Two Thousand Club
It has been 30 years since the last great war between all the nations. Since then, there has been a rotation of power that has been inducted with the five great nations to keep them all in check. This year, the torch has been handed to our village, and with that, it will bestow our small village the right to introduce the newest generations of ninja. So far, the rotation has been through our village once before, and that generation is long been accepted and promoted through the ranks.


This year though, there are a few young students that are proving to be worthy to be called ninja. The only thing that anyone knows about, is they still have to first graduate the academy.


Among the demon country, there is a small village known only as the village hidden in the shadows. This is the tale of the newest generations of peace keepers. How will it turn out for the generations past and future?


The time is probably high noon, maybe even later. Through the silence of the children, there was a ringing. That ringing that echoed throughout the academy, was the ringing of the lunch bell. Leaning back in his seat, Riyoshi took in a deep breath and then looked towards the door.


Oh man, this is going to be a drag. My dad is going to be here and i hope he does not show off. Riyoshi thought as he slowly got up out of the chair and walked towards the door.


“Well, i guess it is time to go eat.” Riyoshi said as he exited the classroom and headed for the field that resided just outside the academy.
 
As the bell rang, Masa grinned her shark like grin as she slapped a hand down onto her desk. Standing up, she flipped a bit of hair out of her face. "Aight. We be outie." Flashing the peace sign she slid over the top of her desk and down to the front of the classroom. Heading out of the door, her punk walk on, she frowned. I hate having them be here...


Walking down the hallway, the young ninja in training nodded her head to some random beat while putting a small bit of a dance to her walking stride. Up ahead, she could see that one kid, Riashi,Riochi, she didn't really know. Didn't really care either, he wasn't 'bad' enough to want to get to know.
 
Nodoca sighed as the lunch bell rang. She looked outside while she closed her book, staring at the clouds. As everyone else was already either rushing out the door or slowly making there way to the door knowing the rush was soon to be over she slowly stood grabbing her stuff. With her stuff in hand she made her way to the exit of the room. She smiled as she saw everyone rushing around having fun, getting into fights, laughing, and everything else.


Making her way to the outside she climbed a tree sat in the cover of leaves and began eating her piece of roasted duck. She began ruffling through her bag for the book again.
 
Takeo sighed as the bell rang. He silently left his seat,and pulled his lunch from inside the deask,a rice bun and two salmon sushi rolls.


He wondered if he was the only person in the entire academy who actually made their own lunch,and brought it with them. His parents,like they deserved that distinction,only enrolled him here to keep him out of sight while they do who knows what. He passed one girl,who was dancing for some reason. He didn't even pay her note,thinking she was just out for attention. He passed another girl,who seemed like a wallflower,and thus he didn't pay her any mind.


He reached the yard,and sat against the wall,and began to eat his sushi.


Why do I even exist,if my parent's don't even care?
 
Nodoca hadn't noticed the person who had sat at the wall near the tree, she was just too busy trying to find her book. She was worried when she couldn't find it in the main section. Though she found the strong strong again. "How can I lose stuff in here, it's not like I even have all that much" She uttered lowly. She finally found the book and with a sigh of relief finding it in the 2nd main compartment. She looked back at her roasted duck and saw it already falling off the branch. Quickly throwing the book into the main pouch of the bag she grabbed her strong tied it around her shoulders and the tree branch and flipped upside down standing on the lower end of the branch missing the catching of her food. She showed great distress seeing it covered by grass now.


She did not see the person who was now behind her. Who would probably think she was using advanced Chakra control if he couldn't see the extremely small string. She stood there still bending her head upwards to look down. She sighed "I guess I could rush home..."
 
As Riyoshi exited the building and came into the large field that all the kids were now having lunch in, he looked around. He seen a couple of people that looked interesting. There was one girl that climbed into a tree, the same girl that sat in front of him in the class room.


I wonder where my father is, he is taking an awfully long time to get here. Riyoshi thought as he continued to look at the girl in the tree.


Walking over to the tree, Riyoshi looked up and pondered about her for a little. Just as he was about to speak up and talk to the girl, there was a slight ripping sound. Bringing his hand up quickly, he palmed himself in the face.


"AGH." Riyoshi muttered out before his hand slapped his face.


I can not believe that he seriously has to use that to show up here. He could have just walked here like a normal person. Riyoshi thought as he looked towards the ground.
 
Takeo quickly looked up at the sound. He saw a girl fussing over a grass covered feast of roast duck,and a boy covering his face with a single hand. He raised an eyebrow,and asked, "Did I do something?"
 
Sitting by the signing wall, Masa waited, arms folded across her chest a look of indifference across her face. "Cht." She spat on hte ground before suddenly getting smacked upside the head. "Masami! Correct your posture at once. That is no way for our family's heir to be seen."


