Chapter 9
[Hidden Forest Village, The Southern Gate Den]
9:15AM, Day 4
KuraiThe boys dropped to their knees, breathless.
"That was some big, powerful jutsu you did there boys!" Daichi exclaimed.
"Where did you learn such a jutsu? It wasn't from class, I know that much." He continued with a grin.
The boys looked at him, curious to his interest and Daichi could see it in their eyes.
"Well.. I guess I should be going home now. Bye bye." Daichi said in a tone as if he had a skip in his step.
As the boys arrived home, exhausted after using near to all their chakra reserves, they were welcomed by their mother and father.
"Hey boys! How are your friends doing?" Onimaro asked but Kazuki just went to his room.
"Is your brother okay?" Mika asked Kurai with concern.
Kurai nodded and went to his own room.
Hours passed and the boys finally submerged from their room and sat down for dinner with their parents, ate quietly, and decided to tell their parents what happened today.
"What?!" Onimaro shouted at the table.
"And you say uncle Remi taught you this technique?" Mika said puzzled but Onimaro knew of the technique, it was the very technique they practiced whilst growing up but they were Chunin at the time. The boys mastered it before even graduating which gave concern and happiness to their father.
Onimaro decided to take this to the Kage to which the Kage was surprised.
"And they have it mastered, you've witnessed this?" The Kage asked in disbelief.
"Well, no, but I do not take my boys as liars, sir." Onimaro begun to vouch for his son's, sure they were telling the truth as they had no reason to lie.
"Very well, they will take the Genin Exam early. If they pass they will begin to go on missions in a squad under a Jonin ranked ninja who I will personally assign them to." The Kage explained to Onimaro is a very serious tone for such a matter. This was rarely done only for ninjas that showed potential were granted early access to the exams and permitted to graduate early. This would be a first for the Himitsu family though.
The next day Kurai got up and looked out his window. His father told him that he would be taking the Genin exam early along with his brother. This excited and scared Kurai as he was unsure if he was ready for such a quick test.
Kazuki came into Kurais room. "Hey bro." Kurai said to his little brother as he walked in.
"You excited for the test?" Kazuki asked in response to his brother.
The two seemed to be doing better after their friend passing. This was due to their revenge on the killer. They were satisfied their friend could rest in peace now.
The two got dressed and was waiting for their parents to get ready to take them.
"What's taking them so long?" Kurai complained.
"I have no idea but we're going to be late at this rate." Kazuki followed up on what his brother was saying.
"Sorry, sorry!" Their parents came rushing out and hurried their sons to the door.
"We kind of overslept, our bad. Now quick, or you will be late!" Mika said to her boys.
Kurai thought this was ridiculous. They
knew they were going to be late but it was
their fault yet she was making out it wasn't.
As Kurai was about to argue, his brother nudged him and shook his head quickly to remind him what happened last time they tried to argue a case similar to this with their mother. It was like the beast raid on the village a few years back.. Well, it seemed that way to them.
As they arrived at the school. Their parents kissed their foreheads for good luck as they watched them enter the hall.
"Good luck boys! Make the Himitsu proud!" Onimaro beckoned to his sons.
They waved back, confident that they'd pass the exam after all their early studying before even reaching the age to enter the academy.
