A few more months have passed and it's now my first birthday officially!

I've been given a calendar and I'm now able to track how old I am. This will be extremely helpful as I've spent a whole year not knowing how old I was.

You could argue I could have asked but age was never a thing I was taught yet so I wouldn't make sense for me to be like.

"Yo how old am I!"

When Kakashi read me a book it mentioned swords, so I took that as an opportunity to ask Kakashi for a sword. I asked for a katana which I believe would be a good weapon to focus on for the time being before I start practising ninjutsu.

You could make an argument that short swords are better but this is the ninja world.

Too big to bring to a stealth mission?

Just carry it using a seal.

Too heavy?

We are shinobi, I don't think the weight of a weapon like a Katana will make too much of a difference and when you include my swift release it kinda just reinforces the fact that I should use a katana because of the extra range when striking a foe.

Also so I can have an easier experience when getting my first kill if I don't get forced into it. I'd rather get a clean cut with a katana than have to stab someone with a short sword.

I'd assume that using quick speed to quickly finish off my opponents with clean slashes is much more effective than wrecking the place with ninjutsu and destructive abilities.

Kakashi on my birthday actually got me a wooden katana that is the actual size of a real metal one. I'd know because Kakashi said so and he's never lied to me.

I think.

I've made sure not to get myself attached to Bird in anyway because of the simple fact of her being a root member.

No matter how much she "cares" for me, she will always follow Danzo's commands and if asked will kill me without question.

Now this isn't to say I hate Bird.

No!

I've just got a favourite and it isn't her

--POV DOG/Kakashi--

It's currently little Raidens first birthday, I never thought I would ever get so attached to another person again which really surprised me.

A few months ago Raiden expressed an interest in katanas and like any good older brother would do, I got a wooden one for him to train with till he's old enough for one.

I'll teach him how to hold and parry with a kunai today as he's been buggin me about it a lot lately.

Right now it's currently sometimes in the morning and I'm working with Raiden to help him with his stance and how to hold his wooden kunai.

"A little more to the side Rei." I tell him as he quickly adjust his stance

Looking at the determined kid I start to tell him about the next exercise of practising how to parry and block with a kunai.

Grabbing another wooden kunai I bought just yesterday for this I slowly but surely ingrain the stance and how to hold to kunai into Raiden as he adjusts very sloppily to my very slow hits.

'He's slow but he's only one, I can't expect Chunin level speeds can I.' I chuckle to myself

After a few more hours breeze by, Raiden and I stop our little training session to be postponed for tomorrow as we now gotta eat lunch.

Raiden will meet that old fox for the first time tonight after all.

Now sitting in the kitchen eating with Raiden and Bird I see Raiden starting to get nervous for some reason.

The kid now showing obvious signs of anxiousness starts to speak.

"Umm, Dog-san can I leave the house and explore the village anytime soon?" My eyes widen not expecting such a question for some reason.

Quickly regaining myself I look over to Bird as she uses anbu signals explaining that it depends if Danzo allows it.

"You will have to ask your grand-uncle when he comes to visit you tonight." I say

I could see Raidens shocked eyes when I said that.

We usually avoided the topic of his family name to the point of him only knowing that his name was Raiden, so him knowing he had a grand-uncle was quite a big deal.

"I'll let your grand-uncle explain your situation more later on in the day alright?" I say in a soft tone

Raiden hearing this starts to nod in a cute manner.

--POV Raiden--

"I'll let your grand-uncle explain your situation more later on in the day alright?" I hear Kakashi say in a soft tone

Hearing this I start to nod as I start to put the puzzle pieces into place in my mind.

'At this point with all my observations the only conclusion I have is that my "grand-uncle" is the one and only Danzo. I mean I don't think a kid like me would get so many privileges without me being related to someone like Danzo as there's no way the Hokage would let a root member take care of me.'

'But then again I've never heard of Kakashi joining root before so this could still be completely invalid and I'm the child of a rich civilian or village elder that is in cahoots with Danzo.' I think to myself using all the braincells I can muster up

Now the only thing I'm waiting for is sunset so I can finally meet my probably psychotic grand-uncle!
