The Clan- Right Of Passage

A four-year-old Y/n was seen and stood out in a field. A Katana sheathed at his side. Despite clearly being too long, as it rested on the floor.

A few members of the Kukuru Unit are standing around. All are balanced on one leg, their katanas unsheathed as they clean them with expertise.

Kukura Unit- a unit of footmen comprised mainly of male Zenins without either aura (or a low amount of it) or those with no semblance.

The leader of the Kukura Unit Stands by, watching the masked Unit of men quietly. His gaze scrutinizing. 

Current leader of the Kukura Unit, Nobukai Zenin -

Nobukai noticed Y/n stood among the group. Grunting, he put on a smile and called the boy over.

Y/n smiled, running past one of the men, knocking into him, as he franticly tried to regain balance.

"Uncle! Uncle!" Y/n called twice. Reaching Nobukai, he smiled up at him.

Nobukai rolled his eyes. 'Uncle' Seemed to be something the young boy had taken to calling all the older male Zenins.

"Y/n." He said formally, rubbing the boy's hair.

The boy beamed up at him, his smile wide. Nobukai pulled his hand away, racing an eyebrow at the weapon attached to the young boy's hip.

"Who gave you that?" He asked, pointing at the weapon.

"Oh! Uncle Junchi gave it to me!" Y/n said, reaching to the hilt, he unsheathed the blade with some difficulty. Revealing the wooden Blade.

"Ah, he gave you one of our training blades." Nobukai nodded.

"Yeah! He said I could have it if I stopped annoying him while he was practicing with the other Kukura!"

"Did he now?" Nobukai had no idea who Junchi was.

"Yeah! And now that I have a blade, I can join you and the Kukura!"He said happily, raising the weapon up and pointing it up at the sky.

Nobukai scoffed, shaking his head. "You don't want to be one of us, kid."

"What do you mean?" He asked, bringing his weapon down.

"Well..." Nobukai began, crossing his arms. "Kukura aren't seen in a very... Positive light, from the heads."

"Why?"

"Because, "He raised a hand, "We are seen as less than the other members of the clan."

"Why?"

"Because we have little to no aura."

"Wh-"

"Before you ask, no one knows why we have less aura than them." He cut the boy off. Before shaking his head.
