Chapter 2

On the way to Camp Hall, everyone seemed to be walking in a group, but all in separate clusters based on cabins. Tenten and Hinata took this chance to get know Rio a little better.

"So Rio," Tenten started, gaining the red-headed girl's attention. "What sort of things do you like to do?" Tenten asked.

"Um, well, I do gymnastics. I'm not terribly good at it though." She stated.

"Sure you are!" Tenten shouted. "C'mon, show us one of your tricks." Rio looked to Hinata to see if she agreed with Tenten. She seemed to look as interested as the other girl. The brightly colored-haired girl sighed and gave a light shrug. She then proceeded to run ahead of the two and preformed a round-off, into a backhand-spring, that was then followed by a back tuck. All the other campers' attention was caught after she preformed this trick. Tenten, Hinata, and all the others immediately started running up to her.

"I THOUGHT YOU SAID YOU WERE BAD AT THIS!" Tenten shouted. Rio stared at her with a light smile and gave another shrug.

"Where did you learn to do that?" Kiba asked, slightly interested than the rest.

"She's a gymnast." Hinata answered his question.

"THAT'S SO COOL!" Naruto shouted (duh), "DO ANOTHER TRICK!"

"Fine." Rio said. She then proceeded to do front and back walkovers for the rest of the way to Camp Hall. Everyone was in awe, especially Kiba.

Shikamaru nudged Kiba in the shoulder, taking him out of his trance, "We all stopped staring awhile ago. Why are you still looking at her?" A smirk was than brought onto the pineapple's face when he realized what was happening. "You have the hot's for Rio, don't you?" He said mischievously.

"Pffft, nooo, what're you talking about? You're insane, pineapple man." Shikamaru continued to smirk at his friend.

"If you say so. I wont try to get it out of you because it would be too much of a drag." He stated. Kiba just sighed, as the pineapple began to walk off.

15 minutes and many walkovers later

"Alright! Is everyone ready for the first evaluation?" Tsunade asked loudly. Everyone shouted in reply. "Ok. The first evaluation is to see if you are to go into the forest alone in pairs, or with one of the counselors." Just then, the campers looked to counselors, who gave them all a cheeky grin. All of the teens sweat-dropped at the sight.

"Alright the pairs for the evaluation are: Sasuke and Sakura, Naruto and Hinata, Neji and Tenten, Shikamaru and Ino, Kiba and Rio, and with a group of three, Lee, Shino, and Choji. Now get together with your partner." All the campers did as they were told and got together with their partner(s), giving high fives to each other as they got there. "Alright, this is how this evaluation is going to work: As you can see, you will do this in pairs. As soon as I finish my explanation, the counselors will give you a flashlight and a map of the forest. Most of you know that there are artifacts and monuments in the forest. All of these objects and shrines will be on the map. So you're main objective is to get out of the forest with everyone in that group." Tsunade paused for a second. "Alive." She finished sarcastically. Everyone thought she was serious and was scared, - especially Rio- but soon realized she was kidding when she started laughing and laughed with her. Rio was still scared but Kiba (Kiba to the rescue!) came to comfort her.

"But, like I said, getting out of the forest was your main objective. As well as this is your first evaluation, this is also your first camp activity." Everyone cheered at the sound of that. "So along the trails, there are different objects that can be picked up. On the map you are about to receive, there is a key showing the objects and the amount of points they are worth. When and if you come out of the forest on time, we will tally up your points. I will explain more on the camp point system when everyone returns from the forest. Now go and get the things you need for the forest and find your assigned color's starting line." Everyone did as they were told and were also given colored headbands with the camp logo. Everyone wrapped them around where they wanted it, but some were a bit confused as to why they needed the headbands.

"Oh I forgot to explain what the headbands are used for. The teams are based off of the colors of the headbands you have. If you spot a another team, you can try to take their objects." Tsunade said, through a loud speaker.

Everyone proceeded with their flashlights, headbands, and maps and went to their individual starting lines.

"Alright everyone you have one hour to get to the other side of the forest. Good luck! I will now turn it over to Counselor Kakashi." She said. Everyone cheered when the heard the counselor's name.

Kakashi took the loud speaker from Tsunade, and signaled the start of the evaluation/race/activity. "On your mark, get set, go…ogle." Some people started but came back as soon as they realized what Kakashi did. "Well wasn't that funny?" Kakashi said, scratching the back of his head. "Alright for real this time. On your mark, get set, GO!" Everyone raced through the forest and went through their assigned trails.

A/N: Yay! We got to meet Rio a little bit! Sorry for the short chapter again :( . Ok so this is how the next few chapter are going to work: I'm going to go through each chapter for each team, and explain how their little evaluation went. So the first pair is going to be Sasuke and Sakura (boy that'll be fun to write *winks to readers*) :) Cya!
