Contest 1

A/N: well, may I present to you, Contest, my first narusasu fic. Coz narusasu is hot.

WARNING: Narusasu. I love yaoi! Maybe some violence, angst, all that jazz. Implied attempted murder.

DISCLAIMER: the day I own Naruto is the day of the apocalypse. And since my house is still standing and I'm still alive, it's obvious that I don't own Naruto. (What a complete and utter shame)

Well onto the show...

"G-get away from me" a five year old Uzumaki Naruto yelled, stumbling around a corner.

"Get back here brat!" The drunk man yelled, stumbling after the young blond. The man, whose name was unknown, cornered the blonde in an deserted ally.

"Stop, please, just stop" the blond choked out, backing up against the wall.

The drunk man chuckled, taking out a knife "no, I don't think I will"

And as the knife came down, Naruto had never been as scared for his life.

Naruto looked up at the three staring faces in front of him, equal measures of awe and pity evident on their faces. The blond haired boy grimaced and looked down, he didn't want their pity, he wanted their cooperation.

The blond had just finished telling his group mates about his background and the many attempts on his life by stumbling drunken fools, when the buzzer rang, and the grand hall became a battle ground.

It was group against group as they struggled to get to the top floor, where their transportation was.

The eighteen year old followed his three other team members out of the elegant hall and turned left, into an equally lavish corridor, jumping back a few feet when a glinting blade descended from the ceiling and slammed down right in front of him with a huge thwack.

I shifted my weight on my front foot, and launched myself at the guillotine like blade and jumped over it, pressing into it with my hand to give me a little more momentum. I was immediately yanked into a warm, hard body and my eyes widened in terror. I thought that I had somehow gotten separated from my group, and was about to be killed. The rules were practically non existent, the only rule being that you had to bring back the 'power' to the mansion when you found it; so killing was allowed, even this early in the game.

I relaxed, when two of my teammates. Neji, a boy with long brown hair, pale eyes, and a snotty disposition. Kiba, a brunette with short, shaggy brown hair, and tribal tattoos on his cheeks, and a large dog. Shikamaru was behind me. He had black hair pulled up onto the top of his head and shaped like a pineapple, and was really lazy. I twisted back and stared into Shikamaru's hard black eyes and I knew, we were gonna have to kill. A group of four was rounding the hallway.

After we had disposed of the other team, we continued onward, jumping away from many traps, and killing many D ranked Demons. D ranked Demons are the lowest order of Demon, A being the highest, and S being in another category completely.

By this time, we were on one of the upper floors, fifth I think. It was a battle to see who could get to the sixth floor first, to our transportation. The way this game works is that you start at the bottom and work your way up, to what we call the transportation room. Not very original, I know. The first people to get there get to pick there mode of transportation. The choices range from bicycles, to vans, and even helicopters. Those who get up last have to pick from what other teams didn't want, and often get no transportation at all. We ran up the slightly tilted hall, and stoped dead in our tracks.

It was eerily quiet now, dead silent except fog the hiss of the C ranked spider Demon guarding a set of stairs. It was the highest ranked Demon we had faced so far. Each set of stairs were marked with a red cloud pattern and a number. The number was five

Usually I would be more vivacious and outgoing, but there was no room for that now, nothing else mattered. Nothing except the task.

The demon swung it's head and looked right at Naruto, rubbing two front legs together and putting them up to its mouth. It blew. Countless thick strings of spider thread struck the wall where the blonde was just seconds ago, pulled out of the way by a cursing Kiba.

"Watch it blondie" the tattooed brunette warned, just as he and his dog leapt. The spider lifted one spindly led and smacked the dog outta the way, it landed on the floor with a crunch and a yelp. Kiba on the other hand twisted in mid air, avoiding the blow and landed a solid punch to one of its glowing green eyes.

"That's for Akamaru! He yelled before jumping back to the ground before running to his injured dog.

I grinned and slid a kunai out of my pouch, holding it back handed and swiping it across the demons face and watching as a mess if black blood oozed out.

Suddenly I felt a flare of chakra and black tendrils spread out from where Shikamaru was standing. I heard him yell Shadow Strangle Jutsu and those thin wisps of shadow contracted around the spider and it exploded, the remaining pieces of the spider sizzling and evaporating.

I looked at Shikamaru and I gave him a grin of triumph and he smirked.

As we picked up Akamaru and made our way up stairs to the transport room, I couldn't help smile.

A/N: OMFG I wrote something! So this is supposed to be more of a teaser/epilogue chapter, if you like it please be sure to drop a review telling me what you liked, constructed criticism is also appreciated. Also, check out some of my other fics, I'm working on updating them slowly (very very slowly)

UPDATE: I changed the ending. I fucking loathed it!

UPDATE: I changed a bit of the stuff. Yup, stuff. I made the storyline and plot a bit clearer.
