The person turned around. Arashi! Is that really you? Arashi rushed at Kazama with his fists aflame. Kazama pulled some shurikens and threw them at Arashi. Arashi dodged them with ease. He then pulled a kunai and when Arashi got close enough, Kazama slashed. Arashi dodged and attacked with a flurry of fire punches.
Kazama dodged. He flipped back giving Arashi enough time to pull his own kunai. Arashi rushed in and they attacked. From a distance, all you could hear was the clashing of kunai. They stopped abruptly and were breathing heavily. I see you still got it, said Kazama. Seems like you lost a little of your's, said Arashi. Ha, Ha, Very funny. Still as smart mouthed as ever.
The two put their weapons away. Long time no see man. Where've you been? Long story. I got time. We'll, Ive been living with my mom just outside of Konoha with my brother ever since my father died. She left because she didn't want me to become a shinobi and end up like my father. But my father's fighting genes must run in the family because my brother and I trained whenever we got the chance. Then my mom was murdered by a rouge ninja. Sorry to hear that man. It's alright, but whenever I find out who did it, It'll be hell to pay.
I hope it wasn't my brother he thought to himself. Hey! Arashi! Lee was calling from afar. Gai sensei says he has something important to tell us. I' ll be there in a second. See ya later Kazama. We got a lot to catch up on man. They went their separate ways.For a little while Arashi thought back to where he first met Kazama.
Kazama found him in a corner sitting by himself. He said, " hey kid, what's the matter? Why are you all by yourself?" Arashi didn't respond.What's the matter, cat got your tounge? What do you want?" Whoa, somebody woke up on the right side of the bed this morning!" siad the young Kazama sarcastically. Or was it the left? Do you want anything? Geez man, take the stick out! Can't a guy have a conversation with someone? Sorry I'm having a bad life. Well don't take it out on me! I said sorry! Don't worry about it, everybody has their days.
Back in reality; Alright everyone, listen up! I have just been informed that the village of Konoha will be holding the next Chunin Exams. Chunin Exams?! said Tenten. You're repeating me, scolded Gai sensei. What's a Chunin Exam?, said Arashi. It's an exam that is used to promote genin to chunin. Here are your registration papers, DON'T LOSE THEM! I've already recommened all four of you to participate. If you wish to take part, return with those papers in a week from today.This exam will test your limits as a genin physically and mentally. Be sure you are ready before you return.
The day when you return is the last chance to back out. Well I'm not backing down, said Lee. I'll show everyone how much of a great shinobi I am! Our team's the best, there's no way we'll lose, said Tenten. A week has past since then and the team has arrived at the building. Wow, look at all the genin, said Tenten.
