You're on a mountain. Fighting back ninja after ninja. Being free, and living your life to the fullest. You are..."Wake up!"...sleeping? You wake up to find that your brother is shaking you violently.
"Stop! I'm awake," you tell your brother.
"Oh, I didn't notice," your brother says. He is usually like that. Rushing to do something and not noticing he's finished until someone tells him. You notice his grin is really big.
"Why are you smiling like that?" You ask.
"Wow, did you forget for real? It's your birthday today!" Your brother exclaims. You totally forgot. And since you live in the Hidden Sky Village, you get to finally take the Dive. This day is going to be one you will remember forever. You and your brother get out of your bedroom and walk into the kitchen. By the way things smell, you know that your mom is cooking all of your favorites.
"So, you finally woke up. And just in time to for breakfast to be ready." Your mom says. You can see all of the food has already been put on plates at the table. Cooked geese, fresh bread, and lots of juicy looking fruits. This is truly a feast. You see that your sister has just finished eating, and is heading out to teach at the Ninja School. Once she is at the door, she waves at you and says "Happy Birthday." Your sister is usually like that. Quite distant, and keeping to herself.
You then dig into the feast on the table. The geese is cooked to perfection, and the bread is crunchy, just the way you like it. While eating, your mom asks, "So, are you ready for the Dive?"
"Yes mom, I know what to do and how to do it." You reply.
"Just making sure. I don't want you to die." Your mom says.
"What's the Dive?" Your brother asks.
"Oh yeah, you don't know what it is," You say, "The Dive is when we jump off our floating city, and use our Nature Manipulation to slowly push more and more wind outwards from your body, until you are hovering in the air. Then, you can travel to a city, get taught some new skills while improving your original skills. You then launch yourself from the highest elevation closest to you, and make your way back to the city. It helps us keep update with the world below us, and enlarge our skill options."
"Wow, looks like you are going on your on little adventure. That's so cool! I can't wait till I am 14 like you." Your brother exclaims.
"Well, I better get going." You say.
"Just be careful out there." Your mom says.
You leave your house and take one last look at it. It's going to be a while till you see the house again. Although it's not a mansion, it's not a shack either. It's a normal house, for a normal ninja family. Finally, you turn away and walk to the center of the city. That's where you will drop into the air. Most of your friends will be there, and maybe even dad will show up. He has been busy
with politics these days. But the Dive is going to happen in about 40 minutes. You have time to do some more things. But you can only focus on one thing. What will it be?
A: Go to the weapon store and stock up on things you might need.
B: Try to find your dad.
C: Train on Wind control.
D: Train on the basics.
E: Find some of your friends and hang out.
