The female had found her classroom; it was a little large, but both the juniors and seniors would have music classes together this year.
Marii took a somewhat deep breath and looked for a place to sit: it was still 10 minutes before the class started, but some of the students were already there.

'CRAP....'. It was time for music lesson again, which made Kabuto almost double over in agony. If it had not been for that he wanted to get a more decent grade in this subject (as well as the fact that his mother would have killed him if she found out that he skipped classes), he would have skipped this class. But he had no choice, and he was here again.
It was not music itself the male had anything against: he liked to listen to it, but to play any instrument...bah. Sure, the Yakushi did had slender fingers and a decent control on them, but he was practically tone-deaf. 'Please let something interesting happen...!' prayed the young man while he let out a small sigh.
Suddenly, his eyes caught a head with green hair. 'Hm...funny. As far as I can remember, there are no seniors or juniors with that haircolour. The closest is probably that girl with cyan hair' thought the silver-haired student. But when he saw the face, a small smile spread across his face: the glasses and the crystal blue eyes told him that it was his penpal friend Marii. "Pst, Kaze-chan!" whispered Kabuto, and hoped she heard him; she was only 6 feet away or so.

Someone bumped the petite female. "Sorry" said the person, who turned out to be a girl with bright blue hair - cyan to be more exact. "I'm fine" said Marii with a small smile. "Pst, Kaze-chan!" whispered a voice who sounded a little familiar with the girl.
She spun and saw a familiar face that sat about 6 feet away; it was a young man with silver hair in a ponytail and glasses. "Kabuto-san!" said the greenette and felt her lips curl into a toothy grin; she finally found someone she actually knew!
The female sat down next to him and picked up her music books; despite that Kumo had decent classes in music, she had to retake that subject as well. "So, how are you doing?" asked the bespectacled girl and lolled her head a little. She had not spoke to him in a week or so since she had been busy with the whole moving process.

'Looks like I am on time' thought Iruka and looked at his watch. The class would start in two minutes, so he came just at the right time. 'Hm, this class is for both seniors and juniors, so it should be all right. I wonder what students that will be in the class this year' thought the man before he opened the door.
Some of the chattering died away when he entered the room; he seemed to be the only adult there. Well, some of them were 18, so they were juridically adults too, but still. He sat down behind the teachers desk and picked up some files.
'This year, the students are going to pick out an instrument and learn how to play it...or improve their skills on it. Let's see what students we have' thought the brunett and picked up the class list. He saw that there was a name highlighted. 'Hm? Kazeraikou, Marii Kino...exchange student. Wonder what school she used to attend' thought the young man and looked at the name. His stomach turned into ice; the students previous school was Kumogakure Academy.
'Time for presentation I suppose' thought the teacher and stood up. "Silence please! Now, my name is Iruka Umino, and I am going to be your music teacher this year. I am also teaching English for the senior class and ninjutsu for all the grades" said the male and wrote his name on the blackboard.
"When I call your names, please answer. And no joking" said the Umino and picked up the attendance list. This class was a little big; it had 30 students in total. Good that they had a lot of instruments to choose.

Kabuto pushed his glasses a little further up the bridge of the nose and looked around in the classroom. 'I hope Marii-chan is better on this than me, I stink at music. I hope we get a good teacher this year' thought the male and blinked a little.
He heard the door opened and turned his head around a little to see who it was. 'Brown ponytail...brown eyes...scar across the face...heh, seems like I got my wish granted' thought the senior and felt a small tug on his lips.
'We did get a good teacher this year. Looks like our teacher is Iruka Umino' thought the young man and looked a little up. The lamp light reflected on his glasses for a second before he looked back down on his music book.
Silence please! Now, my name is Iruka Umino, and I am going to be your music teacher this year. I am also teaching English for the senior class and ninjutsu for all the grades" said the male and wrote his name on the blackboard.
"When I call your names, please answer. And no joking" said the teacher and picked up his clipboard. 'I'm probably at the bottom of the list...I suppose I can think a little about something else for a short while' thought Kabuto and looked out of the window. It was a bit of sunshine outside.

The door opened and the teacher appeared. He seemed rather young; perhaps in his mid-twenties. He had chocolate brown hair in a ponytail, chocolate brown eyes, tanned skin and a horizontal scar across his nose.
'He seems nice...he looks like a kind person' thought the female and looked a little closer at his eyes for a moment. They were rather warm. Kabuto smirked while he pushed his glasses up his nose. "Pst, Kabu-san. Have you had this guy in any subject?" whispered Marii.
"Silence please! Now, my name is Iruka Umino, and I am going to be your music teacher this year. I am also teaching English for the senior class and ninjutsu for all the grades" said the male and wrote his name on the blackboard. When I call your names, please answer. And no joking" said Iruka.
'Iruka...does not that mean dolphin?' thought the girl after he had written his name on the blackboard. Her friend looked out of the window, deep in thought. 'The names will probably be called alphabetically, so Kabuto probably won't come before at the end since his surname starts with 'Y'. I hope Iruka-sensei won't do a huge deal over that I'm the new kid' thought the greenette. She removed her glasses for a moment to rub her eyes a little bit.

The class had calmed down, and he had started to call their names. So far, there were only two students who were not present: one had a dentist appointment while the other was ill. Brown eyes looked down at the names; it seemed like most of the students were here. It was 23 names on the list and so far, 17 were present.
"All right...Kazeraikou, Marii Kino?" said Iruka and looked around in the classroom. He looked around; he knew she was new here, but again, the teacher had not been teaching all the students here.
But there were a few who looked familiar; some of the senior girls on the second row looked quite familiar, as well as Kabuto who looked out of the window. The brunett also recognized some junior boys in the back of the room.

