Scene 1: Academy — Afternoon
Iruka, Shino, and Anko sit around a messy table stacked with student rosters.
Shino is shivering like he's inside a freezer.
Shino:
“This year’s… this year’s roster… Iruka… this is not a class. This is DEMISE. This is DOOM.”
Anko:
“Relax… probably just kids. Worst they can do is burn down a building.”
Iruka:
“Besides, Naruto and Sasuke’s children are here, so—”
Shino snatches one folder.
Looks at it.
Freezes.
Shino (SCREAMS):
“WHAT THE HELL DO WE TEACH A HYUGA CLAN LEADER?!”
He SLAMS Yuta’s file on the table.
Shino:
“WHY IS A CLAN HEAD JOINING SCHOOL??? WHY IS HE COMPETING??? WHAT DO I TEACH HIM? 1 + 2 = 3??”
Anko (nodding):
“Valid crash-out. I respect it.”
Shino reaches for another file like a man being dragged to hell.
He opens it.
Sees Aira.

And EXPLODES.
Shino:
“THIS—THIS GIRL IS THE QUEEN OF THE ENTIRE ōTSUTSUKI RACE!!! ONE KAGUYA ALMOST DESTROYED US AND NOW WE TEACH THE QUEEN???”
Shino (slamming table):
“WHAT DO I TEACH HER?! HOW TO HOLD A PENCIL???”
Iruka tries to hold him down.
Iruka:
“Shino, breathe—”
Shino:
“I’M TRYING BUT THE QUEEN OF THE ōTSUTSUKI IS IN CLASS 1-A—”
Anko:
“Next year’s class is gonna be the most messed-up class in shinobi history.”
Shino tries to stand and crash out again.
Iruka literally tackles him.
Scene 2: Bar — Later That Night
Iruka and Konohamaru sit with drinks.
Iruka looks exhausted, slumped over a sake cup.
Iruka:
“I’m MAD. Every kid coming next year… ANY ONE OF THEM can destroy Konoha. Before, I only had to watch Naruto and Sasuke… but now… now—”
He lifts his fingers one by one.
Iruka:
“Yuta.
Ryouta.
Sarada.
Eida.
Aira—”
Konohamaru GRABS his hand.
Konohamaru:
“Woah, woah. Sensei. Listen.”
Iruka blinks at him.
Konohamaru:
“What’s your job?”
Iruka:
“To teach the new generation… and keep teachers under control.”
Konohamaru:
“Right.
When my grandpa’s face got defaced—Yuta didn’t mock me.
He told me to make my own name.”
He smacks his chest.
Konohamaru:
“I’m doing more A-rank missions than my entire squad. I’m about to upgrade to S-rank. Because a KID believed in me.”
Iruka looks down.
Konohamaru:
“So what if these kids can kill the world? If YOU guide them right… they won’t.”
Iruka smiles slowly.
Iruka:
“Then… that’ll be my life’s fulfillment.”
They clink their cups.
Scene 3: Hyuga Clan — Evening
Masio, Yuta’s right-hand man, rushes in nervously.
Masio:
“You really want to do this? Attend school?”
Yuta:
“Yeah. I wanna meet the next generation of Hyūgas properly.”
Masio’s eyes water instantly.
Masio:
“Do I… have to wear that seal? The same one Hizashi wore? I’m a low branch—”
Yuta (confused):
“Why would I put that on you? You didn’t do anything wrong.”
He pats Masio’s shoulder.
Yuta:
“You’re like… my Grandpa Hiashi. Sure, I… accidentally got him jailed—BUT STILL.
I can’t harm you or your family.”
Masio BREAKS DOWN crying and hugs Yuta like a baby.
Yuta (panicking):
“Jeez—don’t cry—stop—
I don’t know how to make adults stop crying!!”
Scene 4: Moon Temple — Same Time
Aira is PACKING like she’s going on a picnic.
Spinning, dancing, whistling, throwing books into her bag.
Servants prepare tomorrow’s ingredients like they’re prepping for doomsday.
Toneri walks in.
Toneri:
“My Queen… why are you… happy? And why does it look like you’re packing for a picnic?”
Aira (glowing smile):
“No picnic!
I’m going to SCHOOL with Yuta and everyone!”
Toneri stares.
Then unleashes the longest scream in the Otsutsuki la
nguage:
Toneri:
“HUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH—”
The Moon echoes.
