_-Chapter 3-_
Genin

The fight between Ino and Karena had begun quickly. Ino charged at Karena with full speed, Karena had to give her some credit, she had guts. Ino was trying her best to win.

'I must not lose! Not after she just did that for me. It gives me a second chance! I won't lose to her!' Ino thought to herself.

"It's too late." Karena says as she suddenly appeared behind her and hit the back of her neck with her hand. Ino quickly fell to the ground again. Karena sighed and jumped back, sooner or later she would get back up, and it wouldn't be that difficult for her.

Ino got up slowly; she was close to becoming paralyzed.

Karena smirked at her, "Do you want to see power, Ino?"

Ino looked at her, her eyes wide with fear.

Karena smirked and started to do a dozen hand signs at a lighting fast speed.

"Water dragon missile jutsu!" Karena yelled.

'Karena! You idiot that's too strong for the people here!' Aiko thought quickly to her as she was about to yell, but that would look really bad for them.

'It's too late Aiko…' Karena thought as the dragon sprang from the ground and started to attack Ino. She couldn't move; her fear had paralyzed her.

The dragon hit her head on and she was knocked back against the wall. Everyone had become freighted by her power; she realized this and stopped her attack from going any farther. The water had dropped to the ground and became lifeless.

'I guess I was getting carried away…I can't let that happen again.' She thought to herself as Iruka ran over to her and checked for any serious injury.

Karena walked over as well, she really hit her hard… Bruises were already starting to form, and little cuts from the razor sharp water covered her body in some areas.

Karena sits down next to her and starts to do some hand signs. "I'm sorry Ino…"

Her hands glow a light green color as she places them on Ino's body and starts to heal her rather swiftly. Ino's breathing began to slow down a little bit; Karena sighed, she was helping her. Karena continues with the rest of her body until every part is healed again. The only things that she wasn't really able to heal were the slightly deep bruises.

Ino stands up slowly, some of the girls helping her to her seat. Ino looks over at Karena. "Wow Karena, you're really strong."

Karena looks away and runs to her sisters. They start mentally scolding her about how dangerous that might have been for them. Talk about being kicked out of the village on the first day here.

A lot of the guys came around Karena and her sisters and started to comment on how well they did. Were they all really that stupid? Karena almost killed Ino for goodness sakes! Still, they were stupid in a way; she couldn't really do anything about them… Karena stood on her tippy toes and looked around. She saw the Uchiha surrounded many of the girls. They were all trying to talk to him, saying things of concern and complimenting him on his battle, saying that Mae had just caught him off guard. The thing was; he really wasn't paying attention to them.

"Karena, Aiko, let's go." Mae says as she starts to walk up the stairs to her seat.

Everyone took their seats and started to chat quickly. Karena wasn't really talked to much; she stared out the window that was beside her. Sakura had left her seat to go and talk with the Uchiha, she was obsessive. Karena pondered the possibilities she could have here, but what if they were all because of what she had just done? Would they be afraid of her like the rest of the world was…?

"All right everyone," Iruka said as he quieted them down. "We're also going to be doing the transformation jutsu. Just make a doppelganger that looks like me. I will call your name, so come down and perform the jutsu."

Almost every person groans.

"Alright, first up is Ino."

Ino comes up to the front of the room and makes a single hand sign. The in a puff of smoke she was gone and in her place was Iruka.

Iruka nods his head in approval, he noticed some minor details, but that was about it. He calls the next person, "Sakura."

Sakura came up to the front and transformed into Iruka as well, hers was in better form.

She squeals in delight, knowing that she did better than Ino. She runs up to the Uchiha quickly and starts to compliment herself.

"Sasuke."

He stands up, ignoring her high complements to herself. He stares at the sisters, jolting his eyes back from one girl to the other.

'Something about those three sisters…' he thinks as he passes down and stands in front of the class. He transforms into Iruka with no problem at all and quickly walks back up to his seat.

Iruka sighed, "Naruto, it's your turn."

Naruto adjusts his headband as he heard comments from most of the classmates about that it was his entire fault that they had to do this.

He shrugged them off and got to the bottom of the stairs. He thought of something and quickly smirked.

"Here goes nothing!" Chakra swirls around his body as he begins to transform.

The clouds form around his body as his body is changed, but instead of Iruka, it was a completely naked girl.

Iruka just stares, his hormones soared and it ended up with him having a bloody nose. He was blown backwards.

Karena sighed and looked back out the window. Soon hearing yelling in her ears, she tried to block them out. She closed her eyes and her mind take her somewhere else, this place might not have that much in store for her…if shinobi in training were creating jutsu's like this, what of the rest of them? Were they all so immature?

"Karena, it's your turn."

She turns her head and looks at Iruka bored like. She sighs and stands up and walks to the front of the classroom. She puts her hands together and concentrates the slightest bit. Transformation jutsu's were not the hardest things that she has had to conjure before.

In her place was a perfect replica of Iruka. He was a little bit taken back; this was the third time that he had seen a perfect replication of himself. Mae and Aiko were the other two that were identical to him. He didn't see anything out of place.

"Well, we have a talented one in our academy." Iruka exclaims as he marks it on his clipboard.

Karena walks back to her seat quietly while people began to talk about her. She pushed the thoughts out of her mind, trying to get over the obsessions of the class with her and her sisters.

She sits quietly and is suddenly attacked one of the people sitting next to her; it was the blonde idiot Naruto.

"That was amazing!" he exclaims, "I've never seen anything like that so perfect!"

She looks down and feels a little bit good about herself. She whispers, "Thank you."

They were all dismissed; it was the end of the day. Mae, Aiko and Karena all got together and headed off towards their home.

****

The next day was the final exams. Mae, Aiko and Karena had gotten their hitaiates. They had passed the exam with flying colors. But when they got outside, they all lowered their heads instead of holding them up high.

Everywhere, voices were heard from the parents of the other shinobi that had passed. Saying things like, "Congratulations, I'm so proud of you," or, "Your father is proud."

They stooped out of the crowd of parents and still said nothing about anything. They knew they had no parents, Mae was the closest to age; she was their parents practically.

"They're all so annoying…" Aiko whispers to the two of them as she looks back at them.

"They aren't annoying; they just have parents; that's all." Karena says back, she knew that if she were one of them and one of them were her at this current moment, she would want that person to say the same thing about her. She knew that they weren't exactly grateful to have the parents that they had, they didn't know what it was like, but that couldn't be helped.

Karena looked over; Naruto was sitting on the swing, depressed. Karena sighed, she knew that it wasn't because of the fact that he had failed his exams…it was something else.

"Mae…does Naruto not have any parents either?" she asked her sister before she could leave.

Mae looked back at Naruto with a serious face and peered into his mind, it was full of chaos, but she found the spot of his mind that had his past. He had none, no parents at all through his whole life. Almost exactly like them…

They read her thoughts and looked over at him with a sincere look; they felt only the slightest bad.

"Come on, let's go…" Mae says as she jumps from the sight, she had disappeared from everyone's view.

Aiko follows quickly.

Karena looks back at Naruto one last time before she turns and follows her sisters. Her sympathetic side surprised her, she wasn't normally like this. She shook her head and looked back at the kids with the parents. They were laughing and being congratulated still. She was slightly…jealous was it?

She didn't know, she sighed and disappeared.
