  Ino, Shikamaru and Choji reached the treehouse.

  "Yota… Where are you?... It's us. e out to py?" The three called out to their mysterious friend.

  "Yota… Are you asleep? Wake up! It's us…" Ino called out to the person.

  Suddenly a small skinny boy popped out of the tree leaves.

  "Ino! Shikamaru! Choji! You're here." The boy was smiling looking at his new friends. He then jumped onto a smaller tree brand ughed.

  'Now who is that kid? I don't remember him from the inal series.' Daichi thought and tried to recall any information on the boy.

  At that moment the young boy named Yota saw Sakura hiding behind a tree looking at them. He looked at her for a few seds and then called out loudly.

  "Forehead!"

  Sakura, startled by the shout, slipped and fell. Daichi chuckled looking at the ic se taking pce. Shikamaru and the other two turned around and saw Sakura.

  "Oh? You're…" Choji excimed.

  "Sakura!? What are you doing here?" Ino asked.

  "How troublesome." Shikamaru sighed, rubbing his head.

  "O…" Sakura slowly stood up and looked at her cssmates. Just thetle kid ran to Sakura and called out. "Forehead!"

  He ughed and ran around her having fun. Daichi was watg the se from several trees behind. As he looked on, he felt something nd on his head. He looked up and his eyes widened. It was snowing.

  'Snowing? At this season? Something is strah the weather.' Daichi looked ahead to the ughing child. 'I’m guessing he has something to do with this.'

  Daichi stepped out of his hiding spot ao his cssmates. He saw them notig his presence.

  Shikamaru heard footsteps and tilted his head. It was then he saw Daichi walking towards them. Choji and Ino also saw him ing.

  "Daichi!? How did you get here?" Shikamaru asked defensively. He was aware of how serious Daichi could be. He was also aware of his strength. Shikamaru had an uanding as to what makes most of his cssmates tick. But he didn't know what to make of this particur one.

  Daichi came hem and stopped. "I saw you guys stealing food from the students at the academy. I got curious and followed you guys here."

  Shikamaru almost facepalmed upon hearing this. 'Of course he'd notice. We should have been more careful.'

  "Grumpy face." The little kid named Yota said pointing at him. Daichi took a good look at the kid.

  He was a small skinny boy with tan skin. He had spiky brown hair that reached his waist and short bangs hanging over his eyes. He had a wide smile on his fad Daichi could see a sharp tooth stig out of the right side of his mouth. He was wearing a full green robe with a brown cloak.

  It was at that moment Daioticed something strah the kid's eyes. 'Those eyes… He has bck sclerae…' It only took a few seds for Daichi to know where he remembered that from.

  'Reanimation jutsu!!? Don't tell me he's a reanimated zombie.'

  Daichi had a serious look on his face. He instantly used 'observe' on the boy.

  [LV.?] [Yota]

  Age: 8

  HP: ?? CP: ??

  [A reanimatioed by Orochimaru. Yota was born into a traveling who could manipute the weather and made their living. He is a naive, carefree and fun loving boy. He possesses an unusually powerful ability to manipute the weather. Even his emotions are capable of ging the weather. Due to being born with a frail body he died of natural causes not too long ago. Orochimaru left him as a test subjed is not actively trolling him.]

  "What's with the look Daichi?"

  Just as Daichi finished reading the information, Shikamaru questioned him.

  Daichi let out a small sigh. 'Thank god this kid isn't going to wreak havoc or anything… I hope.'

  "It's nothing… He's not from the vilge is he?"

  "No. If they find out an outsider is within the vilge, it'll cause trouble for Yota…" Shikamaru said.

  Daiodded in agreement. "Yeah. Especially with the current tensioween the vilges. How did he eve here?"

  Choji had a sheepish look on his face at that question. Shikamaru sighed and answered. “Choji ractig his kunai throwing skills and he actally pinned Yota to a tree… That’s how we found him. Since he was just a kid looking for someoo py with, we figured it would be best if we kept this a secret.”

