Action/ Adventure rated T for some violence and a little language in later chapters.

Story involves my Original Character and later two more (if I have time)

Legal stuff: I don't own Naruto or any of its characters also I would like to thank my friends abroad for helping to inspire me. Enjoy!

Summary: This is set during the second possible Chuunin Exam, you know the final part with the prelims and main matches that's about all I can say without ruining the surprise.

Please review I need feed back!

Mysterious Competition

"The first preliminary match for the Chuunin exam final test is Asano vs. Tenten."

"Let's go Tenten." Rock Lee shouted as the short Mickey Mouse haired ninja leapt down into the arena.

"Don't worry Lee I can handle Straight jacket boy over there no problem," the young weapons master shouted back.

"This is going to be easy. I could take her with my eyes closed." At this the bound boy started laughing at the seemingly inside joke.

"Asano, don't play with her to much. We want to get out of here as soon as possible." The man who spoke was unknown to Naruto but something about him seemed familiar.

"Fine. You take all the fun out of hurting people sometimes." Suddenly he jumped up over the railing on the edge of his part of the walkway and landed with a small thud on the ground below.

"Now that we're all here I think we can begin the fight. Begin." The instructor retreated away from the calm area in the middle of the battleground.

Tenten began the fight by pulling out one of her weapon scrolls and summoning a large wooden staff from it. She lunged forward and swung the staff at her opponent with a strength that seemed uncharacteristic of someone so small. Unfortunately her opponent was to fast and dodged the attack and sprung about15 feet away.

"That was unexpectedly close. It seems I shall have to end this in a different fashion than the one I had planned." The stranger, called Asano seemed to split in two and the edges of his body that defined his existence seemed to blur with speed. Naruto understood this from many hours of high speed training with Fuzzybrows.

"Fuzzybrows he's fast. Maybe faster than you."

"No Naruto you should know by now the difference between what your eyes tell you and reality. He is not really moving at all that is a genjutsu." Now that Naruto looked closer he could see that the now many speed copies were indeed fake.

"Very good Lee."

"Thank you Guy-sensei."

Out of the blue everyone was brought to their senses by a very loud crack that came from the middle of the arena. When Naruto looked to the source of the crack he could see dust settling and the figure of Asano with one leg resting on the top of a much shorter looking Tenten.

A medical team rushed in and Guy leapt down from the walkway to aid his now obviously wounded student.

The instructor now reappeared and Naruto wondered what was going to happen. "We will now take a short break to remove the wounded." By this time Asano was back at his post by his sensei's side. A moment later he walked up to Naruto and formally introduced himself.

"Hello, my name as you heard is Asano. I was ordered to come over here and make small talk."

"I'm Uzumaki Naruto. What happened down there? One minute your genjutsu was twirling around Tenten and then your foot is smashed on her skull."

"I too would like to know what happened. I am Rock Lee Tenten's teammate. What did you do to her?"

"Perhaps I should start at the beginning. I assume you heard my little conversation with my sensei before the battle. Well, that was actually a distraction for the genjutsu to start."

"What! It started then? Not even Guy-sensei noticed it!"

"Yes, it is a carefully planned maneuver. I don't blame him for missing it." The young gennin stated matter-of-factly. "Anyway, that genjutsu allowed the illusion me to jump down to the arena and the real me to hide on the ceiling. The rest of the battle was a projected image except for Tenten's actions. But she played along nicely. When I heard you talking about noticing my illusion I knew I had to end it quickly. That is when I simply dropped from the ceiling and did a multi-rotational spin kick that landed on the girls head. In case you were wondering she'll be fine in 2 days with some back pain for a few months."

"Asano your headband slipped down over your eyes. It must have been during the spin kick. I'll fix it for you."

"I would appreciate it if you didn't touch that. And no. It is always like that. Another limitation, just like the jacket." Naruto swore that he saw a smile swiftly cross Asano's face.

"One quick question. How old are you that tour skills require such boundaries?" Lee inquired of the mysterious ninja before them.

"As of yesterday I am 10 1\2 years old. But that is unimportant the next match is about to start. Something tells me that you are going to need to get ready Lee."

With that Asano calmly left Naruto and Lee's part of the walkway and the lottery like process of selecting the next match began.