Narrowing her eyes she looked up at none other than her father, and what's this.... Shin. Of course he'd bring him along... Staring at the two elder males, she stood up straight, looked her father in the eye and spat on the ground again. "According to you last night, I'm fit to be part of your family." Her father blinked a few times before looking mad, "You weren't suppose to hear that and that is not what I mea-" Turning his head at the ripping sound, the three looked over to see the Riyo kid hitting himself. Ain't this gonna be cute...
 
Nodoca was shocked when she heard a sudden ripping sound right near by she instinctively reached for her bag forgetting she was disobeying gravity she slipped out of one of the strings holding her up flipping around and grabbing onto the other string halting her fall but ripping her hand open.


"Gahh!!" when her bodies weight hit full on the string it tightened on the tree pulling the large branch slightly downward and jolting back upwards sending her bag flying up and the book flying out of the bag. The book fell open onto her face and the bag hit the ground near by, luckily nothing else flying out. The fall was a short one due to the strings proximity to the ground.
 
As his hand slid down his face, Riyoshi looked up towards the ripping sound. Just as everyone looked towards the noise,a large slit appeared out of thin air. A large man in a dark black cloak and a mask that covered his face, appeared from the slit and looked towards Riyoshi.


"Now what do we have here? A little ninja party?" The man said from behind the mask.


"Are you serious!" Riyoshi yelled out as he pointed towards the man.


Shrugging his shoulders, the man looked at Riyoshi and reached his hand into his cloak.
 
Ghoda smirked for a second, knowing exactly who it was before turning back on his daughter, who was raising an eyebrow at the man. Smacking her upside the head again, he scolded her, "Don't stare. As a female you should never look a man for longer than 3 seconds.Like she think she's equal, doesn't she Shin?" He turned looking at his preferred nephew who just nodded, Ghoda shot back at Masa." You have to work for that right Missy."


Masa frowned, and resisted the urge to scream as she looked down at the ground, hands tightening into fists. Leaning back against the wall, she waited for her father to find someone of actual interest to bother so her and Shin could talk for a few minutes just long enough to exchange items though neither was suppose to.
 
When the bell rang Keiko sighed; she was getting stressed out in class and her patience was waning. Standing in her seat near the back, she made sure to take her lunch with her, leaving the crowded classroom at an average pace.


Her blue eyes squinted when they met with the brighter light of outside and she looked around idly for a spot to sit. The place she chose was in the field, with most of the rest of her class, although she sat close to nobody. Instead, trying to actually get the eating part of lunch done, and starting on her rice-ball meal…
 
Nodoca heard a new voice, an adult by the sounds of it, speaking. She removed the book from her face and saw a masked figure which made her eyes widen. She unknowingly stared, however remained silent wondering what would happen next. An odd thing for such a calm day.
 
As the man reached into his cloak, the man brought his other hand up and placed it upon his mask.


"You already know why i am here." Riyoshi's father said as he removed the mask from his face.


"I do not understand why you have to be all flashy with your jutsu! This is just a lunch time and you could have walked here like the other parents!" Riyoshi yelled out as he folded his arms across his chest.


"Oh come on son. You are no fun." Riyoshi's father replied as he removed his hand from his cloak.


As he removed his hand from the cloak, he held out a bag of lunch and held it towards Riyoshi.
 
Coro awoke gently, the sun playing rays of light across his face. He yawned, then stretched. Sitting up, he blinked a few times before his eyes opened wide.


".... Damn." He said, realizing he'd slept in again. Wasn't today something important too? Whatever, he'd figure it out later! He was late!


He lept out of bed, yanking on his clothes. He combed his unruly black hair, then shook it out again. With a devilish grin, he ran for the window, but stopped just short, in front of a picture. In it was a man and woman, the man resembling Coro quite a bit. He bowed to the photo, before the door to his room burst open.


"CORO!" His sister Cassandra screamed. "You're late!"


Coro winced.


"Yeah, I know! You forgot to wake me up again!" He yelled back, shuffling towards the window.


Cassandra shook her head. She pulled some change from her pockets, and threw it at Coro, who caught every coin.


"Get something to eat on the way." She said, sighing and putting her hands on her hips.


Coro smiled, and nodded. With that, he lept out the window from the second floor apartment he and his sister shared.

Running along a fence, munching a biscuit, Coro neared the Academy. He heard people in the yard, and thanked the gods it was lunch time. He lept from the fence, onto the wall of the Academy's yard. That's also about the time he misjudged the wall's surface. The top of that wall was a lot less grippy than Coro expected.


Well, this won't be pleasant...... He thought, flipping in the air over the yard.


He landed with a dull thud, his face in the dirt. He let out a groan, somewhat muffled by the dirt his face was planted in.
 
Masa raised an eyebrow as she dared a glance back over at the one kid and the dude in the mask, who it seems was related. Tugging very gently on her father's sleeve, she pointed to him, "Isn't that Uncle Gari?"


