Graduation No Jutsu
Fay was outside the classroom door waiting for Iruka to call her in and introduce her to the rest of the class. The children inside were being far too loud, but Fay didn't care. Finally, Iruka opened the door and motioned Fay to show herself. Now in front of the class, Fay gave a bow in greeting.
"Hey-ho! I am Fay. I will be taking the graduation exam with you all and will also be assigned to one of your teams. Please take good care of me."
Fay smiled through her mask and waited for questions. She didn't have to wait long. Questions were fired off with no hesitation. Most if not all completely pointless. However, there was one question that caught Fay's attention, causing her to smirk.
"Fay is a weird name. Where are you from?"
"Is it? I personally love my name. As for where I'm from? Just stick with far, far away. Besides, I don't exactly have a set home, so it doesn't matter. Now, Iruka-sensei, is there anywhere you would like me to sit?"
Fay turned her attention to Iruka, ignoring all other questions directed to her. He simply looked at Fay and shook his head. He was a little overwhelmed with all the students yelling questions. With that, Fay simply nodded and made her way through the class. There was only one seat available, so Fay took it. That seat being the one next to the one and only Naruto Uzumaki. Sitting herself down, Fay let out a sigh and rested her head on the desk. the boy beside her shuffled in his seat nervously before finally speaking up.
"Why are you sitting here?"
"Am I not allowed to?"
"Well... You can, but... Wouldn't you rather sit somewhere else?"
"There are no other empty seats though."
"What about next to him?"
"Who? Oh, you mean the empty table behind us? No, I'd rather not sit by myself thanks."
"Wha? But Sauske is sitting there, it's not empty!"
At this Fay lifts her head and looks behind her. Indeed, Sauske Uchiha was sitting alone right behind them. He wasn't even looking at Fay. So with a smirk, Fay looked back o Naruto.
"Exactly! And empty desk. Nothing but a void of emotion and waste of space."
Hearing this, Naruto started laughing. Surprisingly, Sauske seemed to react as well. Though it was with his signature Uchiha scowl. Unaffected by the stares of the enraged fangirls surrounding her, Fay laid her head back onto the desk and waited for her name to be called. Once it was, Fay shot up from her seat and walked into the exam room. Before anyone could say anything, Fay brought her hands together and three clones of herself popped into existence. Funny enough, no one could see her hand formation due to her excessively long floppy sleeves. Neither did she call out the name of the jutsu to show what kind of clones they were. Iruka smiled proudly and congratulated Fay for passing. Mizuki too complimented her, though she didn't even listen to him. Walking over, Fay grabbed a dark red headband and quickly tied it around the base of her witch hat. With a bow, Fay walked out of the room and went over to the swing outside the academy. She waited for a certain blonde idiot to show himself.
Naruto came out soon after and plopped himself down onto the swing. He didn't pass and had no head band. Fay stood next to him and frowned. Some mothers were speaking ill of him despite the fact they knew he could hear them.
"Eh, ignore them. They don't even know what they're talking about. HEY YOU! YEAH YOU HAGS OVER THERE! READ A FUCKING BOOK!"
Naruto looked up in shock as Fay not only tried to comfort him, but even insulted the women being mean to him. No one ever did that before. Not even Iruka.
"Wha-"
"Don't keep yur mouth open like that! You'll let the flies in. We don't need maggots eating you're brain! Anyway, see ya tomorrow in class. Don't be too late, got it?"
"Huh? But I didn't pass the-"
"Irrelevant! Anyway got to go. Try not to die tonight!"
Before Naruto could answer, Fay was walking away. She waved to the boy without looking at him and headed to her new house. It was secluded from the rest of the village, but still within a reasonable walking distance. Sort of. It was also well hidden from most people and rather far off into the forest. Her house was a small cottage surrounded by rose bushes and ivy. The garden was well kept and the outside of the house was clean and new looking. Inside was simply a living room, a bathroom, a kitchen, and a bedroom. Walking inside, Fay looked around her newly decorated house with a smile. There were heavy drapes, a soft rug, and other such things scattered about the house, all in various shades of purple. There were floor to ceiling bookshelves packed with books and manga. Some shelves held objects though, such as a music box, or a crystal of some sort. In her room was a large queen size bed with a thick purple comforter and was practically submerged in pillows. There was a large dark wood dresser for her clothes, and another for her ninja gear. There was also a full body mirror in the corner of the room made of the same dark wood. The bathroom was simple and well stocked. The soap and shampoo being the scent of lavender and a pair of lilac towels hung from a rack by the tub. Finally there was the kitchen. It was very small in size, but still had a fridge, sink, and oven. It was obviously rarely used from how perfectly clean it was. It could also be noted that there was no food aside from some candy and sweets. Then, scattered throughout the whole house in an organized chaos, were hundreds of stuffed animals.
Fay went to the kitchen and pulled out a bag of candy. Lowering her face mask, Fay started to snack a bit while reading a book. She kept at it until the sun set and most people were asleep. Lifting her mask back up, Fay smiled to herself and left her home. She didn't have to walk far to get to where she was headed. Coming to a clearing with an abandoned hut, Fay took notice of the three men talking. Iruka, Mizuki, and of course Naruto. Iruka was pulling a kunai out of his leg while he tried to convince Naruto to not hand over the scroll. Things escalated and soon Mizuki revealed that Naruto was the holder of the nine tailed fox. With a smile, Fay walked into the clearing like nothing was going on.
"Hey! All this shouting is making it hard for me to sleep! Why are you all even out here, huh?"
Everyone turned to Fay in surprise. Naruto was still in shock about the news. Iruka was pissed, and Mizuki was annoyed. Without warning, Mizuki threw a few kunai at Fay. But by the time they reached their intended target, Fay was already next to Naruto patting his back.
"Hey, are you okay Naru-chu? You look like you got smacked in the face or something."
But Naruto didn't seem to hear her. Instead something in him seemed to snap. With him distracted, Mizuki attacked, throwing a large shiruken at the boy. Luckily, Iruka took the hit at just the last minute and told Naruto to run.
Fay deadpanned, realizing that everyone already forgot about her. This happened to her quite often actually. Her aura was special that way, in that it made her almost invisible. She simply couldn't be noticed unless certain conditions were met. She had to make a connection with someone to be seen. Such as speaking directly to someone, purposely catching their attention, or bumping into them. Otherwise, it was like she didn't even exist. Not even the sharpest ninja could see her without following these conditions. By the time Fay calmed down, Iruka was crying and Mizu-shit was being an ass. And then, Naruto was off! Running like the wind. Run Naruto! Run with the ponies!
Fay once again dead panned seeing that there was nothing she could really do at this point. She probably didn't even have to come out here honestly. Everything from this point on was emotional drama and personal decisions. Stuff she preferred to not be involved with. So with a sigh, Fay brought a hand to her forehead and started to walk back to her home. She would just go to sleep and wait until tomorrow like everyone else. She already knew what would happen anyway. Cracking her neck, Fay made her way into her little cottage and flopped onto her bed. With little effort, she then buried herself into a mountain of pillows and fell asleep.
