    (2 Training actions, 3 Studying, 3 Social)

    Shisui's birthday comes and goes, and Itachi is there, this time without Sasuke. You don't get to speak with either of them, though, because what seems like the entire clan is around.

    You mingle with the guests, meeting various boys close to Shisui's age. They are all surprised by the fact you can speak clearly at your age, but you quickly tire of them; they are not close to Shisui - they're too stupid and annoying to be.

    So you go back to your father, listening to an exchange between him and an old man. The old man says, "remember what I said, Suiho."

    "Very well, Elder Arkidi," your father says, and you barely control yourself, not to burst into guffaws.

    'Arkidi' sounds like a very, very rude thing to call someone in Greek. You are glad you're multilingual at moments like this.

    You barely dodged meeting Elder Arkidi! Luck D+ (halfway through C-) -> C-

    After the old man has left, your father asks you, "what's so funny?"

    "That old man's name," you whisper in his ear, "it sounds like something I would call Grandmother when I first met her."

    Suiho shakes his head in exasperation.

    Your own birthday party is a quiet affair; Itachi and Sasuke are not around, and your father wanted a quiet celebration. The next year, though, he will introduce you to the clan officially. You find it ironic that you were born on February third, just like 'before'.

    -----

    Your mother wanted you to start you on something called Fuuinjutsu, and your grandmother hasn't told you much about it. So, Mama explains.

    "Let me get this straight," you say, "with Fuuinjutsu, one can store something in a pocket dimension?!"
    "I'm surprised you know what those are," Korin says, "but yes, that's one of the main things Fuuinjutsu is capable of."

    "There's more!" You say, very surprised.

    Your mother nods, then gets you started. First, she tests your calligraphy, which she finds 'passable'. Passable your ass. Then, she starts teaching you the theory of Fuuinjutsu. The two of you repeat that many times over the year, and you both have a lot of free time, so you progress a lot.

    Your mother congratulates you on 'decent' progress. She says that, but you can see the pride in her eyes. Korin is a surprisingly harsh taskmaster and critic when she teaches you.

    Spent two out of three 'studying' actions. 'True Genius' activated. 'The Bamboo's Descendant' activated.
    The Skill 'Sealing' has been created at F. Skill has progressed! F -> E rank.
    You now know how to use (not make!) explosive tags and storage seals!

    You only train your body a little during this year, and mainly concentrate on improving your sensing.

    Spent half a training action on your body. 'Let's Flicker' activated; 'Super Prodigy' activated. Speed has gone up by a (+)

    You ask your mother to supervise, but not to disturb your meditation.

    She says, "now you know how to meditate? You're full of surprises, Rin!" With a laugh.

    You get into a stance your mother has just shown you, complete with a one-handed hand-seal.

    Now that you're in a meditative trance, you can feel the presence of your mother; it is rather distinctive. You can also tell her energy is bright and yellow-colored*. To you, the Uchiha happen to be either a shade of purple or blue.

    You get further into your trance. You can tell Shisui isn't around; he has a mission, you already knew, but you now know why you've been restless this day; you can't sense him, and it has you out of sorts. Your father is close-by to another male Uchiha, one who has more powerful and controlled energy than him. The clan head…? Then, the woman who has even more controlled energy must be Mikoto, the man's wife.

    You concentrate more, but you can't find Itachi anywhere. You do manage to find what feels like a toddler, though; Sasuke has incredibly powerful 'Chakra' for his age. That you can even tell he's there speaks volumes of his potential.

    You sense a disturbance in Mikoto's Chakra; did she notice someone is spying on her? You withdraw back into your body.

    "So," your mother says immediately, "what did you sense?"

    You tell her that you felt your father near who you thought was Fugaku-sama and Mikoto-dono, and that you caught tell of a boy your age, who must have been Sasuke.

    Korin tilted her head. She said, "are you certain you felt Sasuke? He's too young to have such developed Chakra; maybe your mind filled in the gaps."

    You shake your head and say, "no, I know what I felt. Sasuke's Chakra felt almost more… potent than Itachi-san's when I sensed him before, yet I'm certain it was a toddler's energy, not someone older's."

    "Interesting," your mother says, "it seems like I'm not the only mother blessed with two prodigies," she murmurs then, though you have to strain yourself to hear her.

    You preen under the covert praise.

    You repeat the experiment until you feel you cannot progress any more over the next few months.

    You have spent 1.5 training actions! 'Super Natural Sensor' has activated; 'Omake bonus: greatly' has activated!
    Eye's Mind of the Kagura has leveled up! D+ -> B-
    Note that until you have unlocked your Chakra, there is a malus, so it's effectively one rank or so below what it is supposed to be. You cannot level this up further without your Chakra, either.

    You study with your grandmother at her home, and she decides to teach you the Uchiha style of Fuuinjutsu.

    "Our clan has a Sealing Style?" You say, surprised.

    The old woman cackles. She says, "of course we do! We might not be quite as naturally talented in the field as the Uzumaki, but we're still good at everything we truly try in!"

