An Academy Worksheet

Summary:

Though it had been a while since Iruka had indulged in his pranking proclivities, needs must. No matter that he was fond of his target and the effect she had had on some of the students in his class. In a village where it was a fight to so much as raise the graduating age, he could not set the precedent that people were free to intervene in his classroom without consequences, no matter how mild they may be in this case.

And if he happened to also target the person who not only was a shining example of interfering any and everywhere he pleased but was also Iruka's biggest headache at the mission desk? Well, that was no one's business but his own.

Besides, nothing got his students engaged in work more than cool stories about the ones that came before them.

Work Text:

Team 7 Mixup!

Oh no! There is a giant mess in the Mission Records room! Jonin Hatake Kakashi submitted his mission report 6 weeks late, and while trying to sneak it in without anyone noticing, he mixed up all of his pages with old missions of his students and set off a doodled seal that tore all of the pages apart! Can you help the Mission Desk piece together which ninja carried out which mission?

Instructions

Each shinobi used only one technique and weapon to defeat their target and none of them copied each other. What information we have has been put onto these cards. Use them, along with the few scraps of paper that could be saved, to help the Mission Desk figure out what happened out in the field.

What you already ought to know about how ninja fight

💥

Explosions

Harnessing chakra through a sealing array in such a manner that it explodes when triggered by the user. Suitable for anyone with explosive tags, or a talent in sealing

Leaves clear signs of destruction and burns injuries for those in the blast, as well as light/heat/sound when set off

Ninjutsu

The art of harnessing your internal chakra for external physical effects. Suitable for those with large amounts of chakra and/or fine control over it

Depending on the jutsu used, can have as many varied side effects as can be imagined

Genjutsu

The art of using your chakra to create illusionary effects, either in a target's mind or covering a general area. Effective in basic trickery, can also be used to falsely heighten emotions. Suitable for those with fine chakra control and imagination

Along with confusion, genjutsu can leave physical side effects like sweating, nausea, or accelerated heart rate.

👊🏻

Taijutsu

Physical martial arts, augmented and enhanced by fine control and usage of chakra. Suitable for those with physical stamina, strength, and/or speed

A Closer Look

Details about each weapon

Curry

A bowl of curry that is delicious, for those that can handle it. Said to be so spicy that if eaten it can bring back a person knocked unconscious. Not for those with a sensitive sense of taste

Made from a secret recipe known only to its inventor

Cat Ears

A special set of costume headwear designed to convincingly create and hold onto one specific genjutsu

Knife

A well balanced blade with a sharp edge. Perfect for carving into wood, cutting up vegetables, or for stabbing enemies

🧠

Intellect

The most powerful techniques in the world will fail if aimed in the wrong direction. Thinking before you fight can not only help you win a fight, but win without having to fight at all

Made up of the information gathered and the brainpower and creativity a person has to apply it

Details

This is what the few remain scraps of paper that were salvaged were able to tell us

• While its heart was beating out of it's chest upon arrival, the bunny showed no physical damage
• No shinobi whose target wielded metal fought with metal in return.
• No dog summoner would ever wear cat ears and no shinobi would need to outsmart a bunny.
• Nothing as small as a knife or martial arts could effectively take down the kingpin
• Only Naruto fought someone who wasn't alone.
• The kingpin and thief are too ruthless to let someone eat in the middle of a fight.
• The police would not be okay with explosions, costumes, or physical fighting in their station
• Shikako's report contains a note stating she took advantage of a quirk of shadows.

With the information given to you, use this grid to figure out which shinobi fought which target and what technique and weapon each shinobi employed.

Shikako used __________ and __________ against__________.
Naruto used __________ and __________ against __________.
Sasuke used __________ and __________ against __________.
Kakashi used __________ and __________ against __________.

Notes:

A special thank you to KMichie, who drew the Shikako, Sasuke, Naruto, and Kakashi emoji and allowed me to use them. The Tumblr with KMichie's Dreaming of Sunshine fanart

A second special thank you to wafflelate, who made me aware of the fact that a Murdle work skin was a thing that existed, and also provided some html assistance.

And a final super special thank you to the currently anonymous user who made the Murdle work skin just so that others might use it and also provided further html and css assistance in making the skin function.
