Neji glanced around the room, no new students.
Not like he expected any.
He sat next to, quite possibly, his only friend.
Tenten.
"Hey, Twenty."
She glanced at him, a small smile on her face.
"Aren't you excited? We're graduating today!"
"There's too many students."
"Huh?"
"One team is going to have four ninjas. Not three."
Tenten looked around, her eyes scanning the room.
"I uh, can't tell that fast."
Neji smirked, closing his eyes.
"Didn't think you could."
She raised an expectant eyebrow, warning him to say nothing more.
Neji was smart enough to keep his mouth shut.
"Well, hello class!"
"Iruka."
Iruka scratched the back of his head, a small smile on his face.
"Still polite I see."
"As always, still soft I see."
Iruka sighed, shaking his head at his pupil.
"Really gonna miss you, you know?"
Neji offered a small smile, which was rare from the Hyuuga.
"I'll be sure to visit."
That was just Neji's way of saying he was gonna miss him too.
"Well, first you guys have to take a test, I told you guys that, right?"
Tenten gulped besides Neji, lowering her head.
"Didn't study, huh?"
"Uh, nope."
He sighed looking into her panic stricken eyes.
"You can copy mine, I guess. Just don't make it obvious."
"Really?!"
"Yes."
"Oh thank you, Neji!"
She launched herself at him, knocking him down and hugging him.
"Tenten. Get off."
"Oh thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!"
"You can thank me by getting off!"
Valora glanced over at them, shooting Neji a victorious smirk, causing him to blush in anger.
Valora was not better then him, and she needed to stop acting like she was.
Finally, he pushed Tenten off of him, glancing down at his teacher.
"Continue."
"Uh, ok. It shouldn't be too hard if you studied, good luck, guys."
He had the students line up and walk into the room with many other students from different classes waiting.
After a teacher Neji didn't recongize gave a speech about cheating they were allowed to start their test.
"Stop smiling and do a good job of making it look like you're doing your own work."
Neji finished the test within ten mintues, glancing around the room.
Valora had just finished her test, and the boy behind her(Sasuke, was it?) was done too.
Had he copied? But how could he.
Then Neji noted his sharingan, ah.
He had copied her pencil movements.
Valora looked back at Sasuke and smiled, he replied with a smirk and a mouthed 'thank-you.'
She had let him copy, how sweet.
Tenten finished with some pencil tapping and a faked, 'Ahh' face before turning over her test and grinning.
Neji went back to looking around when he saw his cousin next to Naruto.
She was blushing and letting him copy.
'Bad Hinata.' He mouthed to her and she pouted.
'Sorry.'
"It's not like you can talk, Neji."
He turned to Tenten, his glare now focused on his friend.
"Huh?"
"You let me copy."
"Shh!"
Tenten smirked, raising an eyebrow.
"Aww, is wittle Neji scared?"
"Ten-"
"TIME IS UP."
Naruto sent Hinata a thankful smile, and Neji sighed, finally relaxing.
He hoped he got everything right, he didn't want to let Tenten down.
"Ok, guys. Everyone passed."
Did they even grade the... not important, he passed.
"We're going to tell you what teams you guys are in, okay?"
"Okay."
"First team, Kurenai!"
Kurenai walked up, a beautiful women with red eyes.
"Hello, everyone."
She seemed sweet, but Neji wanted a tougher Sensei.
Like Kakashi, or Asuma.
God forbid he would get Guy.
"Kurenai, you're students are: Hinata Hyuuga."
As she walked down the asile, Neji frowned.
"Good luck," he whispered and she nodded with a smile.
"Kiba Inuzuka."
When the boy walked down he frowned, petting his dog.
"And Akamaru!"
"Yes, and the dog."
"His name is Akamaru."
The man in the front rolled his eyes, continuing to read his paper.
"And Shino Aburame!"
Shino walked down, sunglasses on and an emotionless expression.
Neji decided he liked Shino.
"Next is team Asuma!"
One of the sensei's Neji wanted, he sat up straighter.
"On Asuma's team there is Ino Yamanaka."
Now he wasn't so sure he wanted to be on that team.
There was still Kakashi, though.
"Shikamaru Nara."
They walked up, Ino floating down and shooting hopeful smiles at Sasuke.
Shikamaru just.. dragged himself.
"And Choji Akimichi!"
Neji let out a sigh of relief, happy that he didn't have to deal with them.
"Next is Team Guy!"
Neji leaned back in his chair, rolling his eyes.
"First is Rock Lee!"
They were like father and son, so that was expected.
"Tenten Hamaichi!"
Neji felt his throat swell up.
If there was anyone who he didn't want to be his sensei, it was Guy.
But he wanted Tenten on his team, too.
"And Neji Hyuuga!"
Neji stood up, walking down the asile with a glare present on his face.
But Tenten grabbed his hand and grinned and it softened.
"Next is team Kakashi!"
Don't let Naruto be on that team.
"First is Sakura Haruno!"
The pink haired girl floated down, smiling at her new sensei who gave her a small smile.
"Second is Naruto Uzamaki!"
Neji sighed, glaring at the blonde-haired idiot.
Naruto jumped down the slope, smiling at Sakura.
"Third is Sasuke Uchiha."
Neji knew Sasuke was going to be on that team, he deserved it, certainly.
"And fourth," well, Neji knew there were too many people.
"is Valora!"
Great, Valora was on the team he wanted.
The next moments went by in a blur, when finally, Neji widened his eyes.
There was something wrong when they called down Valora.
They never mentioned her last name.
