Naruto: New Beginnings
Episode One: Tri-Village Academy: Day One!


Akkii never knew his last name. He knew next to nothing about his parents or clan. All he ever knew was that his father wanted him to become the greatest ninja he could be. His first memory was being raised by ninjas, within the Hokage's own house. When he was old enough, Naruto Uzumaki, the fifth Hokage, showed him the letter his dad had left with him. From that day, he vowed to become exactly what his father had asked, the best ninja he could be. Now it was graduation day, and Akkii was ready to receive his headband and position as a Genin.
“Hello, students.” Sakura Haruno, the ninja who had been assigned to give this lecture began, “My name is Sakura Haruno, but you can call me Sakura. You're all here because you earned the right to become Genin and advance to the next stage of your training. However, some of you have proven TOO good. They will not receive the Genin headband as of today.”
Gasps of indignant surprise began to spread throughout the students. Sakura waited until they died down to continue. “These fifteen will be sent to one final course to graduate with the highest honors possible.” Cheers replaced the moans and complaints that they had earlier expressed. “Now then, graduating at the top of the class, Nankou Feerasi!”
“Nankou...” Akkii's irritated mutter was hardly audible over the roar of cheers.
“Next up, Akkii! Following them, Dentou Lukii! The three of you will be going into the tri-village program! Now, for best Taijutsu...” Sakura's further announcements were lost on Akkii as he pondered the implications.
“Nankou, me, and Dentou...the three best, eh? Well we'll see who graduates this tri-village thing on top!”

Episode Two: Day Two! One Rivalry Over, and a New One Begins![/i]


“Alright, listen up, 'cause I'm only gonna say this once!” A Jonin bellows throughout the lecture hall. “You're the best of our academy students this year, but it remains to be seen just what that means. You'll each be placed in different groups of three, one student from each of the villages participating per team. Konoha, Suna, and Kumo.”
“So I don't need to worry about being teamed with Nankou. No more rivalry.” Akkii thinks.
“Ok, team one. Nankou Feerasi, Feakii Eninaki, Goma Nisuki. Team two...” the Jonin continues.
“That takes care of that.” Akkii thinks.
“Team six, Akkii, Umaki, and Seia Irroki...” the Jonin says, finally coming to Akkii's team.
“Never heard of them, but then they're supposed to be from other villages.” Akkii stands, walking through the door marked six.

“Hello, I'm Zemitue Desu of the village hidden in the clouds. I'll be your sensei, team six.” the tall, dark haired man standing in front of the three students says. His green vest contrasts somewhat with his black outfit, and his headband is tied around his right shoulder. Interestingly, he wears a metal glove on his right hand which has spikes on the knuckles.
The boy sitting to Akkii's right wore a black, long-sleeve shirt with black pants. He also had a sword strapped to his back in a “sheath” made of mummy-like cloth. The blade was curved, and the handle was long, ending in a loop, much like a Kunai. The girl to Akkii's left had a white shirt with light blue pants and a coat to match. She had red hair, tied in a ponytail with light blue cloth. Akkii himself had on a red short-sleeved shirt and black shorts. The Cuunin in front of them raps the board with his glove to return their attention to him, “Now then, Akkii, Umaki, you two are about to duke it out in an arena.” The dark-clothed student stares at Akkii, who stares back, both with anticipation in their eyes.
