight was on me.

"That's right, I guess I have to live up to my word, right?"

"That'd be a first," Sasuke claimed.

These words took back Itachi.

"You're always saying 'sorry Sasuke, maybe next time.' Anytime I ask you to train, it's so unfair."

Itachi shyly smiled and looked over at Shisui, who waved his hands, not wanting to be involved…

"Itachi, you teach Sasuke and Naruto, I'll teach Tsuki, I want to see something."

Itachi nodded.

"Hey, Tsuki, come with me."

I nodded and followed Shisui.

Why wouldn't I? He's like my hero, I've read stories about him and he's easily my favorite shinobi.

"Itachi tells me you've begun training in the academy, is that right?"

I nodded.

"We just began today, it wasn't what I was expecting if I'm being honest."

Shisui tilted his head.

"What do you mean?" He asked as he prepared some Kunai and targets.

"Well, when I see you and big brother Kakashi being such highly respected shinobi and feared by many, I thought the academy is tougher because you both became what you are today through going into the academy.

But today they disappointed me with how easy the things they taught us are, I hope they get more difficult later.

Or maybe you two got so good after being on the field."

Shisui smiled.

"Just what I'd expect from someone with the Rinnegan."

I nodded.

"So, why did you bring me here? It wasn't to talk about the academy, right? Is it my Rinnegan?"

"I invited you here because I want to teach you ninjutsu, it's easy and you will be taught this in the academy later on, but I want to teach you how to master it as well as I have.

And maybe in the future, you'll surpass me."

Shisui walked up to me and ruffled my hair.

"You know, seeing you up close, you kinda remind me of someone."

"Shisui, you're teaching me the body flicker jutsu, right?"

Ignoring Shisui's comments, I went to grab a kunai, I was too excited to be trained by the Shisui Uchiha.

This kunai was the first one I've ever seen of that quality. The ones Naruto and I saw were already used and rusty.

Shisui made a hand seal and appeared in front of me in a blur.

"Wait! Do it again while I'm watching."

I observed Shisui as he showed it again.

Whoosh! Shisui moved to the side and then appeared in front of me.

"Alright, now you try it.

Just envision yourself where you want to infuse chakra, then you'll get there."

I made the hand seal and envisioned myself ahead, then I jumped ahead.

Whoosh!

I appeared ahead of Shisui.

"Well done, I'm impressed, you did it on your first try, that's already better than me when I tried it at first."

'Shisui Uchiha is impressed by me, yes!'

"But now let's try to practice it at a further distance."

Whoosh!

Shisui vanished and appeared on top of a tree.

"Sasuke said you've already known how to walk on walls and other platforms, so this shouldn't be too difficult for you."

I copied him and did it too, although once I got there, I didn't balance as well; I wobbled a little, but Shisui pulled me up.

"You ok?" I nodded.

"I'm fine, thanks Shisui."

"Big brother, why is Tsuki being taken away by Shisui?"

"What, don't tell me now you don't want me to train you?"

Sasuke shook his head.

"It's nothing like that, it's just strange, that's all." Itachi nodded.

Sasuke looked over at Naruto, who was training his shuriken jutsu.

"You're doing it wrong, you loser, that's why it's not working."

"Oh, yeah?! And what do you know about Shuriken jutsu?!" Sasuke took Naruto's shurikens and threw them.

They all hit the dead center.

"Hmph! It's that easy."

Itachi smiled seeing Sasuke.

'Man, I wish Tsuki was here, he'd show him how to throw Shurikens.' Naruto said to himself as he glared at Sasuke.

"Hey guys, check this out!"

I made a hand seal.

"Yo."

"Ah!" Naruto jumped up yelling as I appeared behind him.

"Haha!" We all laughed.

I held my hand out to him.

Naruto accepted it and smiled back.

"Shisui taught you his best jutsu?"

Sasuke asked.

I nodded.

"That's not fair, all we are just learned shuriken jutsu."

"Don't worry, Sasuke, Shisui said we'll learn this jutsu in the academy, anyway." He folded his arms.

We strayed off and went to train shuriken jutsu together while Itachi and Shisui stayed behind.

"Did you pull him aside just to teach him the body flicker, jutsu?"

Shisui shook his head at Itachi's question.

"Just confirming my suspicions.

Just like I thought, it's not only the Rinnegan that makes him special, the kid is a genius.

Today he told me he wishes things in the academy were harder, he said that the things they learn are too easy for him."

Itachi's eyes widened.

"Too easy?"

Shisui nodded.

"Anyway, you better teach Sasuke some new jutsu, or else Tsuki'll easily surpass him."

"Sasuke has already shown potential, he's nearly as good as I was at Shuriken jutsu."

Shisui shook his head.

"You don't understand, Tsuki is simply too good already, he's even better than I was at that age, eventually Sasuke himself will go to Tsuki for advice."

"Should we make this a challenge, then?"

Shisui smiled.

"You're on, but remember, you're the one who wanted this." Itachi nodded with a determined look.

"Hey, what do you think they're talking about?" Sasuke asked.

"I'm guessing they've challenged each other again, but I could be wrong."

Sasuke nodded.

"Sasuke, come here, I want to teach you a new jutsu." Sasuke widened his eyes and ran to Itachi.

"Tsuki comes with me, I can teach you a new jutsu too." I ran up to Shisui.

"Wait, what about Naruto?"

Shisui placed his finger on his chin and thought of what could help Naruto.

"What do you think he should improve?"

I also placed my hand on my chin as I thought.

"I think he should learn more about chakra control, it seems to be his weakness."

Shisui nodded.

Naruto folded his hands.

"I don't have a weakness, you know."

He murmured to himself.

"Well, in that case, you wouldn't mind doing this test for me." Naruto nodded excitedly.

Shisui took a leaf from a tree nearby and gave it to Naruto.

"What's this for?"

"If you can keep this on your forehead, I'll teach you a new jutsu."

Naruto nodded.

"Is Tsuki going to be doing this with me?"

I shook my head.

"I've already mastered this, but I know you can do it, too."

Naruto smiled and nodded excitedly.

"Alright!" He started doing the technique.
