== Kazuko Visits the Academy 2/28/2016 ==
Kazuko: *It was early morning in the village and Kazuko sat on a bench outside of the library she had left the house early that morning and had not checked to see if Ryuu had left and she knew Kazuki was not in bed but had no clue where he was. It was different since they had all returned from the exams they hadn’t seen much of each other always ending up off on missions or doing things to prepare for the festival coming up. She had already done all her preparations and bought everything she needed so now she was free to relax a bit unless she got a mission. Her emerald eyes scanned over the street young children where all heading in the direction of the Academy to start their classes for the day. She enjoyed seeing their smiling faces as they all joked and walked in pairs or groups but there were still a few that walked alone some looking sad and disappointed as they walked behind others. She wondered if those kids had friends or families to help them with their studies or if they were like her whom had to learn everything herself. She sighed softly lifting a strand of her crimson hair with her left fingers and twirling it between them as she got to her feet. She started to walk towards the small stand that sold warm breakfast bento’s knowing that she hadn’t eaten anything she approached the cart and ordered herself a small breakfast bento with eggs rice and red meat and waited for it to be made. She stood off to the side so others could order if they wished and waited. She hadn’t been waiting more than three minutes when the man called her name and she approached him and took the bento thanking him and paying before she headed to a nearby table and sat down and began to unwrap her food she started taking small bites of her rice and eggs and meat slowly enjoying the food. After she was about half done with eating a brownish colored bird with green eyes landed in front of her on the table. She tilted her head as the bird stole a piece of her eggs and she shook her head and spoke. * “Bad bird that’s my meal” *she attempted to shoo the bird but it just held out it right leg and that’s when she noticed it had something tied to its leg. She shook her head and glared at the bird her green eyes watching it closely as she reached forward and untied the note. * “Well why didn’t you give it to me right away silly bird.” *she lectured the bird as it flew away and she then opened the letter slowly unwinding it with her left hand as she ate with her right. She finally got the letter opened and read it through. It was a mission she was instructed to head over to the Academy and help out with one of the classes that was working towards graduation and learning jutsu’s she was to help them practice and learn the Transformation Technique. This wouldn’t be a hard task at all as long as the academy students weren’t in rare form.  She folded up the note and placed it into her pocket as she finished up her food and gathered up her rubbish. She made her way to the trash throwing it out and then started off in the direction of the Academy. *
Kazuko:*It took Kazuko about five minutes walking to get from where she had been to the entrance to the Academy. However, classes had already started for the day and she sighed softly as she opened the door and made her way into the large school like building. There where multiple classrooms and she couldn’t remember which one she was supposed to be helping with so she reached into her pocket and pulled out the note once more scanning it for what classroom number it was once she found it she laughed softly it was class room 201 a classroom she had once been in. She knew exactly where it was and walked in the direction finding the stairs and climbing them to the second floor. She reached the top of the stairs and made her way down the hall for the first classroom on the second floor. Before she knocked she would replace her mask like rebreather onto her face and the she knocked once she heard that come in she entered the class room and bowed her head to the instructor in the room. The Sensei of the class smiled at her and spoke.* Sensei: “We have a guest speaker today whom is going to help you all work on your transformation Technique.” *He then motioned for Kazuko to join him in the middle of the front of the classroom where all the students could see her. She was a bit nervous as she made her way next to him and looked up over all the future genin of Amegakure knowing well enough that one day they could be her students though she hopped not. She forced a smile as she looked up and after a few seconds spoke.* “My name is Uzumaki Kazuko and I am a Chunin of Amegakure.” *she waited a few seconds after introducing herself  for the students to go silent again her emerald eyes scanning over their faces. They all looked so young it was odd to her being she had only graduated a little over a year ago from the academy herself and shook her head focusing herself once more before speaking. * “I’m going to be helping you out today in honing your skills before the graduation test happens.” *she smiled soflty under her rebreather type mask and waited for them to once again focus she forgot how short the attention span of a academy student was.*
 Kazuko: * She waited once again for them to settle down before she once again spoke.* “Do you have any questions for me before we begin?” *She then watched as a few little hands flew up and a bunch of the other students just started shouting out questions over each other. It was a lot to take in and she couldn’t answer them all at once so she didn’t answer any of them only spoke once more.* “One at a time raise your hands.” *she waited for them to all stop shouting and then slowly raise their hands. She looked around and called on a cute brown haired girl whom was sitting in the back top row of the seating. She had already had her hand up even when everyone was shouting over each other. She asked her question it was about what it was like to be able to do missions. Kazuko thought about it for a minute then answered. * “Missions are hard work and some of them are less fun than others but you have to do them to the best of your ability even if its something that you don’t really want to do.  