    You think that she's not very fond of the Uzumaki, one in particular, so you decide to needle her. You say, "do I perhaps detect some envy?"

    Nanako's smirk disappears momentarily, only to return as a toothy (slightly toothless) grin. She says, "and what do you think I have to be envious of?"

    "I don't know, you tell me, Grandma," you say, "is it the fact that another clan surpassed us in something?" Innocently.

    Nanako cackles again. She says, "one day, that acidic tongue will be the death of you, girl. Or your enemies' death. Or both."

    You shrug nonchalantly.

    You spend one 'study' action. 'True Genius' activates! You learn more about ninja life! (Your knowledge of physics, math and such is already at its limit). Skill Ninja Academics levels up! B- -> B
    Your reputation with Nanako goes up! C- -> C rank

    -----

    In the meanwhile, you spend as much time as you can with Shisui, your father and your mother.

    Rep. Shisui: B+ (halfway through A-) -> A-
    Rep. Suiho: D+ ->C- (Omake) -> C
    Rep. Korin: D (1/3 through D+) -> D+

    Your third birthday comes, and after you've gotten all the presents, your father offers to walk you through unlocking your Chakra. He seems a bit reluctant, but who cares!

    []Unlock your Chakra
    []Not yet

    Flaw 'Impulsive - moderate-high' activates

    "I'd love to!" You say.

    Thus, your father guides you through a meditative trance. It's child's play to manage the first step. "What now?" You say.

    Your father instructs you to reach for your own energy, making a hand-seal.

    You thought he was a good teacher, judging by Shisui! This kind of instruction doesn't help much!

    Still, you use your sensory, but this time, look into your own body. You go deeper and focus more, and you find… a kind-of circulatory system? You look for some point where you can access it, until you find two kinds of energies combining on their own in your belly. You draw out some of that, then you 'mold' some more by combining the two energies manually after a bit of trial and error.

    You get out of your trance, only to see your father with an open mouth and an activated pair of Sharingan. You suppress a shudder; your mother's red eyes have gotten you used to such eye colors, but this Sorcery Trait slash Mystic Eyes is rather creepy-looking.

    He says, "that's… a lot more Chakra than I thought. What did you do?"

    You tell him how you 'molded' more Chakra than you had immediately available, like your grandmother had spoken of.

    Suiho seems ready to cry in joy, but then he sobers up. He tells you, "the life of a prodigy isn't an easy one, Rin. You have to make sacrifices, experience terrible things, lose people. Remember that, but don't give up. Ever."

    Then, he goes on about his father's philosophy of a true Shinobi being a nameless person who protects peace from within the shadow of self-sacrifice.

    You remember how being a Magus required you to sacrifice a lot of things, and how the responsibilities of Second Owner didn't break you, and you smile confidently.

    Suiho sighs and says, "sorry I rambled on like that."

    He sees the smile on your lips and reaches the correct conclusion. He says, "I'm glad you're so confident. Just take care not to let it turn into arrogance. Arrogance blinds you; some members of the Uchiha have forgotten that," and murmurs something about an idiot named Yashiro**.

    You decide to try Reinforcing something with Chakra, but you fail to do that to the spoon you've grabbed. You do eventually make it stick to your hand, though… only to fall on your face soon afterward for some reason.

    Trait 'Shaky Connection - Moderate' has activated for the last time! You are three years old. Your memories of a past life have become permanent; Trait 'Shaky Connection' has been lost.
    Your Chakra Control has gone up! F+ -> E-

    Pick 1:

    []Go to the Park
    +It's outside the Uchiha district. You may meet new, non-Uchiha people there!
    []Visit the head family
    +You can tell Sasuke is somehow important, beyond being the Head's son. So let's go needle him!

    *Naruto's Chakra is yellow-colored in the Manga.
    As for Yashiro, he's the MORON who provokes Itachi (along with another idiot named Tekka) after Shisui's death and nearly gets killed as a result, saved by the bell (Sasuke being around).

    Oh right, that strange ideal of being faceless and nameless peace keeper. It will not work because people respect walking nukes for existing more than hard working loyalist.

    Too tightly sealed. We'd need insane levels of Sensing, and even that would only let us realize that his Chakra is being disrupted by something.

    Thank you! Now, two more questions.

    Does getting A- with Shisui unlock some kind of unique option with him? Or does it not provided any unique bonuses?

    Also, how many +s do we have applying to Chakra again?

    1. Not yet

    2. It's E rank now, unless I'm terribly mistaken. (Up from F rank.)

    Guys, I admit to having one goal at the moment. Hitting A- Ninja Academics by the time we enter the Academy. In theory, it will allow us to focus on the more physical aspects.

    A- is enough to pass the first exam of the canon Chuunin exams without cheating, answering some (most?) of the questions.

    @Deathbybunnies : she's too proud to skip anything, but she might decide to study something else during it.

    If we know all the stuff already, we could maybe call in "sick" to all of the theory classes? Do we get failed for lack of attendance?

    Unfortunately? Probably. Fortunately, we can probably pull off the old Nara trick of sleeping in class!