Ghoda was about to say something again, but seeing that it was his old time friend, he stuck one hand into the opening of his kimono, using it like a pocket, and walked over, extending his hand. "Gari. It's been a while, is this your strapping youngin you came out with then?" He looked over Riyoshi with a stern eye and a lot of respect.


Masa sighed and leaned against a wall. "Nice thinking." Shin commented as he pulled out a small tin and handed it to her, taking 3 copper coins in it's place. Hiding the tin behind her, so her father couldn't see it, she smiled at her cousin. "Thanks..."
 
Riyoshi reached up and grabbed the wrapped up brown bag that his father held out in his hand.


"thank you father." Riyoshi said with massive respect.


Looking over towards the oncoming man, Riyoshi pointed towards him.


"Isn't that...." Riyoshi said as his father turned and looked at the man.


"Ah, Ghoda. What have you been up to? I haven't talked to you since what, our last mission." Gari said as he reached out and shook Ghoda's hand.


Taking his lunch, Riyoshi looked past the adults and over towards the girl that was leaning over on the wall. Taking in a deep breath, Riyoshi walked past the adults and over towards that girl.


I wonder if she will talk to me if i go over there? Riyoshi thought as he walked over to her.


As he was about 5 feet from her, he raised up one hand and waved at her, but didn't say a word, yet.
 
Coro picked himself up out of the dirt, spotting two adults talking, and a guy and girl his own age around. (Gari and Ghoda; Riyoshi and Masa)


"I'm fine!" He yelled, spitting out some dirt. "Don't all come rushing to help me up!"
 
Seeing someone coming towards them, Shin bowed to her "I'll see you later little one." With that, the elder nin was gone. Masa looked at the kid waving at her, looked around for a second making sure it wasn't jsut someone else before she nodded her head to him in a 'sup' manner. As the other boy who seemed to have fallen said something, she put her hand on her hip. "If Y'all wanted help, you could have said something rather than get all red about it, foo'."


Ghoda nodded his head. "Just about. I'd say. And you know, trying to be a proper father, teach my kid some proper lessons. And yourself?"
 
Seeing the girl nod at him, Riyoshi lowered his hand and placed it in his pocket as his other hand still held his bag of lunch.


"Hi there, how have you been?" Riyoshi said as he stood next to her.


"Do not worry about her. I think your kid and my kid will learn alot from each other. I think that there is going to be alot of learning and teaching from the two of them. I can sense it." Gari said as he looked towards the two kids.
 
Coro pouted. He stood up, strolling over to the girl with her hand in her hip, patting the boy who was trying to talk to her on the shoulder while glaring into the girl's eyes.


"Sorry bro, I'm gonna cut in on your flirting time." Coro spat, picking a rock out of his teeth. "You can tell her she's pretty and offer her a dandelion later." He finished dismissively.


Rearing on the girl, Coro grinned.


"One shouldn't have to ask for help when something like that happens." He said, motioning towards the imprint of his face in the ground. "Don't 'y'all' know common courtesy?"
 
Ghoda nodded his head, "So long as they act the way they should." Shrugging he returned to looking at Gari. "So, how's the wife?"


"Chill, bro, Chill." Masa said to the first boy, before death-glaring the second one. "I'm sorry, I didn't know you were a little girl, punk face. Man up, or I'll cap you." Straight up Gangster Masa had broken out once again.
 
Placing his hand amongst the kids shoulder, he then leaned in behind him and whispered in his ear.


"You better be careful. That there is my cousin. And over there, is her's and my father. You better not do anything to make her mad or they will be all over you like white on rice." Riyoshi said as he pointed towards his father and uncle.


Removing his head from next to coro, Riyoshi took in a deep breath and moved back towards the wall. Leaning on the wall, Riyoshi nodded towards his dad.


"The wife is good. We are discussing on another kid, but we are not really sure as of yet." Gari replied as he looked at Ghoda.
 
Coro's grin just got bigger.


"..... Your cousin? That's pretty weird bro. And we're only like, ten." He said, chuckling.


Coro rolled his eyes.


"Living with my sister has ruined me. And, newsflash bro." Coro said before placing his hand on his Riyoshi's shoulder, leaning in and whispering in his ear in the same manner. "I don't care."


Standing back up straight, taking his hand off Riyoshi, Coro looked back at Masa.


"....... Did you just switch from a southen accent to gangster slang?" He asked, blinking.
 
Masa rolled her eyes while flipping her hair out of her face,"What's it to ya, punk?" Her deathglare never dropping for an instant. Turning away from him, and completely ignoring him after that, she looked at Riyoshi, "How's it on the flip-side?" Smirking, "Need anyone to go shake it up for ya, maybe add a little more paint to it?" She was of course, referring to an old story about their elders when they were their age striping bright green and yellow paint over everything with all the branches of the family.


Ghoda nodded, "Well, whatever you decide, I'm sure it's for the best."
