Chapter 19 Preliminaries

HIRUZEN SARUTOBI

Hiruzen felt elated as he saw so many of leaf’s genin in the preliminaries. This was a good sign for the future of the village. He walked forwards and began his speech.

“Congratulations to all those who have made it thus far. Your presence here is a testament to your skill and perseverance. In the life of a shinobi, the greatest gift he has is his perseverance and the bonds he shares with his com...

DRAGONSTONE

The grey island just on the edge of Kings Landing was much less populated. Yet, the small people were astir. There was tenseness among its residents. Thousands of armed guards were drilling together. Preparing for the looming war. Their side had struck first and drawn first blood. Yet the retaliation was swift and ruthless, and now the Greens had taken their revenge. A son for a son.

Inside the castle, two people sat dressed in black. B...

“I can not believe you hid it from us for all this time. That is very uncool Wright. Very uncool,”

Amy Leighton said to me. Cedric who was sitting by her side nodded at that.

“Amy is right Edward. How could you keep this from us?” Elizabeth also teased me.

I just shook my head at that, explaining for the hundredth time.

Jiraiya watched as ten people reached the tower and completed the second phase of the exam. Three teams from Konoha and a single red-haired kunoichi. A pang of regret shot through him as he looked at her red hair. They were awfully familiar to him and reminded him of a certain hyperactive kunoichi. He looked at his sensei”.

I was still alert. Chakra circulating in the coils underneath my skin. I eyed my surrounding warily, even after Orochimaru had vanished. It was only after Hinata nodded at me, that I sheathed my sword. I turned to look at Sasuke and as he barely stood, his leg impaled by an earth spike. He was battered up. He recognized me as he nodded towards me, his shoulders relaxing. The tension leaving his body.

“Alchemy is perhaps the most wonderous art of magic. While the various branches of magic are complex with each of them being governed by certain rules and principles. Yet alchemy is the simplest in this regard as it only has a single fundamental rule.” Dumbledore spoke as he stared at the small batch of students in front of him. All of them paid attention to each of his words.

Dumbledore always felt most at eas...

SASUKE UCHICHA

Sasuke Uchiha approached Naruto, and before he could register, Sasuke made several hand seals.

“Lightning Style: Thundering palm.” And he struck the imposter in the gut. The imposter’s eyes widened and he tried to dodge but he was thrown back. Sakura threw several shuriken at the imposter and he had to jump into the air once more to dodge this gave Sasuke the time to jump across the tree at the back and before...

Thank you all for your support. This idea had been in my mind for quite some time. No schedule for its update. But here is something I cooked up.


RED KEEP

The Red Keep in the southern corner of the seven kingdoms stood and was magnificent as always. The huge castle cast a shadow across the city, whose dwellers felt their horrors grow as the incoming conflict promised to devour them all. For this was not a conflict between regular men. N...

The forest of death whizzed past us as all three of us jumped from one tree to another. The first exam had been easy enough, even without having to cheat I had been able to answer most of the questions. Yet, cheating was quite easy for me. A couple of seals previously given to Hinata and Shino had enabled all of us to share our answers.

And hadn’t that been a change he was thankful for? After Wave, both Sakura and Kakashi changed. Kakas...

“How could this happen? Two years in a row! For the castle to be infiltrated for two years, how could this happen?” She had been distraught when Dumbledore had called the emergency staff meeting. For an imposter to take the place of Alastor and for every one of them to not notice anything was mind-boggling.

She just shook her head and could see the worried expression on the rest of the staff as well. Dumbledo...

TRIGGER WARNING. SOME VIOLENCE AHEAD.

Hinata Hyuga

Hinata had changed. For years she had thought herself hopeless, not suited to her station as the heir to a storied clan of war. She considered herself too mediocre, too complacent for life as a shinobi. She often felt envious watching other people rush forward in their life without such insecurities. But she had changed for the better.

She stood straight along with the rest ...

Facing two elite shinobi on a C-rank mission. This could have easily turned into a disaster. Kakashi’s report had only mentioned the demon brothers and there had been no subsequent report. Suspicious.

Now that the threat had passed it was dull work. I had been cooped up in the Tsunami-san’s house for three days. I had been growing restless. So, I snuck out in the evening, to roam around.

Elizabeth felt a little satisfied, watching her friend squirm as all the prefects left the classroom. It was nice to see his plans fail. She saw him slouch into the chair.

“Finally, we are done for the day, I can not handle any more of this! I would rather take Snape’s class over this farce!”

At this, he looked at her, his purplish eyes completely visible, as he had put his glasses on the side.

The wave was quite far from the village. We had been on the road for about three days, rushing through the lush forest that surrounded the village.

Moving silently, purposefully, and covertly while masking your tracks were the basics that every shinobi learned.

Failure. Disappointment. Ordinary. These words were the words Hinata Hyuga was associated with. In the clan, she had been continuously compared with her cousin from the side branch. In the academy, she was pitted against the sole Uchiha. And now, in team eight she was compared to another prodigy. Shinso ken, they had been classmates for four years. He had been good during classes, yet only now as a genin, she understood that academy ranks were meaningless.

But he had expected that Hinata was the heiress of a clan with a rich history. She had been trained since chi...

Genjutsu. The second pillar of the shinobi arts. It was the most underrated and obscure of the three. There were several definitions, explanations, and applications. I liked the simplest one made by some Uchiha, ‘It was the method of altering the perception of reality.

Genjutsu was tough because for an average shinobi it required very good control of chakra, not at the medical ninjutsu level but still very good control. The exact mechanism was still debatable, but according to me, it ...

They had just graduated and were ready to move on to the next step in their journey, ultimately ending in their demise. Quick demise in most of the cases.

Out of a usual academy class, only 30 students graduated and on average only 5 reached their thirties. It was a cruel number for any village, more so for the one constructed with the id...