My teammates have helped me get through some of the missions I would have rather not done but the village comes first and completing missions is what a Shinobi is for.” *she then called on a boy with blue hair whom was also sitting in the back but more to the left he asked about what it was like to be outside the village and she could only laugh softly as she answered.* “You see I have only traveled outside the village on a few occasions most of the time it was short distances just into the forest or to the boarder to gather things for Missions but the chunin exams were held in the land of fire so that was the only time I have gone to another place outside of our village. It was warm and sunny completely different then here in Amegakure but this is home.” *she took a few more questions and answered them to the best of her ability and then she got everyone settled once more.* “Alright that’s all the questions now we are going to practice our transformation technique.” *she said this and waited for everyone to once again focus on her.* 
Kazuko: *Once again everyone’s focus was on Kazuko as she stood in front of the class of twenty young academy students. She had answered their questions and now it was time for her to show them the Transformation technique. This was one of the basic jutsu that all shinobi knew and she wasn’t sure they would all catch on fast. She steadied herself and focused her chakra gathering it as she began to form hand seals First the Dog then she moved her hands into the boar and finally she finished off with the ram. She then transformed herself into a perfect copy of a giant orange frog. She only held it for a few seconds then released it and smiled.* “There are times when transformation jutsu will be needed to transform yourself into something other than other shinobi or people as I just showed you with the frog it is possible to transform yourself into animals though it takes a bit more work however you will all begin by turning into me. One at a time please come forward and show us your Transformation technique.” *The young stduents each came forward one at a time showing her their transformation most of them were good but she noted a few made her ear bigger then they were supposed to be or her hair was a shade off in color or the wrong length but they were all good attempts she noticed that one little girl had not come forward yet and kept moving herself further back in line. It took about twenty or so minutes to get through the other students before she had no choice but to come forward she was shorter then Kazuko with blonde hair and green eyes she was tanner then kazuko but not by much. She did the motions and kazuko noticed right away that the placement of her hands during the seals was off and as she made the clone appear it was short only about the size of the girls original height as well as the hair color was the girls natural blonde. The other students all started to laugh and that made Kazuko angry she gently reached out for the girls hand and took her off to the side.*
Kazuko: *Kazuko knelt down in front of the girl and spoke to her in a soft tone.* “Don’t let them get to you they are just trying to show off they didn’t get it right the first time either.” *she smiled under her rebreather like mask before she continued to talk.* “Your hand seals were a bit off you have to make sure that they are correct as well as making sure you are picturing the person down to the smallest detail in your mind.  Try again.” *Kazuko then stood up and stepped back the girl would once again do the hand seals however again they were slightly off. Kazuko would then stop the girl before she did the jutsu.* “Here watch me do the seals as I do” *Kazuko would then slowly form the first hand seal Dog and wait for the girl to do the same. Once the girl had the dog hand seal in the right placement Kazuko would then move her hands to the boar seal. The girl would do the same though It took her a moment to get the placement correct once it was Kazuko would move it to the last one Ram the girl would move her hands as well and soon they were in the right spot. She would smile at the girl and repeat the hand seals in order Dog then boar then ram and the girl would do the same after about the third try Kazuko would let the girl go all the way through and do the jutsu. The girl did it and the transformation was perfect. Kazuko clapped her hands and so did the Sensei as the girl blushed and ran back to her seat. Kazuko would smile at the class and move back to the center.* “No matter how long it takes someone to learn a jutsu don’t laugh at them you never know what they are going through weither they have someone at home that can help them or even if they have a home or not. Keep working and I look forward to seeing you all as genin.” *Kazuko would smile and wait as the class all said their goodbyes to her.*
Kazuko: *Kazuko would smile and say her goodbye and let the sensei take back over his class as she made her way back out of the academy and into the raining streets below. She slowly walked through the down pour of water her open toe black sandals splashing in the puddles that had gathered on the stone ground. She had some fun at the academy helping them go over their transformation jutsu she had forgotten how hard it was to learn that jutsu back when she was in academy now it came natural to her. That poor little girl though…them all picking on her how cruel they didn’t know if she had a family or anyone to help her learn they had no right…Kazuko had this one her mind the entire time she walked from the academy to the office where she turned in her mission report and then headed back to the house she shared with Kazuki and Ryuu. It was still early in the day and she figured she would see if either of them where up to doing something else before it got too late if not she would sit around the house and relax.* 
== Conclusion: ==
Kazuko was asked to help out at the academy with the students and helped them learn the transformation jutsu she helped a young girl figure out what she was doing wrong and get the jutsu done correctly. Over all the mission went well and she enjoyed it but doesn’t look forward to dealing with students again for a long time.