The female felt a little excited about this class and hoped it would get started soon. But a voice snapped hr out of her trance. "All right...Kazeraikou, Marii Kino?" said Irukas voice. "Present" said Marii in a polite tone and looked at Kabuto, who looked outside.
'Looks nice outside...I bet it's raining in Kumo at this time of the year' thought the girl and felt a little homesick. Sure, it was great with sunshine and warmth instead of the storms and rain, but she missed it a little. It was a bit odd, but the greenette was used to rain that hit her rainjacket and wind that fluttered trough her hair. But Konoha would be her home for the next five years, so she had to live with it.

"Present" said Mariis voice. Kabuto snapped back to reality; had the teacher comed THAT far at the list!? 'If he is at 'K' now, it will not be long until he gets to 'Y'. I better pay a little attention now' thought the male.
He let out a small yawn and scratched his forehead a little bit while he looked around. Even if he tried to stay awake, he felt a little tired by now and he could not help it; music classes had always been boring for the silver-haired senior.

"Welcome to our class Kazeraikou-san" said Iruka before he continued a little further down on the list. "All right...last, but not least, Yakushi Kabuto" said the male and looked at the silver-haired senior.
When the student had said that he was present, the music lesson would start. "Welcome to the music class. In this class, you are going to pick an instrument and learn how to play it. The instruments are on the blackboard, and the number behind means how many we have" said the brunett and pointed on a list of instrument he had written up.
List:
* Guitar, aucustic (3).
* Guitar, bass (2).
* Drums (1).
* Flute (3).
* Violin (3).
* Piano (1).
* Saxophone (2).
* Trumpet (3).
* Keyboard (1).
* Ocarina (4).
"Please put up your hands and tell me what instrument you want to play. If you already know how to play one of these instrument, you can pick if you want to improve your skills as well.
At the end of this course, you should be able to write a song and perform it in front of the class. You can work in duos or trios at the max if you want to, but nobody has to work more than the rest. I will make sure of that" said the young man and looked at the class.
This would be interesting.

"Welcome to our class Kazeraikou-san" said the teacher before he continued on the name list. Marii smiled; he seemed to be quite nice after all. "And last but not least, Yakushi Kabuto" said the male. When Kabuto had answered, Iruka went on with the class.
"Welcome to the music class. In this class, you are going to pick an instrument and learn how to play it. The instruments are on the blackboard, and the number behind means how many we have" said the brunett and pointed on a list of instrument he had written up.
The female looked on the list. 'I think I will improve my skills on either piano or keyboard...or perhaps my violin ones. I better see what the interest is for the other instruments before I make a decision' thought the greenette.
"Please put up your hands and tell me what instrument you want to play. If you already know how to play one of these instrument, you can pick if you want to improve your skills as well.

Well, that should be interesting! Piano and keyboard could go along with quite a lot of instruments, so that ended her trail of thoughts. It was going to be either piano or keyboard.

Two sapphire orbs scanned the list; he did not had a musical gene in his body whatsoever, so he decided to take the most simple instrument. 'Piano, keyboard, guitar, violin and saxophone are out of question.
I suppose I can take flute or ocarina....and perhaps Marii-chan will let me work on her group' thought Kabuto and glanced on the greenette next to him. He knew that his friend knew how to play piano and a little bit of violin and keyboard.
'Iruka-sensei said that we could work in duos and trios. Piano and flute can work all right together I think...perhaps I should ask Marii-chan if she has any plans. For all I know, she might have decided to work solo' thought the male.
He closed his eyes and tried to decide what to choose. Flute and ocarina were not the hardest instruments to learn how to play, and if he had SOME musical genes in him, the senior would have picked guitar or maybe even saxophone.

Iruka looked at the class; everyone seemed quite excited and were discussing what instrument they should pick. Perhaps it was time to let them pick the instrument they wanted to play?
"When you have decided for instrument, line up in a queue in front of the teacher's desk and tell me what instrument you want to play and why. Please try to make a decent reason for the latter one" said the male before he sat down behind the desk.
He knew that the students would line up in the matter of seconds, but the brunett was prepared for this. It was not the first time he had done this.

'I think I will go for the piano' thought Marii and looked at Kabuto, who seemed to be deep in thought. "When you have decided for instrument, line up in a queue in front of the teacher's desk and tell me what instrument you want to play and why. Please try to make a decent reason for the latter one" said Iruka and sat down behind the desk.
The female leaned a little closer to the male that sat next to her. "Pst, Kabuto, you want to partner up with me? Sorry if I sound rude, but I know that music is not one of your strenghts" said the senior in a low voice. She had thought about partnering up with someone, and since music was not her friends strenght, this opportunity could make his music grade a little better.

"Pst, Kabuto, you want to partner up with me? Sorry if I sound rude, but I know that music is not one of your strenghts" said a low voice. The male turned his head a little bit and looked straight into his friends eyes.
"You're reading my mind Marii-chan. My answer is yes" chuckled Kabuto and looked back at the list. "I was thinking about picking flute or ocarina. How about you? Piano?" asked the young man and raised a silver eyebrow. To partner up with the girl would be a good idea, since she was better than him. "I'm going to line up. You're coming?" asked the silver-haired male before he stood up and looked at her.
Either way, the young man would line up right behind a boy with black hair that seemed to be a young junior.
