The sun hangs low over the academy courtyard, casting long shadows across the packed dirt. A breeze carries the scent of pine and dust as Iruka-sensei's voice rings out, announcing the genin team assignments.

"Sasuke, you'll be teamed up with you." The Uchiha's jaw tightens. He turns, fixing you with a cold, measuring stare, waiting.