  At this point Yota jumped and stood in front of Daichi. He pointed his finger and ughed.

  "Grumpy!… Grumpy!… Grumpy!"

  He ran around Daichi as if he ying around. Daichi chuckled looking at the antics of the little kid. 'For a sed I thought this kid would have some malicious i being a reanimation and all… But it looks like I'm wrong. I guess there's nothing to worry about.'

  "Forehead… Forehead… Forehead." Young Yota then ran around Sakura ughing at her. Sakura puffed her cheeks as she looked at the kid. "Hey don't make fun of me."

  "What's your name kid?" Daichi asked even though he knew.

  "I'm Yota."

  "Where are you from?"

  "Nowhere!" Yota kept ughing and answered. "Kon Kon Kon… it's snowing! Kon!"

  "Looks like he took a liking to you guys." Shikamaru smiled.

  Daichi looked around and saw the falling snow. "Is it snowing because you're happy?" He asked the boy.

  "Um!" Yota nodded.

  "That's a pretty cool ability." Sakura chimed in.

  "Yeah!" Ino agreed as well.

  Daichi looked at Shikamaru and said, "I take it you three stole the food for him?"

  The young Nara sighed and simply nodded.

  "Here. You have mioo." Daichi handed his food to Yota. The boy jumped with excitement. "Yay. Food for my tum tum!"

  "So you'll keep this a secret? You won't tell the adults about him?" Shikamaru asked Daichi.

  "No. He doesn't look like he's here to cause trouble. I'll keep this between us."

  The young Nara simply nodded and smiled.

  Reputation increases with Shikamaru, Ino and Choji.

  All of them gathered he treehouse and watched Yota eat the food he had. It was snowing and soon there was enough snow to py around with. Once he ate his food they started pying.

  Daichi build a snowman and then id on the ground and made snow angels. They had snowball fights and rode sledges.

  For the first time since being a part of this world, Daichi had fun pying with kids his age. He enjoyed spending time just goofing off. That day he made some true friends.

  —--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Shikamaru and the others would go py with Yota everyday after the academy. Unfortunately Daichi couldn't spend all his time pying around. But he'd give Shikamaru some food t to Yota.

  It was a Saturday m. Daichi was currently at home trying to trol his chakra and ging it to earth nature. He then took a stone and started his shape transformation training. He remembered what his grandfather had said when he inquired about the affinity training.

  ‘The ge in chakra nature is an advanced form of chakra trol that entails molding and defining the nature of one's chakra. Altering its characteristid properties to use in jutsus. Then there’s the ge in chakra form.’ He could remember what Kensei said all those months ago like it was yesterday.

  —------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Fshback:

  "Hey gramps… How do I go about creating a jutsu?" Daichi asked Kensei one m after breakfast.

  The old man thought for a few seds befiving his answer. "Creating a jutsu is a very plicated process. As you know, to use jutsu a person weaves several hand-seals which allows them to mold their chakra a certain way allowing them to use teiques of any nature. To create a new jutsu one must have suffit knowledge about all the hand-seals and how they mold the chakra ihe body. And that's just the very basics."

  Daichi listeteo every word Kensei said.

  "The two most important aspects of creating or modifying a teique are Nature transformations and Shape transformation. Now, Nature transformation helps us ge the properties of chakra. We turn our raw chakra to fire, water, earth, lightning and wind depending on our proficy with the skill. Do you uand so far?"

  Daiodded. Kensei tinued.

  "Noe transformation or ge in chakra form as some say, deals with the ges in actual form, movement and range of the teique. It helps us alter the abilities of a jutsu."

  "I uand. But what about Yin and Yang chakra? I read that they help isu and mediinjutsu!" Daichi asked.

  "It's true. There are several teiques that fall uhe category of Yin and Yang release. The Nara 's shadow jutsu's are based on Yin nature chakra while the Akimichi 's body jutsus fall under Yang release." Kensei said.

