"Wake up boy." Fukusho Mato's eyes slowly rose open as if he already awake waiting for a command.
"Is it already that time pop?" He complained as his father disappeared into seemingly thin air. The young boy knew from these constant drills that he was on a timer so he quickly threw on some shorts and a t-shirt before darting to his back yard. There his father stood waiting but he can tell that was not all. His father, Kai Mato's, skin glistened with sweat against the light of the moon and stars. 
"Finally awake, huh." His father badgered his grinning child as they both too their starting positions. Both ninja and future ninja began to run sprints back and forth across the yard in rapid succession. This is what Fukusho had to endure every morning since he joined the ninja academy. Like every morning he knew there was no giving up until the first hint of sunlight.  

An hour later after changing and getting ready Fukusho sat at his kitchen table. His father was fast but he thought by now he would notice him walk out the door by now. This was nothing new sine his father usually left for ninja duties far before Fukusho could even get to the kitchen in the morning. "I made you a special meal for your big day." His mother smiled as she gave him a plate. On that plate was a huge omelet. It was a treat because usually he only got a fried egg if he badgered his mother to cook for him. Fukusho usually ate oat meal and peanut butter.
"Thank you mother." The young future ninja said with pleasure in his face as he began to demolish the plate in front of him.

At the schoolhouse nothing important seemed to be going on just yet. Nagato-sensei seemed to take his usual place in the front of the room greeting everyone who showed up. Today was on record their last school day but they had no school work left to do. It was more of a graduation ceremony than anything else. Afterwards they were going to meet their sensei and start ninja missions in the near future. His parents always referred to it as his [i]great[/i] beginning. Which meant he was going to be stuck doing joke tasks for a while. But that did not matter if he got in some new training from an awesome sensei. Fukusho took his usual standing spot at the back of the room after greet Nagato-sensei. It didn't seem like anyone he liked is here yet.
