I stayed in the clinic for about two weeks. Almost every day Ino & Might Guy would visit me. Ino would occasionally bring by her friends; Sakura, Choji, Naruto, Tenten, & Shikamaru. I found Shikamaru to be the best company. He was laid-back as hell, but he was good at conversation.

On my last day, I rolled off of my bed, and walked outside. I got to go outside for the first time. "Kenji," I heard a voice call me. I turned around, and got glomped on either side.

"Agh," I grunted.

"O did we hurt you?" Sakura asked.

"If we did, it was all her fault," Ino replied.

"Yeah, what she said," Hinata added.

"Come with me, we're gonna see Lady Tsunade," Sakura said.

"Uh, no thank you Sakura," I told her, "I was going to go with Shikamaru to get a lay of the land."

"But how can you see it?" Sakura asked. Instantly she knew she said the wrong thing. I yanked her off of me. I gently peeled Hinata & Ino off me, and then I ran.

When I felt I was far away enough, I slowed my pace to a walk. I heard fighting so I walked toward it.

"Hey Kenji," I heard Neji call.

"Come on over," Tenten yelled.

I began to walk in the direction of their voices, but Rock Lee's voice stopped me.

"I don't think so," he stepped in my way.

"Hey uh Lee," Neji tried to cut in.

"No Neji. This is strictly Team Guy training," Lee spat back.

"Dude, Emi's here, lighten up," Tenten replied.

"No, she's here because she can fight, this weak blind bitch can't do anything, how he's a Jonin, I have no idea."

"ROCK LEE!" Neji & Tenten screamed at the same time.

"No, no, it's okay; do you want me to prove to you why I'm a Jonin?" I asked.

"Heh, I like to see you try," He scoffed.

"Taijutsu?" he asked.

"You know it," I spat back

He charged me. I charged him. Our fight began.