  "Yin is based on the spiritual position of the chakra and Yang is based on the physical part, isn't it?"

  "Yes Daichi. But using the jutsus that require yin and yang nature transformations are extremely difficult even for adults. The reason that ordinary people 't use a 's secret teiques is because members of a are predisposed to their affinity when they are born. It's why you don't see an Akimichi using a shadow possession jutsu and vice-versa." Kensei wao make sure Daichi khe difficulty of attempting such a task.

  "What about elements that fall outside of the basic 5? Like ice or ve teique?… Or wood style jutsu?" Daichi asked.

  "Reading up on the first Hokage and other vilges, have we?" Kensei lightly chuckled.

  "Daichi! Do you think you're the first one who had these thoughts?... There were tless people who mastered 2 affinity and tried to bihem to create a third new element. But they weren't successful. It's why we call the shinobi who use elements like that, 'Kekkei Genkai' users. One must have a geic advantage when trying to use teiques like that."

  "But hypothetically, it be done? If a person has absolute trol over multiple affinities, they create it?" Daichi was going to max out his skills and try to bine different affio create new elemental jutsus. Or at least that's his pn. He wao know his grandfather's opinion iter.

  Kehought long and hard about this question. And after sometime gave him an answer. "For a person who doesn't have a Kekkei Genkai I'm gonna have to say no. When you master multiple natures, using those individually is an easy task. But using them simultaneously is a different matter altogether. So that's why even if you master all 5 chakra natures, unless you have a Kekkei Genkai you won't be able to bihem… But…anything is possible in this world. So who knows…"

  Kehen looked at Daichi. "I don't want you to try and do too many things at once. You'll only hinder yourself that way. Right now we know your natural affinity is earth. Start with earth nature chakra. Train in it. Then when you have reached advanced mastery, we'll try the others. This is advauff. I'm only starting you on it because your talent is far greater than others. But that doesn't mean it's going to be easy. Do you uand?"

  "I uand Gramps." Daichi replied in a serious tone indig he uood the importance of the task.

  Keook Daichi outside and both of them sat down on the ground. "I want you to feel the earth. The ground, the small pebbles, the soil beh you…" Kehen gave Daichi a small stone made of cy. It was half the size of Daichi's fist.

  "We're going to start on the 'shape ging' aspect of your chakra. This is a very simple and basic trainihod for earth affinity users. It's just to get you to feel the way your chakra responds to you… Now trate and pour some chakra into the stone." Kensei began his lesson oh manipution.

  "Your chakra is an aspect of you. And sih is your natural affinity you have a much greater e to it than those who do not. Remember how your chakra would feel when you use ah jutsu? Close your eyes and trate on that."

  Daichi closed his eyes as he held the stone. He would always try to feel what his chakra would be like when he performed the 5 basic jutsus he knew. Daichi focused and started flowing his chakra into the stone. Ohe outer yer of the stone was coated in his chakra he slowly pushed his chakra to pee into its core. Coating it pletely after a few minutes.

  "Excellent. You're progressing faster than I thought." Kensei plimented.

  Skill Chakra Flow's level has risen by one.

  "Now imagihick sheet of paper. Use the chakra and slowly reshape that round stoo a square pne."

  Daichi slowly moved his chakra. He could feel every part of the small stoh his energy. It took time but he moved his chakra in and around the storying to break it down and reshaping it. After about 20 minutes he was successful. In his hand was a thin square sheet made from bsp;

  "Wonderful. To think you actually got it on your first day. That's impressive." Kensei was amazed at Daichi's talent.

  Skill Earth affinity's level has risen by one.

  [A new skill is created with a specific a.]

  [By successfully trating and infusing chakra throughout an objed ging its shape, the skill 'Creation' has beeed.]

  'Huh.? Wasn't expeg that.' Daichi thought as he read the notification.
